1. Where any part of the statement of record contained an untrue statement of a material

fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein, the Administrator

or any person acquiring a membership from the developer or his or her agent during

the period the public offering statement remained uncorrected (unless it is proved

that at the time of the acquisition the Administrator or purchaser knew of the untruth

or omission) may sue the developer in any court of competent jurisdiction. 2. Any developer or agent who sells a membership: (a) In violation of this chapter; or (b) By means of a public offering statement which contained an untrue statement of

a material fact required to be stated therein, may be sued by the Administrator or

purchaser of the membership. 3. If a suit authorized under subsection 1 or 2 is brought by the purchaser, the purchaser

is entitled to recover such damages as represent the difference between the amount

paid for the membership and the reasonable cost of any permanent improvements thereto,

and the lesser of: (a) The value thereof as of the time the suit was brought; (b) The price at which the membership has been disposed of in a bona fide market transaction

before suit; or (c) The price at which the membership has been disposed of after suit in a bona fide

market transaction but before judgment, or to rescission of the contract of sale and the refund of any consideration paid

by the purchaser. 4. If a suit authorized under subsection 1 or 2 is brought by the Administrator, the

Administrator may seek a declaration of the court that any person entitled to sue

the developer or his or her agent under this section is entitled to the right of rescission

and the refund of any consideration paid by him or her. 5. Every person who becomes liable to make any payment under this section may recover

contribution as in cases of contract from any person who, if sued separately, would

have been liable to make the same payment. 6. Reasonable attorney's fees may be awarded to the prevailing party in any action

brought under this section. Any action to rescind a contract of sale under this section must be brought within

1 year after the date of purchase or within 1 year after the date of the discovery

of the misrepresentation giving rise to the action for rescission. 7. The provisions of this section are in addition to and not a substitute for any

other right of a person to bring an action in any court for any act involved in the

offering or sale of memberships or the right of the state to punish any person for

any violation of any law. 8. For the purposes of this section “statement of record” means the information submitted

to the Administrator by the developer in its application for a permit to offer to

sell memberships in a campground.
