3. An instrument that creates restrictions or obligations with respect to real property that would qualify as activity and use limitations, except for the fact that the instrument was recorded before October 1, 2005, is not invalid or unenforceable because of any of the limitations on enforcement of interests described in subsection 2 or because it was identified as an easement, servitude, deed restriction or other interest. This chapter does not apply in any other respect to such an instrument.
4. This chapter does not invalidate or render unenforceable any interest, whether designated as an environmental covenant or other interest, that is otherwise enforceable under the laws of this State.
