Plat, and any interest therein, shall be held and owned subject to and in conformity with, the
dedications, covenants, restrictions, uses and limitations set forth herein, which shall be
construed as covenants running with the land and binding upon the Owners.
E. PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOCIATION.
1. Grantor has formed and incorporated an Arkansas nonprofit corporation
known as Hickory Pointe Property Owners Association, Inc. (the "Association") embracing all of
the Subdivision. The Association has all the powers and shall act in accordance with the
Association's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws as now written or as hereafter amended.
2. Upon a deed to any Lot being filed of record in the offices of the Circuit
Clerk and Ex-Officio Recorder for Pulaski County, Arkansas, the grantee(s) of such Lot shall
automatically become a member(s) of the Association and shall retain membership until such
time as his or her ownership ceases for any reason, whether by sale or otherwise.
3. Responsibility for the actual operation of the Association shall be vested
in the Board of Directors of the Association in accordance with the provisions of this Bill of
Assurance and the Bylaws of the Association. The Board of Directors shall be responsible to the
Association, but may delegate the responsibility for the operation and administration of the
Association to a managing agent.
F. ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMITTEES.
1. There shall be two (2) architectural review committees for the
Subdivision, one having jurisdiction over initial construction on a Lot and the other having
jurisdiction over all additions, modifications and alterations to existing improvements.
a. Initial Architectural Review Committee. The architectural review
committee having jurisdiction over initial construction (the "Initial Architectural Review
Committee") shall be composed of two (2) members being Grantor or their designees. The
Initial Architectural Review Committee shall attempt in good faith to approve or disapprove all
plans within two weeks after submission. In the event these two (2) members do not agree on
the approval or disapproval of a set of proposed architectural plans, they shall obtain the services
of a mutually acceptable registered professional architect to act as a tie breaker. When the initial
construction on the last Lot is completed, all obligations, responsibilities, duties and jurisdiction
2
of the Initial Architectural Review Committee shall terminate. After all Lots have been sold, the
Initial Architectural Review Committee may, by written instrument executed by the members
thereof, transfer its duties and responsibilities to the Modification Architectural Review
Committee.
b. Modification Architectural Review Committee. The architectural
review committee having jurisdiction over all additions, modifications and alterations to existing
improvements (the "Modification Architectural Review Committee") shall be composed of three
(3) members, each of whom shall be an Owner. The chairperson of the Committee shall be a
member of the Association's Board of Directors other than its chairman and shall be appointed
by that Board of Directors. The other two Committee members shall be nominated by the
Association Board of Directors or by a petition signed by a least five (5) members of the
Association, and approved by the Association membership. Any action taken by a majority of
the Committee shall be final and binding.
2. No building, wall, fence, swimming pool, hot tub, tennis court, driveway,
exterior landscape lighting or other improvement shall be erected or placed on any Lot, nor shall
any exterior addition to or change or alteration thereof, including a change in paint color, be
made, until the following documents have been submitted to and approved in writing by the
appropriate Architectural Review Committee:
a. a complete set of construction plans and specifications; and
b. a site plan in regard to any proposed construction, showing its
nature, exterior color scheme, shape, height and other dimensions, landscaping, driveways,
patios, all materials and the location of the improvements on that particular Lot and any
renderings and elevations and other information reasonably requested by the appropriate
Architectural Review Committee.
3. The appropriate Architectural Review Committee shall have the right to
disapprove any plans and specifications submitted hereunder because of, but not limited to, any
of the following reasons:
a. the failure of such plans and specifications to comply with any of
the restrictions or provisions provided herein;
b. failure to include information in such plans and specifications as
may have been reasonably requested by the Architectural Review Committee or its designee;
C. objection to the exterior design, appearance or materials of any
proposed structure;
d. incompatibility of any proposed structure or use with existing
structures or uses upon other Lots in Hickory Pointe;
e. objection to the location of any proposed structure upon any Lot or
with reference to other Lots in Hickory Pointe;
3
f. objection to the grading plan for any Lot;
g. objection to the color scheme, finish, proportions, style of
architecture, height, bulk or appropriateness of any proposed structure;
h. objection to driveway and parking areas proposed for any Lot; and
i. any other matter which, in the judgment of such Architectural
Review Committee would render the proposed structure or use incompatible with the general
plan of improvement of Hickory Pointe or with structures or uses located upon other Lots in the
vicinity.
