Before LOKEN, GRUENDER, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________

PER CURIAM.

      Federal inmate Rodney Brown appeals the district court’s1 dismissal of his pro
se motion for a sentence reduction pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). Upon careful

      1
       The Honorable Brian S. Miller, Chief Judge, United States District Court for
the Eastern District of Arkansas.
de novo review, see United States v. Long, 757 F.3d 762, 763 (8th Cir. 2014)
(standard of review), we conclude that dismissal was proper because Brown was
sentenced based on a binding plea agreement that included a base offense level and
drug quantity, but did not include a criminal history level or Guidelines range, and
thus was not expressly based on a Guidelines range that was subsequently lowered
by the Sentencing Commission, see Freeman v. United States, 131 S. Ct. 2685,
2695-700 (2011) (Sotomayor, J., concurring); Long, 757 F.3d at 764.

      Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                     ______________________________
