WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Company was formed on April 28, 2017, upon execution and filing of its Articles of Organization with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of California; and

WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to adopt this Agreement in order to provide for the regulation and management of the Company and to set forth the respective rights, duties and obligations of the Member(s) and the Manager(s) in connection therewith;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. Formation of the Company; Initial Member. The Company was formed under and shall be operated in accordance with the California Revised Uniform Liability Company Act in the California Corporations Code, Section 17701 et seq., as the same may be amended from time to time (the “Act”). To the extent this Agreement conflicts with the Company’s Articles of Organization, this Agreement shall govern and control to the extent permitted by law.

Section 2. Member Interest. The “Member Interest” of each Member shall be the percentage set forth opposite such Member’s name on Exhibit A hereto. The Member Interests shall be adjusted from time to time as additional capital contributions are made by the Members, and as otherwise appropriate, so that the Member Interest of each Member shall be equal to the total capital contributions made by such Member over the total capital contributions made by all Members to the Company. From time to time the Manager shall amend Exhibit A as necessary to reflect the Member Interests and aggregate capital contributions of the Members.

Section 3. Place of Business, Registered Office and Registered Agent. The principal place of business of the Company shall be 1450 Lake Robbins Dr., Suite 430, The Woodlands, Texas 77380.

The Manager may from time to time delegate to one or more individuals (each an “Officer”) any portion of its authority granted hereunder and under the Act as the Manager deems appropriate. Each Officer shall hold office until such Officer’s death, incapacity, resignation or removal or until the appointment of a successor. An Officer may be removed as an Officer by the Manager at any time with or without cause. An Officer may resign as an Officer at any time by communicating his resignation to the Manager, orally or in writing.

Section 8. Exculpation and Indemnification. No Member, Manager or Officer shall be liable to the Company or any other person or entity for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such person in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such person by this Agreement, except that a Member, Manager or Officer shall be liable for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such person’s willful misconduct. To the full extent permitted by applicable law, each Member, Manager and Officer shall be entitled to defense and indemnity from the Company for any loss, damage or claim suffered by or asserted against such Member, Manager or Officer by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such person in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such person by this Agreement.
