Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Chapter 8 of the Texas Business Organizations Code
(the “TBOC”) permits a corporation to indemnify directors and officers (as well as certain other persons) against expenses
(including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with
threatened, pending or completed actions, suits or proceedings in which such person is made a party by reason of serving the registrant,
subject to the standards of conduct and determinations set forth in the statute. The TBOC further provides procedures for permissive indemnification
and the required determinations (including by disinterested directors, a board committee, independent counsel or shareholders) and permits
advancement of expenses upon receipt of the required affirmation and undertaking; it also provides for mandatory indemnification when
a person is wholly successful on the merits or otherwise.
The registrant’s Amended and Restated Certificate
of Formation, dated as of July 15, 2025 (the “Certificate of Formation”) and Amended and Restated Bylaws, dated as of July
15, 2025 (the “Bylaws”) provide for indemnification by the registrant of its directors and officers to the fullest extent
permitted by the TBOC, and authorize advancement of expenses and the purchase of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.
Section 7.001 of the TBOC permits a Texas corporation
to limit or eliminate monetary liability of its directors in its certificate of formation, subject to statutory exceptions (including,
among others, breaches of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation
of law, transactions from which the person received an improper personal benefit, or where liability is otherwise provided by statute).
Article VII of the Company’s Certificate of Formation provides that directors and officers are not liable to the registrant for
monetary damages for acts or omissions in such capacity to the fullest extent permitted by the TBOC.
The registrant has entered into separate indemnification
agreements with its directors and officers that provide contractual indemnification and advancement of expenses to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law, and that supplement the rights available under the Certificate of Formation and Bylaws.
The registrant has entered into indemnification
agreements with each of its directors and executive officers to provide contractual indemnification in addition to the indemnification
provided in its certificate of formation. Each indemnification agreement provides for indemnification and advancements by the registrant
of certain expenses and costs relating to claims, suits or proceedings arising from his or her service to the registrant or, at the registrant’s
request, service to other entities, as officers or directors to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. The registrant believes
that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract qualified directors.
The registrant also maintains standard policies
of insurance under which coverage is provided (1) to its directors and officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach
of duty or other wrongful act, while acting in their capacity as directors and officers of the registrant, and (2) to the registrant with
respect to payments which may be made by the registrant to such officers and directors pursuant to any indemnification provision contained
in the registrant’s certificate of formation and bylaws or otherwise as a matter of law.
The foregoing summaries are necessarily subject
to the complete text of Chapter 8 and § 7.001 of the TBOC and to the registrant’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Formation
and Amended and Restated Bylaws, each as amended to date, and the indemnification agreements referred to above, and are qualified in their
entirety by reference thereto.

Item 7. |
Exemption from Registration Claimed. |
Not applicable.
The exhibits required to be filed as part of this
registration statement are listed in the Exhibit Index set forth below immediately preceding the signature page to this registration statement.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or
sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any
prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any
facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed
that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the
form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more
than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the
effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information
with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information
in the registration statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished
to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference
in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability
under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes
that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant
to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration
statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection
with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
