The Managers, by resolution, may designate from among the Managers one or more committees, each of which shall be comprised of one or more of the Managers, and may designate one or more of the Managers as alternate members of any committee, who may, subject to any limitations imposed by the Managers, replace absent or disqualified Managers at any meeting of that committee. Any such committee shall have and may exercise all of the authority of the Managers, subject to the limitations set out in Section 101.253 of the Act and the provisions of this Agreement. 9.8 Delegation. The Managers may from time to time delegate specific authorities and responsibilities to one or more Managers who, pursuant to such delegations, will have the power to exercise such responsibilities and the obligation to fulfill such responsibilities without the joinder or consent of the other Managers. 9.9 Officers. The Managers may create and abolish from time to time one or more offices, including that of President, Vice President, Treasurer or Secretary, delegate to such an office any authorities and responsibilities deemed advisable, and appoint and remove, with or without cause, any person as the holder of such an office. 9.10 Meetings of Members. Members holding at least an aggregate twenty percent (20%) of all Interests, or any Manager, may call a meeting of the Members. The meeting shall be held not less than ten (10) nor more than fifty (50) days after the date of written notice thereof, at such place in or outside of Texas as the notice shall specify. The notice shall describe the matters to be considered at the meeting, and no matter other than those described in the notice may be taken up at the meeting, Members holding a Majority in Interest of the Members shall constitute a quorum. Any Member attending the meeting shall be deemed to have waived notice thereof unless he is attending for the exclusive purpose of objecting to the validity of the meeting. Any Member, whether or not attending, may waive notice by the execution of a written waiver. If all Members waive notice, a meeting shall be valid even though proper or timely notice thereof may not have been given, and any matter may be considered at such a meeting whether or not described in the notice of the meeting. 9.11 Action Without Meetings. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Members, Managers, or any committee may be taken without a meeting without prior notice, and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the required majority of the Members, Managers, or committee members, as the case may be.

Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement, whenever a matter is to be voted on or consented to by the Members other than at a meeting of the Members, a Member shall have ten (10) days after receiving notice to respond to the matter in question. If a Member does not respond within the ten (10) day period, he will be deemed to have waived his right to vote on or consent to such matters. Approval or disapproval of the matter in question will then be determined by the 15 necessary percentage of Members voting or expressing their consent or lack of consent regarding the matter, ARTICLE X ADMISSION OF MEMBERS; TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS; WITHDRAWAL OF A MEMBER 10.1 Transfers of Membership Interests by Members. (a) In General. Without the written consent of all Members, the transfer of all or any part of an Interest shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Article. A permitted transfer shall be effective as of the date specified in the instruments relating to the transfer of the Interest unless this Agreement requires a different date. The Interest of any transferee shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement even if such transferee does not become a Member, and the Company may disregard any transfer until it shall have received the transferee's written acknowledgment that it shall hold the transferred Interest subject to all provisions of this Agreement. (b) Right of First Refusal on Sale. (1) Notice of Sale. If a person desires to sell any Interest to any person or entity who is not a permitted transferee (as defined in the Paragraph entitled "Transfer to Permitted Transferee"), he must give written notice to the Company describing all the terms of that sale (including the Interest to be sold, the purchase price, the terms for payment, the closing date, any conditions to the sale, and the fair market value of any consideration to be given in the form of property), and completely identifying the proposed ultimate purchaser. (2) Options to Purchase. The Company will have a first option to purchase all or some of the Interest described in the seller's notice, and may exercise that option at any time within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the seller's notice by giving written notice to the seller and each other Member of the portion of the Interest it has elected to purchase. Each of the other Members will have a second option to purchase his proportionate portion of any remaining portion of the Interest described in the seller's notice and may exercise his option at any time within fifteen (15) days of the expiration of the Company's option period by giving written notice to the seller of the portion of the Interest he has elected to purchase. If the Company and the other Members in the aggregate elect to purchase less than all of the Interest described in the seller's notice, then none of those options may be exercised. If the Company and the other Members elect to purchase in the aggregate all of the Interest described in the seller's notice, then the Company and those Members who have elected to purchase (subject to any conditions stated in the seller's notice) will become bound to purchase, and the seller will become bound to sell, that entire Interest to the Company and electing Members in the proportions specified in the exercise notices. Each such purchaser will pay a pro rata share of the purchase price as described in the seller's notice, to be paid on the same