          (e) A description of any other payments, fees and charges that may be charged by the hotel unit owner, including those that may be charged in order to offset the increased burden placed on the shared components as a result of use of residential units as transient rentals; and

          (f) A statement of any unsatisfied judgments or pending legal actions against the association or the hotel unit owner which affect the shared components and the status of any pending legal actions relating to the condominium hotel of which the unit’s owner has actual knowledge.

          2.  The purchaser may, by written notice, cancel the contract of purchase until midnight of the fifth calendar day following the date of receipt of the resale package described in subsection 1, and the contract for purchase must contain a provision to that effect. If the purchaser elects to cancel a contract pursuant to this subsection, the purchaser must hand deliver the notice of cancellation to the residential unit owner or his or her authorized agent or mail the notice of cancellation by prepaid United States mail to the residential unit owner or his or her authorized agent. Cancellation is without penalty, and all payments made by the purchaser before cancellation must be refunded promptly. If the purchaser has accepted a conveyance of the residential unit, the purchaser is not entitled to:

          (a) Cancel the contract pursuant to this subsection; or

          (b) Damages, rescission or other relief based solely on the ground that the residential unit owner or his or her authorized agent failed to furnish the resale package, or any portion thereof, as required by this section.

          3.  Within 10 days after receipt of a written request by a residential unit owner or his or her authorized agent, the hotel unit owner shall furnish all of the following to the residential unit owner or his or her authorized agent for inclusion in the resale package:

          (a) Copies of the documents required pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (c) of subsection 1; and

          (b) A certificate containing the information necessary to enable the residential unit owner to comply with paragraphs (b) and (d) of subsection 1.

          4.  If the hotel unit owner furnishes the documents and certificate pursuant to subsection 3:

          (a) The residential unit owner or his or her authorized agent shall include the documents and certificate in the resale package provided to the purchaser, and neither the residential unit owner nor his or her authorized agent is liable to the purchaser for any erroneous information provided by the hotel unit owner and included in the documents and certificate.

          (b) The hotel unit owner may charge the residential unit owner a reasonable fee to cover the cost of preparing the certificate furnished pursuant to subsection 3. Such a fee must be based on the actual cost the association incurs to fulfill the requirements of this section in preparing the certificate. The Commission shall adopt regulations establishing the maximum amount of the fee that the hotel unit owner may charge for preparing the certificate.

          (c) The hotel unit owner may charge the residential unit owner a reasonable fee, not to exceed 25 cents per page, to cover the cost of copying the other documents furnished pursuant to subsection 3.

          (d) Except for the fees allowed pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c), the hotel unit owner may not charge the residential unit owner any other fees for preparing or furnishing the documents and certificate pursuant to subsection 3.

          5.  Neither a purchaser nor the purchaser’s interest in a residential unit is liable for any unpaid assessment or fee greater than the amount set forth in the documents and certificate prepared by the hotel unit owner. If the hotel unit owner fails to furnish the documents and certificate within the 10 days allowed by this section, the seller is not liable for the delinquent assessment.

          6.  Upon the request of a residential unit owner or his or her authorized agent, or upon the request of a purchaser to whom the hotel unit owner has provided a resale package pursuant to this section or his or her authorized agent, the hotel unit owner shall make the entire study of the reserves of the association or the shared components reasonably available for the residential unit owner, purchaser or authorized agent to inspect, examine, photocopy and audit. The study must be made available at the business office of the association or the hotel unit owner or some other suitable location within the county where the condominium hotel is situated or, if it is situated in more than one county, within one of those counties.
