Section 3.1 Members.

(a) A Person shall be admitted as a Member and shall become bound by the terms of this Agreement if such Person purchases or otherwise lawfully acquires any Share and becomes the Record Holder of such Share in accordance with the provisions of this Article III.

(c) In addition to the Class A Shares and the Class B Shares Outstanding on the date hereof, and without the consent or approval of any Member, additional Shares may be issued by the Company in one or more classes or series, with such designations, preferences, rights, powers, qualifications, limitations and restrictions (which may be junior to, equivalent to, or senior or superior to, any existing classes of Shares), as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors and reflected in a written action or actions approved by the Board of Directors in compliance with Section 5.1 and subject to any limitations prescribed by Law (each, a “Share Designation”), including: (i) whether or not the class or series is to have voting rights, full, special or limited, or is to be without voting rights, and whether or not such class or series is to be entitled to vote as a separate class or series either alone or together with the holders of one or more other classes or series of Shares; (ii) the right to share Company profits and losses or items thereof; (iii) the Dividend rate, whether Dividends are payable in cash, Shares or other property, the conditions upon which and the times when such Dividends are payable, the preference to or the relation to the payment of Dividends payable on any other class or classes or series of Shares, whether or not such Dividends shall be cumulative or noncumulative, and if cumulative, the date or dates from which such Dividends shall accumulate; (iv) rights upon termination, dissolution and liquidation of the Company; (v) whether, and the terms and conditions upon which, the Company may redeem the Shares; (vi) whether such Shares are issued with the privilege of redemption, conversion or

exchange and, if so, the redemption, conversion or exchange price or prices or rate or rates, or any adjustments thereto, the date or dates on which, or the period or periods during which, the shares will be redeemable, convertible or exchangeable and all other terms and conditions upon which the redemption, conversion or exchange may be made; (vii) the terms and conditions upon which such Shares will be issued, evidenced by certificates and assigned or transferred; (viii) the method for determining the Percentage Interest, if any, applicable to such Shares; (ix) the terms and amounts of any sinking fund provided for the purchase or redemption of Shares of the class or series; (x) whether there will be restrictions on the issuance of Shares of the same class or series or any other class or series; and (xi) the right, if any, of the holder of each such Share to vote on Company matters, including matters relating to the relative rights, preferences and privileges of such Shares. A Share Designation (or any resolution of the Board of Directors amending any Share Designation) shall be effective when a duly executed original of the same is delivered to the Secretary of the Company for inclusion among the permanent records of the Company, and shall be annexed to, and constitute part of, this Agreement. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Share Designation, the Board of Directors may at any time increase or decrease the authorized amount of Shares of any class or series, but not below the number of Shares of such class or series then Outstanding.

(d) The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Shares in one or more classes, or one or more series of any such classes as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors. All Shares issued pursuant to, and in accordance with the requirements of, this Article III shall be validly issued Shares, except to the extent otherwise provided in the TBOC or this Agreement (including any Share Designation).

(e) The Board of Directors may, without the consent or approval of any Members, amend this Agreement and make any filings under the TBOC or otherwise to the extent the Board of Directors determines that it is necessary or desirable in order to effectuate any issuance of Shares pursuant to this Article III, including an amendment of Section 3.2(d).

Section 3.3 Certificates and Transfer.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless the Board of Directors shall determine otherwise in respect of some or all of any or all classes of Shares, Shares shall not be evidenced by certificates. Certificates that are issued shall be executed on behalf of the Company by the Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer or any Executive Vice President or Vice President and the Chief Financial Officer or the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company. No Certificate for a class or series of Shares shall be valid for any purpose until it has been countersigned by the Transfer Agent for such class or series of Shares; provided, however, that if the Board of Directors elects to cause the Company to issue Shares of such class or series in global form, the Certificate shall be valid upon receipt of a certificate from the Transfer Agent certifying that the Shares have been duly registered in accordance with the directions of the Company. The Shares shall be entered in the books of the Company as they are issued and shall exhibit the holder’s name and number of Shares. The Shares shall be transferred on the books of the Company, which may be maintained by a third-party registrar or the Transfer Agent, by the holder thereof in person or by his attorney, upon surrender for cancellation of certificates for at least the same number of shares, with an assignment and power of transfer endorsed thereon or attached thereto, duly executed, with such proof of the authenticity of the

signature as the Company or its agents may reasonably require or upon receipt of proper transfer instructions from the registered holder of uncertificated Shares and upon compliance with appropriate procedures for transferring Shares in uncertificated form, at which time the Company shall issue a new certificate to the Person entitled thereto (if the Shares are then represented by certificates), cancel the old certificate and record the transaction upon its books.

(b) By acceptance of the transfer of any Share, each transferee of a Share (including any nominee holder or an agent or representative acquiring such Shares for the account of another Person) (i) shall be admitted to the Company as a Member with respect to the Shares so transferred to such transferee when any such transfer or admission is reflected in the books and records of the Company, (ii) shall be deemed to agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, (iii) shall become the Record Holder of the Shares so transferred, (iv) grants powers of attorney to the Officers of the Company and any Liquidator of the Company, as specified herein, and (v) makes the consents and waivers contained in this Agreement. The transfer of any Shares and the admission of any new Member shall not constitute an amendment to this Agreement.

(c) Each certificated Share shall be signed, countersigned and registered in the manner required by this Agreement. In case any Officer, the Transfer Agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate has ceased to be such Officer, Transfer Agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Company with the same effect as if he or she were such Officer, Transfer Agent or registrar at the date of issue.

(d) If any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Transfer Agent, the appropriate Officers on behalf of the Company shall execute, and the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver in exchange therefor, a new Certificate evidencing the same number and class or series of Shares as the Certificate so surrendered. The appropriate Officers on behalf of the Company shall execute, and the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver, a new Certificate in place of any Certificate previously issued if the Record Holder of the Certificate: (i) makes proof by affidavit, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, that a previously issued Certificate has been lost, destroyed or stolen; (ii) requests the issuance of a new Certificate before the Company has notice that the Certificate has been acquired by a purchaser for value in good faith and without notice of an adverse claim; (iii) if requested by the Company, delivers to the Company a bond, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, with surety or sureties and with fixed or open penalty as the Company may direct to indemnify the Company and the Transfer Agent against any claim that may be made on account of the alleged loss, destruction or theft of the Certificate; and (iv) satisfies any other reasonable requirements imposed by the Company. If a Member fails to notify the Company within a reasonable time after he has notice of the loss, destruction or theft of a Certificate, and a transfer of the Shares represented by the Certificate is registered before the Company or the Transfer Agent receives such notification, the Member shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, be precluded from making any claim against the Company or the Transfer Agent for such transfer or for a new Certificate. As a condition to the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 3.2(d), the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent) reasonably connected therewith.

