Development Agreement, Page I
I . Continuation of Extraterritorial Status. The Property shall not be annexed and shall
remain in the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the City for so long as the Property is not
subdivided and continues to be appraised for ad valorem tax purposes as land for

Code, or as timber land under Subchapter E of that chapter. This provision does not
prohibit annexation with the consent of the Owner.

245 of the Texas Local Government Code. In addition, the City specifically reserves its
authority pursuant to Chapter 251 of the Texas Local Government Code to exercise
eminent domain over the Property.

connection with voluntary annexation pursuant to this section, the Owner hereby
waives any vested rights the Owner may have under Section 43.002(a)(2) and