terms as described in the Seller's notice, except that in lieu of any m consideration which is other than cash or notes, the purchaser will pay cash equal to the value of that consideration. If more than one purchaser is required to give a note in payment of any portion of the purchase price, each such note shall be independent and free of any cross default provision, and if security is required for such a note by the term of the Seller's notice, the security given for one such note shall not secure the payment of any other such note. The closing of any purchases by the Company or other Members will take place on the later of: (a) the closing date specified in the seller's notice, or (b) ten (10) days after the expiration of the second option period. If the options under the provisions of this Subparagraph are not exercised the proposed sale may take place. However, the Company will have the right to examine, within the thirty (30) days following the closing date described in the seller's notice, the records of the seller and the purchaser to satisfy itself that the sale has been consummated on the terms described in the seller's notice. If the sale is not consummated on those terms and within the time specified in the seller's notice, the Company may cancel on its books any transfer of Interest previously made to reflect that sale. 10,2 Options on Death. (a) Upon the death of any person owning any Interest in the Company, the decedent's Interest (and, if the decedent's spouse is not a Member, the surviving spouse's marital property interest in the Interest) will be subject to the following restrictions. These restrictions shall also apply to any Interest over which the decedent held a testamentary power of appointment. Any Interest which would pass, by the terms of the decedent's will (or by intestate devolution, if applicable, or by any instrument the applicable provisions of which take effect at death), or by the terms on which the power of appointment was exercised to a permitted transferee (as defined in the Paragraph entitled "Transfer to Permitted Transferee") may pass to such person or entity without restriction. Any Interest which would not pass to such a person or entity will be subject to the following restrictions: (1) If the decedent is survived by a spouse who is a Member, that spouse will have a first option to purchase all or a portion of the Interest. (7) If the decedent is not survived by such spouse, the Company will have a first option to purchase all or a portion of the Interest. If the surviving spouse has a first option, the Company will have a second option to purchase all or a portion of the remaining Interest, (3) The other Members will have a final option to purchase all or a portion of the remaining Interest. (b) These options may be exercised as set out in the Paragraph entitled "Exercise of Options," and for that purpose the first option period will begin on the date of the decedent's death and will end two hundred (200) days thereafter. 10.3 Options on Divorce. 17 (a) Upon the expiration of all periods for, or waiver of, appeal of any decree of divorce or annulment which awards any Interest in shares to any person who was not already a Member, the Interest so awarded will be subject to the following options: (1) If the person from whom the subject Interest was awarded was a Member, that person will have a first option to purchase all or a portion of the subject Interest. If the person from whom the subject Interest was awarded was not a Member, the spouse who is a Member will have a first option to purchase all or a portion of the subject Interest. (2) The Company will have a second option to purchase all or a portion of the remaining subject Interest. (3) The other Members will have a final option to purchase all or a portion of the remaining subject Interest. (b) These options may be exercised as set out in the Paragraph entitled "Exercise of Options," and for that purpose the first option period will begin on the date on which all periods for appeal expire and will end thirty (30) days thereafter. 10.4 Options on Distributions from 'Trust. (a) If any Interest is distributed by a trust to any person or entity who is not a permitted transferee (as defined in the Paragraph entitled "Transfer to Permitted Transferee"), the Interest so distributed will be subject to the following options: (1) The Company will have a first option to purchase all or any portion of the interest. (2) The other Members will have a second option to purchase all or any portion of the remaining Interest. (b) These options may be exercised as set out in the Paragraph entitled "Exercise of Options," and for that purpose the first option period will begin on the date of distribution and will end sixty (60) days thereafter. 10.5 Options on Involuntary Transfers. (a) If any Interest passes to any person other than a Member as a result of attachment, garnishment, execution, levy, seizure, foreclosure of (or transfer pursuant to) a pledge or other security or collateral interest, receivership, or other involuntary means of any kind, whether or not judicial, or as a result of a receivership or bankruptcy proceeding whether or not voluntary, the Interest so passing will be subject to the following options: (1) The Company will have a first option to purchase all or any portion of the Interest. (2) The other Members will have a second option to purchase all or any portion of the remaining Interest. 18 (b) These options may be exercised as set out in the Paragraph entitled "Exercise of Options," and for that purpose the first option period will begin on the date of transfer and will end one hundred and eighty (180) days thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the provisions of the Paragraph entitled "Exercise of Options," the price at which any Interest may be redeemed or purchased in connection with any involuntary transfer shall not exceed the amount which will discharge the subject indebtedness. 