Coexistence Agreement
EXECUTION COPY
COEXISTENCE AGREEMENT
TJ-IJS COEXISTENCE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), made and entered into
effective as of the _ day of October, 2007, by and between MARTIN MARlETT A
MATERIALS, INC., a Delaware corporation, also known and doing business as American
Aggregates Corporation (hereinafter jointly referred to as "Martin Marietta") and the BOARD
OF PUBLIC WORKS OF THE CITY OF CARMEL, a body politic of the state of Indiana (the
"BP\V"),
Witnesseth that:
BACKGROUND
Martin Marietta is in the business of extracting and selling sand, gravel, limestone and
other products (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Products" or "Minerals") for use in the
local construction industry and trades. To this end, Martin Marietta, and its predecessors, have
undertaken both surface and subsurface mining from a point south of East 96th Street to a point
north of East I] 6th Street, on both sides of what is now known as Hazel Dell Parkway
(previously known, in some sections, as River Road) as well as on both sides of Gray Road, in
both Marion County and Hamilton County, Indiana, as the case may be. Martin Marietta has
previously extracted minerals from a parcel which is approximately 20 acres in size, more or
less, located near the southeast comer of the intersection of Gray Road and East 106lh Street in
Hamilton County, Indiana, (excluding any area east of the west right of way line of the
North/South service road currently serving Concrete Industries, Inc. from I06th St.) such
property being more particularly described on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein
by this reference (the "Property").
Martin Marietta currently mines Products from beneaih the surface of the Property by
means of blasting. BPW has notified Martin Marietta that it intends to acquire, by contract, or
through its eminent domain powers, the entire Property by taking title to and possession of the
portion of the Property lying above the highest point of the ceiling of the mine (611 feet above
mean sea level) (hereinafter referred to as the "Surface Parcel") immediately, and taking title to
and possession of the portion of the Property situated beneath the Surface Parcel (hereinafter
referred to as the "Subsurface Parcel") after Martin Marietta has had sufficient time to complete
removal of the limestone and other Products contained therein. To that end BPW has filed a
Complaint under the Indiana Eminent Domain Act, IC 32"24-1 et. seq., which action is styled
and now pending as Board of Public Works and Safety of the City of Carmel, Indiana, on behalf
of Carmel Utilities vs. American Aggregates Corporation, d/b/a Martin Marietta Aggregates,
Hamilton Superior Cause No. 29D01-061 O-PL-I 055 (the "Lawsuit"). Martin Marietta and BPW
anticipate and intend to reach agreement on the temlS upon which BPW may acquire the
Property pursuant to its eminent domain powers, leaving, however, to be decided at a later date
either through negotiation or trial by jury pursuant to the Eminent Domain Act in the Lawsuit the
amount of damages to which Martin Marietta is entitled as a result of the taking of the Property.
Martin Marietta and BPW anticipate entering into a purchase agreement detailing all of the terms
of BPW' s acquisition of the Property, which agreement will include all of the terms for the initial
acquisition of the Surface Parcel and the deferred acquisition of the Subsurface Parcel.
BPW acknowledges that Martin Marietta has extracted Products from the Property and
surrounding areas for many years and intends to continue to remove underground limestone and
other Products from the Subsurface Parcel and from the surface and subsurface on parcels
surrounding the Property, and that it intends to continue to remove the stone primarily by
blasting and using such means and methods as are permitted under applicable laws. Further,
Martin Marietta operates an active mine on property adjacent to the Property and currently does
and will continue t6 transport, crush, screen, blast, wash, convey, stockpile, sell, and engage in
other activities normal and incident to the operation of a crushed stone quarry or mine and a sand
and gravel mine or quarry, using such. means and methods asare permitted under applicable state
and federal laws.
