SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
This Settlement Agreement (this "Agreement") is made and entered into to be effective as
of the 17th day of July, 2008, by and among the City of Carmel, Indiana (the "City" or "Carmel"),
Mayor James Brainard ("Brainard"), the Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals ("BZA"), Martin
Marietta Materials, Inc. ("Martin Marietta"), and E & H Mueller Development L.L.C.
("Mueller") (collectively, the "Parties"). The BZA, Michael Hollibaugh, and Mueller are made
parties hereto only for certain limited purposes, as set forth more fully herein.
BACKGROUND
Martin Marietta and its predecessors; which include American Aggregates Corporation
("American"), for decades have operated an open pit quarry, underground mine, surface sand and
gravel pit/quarry, and topsoil storage and sale, together with both mobile and stationary
processing plants and related equipment on various properties in the vicinity of 96th St. and
Hazel Dell Parkway, and running north froin 96th St. up to, at one point, l16th St., in Hamilton
County, in or near Carmel, Indiana (collectively, the "Martin Marietta Property"). Such
operations of Martin Marietta and its predecessors in interest are referred to collectively as the
"Carmel Quarry." Martin Marietta's property is also used for other related land uses, including
concrete plants and asphalt plants (herein sometimes referred to as the "Related Industries"),
which benefit Martin Marietta's mining operations. Martin Marietta possesses considerable
mineral reserves yet to be mined at the Carmel Quarry, and one of its prinCipal goals in reaching
this settlement, and without which it would not enter into this Agreement, is to protect its ability
to mine those reserves from the Carmel Quarry without additional or new ordinances, laws or
regulations being imposed on its or its tenants' operations. Brainard's and the City's goals in
reaching this settiement are to terminate litigation that has been costly to the City while at the
1/2]76475.4
same time protecting Cannel residents from potentially adverse impacts. that they claim could
result from Martin Marietta's proposed expansion of its exi~ting mining operations.
On or about November 5, 1997, American and the City entered into a certain Agreement
in which American, among other things, conveyed certain land to Cannel for the construction of
Hazel Dell Parkway, a copy bfwhi~h is attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and incorporated herein
by reference (the "Hazel DelJAgreement"). On or about August 27,2001, The Helen M. MueUer
Conservatorship, Mueller, Martin Marietta and the City, by and through its Board of Public
Works and Safety, entered into that certain Settlement Agreement with respect to certain
property commonly known today as Hazel Dell Parkway, a copy of which is attached hereto as
Exhibit "B" and incorporated herein by reference (the "Mueller, Agreement"). The Hazel Dell
Agreement and the Mueller Agreement created certain rights in the parties that came to be a part
of the current dispute that is now being settled. Moreover, on or about May 17, 2002, Martin
Marietta, the City, the BZA, the Kingswdod Homeowners Association, Inc. ("Kingswood"), and
Hughey, Inc. entered into a certain Settlement and Release Agreement, attached hereto as
Exhibit "C", whereby earlier litigation involving the parties was settled (the "Kingswood
Settlement").
ARTICLE I. .
Martin Marietta's Special Use Permit Applications
On or about January 1,2000, Martin Marietta entered into a long. term lease with Mueller
for certain property commonly referred to as "Mueller North Property" and "Mueller South
Property", generally located at the northwest comer and southwest comer, respectively, of I 06th
Street and Hazel Dell Parkway, in the-City of Carmel, such properties being more particularly
described on Exhibits "D-l" and "D-2" attached hereto and incorporated herein by this
reference (the "Mueller North. Property" and. the "Mueller South Property"; such properties
- 2 -
1/2176475.4
hereinafter sometimes jointly referred to as the "Mueller Property"). Thereafter, on or about
December 13, 2002, Martin Marietta applied for five (5) separate speCial use permits to allow
various open pit, underground, and sand and .gravel mining on the Mueller Property.
Martin .Marietta's application to mine sand and gravel on the Mueller South Property was
subsequently approved with commitments by the BZA on or about December 13, 2004. Martin
Marietta's application to mine sand ahd gravel on the Mueller North Property was subsequently
approved with commitments by the BZA on or about June 30, 2005.
On or about April 24, 2006; the BZA denied Martin Mariettats application to conduct
surface (open pit) mining on the Mueller South Property (the "Open Pit Application"). Martin
Marietta thereafter filed the action denominated as Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. v. Brainard et
al., 1 :06-CV -00825-DFH- TB, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of
Indiana (the "Federal Suit").
Martin Marietta's application to condtictunderground mmmg on the Mueller South
Property is scheduled to be heard by the BZA on July 17, 2008. On that same date, the BZA will
vote on whether to accept the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Martin Marietta's
application to conduct underground mining operations on the Mueller North Property has not
been docketed for hearing by the BZA and will be withdravvn if the conditions of this Agreement
are met by the BZA. Further, if this Agreement is approved, Martin Marietta has agreed to
certain restrictions on the use of certain of its property north of 106th St., as well as certain
restrictions on the use ofthe Mueller Property.
ARTICLE II.
The Mining Ordinance Dispute
Carmel has enacted two (2) separate mining ordinances purporting to regulate Martin
Marietta's mining operations. Both have been disputed by Martin Marietta; one . was
- 3 -
1/2176475.4
subsequently withdrawn", and a second ordinance, Carmel Ordinance" No. D-] 688-04, as
Amended (the "Mining Ordinance"), was initially enjoined by Hamilton Superior Court but the
trial court's ruling on the injunctiOIi was reversed by the indiana Supreme Court. See City. of
Carmel v. Martin Marietta Materials. Inc., 883 N.E.2d 78] (Ind, 2008). One of the conditions of
this Agreement is that the Mining Ordinance shall not apply to the Martin Marietta Property or
the Mueller Property; instead, this Agreement and the Statement of Commitments (incorporated
herein, infra) shall govern Martin Marietta's mining operations on the Martin Marietta Property
and the Mueller Property, as applicable.
ARTICLE III.
The Eminent Domain Action
The parties are presently engaged in other litigation matters that will all be dismissed
with prejudice, infra, wit~ the exception of a dispute over the valuation of certain property
Carmel desires to acquire by eminent domain for use as a raw water treatment facility (the
"Water Plant Real Estate"). The dispute over the Water Real Estate Plant is currently pending in
Hamilton Superior Court as Carmel Board of Public Works v. American Aggregates, Cause No.
29DOI-061O-PL-I055 (the "Eminent Domain ActionIP).Martin Marietta has previously disputed
BPW's right to take the Water Plant Real Estate, but as a part of this and other agreements,
Martin Marietta has agreed to a voluntary conveyance of a portion of such property, subject to
determination of its value either by subsequent agreement or in the pending Eminent Domain
Action.
ARTICLE IV.

