In consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants and agreements herein
contained, it is agreed by and between the Company and the City of Baytown as follows:
1. The findings contained in the preamble hereof are declared to be true and
correct and are hereby adopted.
2. The City of Baytown hereby agrees that all of the improvements thereon
owned, used, occupied, leased, rented or possessed by the Company within the area
designated as Baytown Industrial District No. 3 by Ordinance No. 899 and amendments
thereto shall continue its extraterritorial status as an Industrial District and shall not be
annexed by the City of Baytown nor shall the City attempt to annex, or in any way cause
or permit to be annexed, any of such property during the term of this Agreement, except
for such parts of the Company's property as may be necessary to annex in order to annex
property owned by third parties within the Industrial District that the City may decide to
annex. The City further agrees, promises and guarantees that, during the term of this
Agreement, the City of Baytown shall not apply or purport to apply any ordinance, rule
0 2
® or regulation to either the Industrial District area described in Appendix A or certain
portions of the Company's Baytown Plant and facilities which have been annexed by the
City of Baytown, which areas, both annexed and otherwise, are jointly described in the
map attached as Appendix B, except as relating to noise, vibration, drainage or flood
control, and pollution performance standards as hereinafter provided. Specifically, but
without limitation, the City agrees, promises and guarantees that it will not extend to the
property described by Appendix A any ordinance, rule or regulation (a) governing plats
and the subdivision of land; (b) prescribing any zoning, building, electrical, plumbing or
inspection code or codes; and (c) attempting to exercise in any manner whatsoever
control of the conduct of the Company's business thereof. The Company shall not be
required to obtain building permits for construction of structures, other than those
structures that enclose a space used for sheltering any Group A, B, E, F, I, M, R, and S
occupancies, as defined in the Southern Standard Building Code and that are located on
the annexed property within the area described by Appendix B, but the Company does
agree that any structure built within the area described by Appendix A shall be built in
accordance with the latest edition of the Southern Standard Building Code. The City
further agrees that, during the term of this Agreement, it will not levy or purport to levy
ad valorem taxes against any real or personal property owned, used, occupied, leased,
rented, or possessed by the Company within the Industrial District.
3. It is further agreed that, during the term of this Agreement, the City of
Baytown shall not be required to furnish municipal services to the Company's Baytown
Plant, which are located within the Industrial District or the annexed areas noted in
0 3
Appendix B, ordinarily and customarily supplied by the City to property owners within its
boundaries, except as provided by mutual agreement. Specifically, but without limitation,
it is agreed that the.City of Baytown shall not be required to furnish (1) sewer or water
service, (2) police protection, (3) fire protection (4) road or street repairs, and (S)
garbage pickup service.
4. The Company and the City of Baytown recognize that, during the next
succeeding seven years, the City of Baytown will experience population growth as a result
of industrial expansion which will necessitate increased revenue to provide expanded
services and facilities. In view of this increased need for revenue, beginning in 1997, the
Company agrees to pay the City of Baytown an Industrial District payment on or before
December 31 of each year during the term of this Agreement, such payment to be
calculated on the basis of the below stated formula:
apply:
A. In applying the below stated formula, the following definitions shall
(1) Full Value Payment: The fair market value, as determined
by the City, of all of the Company's Baytown Plant within the corporate
limits or extraterritorial jurisdiction of the City, multiplied by the property
tax rate per $100.00 of assessed valuation adopted by the City Council for
the City of Baytown for financing the fiscal year in which such December
due date falls, and multiplied by the applicable industrial payment rate as
detailed below.

(2) Tax Payment: The amount paid by the Company to the City
of Baytown as ad valorem taxes on that portion of the Company's Baytown
Plant within the City limits. -The tax payment shall be based on the value
determined by the Harris County Appraisal District or such other appraisal
district as may succeed the Harris County Appraisal District in assessing
property for the City.
(3) Industrial District Payment. Amount paid by the Company in
lieu of taxes pursuant to this Agreement, which amount shall not include
the tax payment paid by the Company.