10.6 Exercise of Options. (a) Option Period. The option period for any first option arising under this Article (except the Paragraph entitled "Transfers of Membership Interests by Members") will be the period specified for it above. However, the commencement of any first option period will be postponed from day to day until the Company and the optionee of that first option become aware of the event which created the option. The duration of the first option period will also be extended, day to day, as necessary until the purchase price has been determined under Exhibit "B" to this Agreement. The option period for any second option will be twenty (20) days long and will begin the day following the expiration of the first option period, The option period for any third option will be twenty (20) days long and will begin the day following the expiration of the second option period. (b) Method of Exercise. Any option under this Article (except the Paragraph entitled "Transfers of Membership Interests by Members") may be exercised only by written notice given within the applicable option period to the Manager as set forth in the Paragraph entitled "Notices" and to the person whose Interest is subject to that option. (c) Option Price. The price at which an Interest will be bought or sold pursuant to an option arising under this Article (except the Paragraph entitled "Transfers of Membership Interests by Members") will be determined as provided in Exhibit "B" hereto. Closing of that purchase or sale will take place on the later of the 15th day following the expiration of the last option period for all options to purchase or sell ur un the 15th day following the date on which the purchase price has been determined pursuant to Exhibit `B". At closing, each purchaser will pay the purchase price of the Interest purchased by him as follows: (1) Ten percent (10%) will be paid in cash. (2) The balance of the purchase price will be paid by the execution and delivery of the purchaser's promissory note, secured by a security interest of the Interest being purchased evidenced by a Security Agreement in the form set out in Exhibit "C" hereto, earning interest at a rate equal to the then "applicable federal rate" under Section 1274 of the Internal Revenue Code, principal and accrued interest payable in sixty (60) equal blended monthly installments. (d) Delivery of Title. At the closing of any sale pursuant to an option under this Article, the seller will deliver to the purchasers such documentation as the Company may reasonably require evidencing the transfer. An Interest will be sold free and clear of all liens and encumbrances whatsoever. (e) Proportionate Purchases by Other Members. Each Member having the right to exercise an option to purchase an interest has the right to purchase his proportionate part 19 of the Interest which is subject to that option, net of any portion of that Interest_ which the Company may have elected to purchase. An electing Member's exercise notice which attempts to exercise an option for a greater proportionate part of the Interest than that to which he is entitled will be automatically reduced to the maximum proportionate part of the Interest to which he is entitled. For this purpose each Member's proportionate part is a fraction of the Interest which is subject to that option (net of any portion being purchased by the Company), the numerator of which is the Interest of that Member and denominator of which is the total Interests of all Members exercising that option. (f) Voting of Interests in Favor or Against Company Purchases. If the vote or consent of the Company's Members should ever be required in order to authorize the Company to purchase any Interest pursuant to an option given by this Agreement, the holder of the Interest which is subject to that option will vote in favor or against the purchase as is consistent with the votes cast by a Majority in Interest of all other Members. (g) Consent of Spouse. This Agreement restricts the freedom of a person's spouse to dispose of his or her interest in the Interest owned by such person. Additionally, when an option to purchase an Interest arises under this Agreement, that option will extend to any marital property interest in that Interest. The spouses of the undersigned Members have signed this Agreement, acknowledging that they have read and understand it, and agree to be bound by its terms. However, nothing in this Agreement shall ever be construed to convert or attempt to convert into community property the separate property character of any Interest which constitutes a person's separate property. 10.7 Transfer to Permitted Transferee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Person may assign an Interest in the Company to a permitted transferee. For purposes of this Article, "permitted transferee" shall mean: (a) Each existing Member who is a party to this Agreement; (b) A person who is a descendent of WAYNE A. WILDMAN and DIANNA K. WILDMAN; (c) A trustee of any trust which, at the applicable time, is more than seventy- five percent (75%) actuarially held for permitted transferees, as subsequently defined; (d) Any corporation in which, at the applicable time, each class of stock is wholly (100%) owned by a permitted transferee or permitted transferees, ignoring any community property interest of any spouse in such stock; (e) Any partnership in which, at the applicable time, each class of partnership interests is wholly (100%) owned by a permitted transferee or permitted transferees, ignoring any community property interest of any spouse in such partnership interest; (f) Any limited liability company or other form of incorporated or unincorporated business organization in which each class of stock, membership, or other equity interest is wholly (100%) owned by a permitted transferee or permitted transferees, ignoring any community property interest of any spouse in such equity interest; and 20 (g) Any charity which would qualify for an estate or gift tax charitable deduction under Section 2055 or 2522 of the Code. 10.8 Actuarially Held for Permitted Transferees. In determining if a trust is more than seventy-five percent (75%) actuarially held for