COKER CITY ATTORNEY 3 TOM REID MAYOR PETITION FOR CONSENT TO THE CREATION OF MUNICIPAL UTILITY DISTRICTS TO THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PEARLAND, TEXAS: The undersigned (herein the "Petitioner"), acting pursuant to the provisions of Chapters 49 and 54, Texas Water Code, respectfully petitions the City Council of the City of Pearland, Texas, for its written consent to the creation of up to six municipal utility districts and would show the following: I. The names of the proposed Districts shall be BRAZORIA COUNTY, FORT BEND COUNTY, OR BRAZORIA-FORT BEND COUNTY MUNICIPAL UTILITY DISTRICT NO. (as the case may be) and will be numbered in sequence starting with the next available number as assigned by the Brazoria or Fort Bend County Clerk (the "Districts"). Il. The Districts shall be created and organized under the terms and provisions of Article XVI, Section 59 of the Constitution of Texas and Chapters 49 and 54, Texas Water Code. The Districts shall be comprised of future designated areas within the 3177.711 acres of land, more or less, situated in Brazoria and Fort Bend Counties, Texas (the "Land"). All of the Land also is within the corporate boundaries of the City of Pearland, Texas (the "City"). All of the Land proposed to be included may properly be included in the Districts. The Land is more particularly described by metes and bounds in Exhibit "A", which is attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes. IV. Petitioner, Pearland Investments, L.P., a Nevada limited partnership, owns a majority in value of the Land which is proposed to be included in the Districts, as indicated by the tax rolls of Brazoria and Fort Bend Counties, Texas. V. Pearland Investments represents that there are no residents living anywhere on the Land. VI. The general nature of the work to be done by the Districts at the present time is the design, construction, acquisition, maintenance and operation of a waterworks and sanitary sewer system for residential and commercial purposes, and the construction, acquisition, improvement, extension, maintenance and operation of works, improvements, facilities, plants, equipment and appliances helpful or necessary to provide more adequate drainage for the Districts, and to control, abate and amend local storm waters or other harmful excesses of waters, and such other construction, acquisition, .ODMA\MHODMA\Houston;388617; I improvement, maintenance and operation of such additional facilities, systems, plants and enterprises as shall be consonant with all of the purposes for which the Districts are created.

The area proposed to be within the Districts is urban in nature, is within the growing environs of the City of Pearland, Texas, and is in close proximity to populous and developed sections of Brazoria and Fort Bend Counties, Texas. There is not now available within the area, which will be developed for single family residential and commercial uses, an adequate waterworks system, sanitary sewer system, or drainage and storm sewer system. The health and welfare of the present and future inhabitants of the area and of the territories adjacent thereto require the purchase, design, construction, acquisition, ownership, operation, repair, improvement and extension of an adequate waterworks system, sanitary sewer system, and drainage and storm sewer system. A public necessity, therefore, exists for the creation of the Districts, to provide for the purchase, design, construction, acquisition, ownership, operation, repair, improvement and extension of such waterworks system, sanitary sewer system, and drainage and storm sewer system, to promote the purity and sanitary condition of the State's waters and the public health and welfare of the community. VIII. Pearland Investments, L.P., also owns more than fifty percent (50%) of the appraised value of taxable real property liable for assessment of the CITY OF PEARLAND PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO. ONE (SHADOW CREEK RANCH) (the "Public Improvement District"), as determined by the current rolls of the Brazoria and Fort Bend Counties, Texas, and are the record owners of real property liable for assessment by the Public Improvement District who own taxable real property that constitutes more than fifty percent (50%) of the area of all taxable real property that is liable for assessment by the Public Improvement District. As such owner meeting the requirements of Chapter 372.005(b) of the Local Government Code, Petitioner further petitions and requests the City Council of Pearland, Texas to hold a public hearing, in the same manner as a hearing held under Section 372.009 of the Local Government Code, to dissolve the Public Improvement District. IX. Petitioner, by submission of this Petition, requests the City's consent to the creation of up to six Districts comprised of the Land under the same conditions set forth in Exhibit "B", which is attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes. WHEREFORE, Petitioner prays that this petition be heard and that the City Council of the City of Pearland, Texas, duly pass and approve an ordinance or resolution granting the consent to the creation of the Districts and authorizing the inclusion of the land described herein within the Districts.