B. The Company's Industrial District Payment shall be calculated each
year in the following manner using the above definitions:
Full Value Payment
- Tax Payment
Industrial District Payment
0 5
® C. The appraised value for tax purposes of the annexed portion of
land, improvements, and tangible personal property shall be determined by the
Harris County Appraisal District. The parties hereto recognize that said District
is not required to appraise the land, improvements, and tangible personal property
in the unannexed area for the purpose of computing the Industrial District
Payments hereunder. Therefore, the parties agree that to determine the fair
market value of all of the Company's Baytown Plant in accordance with the
market value computation contemplated in the Texas Property Tax Code for the
purpose of calculating the Industrial District Payment in the manner described
above, the City may choose to use an appraisal of the Harris County Appraisal
District, or an appraisal conducted by the City of Baytown, and /or an independent
appraiser of the City's selection, and at the City's expense. This value shall be
used in determining the Full Value Payment described above. Nothing contained
herein shall ever be construed as in derogation of the authority of the Harris
County Appraisal District to establish the appraised value of land, improvements,
and tangible personal property in the annexed portion for ad valorem tax
purposes.
D. It is agreed by the parties that the City has the power to and shall
create an Industrial District Review Board which shall carry out the duties
designated to it in this Agreement.
E. If any disagreement arises between the Company and Harris County
Appraisal District that results in a delay in the determination of the Company's
0 6
® fair market value, the Company shall pay to the City of Baytown on the due date
the same amount which was paid to the City for the last preceding period as to
which there -was no controversy concerning the fair market value of the Company.
Adjustments to this amount shall be made within thirty (30) days of the resolution
of the disagreement.
5. Furthermore, the City hereby agrees that for all new construction of the
Company, which is located within Industrial District No. 3 with value greater than $20
million, the Industrial District Payment shall be calculated, subject to the limitations
provided herein, as the fair market value, as determined by the City of each new
construction project multiplied by the property tax rate per $100.00 of assessed valuation
adopted by the City Council of the City of Baytown for financing the fiscal year in which
such December due date falls, and multiplied by the applicable new construction
industrial district payment rate as detailed below. Such computation shall yield a
product which, for purposes of this Agreement, shall be referred to as the "New
Construction Industrial District Payment ".
0 7
® Such New Construction Industrial District Payment rate shall apply only to
qualified, new construction and then only to the extent that the value of the Company's
Baytown Plant, in Industrial District No. 3, exclusive of such qualified new construction
equals or exceeds the 1997 appraised value of the Company's Baytown Plant within the
corporate limits and /or extraterritorial jurisdiction of the City. If, however, in any year,
the market value of the Company's property is less than such amount, then the value of
the new construction shall be added to the market value, and if such sum exceeds the
1997 appraised value of the Company's Baytown Plant within the corporate limits and /or
extraterritorial jurisdiction of the City, the value in excess of such amount shall be a
factor in computing the new construction industrial district payment.
This New Construction Industrial District Payment shall first become effective as
of January 1, immediately following the date of the start of construction if such
construction qualifies as "new construction ", as hereinafter defined, upon the earlier of
the final completion of the new construction or the expiration of two (2) years from the
date of the notice of the start of construction. The City may allow, in its sole discretion,
an extension of time to the Company in the event of unavoidable circumstances or a
force majeure that causes a delay to the Company in completing construction, but
nothing contained herein shall obligate the City to grant such an extension. For
purposes of determining whether new construction is qualified for the New Construction
Industrial District Payment calculation, the City shall verify that the fair market value of
the new construction after the expiration of two (2) years from the effective date of the
New Construction Industrial District Payment computation, equals or exceeds $20
0 8
® million. Thus, if after the two -year period, the fair market value of the new construction
is less than $20 million, the difference between the amount that would have been paid
pursuant to the Industrial District Payment calculation and the amount actuaIly paid
pursuant to the New Construction Industrial District Payment shall be recaptured by the
City and shall be paid within sixty (60) days after written notice of the non - qualification
of the new construction for the New Construction Industrial District Payment
computation by the City or its designee to the Company. In no case shall the period to
which the New Construction Industrial District Payment computation applies, inclusive of
construction and completion, extend beyond the term of this Agreement.
The term "New Construction" as used in this paragraph shall mean permanent
buildings and structures, fixed machinery, fixed equipment and process units, site
improvements and that office space and related fixed improvements necessary to the
operation and administration of the Company, all of which commence subsequent to the
effective date of this Agreement and whose value will exceed $20 million. "New
Construction' shall not include land, inventories, supplies, tools, furnishings and other
forms of movable personal property, vehicles, vessels, aircraft, housing, hotel
accommodations, deferred maintenance investments, property to be rented or leased, any
improvements, including, but not limited to, those which produce, store, or distribute
natural gas, fluids, or gases which are not integral to the operation of the facility,
property that has an expected useful life of less than fifteen (15) years, or any property
owned or used by the State of Texas or its political subdivisions or any organization
owned, operated or directed by a political subdivision of the State of Texas.