Martin Marietta has agreed to waive any and all objections that it might otherwise have to
the right, power and process undertaken by BPW to take the Property pursuant to the Indiana
Eminent Domain Act under and pursuant to the Lawsuit, in exchange for the agreement of BPW
to enter into this Agreement. BPW hereby further acknowledges and agrees that Martin Marietta
would not waive its right to object to the proposed taking of the Property by BPW but for the
entry into this Coexistence Agreement and the agreement of BPW to abide by the terms and
conditions hereof.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, and the sum ofTen and
0011 00 Dollars ($10.00) and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. lncornoration of BackgroundlRecitals and Effect of Agreement on Future
Contracts and Proceedings. The background and recitals set forth above are incorporated herein
by this reference as if fully restated herein as part of this Agreement. Upon execution of this
Agreement, Martin Marietta and BPW shall be bound as follows:
A Martin Marietta agrees to waive any and all objections that it might otherwise
have to the right, power and process undertaken by BPW to take the
Property pursuant to the Indiana Eminent Domain Act under and pursuant
to the Lawsuit; and
B BPW agrees to be bound by the tenns of this Agreement whether the parties
enter into a purchase agreement detailing all of the terms of BPW's
acquisition of the Property, or whether it obtains the Property pursuant to
its eminent domain powers.
2. BPW Covenants. BPW hereby covenants, acknowledges and agrees that for good
and valuable consideration, including but not limited to the agreement of Martin Marietta to
waive any objections it may have in and to the right ofBPW to acquire the Property, as follows:
2
A BPW shall initially develop and construct upon the Surface Parcel water
treatment facilities and relatcd improvements ("Water Treatment
Facilities") for the purpose of receiving, processing and distributing potable
water. Such Water Treatment Facilities and any other uses or
improvements on Property shall be designed, constructed and maintained
by BPW so as to withstand the impacts of the activities of Martin Marietta
known by BPW prior to construction of the Water Treatment Facilities and
normally conducted in Martin Marietta's business, including blasting,
whether conducted on the Subsurface Parcel or any other property owned
or controlled by Martin Marietta so long as Martin Marietta's activities
comply with state and federal law as the same exist on the date of this
Agreement and its mining practices and plans comply with the Martin
Marietta Covenants set out in Section 3 of this Agreement.
B BPW agrees that, for twenty"five (25) years from and after the date of this
Agreement, the Surface Parcel shall be used only for the development,
construction and operation of such Water Treatment Facilities, together
with other ancillary municipal uses ("Facilities"), provided that such
ancillary uses do not use more than 25% of the surface area of the Surface
Parcel. However, BPW agrees that the ancillary uses shall not include any
use which is considered hazardous, toxic, or requires a NPDES pemlit, air
discharge permit, or that could adversely affect the use, enjoyment or value
of the Subsurface Parcel or the adjoining property.
C BPW hereby waives, releases, imd agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
hannless Martin Marietta for all claims, whether based in contract, tort or
nuisance and for damage or damage alleged to have occurred to the
improvements constructed by BPW on the Surface Parcel, or for any other
matter or thing conducted or operated by BPW (or anyone on the Surface
Parcel pursuant to authority granted by BPW) on the Surface Parcel, which
actions stem from activities undertaken or activities alleged to have been
undertaken by Martin Marietta in and about the Subsurface Parcel or the
properties owned, leased, or otherwise controlled by Martin Marietta within
a two mile radius of the Property, so long as such activities were
undertaken by Martin Marietta in accordance with the covenants set forth
below in Section 3 of this Agreement and the applicable state and federal
laws for such operations as of the date of this Agreement. This release,
discharge, and indemnity as provided for above, includes but is not limited
to any and all reasonable legal fees incurred by Martin Marietta in
defending from any and all claims, actions and causes of actions of any
kind or nature arising out of the operations of Martin Marietta on its
property, whether based in contract or tort, so long as such operations
comply with the covenants set forth below in Section 3 of this Agreemcnt
and applicable state and federal laws. The indemnity set forth herein shall
be interpreted as broadly as permitted by Indiana law.
3
D B PW hereby agrees that it shall not attempt to take possession of the
Subsurface Parcel without Martin Marietta's consent until after Martin
Marietta has completed all excavation and mining related operations on the
Subsurface Parcel. Further, in the event BPW or any successor to BPW
shall nonetheless breach this covenant, and attempt to take possession of
the Subsurface Parcel prior to the above referenced event without Martin
Marietta's consent, Martin Marietta shall be entitled to damages in an
amount equal to the value of the entirety of the Property as if the prior
acquisition of the Property never occurred and without set-off for any
amounts previously paid by BPW for the Property.