permitted transferees, the following shall apply, (a) A trust, at the applicable time, is more than seventy-five percent (75%) actuarially held for permitted transferees when more than seventy-five percent (75%) of the actuarial value of the beneficial interests of the trust which are not to be ignored pursuant to Subparagraphs (b), (c), and (d) below (the "Relevant Interests") are held for a permitted transferee or permitted transferees. The actuarial value of the Relevant Interests will be more than seventy-five percent (75%) held for a permitted transferee or permitted transferees, at the applicable time, if the value of the Relevant Interests which are held for a permitted transferee or permitted transferees have a value more than three times those Relevant Interest not so held. For purposes of making that comparison, those Relevant Interests held for permitted transferees shall be aggregated and those Relevant Interests not so held shall be aggregated, and both Relevant Interests so aggregated shall be valued as they would be valued under Section 2512 (a) of the Code if those aggregated interests could be assigned and were then assigned. (b) For purposes of making that determination, the beneficial interest of a spouse of a permitted transferee, which is not created pursuant to or as the result of a divorce, shall be ignored. A spouse of a permitted transferee shall be any person who is then lawfully married to a permitted transferee, or was married to a permitted transferee at that permitted transferee's death. (c) For purposes of making that determination, the beneficial interest of a charity or charities under a trust shall be ignored. A charity, for purposes of this Subparagraph, is an organization which would qualify for a charitable deduction under Section 2522 of the Code, if a gift was made to that organization. (d) For purposes of making that determination, the possibility that an interest in a trust may be appointed pursuant to a special or general power of appointment shall be ignored; provided, that the actual exercise of any such power of appointment may constitute a transfer, (e) The Manager is empowered (but not required) to certify whether any trust is more than seventy-five percent (75%) actuarially held for permitted transferees, if such certification is requested by a trustee of that trust. All Persons dealing with a Trustee of a trust after that Trustee receives that certification are entitled to rely upon that certification. The Manager may act (or not act) in his discretion and shall be liable only for fraud or acts or omissions in bad faith. Any failure of the Manager to so act does not prevent the Company from claiming that any such trust is or is not more than seventy-five percent (75%) actuarially held for permitted transferees. 10.9 Prohibited Transfers. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no voluntary transfer of an Interest in the Company may be made if such transfer would result in a termination of the Company for federal tax purposes pursuant to Section 708 of the Code, adversely affect the classification of the Company as a partnership for tax purposes, or violate 21 any applicable provision of federal or state securities laws, and any attempt to do so shall be null and void. 10.10 Might of 'Transferee to Become a Member. No transferee of all or part of a Member's Interest shall have the right to become a Member without the unanimous consent of the Members. Until the transferee is admitted as a Member, no Member or other person may cast a vote with respect to the transferred Interest, and that Interest will be entirely disregarded for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum or the validity of any action of the Members. Any person or entity becoming a substituted Member shall pay the reasonable costs of such substitution plus the reasonable costs and expenses the Company may incur in connection with any federal income tax election made by the Company that benefits such substituted Member. 10.11 Withdrawal of a Member. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member shall have the right (by statute or otherwise) to have his Interest redeemed or repurchased upon his withdrawal. (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement with respect to the transfer of an interest, no Member may withdraw from membership in the Company prior to the dissolution and winding up of the Company without the consent of the Manager and all other Members. If consent is given, the withdrawal shall be on such terms and conditions as the Manager may deem appropriate in his sole discretion. 10.12 Redemption of Withdrawing Member's Interest if Company Not Wound Up. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 101.205 of the Act, if a Member withdraws and an event requiring a winding up pursuant to the Paragraph entitled "Causes of Dissolution" does not occur within sixty (60) days after the date of withdrawal, then the Interest of the withdrawing Member may be redeemed by the Company as of the date of withdrawal as described in this Paragraph, which shall also be considered the "date of closing" as used in Exhibit "B" attached hereto. (a) The withdrawing Member will be entitled to be indemnified by the Company against all liability to Company creditors for Company obligations and to have the net fair market value of his Interest, less his Member Obligation, together with interest thereon at either (1) the "Prime Rate" published from time to time by The Wall Street Journal plus one percent per annum or (2) such higher rate as may then be the "applicable federal rate" under Section 1274 of the Code, paid to him in sixty (60) equal monthly installments of principal and interest. If a Member's Obligation exceeds the amount payable to him for his Interest, he shall remit the net amount of his Member Obligation in accordance with its terns, and no amount shall be payable to him. (b) If an event occurs within sixty (60) days of the withdrawal that requires a winding up of the Company, then any redemption which the Company has elected to make as to that