If entered into before the board of directors elected by the unit owners pursuant to § 66-27-403(e) takes office, any contract or lease between the association and a declarant or an affiliate of a declarant, unless the contract or lease exercises a development right or a special declarant right, or any other contract or lease that was not disclosed in the declaration or otherwise in writing prior to the first conveyance of a unit to a party other than the declarant, and at the time entered into was unconscionable to the unit owners under the circumstances then prevailing, may be terminated without penalty by the association at any time after the board of directors elected by the unit owners pursuant to § 66-27-403(e) takes office, upon not less than ninety (90) days notice to the other party.
