92 | MOLD DISCLOSURE: There are many types of mold. Inhabitable properties are not, and cannot be, | |||
93 | constructed to exclude mold. Moisture is one of the most significant factors contributing to mold growth. | |||
94 | Information about controlling mold growth may be available from your county extension agent or health | |||
95 | department. Certain strains of mold may cause damage to property and may adversely affect the health of | |||
96 | susceptible persons, including allergic reactions that may include skin, eye, nose, and throat irritation. | |||
97 | Certain strains of mold may cause infections, particularly in individuals with suppressed immune systems. | |||
98 | Some experts contend that certain strains of mold may cause serious and even life-threatening diseases. | |||
99 | However, experts do not agree about the nature and extent of the health problems caused by mold or | |||
100 | about the level of mold exposure that may cause health problems. The Centers for Disease Control and | |||
101 | Prevention is studying the link between mold and serious health conditions. The seller, landlord, seller’s | |||
102 | agent, buyer’s agent, or property manager cannot and does not represent or warrant the absence of mold. | |||
103 | It is the buyer’s or tenant’s obligation to determine whether a mold problem is present. To do so, the buyer | |||
104 | or tenant should hire a qualified inspector and make any contract to purchase, rent, or lease contingent | |||
105 | upon the results of that inspection. A seller, landlord, seller’s agent, buyer’s agent, or property manager | |||
106 | who provides this mold disclosure statement, provides for the disclosure of any prior testing and any | |||
107 | subsequent mitigation or treatment for mold, and discloses any knowledge of mold is not liable in any | |||
108 | action based on the presence of or propensity for mold in a building that is subject to any contract to | |||
109 | purchase, rent, or lease. | |||
110 | The Owner, Landlord, and/or Property Manager disclose that they have knowledge that the building or | |||
111 | buildings on the property have mold present in them. This disclosure is made in recognition that all | |||
112 | inhabitable properties contain mold, as defined by the Montana Mold Disclosure Act (any mold, fungus, | |||
113 | mildew or spores). The Owner, Landlord, and/or Property Manager are not representing that a significant | |||
114 | mold problem exists or does not exist on the property, as such a determination may only be made by a | |||
115 | qualified inspector. |
116 | If Owner/Landlord knows a building located on the property has been tested for mold, Owner/Landlord has |
117 | previously provided or with this Disclosure provides the Tenant a copy of the results of that test {if available) |
118 | and evidence of any subsequent mitigation or treatment. |
120 | The undersigned Tenant acknowledges receipt of this Disclosure, the test results {if available) and evidence |
121 | of subsequent mitigation or treatment. The undersigned Tenant agrees that it is their responsibility to hire a |
122 | qualified inspector to determine if a significant mold problem exists or does not exist on the property. They |
123 | further, acknowledge that the Owner, Landlord, and/or Property Manager, who have provided this Disclosure, |
124 | are not liable for any action based on the presence of or propensity for mold in the properly. |

171 | each calendar month to Landlord at the address indicated in the Specific Terms of this |
172 | Commercial Lease, or at such other place as may be designated by Landlord from time |
173 | to time. Acceptance of rent does not constitute a waiver of prior Tenant default. All |
174 | payments made by Tenant shall apply first to the oldest sums due and owing under the |
175 | ‘terms of this Commercial Lease. All sums due under the terms of this lease shall be |
176 | deemed additional rent and paid and collected as such. |
178 | RENEWALS: Any renewal of this Commercial Lease permitted under the Specific Terms |
179 | shall be on the same terms and conditions as are provided this Commercial Lease and at |
180 | the same rent as was last being paid by Landlord, prior to renewal, being further subject |
181 | to all Cost of Living Adjustments as provided for herein. |
183 | COST OF LIVING INCREASES: If the Cost of Living Increases is selected in the Specific |
184 | Terms, at the times as set out in the Specific Terms of this Commercial Lease the Monthly |
185 | Rent shall be increased to reflect any increase in the cost of living based upon the increase |
186 | in the U.S. Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, as published by the Bureau |
187 | of Labor Statistics for the metropolitan area closest in proximity to the Leased Property (the |
188 | “CPI”). The increase shall be calculated as follows: |
190 | The Initial Monthly Rent called for in this Commercial Lease, multiplied by the |
191 | CPI for most current month before 1110 adjustment is to take effect, divided |
192 | by the CPI for the month that this Commercial Lease commenced shall equal |
193 | the increased Monthly Rent. |
195 | In no event shall the Monthly Rent be decreased under the terms of this section. |