(e) The Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to make all such rules and regulations concerning the issue, transfer and registration or the replacement of certificates for Shares. The Company may enter into additional agreements with Members to restrict the transfer of Shares in any manner not prohibited by the TBOC.

(f) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude the settlement of any transactions involving Shares entered into through the facilities of any National Securities Exchange on which such Shares are listed for trading.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Class B Shares may be transferred unless a corresponding number of units representing limited liability company interests (“OpCo Units”) of EagleRock Land Operating are transferred therewith in accordance with the OpCo Agreement.

Section 3.4 Record Holders. The Company shall be entitled to recognize the Record Holder as the owner of a Share and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Share on the part of any other Person, regardless of whether the Company shall have actual or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by Law or any applicable rule, regulation, guideline or requirement of any National Securities Exchange on which such Shares are listed for trading. Without limiting the foregoing, when a Person (such as a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or clearing corporation or an agent of any of the foregoing) is acting as nominee, agent or in some other representative capacity for another Person in acquiring and/or holding Shares, as between the Company on the one hand, and such other Persons on the other, such representative Person shall be the Record Holder of such Shares.

Section 3.5 Splits and Combinations.

(a) The Company may make a pro rata Dividend of Shares of any class or series to all Record Holders of such class or series of Shares, or may effect a subdivision or combination of Shares of any class or series so long as, after any such event and subject to the effect of Section 3.5(d) below, each Member shall have the same Percentage Interest in the Company as before such event, and any amounts calculated on a per Share basis or stated as a number of Shares are proportionately adjusted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall either Class A Shares or Class B Shares be split, divided, or combined unless the Outstanding Shares of the other class shall be proportionately split, divided or combined, and a corresponding number of OpCo Units are split, divided or combined in accordance with the OpCo Agreement.

(b) Whenever such a Dividend, subdivision or combination of Shares is declared, the Board of Directors may select a Record Date as of which the Dividend, subdivision or combination shall be effective and shall send notice thereof at least 20 days prior to such Record Date to each Record Holder. Such Record Date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the Record Date is adopted and shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days prior to such action.

(c) Promptly following any such Dividend, subdivision or combination, the Company may issue Certificates to the Record Holders of Shares as of the applicable Record Date representing the new number of Shares held by such Record Holders, or the Board of Directors may adopt such other procedures that it determines to be necessary or appropriate to reflect such changes. If any such combination results in a smaller total number of Outstanding Shares, the Company shall require, as a condition to the delivery to a Record Holder of such new Certificate, the surrender of any Certificate held by such Record Holder immediately prior to such Record Date.

(d) The Company shall not issue fractional Shares upon any Dividend, subdivision or combination of Shares. If a Dividend, subdivision or combination of Shares would otherwise result in the issuance of fractional Shares, each fractional Share shall be rounded to the nearest whole Share (and a 0.5 Share shall be rounded to the next higher Share).

Section 3.6 Class B Shares. Class B Shares shall be redeemable for Class A Shares on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the OpCo Agreement. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon Redemption (as defined in the OpCo Agreement) of the Outstanding Class B Shares for Class A Shares pursuant to the OpCo Agreement, such number of Class A Shares that shall be issuable upon any such Redemption pursuant to the OpCo Agreement; provided that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude EagleRock Land Operating or the Company from satisfying its rights or obligations in respect of any such Redemption of Class B Shares pursuant to the OpCo Agreement by delivering to the holder of such Class B Shares upon such Redemption cash in lieu of Class A Shares in the amount permitted by and provided in the OpCo Agreement or Class A Shares held in the treasury of the Company. All Class A Shares issued upon any such Redemption will, upon issuance in accordance with the OpCo Agreement, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable (except as such non-assessability may be limited by Sections 101.206 and 101.613 of the TBOC).

Section 3.7 Rights of Members.

(a) Each Member shall have the right, for a purpose that is reasonably related, as determined by the Board of Directors, to such Member’s interest as a Member in the Company, upon reasonable written demand stating the purpose of such demand and at such Member’s own expense, to obtain the following documents (which shall be deemed satisfied by virtue of the Company publicly filing such documents via ▇▇▇▇▇):

(i) the Company’s most recent annual report and any subsequent quarterly or periodic reports required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act;

(ii) a copy of other publicly available documents that the Company has filed with or furnished to the Commission; and

(iii) a copy of this Agreement and the Certificate of Formation and all amendments thereto, together with copies of the executed copies of all powers of attorney pursuant to which this Agreement, the Certificate of Formation and all amendments thereto have been executed.

(b) The rights pursuant to Section 3.7(a) replace in their entirety any rights to information provided for in Section 101.502(a) of the TBOC. Each of the Members, each other Person who acquires an interest in a Share and each other Person bound by this Agreement hereby agrees to the fullest extent permitted by Law that such Person does not have any rights as a Member to receive any information either pursuant to the TBOC or otherwise except for the information identified in Section 3.7(a).

(c) The Company may keep confidential from the Members, for such period of time as the Board of Directors deems reasonable, (i) any information that the Board of Directors reasonably believes to be in the nature of trade secrets or (ii) other information the disclosure of which the Board of Directors believes (A) is not in the best interests of the Company Group, (B) could damage the Company Group or its business or (C) that any Group Member is required by Law or by agreement with any third party to keep confidential (other than agreements with Affiliates of the Company the primary purpose of which is to circumvent the obligations set forth in this Section 3.7).

Section 3.8 Shareholder’s Agreements. The Company and each Sponsor entered into a Shareholder’s Agreement, which sets forth certain agreements among them, including with respect to the designation of nominees for the Board of Directors. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Shareholder’s Agreements, the terms of the Shareholder’s Agreements shall control. Any person purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any Shares shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of the Shareholder’s Agreements.

