Company may file such Rendition on a Harris County Appraisal District rendition 2 e e form, or similar form. The properties which the Company must render and upon which the "in lieu of" taxes are assessed are more fully described in subsections 1 and 2 of subsection D, of this Paragraph II (sometimes collectively called the "Property"). A failure by Company to file a Rendition as provided for in this paragraph, shall constitute a waiver by Company for the current tax year, of all rights of protest and appeal under the terms of this Agreement. B. As part of its rendition, Company shall furnish to City a written report of the names and addresses of all persons and entities who store any tangible personal property on the land by bailment, lease, consignment, or other arrangement with Company ("products in storage"), and are in the possession or under the management of Company on January 1st of each Value Year, further giving a description of such products in storage. C. On or before the later of December 31, 1999, or 30 days from mailing of tax bill and in like manner on or before each December 31st thereafter, through and including December 31, 2009, Company shall pay to City an amount "in lieu of taxes" on Company's Property as of January 1st of the current calendar year ("Value Year") . D. Company agrees to render to City and pay an amount "in lieu of taxes" on Company's land, improvements and tangible personal property in the unannexed area equal to the sum of: 1. (a) One Hundred percent (100%) of the amount of ad valorem taxes which would be payable to City if all of the Company's land and improvements which existed on January 1, 1999, had been within the corporate limits of City and appraised each year by City's independent appraiser; and (b) Fifty percent (50%) of the amount of ad valorem taxes which would be payable to City if all of the Company's land and improvements which are added after January 1, 1999, had been within the corporate limits of City and appraised each year by City's independent appraiser; and 2. (a) One Hundred percent (100%) of the amount of ad valorem taxes which would be payable to City on all of the Company's tangible personal property of every description, including, without limitation, inventory, oil, gas, and mineral interests, items of leased equipment, railroads, pipelines, and products in storage located on the land, which existed on January 1, 1999, had been within the corporate limits of City and appraised each year by the City's independent appraiser; (b) Fifty percent (50%) of the amount of ad valorem taxes which would be payable to City on all of the Company's tangible personal property of every description, including, without limitation, 3 e e inventory, oil, gas, and mineral 'interests, items of leased equipment, railroads, pipelines, and products in storage located on the land, which are added after January 1, 1999, had been within the corporate limits of City and appraised each year by the City's independent appraiser. III. This Agreement shall extend for a period beginning on the 1st day of January, 1999, and continue thereafter until December 31, 2009, unless extended for an additional period or periods of time upon mutual consent of Company and City as provided by Section 42.044, Texas Local Government Code; provided, however, that in the event this Agreement is not so extended for an additional period or periods of time on or before June 30, 2009, the agreement of City not to annex property of Company within the District shall terminate. In that event, City shall have the right to commence immediate annexation proceedings as to all of Company's property covered by this Agreement, notwithstanding any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and in such event Company agrees that if the Texas Municipal Act, as amended after January 1, 1980, or any new legislation is thereafter enacted by the Legislature of the State of Texas which imposes greater restrictions on the right of City to annex land belonging to the Company or imposes further obligations on City in connection therewith after the annexation of such land, Company will waive the right to require City to comply with any such additional restrictions or obligations and the rights of the parties shall be then determined in accordance with the provisions of said Texas Municipal Annexation Act as the same existed on January 1, 1980. IV. This Agreement may be extended for an additional period or periods by agreement between City and Company and/ or its assigns even though it is not extended by agreement between City and all of the owners of all land within the District of which it is a part. In this connection, city hereby expresses its belief that industrial district agreements of the kind made herein are conducive to the development of existing and future industry and are to the best interest of all citizens of City and encourage future City Councils to enter into future industrial district agreements and to extend for additional periods permitted by law this Industrial District Agreement upon request of Company or its assigns; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to obligate either party hereto to agree to an extension of this Agreement. V. Company agrees to pay all "in lieu of taxes" payments hereunder, to City on or before December 31 of each year during the term hereof. It is agreed that presently the ratio of ad valorem tax assessment used by the City is one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of property. Any change in such ratio used by City shall be reflected in any subsequent computations hereunder. This Agreement shall be subject to all provisions of law relating to determination 4 e e of value of land; improvements, and tangible personal property, for tax purposes (e.g., rendition, assessments, Harris County Appraisal District review and appeal procedures, court appeals, etc.) for purposes of fixing and determining the amount of ad valorem tax payments, and the amount of "in lieu of tax" payments hereunder, except as otherwise provided in Article VI hereof. VI. A. In the event Company elects to protest the valuation for tax purposes set on its said properties by City or by the Harris County Appraisal District for any year or years during the terms hereof, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude such protest and Company shall have the right to take all legal steps desired by it to reduce the same. Notwithstanding any such protest by