spa steam energy ip_ida 2012-2013
Page 0

Attachment "C" prior to October 1, 2013 will not be made
for revenue purposes only.
Section 6. Annexation due to Legislative Action.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4, the parties
agree and consent that the City may annex if a bill is
adopted by the State legislature which limits or restricts
the authority of the City to annex all or part of said land
and improvements. In the event of annexation, the Company
will not be required to make further payments under this
Agreement for any calendar year commencing after annexation

AMNIA:Re
spa steam energy ip ida 2012-2013

lieu of tax" payments as described in Section 1 as an
economic incentive program as allowed under Chapter 380
Local Government Code. This partial remission of taxes
(Economic Incentive Program) will only be applicable until
December 31, 2013. If the annexation laws are changed so
that the City can no longer annex the property of the
Company and if the parties cannot reach an agreement on a
new payment schedule or on a new "in lieu tax" agreement,
the Company agrees that it will continue to pay to the City
the "in lieu of tax" payments delineated in Section 1 until
December 31, 2013. "Taxable value" is the value as
determined by the Jefferson County Appraisal District in
its appraisal rolls after the completion of all litigation
and appeals (if any), of all improvements, excluding the
value of exempt pollution control devices, owned by the
Company and located within the extra-territorial
jurisdiction of the City as described in Attachment "C".

is located in a free trade zone or in any other type of
federal, state or local zone.
Section 7. The parties agree that the City has the
sole discretion after October 1, 2013 to annex the property
in Attachment "C" or to enter into negotiations on the

Page 10
payment by the company of additional "in lieu of tax
payments".
Section S. The present owners and lessees of the
property in Attachment "C" are described in Attachment "F".
Nothing contained herein shall be construed to prohibit or
prevent the Company from paying the other owners' or
lessees' "in lieu of tax" payment to prevent annexation by
the City. If the City annexes a tract or tracts, the total
"in lieu of tax" payment will be reduced by the same
percentage as the appraised value of the tracts under the
contract are reduced.
Section 9. The City will not commence annexation
proceedings prior to October 1, 2013 for the Company's
property as delineated in Attachment "C" to this Agreement
under Chapter 43 of the Local Government Code or file
litigation in District Court to abate or prevent a nuisance
or seek a civil penalty under Sections 54.016, 54.017, and
217.042 Local Government Code for "health, safety and
welfare concerns" until written notice of the concerns have
been delivered to the Company, and they have had a
reasonable opportunity to respond and to address the City
Council in open session.

Section 10. If, after having a reasonable
opportunity to respond and address the City Council in open
session in accordance with Section 8, there is still a
dispute as to whether there is a health, safety and welfare
concern for an event that occurred prior to October 1,
2013, the matter may, at the request of either party, be
submitted to either an appropriate court of jurisdiction or
arbitration before an arbitrator selected from a panel
supplied by the American Arbitration Association. Any
arbitration shall take place in Jefferson County or at such
other locations to which the parties agree. The request
for arbitration must be demanded in writing no later than
ten (10) days following the City Council meeting at which

in accordance with Section 8, or the rights to arbitration
shall be waived unless the parties agree otherwise. The
costs of the arbitration shall be shared equally between
the parties. The arbitration process shall be completed
within forty-five (45) days from the date the arbitrator is
selected, and if it is not so completed, any party may
proceed with annexation or litigation, as they so desire.

residence to the United States or authorized under law to
be employed in that manner in the United States. The
Company acknowledges that it has reviewed Chapter 2264,
Texas Government Code, and hereby affirmatively agrees to
repay the amount of any incentive with interest at the rate
of ten percent (10%) per annum, not later than the 120 day
after the date the City notifies the Company of a violation
in writing. The Company acknowledges the City may bring a
civil action as to recover any amounts owed under this
Chapter, and further acknowledges that the City may recover
