4517 and to describe and formalize the goals,guidelines,rights and obligations of TPL and the City
in creating the Park, and to guide the parties in their collaborative efforts to successfully complete
the Park Project.
NOW,THEREFORE,in order to define the goals, guidelines,rights and obligations of the
Parties toward each other and toward third parties in carrying out the creation of the Park as
contemplated by Commission Resolution No.4517,TPL and the City agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. General Description of Park Proiect. The general goals of the Park Project are to create a
public park on the Park Property; serve as a central hub linking City and Gallatin County trails;
provide fishing and recreation access to the East Gallatin River; and improve water quality for
the City through the wetland and stream restoration work described below. The goal of the
Parties is to include the following components in the Park Project:
1.1 an active recreational area of approximately 20 acres lying north of East Griffin Drive
including such typical park amenities as a parking lot, sheltered picnic tables,benches,
restrooms, signage and fencing,playgrounds and active play areas, an enclosed off-leash
dog area and a network of trails and paths,and
1.2 a passive recreational area of approximately 35 acres lying south of East Griffin Drive
that will be left largely in its natural condition and used as a wetlands and wildlife
sanctuary traversed by trails and barrier-free accessible paths,providing a scenic refuge
and a living classroom demonstrating the importance of wetlands to water quality and
ecological health.
The Parties understand and agree that certain features as represented on the Conceptual Park Plan
Exhibit B)may not be constructed as they may not be included in the Park Master Plan and/or
detailed phased site plans approved by the City Commission.
Once acquired by the City,the Park Property shall be designated as open-space land for purposes
of the Open Space Land and Voluntary Conservation Easement Act(Title 76, Chpt. 6,MCA).
2. Specific Park Proiects Tasks to be Completed. The Parties acknowledge that the foregoing
Section 1 reflects the general goals of the Park Project as approved by the City Commission, and
that the general goals will be incorporated into a master site development plan(the"Park Master
Page 2 of 11
Plan")following the City's planning process. Therefore the list of specific project tasks to be
completed, and the party responsible for completing the tasks,will need to be informed by the
results of the planning process and this MOU may be amended accordingly from time to time as
mutually agreed by the Parties as the planning documents are completed.
Identified Specific Park Project Tasks. Notwithstanding the foregoing,TPL and the City have
identified a number of specific tasks that will be completed in any event. Those tasks consist of
the following:
2.1 Ecological Restoration. In order to improve the ecological health of the wetland and
riparian areas on the Park Property, TPL has or will undertake a number of wetland and
floodplain restoration activities on the Park Property that will include the removal and
disposal of rip rap, concrete,trash and other debris from the East Gallatin River,
expansions of the East Gallatin River floodplain in general conformance with the
Floodplain Development Permit issued August 22, 2014 for the Park Property,the
installation of sediment and erosion control features,the filling of drainage ditches and
naturalization of an existing groundwater-fed pond, creation of a backwater slough along
Bozeman Creek, and wetland,riparian and upland reclamation and seeding for vegetative
diversity(the"Ecological Restoration"). TPL has initiated the Ecological Restoration
work. Following the conveyance of the Park Property to the City, TPL will continue to
be responsible for the completion of the Ecological Restoration work and will, for a
period of at least one year after completion, continue to periodically monitor,maintain,
and supplement the restoration work in order to help ensure that the restoration work is
successful to the extent reasonably possible. Any maintenance agreements entered into
by TPL as a condition of grant(s)received by TPL related to the Ecological Restoration
will be assigned to the City. The City will grant to TPL and its contractors a temporary
construction easement or license through the duration of the Ecological Restoration work
to allow TPL to continue the Ecological Restoration work once the Park Property is
conveyed to the City,but will otherwise have no responsibility for its completion. TPL
will be responsible for all contract payments to TPL staff, contractors and subcontractors
performing the Ecological Restoration work. The cost of the Ecological Restoration
work shall not be paid or deducted from the TPL Contribution,but shall be paid for by
TPL using funds other than the TPL Contribution, The Ecological Restoration work shall
not be considered a public work and shall not be subject to the requirements of Section 4
relating to the City's procurement requirements.
