Insurance Deductibles. In the event of an insured loss, any required deductible shall be considered a maintenance expense to be paid by the Person or Persons who would be responsible for such loss in the absence of insurance.

Such encroachments shall be allowed to continue in existence for so long as the reconstructed building(s) shall stand.

(e) Construction Fund.

Disclosures. Each Owner and Occupant acknowledge the following:

The Condominium is located adjacent to thoroughfares that may be affected by traffic and noise from time to time and may be improved and/or widened in the future.

(i1) The natural light available to and views from an Owner's Unit may change over time due to, among other circumstances, additional development and the removal or addition of landscaping.

(iii) No representations are made regarding the zoning of adjacent property, or that the category to which adjacent property is zoned may not change in the future.

No representations are made regarding the schools that currently or may in the future serve the Unit.

Since in every community, there are conditions that different people may find objectionable, it is acknowledged that there may be conditions outside of the Condominium that an Owner or Occupant may find objectionable and that it shall be the sole responsibility of the Owners and Occupants to become acquainted with community conditions that could affect the Unit.

(vi) The Floor Plans and the dimensions and square footage calculations shown thereon are only approximations. Any Owner who is concerned about any representations regarding the Floor Plans should do his/her own investigation as to the dimensions, measurements and square footage of his/her Unit.

(vii) Declarant may be renovating portions of the Condominium and engaging in other construction activities related to the Common Elements and additional phases of the Condominium. Such renovation activities may, from time to time, produce certain conditions on the Condominium, including, without limitation: (A) noise or sound that is objectionable because of its volume, duration, frequency or shrillness; (B) smoke; (C) noxious, toxic, or corrosive fumes or gases; (D) obnoxious odors; (E) dust, dirt or flying ash; (F) unusual fire or explosion hazards; (G) temporary interruption of utilities; and/or (H) other conditions that may threaten the life-safety of Persons on the Condominium.

(viii) Concrete and hardwood surfaces and other uncovered surfaces within a Unit may transmit noise, and such noise shall not constitute a use of the Unit that interferes with or causes disruption to the use and enjoyment of another Unit by its respective Owner and/or Occupant.

No representations are made that the Unit is or will be soundproof or that sound may not be transmitted from one Unit to another or from the Common Elements (including, but not limited to, any amenity areas) to a Unit. Sound transmission between Units and Common Elements is inherent in multi-family construction and is not a warrantable condition.

A Unit may trap humidity created by everyday living (cooking, bathing, laundering etc.). As a result, condensation may appear on the interior portion of windows and glass surfaces and fogging of windows and glass surfaces may occur due to temperature disparities between the interior and exterior portions of the windows and glass. If left unattended