withdrawal shall be rescinded and the withdrawing Member shall be deemed to have continued to be a Member through the winding up. 22 10.13 Distribution in Liquidation of a Member's Interest. If the Interest of a Member is liquidated (other than by a purchase by another Member or the Company) any distribution to that Member shall be made in an amount equal to the positive balance of that Member's Capital Account, after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all periods including the year during which such liquidation occurs, in compliance with Treas. Reg. §1.704- 1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2). If that Member's Capital Account has a deficit balance (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all periods, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), and if that Member has an obligation under this Agreement to restore any negative balance in his Capital Account, that Member shall contribute to the capital of the Company the amount necessary to restore such deficit balance to zero in compliance with Treas. Reg. §1.704- 1 (b)(2)(ii)(b)(3). Such deficit restoration obligation on the part of the Member shall be considered to be a debt to only the Company and to no other party. A Member shall also remain liable for any other Member Obligation he may have to the Company, and the Company may offset any distribution due to a Member against any such Member Obligation. If a Member's Obligation exceeds the amount payable to him for his Interest, he shall remit the net amount of his Member Obligation in accordance with its terms, and no amount shall be payable to him. ARTICLE XI DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION 11.1 Causes of Dissolution, The Company shall be dissolved upon the earliest to occur of the following: (a) Entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 11.314 of the Act; or (b) The unanimous agreement of the Members that the Company should be dissolved. The death, expulsion, withdrawal, bankruptcy, or dissolution of a Member or the occurrence of any other event which terminates the continued membership of a Member shall not cause the dissolution of the Company. 11.2 Winding Up. Upon the dissolution of the Company, unless the business of the Company is continued as provided in this Agreement, the Company shall continue solely for the purposes of winding up its affairs in an urderly manner, liquidating its assets, and satisfying the claims of its creditors and Members. No Member shall take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, the winding up of the Company's business and affairs. Each member shall repay any Member Obligation which he owes the Company, and the Manager is authorized to employ all legal remedies for the collection of such monies. The Manager (or, in the event there is no remaining Manager, any person elected by a Majority in Interest of the Members) shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up of the Company and shall take full account of the Company's liabilities and property. The Company property shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof, and the proceeds therefrom, to the extent sufficient therefor, shall be applied and distributed in the following order; 23 (a) First, to the payment and discharge of all of the Company's debts and liabilities to creditors other than the Members; (b) Second, to the payment and discharge of all of the Company's debts and liabilities to the Members; and (c) Thereafter, the balance, if any, to the Members in proportion of the positive balances of their Capital Accounts, after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all periods. In the discretion of the Manager, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Members pursuant to this Article may be distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the Members for the purposes of liquidating Company assets, collecting amounts owed to the Company, and paying any contested, contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company arising out of or in connection with the Company. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the Members, from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the Manager, in the same proportions as the amount distributed to such trust by the Company would otherwise have been distributed among the Members pursuant to this Agreement. 11.3 No Additional Compensation, No Manager shall receive any additional compensation for any services performed pursuant to this Article. 11.4 Compliance with Timing Requirements of Regulations. In the event the Company is "liquidated" within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), then: (1) distributions shall be made pursuant to this Article to the Members who have positive Capital Accounts in compliance with Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2); and (2) if any Member's Capital Account has a deficit balance (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), and if that Member has an obligation under this Agreement to restore any negative balance iii his Capital Account, that Member shall contribute to the capital of the Company so much of the Capital Contribution due from him as is necessary to restore such deficit balance to zero in compliance with Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(b)(3), Such deficit restoration obligation on the part of the Member shall be considered to be a debt to only the Company and to no other party and it shall be incurred by the Member upon liquidation as provided herein. A Member shall also remain liable for any other Member Obligation he may have to the Company, and the Company may offset any distribution due to a MemLur against such Member Obligation. If a Member's Obligation exceeds the amount payable to him for his Interest, then he shall remit the net amount of his Member Obligation in accordance with its terms, and no amount shall be payable to him. 11.5 Conscauences of Tax Termination. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, in the event the Company is liquidated within the meaning of Treas.

