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.
125 The parties hereto, all agree that the transaction contemplated by this document may be conducted by
126 electronic means in accordance with the Montana Uniform Electronic Act.

170 RENT: Rent is payable in advance or on or before 5:00 p.m. on the day indicated on for
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.
   
197 LATE CHARGE: In the event rent is not paid by the date set out in the Specific Terms of
198 this Commercial Lease, a late charge in the amount set forth in the Specific Terms shall
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
207 Specific Terms of this Commercial Lease and from that time forward all payments must be
208 in the form of a cashier’s check or money order.

211 and obligations required of the Tenant as set forth in this Commercial Lease, during its

215 funds for satisfying Tenant’s performance obligations under the term of this Commercial
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.

323 repair of the Leased Property, nor as to Landlord’s intentions with respect to any
324 improvements, alteration, decoration or repair of the Leased Property, have been made
325 to Tenant, unless provided in this Commercial Lease. Tenant shall not make any
326 alterations on or additions to the Leased Property nor make any contract therefor without
327 prior written consent of the Landlord. Further, Tenant will not place or cause to be placed
328 or maintained on any interior or exterior door, wall or window of the Leased Property any
329 sign, awning, canopy, advertising matter or other thing of any kind, and will not place or

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

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

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.

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
396 re-entering working a forfeiture of the rents to be paid and the covenants to be kept and
397 performed by such Tenant for the full term of this Lease. In such case, the Landlord may

 

 

 

 

 

399 re-let the Leased Property for Tenant’s account and may make such repairs, alterations
400 and additions in or to the Leased Property as Tenant was obligated to make but had failed
401 to make during Tenant’s occupancy, and Tenant shall, upon demand, pay the cost thereof
402 together with Landlord’s expense of the re-letting. If the consideration collected by
403 Landlord upon any such re-letting for Tenant’s account is not sufficient to pay monthly the
404 full amount of the rent reserved in this Commercial Lease together with costs of such
405 repairs, alterations, and additions permitted under this paragraph and Landlord’s expenses,
406 Tenant shall pay to the Landlord the amount of each monthly deficiency on demand, and
407 if the consideration so collected from such re-letting is more than sufficient to pay the full
408 amount of the rent reserved herein, Landlord may retain the same and Landlord, at the end
409 of the stated term of the Lease, shall account for the surplus to Tenant.
411 ABANDONED PERSONAL PROPERTY: Upon termination of tenancy, if the Tenant fails
412 to remove personal property from the Leased Property, Landlord agrees to give Tenant
413 fifteen (15) days notice, at Tenant’s last known address, of the date Landlord intends to
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
418 shall continue until this Commercial Lease expires.
420 TERMINATION OF TENANCY: Upon termination of tenancy, Tenant shall return Leased
421 Property to Landlord in as good condition and repair as when received, ordinary wear
422 and tear excepted, and free of all Tenant’s personal property, Tenant’s fixtures, trash and
423 debris.
425 KEYS: Tenant is responsible for the cost of re-keying, if all keys are not returned upon
426 vacating. Tenant acknowledges that locks may not have been changed prior to taking
427 occupancy. Tenant has the option of requesting that the Landlord re-key the Leased
428 Property at Tenant expense.
430 DAMAGE/DESTRUCTION: In the event the Leased Property shall be damaged by any
431 casualty, Landlord shall repair such damage and put the Leased Property in good condition
432 as soon as reasonably possible. Tenant shall be entitled to an equitable abatement of the
433 Monthly Rent during the reconstruction period. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
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.
449 ESTOPPEL: Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord any estoppel certificates
450 delivered to Tenant by Landlord or Landlord’s agent, within 3 days after its receipt. The
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
461 will be released of any further obligation to Tenant regarding any deposits transferred to
462 the transferee. For all other obligations under this Commercial Lease, Landlord is released
463 of any further liability to Tenant, upon Landlord’s transfer.
465 SUBORDINATION: This Commercial Lease shall be subordinate to all existing liens and
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
482 areas, utility and service costs, janitorial costs, snow removal, insurance, real estate taxes,
483 and any other cost or expense related to maintenance or operation of the common areas.
484 Tenant’s share of the CAM shall equal the percentage as stated in the Specific Terms.
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.