E BPW further acknowledges that one of the reasons Martin Marietta has
resisted the lliking of it3 property is a concern that the proximity of a public
facility to its mining activities might be used in the future to limit, curtail or
prohibit Martin Marietta's mining activities. BPW has assured Martin
Marietta that neither its Water Treatment Facilities nor any other use of the
Property by BPW, nor its ownership of the Property will be used by BPW
to curtail, limit or prohibit any mining activity by Martin Marietta that is
lawful under current state or federal law and which mining activity is
consistent with the Martin Marietta Covenants set out in Section 3 of this
Agreement. This Agreement shall thus be interpreted and applied to further
such agreement to the maximum extent possible and this provision shall
prevail over any other part of this Agreement that is in any way inconsistent
with it. The rule of construction that provisions of an agreement shall all be
given effect and harmonized shall not apply to any inconsistency of this
provision with any other part of this Agreement and this provision shall be
given primacy in all cases of ambiguity or inconsistency.
F BPW acknowledges that Martin Marietta has arranged its facilities and
operations based on its ownership of the entire tract of which the Property
is a part .and agrees that BPW will not take any action against Martin
Marietta that would require Martin Marietta to change, diminish, modify, or
elimiriate operations to make them compliant with environmental, land use,
or nuisance based laws that may measure impacts or compliance at the new
property line established by the acquisition. As a part of this Agreement,
and prior to the conveyance or taking of any property, the parties shall
prepare and execute an acceptable easement permitting the determination of
compliance with any and all local, state, or federal laws, rules, or
regulations governing blasting impacts, air emissions, noise, light, water
discharge, applicable setbacks, side yards or similar restrictions, and any
other impacts from Martin Marietta's mining operations at the rights of way
lines along '106'h Street and Gray Road, as 'if Martin Marietta was the fee
owner of the Property, as long as the granting of the easement is in
accordance with applicable state and federal laws, and such equipment
utilized in this regard is erected in accordance with all applicable state and
federal laws and the granting of the easement and placement of such
4
equipment is done in a manner that BPW reasonably determines will not
interfere with its construction and operation of the Water Treatment
Facilities.
G BPW shall grant Martin Marietta an easement, leasehold, or other estate in
land permitting it to traverse the subsurface parcel for purposes of
aeeessing Martin Marietta's' other property, operating the rest of its mine
safely, or complying with any other governmental law, rule, or regulation
after the SUbsurface Parcel is acquired by BPW.
H BPW acknowledges that subsequent to its 'acquisition of the Surfaee Parcel,
and during and after the construction of its Water Treatment Facilities,
Martin Marietta intends to continue to mine the Produets from the
Subsurface Parcel. BPW agrees to compensate, indemnify, defend and
hold harmless Martin Marietta from and against any and all damages, costs,
claims or eauses of action of any kind or nature, caused by BPW, Carmel
Utilities or any of their employees, agents,. contractors, engineers, architects
or representatives or other persons working on behalf of BPW whether
based in contract or tert, in respect of any damage or destruction to any
property of Martin Marietta and/or persons situated in or about, or
employed and/or used in connection with the mining of Products from
Subsurface Parcel or any adJoining parcels, whether surface or subsurface,
during the construction and/or subsequent operation of the Water Treatment
Facilities. BPW shall pay all such damages or claims to Martin Marietta,
including all reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection
with enforcing the provisions of this paragraph H, within sixty (60) days of
the submission of a claim therefore by Martin Marietta, which claim shall
include reasonable detail. itemizing any and all damages and costs incurred
as a result of the activities ofBPW in connection with the Surface Parcel.
3. Martin Marietta Covenants. Martin Marietta hereby covenants, acknowledges
and agrees, for itself, its agents, employees, and affiliated eompanies, that for good and valuable
consideration, including but not limited to the covenants agreed to by BPW herein, as follows:
A Martin Marietta will continue to mine the Subsurface Parcel and any other
property owned or controlled by Martin Marietta in the immediate area,
using such mining practices and methods as are permitted under applicable
state and federal laws.