Authority of District to Issue Bonds. The District shall have authority to issue, sell, and deliver Bonds from time to time, as deemed necessary and appropriate by the Board of Directors of the District, for the purposes, in such forms and manner, and as permitted or provided by federal law, the general laws of the State of Texas, and the Consent Ordinance. The District shall not be authorized to sell Bonds until it has provided the City with an executed copy of the TNRCC order approving each bond issue in which the TNRCC concludes that a District debt service tax rate of $1.50 or less per $100 of assessed valuation is feasible in accordance with the TNRCC's rules in effect at the time of such determination. The District's obligation to provide a copy of the TNRCC order including such conclusion shall not be construed as a limitation on the District's authority to levy an unlimited tax rate, it being understood and acknowledged that the District's bonds shall be payable from and secured by a pledge of the proceeds of an ad valorem tax, without legal limitation as to rate or amount. The District shall provide the City with copies of the Official Statement and the District's resolution authorizing the issuance of the Bonds for each issue prior to the delivery of the Bonds to the initial purchaser. 3.02. Distribution of Bond Proceeds. The proceeds of Bonds issued by the District shall be used and may be invested or reinvested, from time to time, as provided in the order or orders of the District authorizing the issuance, sale, and delivery of such Bonds and in accordance with the federal, state, and local laws and regulations governing the proceeds of the District's sale of its Bonds. 3.03. Bonds as Obligation of District. Unless and until the City shall dissolve the District and assume the District Assets and District Obligations, the Bonds of the District, as to both principal and interest, shall be and remain obligations solely of the District and shall never be deemed or construed to be obligations or indebtedness of the City; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit or restrict the District's ability to pledge or assign all or any portion of the Annual Payments or Monthly Revenue Payments, to be made by the City to the District as provided in this Agreement, to the payment of the principal of, the redemption premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds or other contractual obligations of the District relating to the financing, acquisition, or use of the Facilities. 3.04. Financing by Third Parties. From time to time, the District may enter into one or more agreements (the "Financing and Reimbursement Agreement") with the Developer or other landowners of property located within the District whereby the Developer or such landowners will construct the Facilities on behalf of the District or advance funds to or on behalf of the District for the acquisition and construction of the Facilities. The construction of any Facilities financed under the terms of a Financing and Reimbursement Agreement shall be subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Financing and Reimbursement Agreement will provide for the District's reimbursement of the person or entity advancing funds for the Facilities (i) from the proceeds of the District's sale of its Bonds, subject to all the terms and conditions of such Financing and Reimbursement Agreement, including, among other conditions, the approval of the TNRCC of the sale of the Bonds and the use of sale proceeds for such purpose; (ii) from District funds lawfully available for such purpose. ::ODMANHODMA\Houston;582280;1 page 5 ARTICLE IV OWNERSHIP, OPERATION, AND MAINTENANCE OF FACILITIES 4.01. Conveyance of Facilities. As the Facilities are constructed and accepted in accordance with Article II and the Facilities are conveyed to the City, a security interest shall be reserved for the purpose of securing the performance of the City under this Agreement. At such time as the Bonds issued to acquire and construct the Facilities have been discharged, the District shall execute a release of such security interest, and the City shall own the Facilities free and clear of such security interest. When the Facilities are conveyed to the City under this Article IV, the construction contractor's two (2) year warranty of its work shall be assigned to the City, as required under Section 2.02 above. 4.02. City Acceptance. As the Facilities are constructed and completed, representatives of the City shall inspect the same and, if the City finds that the Facilities have been completed in substantial compliance with the approved plans and specifications, the City will accept the conveyance of the Facilities, and the Facilities so conveyed shall be operated. maintained, and repaired by the City at its sole expense as provided in this Agreement. The City shall accept ownership of the Facilities under this Section 4.02 in accordance with the City's procedure for acceptance of such facilities in areas outside the District and within the City. If the Facilities have not been completed in substantial compliance with the approved plans and specifications, the City will immediately advise in what manner the Facilities do not comply so that the problems may immediately be corrected; whereupon the City shall again inspect the Facilities and accept the same if the non -complying items have been corrected. In conjunction with the City's acceptance of the Facilities, the City shall be provided with one (1) set of the construction drawings for such Facilities. 4.03. Operation of the Facilities by the City. Upon the acceptance of the Facilities by the City, the City will operate the Facilities and provide services from the Facilities to users within the District without discrimination. The City shall at all times maintain the Facilities, or cause the same to be maintained, in good condition and working order and will operate the same, or cause the same to be operated, in an efficient and economical manner at a reasonable cost and in accordance with sound business principles, and the City will comply with all the terms and conditions of this Agreement and with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations.