ARTICLE IV

DIVIDENDS

Section 4.1 Dividends. Subject to the prior rights and preferences, if any, applicable to any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation or any series thereof, the holders of Class A Shares shall be entitled to receive ratably in proportion to the number of Class A Shares held by them such Dividends (payable in cash, Shares or otherwise), if any, as may be declared thereon by the Board of Directors at any time and from time to time out of any assets of the Company legally available therefor. Dividends shall not be declared or paid on the Class B Shares unless (a) the Dividend consists of Class B Shares or of rights, options, warrants or other securities convertible or exercisable into, or exchangeable or redeemable for, Class B Shares paid proportionally with respect to each Outstanding Class B Share and (b) a Dividend consisting of Class A Shares or of rights, options, warrants or other securities convertible or exercisable into, or exchangeable or redeemable for, Class A Shares on equivalent terms is simultaneously paid to the holders of Class A Shares. If Dividends are declared on the Class A Shares or the Class B Shares that are payable in Common Shares, or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable or redeemable for, Common Shares, the Dividends payable to the holders of Class A Shares shall be paid only in Class A Shares (or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable or redeemable for, Class A Shares), the Dividends payable to the holders of Class B Shares shall be paid only in Class B Shares (or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable or redeemable for, Class B Shares), and such Dividends shall be paid in the same number of Shares (or fraction thereof) on a per share basis of the Class A Shares and Class B Shares, respectively (or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable or redeemable for, the same number of Shares (or fraction thereof) on a per share basis of the Class A Shares and Class B Shares, respectively). In no event shall either Class A Shares or Class B Shares be split, divided, or combined unless the Outstanding Shares of the other class shall be proportionately split, divided or combined.

Section 4.2 Distributions on Liquidation. Notwithstanding Section 4.1, in the event of the dissolution and liquidation of the Company, all proceeds received during or after the end of any Quarter in which the Liquidation Date occurs shall be applied and distributed solely in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 11.3.

Section 4.3 Record Holders. Each Dividend in respect of a Class A Share shall be paid by the Company, directly or through the Transfer Agent or through any other Person or agent, only to the Record Holder of such Class A Share as of the Record Date set for such Dividend. Such payment shall constitute full payment and satisfaction of the Company’s liability in respect of such payment, regardless of any claim of any Person who may have an interest in such payment by reason of an assignment or otherwise.

ARTICLE V

MANAGEMENT AND OPERATION OF BUSINESS

Section 5.1 Power and Authority of Board of Directors. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by or under the direction of a board of directors (the “Board of Directors”). The Directors shall constitute “managers” within the meaning of the TBOC. No Member, by virtue of its status as such, shall have any management power over the business and affairs of the Company or actual or apparent authority to enter into, execute or deliver contracts on behalf of, or to otherwise bind, the Company. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, in addition to the powers that now or hereafter can be granted to managers under the TBOC and to all other powers granted under any other provision of this Agreement, the Board of Directors shall, subject to the restrictions imposed by Law or the Certificate of Formation, have full power and authority to exercise all the powers of the Company. The provisions of this Article V and other related provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to replace the provisions of Chapter 101, Subchapter G of the TBOC.

Section 5.2 Number, Qualification and Term of Office of Directors. The number of Directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be seven (7) at the time of the execution of this Agreement. After completion of the IPO, the number of Directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be determined from time to time by resolution adopted by a majority of the Board of Directors then in office, subject to the terms of the Shareholder’s Agreements, Section 5.21 hereof, and the rights of the holders of any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation, if applicable, but shall consist of not less than seven (7) Directors. No decrease in the number of authorized Directors constituting the Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent Director.

Section 5.3 Classes of Directors.

(a) Until the Trigger Event, the Directors, other than those who may be elected by the holders of any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation to the extent provided therein, shall consist of a single class, with the initial term of office to expire at the next annual meeting of Members following the date hereof, and each Director shall hold office

until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, subject, however, to such Director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. Prior to the Trigger Event, at each annual meeting of Members, Directors elected to succeed those Directors whose terms then expire shall be elected for a term of office to expire at the next succeeding annual meeting of Members after his or her election (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5.3(b)), with each Director to hold office until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, subject, however, to such Director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

(b) On and after the Trigger Event, the Directors, other than those who may be elected by the holders of any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation to the extent provided therein, shall be divided, with respect to the time for which they severally hold office, into three classes, as nearly equal in number as is reasonably possible, with the initial term of office of the first class to expire at the first annual meeting of Members following the Trigger Event, the initial term of office of the second class to expire at the second annual meeting of Members following the Trigger Event, and the initial term of office of the third class to expire at the third annual meeting of Members following the Trigger Event, with each Director to hold office until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, subject, however, to (i) the terms of the Shareholder’s Agreements and (ii) such Director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. Following such initial term, each director shall serve for a term ending on the third annual meeting following the annual meeting of Members at which such director was elected; provided, however, that if at the time of the Trigger Event, any of the Directors are designees of Double Eagle, such designees shall, at Double Eagle’s election, be classified as members of the third class of Directors. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, the Board of Directors shall assign members of the Board of Directors, other than those Directors who may be elected by the holders of any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation to the extent provided therein, to such classes at the time such classification becomes effective. At each meeting specified in the related Share Designation of Members following the Trigger Event, Directors elected to succeed those Directors whose terms expire at such meeting shall be elected for a term of office to expire in accordance with the related Share Designation, with each Director to hold office until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, subject, however, to such Director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. If the number of Directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of Directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, and any additional Director of any class elected to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in such class or from the death, resignation or removal from office of a Director or other cause shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class, but in no case will a decrease in the number of Directors shorten the term of any incumbent Director. Directors need not be Members.

Section 5.4 Removal.

(a) Prior to the Trigger Event, subject to (i) the terms of the Shareholder’s Agreements and (ii) the rights of the holders of any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation, if any, to elect and/or remove additional Directors, any Director may be removed from time to time and at any time, either for or without cause, upon the affirmative vote of a Share Majority acting in accordance with the TBOC and this Agreement (including any Share Designation).

