For the term of this Declaration, each and every contract, deed or other instrument hereafter executed conveying the Property or portion thereof shall expressly provide that such conveyance is subject to this Declaration, provided, however, the covenants contained herein shall survive and be effective regardless of whether such contracts, deed, or other instrument hereafter executed conveying the Property or portion thereof provides that such conveyance is subject to this Declaration. It is further the responsibility of Owner to rerecord the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants periodically and no less often than one day less than every 30 years from the date hereof for the purpose of renewing the rights of first refusal in the Property or portion thereof including any leasehold interest in the Property or portion thereof. Orange County retains the right to, periodically and every 30 years after the first recording of the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants on the Property to register, with the Register of Deeds of Orange County, a notice of preservation of the Restrictive Covenants on the Property as provided in North Carolina General Statute § 4713-4 or any comparable preservation law in effect at the time of the recording of the notice of preservation. It is the intent of this Section that the 99 year duration of this Declaration of Restrictive Covenants be accomplished and that any future owner of the Property, Habitat, and Orange County will do what is necessary to ensure that the same is not extinguished by N.C. Gen. Stat. § 41-29 or any comparable law purporting to extinguish, by the passage of time, preemptive rights in the Property and by the Real Property Marketable Title Act or any comparable law purporting to extinguish, by the passage of time, non possessory interests in real property. Any future owner, Habitat and Orange County agree to do what each must do to accomplish the 99-year duration of this Declaration of Restrictive Covenants.

Owner shall send to Orange County, at the address noted in the Notice section of this Declaration, not less than 90 days prior to the contemplated closing date of the Transfer, a"Notice of Intent to Sell." This Notice of Intent to Sell shall be accompanied by a copy of a completed, fully executed bona fide offer to purchase the Property on the then current North Carolina Bar Association "Offer to Purchase and Contract" form. If Orange County elects to exercise its said right of refusal, it shall notify the Owner of its election to purchase within 30 days