particular the covenants running with the land as described in Section 8(h) of the Hazel Dell
- 12 -
1/2176475.4
Agreement. Martin Marietta will organize and conduct its mining operations in the future in
reliance- on this Agreement and the Hazel Dell Agreement. Finally, Martin Marietta has agreed

Parkway, including a claimed right to engage in open pit and underground mining on all land it
owns or leases north of East 106th St. and west of Hazel Dell Parkway, and to Withdraw its
application to mine underground on the Mueller North Property.
For these, and other reasons, including the many years of mining and other operations
Martin Marietta has conducted on site, Martin Marietta has vested rights to engage -in mining on
property it owns or leases in accordance with the terms hereof, the commitments; permits arid
authorizations contemplated hereby and/or referenced herein, and the Carmel zoning and other
ordinances as they presently exist. Therefore, Carmel hereby acknowledges and agrees that
Martin Marietta shall not be required to obtain any additional land use, special use, improvement
location, or other permits to engage in. such mining and other operations as are permitted
hereunder, except for the permits described herein, and necessary construction related permits,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and shall not be withheld
based on any land use regulation or other restriction enacted hereinafter by the City. Further,
except for regulations of a general character applicable to all businesses in Carmel, and which do
not interfere materially with lawful operations on the Martin Marietta Property' and the Mueller
Property, Martin Marietta's operations on these properties (as defined) shall not be subject to and
shall be exempt from future laws, ordinances, or regulations, including but not limited to any
"mining ordinances," current or future, and regardless of whether such ordinances are passed