(b) On and after the Trigger Event, subject to (i) the terms of the Shareholder’s Agreements and (ii) the rights of the holders of any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation, if any, to elect and/or remove additional Directors and except as otherwise provided herein, any Director may be removed only for cause, upon the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of the Outstanding Voting Shares, voting together as a single class and acting at a meeting of the Members in accordance with the TBOC and this Agreement (including any Share Designation). Except as applicable Law otherwise provides, cause for the removal of a Director shall be deemed to exist only if the Director whose removal is proposed: (A) has been convicted of a felony by a court of competent jurisdiction and that conviction is no longer subject to direct appeal; (B) has been found to have been grossly negligent in the performance of his or her duties to the Company in any matter of substantial importance to the Company by (1) the affirmative vote of at least 80% of the disinterested Directors then in office at any meeting of the Board of Directors called for that purpose or (2) a court of competent jurisdiction; or (C) has been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be mentally incompetent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a party to a Shareholder’s Agreement provides notice to the Company to remove a Director designated by such Member pursuant to the terms of such Shareholder’s Agreement, the Company shall take all necessary action to cause such removal, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

Section 5.5 Resignations. Any Director may resign at any time by giving notice of such Director’s resignation in writing to the Company. Any such resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein. Unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.

Section 5.6 Vacancies. Subject to (a) the terms of the Shareholder’s Agreements, and (b) the rights of the holders of any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation then Outstanding, if any, any newly created directorship that results from an increase in the number of Directors or any vacancy on the Board of Directors shall be filled (i) prior to the Trigger Event, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of Directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining Director, or the affirmative vote of a Share Majority acting at a meeting of the Members or by written consent (if and then only to the extent permitted) in accordance with the TBOC and this Agreement (including any Share Designation) and (ii) on or after the Trigger Event, solely by the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of Directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining Director, and shall not be filled by the Members. Any Director elected or appointed to fill a vacancy not resulting from an increase in the number of Directors shall hold office for the remaining term of his or her predecessor and until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. Subject to the terms of (A) the Shareholder’s Agreements and (B) the rights of the holders of any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation, if any, any Director elected or appointed prior to the Trigger Event to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in the number of Directors shall hold office for a term to expire at the next succeeding annual meeting of Members after his or her election or appointment, and any Director elected or appointed on and after the Trigger Event to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in the number of Directors shall be assigned to such class as the Board of Directors determines is appropriate, subject, however, to such Director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

Section 5.7 Nomination of Directors. Only Persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 14.11(a)(ii) shall be eligible for election as Directors of the Company, except as may be otherwise provided in the Shareholder’s Agreements and any Share Designation with respect to the right of Members of any class of Shares to nominate and elect a specified number of Directors.

Section 5.8 Chairman of Meetings. The Board of Directors may elect a member of the Board of Directors as Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Chairman of the Board”). Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board shall preside at all meetings of the Board of Directors and be chairman of all Member meetings. In the absence of the Chairman of the Board, meetings of Members shall be presided over by the Chief Executive Officer if he or she is a Director or, in the absence of the Chief Executive Officer, by another Person designated by the Board of Directors. The Chairman of the Board shall perform all duties incidental to his or her office that may be required by Law and all such other duties as are properly required by the Board of Directors. The Chairman of the Board shall make reports to the Board of Directors and shall see that all orders and resolutions of the Board of Directors and of any committee thereof are carried into effect. The Chairman of the Board may also serve as Chief Executive Officer, if so appointed by the Board of Directors.

Section 5.9 Place of Meetings. The Board of Directors may hold meetings, both regular and special, either within or without the State of Texas.

Section 5.10 Regular Meetings. The Board of Directors may, by resolution, provide the time and place (if any) for the holding of regular meetings without any notice other than such resolution.

Section 5.11 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board of Directors shall be called at the request of the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or a majority of the Board of Directors then in office. The Person or Persons authorized to call special meetings of the Board of Directors may fix the place, if any, date and time of the meetings. Any business may be conducted at a special meeting of the Board of Directors.

Section 5.12 Action Without Meeting. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting by the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, as the case may be, may be taken without a meeting if a consent thereto is signed or transmitted electronically, as the case may be, by members of the Board of Directors or of such committee, as the case may be, having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all members of the Board of Directors or of such committee entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Such writing or electronic transmission shall be filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or such committee.

Section 5.13 Notice. Notice of any special meeting of the Board of Directors shall be given to each Director at his or her business or residence in writing by hand delivery, first-class or overnight mail, courier service or electronic transmission or orally by telephone. If mailed by first-class mail, such notice shall be deemed adequately delivered if deposited in the United States mails so addressed, with postage thereon prepaid, at least five days before such meeting. If by overnight mail or courier service, such notice shall be deemed adequately delivered if the notice is delivered

to the overnight mail or courier service company at least 24 hours before such meeting. If by electronic transmission, such notice shall be deemed adequately delivered if the notice is transmitted at least 24 hours before such meeting. If by telephone or by hand delivery, the notice shall be given at least 24 hours prior to the time set for the meeting and shall be confirmed by electronic transmission that is sent promptly thereafter. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors need be specified in the notice of such meeting, except for amendments to this Agreement.

Section 5.14 Meetings by Remote Communication. Members of the Board of Directors, or any committee thereof, may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors or such committee by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all Persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

Section 5.15 Quorum. At all meetings of the Board of Directors, a majority of the then total number of Directors in office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. At all meetings of any committee of the Board of Directors, the presence of a majority of the total number of members of such committee (assuming no vacancies) shall constitute a quorum. The act of a majority of the Directors or committee members present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board of Directors or such committee, as the case may be. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee, a majority of the Directors or members, as the case may be, present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice other than announcement at the meeting unless (a) the date, time and place, if any, of the adjourned meeting are not announced at the time of adjournment, in which case notice conforming to the requirements of Section 5.13 of this Agreement shall be given to each Director, or (b) the meeting is adjourned for more than 24 hours, in which case the notice referred to in clause (a) shall be given to those Directors not present at the announcement of the date, time and place of the adjourned meeting.

Section 5.16 Waiver of Notice. Whenever notice to any Director is required to be given under this Agreement, a written waiver, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a Person at any such meeting of the Directors shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the Person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice unless so required by resolution of the Board of Directors. All waivers and approvals shall be filed with the Company records or made part of the minutes of the meeting.

Section 5.17 Regulations. To the extent consistent with applicable Law and this Agreement, the Board of Directors may adopt such rules and regulations for the conduct of meetings of the Board of Directors and for the management of the affairs and business of the Company as the Board of Directors may deem appropriate.

Section 5.18 Minutes. The Board of Directors and each committee shall keep regular minutes of their meetings and proceedings and each committee shall report the same to the Board of Directors at the next meeting thereof. Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, the Secretary of the Company shall act as secretary at each meeting of the Board of Directors. In case the Secretary shall be absent from any meeting of the Board of Directors, an Assistant Secretary shall perform the duties of secretary at such meeting; and in the absence from any such meeting of the Secretary and all the Assistant Secretaries, the chairman of the meeting may appoint any Person to act as secretary of the meeting.