Where the Architectural Review Committee shall disapprove any plans and specifications
submitted hereunder, or shall approve the same only as modified or upon specified conditions,
the applicable Architectural Review Committee shall submit, upon written request, a statement
which shall specify the grounds for disapproval or qualified approval, and the Committee shall, if
requested, make reasonable efforts to consult with and advise the applicant so that an acceptable
proposal may be prepared and submitted.
4. Any approval, disapproval or approval based upon modification or
specified conditions by the appropriate Architectural Review Committee in accordance with the
terms hereof shall be final and binding, except as a right of appeal may be specifically granted
herein.
5. The primary purpose of the Architectural Review Committees shall be to
insure that proper standards of planning, design, aesthetics and construction are followed in the
development of Hickory Pointe. It is the purpose and intent of this covenant that, in order to
assure the Owners the safeguard of a reasonable degree of conformity among the various
buildings in this Subdivision, the quality, design and location of all buildings, walls, fences and
other improvements shall be regulated as provided herein.
6. If any structure shall be erected, placed, altered or maintained upon any
Lot, or any new use commenced on any Lot other than in accordance with plans and
specifications approved by the appropriate Architectural Review Committee, such erection,
placement, alteration, maintenance or use shall be deemed to have been undertaken in violation
of this provision, and the appropriate Architectural Review Committee shall so notify in writing
the Owner of the Lot upon which such violation exists. In the event said Owner shall not have
taken reasonable steps toward the removal and termination of said violation within fifteen (15)
days after the date of the notice of violation, the Association shall have the right to remove any
such structure and terminate any such use so as to extinguish such violation. The cost of such
removal or termination shall be a binding and personal obligation against such Owner, as well as
a lien upon the Lot.
G. COMMON AREAS.
1. There are shown on the Plat certain common areas within the Subdivision
which include the private roadways (also designated on the Plat as Hickory Pointe Blvd. and
Hickory Pointe Cove) and a 30 ft. access easement (located adjacent to Lots 12, 13 and 14),
G!
which Common Areas are hereby conveyed by Grantor to the Association, which shall have the
obligation and duty to manage and maintain the Common Areas for the use and benefit of all of
the Owners. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner of each Lot shall be responsible for
landscaping, mowing and maintaining that portion of such Common Area lying between his Lot
and the curb of the adjacent private roadway or access easement.
2. Deeds, conveyances and other instruments describing Lots in Hickory
Pointe bounded by or abutting upon any Common Area shall not convey or include any part of
the Common Area, nor shall any Owner be permitted to construct improvements within the
Common Area or consider the Common Area in any way when determining the building setback
lines or other restrictions pertinent to the Owner's Lot.
3. Subject to the provisions of subparagraph (6) below, every member of the
Association and such member's invitees shall have a non-exclusive right and easement subject to
the restrictions of subparagraph (5) below, of enjoyment in and to the Common Area and such
easement shall be appurtenant to and shall pass with the title to every Lot in Hickory Pointe.
4. The rights and easements of enjoyment of the Common Area shall be
subject to the following:
a. The right of the Association to limit the number of guests of
members and to limit the number of persons or entities to be included as Owner of any Lot; and
b. The right of the Association to dedicate or transfer all or any part
of the Common Area to any public agency, authority or utility for such purpose and subject to
such conditions as may be agreed to by the Association members, provided, that no such
dedication or transfer shall be effective unless an instrument showing assent to such dedication
or transfer signed by not less than two-thirds (2/3) of all members of the Association who are
voting in person or by proxy at a meeting duly called for that purpose has been executed and
filed for record in the office of the Circuit Clerk and Ex-Officio Recorder for Pulaski County,
Arkansas.