® Throughout the term of this Agreement, all New Construction shall be valued
separately and included in the aforementioned Industrial District Payment only to the
extent that the value of the New Construction is not subject to the New Construction
Industrial District Payment computation.
In the event that the Company allows all or any part of this New Construction
Industrial District Payment to become delinquent, this portion of the Agreement, dealing
specifically with New Construction, shall be null and void; and all payments previously
reduced by virtue of this section (i.e., the difference between the Industrial District
Payment and the New Construction Industrial District Payment) shall be recaptured and
paid within sixty (60) days of the delinquency date.
The Owner shall send written notice to the City of the date of the start of
construction on or before thirty (30) days after project approval by the Company;
provided, that if any project approval by the Company occurred prior to the effective
date of this Agreement in the year in which this Agreement is executed, such notice shall
be due on or before thirty (30) days after the execution of this Agreement. Such notice
shall include a description of the project along with a verified statement of an officer of
the Company, who has the authority to bind the Company, that the project qualifies as
new construction as defined herein and should be subject to the New Construction
Industrial District Payment. The Company agrees that the failure to provide the City
with this notice prior to the start of construction shall constitute a waiver of any right or
privilege to calculate the amount due to the City based on the New Construction
10
® Industrial District Payment rate and that such New Construction shall be factored into
the full Industrial District Payment as described in Section 4 of this Agreement.
6. Determination of City and Industrial District fair market values, in the
above stated manner, shall be made by the City of Baytown and approved by the
Industrial District Review Board. Such final fair market value as approved by the
Industrial District Review Board shall be final and binding unless either party within
thirty (30) days after receipt of the Board's determination petitions for a Declaratory
Judgment to the Civil District Court of Harris County, Texas, as provided for by Section
7 hereof.
In determining the fair market value of property and improvements as used
herein, the Industrial District Review Board shall base its determination on the fair
market value as defined in Section 4(c) herein, giving due consideration to comparable
present day facilities considering and giving effect to sound engineering valuation
practices relative to service life, life expectancy, process and functional obsolescence.
7. If any disagreement arises between parties concerning the interpretation of
this Agreement, it is agreed that either of the said parties may petition any Civil District
Court of Harris County, Texas, for a Declaratory Judgment determining said controversy,
and the cause shall be tried as other civil causes in which the plaintiff must establish by a
preponderance of the evidence the correct interpretation of valuation. Pending final
determination of said controversy, the Company shall pay to the City of Baytown on the
due date the same amount which was paid to the City for the last preceding period as to
which there was no controversy concerning the amount owed by the Company to the
0 11
® City. The Company agrees to tender the amount of potential liability to the registry of
the Civil District Court, Harris County, Texas, pending final determination of the
controversy beyond -any further appeal.
8. All payments to the City of Baytown provided herein shall be made 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 any payment 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 the Company's property upon any delinquency
in Industrial District Payment.
9. If any other municipality attempts to annex any land or property owned,
used, occupied, leased, rented or possessed by the Company within the area designated
as Baytown Industrial District No. 3 or if the creation of any new municipality should be
attempted so as to include within its limits such land or property, the City of Baytown
shall, with the cooperation of the Company, seek injunctive 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 of such legal steps, including attorney' fees
(other than the City Attorney) retained by mutual agreement of the parties, shall be paid
by the Company. Should the City refuse or fail to comply with its obligations under this
paragraph, the Company shall have the right to seek such legal or equitable relief as it
0 12
® deems necessary or advisable in its own name or in the name of the City and, if
necessary, the Company may join the City as a party to such legal action.
If the City and the Company are unsuccessful in preventing any such attempted
annexation or incorporation, the Company shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement as to any property so annexed or incorporated retroactive to the effective
date of such annexation or incorporation, or the Company may continue this Agreement
in full force and effect; provided, however, that the Company's right to terminate this
Agreement must be exercised within thirty (30) days after Judgment upholding such
annexation or incorporation becomes final beyond further appeal. If any payment is
made by the Company to the City of Baytown after the effective date of such annexation
or incorporation, and if the Company elects to terminate this Agreement as above
provided, then as to such property so annexed or incorporated such payment shall be
refunded by the City to the Company.