Section 5.19 Remuneration. Each Director shall receive remuneration for such Director’s services as determined by the Board of Directors at any time and from time to time by resolution. The Board of Directors may also likewise provide that the Company shall reimburse each Director for any expenses paid by such Director on account of such Director’s attendance at any meeting.

ARTICLE VI

EXCULPATION, INDEMNIFICATION, ADVANCES AND INSURANCE

Section 6.1 Exculpation. Subject to other applicable provisions of this Article VI to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, the Indemnified Persons shall not be liable to the members of the Company Group, any Director, any Member or any holder of any equity interest in any Subsidiary of the Company by virtue of being an Indemnified Person or for any acts or omissions in their capacity as an Indemnified Person or otherwise in connection with the Company, this Agreement or the business and affairs of the members of the Company Group.

Section 6.2 Indemnification.

(a) The Indemnified Persons shall be indemnified by the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by Law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended (provided, that no such amendment shall limit an Indemnified Person’s rights to indemnification hereunder with respect to any actions or events occurring prior to such amendment), against all expenses and liabilities (including judgments, fines, penalties, interest, amounts paid in settlement with the approval of the Company and counsel fees and disbursements) arising by virtue of being an Indemnified Person or for any acts or omissions in their capacity as an Indemnified Person or

otherwise in connection with the Company, this Agreement or the business and affairs of the members of the Company Group, or any investment made or held by any member of the Company Group, including in connection with any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other action, suit or proceeding to which any such Person may hereafter be made party by reason of being or having been a manager of the Company under the TBOC, a Director or Officer of any member of the Company Group, or an officer, director, member, partner, fiduciary or trustee of another Person or any employee benefit plan at the request of the Company. Without limitation, the foregoing indemnity shall extend to any liability of any Indemnified Person, pursuant to a loan guaranty or otherwise, for any indebtedness of any member of the Company Group (including any indebtedness that any member of the Company Group has assumed or taken subject to), and the Officers are hereby authorized and empowered, on behalf of the Company, to enter into one or more indemnity agreements consistent with the provisions of this Article VI in favor of any Indemnified Person having or potentially having liability for any such indebtedness. It is the intention of this Section 6.2(a) that the Company indemnify each Indemnified Person to the fullest extent permitted by Law.

(b) The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent they restrict the duties and liabilities of an Indemnified Person otherwise existing at Law or in equity, including Section 6.3, are agreed by each Member to modify such duties and liabilities of the Indemnified Person to the extent permitted by Law, provided that nothing in this Agreement shall limit the effect of Section 101.256 of the TBOC.

(c) Any Indemnified Person may apply to the Business Court in the Eleventh Business Court Division of the State of Texas or any other court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Texas for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Article VI. The basis of such indemnification by a court shall be a determination by such court that indemnification of the Indemnified Person is proper in the circumstances because such Indemnified Person has met the applicable standards of conduct set forth in Section 6.2(a). Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.2(c) shall be given to the Company promptly upon the filing of such application. If successful, in whole or in part, the Indemnified Person seeking indemnification shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such application.

(d) To the fullest extent permitted by Law, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an Indemnified Person in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized in this Section 6.2.

(e) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to this Article VI shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under this Agreement, or any other agreement, vote of Members or disinterested Directors or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnified Person who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnified Person unless otherwise provided in a written agreement with such Indemnified Person or in the writing pursuant to which such Indemnified Person is indemnified, it being the policy of the Company that indemnification of the

Persons specified in Section 6.2(a) shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by Law. The provisions of this Article VI shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any Person who is not specified in Section 6.2(a) but whom the Company has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the TBOC.

(f) The Company may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any Person entitled to indemnification under this Article VI against any liability asserted against such Person and incurred by such Person in any capacity to which they are entitled to indemnification hereunder, or arising out of such Person’s status as such, whether or not the Company would have the power or the obligation to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Article VI.

(g) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VI shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of any Person entitled to indemnification under this Article VI.

(h) The Company may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to officers, employees and agents of the Company and to the officers, employees and agents of the Company Group similar to those conferred in this Article VI to Indemnified Persons.

(i) If this Article VI or any portion of this Article VI shall be invalidated on any ground by a court of competent jurisdiction the Company shall nevertheless indemnify each Indemnified Person as to expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including a grand jury proceeding or action or suit brought by or in the right of the Company, to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article VI that shall not have been invalidated.

(j) Each of the Indemnified Persons may, in the performance of his, her or its duties, consult with legal counsel and accountants, and any act or omission by such Person on behalf of the Company in furtherance of the interests of the Company in reliance upon, and in accordance with, the advice of such legal counsel or accountants as to matters the Indemnified Person believes are within such Person’s professional or expert competence will be full justification for any such act or omission, and such Person will be fully protected for such acts and omissions.

(k) An Indemnified Person shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Article VI because the Indemnified Person had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

(l) Any liabilities that an Indemnified Person incurs resulting from acting on behalf of the Company (whether as a fiduciary or otherwise) in connection with the operation, administration or maintenance of an employee benefit plan or any related trust or funding mechanism (whether such liabilities are in the form of excise taxes assessed by the United States

Internal Revenue Service, penalties assessed by the Department of Labor, restitutions to such a plan or trust or other funding mechanism or to a participant or beneficiary of such plan, trust or other funding mechanism, or otherwise) shall be treated as liabilities indemnifiable under this Article VI, to the maximum extent permitted by Law.

(n) Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Article VI or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the liability of any indemnitee under this Article VI as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted and provided such Person became an indemnitee hereunder prior to such amendment, modification or repeal.

(a) Except with respect to actions taken or omitted with respect to conflicts of interests (Section 6.4) and business opportunities (Section 6.5), the duties and obligations owed to the Company and the Members by the Officers and Directors shall be those duties and obligations applicable to officers and directors, respectively, of a Texas corporation under Texas Law. The duties and obligations owed to the Company and the Members by the Officers and Directors in respect of matters contemplated by Section 6.4 and Section 6.5 shall not be those duties and obligations applicable to officers and directors, respectively, of a Texas corporation under the Texas law, but rather such duties and obligations shall solely be governed by the requirements set forth in Section 6.4 and Section 6.5, as applicable.