Company, Company agrees to pay to City on or before the date therefor hereinabove provided, the total amount of the "in lieu of taxes" on the unannexed portions of Company I s hereinabove described property which would be due by Company to City in accoraance with the foregoing provisions of this Agreement on the basis of renditions which shall be filed by Company on or before March 31 of each year during the term of this Agreement, with both the City and Harris County Appraisal District for that year. When the City or Harris County Appraisal District (as the case may be) valuation on said property of Company has been so finally determined, either as the result of final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or as the result of other final conclusion of the controversy, then within thirty (30) days thereafter Company shall make payment to City of any additional payment due hereunder based on such final valuation, together with applicable penalties, interests, and costs. B. Should Company disagree with any appraisal made by the independent appraiser selected by City (which shall be given in writing to Company), Company shall, within twenty (20) days of receiving such copy, give written notice to the City of such disagreement. In the event Company does not give such written notice of disagreement within such time period, the appraisal made by said independent appraiser shall be final and controlling for purposes of the determination of "in lieu of taxes" payments to be made under this Agreement. Should Company give such notice of disagreement, Company shall also submit to the city with such notice a written statement setting forth what Company believes to be the market value of Company's hereinabove described property. Both parties agree to thereupon enter into good faith negotiations in an attempt to reach an agreement as to the market value of Company's property for "in lieu" purposes hereunder. If, after the expiration of thirty (30) days from the date the notice of disagreement was received by city, the parties have not reached agreement as to such market value, the parties agree to submit the dispute to final arbitration as provided in subparagraph 1 of this Article VI(B). Notwithstanding any such disagreement by Company, Company agrees to pay to City on 5 . e or before December 31 of each year during the term hereof, at least the total of (a) the ad valorem taxes on the annexed portions, plus (b) the total amount of the "in lieu" payments which would be due hereunder on the basis of Company's valuations rendered and/or submitted to City by Company hereunder, or the total assessment and "in lieu of taxes" thereon for the last preceding year, whichever is higher. 1. A Board of Arbitrators shall be created composed of one person named by Company, one by City, and a third to be named by those two. In case of no agreement on this arbitrator in 10 days, the parties will join in a written request that the Chief Judge of the U.s. District Court for the Southern District of Texas appoint the third arbitrator who, (as the "Impartial Arbitrator") shall preside over the arbitration proceeding, in accordance with the rules and regulations of the American Arbitration Association. The sole issue to be determined in the arbitration shall be resolution of the difference between the parties as to the fair market value of Company's property for calculation of the "in lieu" payment and total payment hereunder for the year in question. The Board shall hear and consider all relevant and material evidence on that issue including expert opinion, and shall render its written decision as promptly as practicable. That decision shall then be final and binding upon the parties, subject to judicial review as may be available under the Texas General Arbitration Act (Articles 224-238, Vernon's Annotated Revised civil Statutes of Texas). Costs of the arbitration shall be shared equally by the Company and the city, provided that each party shall bear its own attorneys fees. VII. City shall be entitled to a tax lien on Company's above described property, all improvements thereon, and all tangible personal property thereon, in the event of default in payment of "in lieu of taxes" payments hereunder, which shall accrue penalty and interest in like manner as delinquent taxes, and which shall be collectible by City in the same manner as provided by law for delinquent taxes. VIII. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon ci ty and Company, and upon Company I s successors and assigns, affiliates and subsidiaries, and, with prior written consent of City, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, shall remain in force whether Company sells, assigns, or in any other manner disposes of, either voluntarily or by operation of law, all or any part of the property belonging to it within the territory hereinabove described, and the agreements herein contained shall be held to be covenants running with the land owned by Company situated within said territory, for so long as this Agreement or any extension thereof remains in force. 6 e e IX. In the event anyone or more words, phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs, sections, articles or other parts of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person, firm, corporation or circumstances shall be held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unconstitutional for any reason, then the application, invalidity or unconstitutionality of such words, phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph, section, article or other part of the Agreement shall be deemed to be independent of and separable from the remainder of this Agreement and the validity of the remaining parts of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. X. Upon the commencement of the term of this Agreement, all other previously existing industrial district agreements with respect to said land shall terminate. :A~ mw /Cj1'1 j ENTERED INTO effective the ~ day of DedemLel, ~.

