3l Exxon andthe City of Baytown recognize that in the past Exxon has paid
«
a share of the needed revenue for operating the City and providing services for its
residents.It is further recognized that during the next succeeding sevenyears the
City of Baytown will experience population growth as a result of industrial expansion
which will necessitate increased revenue to provide expanded service and facilities.
In view of this increased need for revenue,Exxon agrees to pay the City of Baytown
an Industrial District payment on or before January 31 ofeach year during the term
of this agreement an amount to be calculated on the basis of the following formula,
except forcalendaryears 1974 and 1975 as hereinafter provided in Paragraph 4:
Exxon's Industrial District value,as defined below,x 0.06 x the
property tax rate per $100 of assessed valuation adopted by the
City Council for the City of Baytown for financing the fiscal year
in which such January 31 due date falls.
In applying the above formula,the factor referred to as "Exxon's
Industrial District Value"shall be defined as:
(A)The fair market value of Exxon's Baytown Plant within the City's
jurisdiction as of January 1 of the calendar year next preceding the
calendar year in which such January 31 due date falls,less;
(B)The fair market value of that portion of Exxon's Baytown Plant
annexed to the City of Baytown,which 'is 202 of the fair market value
within the City's jurisdictional area as of January 1 of the calendar
year next preceding the calendar year in which such January 31 due
date falls,except for calendar years 1974 and 1975 as hereinafter
.;•provided.
Annual payments under this Agreement shall be calculated bythe City
of Baytown in the above stated manner.Determination of City and Industrial
District fair market values,in the above stated manner,shall be made by
City of Baytown and approved by the Board of Equalization.Such final fair
market value as approved by the Board of Equalization shall be subject to
exception by Exxon andshould Exxon take exception to the fair market value
of such property as determined by the Board and should the Board and Exxon
be unable,through negotiations,to reach a mutually acceptable fair market
value on or before September 1 of the calendar year next preceding the calendar
year in which such January 31 due date falls,then either party may request
-3-
/p
determination of such disagreement by a mutually acceptable arbitrator.The cost
of such arbitrator shall be shared equally by the City of Baytown and Exxon,and
such arbitrator's determination shall be final and binding unless either party
"within thirty (30)days after such arbitrator's determination is received by
the parties,petitions for a Declaratory Judgment to the Civil District Court
of Harris County,Texas,as provided for by Section 5 hereof.
Should the parties be unable to agree upon a mutual.ly acceptable arbi-
itrator,each party shall nominate one arbitrator and the arbitrators so nominated
by the parties shall select a third arbitrator who will act withthem as a three-
member arbitration panel to decide the disagreement between the parties by the
concurrence of a majority of such panel.Such arbitrator or arbitration panel
shall determine whether the fair market value of such property is as contended
by the Board of Equalization,by Exxon,or some intermediate value.The cost
ofsuch arbitration panel shall be shared equally by the City of Baytown and
Exxon,and.such panel's determination shall be final and binding unless either
party withinthirty (30)days after such determination is received by the parties,
petitions for a Declaratory Judgment to the Civil District Court of Harris County,
Texas,as provided for by Section 5 hereof.
In determining the fair market value of property and improvements as
used herein,the Board of Equalization and anyarbitrator or arbitration panel
shall base its determination on the replacement costof comparable present day
facilities consideringand giving effect to sound engineering valuation practices
relative to.service life,life expectancy,process and functional obsolescence.
^..4".Exxon and the City of Baytown recognize the necessity of uniform
application of Industrial District provisions.Exxon and the City further recognize
that such uniform application will require some annexations and some disannexations
of industrial areas over the period 1974 to 1976.Timing differences in such an
nexations and disannexations could reduce assessed valuesfor the City of Baytown
for this period.In viewof the need for maintaining current levels of industrial
-4-
assessed values during this period,Exxon will render to the City in 1974 and
1S75 a minimum value of Fifty-Five Million,Two Hundred One Thousand,One Hundred
Thirty Dollars ($55,201,130)for the portion of its Baytown Plant annexed tothe
City.This value equates to the final 1973 assessed tax value base as determined
by the City's Board of Equalization.
Exxon and the City of Baytown agree that Exxon's totalannual payment to
the City for 1974 will be based onan ad valorem tax payment-plus an Industrial
District payment.The total payment will consist of an ad valorem tax payment on
a minimum of Fifty-Five Million,Two Hundred One Thousand,One Thirty Dollars
($55,201,130)plus an Industrial District payment sufficient to bring the total
payment to Nine Hundred Sixty-One Thousand,Seven Hundred Forty-Two Dollars
($961,742).
Exxon and the City of Baytown agree that Exxon's total annual payment to
the City forthe year 1975 will be based on the Industrial District payment formula
as provided in Section 3,plus anad valorem tax payment.The total payment would
consist of the ad valorem tax applicable toan assessed value of Fifty-Five Million,
Two Hundred One Thousand,One Hundred Thirty Dollars ($55,201,130)and a variable
Industrial District payment to be determined by substracting the aforementioned
ad valorem tax from a total amount calculated using anad valorem tax payment based
on twenty (20%)percent of the market value of Exxon'sBaytown Plant within the
City's jurisdictionand an Industrial District payment based2on eighty (80%)percent
of the market value of the plant within the City's jurisdiction,as defined in
Section 3.^.Such total payment shall not be less than the ad valorem tax applicable
to an assessed value of Fifty-Five Million,Two Hundred One Thousand,One Hundred
Thirty Dollars ($55,201,130)even if the calculated payment using the Section 3
market value percentages is lower.
5.If any disagreement arises between the parties concerning the inter
pretationof this Agreement or the decisions of the arbitrator or arbitration
panel provided for hereunder,it is agreed that either of said parties may petition
any Civil District Courtof Harris County,Texas,for a Declaratory Judgment de
termining said controversy and the cause shall be tried as other civil causes in
-5-
which plaintiff must establishby a preponderance of the evidence the correct in
terpretation ofvaluation.Pending final determination ofsaid controversy,Exxon
shall pay to the City of Baytown on the due date the same amount which it paid to
the City for the last preceding period as to which there was no controversy con
cerning the amount owed by Exxon to the City.Exxon agrees to tender the amount
of potential liability to the registry of the Civil District Court,Harris County,
Texas,pending final determination of the controversybeyond.any further appeal.
6.All payment of the City of Baytown provided for herein shall bemade
to the City at the City Hall in Baytown,Texas.If any payment is not made on or
before the due date,the same penalties,interest,attorneys'fees and costs of
collection shall be recoverable by the City as would be collectible in the case
of delinquent ad valorem taxes;provided,however,that this sentence shall not
apply to anypayment which may be found to have been deficient as the result of
proceedings provided for in Section 5 hereof.The City shall have a lien upon
any delinquency in Industrial District payment.
7.If anyother municipality attempts to annex any land or property
owned,used,occupied,leased,rentedor possessed by Exxon within the area
designated as Baytown Industrial District No.1,more particularly described
in Appendix A to this agreement,or if the creation of anynew municipality
should be attempted so as to include within its -limits any of such land or
property,the Cityof Baytown shall,with the cooperation of=Exxon,seek in-
junctive relief against any such annexation or incorporation,and shall take
such other legal steps as may be necessary or advisable under the circumstances.
The cost^pf such legal steps,including fees of attorneys (other than the City
Attorney)retained by mutual agreement of the parties,shall be paid by Exxon.

necessary or advisable in its own name or in the name of the City and,ifne
cessary,Exxon may join the City as a party to any such legal action.