Instead, the Company shall be deemed to have distributed its property in kind to the Members, who shall be deemed to have assumed and taken subject to all Company liabilities, all in 24 accordance with their respective Capital Accounts; and immediately thereafter, the Members shall be deemed to have recontributed that same property in kind to the Company, which shall be deemed to have assumed and taken subject to all such liabilities. 11.6 Rights of Member. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for the return of his Capital Contribution and shall have no right or power to demand or receive property other than cash from the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member shall have priority over any other Member as to the return of his Capital Contributions, distributions, or allocations.

The Members and Manager acknowledge that they may receive information regarding the Company in the nature of trade secrets or that otherwise is confidential. They acknowledge that the release of this information may be damaging to the Company or persons with which it does business. Each Member and Manager will hold in strict confidence any information in receives regarding the Company that is identified as being confidential (and if that information is provided in writing that is so marked).

No Member or Manager may disclose confidential information to any person other than another Member or Manager, except the following disclosures: (1) those compelled by law, but the Member or Manager must notify the Manager or seventy-five percent (75%) in Interest of the Members, as appropriate, promptly of any request for that information, before disclosing it, if applicable; (2) those to advisors or representatives of the Member, Manager, or assignees of the Members or Manager, but only if they have agreed to be bound by this Paragraph's provisions; and (3) those of information the Member or Manager also has received from a source independent of the Company that the Member or Manager reasonably believes obtained that information without breaching any confidentiality obligation. ARTICLE XIII ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE. RESOI,IJ'1'I()N ("A1)lt" ); BINDING A1031TIZATION 13.1 Agreement to Use Procedure, The Members and Manager have entered into this Agreement in good faith and in the belief that it is mutually advantageous to them. It is with that same spirit of cooperation that they pledge to attempt to resolve any dispute amicably without the necessity of litigation. Accordingly, they agree if any dispute arises between them relating to this Agreement (the "Dispute"), they will first utilize the procedures specified in this Article (the "Procedure") before any Additional Proceedings. 25 13.2 1 Initiation of Procedure. The Member or Manager seeking to initiate the Procedure (the "Initiating Member or Manager") will give written notice to the other Members and. Manager. The notice must describe in general terms the nature of the Dispute and the Initiating Member or Manager's claim for relief. Additionally, the notice must identify one or more individuals with authority to settle the Dispute on the Member or Manager's behalf. The Member or Manager receiving the notice (the "Responding Member or Manager," whether one or more) will have five business days within which to designate by written notice to the Initiating Member or Manager, one or more individuals with authority to settle the Dispute on the Member or Manager's behalf. The individuals so designated will be known as the "Authorized Individuals." The Responding Member or Manager may authorize himself or herself as an Authorized Individual. The Initiating Member or Manager and the Responding Member or Manager will collectively be referred to as the "Disputing Members or Managers" or individually as "Disputing Member or Manager." 13.3 Direct Negotiations, The Authorized Individuals may investigate the Dispute as they deem appropriate. But they agree to promptly, and in no event later than 30 days from the date of the Initiating Member or Manager's written notice, meet to discuss the Dispute's resolution. The Authorized Individuals will meet at the times and places and with the frequency as they may agree. If the Dispute has not been resolved within thirty (30) days from their initial meeting date, the Disputing Members or Managers will cease direct negotiations and will submit the Dispute to mediation in accordance with the following procedure. 13.4 Mediator Selection. The Authorized Individuals will have five business days from the date they cease direct negotiations to submit to each other a written list of acceptable qualified attorney -mediators not affiliated with any Member or Manager. Within five days from the date the list is received, the Authorized Individuals will rank the mediators in numerical order of preference and exchange the rankings. If one or more names are on both lists, the highest ranking person will be designated as the mediator. If no mediator has been selected wider this procedure, the Disputing Members or Managers agree .jointly to request a State or Federal District Judge of their choosing to supply within ten business days a list of potential qualified attorney -mediators. If they cannot agree upon a State or Federal Judge, the Local Administrative Judge for the county in which the Company's principal office is located may supply the list. Within five (5) business days from the date the list is received, the Authorized Individuals will again rank the proposed mediators in numerical order of preference and will simultaneously exchange the list and will select as the mediator the individual receiving the highest combined ranking. If the mediator is not available to serve, they will proceed to contact the mediator who was next highest in ranking until they are able to select a mediator. 13.5 Mediation Time and Place.