general police power.
- 13 -
1/2176475.4
The City acknowledges that Martin Marietta has and is conducting mining operations on
its real estate, including that portion of its real estate from which the Water Plant Real Estate will
be conveyed, and on the Mueller Property. Subject to the limitations agreed to by Martin
Marietta in Article VI, -Section 8 hereof, the City also acknowledges that Martin Marietta, and its
successors and assigns, will continue to conduct mining operations on the Martin Marietta
Property following the execution of this Agreement, and on such parts of the Mueller Property
for which it has previously been issued a special use permit or is issued such a permit pursuant to
the BZA proceedings contemplated by this Agreement, or otherwise has a right to mine under
agreements entered into previously.
Carmel is familiar with the Martin Marietta Property and Mueller Property owned or
leased by Martin Marietta and its operations thereon and described hereinabove, has conducted
inspections of -it in the past, and acknowledges that there is an adequate factual basis for the
establishment of the vested rights recognized hereunder. Based on its inspections and
opportunity to inspect operations on the Martin Marietta Property and Mueller Property, Carmel
hereby acknowledges that it has had an adequate opportunity to determine whether mining
operations as they presently exist and are conducted on property o\\-ned or leased by Martin
Marietta comply in aU material respects with all applicable Carmel laws and regulations, and
hereby confirms that, to the best of its knowledge such operations are in compliance in all
material respects.
Carmel further acknowledges that this Section 16 is an essential component of this
Agreement for Martin Marietta and this Agreement would fail of its essential purpose for Martin
Marietta if this Section were not enforced in accordance with its terms and construed broadly to
eflectuate its purpose of confirming that the existing operations and such additional operations as
are contemplated hereby on the Martin Marietta Property and the Mueller Property are vested
- 14 -
1/21764754
against and protected from interference from subsequently adopted laws or regulations, other
than those specifically excepted herein. In any action to enforce this Agreement, Carmel shall
not be entitled to claim that this Agreement or any part of it, or Section 8(h) of the. Hazel Dell
Agreement, is unenforceable because of Carmel's legislative powers, its police or zoning power,
or any general health, safety, or welfare power.' Provided, however, that nothing contained
herein shall prevent Carmel from enforcing its laws and regulations as they presently exist
(excluding the Mining Ordinance, which the Parties agree shall not apply to Martin Marietta's
mining operations on the Martin Marietta Property or the Mueller Property).
17. Preservation of Remedies. The parties disagree over the remedies available for a
breach of the' Hazel Dell Agreement and nothing in this Agreement, the negotiations leading up
to it, drthe fact of entering into it, is intended to preserve or to waive any available remedies
under such agreement, it being the express agreement of the parties that whether any remedies
otherwise available under the Hazel Dell Agreement have been waived or preserved be

information on such Reportable Events to Vibra-Tech Inc. for its review
and a~alysis. 'Within twenty (20) days after such data is submitted to
Vibra- Tech, or at such time as is agreed to by DOCS, Martin Marietta and
Vibra- Tech shall meet with Does to discuss the Reportable Events and
6
any recommendations by Vibra- Tech with respect to blasting patterns or
practices to minimize, Reportable Events. It shall not be presumed that a
change in blasting patterns or practices is necessary merely because of
such Reportable Events, but if Vibra- Tech reasonably believes that a
change is necessary to prevent frequent Reportable Events, it shall
recommend such changes in blasting practices, as it deems necessary.
These recommendations shall be discussed at the meeting with DOCS, and
Martin Marietta shall he entitled to suggest changes or modifications to
the recommendations that would make them less onerous or more
acceptable! and Vibra-Tech shall consider Martin Marietta's comments in
that regard. Withip. ten (10) days after the meeting, however, Vibra- Tech
shall finalize its recommendation arid Martin Marietta agrees to implement
such commercially reasonable recommendations as expeditiously as is

determine that Martin Marietta is complying with the reporting ohligations
with respect to Reportable Events contained herein. Any audit report by
Vibra- Tech shall report only whether Martin Marietta has complied with
its reporting obligations herein and, if it has not, the instances and manner
in which it has not complied, including the information and data required
to be submitted by Martin Marietta for any Reportable Event.
4. In January of each year, Vibra-Tech shall review Martin. Marietta's
blasting records and blasting programs for the prior year for the purpose of
making such recominendations as Vi bra- Tech believes may reasonably be
necessary to reflect changes in the state of blasting technology that have
become commercially practicable. Martin Marietta agrees to consider the
recoinmended changes in good faith, and to implement those that do not
unreasonably interfere with its operations a.nd are commercially
practicable, but otherwise shall be under no obligation to implement them
so long as it has less than three Reportable Events during the previous
calendar year.
5. An air overpressure measurement in excess of 120 db shall also be deemed
a Reportable' Event and the occurrence of five (5) such air overpressure
Reportable Events in ~ one hundred twenty day (120) period shall trigger
the requirements set forth _ above in subparagraph (2) above. Air
overpressure and vibration Reportable Events shall not be combined to
trigger the requirements. of subparagraph (2) above.
6. In the event Vibra- Tech is unable to serve in the capacity described
hereinabove, Martin Marietta shall propose to DOCS another nationally
recognized engineer with experience in mining activities such as those
undertaken by Martin Marietta on the Real Estate. Such replacement shall
be reasonably acceptable to DOCS. -

frequency below 20hz. Iu the event that in any calendar twelve (12)
month period more than an average of two (2) blasts per month have a
frequency level of less than 20hz for any blasts that exceed .2 inches per
second peak particle velpcity, Martin Marietta shall submit all information
in respect thereto to Vibra- Tech for its review and analysis. As a part of
the next succeeding blasting report contemplated by this paragraph 6,
Martin Marietta shall submit to the Director the recommendations made
by Vi bra- Tech in order to m.odify the blasting practices so as to achieve
the goal of frequencies at or above 20hz for blasts that exceed .2 inches
per second peak particle velocity.
D. Reportable Events.
1. Martin Marietta shall report to the DOCS any blast that exceeds .5 inches
per second, or otherwise does not comply with the Bureau of Mines

