The original Zone, also known as "Shadow Creek Ranch", consists of 3,467 acres located in Brazoria County and Fort Bend County, Texas. In addition, the Zone is located in Alvin I.S.D. (AISD), Fort Bend I.S.D. (FBISD) and a small portion in Pearland I.S.D. (PISD). The original Zone is generally bounded by Clear Creek on the north, State Highway 288 on the east, County Road 92 (the extension of FM 518 west of S.H. 288) on the south and FM 521 on the west. A map illustrating the original boundaries of the Zone follows on page 15 as Exhibit 1. st 1 Plan Amendment On July 10, 2006, by Ordinance 1276 of the City, the Plan was amended and the Zone was expanded to provide for the annexation of 457 acres of vacant land, adjacent to the Zone. It should be noted that 288 acres are in Brazoria County and 169 acres are in Fort Bend County. nd 2 Plan Amendment On November 13, 2006 by Ordinance 1312 of the City, the Plan was amended to provide for development of public improvements to serve Shadow Creek Ranch Town Center. The proposed development is within the boundaries of the original Zone and Brazoria County. rd 3 Plan Amendment On November 13, 2006 by Ordinance 1313 of the City, the Plan was amended and the Zone was expanded to provide for the annexation of 8+ acres to facilitate the improvement and widening of Broadway/FM 518 from S.H. 288 to F.M. 521. It should be noted that the boundaries of the annexed area are within Brazoria County. The Zone is now composed of 3,932+ acres, of which 3,125+ acres are within Brazoria County and 807+ acres are within Fort Bend County. A map illustrating the boundaries of the Zone as amended follows on page 14 as Exhibit 2. 5 PURPOSE OF ZONE The objective of the Zone is to facilitate quality mixed-use development with a self-sustaining tax base for the City of Pearland (the City), and the other participating taxing entities. The City Council, in adopting the ordinances creating and expanding the Zone, found that the development described in the Project Plan and Reinvestment Zone Financing Plan (the Project Plan), and its subsequent amendments, would not likely occur, to the quality, standards and densities described in the Project Plan, but for the creation of the Zone. The City Council further found that improvements in the Zone will significantly enhance the value of all taxable real property in the Zone and will be of general benefit to the City. The Zone will pursue its objective by acting as a financing vehicle for regional public improvements, as described in the Project Plan as amended. The methods of financing and the sources of funding available to the Zone, including the participation levels of the various participating entities, including the City, Brazoria County, Fort Bend County and Alvin ISD, are described in the amended Project Plan. 6 STATE OF THE ZONE AND PLAN IMPLEMENTATION IN 2009 1. The information provided in this section is in accordance with § 311.016 (a) (1) of the Texas Tax Code, which requires inclusion of the amount and source of revenue in the tax increment fund established for the zone. In addition to the City's tax increment revenue, interlocal agreements with Brazoria County, Fort Bend County and Alvin ISD provide for each taxing unit's participation in the Zone. The Project Plan also allows for the participation of Brazoria Drainage District No. 4 and Fort Bend Independent School District, though neither is currently participating. Levels of participation are detailed in the Project Plan and current levels of participation are shown in Table A.

The Board of Directors of the Zone has been granted by City Council, in accordance with Section 311.010 of Texas Tax Code, the power to administer, manage, and operate the Zone and to implement the Project Plan. The Zone was created for the duration of 30 years, or until dissolved by the City. The total cost of the public improvements within the Zone, as outlined in the original Project Plan, amounts to $294,482,034. Of this amount, the City will fund $35,471,061 worth of improvements, and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) will fund another $10,277,050 worth of improvements. The Zone will fund the remaining improvements, which amounts to a cost of $248,733,823. 1st Plan Amendment The original list of project costs was amended with the approval of the 1st Plan Amendment, which included improvements, estimated to total $34,724,218. These improvements address the water, wastewater, storm sewer, lakes channels, roads and landscaping costs for the 457+ acre annexation. 2nd Plan Amendment The list of project costs was amended again with the approval of the 2nd Plan Amendment. These improvements address major road infrastructure, detention, drainage, landscaping and the relocation of pipelines and overhead utilities. 2nd Plan Amendment infrastructure costs are estimated to total $11,749,818. 3rd Plan Amendment The list of project costs was amended a third time with the approval of the 3rd Plan Amendment.

Per the governing agreements, reimbursement is limited to the amount of the LFA 12 4. The information provided in this section is in accordance with §311.016 (a) (4) of the Texas Tax Code, which requires inclusion of the tax increment base and current captured appraised value retained by the zone. In each year subsequent to the base year, the Zone will receive tax increment revenue based on ad valorem property taxes levied and collected by each participating taxing unit on the captured appraised value of the Zone. The captured appraised value of the Zone is the total appraised value of all real property located within the Zone as of January 1, less the total appraised base year (January 1, 1998) value. As of December 31, 2009, development schedules for the original Zone remained unchanged from projections in the Project Plan. However, because the pace of development is unpredictable, and because the Project Plan provides a best estimate of captured appraised values, the actual captured appraised value in any future year may not equal the projected estimates of such value. As of January 1, 1998, the base year for the Zone, the area encompassed by the Zone was undeveloped land, with a total appraised value of $7,172,980. On January 1, 2009, the area encompassed by the Zone had a total appraised value of $1,388,161,252. As a result, the total captured appraised value (net base year value and exemptions) on the tax roll as of January 1, 2009 was $1,380,988,272 for the City, as illustrated in Table B. The City of Pearland base year (2006) value for the 457+ acres annexed in the 1st Plan Amendment was $4,381,680. As of January 1, 2009 the total appraised value was $9,825,400. As a result the total captured appraised value on the roll as of January I, 2009 was $5,443,720. All lands associated with the 2nd Plan Amendment are within the boundaries of the original Zone. All lands associated with the 3rd Plan Amendment are either owned by a municipality or are dedicated right-of-way with no taxable value. 5. The information provided in this section is in accordance with §311.016 (a) (5) of the Texas Tax Code, which requires inclusion of the captured appraised value shared by the municipality and other taxing units, the total amount of tax increments received, and any additional information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the tax increment financing plan adopted by the governing body of the municipality. Amended Captured Appraised Value Projections and Gross Incremental Revenue Projections for the annexations were prepared for the Project Plan amendments and the revised projections appear as Exhibits 11A & 11B.
