WATER RIGHTS
According to the Department of Natural Resources and Conservation, North Fork Ranch owns a total of 128 water rights of which 124 are stock rights.
The main sources for the stock rights include unnamed tributaries of Milk River – North Fork, Milk River – Middle Fork, Squaw Creek, Willow Creek,
Saint Mary River, and Hall Coulee. For a complete list of water rights and additional information please contact the Swan Land Company Bozeman

The Ranch is well watered with many natural potholes, streams, headwaters of area river beds, springs, improved wells and water from the St. Mary’s
Canal. Each pasture has several water sources, providing easy access by cattle to fresh, cold and clean water.
All water rights in Montana are subject to eventual re-adjudication by the Montana Water Court and, as a result of that process, may be changed as to
validity, amount, priority date, place of use and other such changes as the Court determines. This Basin is currently being adjudicated. The Sellers
have made all of the filings currently required and will transfer the water rights as they currently stand with no warranty of future viability.
MINERAL RIGHTS
The Sellers will convey with the Ranch 100% of whatever mineral, oil, gas, geo-thermal, hydro-carbon and gravel rights they actually own, subject to
reservations by previous owners and conservation easement restrictions. The Sellers make no representation as to the quantity or quality of any mineral
or other sub-surface rights appurtenant to the Ranch.
