a. Capital Investment. If OWNER has failed to construct and place capital
improvements and furniture, fixtures, and equipment (the "Capital Investment
Commitment") on the PREMISES in the following cumulative amounts as of the
corresponding dates then COUNTY may, at COUNTY's sole option, require
OWNER to repay all taxes abated herein to date on a prorated basis.
Capital Investment Commitment

January 1, 2001
$2,000,000
anus 1, 2003
$3,000,000
anus 1, 2006
The proration formula shall be a percentage based on the actual Capital Investment
Commitment completed relative to the Capital Investment Commitment multiplied by the
amount of any Tax Abatement received to date:
Example:
Capital Investment Commitment: $3,000,000
Actual Capital Investment Commitment expended: $2,000,000
• $3,000,000 - 52,000,000 - $1,000,000

$1,000,000 divided by $3,000,000 - .33
.33 multiplied by 100 - 33%
33% multiplied by total taxes abated to date - amount of repayment
Additionally, if as of January 1, 2001, OWNER has failed to construct the first phase
of the improvements on the PROPERTY, then COUNTY may, at COUNPY's sole option,
terminate this Agreement.
b. Payroll. If at the end of any calendar year during the term of this Agreement,
OWNER fails to meet the total payroll set forth in Section 10 hereof, COUNTY shall
notify OWNER in writing of OWNER's default, and OWNER shall have thirty (30)
days after receipt of such written notice to cure such default. If OWNER fails to cure
OWNER's default, the COUNTY may, at COUNTY's sole option require OWNER
to repay the current year's Tax Abatement on a prorated basis. The proration formula
shall be a percentage based upon the actual total payroll relative to the target total
payroll for the current year.
Example:
•
Total Target Payroll $1,280,320
Actual Payroll $1,000,000
$1,280,320 - $1,000,000 - $280,320
$280,320 divided by $1,280,320 - .22
.22 multiplied by 100 - 22%
22% multiplied by total taxes abated for current year - amount of repayment
c. Cessation of Operations. In the event OWNER ceases operations at the
facilities on the PREMISES within eight (8) years from the Execution Date of this
Agreement, OWNER shall be in default. COUNTY shall provide OWNER written
notice of OWNER's default. If such default is not cured within thirty (30) days from
the date written notice is received by OWNER from COUNTY, COUNTY may, at
COUNTY's sole option, terminate the tax abatement as described herein to OWNER
after the date of such default and OWNER shall repay to COUNTY the amount of
County taxes previously abated in prior years.
d. Failure to Construct. COUNTY and OWNER further agree that if OWNER
does not diligently, faithfully and conscientiously pursue the completion of all phases
of the contemplated construction on the PREMISES, in accordance with the Plans (or
revised Plans) and schedule in Sections, 1.12, 1.13, and 1.15 of that certain Economic
Development Agreement between the City of College Station, OWNER and the
Economic Development Corporation dated March 29, 1999, the terms of which are
incorporated herein by reference, and OWNER's application for tax abatement,
COUNTY shall have the right to renegotiate or terminate this Agreement, and
OWNER shall pay to the COUNTY the taxes that would have been paid to
• Page 5
N MQU
i
COUNTY had not OWNER's toes been reduced under the terms of this Agreement
on a pro rata basis as set forth in the Schedule established in Section 12 hereinabove.
13. Payment of Taxes after Default
Should the OWNER be required to pay the COUNTY the taus that would have been
paid to COUN'T'Y had the taxes not been abated under the terms of this Agreement, it shall
pay such recaptured taxes plus interest at the rate provided for delinquent taxes in accordance
with V.T.C.A., Tax Code, Section 33.01. Such payment of taxes and interest shall be due
within thirty (30) days of COUNTY's termination of this Agreement and notification to
OWNER of the termination of this Agreement and of the amount of taxes and interest due.
The taxes and interest are delinquent and incur penalties as provided by law for ad valorem
taxes imposed by COUNTY if not paid before February 1 of the year following the date on
which the termination of this Agreement occurs.
If OWNER believes that such recapture is improper, OWNER may file suit in the
Brazos County district courts appealing such termination within sixty (60) days after the
written notice of the termination by the COUNTY. If an appeal suit is filed, OWNER shall
remit to the COUNTY, within such sixty (60) days after the notice of termination, any
additional and/or recaptured taxes as may be payable during the pendency of the litigation
pursuant to the payment provisions of Section 42.08, Texas Tax Code. If the final
determination of the appeal increases OWNER's tax liability above the amount of tax paid,
OWNER shall remit the additional tax to the COUNTY pursuant to Section 42.42, Texas
Tax Code. If the final determination of the appeal decreases OWNER's tax liability, the
COUNTY shall refund the OWNER the difference between the amount of tax paid and the
amount of tax for which OWNER is liable pursuant to Section 42.43, Texas Tax Code.
14. OWNER shall certify in writing to COUNTY that all construction of the
improvements to the PROPERTY has been completed in accordance with the approved
plans. After receipt of this certification, COUNTY shall make a final inspection of
PREMISES to verify whether PREMISES have been constructed in compliance with this
Agreement; and that upon so finding, COUNTY shall issue a Certificate of Compliance. The
COUNTY, at its sole option, may rely upon the Certificate of Compliance issued by the City
of College Station.
15. The tax exemption provided for by this Agreement shall exempt the value of the land,
buildings and the other permanent improvements. Taxes on personalty shall also be abated,
but only on those items of personalty described on a schedule of property to be furnished to
the COUNTY, no later than December 31, annually, and approved and accepted by
COUNTY as eligible for abatement pursuant to the Texas Tax Code. This tax abatement shall
apply to the value of the PREMISES over and above the value certified by the Brazos County
Appraisal District of the PROPERTY for the 1999 tax year (herein the Base Year). Such
abatement shall be effective for the following years and in the following percentages under the
terms, conditions and limitations provided herein:

(i) the taxable value of the real and personal property comprising the PREMISES taking into
consideration the abatement provided by this Agreement, and (ii) the full taxable value
without abatement of the real and personal property comprising the PREMISES. The Chief
Appraiser shall record both the abated taxable value and the full taxable value in the records.
The full taxable value figure listed in the appraisal records shall be used to compute the
amount of abated taxes that are required to be recaptured and paid in the event this
Agreement is terminated in a manner that results in recapture. Each year the OWNER shall
furnish the Chief Appraiser with such information outlined in Chapter 22, Texas Tax Code,
as amended, as may be necessary for the administration of this Agreement.
17. Representation.
•
OWNER represents and warrants that no member of the College Station City
Council, the Brazos County Commissioners Court or County judge has an interest in the
Premises or the Property and that the same are not owned or leased by any member of the
College Station City Council, the Brazos County Commissioners Court or County Judge.
OWNER further represents that no member of the College Station City Council, Brazos

After being shelved for nearly four years, modifications were required to the Jail plans as required
by changes in the laws of several regulatory agencies and new owner requirements. This makes the
billing more complicated and necessitates the following explanation.
The architectural/engineering fee structure is based upon:
A percentage of the base bid amount ($4,315,000.00).
Hourly costs for handicapped modifications, new Jail Standards requirements, owner
initiated changes, and alternates 1, 2, and 3.
Reimbursement for direct personal expenses.
STATEMENT:
Percentage:
In the Owner-Architect Agreement, the percentage fee is fixed at 7% of the base bid. To date,
Emmett Trant & Associates (original architect) has been paid $213,360.00, being approximately
75% of the total fee. Ravey & Associates (current architect) herein submits for the next portion of
the fee, being the stage 80% due upon completion of bidding.
