of performing the Work, the Board shall levy a Special Assessment against all Unit Owners
for the amount of such deficiency in proportion to their respective Common Interests, and
all proceeds of such Special Assessment shall become part of the Trust Funds. However,
if the insurance proceeds are not sufficient to discharge the cost and expense of performing

cost and expense must be paid by the owner or owners of the Units or Limited Common
Elements which were damaged and no special assessment may be levied against the Unit
Owners. If, conversely, the Trust Funds shall prove to be more than sufficient to discharge
the cost and expense of performing the Work, such excess shall be paid to the Unit Owner
of the damaged unit, except that no payment shall be made to a Unit Owner until there has

in Section 2.4 hereof, to levy Special Assessments to meet the Common Expenses or to
fund additional projects. All Special Assessments may be payable either in one lump sum

give each Unit Owner not less than thirty (30) days' notice prior to the date upon which
such Special Assessment, or the first installment thereof, shall be due and payable, which

pay the License Fee and/or Special Assessment due hereunder or imposed by the
Condominium Board in the future shall constitute a material default under the terms of the
Condominium Documents. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the collection
of the License Fees shall be subject to the same means of enforcement of collection as

omitted, even though the latter shall not be expressly mentioned or described therein.