5. Any member may delegate, in accordance with the Association's Articles
of Incorporation and Bylaws, his right of enjoyment to the Common Area to those in his
household or his tenants who reside on his Lot.
6. Upon the dissolution of the Association for any reason, the net assets
thereof shall be owned by the Owners of the Lots in Hickory Pointe as tenants in common.
H. RESTRICTION ON USE. In order to provide for the permanent maintenance of
Hickory Pointe in an aesthetically attractive manner for the peaceful enjoyment of the Owners
thereof and for the protection of the value of the Lots, the Lots and the Common Area shall be
occupied and used subject to the following restrictions:
1. There shall be no obstruction of the Common Area. Nothing shall be
stored on the Common Area without the prior consent of the Association. The Association shall
have full power to establish rules concerning the usage of the Common Area.
5
2. The Lots in the Subdivision shall be restricted to residential use only. No
structures shall be erected, altered, placed or permitted other than: (i) one detached single-family
dwelling which shall not exceed two (2) stories in height when seen from the front or principal
street fagade, (ii) a single private garage for the storage of not more than four (4) passenger cars
owned or used by residents, (iii) guesthouse, (iv) servant's quarters and (v) other outbuildings
incidental and related to residential use of the premises. Boarding houses, tenements, apartment
houses, trailer parks, tourist courts, motels, hotels, restaurants, eating houses, clubs, stores,
beauty shops, barber shops, other commercial establishments of any kind and signs of
advertising of any nature in connection with any of these activities are prohibited and shall not be
carried on or permitted on any part of any Lot. The designation of such specific prohibited
activities shall not limit what is prohibited on the Lots, but this restriction shall be construed to
prohibit on the Lots each and every business, trade, activity and undertaking not in keeping with
the general plan to develop the Lots for the highest class residential use.
3. No principal residential structure shall be constructed or permitted to
remain upon any Lot if the finished heated and/or cooled square foot living area of such
structure, excluding garages, porches, breezeways, porte cocheres, exterior stairways, basements,
workshop areas, storage areas and outbuildings and the like is less than 2,600 square feet for a
one story principal residential structure and 3,000 square feet for a two-story principal residential
structure. Finished heated and/or cooled living area shall be measured in a horizontal plane to
the face of the outside wall of each such area.
4. No Lot platted herein shall be subdivided or replatted unless it is
unanimously approved by (1) the Owners of all Lots within the Subdivision adjoining the Lot in
question at any point, (ii) the Owners of the three (3) Lots, if any, located within the Subdivision
more directly across the private roadway or access easement from the Lot(s) in question and (Ili)
the Initial Architectural Review Committee (or Modification Architectural Review Committee if
the Initial Architectural Review Committee has been disbanded). In the event (1) one or more,
but less than a majority, of the Owners of the neighboring Lots or (ii) the appropriate
Architectural Review Committee refuses to grant such approval, the Owner of the Lot(s) in
question may appeal to the Association, and the entire membership of the Association by a two-
thirds (2/3) vote may grant such approval.
5. Unless in the opinion of the Initial Architectural Review Committee (or
Modification Architectural Review Committee if the Initial Architectural Review Committee has
been disbanded) there is a valid reason and it appears to be in the best interest of adjoining
property Owners and the Subdivision in general, no building, excluding eaves, steps and open
porches, shall be approved to be located on any Lot unless such location shall comply with the
following:
a. Front Lot Line. No building shall be located on any Lot nearer to
the front -lot line or nearer to any side "street" line than the twenty-five (25) foot minimum
building setback lines shown on the Plat;
b. Interior Lot Line. No building shall be located nearer to an interior
lot line than a distance equal to eight (8) feet on each side;

twenty-five (25) feet from the rear lot line, except for Lot 1 as to which the rear building setback
line will be coextensive with the Eastern line of the wall maintenance easement.