10. The City of Baytown and the Company mutually recognize that the health
and welfare of Baytown residents require adherence to high standards of quality in the
air emissions, water effluents and noise, vibration and toxic levels of those industries
located in the Baytown Industrial District No. 3, and that development within the District
may have an impact on the drainage of surrounding areas. To this end, the Company
and the City agree that the same standards and criteria relative to noise, vibration and
toxic levels and drainage and flood control which are adopted by the City and made
applicable to portions of the City adjacent to the Company's Baytown Plant shall also be
applicable to the plant within the Industrial District. The Company further agrees to
0 13
abide by the rules and regulations and the permits issued to it by the Environmental
Protection Agency, the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission, and any other
governmental agency having legal authority in these matters. In this connection, it is
recognized between the parties that these agencies are charged with the responsibility for
enforcing air and water quality standards, and it is agreed that so long as the
Environmental Protection Agency, the Texas Natural Resource Conservation
Commission, the Texas Air Control Board, and other related agencies are charged with
such responsibility, nothing contained herein shall be construed to impose upon the City
of Baytown any responsibility, authority or right, by termination of this Agreement or
otherwise to enforce any standards relative to air and water quality as are established by
law, rule, regulation or permit. It is also agreed that no violation of any standards or
criteria adopted by the City shall be a reason for termination of this Agreement.
11. This Agreement shall be for a term of seven (7) years from the date this
instrument is executed and for such additional period or periods of time as provided by
the Texas Municipal Annexation Act and mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto.
12. The benefits accruing to the Company under this Agreement shall also
extend to the Company's "affiliates" and to any properties owned or acquired by said
affiliates within the area encompassed by Industrial District No. 3, and where reference
is made herein to land, property and improvements owned by the Company, that shall
also include land, property and improvements owned by its affiliates. The "affiliates" as
used herein shall mean all companies with respect to which the Company, directly or
I
indirectly, through one or more intermediaries at the time in question, owns or has the
0 14
power to exercise the control over fifty percent (50 01o) or more of the stock having the
right to vote for the election of directors.
13. It is agreed by the parties to this Agreement that only full, complete and
faithful performance of the terms hereof shall satisfy the rights and obligations assumed
by the parties and that, therefore, in addition to any action at law for damages which
either party may have, the Company may enjoin the enactment or enforcement of any
ordinance or charter amendment in violation of, or in conflict with, the terms of this
Agreement and may obtain such other equitable relief, including specific performance of
this Agreement, as is necessary to enforce its rights. It is further agreed that, should this
Agreement be breached by the Company, the City shall be entitled, in addition to any
action at law for damages, to obtain specific performance of this Agreement and such
other equitable relief necessary to enforce its rights. However, nothing contained herein
shall be construed to give the City any right to terminate this Agreement on the basis of
the Company's violation of any standard or criteria relative to air emissions, water
effluents, noise, vibration, or toxic levels, or drainage and flood control established by
any law, ordinance, rule, regulation or permit.
14. In the event the terms and conditions of this Agreement are rendered
ineffective, or their effect changed by the Constitution, any legislative changes, or any
interpretation of the Texas Property Tax Code by the State Tax Assessment Board, both
parties mutually agree that this Agreement shall be renegotiated to accomplish the intent
of this Agreement.
0 15
® 15. This Agreement shall not bestow any rights upon any third party, but
rather, shall bind and benefit the Company and the City only.
16. This Agreement contains all the agreements of the parties relating to the
subject matter hereof and is the, full and final expression of the agreement between the
parties.
17. The Company shall not sell, assign, or transfer any of its rights or
obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part without prior written consent of
the City, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
1$. Failure of either party hereto to insist on the strict performance of any of
the agreements herein or to exercise any rights or remedies accruing thereunder upon
default or failure of
performance shall not be considered a waiver of the right to insist on and to enforce by
an appropriate remedy, strict compliance with any other obligation hereunder to exercise
any right or remedy occurring as a result of any future default of failure of performance.
19. This Agreement shall in all respects be interpreted and construed in
accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Texas and the City, regardless
of the place of its execution or performance. The place of making and the place of
performance for all purposes shall be Baytown, Harris County, Texas.
20. The officers executing this Agreement on behalf of the parties hereby
represent that such officers have full authority to execute this Agreement and to bind the
party he represents.