This agreement shall be subject to the additional restrictions contained in Exhibit "B" attached hereto. o - , -2- upon which tract(s) Company has either constructed an industrial plant(s) or contemplates the construction of an industrial plant(s); and WHEREAS, pursuant to its pOlicy, City has enacted Ordinances No. 1789 and No. 98- , designating a portion of the area located in its extraterritorial jurisdiction as the "South La Porte Industrial District," hereinafter called ~District," such Ordinance being in compliance with Section 42.044 of the Texas Local Government Code; and WHEREAS, City desires to encourage the expansion and growth of industrial plants within said District and for such purpose desires to enter into this Agreement with Company pursuant to Ordinance adopted by the City Council of said City and recorded in the official minutes of said City: NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements of the parties contained herein and pursuant to the authority granted under the Municipal Annexation Act and the Ordinances of City referred to above, city and Company hereby agree with each other as follows: I. A. city covenants, agrees and guarantees that during the term of this Agreement, provided below, and subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, said District shall continue and retain its extraterritorial status as an industrial district, at least to the extent that the same covers the land described above and belonging to Company and its assigns, and unless and until the status of said land, or a portion or portions thereof, as an industrial district may be changed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing and to the later provisions of this Agreement, city does further covenant, agree and guarantee that such industrial district, to the extent that it covers said land e . -3- lying within said District and not now within the corporate limits of City, or to be disannexed from the corporate limits of city, shall be immune from annexation by City during the term hereof (except as hereinafter provided) and shall have no right to have extended to it any services by City, and that said land shall not have extended to it by ordinance any rules and regulations (a) governing plats and subdivisions of land, (b) prescribing any building, electrical, plumbing or inspection code or codes, or (c) attempting to exercise in any manner whatever control over the conduct of business thereon; provided, however, it is agreed that City shall have the right to institute or intervene in any proceeding authorized by the Texas Water Code, the Texas Clean Air Act, or the Texas Health & Safety Code to the same extent and to the same intent and effect as if all land covered by this Agreement were located within the corporate limits of City and not subject to the Agreement. B. Company agree~ that it will not, during the term of this Agreement, use or seek legislative or regulatory approval to use, nor allow any other person to use or seek legislative or regulatory approval to use, any portion of the tract(s) of land described above as any part of a commercial hazardous waste management facility, as defined in Chapter 296, Acts of the 72nd Texas Legislature (1991). Company further agrees that it will, within thirty days after execution of this Agreement, place a deed restriction on the tract(s) of land described above prohibiting the use of any portion of such tract(s) as any part of a commercial hazardous waste management facility. Company hereby agrees that in any suit by City for breach of any provision of this paragraph, City may seek and, should it prevail it shall be entitled to, specific performance of this provision of this paragraph. e e -4- II. Company agrees to render to City and pay full City ad valorem taxes in the form of "in lieu of taxes" payments, on its land and improvements, and tangible personal property, as fully as if said land, improvements, and tangible personal property were annexed to city. III. This Agreement shall extend for a period beginning on the 1st day of January, 1999, and continue thereafter until December 31, 2000, unless extended for an additional period or periods of time upon mutual consent of Company and city as provided by section 42.044, Texas Local Government Code; provided, however, that in the event this Agreement is not so extended for an additional period or periods of time on or before June 30, 2000, the agreement of City not to annex property of Company within the District shall terminate, In that event, City shall have the right to commence immediate annexation proceedings as to all of Company's property covered by this Agreement, notwithstanding any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and in such event Company agrees that if the Texas Municipal Act, as amended after January 1, 1980, or any new legislation is thereafter enacted by the Legislature of the state of Texas which imposes greater restri~tions on the right of City to annex land belonging to the Company or imposes further obligations on City in connection therewith after the annexation of such land, Company will waive the right to require City to comply with any such additional restrictions or obligations and the rights of the. parties shall be then determined in accordance with the provisions of said Texas Municipal Annexation Act as the same existed January 1, 1980. IV. This Agreement may be extended for an additional period or periods by agreement between City and Company and/or its assigns e e -s- even though it is not extended by agreement between City and all of the owners of all land within the District of which it is a part. In this connection, City hereby expresses its belief that industrial district agreements of the kind made herein are conducive to the development of existing and future industry and are to the best interest of all citizens of City and encourage future City Councils to enter into future industrial district agreements and to extend for additional periods permitted by law this Industrial District Agreement upon request of Company or its assigns; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to obligate either party hereto to agree to an extension of this Agreement. V. Company agrees to pay all "in lieu of taxes" payments hereunder, to City on or before December 31 of each year during the term hereof. It is agreed that presently the ratio of ad valorem tax assessment used by City is one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of property. Any change in such ratio used by City shall be reflected in any subsequent computations hereunder. This Agreement shall be subject to all provisions of law relating to determination of value of land, improvements, and tangible personal property, for tax purposes (e.g., rendition, assessments, Harris County Appraisal District review and appeal procedures, court appeals, etc.) for purposes of fixing and determining the amount of ad valorem tax