199 | arise. The late charge period is not a grace period and Landlord is entitled to pursue the |
200 | remedies provided herein if rent is not paid when due. All late fees shall be deemed |
201 | additional rent for the rental month and shall be paid and collected as such. |
203 | RETURNED CHECKS: In the event any payment, made by check, to the Landlord by |
204 | Tenant is returned unpaid, whether because of lack of funds, closed account, stop |
205 | payment or otherwise, the Tenant’s payment shall not be considered made until such funds |
206 | are made good. In addition Tenant shall pay the Returned Check Fee set out in the |

216 | Lease. Tenant specifically authorizes Landlord to apply such portion of the performance |
217 | deposit as Landlord deems necessary and at such time as Landlord may deem appropriate |
218 | to offset any delinquent rents, satisfy any liens or attachments levied against the Leased |
219 | Property as a result of judgments, liens or encumbrances incurred by Tenant, or to satisfy |
220 | any other performance required of Tenant. In the event Landlord elects to apply from the |
221 | performance deposit sums to cure any existing or potential default of Tenant, the default |
222 | shall not be deemed cured or satisfied by the application of funds from the performance |
223 | deposit and will not be deemed cured or satisfied until the amount of the performance |
224 | deposit has been restored to its original balance. |

332 | and improvements made by Tenant to or upon the Leased Property (except signs, cases, |
333 | counters, or trade fixtures which shall remain the property of Tenant and be removed by |
334 | Tenant upon termination of this Lease) shall at once, when made or installed, be deemed |
335 | to have attached to the Leased Property and to have become the property of the Landlord. |
336 | However, if prior to termination of this Lease, Landlord so directs, by written notice to |
337 | Tenant, Tenant shall, prior to termination, remove all such alterations, additions and |
338 | improvements which were placed in the Leased Property by the Tenant and which became |
339 | the property of the Landlord pursuant to this provision and which are designated in said |

341 | default thereof, Landlord may effect said removals and repairs at Tenant’s expense. |

348 | Property. Nor shall Tenant cause the Leased Property to be re-keyed without the prior |
349 | written consent of the Landlord and without providing Landlord copies of any new keys. |
351 | LIABILITY INSURANCE: Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, nor insure Tenant, for any |
352 | personal injury or property damage caused by the act or omission of any other Tenant or |
353 | third party, or by any criminal act or activity, war, riot, insurrection, fire or act of God. |
354 | Further, Tenant shall hold Landlord free and harmless from all claims, damages, suits, or |
355 | causes of action resulting from injuries to persons or property and arising in connection |
356 | with Tenant’s operations on the Leased Property or common areas adjacent thereto. |
357 | Tenant shall carry, maintain and deposit proof with the Landlord of public liability insurance |
358 | in such form and with such companies as shall be satisfactory to Landlord, insuring |
359 | Landlord as his/her interest may appear against liability in the minimum amount as stated |
360 | in the Specific Terms of this Commercial Lease. |
362 | HAZARD INSURANCE: Landlord will obtain and maintain insurance on the structure |
363 | housing the Leased Property for purposes of hazards, fire or other casualty in such |
364 | amounts, with such insurers as Landlord deems appropriate. In the event the Specific |
365 | Terms call for the Tenant to pay for such hazard insurance (other than as part of the CAM), |
366 | the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord the amount of the hazard insurance premium on or |
367 | before 15 days before it is due. The hazard insurance to be obtained by the Landlord does |
368 | not provide any protection to Tenant either for interruption of business, loss of the |
369 | structure, or loss of any tenant improvements, trade fixtures, merchandise or other |
370 | personal property. To the extent that Tenant wishes to be protected from loss due to |
371 | interruption of business, loss of the structure, or loss of any tenant improvements, trade |
372 | fixtures, merchandise or other personal property, Tenant shall obtain and maintain at |
373 | Tenant’s sole expense such additional insurance coverage as Tenant may desire. |
375 | ABSENCES: Tenant shall notify Landlord of any anticipated absence of greater than |
376 | seven (7) days or such absence will be considered abandonment of the Leased Property |
377 | and Landlord may reenter and re-rent the Leased Property. |
379 | DEFAULT: Tenant agrees that each of the terms of this Commercial Lease and of the |
380 | Landlord’s Rules and Regulations, if any, constitutes an independent condition of Tenant’s |
381 | right to possession of the Leased Property. If the rent or monies payable by Tenant to |
382 | Landlord due under the terms of this Commercial Lease, or any part thereof, shall remain |
383 | unpaid for the period of time as set out in the Specific Terms after written notice is given |
384 | by Landlord to Tenant, or if any other term, condition or covenant of this Commercial Lease |
385 | to be kept or performed by the Tenant (other than the payment of rent or monies) shall be |
386 | violated or neglected and shall remain so for the period of time as set out in the Specific |
387 | Terms after written notice thereof to the Tenant by Landlord, then the Tenant does hereby |
388 | authorize and fully empower the Landlord to re-enter and take possession of the Leased |
389 | Property immediately without any previous notice of intention to re-enter and remove all |
390 | persons and their property therefrom and to use such force and assistance in effecting and |
391 | perfecting such removal as the Landlord may deem advisable to recover at once full and |
392 | exclusive possession of all of the Leased Property, whether the Leased Property be in |
393 | possession of the Tenant or of third persons, or whether the Leased Property be vacant. |
394 | The Landlord may, however, at his option, at any time after such default or violation of |
395 | condition or covenant, re-enter and take possession of the Leased Property without such |

