And all facts that an accurate survey may disclose.
This Deed entitles the Grantee to have and to hold for its proper use and benefit forever the premises and all it is subject to as described in this document.
The Grantor covenants that the Grantor has done nothinq which encumbers or adversely affects title to the Unit or the Common Elements of the Condominium.
By the acceptance of this Deed, the Grantee consents to any future amendments or revisions of the Master Deed or the By-Laws of the Condominium Association (referred to in this Deed as the "Condominium Documents"), which may be required by the laws or governmental agencies of the State of New Jersey in connection-with the sale of any property described in either of the Condominium Documents, and/or by any title insurance company insuring title to any portion of the Condominium at the Grantor's request, and/or by an institutional lender (including the Grantor) providing mortgage loans to Unit Owners.
If amendment is required for any one of the reasons described above, then the Grantee expressly agrees that the Grantor is authorized, on behalf of the Grantee, to sign and record any documents necessary to make the amendment effective. This authority is called a power of attorney and the Grantor, in exercising this authority, is referred to as the Grantee's attorney-in-fact. By signing this Deed, the Grantee designates the Grantor as having this authority. This power of attorney will be binding upon anyone who claims an interest in the Unit by or through the Grantee, such as a mortgagee, other lienholder, a purchaser, a tenant or someone with an interest acquired through a will or by operation of law. If an amendment is required for one of the reasons expressed, only the signature of the attorney-in-fact is required in order for the amendment to be effective. However, the Grantor may not exercise its authority as attorney-in-fact without a separate written consent of the Grantee if the amendment would substantially change the floor plan of the Unit, or the percentage interest in the Common Elements associated with the Unit, increase the financial obligations of the Grantee under the Condominium Documents, or reserve any additional special privileges for the Grantor.
The Grantee declares and acknowledges that this power of attorney is coupled with an interest in the subject matter. The Grantee understands that the Grantor has caused the Condominium Documents to be adopted and recorded and that these Documents are binding on the owners of all Units in the Condominium for the mutual benefit of the owners of all Units including the Grantor. The Grantor, as the Developer of the Condominium, the initial seller of all Units and as a present owner of Units, has an interest in the Condominium and the amendment of the Condominium Documents under the circumstances described. For this reason, this power of attorney may not be revoked by the Grantee.
The power of attorney will be effective for a period of five (5) years from the date that the first Unit is conveyed to a Buyer, or until the Grantor conveys title to the last Unit, whichever occurs first. This power of attorney shall not be affected by the death or disability of any principal.
The Grantor has received the full payment from the Grantee.
This Deed is signed by the Grantor and the Grantee(s) on the date first mentioned above.