-velocity at any of the monitors required hereunder in subparagraph B.1.(e)
above (such blasts are hereafter referred to as "RepoItable Events")_ The
report to DOCS shall contain complete information with respect to such
Reportable Events, including blast layout and design, together with all
seismic, decibel, weather and other data gathered as part of Martin
Marietta's monitoring.
Martin Marietta agrees to cooperate with the Director with respect to
investigations of complaints about blasting and to provide information and

calendar year, within ten (10) days of the fifth event Martin Marietta shall
submit all information on ~l.lch Reportable Events to Vibra- Tech Inc. for
its review and analysis. Within twenty (20) days after such data is
submitted to Vibra- Tech, or at such time as is agreed to by DOCS, Martin
Marietta and Vibra-Tech shall meet with DOCS to discuss the Reportable
Events and any recommendations by Vibra-Te~h with respect to blasting
patterns or practices to minimize Reportable Events. It shall not be
presumed that a, change in blasting patterns or practices is necessary
merely because of such Reportable Events, but ifVibra- Tech reasonably
be1iQves that a change is necessary to prevent frequent Reportable Events,
it shall recommend such changes in blasting practices, as it deems
necessary. These recommendations shall be discussed at the meeting with
DOCS, and Martin Marietta shall be entitled to suggest changes or
modifications to the recommendations that would make them less onerous
or more acceptable, and Vibra-Tech shall consider Martin Marietta's
comments in that regard. Within ten (0) days after the meeting, however,
Vibra-Tech shall finalize its recommendation and Martin Marietta agrees
to implement such commercially reasonable recommendations as
expeditiously as is commercially practicable, given the nature of the
recommendations.
3. Martin Marietta further agrees to grant Vi bra.. Tech access to its records

detefmine that Martin Mariettais complying with the reporting obligations
with respect to Reportable Events contained herein. Any audit report by
Vibra- Tech shall report only whether Martin Marietta has complied with
its reporting obligations herein and, if it h<l;s not, the instances and manner
in which it has not complied, including the information and data required
to be'submitted'by Martin Marietta for any Reportable Event.
4. In January of each year or as soon thereafter as is reasoriably practical,
Vibra-Tech shall review Martin Marietta's blasting records and blasting
programs . for the prior year for the purpose of making such
recommendations as Vibra- Tech believes may reasonably be necessary to
reflect changes in the state of blasting technology that have become
commercially practicable. Martin Marietta agrees to consider the
recommended changes in good faith; and to implement those that do not
unreasonably interfere with its operations and are commercially
. practicable, but otherwise shall be under no obligation to implement them
so long as it has less than three Reportable Events during the previous
calendar year,
5
5. In the event Vibra- Tech is unable to serve in the capacity described
hereinabove, Martin Marietta shall propose to DOCS another nationally
-recognized engineer with experience in mining activities such as those
undertaken by Martin Marietta on the Real Estate. Such replacement shall
be reasonably acceptable to DOCS.
6. These specific blasting_conditicins in this Section II are intended to and do
constitute all of the commitments made by Martin Marietta with respect to
underground blasting and supersede all other provisions of these
conditions with respect to underground blasting_
III. Studies and Monitoring.

proposal and Martin Marietta shall pay the cost of such studies.
IV. Water Monitoring.
Martin Marietta will cooperate with the City Utilities Department (the "Department") in
the development of a water quality monitoring program acceptable to the Department to monitor
potential impacts from underground mining on the Real Estate. Martin Marietta recognizes that
this ,may require different or additional wens or monitoring protocols than those- currently called
for and agrees to' pay for. _ those tbat are made necessary by the mining .approved herein, as
determined in the Department's reasonable judgment. Martin Marietta recognizes that the
Department may wish to conduct additional monitoring at its own expense and agrees to
cooperate with the Department to permit such additional monitoring. Further, Martin Marietta
shall grant the Department access to the monitoring points, flow meters, and related areas at all
reasonable times, subject to compliance with MSHA regulations. The Department shall also
have access to monitoring locations on an as needed basis for emergency purposes.
