This Settlement Agreement is for the resolution of the above-mentioned acquisition of real property from Cates and any associated claims. 2. This agreement is contingent on final approval by the City. In the event this Agreement is not approved by the City and executed by an authorized representative, this agreement is null and void and the Parties may continue as if there had never been an agreement. 3. The City agrees to pay the total compensation amount of $134,557.00 for the City's necessary 0.169 acre fee simple acquisition,described in Exhibit"A"attached hereto(the "Property"), any improvements situated thereon, and any damages or costs to cure the remaining property of Cates,if any(collectively the"Property"). 4. The Parties agree to settle this acquisition of the Property via a stipulated Special Commissioners' Hearing in a condemnation proceeding filed by the City against Cates and any additional parties with monetary liens affecting the Property,after which the City will deposit the amount awarded by the commissioners into the registry of the Court. Cates agrees to waive the right to file objections to a stipulated award of$134,557.00. If the commissioners award an amount other than the stipulated amount of$134,557, then the Parties agree to timely file objections and enter a judgment for $134,557.00, which amount will be deposited into the registry of the Court. 12`� 5. Cates shall be notified of the hearing date once set at the discretion of City, but agrees to waive the right to be formally served with Notice of Special Commissioners Hearing by City. Cates also waives any and all other prerequisites as required in Chapter 21 of the Texas Property Code for scheduling and setting up a Special Commissioners Hearing. Cates acknowledges that a final offer will not be received because the Parties have reached a negotiated agreement following the initial offer regarding the measure of fair market value to be paid the fee owner for acquisition of the Property. 6. The Parties agree that$134,557.00 is the final and total compensation amount payable to Cates and any lienholders with interests affecting the Property and is inclusive of any pre- judgment interest. The City shall receive credit for any funds previously paid pursuant to any PUA in this case. 7. Post judgment interest, if any, is tolled for a period of 60 days after the Court signs a judgment in this case. If the City fails to pay the remaining balance owed after credits from any PUA payments within the 60 days of the Court signing a judgment in this case, then Cates shall be entitled to post judgment interest only on the remaining balance that has not been paid at the statutory rate as of the date the judgment is signed by the Court until paid. 8. The City's sole compensation obligation shall be the total payment of$134,557.00 for the Property. Any compensation claims made in this case by parties to this lawsuit shall be satisfied from this payment without further recourse to the City. 9. If any party outside of this Agreement contests compensation and/or this settlement at any proceeding after this Agreement is fully executed, the City may terminate this contract, and the Parties may proceed with this lawsuit as if there had never been an agreement. 10. This Agreement may be filed as a Rule 11 agreement in any condemnation suit filed to acquire the Property. 11. The Parties bear their own costs of court as incurred. If this letter correctly sets forth the terms of our agreement and the settlement reached between the City and Cates,please indicate by having the appropriate person sign this letter in the space indicated below and return it to my attention.
