<br />thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, pay the Association no less than the
<br />delinquent amount.
<br />If at the end of such thirty (30) day period the Owner has not paid the amount due to the
<br />Association, interest will be added to the delinquent amount at an annual rate equal to the
<br />maximum legal rate or three percent (3%) above prime as reported in the Wall Street
<br />Journal, whichever is bwer. The rate will be adjusted annually on the anniversary date of
<br />said nonce of delinquency.
<br />The Owner will be liable for reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in the collection of
<br />delinquent dues, assessments, charges, costs or fines, and any accrued interest thereon.

<br />Lot(s) of the delinquent Owner, which lien shall be superior to all claims to such Lot
<br />except mortgages and delinquent real property tax, as well as an enforceable personal
<br />obligation of the Owner. The Association, or its successors and assigns, may upon
<br />failure of an Owner to pay any statement tendered by the Associatbn, record notice of its
<br />claim of lien against any such Lot and thereafter pursue an action to forecbse said lien in