B Martin Marietta has advised BPW that it intends to lower the floor of the
existing Subsurface Parcel, which will affect the height of the pillars
supporting the roof of the underground mine. Martin Marietta agrees,
within fourteen (14) days 'after execution of this Agreement, to provide
BPW with the details of its plan to lower the floor of the existing
Subsurface Parcel and BPW has or will satisfy itself that the support
remaining thereafter is adequate to support whatever load BPW's activities
5
place on the roof of the mine. Martin Marietta agrees to carry out its efforts
to lower the tloor of the Subsurface Parcel in accordance with the plan
provided to BPW, and agrees not to materially deviate from that plan and
not to change the support syste'm under the Property, or within 200 feet of
its perimeter without giving BPW ninety (90) days notice of any changes to
that plan prior to implementation, and obtaining BPW's written consent.
BPW's consent shall be given within seventy-five (75) days of said notice
and shall not be umeasonably withheld.
4. Changes after Inspection. The parties agree that BPW or its agents need to
investigate and inspect the mine, the Property and the Surface and Subsurface Parcels. Martin
Marietta agrees to permit such investigations and inspection to occur immediately upon
execution of this Agreement. Such inspection includes, but is not limited to, inspecting and
measuring, surveying, photographing (including video recording), testing or sampling the
Property, including the mine and the Subsurface Parcel. After it acquires possession of the
Surface Parcel, BPW can install any testing equipment on the Surface Parcel that it finds useful.
Additionally, in order to allow' BPW or its agents to properly investigate the mine, Martin
Marietta agrees to provide BPW immediately upon execution of this Agreement with the
following documents and information: (i) a copy of the lease between Concrete Construction,
Inc. and Martin Marietta for the property just south of the Property; (ii) copies of any title liens
and encumbrances that are known to Martin Marietta but not filed of record in the office of the
Recorder of Hamilton County, Indiana, in respect of the Property; (iii) a copy of the mining plan
for the Surface and Subsurface Parcels and the area within 200 feet immediately surrounding it;
(iv) all reports and documents evaluating the structural support system for the mine which have
been prepared by Agapito Associates, Inc., or used by Agapito Associates, Inc., in preparation of
those reports and documents; and (v) a copy of any surveys or drawings of the mine underneath
the Property. If, after inspecting the above documents and information, BPW or its agents need
additional documents or information. related to the terms of this Agreement to properly
investigate and inspect the mine, Martin Marietta agrees to cooperate with BPW to provide the
documents or information to BPW. The purpose of the inspection shall be to pemlit designated
BPW employees and its consultants to evaluate the structural feasibility of the use of the
Property for BPW's purposes contemporaneously with Martin Marietta's use of the subsurface
parcel for mining, including any changes that may be made by Martin Marietta in the
configuration of the mine that would affect any use of the Property by BPW. It is contemplated
by the parties that this presents principally structural issues to be evaluated by BPW and its
consultants based on their inspection. Within 30 days following receipt of the report on the
inspection from Jones & Henry Engineers, Ltd., BPW shall notify Martin Marietta in writing ifit
finds it reasonably necessary, to modify this Agreement to make the Property structurally sound
so that the Water Treatment Facilities can be safely constructed and operated on it concurrently
with Martin Marietta's anticipated mining activities in the area. Any such amendment proposed
by BPW is hereinafter referred to as the "Structurally Required Amendment". Additionally,
BPW shall notify Martin Marietta in writing within 30 days following receipt of the report on the
inspection from Jones & Henry Engineers, Ltd. if it finds that it is reasonably necessary to amend
the Agreement to modify the boundaries of the Property to allow the Water Treatment Facilities
to be safely constructed and operated on it, and such proposed amendment shall be considered a
Structurally Required Amendment for purposes of this Section 4. Any modification of the
6
boundaries of the Property shall not materially interfere with Martin Marietta's mining of the
Subsurface Parcel or any surface parcel. If BPW fails to give notice of such a Structurally
Required Amendment, it shall be deemed to have waived its right to propose any changes to this