2.2 Removal of Structures. There are a number of derelict and abandoned structures on the
Park Property. During its ownership of the Park Property, TPL has arranged for the
demolition and removal of those structures known as the farmstead or farmplex structures
located on Tract 17 COS 2865 and the garage building located on Tract 1 COS 2865.
The costs incurred by TPL,including contract payment to third parties,will be included
as part of the TPL Contribution. Following the conveyance of the Park Property to the
Page 3 of 11
City,the City will be responsible for deciding whether it wants to retain or demolish and
remove the two remaining historic buildings (Vollmer Slaughterhouse and Rendering
Plant,located on Tract 1 COS 2865)in accordance with applicable historic district
regulations. If the City elects to retain some or all of such structures,the City shall be
responsible for any rehabilitation or restoration work necessary to preserve and maintain
such structures to make them safe for use as part of the Park. TPL may elect to
participate in cost-sharing of such activities as part of the TPL Contribution.
3. Private Fundraising Campaign. TPL will design and implement a private fundraising
campaign for TPL's Contribution to the Park Project(the"Campaign"). The goal of the
Campaign will be to raise sufficient private funds to cover the TPL Contribution, as well to raise
sufficient funds to cover the costs of conducting the Campaign itself. TPL will use reasonable,
good faith efforts to raise private funds in an amount sufficient to at least equal the TPL
Contribution. All cash donations or grants received by TPL as part of the Campaign will be held
by TPL prior to disbursement of such funds for design and construction of the Park Project
pursuant to the terms of this MOU. TPL will be responsible for(i) collecting all gifts, (ii)
acknowledging each gift, (iii)providing regular updates on the progress of the fundraising efforts
to the City, and(iv)disbursing such funds to cover agreed-upon Park Project-related costs. The
City acknowledges and agrees that, while TPL shall use reasonable and good faith efforts to
achieve its fundraising target,TPL is not a guarantor of such funds. TPL agrees to keep the City
informed of its progress on the Campaign as part of the Parties' regular progress meetings during
the life of the Park Project.
4. Proiect Management. The Parties intend to work together in a collaborative manner for the
development of the Park, allowing the Park Project to benefit from each Party's particular
expertise and skills. The Parties intend that TPL will manage the overall design, development,
and construction through completion of the Park and that the City will be responsible for costs
associated with the construction and installation of certain park infrastructure, as was
contemplated in the allocation of tasks in the preliminary park budget included in TPL's
application to the TOP program. The Parties also intend that TPL will follow the same
procurement requirements the City would be required to follow for a public works project.
4.1 Park Master Planning Process. TPL will engage the services of a professional design
firm to refine the conceptual site plan submitted by TPL with its TOP program
application into the Park Master Plan. TPL will work with the City's Recreation,Parks
and Advisory Board to coordinate all required public meeting requirements in accordance
with state open meeting laws in order to obtain the City's review and approval of the Park
Master Plan. TPL will be responsible for costs incurred in connection with the work of
the design firm commissioned by TPL. All fees paid by TPL for(i)work on planning
and design of the Park since the City Commission's adoption of Resolution 4517 on
March 24,2014 and (ii)to the selected design firm and any other third party in preparing
the Park planning documents may be included by TPL as part of the TPL Contribution.

including invoices,receipts, etc. The City's Representative will review the payment
request and upon approval will pay through the City's accounts payable process.

and generally keep the City informed on the progress of all such work.
4.2.6 If TPL or any of its contractors discovers any environmental contamination during the
project, all work will stop within the affected area,TPL shall notify the City, and such
work shall not resume until the City and TPL agree upon a mutually satisfactory
resolution.
5. Park Proiect Budget. The City and TPL have developed a preliminary budget for the Park
Project, a copy of which is attached to this MOU as Exhibit C and hereby incorporated by this
reference(the"Project Budget"). The Project Budget is preliminary in nature,based on the
information known to the Parties as of the date of this MOU. The Project Budget will be
updated, amended and refined over time as a result of the planning process and the results of
construction bidding.
