(a) If the declaration for a condominium provides that any of the powers described in Section 35-8A-302 are to be exercised by or may be delegated to a profit or nonprofit corporation which exercises those or other powers on behalf of one or more condominiums or for the benefit of the unit owners of one or more condominiums, all provisions of this chapter applicable to unit owners' associations apply to any such corporation with regard to such delegated power except as modified by this section.

(b) Unless it is acting in the capacity of an association described in Section 35-8A-301, a master association may exercise the powers set forth in Section 35-8A-302(a)(2) only to the extent expressly permitted in the declarations of condominiums which are part of the master association or expressly described in the delegations of power from those condominiums to the master association.

(c) If the declaration of any condominium provides that the board may delegate certain powers to a master association, the members of the board have no liability for the acts or omissions of the master association with respect to those powers following delegation.

(d) The rights and responsibilities of unit owners with respect to the unit owners' association set forth in Sections 35-8A-303, 35-8A-308 through 35-8A-310, and 35-8A-312 apply in the conduct of the affairs of a master association only to those persons who elect the board of a master association, whether or not those persons are otherwise unit owners within the meaning of this chapter.

(e) Even if a master association is also an association described in Section 35-8A-301, the certificate of incorporation or other instrument creating the master association and the declaration of each condominium the powers of which are assigned by the declaration or delegated to the master association, may provide that the executive board of the master association must be elected after the period of declarant control in any of the following ways:

(1) All unit owners of all condominiums subject to the master association may elect all members of that executive board.