If requested by the District, the City may provide a City representative to attend a District meeting to discuss any operating and maintenance information regarding the Facilities. 4.04. Rates and Conditions of Service. The connection of improvements to the Facilities shall be made by the City, in the same manner, by the same procedures, and for the same charges as the City makes other water and wastewater connections. Water and wastewater customers within the District shall pay rates and charges for such services to the City, on the same basis and conditions as the City provides such services to similar City customers who do not receive services from the Facilities; provided, however, in addition to the rates and charges imposed by the City on its water and wastewater customers outside the District, the City shall impose on and collect from each customer of the Facilities within the District a monthly surcharge of five dollars ($5.00) per equivalent single family residential connection. The equivalent number of single family residences attributable to any particular connection shall be computed in accordance with the service unit factors set forth in Exhibit "A" as such factors may be amended from time to time by the City in its sole discretion, provided that the City shall always apply the same service unit factors within the District as it applies to other areas within the City. The City shall bill and collect charges from the customers of the Facilities, calculated in accordance with this Section 4.04, in the same manner and under the same procedures as it bills and collects from other customers of the City that are not served by the Facilities. 4.05. Repair of the Facilities. After its acceptance of the Facilities, the City shall provide all personnel and equipment necessary to perform repairs on, and shall bear sole cost responsibility for repair of, the Facilities, including, but not limited to, service line leaks, leaks at water meters, water main breaks, repairs to valves and fire hydrants, manhole repairs, and sewer line repair and cleaning, as needed. The City shall not, however, bear cost or responsibility for initial repair of any equipment or facilities identified by the City as in need of correction prior to the City's acceptance of the Facilities under Section 4.02 above. The cost of all materials and supplies used to operate, maintain, and repair the Facilities shall be borne solely by the City. ARTICLE V CITY PLANT CAPACITY AND FINANCING 5.01. Water Supply and Distribution Facilities. The City shall provide the District with its ultimate requirements for water supply and distribution capacities. The number and location of the points of connection between the City's water distribution system and the Facilities shall be mutually agreed upon by the District and the City Manager. The City acknowledges its obligation to provide water supply and distribution capacities for the actual requirements of the development within the District's boundaries. Any water supply and distribution capacities so required by the District shall be reserved and allocated by the City exclusively to serve the property within the District and the City shall not use such capacities to serve any other property. The City shall at all times manage the capacities in its water supply and distribution facilities so that capacity to serve development within the District is available at the time such improvements are to be connected to the Facilities. The City's obligation shall specifically include the obligation to expand, enlarge, and modify its water supply and distribution facilities and to secure all necessary approvals of the Approving Bodies as necessary to have capacity available to serve new improvements within the District. To enable the City to effectively manage its water system capacities in compliance with the City's obligation under this Section 5.01, the District shall provide to the City, by December 31 ::ODMA\MHODMA\Houston;582280;1 page 7 of each year during the term of this Agreement, a written projection of the new improvements within the District expected to be connected to the Facilities within the coming year, and such other related information as the City may reasonably require. 5.02. Wastewater Collection and Treatment Facilities. The City shall provide the District with its ultimate requirements for wastewater collection and treatment capacities. The number and location of the points of connection between the City's wastewater collection system and the Facilities shall be mutually agreed upon by the District and the Director. The City acknowledges its obligation to provide wastewater collection and treatment capacities for the actual requirements of the development within the District's boundaries. Any wastewater collection and treatment capacities so required by the District shall be reserved and allocated by the City exclusively to serve the property within the District and the City shall not use such capacities to serve any other property. The City shall at all times manage the capacities in its wastewater collection and treatment facilities so that capacity to serve development within the District is available at the time such improvements are to be connected to the Facilities. The City's obligation shall specifically include the obligation to expand, enlarge, and modify its wastewater collection and treatment facilities and to secure all necessary approvals of the Approving Bodies as necessary to have capacity available to serve new improvements within the District. To enable the City to effectively manage its wastewater system capacities in compliance with the City's obligation under this Section 5.02, the District shall provide the City no less than annually a written projection of the new improvements within the District expected to be connected to the Facilities within the coming year, and such other related information as the City may reasonably require. 