WILDMAN $1,000.00 50% 12221 FM 476 Somerset, Texas 78069 Exhibit A EXHIBIT "B" DETERMINATION OF PURCHASE, PRICE The purchase price at which Interests shall be purchased or sold pursuant to the exercise of any option created under the Article entitled "Admission of Members; Transfers of Interests; Withdrawal of a Member" or any withdrawal under the same Article of the Agreement of TEAM KAM MANAGEMENT LLC, a Texas Limited Liability Company, to which this Exhibit is attached shall be determined as follows; 1. The parties to any such purchase or sale may agree upon a price for the Interest(s) to be transferred in that transaction. 2. If an agreement under Paragraph l above is not reached before the date for closing (determined without regard to any extension to determine the purchase price), the price for the Interest(s) to be transferred (before the application of any minority discount) shall be an amount set by unanimous written agreement between the Company and all the Members (as of the date such amount is set), if such written agreement has been made not more than three hundred and sixty five (365) days prior to the date on which the first option period to purchase under the foregoing agreement has begun. 3. If an agreement under Paragraph I above is not reached before the date for closing (determined without regard to any extension to determine the purchase price) and if no price for the Interest has been set as described in Paragraph 2 above within such three hundred and sixty five (365) day period, the price shall be the fair value of the Interest(s), determined by appraisal as provided for in Paragraph 4 below as of the date on which occurred the event giving rise to the option (the "valuation date"). In applying the foregoing, the purclase price thus determined for the Inlerest(s) will be reduced by the amount of distributions with respect to such Interest(s) which are made to the selling Member at any time after the valuation date. 4. Within thirty (30) days of the date on which Paragraph 3 above becomes applicable, the sellers as a group will designate in writing one appraiser, and the purchasers as a group will designate in writing a second appraisal. If either side fails to make a timely designation of its appraiser, the other's appraiser will act alone to determine the value of the Interest(s). The two appraisers will each make their appraisal without consultation with the other. Any information given to one appraiser will also be given at the same time to the other appraiser. Each side will pay its own appraiser. If the value of the Interest(s) as determined by the appraiser who determines the higher such value exceeds by less than fifteen percent (15%) the value as determined by the appraiser who determines the lower such value, the simple average of the two values will control for purposes of the transaction. If the higher value exceeds the lower value by more than fifteen (15%), the two appraisers will agree within fourteen (14) days on a third appraiser. The cost of the third appraiser will be paid in equal shares by the two sides to the transaction. The third appraiser may consult with either or both of the other two appraisers. After he has determined Exhibit B the value of the Interest(s), the simple average of the two appraised values which are closest will control for purposes of the transaction. Each appraiser must be independent and experienced in business appraisals. S. If any suit or other proceeding is brought by or between any parties to this agreement to challenge the validity, reasonableness or enforceability of the price of the Interest(s) as determined above and in such suit or proceeding it should be decided that the price as determined above is invalid or unenforceable, any party to such suit or proceeding may seek a determination by the trier of fact of a "fair market value of the Interest" to be paid in the transaction and such determination shall be the price of the Interest(s) for the transactions between the parties to that suit or proceeding.

File Number: 802569890 Carlos H. Cascos Secretary of State It has been our pleasure to file the certificate of formation for the referenced limited partnership. This letter evidences the existence of the domestic entity as of the effective date noted on the certificate. Unless exempted, limited partnerships are subject to state tax laws, including franchise tax laws. Shortly, the Comptroller of Public Accounts will be contacting the partnership at its registered office for information that will assist the Comptroller in setting up the franchise tax account for the partnership. Information about franchise tax, and contact information for the Comptroller's office, is available on their web site at Itttp://window.state.tx.tis/taxinfo/franchise/index.lit ml. Limited partnerships do not file annual reports with the Secretary of State. However, a limited partnership that is not required to file a public information report under the Tax Code is subject to periodic reporting requirements with the Secretary of State. It is important for the partnership to continuously maintain a registered agent and office in Texas as this is the address to which the Secretary of State will send a request to file a periodic report. Failure to maintain a registered agent or office in Texas, failure to file a change to the agent or office information, or failure to file a periodic report when requested may result in the involuntary termination of the limited partnership.