payments, and the amount of "in lieu of tax" payments hereunder, except as otherwise provided in Article VI hereof. VI. (A) In the event Company elects to protest the valuation for tax purposes set on its said properties by City or by the Harris County Appraisal District for any y~ar or years during the terms hereof, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude such protest and Company shall have the right to take all l.egal steps desired by it e e -6- to reduce the same. Notwithstanding such protest by Company, Company agrees to pay to City on or before the date therefor hereinabove provided, the total amount of the "in lieu of taxes" on the unannexed portions of Company's hereinabove described property which would be due by Company to city in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Agreement on the basis of renditions which shall be filed by Company on or before March 31 of each year during the term of this Agreement, with both the City and the Harris County Appraisal District for that year. When the City or Harris County Appraisal District (as the case may be) valuation on said property of Company has been so finally determined, either as the result of final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or as the result of other final conclusion of the controversy, then within thirty (30) days thereafter Company shall make payment to city of any additional payment due hereunder based on such final valuation, together with applicable penalties, interests, and costs. (B) Should Company disagree with any appraisal made by the independent appraiser selected by City (which shall be given in writing to Company), Company shall, within twenty (20) days of receiving such copy, give written notice to the city of such disagreement. In the event Company does not give such written notice of disagreement within such time period, the appraisal made by said independent appraiser shall be final and controlling for purposes of the determination of "in lieu of taxes" payments to be made under this Agreement. Should Company give such notice of disagreement, Company shall also submit to the City with such notice a written statement setting forth what Company believes to be the market value of Company's hereinabove described property. Both parties agree to thereupon e e -7- enter into good faith negotiations in an attempt to reach an agreement as to the market value of Company's property for "in lieu" purposes hereunder. If, after the expiration of thirty (30) days from the date the notice of disagreement was received by City, the parties have not reached agreement as to such market value, the parties agree to submit the dispute to final arbitration as provided in subparagraph (1) of this Article VI(B). Notwithstanding any such disagreement by Company, Company agrees to pay to City on or before December 31 of each year during the term hereof, at least the total of (a) the ad valorem taxes on the annexed portions, plus (b) the total amount of the "in lieu" payments which would be due hereunder on the basis of Company's valuations rendered and/or submitted to City by Company hereunder, or the total assessment and "in lieu of taxes" thereon for the last preceding year, whichever is higher. (1) A Board of Arbitrators shall be created composed of one person named by Company, one by City, and a third to be named by those two. In case of no agreement on this arbitrator in 10 days, the parties will join in a written request that the Chief Judge of the u.s. District Court for the Southern District of Texas appoint the third arbitrator who (as the "Impartial Arbitrator") shall preside over the arbitration proceeding, in accordance with the rules and regulations of the American Arbitration Association. The sole issue to be determined in the arbitration shall be resolution of the difference between the parties as to the fair market value of company's property for calculation of the "in lieu" payment and total payment hereunder for the year in question. The Board shall hear and consider all relevant and material evidence on that issue including expert opinion, and shall render its written decision as promptly as practicable. That decision shall then be final and binding upon the parties, subject to judicial review as may e e -8- be available under the Texas General Arbitration Act (Articles 224-238, Vernon's Annotated Revised civil statutes of Texas). Costs of the arbitration shall be shared equally by the Company and the City, provided that each party shall bear its own attorneys fees. VII. City shall be entitled to a tax lien on Company's above described property, all improvements thereon, and all tangible personal property thereon, in the event of default in payment of "in lieu of taxes" payments hereunder, which shall accrue penalty and interest in like manner as delinquent taxes, and which shall be collectible by City in the same manner as provided by law for delinquent taxes. VIII. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon City and Company, and upon Company's successors and assigns, affiliates and subsidiaries, and, with the prior written consent of City, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, shall remain in force in the event Company sells, assigns, or in any other manner disposes of, either voluntarily or by operation of law, all or any part of the property belonging to it within the territory hereinabove described, and the agreements herein contained shall be held to be covenants running with the land owned by Company situated within said territory, for so long as this Agreement or any extension thereof remains in force. IX. In the event anyone or more words, phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs, sections, articles or other parts of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person, firm, corporation or circumstances shall be held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unconstitutional for any reason, then the application, invalidity or unconstitutionality of such words, e e -9- phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph, section, article or other part of the Agreement shall be deemed to be independent of and separable from the remainder of this Agreement and the validity of the remaining parts of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. x. Upon the commencement of the term of this Agreement, all other previously existing industrial district agreements with respect to said land shall terminate.