5.03. Letter of Capacity Assurance; Assignability. The City agrees that the City Manager shall, upon reasonable request from the District, issue a letter of assurance to the owner of platted property within the District confirming water and wastewater utility availability for such platted property, based upon the standard City criteria published by the City regarding the calculation of water and wastewater requirements for various types of improvements. 5.04 Financing City Water and Wastewater Capacities. In consideration of the City's provision of water supply and distribution capacity and wastewater collection and treatment capacity, the District agrees to pay to the City two thousand six hundred seventy eight dollars ($2678) per equivalent single-family residential connection to the Facilities (the "Connection Charge"). Equivalent single-family residential connections shall be computed in accordance with the service unit factors as set forth in Exhibit "A," as such factors may be amended from time to time by the City in its sole discretion, provided that the City shall always apply the same service unit factors within the District as it applies to other areas within the City. The Connection Charge shall be paid to the City by or on behalf of the District before the connection of each particular improvement to the Facilities at the same time and manner as such fees are paid for improvements in other areas of the City outside the District. The City shall not allow connection of any improvement to the Facilities for which the appropriate Connection Charge has not been paid. The City may amend the Connection Charge from time to time in accordance with the requirements of state law; provided, however, the Connection Charge shall be the same as the connection charge required outside the District and within the City limits. The District acknowledges and agrees that, besides the Connection Charge, any new connection to the Facilities will be subject to the fees, charges, and costs routinely collected by the City in regards to any new connection to the City's utilities whether inside or outside the District. ::ODMA\MHODMA\Houston;582280;1 page 8 ARTICLE VI ANNUAL PAYMENTS, MONTHLY REVENUE PAYMENTS. AND DISTRICT TAXES 6.01. Calculation of Annual Payment. (a) In consideration of the development of the land within the District and the related increase in the taxable value of such land to the City through the acquisition of and construction of the Facilities by the District and in order to enhance the economic feasibility of the District and more equitably distribute among the taxpayers of the City and the District the burden of ad valorem taxes to be levied from time to time by the City and the District, the City agrees to collect and pay to the District a portion of the ad valorem taxes collected by the City in future years on the land and improvements within the District (the "Annual Payment"). The Annual Payment shall be a payment of a portion of the City's tax revenues actually collected and received by the City, exclusive of any interest and penalties paid by the taxpayer to the City and exclusive of any collection costs incurred by the City. All Annual Payments received by the District from the City shall be deposited by the District into a debt service fund of the District and shall be applied solely to the payment of the Bonds and other debts, liabilities, and obligations of the District to or for the benefit of any persons or entities relating to the financing, construction, and acquisition of all or any portion of the Facilities. (b) The initial Annual Payment shall be at a rate of $0.15 per $100 of assessed valuation. (c) The Annual Payment shall be incrementally reduced upon the occurrence of the following: (i) The Developer and all developers within the District have been fully reimbursed, with interest, in accordance with the rules of the TNRCC; (ii) The District has completely financed and constructed 100% of its Facilities; and (iii) The District levies a debt service tax at a rate that is less than $0.80 per $100 of assessed valuation. (d) Once all the conditions of subsection (c) have been met, the Annual Payment shall be reduced by an amount equal to the decrease in the District debt service tax rate. For example, if the Board of Directors of the District sets a debt service tax rate of $0.79 per $100 of assessed valuation (a decrease of $0.01), the Annual Payment will be reduced by $0.01 to $0.14 per $100 of assessed valuation. The Annual Payment will be recalculated annually, and will continue to be reduced to the extent that the District debt service tax rate is decreased. For example, if the Board of Directors of the District sets a debt service tax rate of $0.70 per $100 of assessed valuation (an aggregate decrease of $0.10), the Annual Payment would be $0.05 per $100 of assessed valuation. Once the Annual Payment is reduced, it shall not thereafter be increased, and any increase in the District debt service tax rate does not affect the calculation of the Annual Payment. (e) If the District debt service tax rate decreases to the rate of $0.65 per $100 of assessed valuation, the City is thereafter relieved of any obligation to make Annual Payments pursuant to this Agreement. Any subsequent increase in the District debt service tax rate does not obligate the City to again make Annual Payments. ::ODMA\MHODMAUiouston;582280;1 page 9 6.02. Payment of Annual Payment. The Annual Payment shall begin on May 1 in the calendar year following the calendar year for which the District initially receives a tax roll from the appropriate county Appraisal District and shall be payable each May 1 thereafter (the "Payment Date"), with each such Annual Payment being applicable to the calendar year preceding the calendar year of each such May 1 (e.g., if the District receives a tax roll for the calendar year 1998, the Annual Payment for such year will be due May 1, 1999). Each Annual Payment that is not paid on or before the Payment Date shall be delinquent and shall incur interest at the rate of one percent (1 %) of the amount of the Annual Payment per month, for each month or portion thereof during which the Annual Payment remains unpaid. On September 1 of each calendar year, the City shall cause to be paid to the District those portions of the Annual Payment which reflect collections made by the City subsequent to the Payment Date. The obligation of the City to make Annual Payments to the District shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.14 below. 