Agreement and shall be bound by it. The notice shall specify each change or addition to this
Agreement or the terms of its acquisition of the Property that BPW wishes made as a Structurally
Required Amendment. Provided, however, that BPW shall not be permitted to propose: (A)
changes in allowed blasting limits as long as those followed by Martin Marietta meet all
requirements of state and federal law; (B) any change thatlegally or practically impairs Martin
Marietta's ability to traverse the subsurface parcel to access other portions of its property, or
impairs the use of other portions of Martin Marietta's property not under or within 200 feet of
the Property; and (C) any change that legally or practically materially "impairs Martin Marietta's
ability to mine any subsurface or surface parcel. If BPW gives timely notice of a Structurally
Required Amendment, thereafter the parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any disputes
over the requested amendment. If the parties are unable to agree to the Structurally Required
Amendment proposed by BPW and, in the reasonable opinion of Martin Marietta, such
amendment will have a material adverse impact on any aspect of Martin Marietta's operations,
Martin Marietta may elect: (1) to withdraw from this Agreement and raise any defense or claim
available to it with respect to the condemnation; or (2) accept the change and recover full and
fair compensation as determined by the Court from BPW for the impact of BPW's requested
changes on Martin Marietta's operations, profits, reserves, or the value of its land" If Martin
Marietta decides to withdraw from this Agreement as a result of Structurally Required
Amendment, this Agreement will terminate, BPW may proceed with its condemnation, Martin
Marietta will be free to pursue the objections that it has filed in the Lawsuit and BPW will not be
limited in any way by the tem1S of this Agreement. If BPW determines as a result of such
inspection of the mine by BPW or its agents that, for reasons other than a Structurally Required
Amendment, it is not economically feasible for BPW to develop and construct the Water
Treatment Facilities on the Surface Parcel while Martin Marietta continues to mine Products and
Minerals from the Subsurface Parcel or from Martin Marietta's other mining operations, BPW
agrees to dismiss the Lawsuit and abandon its efforts to acquire by eminent domain all or any
part of the Property or any other property owned by Martin Marietta south of l16th Street and
east of Gray Road for purposes of constructing Water Treatment Facilities. Other than as set
forth above in this Section 4 in respect of a Structurally Required Amendment, Martin Marietta
shall not be compelled or required to negotiate an amendment to this Agreement and BPW shall
not be allowed to declare it terminated.
5. Purchase of Water. The parties agree to negotiate in good faith for BPW to
purchase the water that Martin Marietta removes from the Property or any adjoining properties
owned or controlled by Martin Marietta.
6. Sesimic Monitoring. After BPW's inspection and the resolution of any proposed
Structurally Required Amendments, if BPW still desires to acquire the Property, it shall be
entitled to install and maintain a seismograph on the Property for a period of not more than 30
days. All data gathered shall be the property of Martin Marietta and subject to the
Confidentiality Agreement entered into between the parties contemporaneously with this
agreement.
7
7. Confidentialitv and Return of Infornlation. All documents and information
provided to BPW or obtained by it pursuant to this Agreement, including but not limited to
seismic data from any monitor located on site while Martin Marietta still owns such property,
shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement referenced above.
8. Use of Material bv Experts. Each person (other than John Duffy) that is given
access to any information that is designated confidential, or who enters Martin Marietta's
property for any reason in connection with this Agreement shall first agree that no confidential
information obtained by him shall be used in any other case and that he will not agree voluntarily
to be a witness or a consultant for BPW, the City of Carmel, or any official of the City of Carmel
in any presently pending case or any case arising out of the facts of any presently pending case
involving Martin Marietta or the mine at issue, except for disputes that arise out of the
construction of the Water Treatment Facilities, this Agreement, or the Confidentiality and
Nondisclosure Agreement or Agreement for Purchase and Sale executed concurrently therewith.
9. Notices. Any notice, demand, request or other communication which any party
hereto may be required or may desire to give hereunder shall be in writing, addressed as follows