The Board of Directors shall be authorized, but not required, in connection with its resolution of such conflict of interest to seek Special Approval of such resolution, and the Board of Directors may also adopt a resolution or course of action that has not received Special Approval. If Special Approval is sought, any such determination, action or omission by the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, as applicable, will for all purposes be presumed to have been in Good Faith and in any proceeding brought by any Member or the Company challenging such approval, the Person bringing or prosecuting such proceeding shall have the burden of proving that such determination, action or omission was not in Good Faith. If Special Approval is not sought and the Board of Directors, or committee thereof, as applicable, approves the resolution or course of action taken with respect to a conflict of interest, then it shall be presumed that, in making its decision, the Board of Directors (or committee thereof) acted in accordance with any and all of its duties, whether express or implied, in equity or otherwise, and in any proceeding brought by any Member or by or on behalf of such Member or any other Member or the Company challenging such approval, the Person bringing or prosecuting such proceeding shall have the burden of overcoming such presumption. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the existence of the conflicts of interest described in the Registration Statement are hereby approved by all Members and shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or of any duty otherwise existing at Law, in equity or otherwise.

The Liquidator (if other than the Board of Directors) shall be entitled to receive such compensation for its services as may be approved by holders of a Share Majority. The Liquidator (if other than the Board of Directors) shall agree not to resign at any time without 15 days’ prior notice and may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by notice of removal approved by holders of a Share Majority. Upon dissolution, death, incapacity, removal or resignation of the Liquidator, a successor and substitute Liquidator (who shall have and succeed to all rights, powers and duties of the original Liquidator) shall within 30 days thereafter be approved by holders of a Share Majority. The right to approve a successor or substitute Liquidator in the manner provided herein shall be deemed to refer also to any such successor or substitute Liquidator approved in the manner herein provided. Except as expressly provided in this Article XI, the Liquidator approved in the manner provided herein shall have and may exercise, without further authorization or consent of any of the parties hereto, all of the powers conferred upon the Board of Directors under the terms of this Agreement (but subject to all of the applicable limitations, contractual and otherwise, upon the exercise of such powers) necessary or appropriate to carry out the duties and functions of the Liquidator hereunder for and during the period of time required to complete the winding up and liquidation of the Company as provided for herein.

Section 11.3 Liquidation. The Liquidator shall proceed to dispose of the assets of the Company, discharge its liabilities, and otherwise wind up its affairs in such manner and over such period as determined by the Liquidator, subject to the TBOC and as provided herein. The steps to be accomplished by the Liquidator are as follows:

(a) as promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final liquidation, the Liquidator shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public accountants of the Company’s assets, liabilities and operations through the last day of the calendar month in which the dissolution occurs or the final liquidation is completed, as applicable;

(b) the Liquidator shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Company funds, or otherwise make reasonable provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash fund for contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities in such amount and for such term as the Liquidator may reasonably determine): all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company (including expenses incurred in liquidation); and

(c) following the payment and satisfaction of liabilities under Section 11.3(b), all remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed to the Members in accordance with the terms of this Agreement by the end of the taxable year during which the liquidation of the Company occurs (or, if later, by 90 days after the date of the liquidation). The distribution of cash and/or property to the Members in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.3 constitutes a complete return to the Members of their Capital Contributions, a complete distribution to the Members of their interest in the Company and all the Company’s property and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented within the meaning of the TBOC. To the extent that a Member returns funds to the Company, it has no claim against any other Member for those funds.

Section 11.4 Cancellation of Certificate of Formation. Upon the completion of the distribution of Company cash and property as provided in Section 11.3 in connection with the liquidation of the Company, the Certificate of Formation and all qualifications of the Company as a foreign limited liability company in jurisdictions other than the State of Texas shall be canceled and such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Company shall be taken.

Section 11.5 Return of Contributions. None of any member of the Board of Directors or any Officer of the Company will be personally liable for, or have any obligation to contribute or loan any monies or property to the Company to enable it to effectuate, the return of the Capital Contributions of the Members, or any portion thereof, it being expressly understood that any such return shall be made solely from Company assets.

Section 11.6 Waiver of Partition. To the maximum extent permitted by Law, each Member hereby waives any right to partition of the Company property.

(b) Except as provided in Section 13.3(d) and Section 13.6, the Merger Agreement as applicable, shall be approved upon receiving the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of a Share Majority unless the Merger Agreement contains any provision that, if contained in an amendment to this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement or the TBOC would require for its approval the vote or consent of a greater percentage of the Outstanding Voting Shares or of any class or series of Members, in which case such greater percentage vote or consent shall be required for approval of the Merger Agreement.

For purposes of applying this Section 13.6, references in the TBOC to stock of a constituent corporation shall be deemed to refer to Shares.

ARTICLE XIV

MEMBER MEETINGS

Section 14.1 Member Meetings.

(a) All acts of Members to be taken hereunder shall be taken in the manner provided in this Article XIV. The provisions of this Article XIV and other related provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to replace the provisions of Chapter 101, Subchapter H of the TBOC to the extent permitted by applicable Law. An annual meeting of the Members for the election of Directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting shall be held at such time and place as the Board of Directors shall specify in a resolution of the Board of Directors. If authorized by the Board of Directors, and subject to such guidelines and procedures as the Board of Directors may adopt, Members and proxyholders not physically present at a meeting of Members may by means of remote communication participate in such meeting and be deemed present in person and vote at such meeting, provided that the Company shall implement reasonable measures to verify that each Person deemed present and permitted to vote at the meeting by means of remote communication is a Member or proxyholder, to provide such Members or proxyholders a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting, and to record the votes or other action made by such Members or proxyholders.

(b) A failure to hold the annual meeting of the Members at the designated time or to elect a sufficient number of Directors to conduct the business of the Company shall not affect otherwise valid acts of the Company or work a forfeiture or dissolution of the Company. If the annual meeting for election of Directors is not held on the date designated therefor, the Directors

shall cause the meeting to be held as soon as is convenient. If there is a failure to hold the annual meeting for a period of 30 days after the date designated for the annual meeting, or if no date has been designated, for a period of 13 months after the latest to occur of the date of this Agreement or the Company’s last annual meeting, the Business Court in the Eleventh Business Court Division of the State of Texas may summarily order a meeting to be held upon the application of any Member or Director. The Business Court in the Eleventh Business Court Division of the State of Texas may issue such orders as may be appropriate, including orders designating the time and place of such meeting, the record date for determination of Members entitled to vote, and the form of notice of such meeting.