414 | dispose of said property either by sale or destruction, if property is not removed by Tenant. |
416 | VACATING PRIOR TO TERMINATION: Tenant’s obligations under the terms of this |
417 | Commercial Lease shall not cease upon surrender of Leased Property. Such obligations |

432 | as soon as reasonably possible. Tenant shall be entitled to an equitable abatement of the |

434 | paragraph to the contrary, if more than 75% of the value of the Leased Property is at any |
435 | time destroyed or the Leased Property is condemned, then Landlord may at his election |
436 | and upon notice to Tenant within 30 days after such damage, terminate this Commercial |
437 | Lease as of the date of such damage. |
439 | HOLDOVER: Should the Landlord permit the Tenant to holdover the Leased Property or |
440 | any part thereof after the expiration of the term of this Commercial Lease, unless renewed |
441 | as provided for herein, then, and unless otherwise agreed in writing, such holding over |
442 | shall constitute a tenancy from month-to-month only and shall in no event be construed as |
443 | a renewal of this Commercial Lease and all provisions of this Commercial Lease, not |
444 | inconsistent with a tenancy from month-to-month, shall remain in full force and effect. |
445 | During the month-to-month tenancy, Tenant agrees to give to Landlord thirty (30) days |
446 | prior written notice of Tenant’s intent to vacate. Tenant agrees to vacate upon thirty (30) |
447 | days written notice from the Landlord. |

451 | estoppel certificate shall acknowledge that this Commercial Lease is unmodified and in |
452 | full force, or in full force as modified, and state the modifications. Failure to comply with |
453 | this requirement: (i) shall be deemed Tenant’s acknowledgment that the tenancy statement |
454 | is true and correct, and may be relied upon by a prospective lender or purchaser; and (ii) |
455 | may be treated by Landlord as a material breach of this Commercial Lease. Tenant shall |
456 | also prepare, execute, and deliver to Landlord any financial statement (which will be held |
457 | in confidence) reasonably requested by a prospective lender or buyer. |
459 | LANDLORD’S TRANSFER: Tenant agrees that the transferee of Landlord’s interest in the |
460 | Leased Property shall be substituted as Landlord under this Commercial Lease. Landlord |

466 | at Landlord’s option, the lien of any first deed of trust or first mortgage subsequently placed |
467 | upon the real property of which the Premises are a part, and to any advances made on the |
468 | security of the Premises, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, |
469 | and extensions. However, as to the lien of any deed of trust or mortgage entered into after |
470 | execution of this Commercial Lease, Tenant’s right to quiet possession of the Leased |
471 | Property shall not be disturbed if Tenant is not in default and so long as Tenant pays the |
472 | Rent and observes and performs all of the provisions of this Commercial Lease, unless the |
473 | Commercial Lease is otherwise terminated pursuant to its terms. If any mortgagee, |
474 | trustee, or ground Landlord elects to have this Commercial Lease placed in a security |
475 | position prior to the lien of a mortgage, deed of trust, or ground lease, and gives written |
476 | notice to Tenant, this Commercial Lease shall be deemed prior to that mortgage, deed of |
477 | trust, or ground lease, or the date of recording. |
479 | COMMON AREA MAINTENANCE (CAM): If so indicated in the Specific Terms, Tenant |
480 | agrees to pay a proportionate share of the Landlord’s estimated monthly common area |
481 | maintenance costs (CAM), including but not limited to costs for maintenance of common |

485 | The Tenant’s share of the CAM shall be paid at the same time and with the Monthly Rent |
486 | otherwise due from the Tenant. On an annual basis the Landlord shall reconcile the actual |
487 | cost of the CAM for the preceding year, and to extent the CAM paid by the Tenant |
488 | exceeded the actual cost of the CAM the Tenant’s CAM for the following twelve months |
489 | shall be reduced, and to the extent the CAM paid by the Tenant was less than the actual |
490 | cost of the CAM, the Tenant’s CAM for the following twelve months shall be increased to |
491 | adjust for the discrepancy. |