5.1 Once the Park Master Planning process has been completed and the estimated costs of the
various components of the Park have been better identified,then the Project Budget will
be revised to identify specific costs related to on-site Park improvements, as well as
which party will be responsible for the cost of which tasks and how the cost of those
tasks will be funded. The Revised Project Budget will,to the extent possible,identify
Page 6 of 11
which budget items TPL will pay for using in-kind services, which will be paid for with
funds contributed by TPL, and which will be paid for using funding from the TOP Bond
Fund. TPL and the City will at all times manage the Park Project in such a manner as to
ensure that the Park is constructed consistent with the approved Park Master Plan and
budget as approved by the City Commission. The Revised Project Budget agreed upon
by the Parties will be attached to this MOU as an amendment and incorporated herein by
reference.
5.2 As to budget items to be paid for with the TPL Contribution,the parties will agree to the
specific timing and documentation required in order to release such funds. TPL agrees to
provide invoices and such other documentation sufficient to evidence to the City's
satisfaction the value of any in-kind contributions to the Park Project. Where the value of
the in-kind contribution is not readily ascertainable,TPL's contribution will be at the
rates established in then-current Bureau of Labor Statistics Schedule of Occupational and
employment Wage Estimates for the State of Montana(available at
http:://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes mt.htm#47-0000)or as otherwise mutually agreed by
the Parties.
5.3 Costs to be paid by the City must be approved by the City in writing after bidding and
prior to construction contract award to ensure costs to be paid are substantially in
conformance with the Revised Project Budget as approved by the City Commission. If
the construction contract bid exceeds the amount budgeted for park improvements in the
Master Park Plan, an amendment to the Revised Project Budget must be presented to the
Commission for approval before construction commences.
5.4 Each Party has control over allocation of contingency funds identified in the project
budget as being associated with that Party.

retrievable form if existing and Seller's possession or control (including
any of the foregoing prepared by consultants or other third parties on
behalf of Seller) that relate to the Property other than documents or
information that are privileged or have been provided to Seller under a
binding confidentiality agreement (collectively, the "Property
Documents"). If this Agreement is terminated as permitted hereunder or
the purchase and sale of the Property fails to close because of a failure of
any of the Buyer's or Seller's Conditions Precedent (as set forth in
Sections 12 and 13 below), Buyer shall promptly return to Seller all copies
of the Property Documents Seller has previously provided to Buyer.
B. The City Commission of the City of Bozeman authorized the purchase of the
Property under the terms set forth in Commission Resolution No. 4517, adopted on March 24,
2014.
C. Buyer wishes to purchase the Property from Seller and Seller wishes to sell the

AGREEMENTS:
1. Sale and Purchase. Buyer agrees to purchase the Property from Seller and Seller
agrees to sell the Property to Buyer for a price of$2,650,000.00 (Two Million Six Hundred Fifty
Thousand Dollars) (the"Purchase Price"). Buyer and Seller understand and acknowledge that,
prior to the conveyance of the Property to Buyer under this Agreement, Seller will be engaging
in a number of land use actions that are intended to improve the Property and enhance it for
Buyer's intended use. These actions include initiating work to restore the wetlands and
floodplain on the Property, and removing one or more structures from the Land, and are more
fully described in a binding Memorandum of Understanding between the Parties dated December
4, 2014 ("MOU") . All of these actions are being taken with the knowledge and consent of
Buyer pursuant to the MOU for the purpose of enhancing the Property for Buyer's intended use.
Therefore, regardless of the impact any such actions might have on the appraised fair market
value of the Property, there shall be no adjustment made to the Purchase Price to reflect any
changes to the Property resulting from any approved work or activities conducted by Seller.
Seller hereby forever releases and waives any claim against Buyer for payment for any amount
for the Property in excess of the Purchase Price.
2. Payment of Purchase Price. At Closing, Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price in
cash(by cashier's check or wire transfer).
3. License for Seller's Use of the Property after Closing. Buyer and Seller shall
enter into the License Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit C and incorporated herein by
Story Mill Community Park:
Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement Buyer's Initials �f
Page 2 of 9 Seller's Initials �' C
reference prior to Closing and to be effective immediately upon Closing for the purposes of
providing permission for Seller to complete improvements to the Property begun by Seller prior
to the transfer of the Property by the Seller to the Buyer and for other purposes as set forth in the
MOU.
