ARTICLE 13. PROTECTION OF MORTGAGEES
13.1 Mortgagee Provisions. A breach of any of the provisions, covenants, restrictions or limitations hereof or the Recordation of any Association Lien or the pursuit of any remedy hereunder shall not defeat or render invalid the lien of any Mortgage of Record. The Owners and their Mortgagees may examine the books and records of the Association during all normal business hours, upon serving written notice of such examination on the Board. All of the provisions herein shall be binding upon and effective against any Owner whose title to said Lot is hereafter acquired through foreclosure or trustee's sale. The Mortgagee of any Mortgage of Record on any Lot may file with the Board a written request for written notification from the Association of any default by the Mortgagor of such Lot in the performance of such Mortgagor's obligations under this Declaration which is not cured within thirty (30) days, and the Board shall give notice thereof to each such Mortgagee. Each Institutional Lender which holds a Mortgage encumbering any Lot in the Property which obtains title to such Lot pursuant to the remedies provided in such Mortgage, by judicial or non-judicial foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, shall take title to such Lot free and clear of any claims for unpaid Assessments or charges against such Lot which accrued prior to the time such holder acquires title to such Lot. The Association shall treat such unpaid Assessments and charges as a Common Expense.
