3.2 Residential Planting.

a. Zones. Residential Planting areas include property deeded to the owner and limited commonareas. For the purpose of this section, and making the areas surrounding each residential unit moredefinable, these areas have been divided into three easily recognized zones:

Zone 1: The patio, entry way, and mulch beds inside both the patio fence andsidewalk.

Zone 2: The mulch beds outside of, and abutting, the patio fence and sidewalk.Zone 3: The grass, mulch beds and trees beyond Zone 2 but still relatively

adjacent to the unit.

In Zone 1 owners have the sole responsibility for the plantings and maintenance in that area. ' ThePOA's hired landscape contractor will not interfere with those mulch beds other than to mulch themannually. In the Landscaping sub-sections that follow, you will find that planting limitations in thisZone are few.

In Zones 2 and 3, whether allowed or approved in writing in advance by the Board of Directors,owners who have made additions or changes to the mulch beds and landscape areas are responsiblefor the maintenance of those changes but the P0A's contractor will maintain the original plantingsinstalled by the Developer, or the POA.

b. Request to Change Exterior Form. Should an owner wish to make additions and/or changes toany residential landscaping area adjacent to a unit, other than those approved in this Section, or addnon-plant ornamentation and furniture, other than those approved in Section 3.3 below, the owner mustobtain written approval from the Board of Directors on a Request to Change Exterior form (Exhibit Hattached) prior to the start of any changes. These individual requests, including sketches, if helpful,must be in keeping with the "unified look" of the Community in order to be considered. Processing ofan application will take from two to four weeks, depending on the nature of the change.

Generally, within Zone 1, and in compliance with the Rules in this Section, owners may makewhatever plant additions or changes they wish, including replacing all the plants inside the patio fencewith mulch or other porous material. Within Zone 2 prior written approval is required, with theexception of Section c. (1) & (2), below. No changes of any kind may be made in Zone 3 and othercommon areas such as hillsides, fences, retaining walls, open spaces, etc. without prior written approval.

LETTER FROM THE HAMBURG CROSSING POA BOARD OF DIRECTORSREGARDING INTENT OF THE PROPOSED SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE

DECLARATION OF COVENANTS, CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS

October 27, 2008

Dear Voting Member of the Hamburg Crossing Community,

Your board of directors strongly recommends that you vote in favor of both parts of the enclosedamendment to our Declaration of Covenants. The amendment has been dratted by our attorney, ErinDunnuck of Dungan & Associates, and has been carefully reviewed by the board and other members ofour community.

The first part of the amendment seeks to prevent several families from moving into one home, or toprevent a home from being used as a college dormitory. The language of the amendment (Article IV,section 2. Residential Use) has been tested in the courts of North Carolina and will prevent the kind ofresidential use outlined above that will lead to a deterioration of living conditions and home values atHamburg Crossing. It is not intended to prevent and will not prevent, for example, a home healthcareworker from moving in with the owner, or a widow from living with a friend, or a gay couple from livingtogether.

The second part of the amendment caps the number of rentals allowed in our community at 16 (that is,20% of the 82 homes). Currently, there are 11 rentals at Hamburg Crossing. This rental cap will help topreserve us as a community of owner-occupied homes and prevent us from assuming the character of arenter-occupied community. All homeowners are treated equally by this amendment. If we reach the cap,homeowners will go on a waiting list that will operate on a "first come, first serve" basis. There are alsoprovisions for the board to allow additional rentals on a temporary basis in case of hardship.

Please attend the special meeting of all members on Dec. 8 at 4:00 pm. If you cannot attend, please returnthe enclosed proxy as soon as possible. Make sure that every person named on the deed to your propertysigns the proxy. You may also choose to cast your vote on this proxy. If you have any questions youwould like answered before the meeting, please contact Jim Tucker (828-658-1436,jamestacke17Ca),cha1te1 net) or any member of the board.

Sincerely,

Your Board of Directors
