565, LOCATED IN THE SE 1/4 OF SECTION 3, TOWNSHIP 2 SOUTH, RANGE 5
EAST,P.M.M., GALLATIN COUNTY,MONTANA.
2. Improvements
This Agreement specifically includes the following required improvements for Partridge
Downs Subdivision Phase 1B (the "Subdivision"): sidewalks along all private lots (the above are
referred to as the"Improvements").
The estimated cost of the Improvements has been estimated by the Subdivider's agent,
C&H Engineering & Surveying, Inc., 1091 Stoneridge Drive, Bozeman, MT 59718, at Thirteen
Thousand,Five-Hundred and Twenty-Two Dollars and Sixty Cents ($13,522.60). The estimate is
attached and hereby made a part of this Agreement,as Exhibit"A".
3. Financial Guarantee, Tune for Completion of Improvcments, Additional
Restrictions
A. The Subdivider represents and agrees it will complete all Improvements as required by
Findings of Fact and Order for the Subdivision within thirty-six(36)months of the date of
recording of the final plat. In reliance on such representation, the City consents to the
Subdivider filing the final plat prior to completion of the required Improvements. The
Subdivider must maintain adequate financial security guaranteeing the completion of the
Improvements until such Improvements are accepted by the City. The Subdivider's
performance under this Agreement is specifically guaranteed and secured by irrevocable
standby Letter of Credit No. m in the amount of$47,722.50 from
Partridge Downs,Phase JB—Improvements Agreement Page 2 of 11
(Bank of Bozeman-875 Harmon Stream Blvd,Bozeman.MT.59718)
This letter of credit constitutes the"Financial Security."
B. Notwithstanding the time frame for completion of the Improvements stated in subsection A of this
section,the City agrees the Subdivider may defer completion of the following Improvements to not
later than thirty-six(36)months of the filing of the final plat for the Subdivision: sidewalks along
all private lots.
C. Subdivider acknowledges and agrees the Financial Security is specifically provided for the benefit
of the City to guarantee and secure completion of the Improvements within the timeframes
specified above and that the Financial Security may be drawn upon by the City without notice to
the Subdivider and used by the City for completion of the Improvements in its sole discretion but
only if the Subdivider fails to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
D. Subdivider acknowledges the Financial Security lapses on and is subject
to automatic renewal in one year increments but in no case is the Financial Security valid beyond
. Subdivider also acknowledges the issuer of the Financial Security may
give notice to the City of its intent to not renew the Financial Security but must do so no less than
thirty(30)days prior to the expiration of the Financial Security or the Financial Security is extended
for an additional year. As a result of the above, the Subdivider agrees that if the issuer of the
Financial Security provides notice to the City of non-renewal of the Financial Security prior to the
completion of all of the Improvements such non-renewal may place the Subdivider in breach of
this Agreement. In such a case, the Subdivider must, within ten (10) days of the Subdivider
acquiring information of the issuer's intent not to renew the Financial Security or the City's notice
to the Subdivider that the City received a notice from the issuer of the Financial Security that the
issuer intends to not renew the Financial Security,whichever is earlier,provide the City alternative
financial security in a form acceptable to the City. Subdivider agrees that failure to provide such
alternative financial security within 10 days of the City's notice or the Subdivider acquiring
knowledge of the issuer's non-renewal shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement and
the City may, without any further notice to the Subdivider, draw upon the Financial Security for
the costs of any outstanding Improvements at 150% of the City's estimate cost of such
Improvements regardless of the costs estimates included in Exhibit A and regardless of whether the
timeframe for completion of such improvements has passed.

E. The Subdivider agrees that no delegation of performance required by this agreement shall relieve
the Subdivider of any duty to perform or any liability for the breach of that duty to complete said
subdivision improvements required for the Subdivision.
F. Upon submission of fully documented invoices for the work performed, said work to be inspected
and certified for payment by Subdivider's professional engineers and the City and or its agents as
necessary,the City may release a portion of the Financial Security for the work completed by the
referenced invoices.
4. Inspection
Representatives of the City shall have the right to enter upon the Subdivision at any
reasonable time in order to inspect it and to determine if the Subdivider is in compliance with this
Agreement, and the Subdivider shall permit the City and its representatives to enter upon and
inspect the Subdivision at any reasonable time.
5. Default
Time is of the essence of this Agreement. If the Subdivider shall default in or fail to fully
perform any of its obligations in conformance with the time schedule under this Agreement, and

City's representative, contractors, and engineers shall have the right to enter upon
the Subdivision and perform such work and inspection, and the Subdivider shall

intentional misconduct of any of the Subdivider' s agents in regards to the Subdivision. Such

construed to negate, abridge, or reduce any common-law or statutory rights of the indemnitee(s)
which would otherwise exist as to such indemnitee(s). Subdivider's indemnity under this Section

court of competent jurisdiction determines the Subdivider was obligated to defend the claim(s) or
was obligated to indemnify the indemnitee for a claim(s) or any portion(s)thereof.
In the event of an action filed against City or any of the indemnitee(s) resulting from the
City's performance under this Agreement, the City or an indemnitee may elect to represent itself