(c) All elections of Directors will be by written ballots; if authorized by the Board of Directors, such requirement of a written ballot shall be satisfied by a ballot submitted by electronic transmission, provided that any such electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be reasonably determined that the electronic transmission was authorized by the Member or proxyholder.

(d) Special meetings of Members of the Company may be called only by the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the whole Board of Directors; provided, however, that prior to the Trigger Event, special meetings of the Members may also be called by the Secretary of the Company at the request of the Record Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Voting Shares. On and after the Trigger Event, subject to the rights of holders of any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation, the Members shall not have the power to call or request a special meeting of the Members. The Board of Directors or a designee authorized by the Board of Directors may fix the date, time and place, if any, of any special meeting. The Board of Directors or, in the case of a meeting called at the request of the Record Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Voting Shares, the Secretary of the Company at the request of such holders, may adjourn, reschedule, postpone or cancel any special meeting of the Members previously scheduled by or on behalf of the Board of Directors.

Section 14.2 Notice of Meetings of Members.

(a) Notice, stating the place, if any, day and time of any annual or special meeting of the Members, as determined by the Board of Directors, and (i) the means of remote communications, if any, by which Members and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, (ii) the record date for determining the Members entitled to vote at the meeting, if such date is different from the record date for determining Members entitled to notice of the meeting, (iii) in the case of a special meeting of the Members, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, as determined by the Board of Directors if applicable, or (iv) in the case of an annual meeting, those matters that the Board of Directors, at the time of giving the notice, intends to present for action by the Members, shall be delivered by the Company not less than 10 calendar days nor more than 60 calendar days before the date of the meeting, in a manner and otherwise in accordance with Section 15.1 to each Record Holder who is entitled to vote at such meeting. Such further notice shall be given as may be required by Texas Law. The notice of any meeting of the Members at which Directors are to be elected shall include the name of any nominee or nominees who, at the time of the notice, the Board of Directors intends to present for election. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of Members as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the Company’s notice of meeting. Any previously scheduled meeting of the Members may be adjourned, rescheduled or postponed, and any special meeting of the Members may be adjourned, rescheduled, postponed or canceled, by resolution of the Board of Directors upon public notice given prior to or on the date previously scheduled for such meeting of the Members.

(b) The Board of Directors shall designate the place, if any, of meeting, or means of remote communication, if any, for any annual meeting or for any special meeting of the Members. If no designation is made, the place of meeting shall be the principal office of the Company.

Section 14.3 Record Date. For purposes of determining the Members entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the Members, the Board of Directors may set a Record Date, which shall not be less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting (unless such requirement conflicts with any rule, regulation, guideline or requirement of any National Securities Exchange on which the Shares are listed for trading, in which case the rule, regulation, guideline or requirement of such exchange shall govern). If no Record Date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the Record Date for determining Members entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Members shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of Members of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Members shall apply to any adjournment, rescheduling or postponement of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new Record Date for the adjourned, rescheduled or postponed meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the Record Date for Members entitled to notice of such adjourned, rescheduled or postponed meeting the same or earlier date as that fixed for determination of Members entitled to vote in accordance herewith at the adjourned, rescheduled or postponed meeting.

Section 14.4 Adjournment. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting and a new Record Date need not be fixed, if the time and place, if any, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which Members and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are (i) announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, (ii) displayed, during the time scheduled for the meeting, on the same electronic network used to enable Members and proxyholders to participate in the meeting by means of remote communication, or (iii) set forth in the notice of meeting given in accordance with Section 14.2; unless such adjournment shall be for more than 30 days. At the adjourned meeting, the Company may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days or if a new Record Date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the time and place, if any, and the means of remote communication, if any, of the adjourned meeting shall be given in accordance with this Article XIV.

Section 14.5 Waiver of Notice; Approval of Meeting. Whenever notice to the Members is required to be given under this Agreement, a written waiver, signed by the Person entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the Person entitled to notice (which shall constitute a waiver duly executed or signed by such Person), whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a Person at any such meeting of the Members shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the Person attends a

meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Members need be specified in any written waiver of notice unless so required by resolution of the Board of Directors. All waivers and approvals shall be filed with the Company records or made part of the minutes of the meeting.

Section 14.6 Quorum; Required Vote for Member Action; Voting for Directors.

(a) At any meeting of the Members, the holders of a majority of the Outstanding Voting Shares entitled to vote at the meeting, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for such meeting, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary; provided, however, that where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series is required, a majority of the voting power of the class or classes or series entitled to vote on such matter, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum of such class or classes or series with respect to such matter. The submission of matters to Members for approval and the election of Directors shall occur only at a meeting of the Members duly called and held in accordance with this Agreement at which a quorum is present; provided, however, that the Members present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough Members to leave less than a quorum, if any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by the required percentage of Outstanding Voting Shares specified in this Agreement. Any meeting of Members may be adjourned or recessed from time to time for any reason by the chairman of the meeting to another place or time, without regard to the presence of a quorum.

(b) Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes of Outstanding Voting Shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of Directors at any annual or special meeting of Members. Cumulative voting for the election of Directors is prohibited.

(c) All matters (other than the election of Directors and non-binding advisory votes described below) submitted to Members for approval shall be determined by a majority of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively by Members holding Outstanding Voting Shares unless a greater percentage is required with respect to such matter under the TBOC, under the rules of any National Securities Exchange on which the Shares are listed for trading, or under the provisions of this Agreement, in which case the approval of Members holding Outstanding Voting Shares that in the aggregate represent at least such greater percentage shall be required.

(d) In non-binding advisory matters with more than two possible vote choices, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the Outstanding Voting Shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter shall be the recommendation of the Members.

Section 14.7 Conduct of a Meeting; Member Lists.