Where two or more Lots are acquired as a single building site, only those
building set back lines bordering public streets, the private roadways or the 30' access easement,
and adjoining property owners shall apply.
6. No business, trade, activity, or undertaking which is or may become
noxious or offensive shall be carried on or permitted within the Subdivision nor shall anything be
done therein which may be or become an annoyance or nuisance to adjacent Owners of Lots.
Due care shall be exercised at all times with regard to noise and all other uses or practices which
may be a source of annoyance to Owners of Lots or which may be a nuisance or may interfere
with the peaceful possession and proper use of the property or premises of any other person. The
Association shall have the authority to terminate any activity or conduct which constitutes an
annoyance or nuisance.
7. No animals of any kind shall be raised, bred or kept on any Lot or in the
Common Area, except that dogs, cats, and other household pets may be kept provided they are
not kept or maintained for any commercial purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Owner
agrees to permanently remove from the Subdivision within three (3) days on receipt of written
notice, any animal which, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Association Board of
Directors, causes a nuisance or threat of danger to other Owners in the Subdivision. All leash
laws of the City of Little Rock shall apply to the Common Areas. The Association Board of
Directors may adopt regulations limiting the number of household pets which may be kept on
any Lot.
8. No advertisement, sign or poster shall be erected or displayed on or within
the Subdivision without the prior written consent of the Association, except typical real estate for
sale signs shall be permitted. Such sign shall be limited to one sign per Lot and no larger than
2 feet by 3 feet.

system shall be installed in or about the Subdivision without the prior written approval of the

forty-eight (48) hours on a Lot. Such vehicles must be stored only in a garage or similar
permitted accessory building and shall not at any time be allowed to remain in the Common
Areas.
12. No trailer, basement, tent, shack, garage, garage apartment, hutment, barn,
structure of a temporary character or outbuilding of any kind shall at any time be used or
occupied as a residence or living unit temporarily or permanently on any Lot, provided the
7
foregoing shall not be construed to prevent occupancy of a guesthouse or servants' quarters by
bona fide domestic servants employed by and domiciled on said Lot with an Owner or tenant.
Neither the residence nor guesthouse nor servants' quarters shall be used or occupied until the
construction and painting thereof is completely finished.
13. Any outbuilding of any kind must be constructed with the same materials
as the principal residence and be substantially similar in appearance with such residence. No
existing, erected building or structure of any kind may be moved onto or placed on any Lot.
14. No ham radio antenna or satellite dish may be erected on any house or Lot
without the prior approval of the appropriate Architectural Review Committee.

elevations between two (2) and six (6) feet above the roadways shall be placed or permitted to
remain on any corner Lot within the triangular area of such corner Lot formed by the street
property lines and a line connecting them at points twenty-five (25) feet from the intersection of
the street lines; or in the case of a rounded property corner, from the intersection of the street
property lines extended. These same sight line limitations shall also apply on any Lot such that
no obstruction shall be placed or permitted within ten (10) feet from the intersection of the street
property line with the edges of a driveway or alley pavement. No tree shall be permitted to
remain within the distances of such intersections unless the foliage line is maintained in such
manner as to prevent obstruction of sight lines. It is expressly provided that the walls built or to
be built by the Grantor around portions of the Subdivision and which cross the private roadway
and 30' access easement shall not be subject to these restrictions.
17. No fence, wall, hedge or mass planting shall be permitted to extend
beyond the minimum building setback line established herein, except upon approval by the
appropriate Architectural Review Committee. No fence, wall or other structure shall be erected
along property lines without prior approval of design, construction and materials by the
appropriate Architectural Review Committee. However, the provisions of this paragraph do not
apply to the walls and fences of approximately eight (8) feet in height that have been or will be
erected by Grantor surrounding portions of the Subdivision.
18. No obstruction shall be placed in the street gutter. Curbs shall be broken
at driveways and driveway grades shall be lowered to meet the gutter line not more than two (2)
inches above the gutter grade. All curb cuts made by a Lot Owner must be repaired and restored
by the Lot Owner at his expense to the full satisfaction of the appropriate Architectural Review
Committee.
19. Without the specific written approval of the appropriate Architectural
Review Committee, no garage may be constructed which will open toward the front of any Lot.
Any residence erected on any Lot shall front on and present a good frontage on the adjacent
private roadway (or 30' access easement in the case of Lots 12, 13 and 14) shown in the Plat, and
n.
on any corner Lot the residence shall front or present a good frontage on both of the adjacent
private roadways shown in the Plat.
20. Grantor will provide a mailbox for each Lot in the Subdivision, which
each Owner must use. Any subsequent mailbox used by Lot Owner must be substantially in
conformity with the mailbox originally supplied by Grantor and must be approved by the
appropriate Architectural Review Committee.
21. Without the approval of the appropriate Architectural Review Committee,
no tree with a circumference at the base of twelve (12) inches or greater may be cut on any Lot in
the Subdivision, and no tree may be cut or removed and no fill material may be placed in the
Common Area without approval of the appropriate Architectural Review Committee.
22. The Owner of each Lot will be responsible for reasonable oversight and
control of the conduct of his contractors, sub -contractors and their employees while working in
the Subdivision, including controlling their access to the Subdivision. After the first residence in
the Subdivision is occupied, no construction activity shall be performed before 7:00 a.m. or after
6:00 p.m. on any weekday and no construction activity shall occur on any weekend or any
regularly observed holiday designated by the Association. The Owner shall insure that his
construction site is kept reasonably clean and free of unnecessary debris during construction and
shall take appropriate measures to insure that trash and loose materials are not blown into the
Common Areas or onto other Lots. The Owner shall be responsible for the costs of any clean-up
incurred by the Association or other Owners of Lots as a result of any violation of this paragraph.
Construction equipment, trucks and trailers shall not be parked in the private roadways or the 30'
access easement overnight or at any time in a manner which would interfere with the orderly use
thereof by the Owners of any other Lot.
23. No garbage, trash, rubbish, tree limbs, pine straw, leaves, cuttings, ashes
or other refuse shall be thrown, placed or dumped on any Lot or Common Area unless placed in
a suitable container for garbage pickup.
24. Easements for various purposes and of various widths have been dedicated
herein and identified on the Plat filed herewith. No landscaping, structures or other
improvements shall be placed, built or maintained within the areas of such easements. If any
landscaping, structures or other improvements are placed, built or maintained within such areas,
no person or entity, including the Association, properly exercising its rights to utilize such
easement shall be liable for any damage or destruction caused to such landscaping, structures or
other improvements.
I. COVENANTS RUN WITH LAND. The covenants in paragraph H shall run
with the land and shall be binding on all Lot Owners, their successors, heirs and assigns;
provided, however that such covenants shall expire on December 31, 2052 unless extended
beyond said date for a new period not exceeding twenty (20) years by a written instrument
signed and acknowledged by the Owners of a majority of the Lots in the Subdivision. Further
extensions may be affected in like manner in ten (10) year increments.
9
J. REMEDIES OF ADJACENT OWNERS. In the event of any violation or
attempt to violate any of the covenants or restrictions herein before the expiration date hereof
(whether the original expiration date or any extension thereof), it shall be lawful for the
Association or any Owner of any Lot in the Subdivision to prosecute any proceedings at law or
in equity against the person or persons violating or attempting to violate such covenants or
restrictions, and to prevent him or them from so doing and/or to recover damages for such
violations.
K. LIEN FOR EXPENSES OF ADMINISTRATION AND MAINTENANCE.
1. The Lot Owners are obligated to contribute pro rata for the expenses
incurred to administer the Subdivision and to maintain, construct, reconstruct, repair and replace,
as necessary or desirable, any and all improvements and additions to the Common Area, the
perimeter walls, fences and entry gates, and for other expenses incurred for the benefit of the
Subdivision, specifically including, but not limited to, premiums for property and liability
insurance for the Common Area and the improvements thereon, and all assessments whether
levied in the form of regular, special, individual, capital improvement or otherwise, all as more
particularly set forth in the Bylaws for the Association.
2. Such assessments, together with interest, costs and reasonable attorneys'
fees, if delinquent, shall constitute a continuing lien on each Owner's Lot(s) until paid. Such lien
shall be prior to all other subsequently recorded liens or encumbrances. The sale or transfer of
any Lot shall not affect the lien for assessments, except the lien for any unpaid prior assessments
shall be extinguished in the case of prior mortgagees who succeed to the title of an Owner by
foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.
3. The Association is herein granted a landscaping and no vehicular access
easement on the portions of every Lot lying outside the perimeter brick wall. The Association
shall be responsible for installing and maintaining any or all landscaping on that portion of such
Lots lying outside such perimeter brick wall.
4. The assessments shall be established, increased, decreased, suspended,
cancelled or otherwise changed only as set forth in the Association's Bylaws, and all assessments
levied by the Association shall be used exclusively to promote the recreation, health, safety and
welfare of the residents in Hickory Pointe.
L. AMENDMENTS.
1. The provisions of this Bill of Assurance may be amended, modified,
extended, changed, or cancelled from time to time, pursuant to the provisions of this section L.
2. An amendment, modification, extension, change or cancellation may be
proposed to the Association by either the Board of Directors or by a petition signed by the
Owners of a majority of the Lots in the Subdivision. Notice of the subject matter of any
proposed amendment, modification, extension, change or cancellation, in reasonably detailed
form, shall be included in the notice of any Association meeting at which the proposed
amendment, modification, extension, change or cancellation is to be considered.
10
3. No amendment, modification, extension, change or cancellation of this
Bill of Assurance shall be binding or effective unless and until (i) the proposed amendment,
modification, extension, change or cancellation is considered at an Association meeting at which
a quorum is represented in person or by proxy, or by a ballot vote in which a quorum is cast; (ii)
the proposed amendment, modification, extension, change or cancellation receives the approval
of two-thirds (2/3) of the members of the Association who are voting in person, by proxy or by
ballot, (iii) a copy of the amendment, modification, extension, change or cancellation has been
certified by at least two (2) officers of the Association as having been duly adopted and (iv) the
amendment, modification, extension, change or cancellation has been filed of record in the office
of the Circuit Clerk and Ex-Officio Recorder for Pulaski County, Arkansas.
M. CAPTIONS. The captions used in this instrument are inserted solely as a matter
of convenience and shall not be relied upon or used as construing the effect or meaning of any of
the provisions hereof.
N. VOTING. When part of this instrument refers to a vote of the members of the
Association, the number of votes allocated will be one vote per Lot despite the number of
persons who may own an interest in such Lot.
O. MISCELLANEOUS.
1. Whenever the context so permits, the use of plurals shall include the
singular, and use of any gender shall be deemed to include all genders.
2. If any term, covenant, provision, phrase or other part of this instrument is
held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such holding shall not be deemed to affect,
alter, modify or impair in any manner whatsoever the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and
parts thereof.
3. The Association or any Owner shall have the right to enforce by any
proceeding of law or in equity all covenants, restrictions, reservations, liens and charges now or
hereafter imposed by this instrument, the same being a benefit to all. Failure by the Association
or any Owner to enforce any covenant or restriction herein contained shall in no event be deemed
a waiver of the right to do so thereafter.
4. In any legal or equitable proceeding for the enforcement of or to restrain
violation of this instrument or any provision thereof, the prevailing party or parties shall be
entitled to attorney's fees and costs in such amount as the court finds reasonable. All remedies
provided for herein shall be cumulative and not exclusive.
5. Any provision herein requiring the obtaining of approval, consent,
permission or similar response of either of the Architectural Review Committees, the
Association, its Board of Directors or others shall be interpreted as requiring the specific written
approval, consent, permission or response thereof prior to the act or event requiring such
approval, consent, permission or response.