6.03. Supplemental Tax Rolls; Correction Tax Rolls; Adjustment to Annual Payment. The parties recognize and acknowledge that, from time to time, the County Appraisal District may submit to the District one or more supplemental tax rolls and/or correction tax rolls and that each such supplemental tax roll and/or correction tax roll may affect the total value of taxable properties within the District for a particular year and therefore the Annual Payment due and payable by the City for such year. The District agrees that promptly upon receiving a supplemental tax roll and/or correction tax roll, the District shall deliver such supplemental tax roll and/or correction tax roll to the City. Promptly upon receiving a supplemental tax roll and/or collection tax roll from the District, the City shall recalculate the amount of the Annual Payment pertaining thereto and shall notify the District of the amount of such recalculated Annual Payment. Within forty-five (45) days from the date on which the District receives notice of a recalculated Annual Payment, the City shall pay to the District the amount, if any, by which the recalculated Annual Payment exceeds the amount of the Annual Payment previously paid by the City to the District for the year in question, or the District shall pay to the City the amount, if any, by which the recalculated Annual Payment is less than the amount of the Annual Payment previously paid; provided, however, that if such amount in either instance is less than $1,000.00, rather than payment within such 45 days, the next Annual Payment shall be adjusted accordingly. 6.04. Payment of Monthly Revenue Payments. In addition to the Annual Payment, the City shall make a payment each month to the District ("Monthly Revenue Payment") equal to $5.00 per equivalent single-family connection located within the District; equivalent single-family connections shall be computed in accordance with the service unit factors as set forth in Exhibit "A," attached to this Agreement and incorporated for all purposes, as such factors may be amended from time to time by the City in its sole discretion, provided that the City shall always apply the same service unit factors within the District as it applies to other areas within the City. The Monthly Revenue Payment shall be paid by the City to the District within thirty (30) days of the last day of the month for which the Monthly Revenue Payment applies (the "Due Date"). Each Monthly Revenue Payment that is not paid on or before the Due Date shall be delinquent. If the City fails or refuses to pay a delinquent Monthly Revenue Payment for a period in excess of sixty (60) days from the receipt of written notice from the District regarding same, then each Monthly Revenue Payment included in such notice shall incur interest at the rate of one per cent (1%) of the amount of the Monthly Revenue Payment per month, for each month or portion thereof during which a Monthly Revenue Payment remains unpaid upon expiration of such sixty (60) day period. The obligation of the City to make Monthly Revenue Payments shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.14 hereof. The City and the District acknowledge ::ODMA\MHODMA\J{ouston;582280;1 page 10 and agree that the District is dependent upon the Monthly Revenue Payments in order that development within the District may be competitive with development in surrounding areas. 6.05. Access to Records for Verifying Calculation of Annual and Monthly Revenue Payments. The City shall maintain proper books, records, and accounts; shall provide the District with an accounting together with each Annual and/or Monthly Revenue Payment, and shall afford the District or its designated representatives reasonable access to its books, records, and accounts for purposes of verifying the amounts of each Annual Payment and/or Monthly Revenue Payment or recalculated Annual Payment and/or Monthly Revenue Payment which is or becomes due and payable by the City hereunder. The District shall maintain proper books, records, and accounts of all Bonds and the District's debt service requirements and shall afford the City or its designated representatives reasonable access thereto for purpose of verifying the amounts of Annual and/or Monthly Revenue Payments relative to the District's debt service requirements and general operating requirements. 6.06. District Taxes. The District is authorized to assess, levy, and collect ad valorem taxes upon all taxable properties within the District to provide for (i) the payment in full of the District Obligations, including principal, redemption premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds and to establish and maintain any interest and sinking fund, debt service fund, or reserve fund and (ii) for maintenance purposes, all in accordance with applicable law. The parties agree that nothing herein shall be deemed or construed to prohibit, limit, restrict, or otherwise inhibit the District's authority to levy ad valorem taxes as the Board of Directors of the District from time to time in its sole discretion may determine to be necessary. The City and the District recognize and agree that all ad valorem tax receipts and revenues collected by the District, together with all Annual Payments and Monthly Revenue Rebate Payments shall become the property of the District and may be applied by the District to the payment of all proper debts, obligations, costs, and expenses of the District and may be pledged or assigned to the payment of all or any designated portion of the principal or redemption premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds or otherwise in accordance with applicable law. Each party to this Agreement agrees to notify the other party as soon as is reasonably possible in the event it is ever made a party to or initiates a lawsuit for unpaid taxes. 