(a) The Board of Directors shall have full power and authority concerning the manner of conducting any meeting of the Members, including the determination of Persons entitled to vote, the existence of a quorum, the satisfaction of the requirements of this Article XIV, the conduct of voting, the validity and effect of any proxies and the determination of any controversies, votes or challenges arising in connection with or during the meeting or voting. The Board of Directors may make such other rules and regulations consistent with applicable Law and this Agreement as it may deem advisable concerning the conduct of any meeting of the Members, including regulations in regard to the appointment of proxies, the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination of proxies and other evidence of the right to vote. Except to the extent inconsistent with the rules and regulations adopted by the Board of Directors, the chairman of the meeting shall have the right and authority to convene and recess and/or adjourn (whether or not a quorum is present and for any reason or no reason) the meeting, to prescribe such rules, regulations, and procedures, and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of the chairman of the meeting, are appropriate for proper conduct of the meeting and safety of those in attendance. All minutes shall be kept with the records of the Company maintained by the Board of Directors. Such rules, regulations, or procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the chairman of the meeting, may include (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) regulating the opening and closing of the polls for balloting and matters that are to be voted on by ballot; (iii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iv) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to Members entitled to vote at the meeting, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other Persons as the chairman of the meeting shall determine; (v) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; (vi) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants; and (vii) restrictions on the use of any photographic or audio or video recording devices (including cellular phones) at the meeting. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board of Directors or the chairman of the meeting, meetings of Members are not required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure.

(b) No later than the tenth day before each meeting of Members, a complete list of Members entitled to vote at any meeting of Members, arranged in alphabetical order for each class or series of Shares, shall be open to the examination of any Member, for any purpose germane to the meeting, (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting or (ii) during ordinary business hours at the principal place of business of the Company. In the event that the Company determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Company shall take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to Members of the Company.

Section 14.8 Action Without a Meeting. Prior to the Trigger Event, subject to the rights of holders of any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation with respect to such class or series of Shares, on any matter that is to be voted on, consented to or approved by Members, the Members may take such action without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the Members having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Members entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. On and after the Trigger Event, subject to the rights of holders of any class or series of Shares specified in the related Share Designation with respect to such class or series of Shares, any action required or permitted to be taken by the Members of the Company must be taken at a duly held annual or special meeting of Members and may not be taken by any consent in writing of such Members. In order that the Company may determine the Members entitled to express consent to

an action in writing without a meeting prior to the Trigger Event, the Board of Directors may fix a Record Date, which shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the Record Date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no Record Date for determining Members entitled to express consent to Company action in writing without a meeting is fixed by the Board of Directors, (a) when no prior action of the Board of Directors is required by applicable Law or this Agreement, the Record Date for such purpose shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Company in accordance with applicable Law, and (b) if prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable Law or this Agreement, the Record Date for such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

Section 14.9 Voting and Other Rights.

(a) Only those Record Holders of Outstanding Voting Shares on the Record Date set pursuant to Section 14.3 shall be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, a meeting of Members or to act with respect to matters as to which the holders of the Outstanding Voting Shares have the right to vote or to act. All references in this Agreement to votes of, or other acts that may be taken by, the Outstanding Voting Shares shall be deemed to be references to the votes or acts of the Record Holders of such Outstanding Voting Shares on such Record Date.

(b) With respect to Outstanding Voting Shares that are held for a Person’s account by another Person (such as a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or clearing corporation, or an agent of any of the foregoing), in whose name such Outstanding Voting Shares are registered, such other Person shall, in exercising the voting rights in respect of such Outstanding Voting Shares on any matter, and unless the arrangement between such Persons provides otherwise, vote such Outstanding Voting Shares in favor of, and at the direction of, the Person who is the beneficial owner, and the Company shall be entitled to assume it is so acting without further inquiry.

Section 14.10 Proxies and Voting.

(a) On any matter that is to be voted on by Members, the Members may vote in person or by proxy, and such proxy may be granted in writing, by means of electronic transmission or as otherwise permitted by applicable Law. Any such proxy shall be filed in accordance with the procedure established for the meeting. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “electronic transmission” means any form of communication not directly involving the physical transmission of paper that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process. Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the writing or transmission created pursuant to this paragraph may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or transmission could be used, provided that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission.

(b) The Company may, and to the extent required by Law, shall, in advance of any meeting of Members, appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting and make a written report thereof, which inspector or inspectors may include individuals who serve the Company in other capacities, including as Officers, employees, agents or representatives. Inspectors need not

be Members. The Company may designate one or more alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of Members, the Person presiding at the meeting may, and to the extent required by Law, shall, appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. Every vote taken by ballots shall be counted by a duly appointed inspector or inspectors.

(c) With respect to the use of proxies at any meeting of Members, the Company shall be governed by Sections 21.367 through 21.371 of the TBOC and other applicable provisions of the TBOC, as though the Company were a Texas corporation and as though the Members were stockholders of a Texas corporation.

Unless otherwise required by Law, if any Member (A) provides notice pursuant to Rule 14a-19(b) of the Exchange Act and (B) subsequently fails to comply with any requirement of Rule 14a-19 of the Exchange Act or any other rules or regulations thereunder or fails timely to provide the evidence described in the preceding clause (ii), then the Company shall disregard any proxies or votes solicited for such nominees, and such nominations shall be disregarded.

(f) In addition to the foregoing provisions of this Agreement, a Member shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that any references in this Agreement to the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder are not intended to and shall not limit the requirements applicable to nominations or proposals as to any other business to be considered pursuant to Section 14.11(a) or Section 14.11(b) of this Agreement.

(d) To the fullest extent permitted by Law, if any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of Section 15.10(a) is filed in a court other than a court located within the State of Texas (a “Foreign Action”) in the name of any Member, such Member shall be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the State of Texas in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce Section 15.10(a) (an “FSC Enforcement Action”) and (ii) having service of process made upon such Member in any such FSC Enforcement Action by service upon such Member’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such Member.

(e) No Member shall have, and each Member hereby waives, any right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim concerning an internal entity claim (as defined in Section 11.05 of the TBOC). Each Member shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the provisions of this Section 15.10(e).

In addition to the requirements of Section 101.452 of the TBOC, in order to institute a derivative proceeding, a Member must beneficially own a number of Shares of the Company equaling greater than 2.5% of the outstanding Shares of the Company. The provisions of Chapter 101, Subchapter J of the TBOC, other than Section 101.463 of the TBOC, which shall not apply, shall otherwise apply in connection with a derivative proceeding.

Section 15.12 Invalidity of Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected thereby and this Agreement shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, be reformed and construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of a provision, had never been contained herein, and such provisions or part reformed so that it would be valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum extent possible.

Section 15.13 Consent of Members. Each Member hereby expressly consents and agrees that, whenever in this Agreement it is specified that an action may be taken upon the affirmative vote or consent of less than all of the Members, such action may be so taken upon the concurrence of less than all of the Members and each Member shall be bound by the results of such action.
