§ 3-105. Termination of contracts and leases of declarant
(a) Within two years after the executive board elected by the unit owners pursuant to subsection 3-103(f) of this title takes office, the association may terminate without penalty, upon at least 90 days' notice to the other party, any of the following if entered into before the executive board was elected:
(1) any management, maintenance, operations, or employment contract, or lease of recreational or parking areas or facilities; or
(2) any other contract or lease between the association and a declarant or an affiliate of a declarant.
(b) At any time after the executive board elected by the unit owners pursuant to subsection 3-103(f) of this title takes office, the association may terminate without penalty, upon at least 90 days' notice to the other party, any contract or lease that is not bona fide or was unconscionable to the unit owners at the time the contract was entered into.
(c) This section does not apply to a lease which if terminated would terminate the common interest community or reduce its size, unless the real estate subject to that lease was included in the common interest community for the purpose of avoiding the right of the association to terminate a lease under this section.
