land are subdivided further, the lot owners, heirs, assigns and

be liable under this Agreement for their then pro rata share of
expenses and such pro rata shares of expenses shall be computed
to reflect such newly created parcels.
4. The repairs and maintenance to be performed under
this Agreement shall be limited to the following unless the

the lot owners owning 100% of the number of parcels, including
subdivisions thereof as described in Paragraph 3 above:
