RECITALS A. The Levee District was formed on July 21, 1947. pursuant to an Order of the Circuit Court of St. Louis County, Missouri in a case styled In Re Monarch -Chesterfield Levee District, Cause Number 181323, having a boundary description as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. B. The Levee District maintains a system of levees and other structures to provide protection from flooding by the Missouri River and certain tributaries ("Levee System"). C. Pursuant to Chapters 245 and 246 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri ("Enabling AcP), the Levee District, through its Board of Supervisors, is authorized and empowered, inter alia, to construct and maintain drainage ditches, pumping stations, syphons and any other works and improvements deemed necessary to preserve and maintain the works in the Levee District. D. MSD was formed on February 9, 1954 pursuant to Section 30 Article VI of the Constitution of the State of Missouri and the Charter (Plan) of the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District approved by the voters in St. Louis City and St. Louis County, Missouri on February 9, 1954 and amended on November 7, 2000 and on June 5, 2012 ("Charter"), having a boundary description as set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto. E. The boundaries of the Levee District overlap or are included within the boundaries of MSD. F. Pursuant to the Charter, MSD has the power. inter alia, to have jurisdiction, control, possession and supervision to construct, operate and maintain a drainage system. MSD also has the power to approve, revise, or reject the plans and designs of all private or public stormwater facilities. No such facility shall be constructed or reconstructed without the approval of MSD and any such work shall be subject to the inspection and supervision of MSD. MSD also has the power to contract with other public agencies for the construction, use, or maintenance of stormwater facilities or for the performance of any service required by MSD. G. MSD and the Levee District are political subdivisions of the State of Missouri and, with due authorization and approval of the Board of Trustees of MSD in Ordinance No. 14597 adopted on January 12, 2017, and the Board of Supervisors of the Levee District by resolution approved at a meeting of the Board of Supervisors on September 8, 2016, enter into this Agreement under authority conferred by Section 70.220. RSMo (2006) and MSD's Charter, Section 3.020.7. 4 H. In addition to the Levee System, pursuant to statutory authority, the Levee District has responsibility for maintaining a system of public stormwater infrastructure that includes drainage ditches, pumping stations and other public stormwater infrastructure ("Stormwater System"). I. The Levee System and the Stormwater System function together to provide a system of' flood protection and stormwater management that is subject to regulation by local, state and federal agencies including the City of Chesterfield, Missouri, St. Louis County, Missouri, MSD, the Missouri State Emergency Management Agency, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the United States Army Corps of Engineers. J, As required by the agencies regulating the Levee District, the Levee District has adopted guidelines and polices relating to operation and maintenance of the Levee System and the Stormwater System (together, the Levee System and the Stormwater System shall be referred to herein and together shall mean the "MCLD System"). The Levee District is a governmental entity that is responsible for operations and maintenance of the entire MCLD System, including maintenance and operation of the pump stations serving the master conveyance ditches and the levees within the District; K. MSD historically has recognized the unique function of the Levee District in providing stormwater management within the boundaries of the Levee District and MSD historically has deferred to the Levee District or related entities in most aspects of stormwater management, including but not limited to design criteria and plan review. L. The cost to construct, operate and maintain a vast majority of the MCLD System has been paid by property owners within the Levee District boundaries. M. To fund its stormwater services, MSD currently collects an ad valorem property tax at the rate of $0.0197 per $100 assessed valuation for the purpose of providing stormwater regulatory services and an ad valorem property tax at the rate of $0.1000 per $100 assessed valuation for the purpose of operation and maintenance of the stormwater system. MSD is not currently imposing an impervious fee and is discontinuing its stormwater service charge of $0.24/$0.18 per month as of July I , 2016. N. Due to the unique nature of the Levee District's authority and responsibilities for flood control and stormwater management within the boundaries of the Levee District, the Levee District and MSD recognize that the Levee District is in a position to provide some stormwater services currently or planned to be provided by MSD within the Levee District boundaries. 0. Based upon the Levee District's ability to provide some stormwater services within the Levee District boundaries, the parties seek to reach an agreement for the Levee District to provide the Stormwater Services (as defined in Article 1, Section 1.1), and to reach an agreement for MSD to provide the MSD Services (as defined in Article I. Section 1.4). P. Property within the Levee District will be subject to MSD's ad valorem property tax of $0.0197 per $100 assessed valuation for MSD stormwater regulatory services.

However, MSD may establish a subdistrict in response to a petition by property owners solely within the Levee District as provided for in MSD's Charter (Plan)_ Q.

RECITALS A. The Levee District was formed on February 4, 2003, pursuant to an Order of the Circuit Court of St. Louis County, Missouri in a case styled In Re Missouri Bottoms Levee District — Bridgeton Subdistrict, Cause Number 03CC-000191, having a boundary description as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. B. The Levee District maintains a system of levees and other structures to provide protection from flooding by the Missouri River and certain tributaries ("Levee System"). C. Pursuant to Chapters 245 and 246 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri ("Enabling Act"), the Levee District, through its Board of Supervisors; is authorized and empowered, inter alia, to construct and maintain drainage ditches, pumping stations, syphons and any other works and improvements deemed necessary to preserve and maintain the works in the Levee District. D. MSD was formed on February 9, 1954 pursuant to Section 30 Article VI of the Constitution of the State of Missouri and the Charter (Plan) of the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District approved by the voters in St. Louis City and St. Louis County, Missouri on February 9, 1954 and amended on November 7, 2000 and on June 5. 2012 ("Charter"), having a boundary description as set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto. E. The boundaries of the Levee District overlap or are included within the boundaries of MSD. F. Pursuant to the Charter, MSD has the power, inter alia, to have jurisdiction, control, possession and supervision to construct, operate and maintain a drainage system. MSD also has the power to approve, revise, or reject the plans and designs of all private or public stormwater facilities. No such facility shall be constructed or reconstructed without the approval of MSD and any such work shall be subject to the inspection and supervision of MSD. MSD also has the power to contract with other public agencies for the construction, use, or maintenance of stormwater facilities or for the performance of any service required by MSD. G. MSD and the Levee District are political subdivisions of the State of Missouri and, with due authorization and approval of the Board of Trustees of MSD in Ordinance No. 14597 adopted on January 12, 2017, and the Board of Supervisors of the Levee District by resolution approved at a meeting of the Board of Supervisors on September 28, 2016, enter into this Agreement under authority conferred by Section 70.220, RSMo (2006) and MSD's Charter. Section 3.020.7. 4 H. In addition to the Levee System, pursuant to statutory authority, the Levee District has responsibility for maintaining a system of public stormwater infrastructure that includes drainage ditches, pumping stations and other public stormwater infrastructure ("Stortrnl•ater Svster"). [. The Levee System and the Stormwater System function together to provide a system of flood protection and stormwater management that is subject to regulation by local. state and federal agencies including the City of Bridgeton. Missouri, St. Louis County, Missouri, MSD, the Missouri State Emergency Management Agency, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the United States Army Corps of Engineers. J. As required by the agencies regulating the Levee District, the Levee District has adopted guidelines and polices relating to operation and maintenance of the Levee -System and the Stormwater System (together, the Levee System and the Stormwater System shall be referred to herein and together shall mean the "MELD System"). The Levee District is a governmental entity that is responsible for operations and maintenance of the entire MBLD System, including maintenance and operation of the pump stations serving the master conveyance ditches and the levees within the District; K. MSD historically has recognized the unique function of the Levee District in providing stormwater management within the boundaries of the Levee District and MSD historically has deferred to the Levee District or related entities in most aspects of stormwater management, including but not limited to design criteria and plan review. L. The cost to construct, operate and maintain a vast majority of the MBLD System has been paid by property owners within the Levee District boundaries. M.

MSD is not currently imposing an impervious fee and is discontinuing its stormwater service charge of $0.241$0.18 per month as of July 1, 2016. N. Due to the unique nature of the Levee District's authority and responsibilities for flood control and stormwater management within the boundaries of the Levee District, the Levee District and MSD recognize that the Levee District is in a position to provide some stormwater services currently or planned to be provided by MSD within the Levee District boundaries. 0. Based upon the Levee District's ability to provide some stormwater services within the Levee District boundaries, the parties seek to reach an agreement for the Levee District to provide the Stormwater Services (as defined in Article I, Section 1.1), and to reach an agreement for MSD to provide the MSD Services (as defined in Article I, Section 1.4). P. Property within the Levee District will be subject to MSD's ad valorem property tax of $0.0197 per $100 assessed valuation for MSD stormwater regulatory services.

However, MSD may establish a subdistrict in response to a petition by property owners solely within the Levee District as provided for in MSD's Charter (PIan). Q.

RECITALS A. The Levee District was formed on January 7, 1994, pursuant to an Order of the Circuit Court of St. Louis County, Missouri in a case styled In the Matter of: Earth City Levee District, Cause Number 655688. having a boundary description as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. B. The Levee District maintains a system of levees and other structures to provide protection from flooding by the Missouri River and certain tributaries ("Levee Svstem"). C. Pursuant to Chapters 245 and 246 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri ("Enabling Act.'), the Levee District, through its Board of Supervisors, is authorized and empowered, inter alia, to construct and maintain drainage ditches, pumping stations, syphons and any other works and improvements deemed necessary to preserve and maintain the works in the Levee District. D. MSD was formed on February 9, 1954 pursuant to Section 30 Article VI of the Constitution of the State of Missouri and the Charter (Plan) of the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District approved by the voters in St. Louis City and St. Louis County, Missouri on February 9, 1954 and amended on November 7, 2000 and on June 5, 2012 ("Charter"), having a boundary description as set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto. E. The boundaries of the Levee District overlap or are included within the boundaries of MSD. F. Pursuant to the Charter, MSD has the power, inter alia, to have jurisdiction, control, possession and supervision to construct, operate and maintain a drainage system. MSD also has the power to approve, revise, or reject the plans and designs of all private or public stormwater facilities. No such facility shall be constructed or reconstructed without the approval of MSD and any such work shall be subject to the inspection and supervision of MSD. MSD also has the power to contract with other public agencies for the construction, use, or maintenance of stormwater facilities or for the performance of any service required by MSD. G. MSD and the Levee District are political subdivisions of the State of Missouri and, with due authorization and approval of the Board of Trustees of MSD in Ordinance No. adopted on , and the Board of Supervisors of the Levee District by resolution approved at a meeting of the Board of Supervisors on December 13, 2016, enter into this Agreement under authority conferred by Section 70.220. RSMo (2006) and MSD's Charter, Section 3.020.7. 4 H. In addition to the Levee System, pursuant to statutory authority, the Levee District has responsibility for maintaining a system of public stormwater infrastructure that includes drainage ditches, pumping stations and other public stormwater infrastructure ("Stormwater System"). 1. The Levee System and the Stormwater System function together to provide a system of flood protection and stormwater management that is subject to regulation by local, state and federal agencies including the City of Bridgeton. Missouri, St. Louis County. Missouri, MSD, the Missouri State Emergency Management Agency. the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the United States Army Corps of Engineers. J. As required by the agencies regulating the Levee District, the Levee District has adopted guidelines and polices relating to operation and maintenance of the Levee System and the Stormwater System (together, the Levee System and the Stormwater System shall be referred to herein and together shall mean the "ECLD System"). The Levee District is a governmental entity that is responsible for operations and maintenance of the entire ECLD System, including maintenance and operation of the pump stations serving the master conveyance ditches and the levees within the District; K. MSD historically has recognized the unique function of the Levee District in providing stormwater management within the boundaries of the Levee District and MSD historically has deferred to the Levee District or related entities in most aspects of stormwater management, including but not limited to design criteria and plan review. L. The cost to construct, operate and maintain a vast majority of the ECLD System has been paid by third parties and property owners within the Levee District boundaries. M. To fund its stormwater services, MSD currently collects an ad valorem property tax at the rate of $0.0197 per $I00 assessed valuation for the purpose of providing stormwater regulatory services and an ad valorem property tax at the rate of $0.1000 per $100 assessed valuation for the purpose of operation and maintenance of the stormwater system. MSD is not currently imposing an impervious fee and is discontinuing its stormwater service charge of $0.24/$0.I 8 per month as of July 1, 2016. N. Due to the unique nature of the Levee District's authority and responsibilities for flood control and stormwater management within the boundaries of the Levee District, the Levee District and MSD recognize that the Levee District is in a position to provide some stormwater services currently or planned to be provided by MSD within the Levee District boundaries. 0. Based upon the Levee District's ability to provide some stormwater services within the Levee District boundaries, the parties seek to reach an agreement for the Levee District to provide the Stormwater Services (as defined in Article I, Section 1.1), and to reach an agreement for MSD to provide the MSD Services (as defined in Article I, Section 1.4). P. Property within the Levee District will be subject to MSD's ad valorem property tax of $0.0197 per $100 assessed valuation for MSD stormwater regulatory services. Based upon the Levee District's ability to provide Stormwater Services (as defined in Article 1, Sectionl .1) within the Levee District boundaries, MSD shall not collect the proposed Stormwater 5 ad valorem property tax of $0.1000 per $100 assessed valuation from property within the Levee District boundaries for the Stormwater Services performed by the Levee District. However, MSD may establish a subdistrict in response to a petition by property owners solely within the Levee District as provided for in MSD's Charter (Plan). Q. Subject to the termination provisions herein, the effective date of this Agreement shall be March 3I, 2017 ("Effective Date"). Now, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and promises set forth herein, the adequacy and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: ARTICLE I Stormwater Management Agreement and Billing Section 1.1 Stormwater Services to be provided by the Levee District. Within the Levee District boundaries, the Levee District will provide the following services, to be included. referred to herein, and defined as "Stornnvater Services:" A.

Permitting of all stormwater facilities; E. Construction inspection of all Public Storm Sewers; F. As -built survey review, processing, and records retention associated with Public Storm Sewers; G. Delivery of the as -built survey drawings to MSD for mapping as projects, public or private, are accepted by the Levee District; H. Participation in Missouri One -Call; I. Maintenance and operation of "master" stormwater conveyance ditches; J. Oversight of (i) maintenance and (ii) operation of private detention and retention basins, or the enforcement thereof.

RECITALS A. The Levee District was formed on July 27, 1987, pursuant to Decree of the Circuit Court of St. Louis County, Missouri, in a case styled In the Matter of: Howard Bend Levee District, Cause Number 561294, having a boundary description as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. R. The Levee District maintains a system of levees and other structures to provide protection from flooding by the Missouri River and certain tributaries ("Levee System"). C. Pursuant to Chapters 245 and 246 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri ("Enabling Act"). the Levee District, through its Board of Supervisors, is authorized and empowered, inter alia, to construct and maintain drainage ditches, pumping stations, syphons and any other works and improvements deemed necessary to preserve and maintain the works in the Levee District. D. MSD was formed on February 9, 1954 pursuant to Section 30 Article VI of the Constitution of the State of Missouri and the Charter (Plan) of the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District approved by the voters in St. Louis City and St. Louis County, Missouri on February 9, 1954 and amended on November 7, 2000 and on June 5, 2012 ("Charter"), having a boundary description as set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto. E. The boundaries of the Levee District overlap or are included within the boundaries of MSD. F. Pursuant to the Charter, MSD has the power, inter alia, to have jurisdiction, control, possession and supervision to construct, operate and maintain a drainage system. MSD also has the power to approve, revise, or reject the plans and designs of all private or public stormwater facilities. No such facility shall be constructed or reconstructed without the approval of MSD and any such work shall be subject to the inspection and supervision of MSD. MSD also has the power to contract with other public agencies for the construction, use, or maintenance of stormwater facilities or for the performance of any service required by MSD. G. MSD and the Levee District are political subdivisions of the State of Missouri and, with due authorization and approval of the Board of Trustees of MSD in Ordinance No. 14597 adopted on January 12, 2017, and the Board of Supervisors of the Levee District by resolution approved at a meeting of the Board of Supervisors on September 13, 2016, enter into this Agreement under authority conferred by Section 70.220. RSMo (2006) and MSD's Charter, Section 3.020.7. 4 H. In addition to the Levee System, pursuant to statutory authority, the Levee District has responsibility for maintaining a system of public stormwater infrastructure that includes drainage ditches, pumping stations and other public stormwater infrastructure ("Stormwater System"). 1. The Levee System and the Stormwater System function together to provide a system of flood protection and stormwater management that is subject to regulation by local, state and federal agencies including the City of Chesterfield, Missouri, the City of Maryland Heights, Missouri, St. Louis County, Missouri, MSD, the Missouri State Emergency Management Agency, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the United States Army Corps of Engineers. J. As required by the agencies regulating the Levee District, the Levee District has adopted guidelines and polices relating to operation and maintenance of the Levee System and the Stormwater System (together, the Levee System and the Stormwater System shall be referred to herein and together shall mean the "HBLD System"). The Levee District is a governmental entity that is responsible for operations and maintenance of the entire HBLD System, including maintenance and operation of the pump stations serving the master conveyance ditches and the levees within the District; K. MSD historically has recognized the unique function of the Levee District in providing stormwater management within the boundaries of the Levee District and MSD historically has deferred to the Levee District or related entities in most aspects of stormwater management, including but not limited to design criteria and plan review. L. The cost to construct, operate and maintain a vast majority of the HBLD System has been paid by property owners within the Levee District boundaries. M. To fund its stormwater services. MSD currently collects an ad valorem property tax at the rate of $0.0197 per $100 assessed valuation for the purpose of providing stormwater regulatory services and an ad valorem property tax at the rate of $0.1000 per $100 assessed valuation for the purpose of operation and maintenance of the stormwater system. MSD is not currently imposing an impervious fee and is discontinuing its stormwater service charge of $0.24/$0.18 per month as of July 1, 2016. N. Due to the unique nature of the Levee District's authority and responsibilities for flood control and stormwater management within the boundaries of the Levee District, the Levee District and MSD recognize that the Levee District is in a position to provide some stormwater services currently or planned to be provided by MSD within the Levee District boundaries. 0. Based upon the Levee District's ability to provide some stormwater services within the Levee District boundaries, the parties seek to reach an agreement for the Levee District to provide the Stormwater Services (as defined in Article 1, Section 1.1), and to reach an agreement for MSD to provide the MSD Services (as defined in Article 1, Section 1.4). P. Property within the Levee District will be subject to MSD's ad valorem property tax of $0.0197 per $100 assessed valuation for MSD stormwater regulatory services. Based upon the Levee District's ability to provide Stormwater Services (as defined in Article 1, 5 Sectionl.1) within the Levee District boundaries, MSD shall not collect the proposed Stormwater ad valorem property tax of $0.I000 per $100 assessed valuation from property within the Levee District boundaries for the Stormwater Services performed by the Levee District. However, MSD may establish a subdistrict in response to a petition by property owners solely within the Levee District as provided for in MSD's Charter (Plan). Q.

In addition to the Levee System, pursuant to statutory authority, the Levee District has responsibility for maintaining a system of public stormwater infrastructure that includes drainage ditches, pumping stations and other public stormwater infrastructure ("Stormwater System"). 1. The Levee System and the Stormwater System function together to provide a system of flood protection and stormwater management that is subject to regulation by local, state and federal agencies including the City of Maryland Heights, Missouri, St. Louis County, Missouri, MSD, the Missouri State Emergency Management Agency; the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the United States Army Corps of Engineers. J. As required by the agencies regulating the Levee District, the Levee District has adopted guidelines and polices relating to operation and maintenance of the Levee System and the Stormwater System (together, the Levee System and the Stormwater System shall be referred to herein and together shall mean the "RLD System"). The Levee District is a governmental entity that is responsible for operations and maintenance of the entire RLD System, including maintenance and operation of the pump stations serving the master conveyance ditches and the levees within the District; K. MSD historically has recognized•the unique function of the Levee District in providing stormwater management within the boundaries of the Levee District and MSD historically has deferred to the Levee District or related entities in most aspects of stormwater management, including but not limited to design criteria and plan review. L. The cost to construct, operate and maintain a vast majority of the RLD System has been paid by property owners within the Levee District boundaries. M, To fund its stormwater services, MSD currently collects an ad valorem property tax at the rate of $0.0197 per $100 assessed valuation for the purpose of providing stormwater regulatory services and an ad valorem property tax at the rate of $0.1000 per $100 assessed valuation for the purpose of operation and maintenance of the stormwater system. MSD is not currently imposing an impervious fee and is discontinuing its stormwater service charge of $0.24!$0.18 per month as of July I, 2016. N. Due to the unique nature of the Levee District's authority and responsibilities for flood control and stormwater management within the boundaries of the Levee District, the Levee District and MSD recognize that the Levee District is in a position to provide some stormwater services currently or planned to be provided by MSD within the Levee District boundaries. 0. Based upon the Levee District's ability to provide some stormwater services within the Levee District boundaries, the parties seek to reach an agreement for the Levee District to provide the Stormwater Services (as defined in Article I, Section 1.1), and to reach an agreement for MSD to provide the MSD Services (as defined in Article I, Section 1.4). P. Property within the Levee District will be subject to MSD's ad valorem property tax of $0.0197 per $100 assessed valuation for MSD stormwater regulatory services. Based upon the Levee District's ability to provide Stormwater Services (as defined in Article 1, Sectionl.1) within the Levee District boundaries, MSD shall not collect the proposed Stormwater 5 ad valorem property tax of $0.1000 per $100 assessed valuation from property within the Levee District boundaries for the Stormwater Services performed by the Levee District. However, MSD may establish a subdistrict in response to a petition by property owners solely within the Levee District as provided for in MSD's Charter (Plan). Q.