4. Closing. The transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall close on a date
mutually agreeable to Seller and Buyer, but, unless agreed to by the Parties, no later than
December 31, 2014 (the "Closing") or ("Closing Date"). The Closing will be at Security Title in
Bozeman, Montana. Seller will pay for the cost to release liens, if any, and any other documents
necessary to convey clear title to the Buyer. Seller shall pay the escrow fee, the premium on a
standard homeowner's title insurance policy in favor of Buyer in the amount of the Purchase
Price, and the recording fee for the statutory warranty deed. Real Property taxes and any special
assessments still existing on the Property as of the date of Closing shall be prorated and paid by
Seller as of the date of Closing based upon the latest available tax bill.
5. Preliminary Title Commitment. Within ten (10) days after mutual execution of
this Agreement, Seller shall order a Property Preliminary Title Commitment showing the
condition of title to the Property in the amount of the Purchase Price, together with legible copies
of all instruments of record affecting the Property from Security Title in Bozeman, Montana.
6. Deeds. At Closing, Seller shall execute and deliver to Buyer a statutory warranty
deed conveying marketable title to the Property to Buyer, free and clear of all liens and
encumbrances, subject only to easements, declarations, covenants, conditions, restrictions and
other matters of record as are acceptable to Buyer. Seller shall convey by Bill of Sale and
Assignment executed by Seller, title to the Property Documents and any water rights (the `Bill of
Sale").
7, Conditions Precedent. Buyer's obligation to purchase the Property from Seller
is expressly contingent on Buyer's satisfaction with each of the following conditions precedent:
7.1 Buyer having conducted on or before seven (7) days prior to the Closing
Date an inspection of the Property and approved the physical condition of
the Property (including but not limited to review of soils, environmental
condition, septic, wells, zoning, title, and any other due diligence required
by Buyer ("Buyer's Due Diligence Period")). During the Buyer's Due
Diligence Period, Seller will allow Buyer access to the Property upon prior
notice and will allow Buyer and/or Buyer's agents to conduct such
inspections or examinations as Buyer deems necessary. Buyer may at any
time prior to the end of the Buyer's Due Diligence Period, by written
notice delivered to Seller, elect to either (i) purchase the Property (subject
to any other conditions contained herein), in which event this Agreement
Story Mill Community Park.-
Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement Buyer's Initials
Page 3 of 9 Seller's Initials c.�
shall continue to be in full force and effect or (ii) terminate this
Agreement. Failure to give such notice shall be deemed an election by
Buyer to waive its right to terminate pursuant to this Section 7.1. Upon
Seller's receipt of written notice terminating the Agreement or the failure
of Buyer to respond one way or the other prior to the expiration of the Due
Diligence Period, this Agreement shall immediately terminate and be no
further force or effect.
7.2 Buyer shall have approved the Preliminary Title Commitment.
7.3 Buyer and Seller shall have entered into the MOU providing for
the design and construction of a public park on the Property (the
"Park"). The MOU shall be mutually agreeable to Buyer and
Seller and shall have been approved by the Bozeman City
Commission.
7.4 The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of Buyer and
Seller respectively. In the event the foregoing conditions are not
satisfied or waived prior to Closing, then either Party may
terminate this Agreement, and any earnest money and accrued
interest held in escrow for the benefit of Buyer shall be returned to
Buyer.
8. Title Insurance. At Closing, Seller shall, at its expense, provide Buyer a
standard owner's policy of title insurance for the Property in a sum equal to the Purchase Price,
insuring Buyer against loss or damage sustained by it by reason of the unmarketability of its title,
or encumbrances thereon, other than the exceptions contained in such policies which Buyer
previously has approved. Buyer shall be responsible for the cost of any extended title insurance
or endorsements to the title insurance policy.
9. Delivery of Documents. Seller agrees, within ten (10) business days of mutual
execution of this Agreement, to provide Buyer with complete copies of any and all Property
Documents in Seller's, or their agents' possession, as defined in Recital A above. Both Parties
agree to execute and deliver to the other at or after the Closing, at requestor's expense, any and