6.07. Pledge of Payments. The parties acknowledge and agree that the District may pledge the Annual Payments, the Monthly Revenue Payments, and/or any portion of either in connection with the District's issuance of its Bonds. ARTICLE VII DISSOLUTION OF THE DISTRICT 7.01. Dissolution of District. The City and District recognize and agree that the City may, pursuant to the procedures and provisions and subject to the limitations set forth in the general laws of the State of Texas including, but not limited to, Section 43.074, Texas Local Government Code, abolish and dissolve the District and assume the District Assets and District Obligations upon a vote of not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the entire membership of the City Council to adopt an ordinance to such effect, if the City Council finds: (a) that the District is no longer needed, (b) that the services and functions performed by the District can be served and performed by the City, and (c) that it would be in the best interests of the citizens and property within the District and the City that the District be abolished. In order to ensure that the property owners and inhabitants of the City and the District are afforded sufficient time and opportunity to realize the benefits and public utility to be derived from the creation and operation of the District and the financing, construction ::ODMA\M-IODMA\Houston;582280;1 page 11 and implementation of the plan of improvements for the District, and in order to contribute to the financial stability and feasibility of the District by ensuring a sufficient longevity of the District's existence to permit the District to reach a satisfactory level of financial maturity, the City agrees that the District shall not be abolished until such time as the District is fully developed and has sold all Bonds necessary to finance the costs of the Facilities and has reimbursed developer and landowners within the District in accordance with the Financing and Reimbursement Agreements previously entered into by the District. 7.02. Transition upon Dissolution. In the event all required findings and procedures for the dissolution of the District have been duly, properly, and finally made and satisfied by the City, and unless otherwise mutually agreed by the City and the District pursuant to then existing law, the District agrees that its officers, agents, and representatives shall be directed to cooperate with the City in any and all respects reasonably necessary to facilitate the dissolution of the District and the transfer of the District Assets to and the assumption of the District Obligations by the City. ARTICLE VIII REMEDIES IN EVENT OF DEFAULT The parties hereto expressly recognize and acknowledge that a breach of this Agreement by either party may cause damage to the non -breaching party for which there will not be an adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, in addition to all the rights and remedies provided by the laws of the State of Texas, in the event of a breach hereof by either party, the other party shall be entitled to the equitable remedy of specific performance. ARTICLE IX MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 9.01. Permits, Fees, Inspections. The District understands and agrees that all City ordinances and codes, including applicable permits, fees, and inspections, shall be of full force and effect within its boundaries the same as to other areas within the City's corporate limits. 9.02. Force Majeure. In the event either party is rendered unable, wholly or in part, by force majeure to carry out any of its obligations under this Agreement, except the obligation to pay amounts owed or required to be paid pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, then the obligations of such party, to the extent affected by such force majeure and to the extent that due diligence is being used to resume performance at the earliest practicable time, shall be suspended during the continuance of any inability so caused to the extent provided but for no longer period. As soon as reasonably possible after the occurrence of the force majeure relied upon, the party whose contractual obligations are affected thereby shall give notice and full particulars of such force majeure to the other party. Such cause, as far as possible, shall be remedied with all reasonable diligence. The term "force majeure," as used herein, shall include without limitation of the generality thereof, acts of God, strikes, lockouts, or other industrial disturbances, acts of the public enemy, orders of any kind of the government of the United States or the State of Texas or any civil or military authority, insurrections, riots, epidemics, landslides, lightning, earthquakes, fires, hurricanes, storms, floods, washouts, drought, arrests, restraint of government, civil disturbances, explosions, breakage or accidents to machinery, pipelines or canals, partial or entire failure of water supply resulting in an inability to provide water necessary for operation of the water and wastewater systems hereunder, and any other inabilities of any party, whether similar to those enumerated or ::ODMA'MHODMA\I-Iouston;582280;1 page 12 otherwise, which are not within the control of the party claiming such inability, which such party could not have avoided by the exercise of due diligence and care. 9.03. Approvals and Consents.
