THIS AGREEMENT OF LIMITED LIABILITY PARTNERSHIP, effective as of

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:

1. Formation. The undersigned hereby form a General Partnership (the


“partnership”) in, and in accordance with and subject to the laws of the State
of Kansas.

2. Name. The name of the partnership shall be the Tiger Investment Group.

3. Term. The partnership shall begin on November 1999, and shall continue
until December 31 of the same year and thereafter from year to year unless
earlier terminated as here and after provided.

4. Purpose. The only purpose of the partnership is to invest the assets of the
partnership solely in stocks, bonds, and other securities (“securities”) for the
education and benefit of the partners.

5. Meetings. Periodic meetings shall be held as determined by the partnership.

6. Capital Contributions. The partners may make capital contributions to the


partnership on a monthly basis in such amounts as the partnership determines.

7. Value of the Partnership. The current value of the assets of the partnership,
less the current value of the liabilities of the partnership (here and after
referred to as “value of the partnership”) shall be determined as of regularly
scheduled date and time (“Valuation date”) preceding the date of each
periodic meeting determined by the Group.

8. Capital Accounts. A capital account shall be maintained in the name of each


partner. Any increase or decrease in the value of the partnership on any
valuation date shall be credited or debited, respectively, to each partner’s
capital account in proportion to the sum of all partner capital accounts on that
date. Any other method of valuating each partner’s capital account may be
substituted for this method, provided herein. Each partner’s capital
contribution to, or capital withdrawal from, the partnership, shall be credited,
or debited respectively, to that partner’s capital account.

9. Management. Each partner shall participate in the management and conduct


of the affairs of the partnership. Each partner shall have equal voting power in
all decisions made.
10. Sharing of Profits and Losses. Net profits and losses of the partnership shall
inure to, and be borne by, the partners in proportion to the value of each of
their capital accounts.

11. Books of Accounts. Books of account of the transactions of the partnership


shall be kept and at all times be available and open to inspection and
examination by any partner.

12. Annual Accounting. Each calendar year, a full and complete account of the
condition of the partnership shall be made to the partners.

13. Bank Account. The partnership may select a bank for the purpose of opening
a bank account. Funds in the bank account shall be withdrawn either by
checks signed by either the President, Treasurer, or advisor, or electronic
withdrawal to our brokerage account.

14. Broker Account. None of the partners of this partnership shall be a broker.
However, the partnership may select a broker and enter into such agreements
with the broker required for the purchase or sale of securities. Securities
owned by the partnership shall be held in the partnership name unless another
name shall be designated by the partnership.

Any corporation or transfer agent called upon to transfer any securities to or


from the name of the partnership shall be entitled to rely on instructions or
assignments signed by any partner without inquiry as to the authority of the
person(s) signing such instructions or assignments, or as to the validity of any
transfer to or from the name of the partnership.

At the time of a transfer of securities, the corporation or transfer agent is


entitled to assume (1) that the partnership is still in existence, and (2) that this
Agreement is in full force and effect and has not been amended unless the
corporation or transfer agent has received written notice to the contrary.

15. No Compensation. No partner shall be compensated for services rendered to


the partnership, except reimbursement of expenses.

16. Additional Partners. Additional partners may be admitted at any time after
attending one meeting upon the two-thirds consent of all the general partners.

A. Transfers of Trust. A general partner may, after giving written notice to


the other general partners, transfer his interest in the partnership to
revocable living trust of which he is the grantor and sole trustee.

B. Removal of a Partner. Any partner may be removed by agreement of


two-thirds of the general partners. Written notice of a meeting where
removal of a partner is to be considered shall include a specific reference
to this matter. The removal shall become effective upon payment of the
value of the removed partner’s capital account, which shall be in
accordance with the provisions of full withdrawal of a partner noted in
paragraphs 18 and 20. The vote action shall be treated bas receipt of
request for withdrawal.

17. Termination of Partnership. The partnership may be terminated by


agreement of two-thirds of the general partners. Written notice of the meeting
where termination of the partnership is to be considered shall include a
specific reference to this matter. The partnership shall terminate upon a two-
thirds vote of all general partners. Written notice of the decision to terminate
the partnership shall be given to all the general partners. Payment shall then be
made of all the liabilities of the general partnership and a final distribution of
the remaining assets in cash, and shall promptly be made to the general
partners or their personal representatives in proportion to each general
partner’s capital account.

18. Voluntary Withdrawal (Full) of a Partner. Any partner may withdraw all of
the value of his capital account in the partnership on a specified date agreed
by the partners at graduation. The partnership shall continue as a taxable
entity. A partner withdrawing their account before graduation will be imposed
a $100 fee and must cover any transactional costs associated with their
withdrawal.

In making payment, the value of the partnership as set forth in the valuation
statement prepared for the first meeting following the meeting at which
written notice is received from a partner requesting full withdrawal, will be
used to determine the value of the partner’s capital account.

The partnership shall pay the partner who is withdrawing the value of his
capital account in the partnership in accordance with paragraph 20 of this
Agreement.

If a partner drops out of Fort Hays State University and fails to graduate, the
partner will be required to pay a $100 fine plus transaction costs.

If a partner transfers to a different school and requests withdrawal of his or her


capital account, they will be allowed to do so. The partner withdrawing must
pay transaction costs incurred. If the partner chooses not to withdraw, they
will become a nonvoting partner. They will be allowed to contribute to the
fund with respect to the rules of nonvoting partners.

19. Death or Incapacity of a General Partner. In the event of the death or


incapacity of a general partner (or the death or incapacity of the grantor and
sole trustee of a revocable living trust, if such trust is a general partner
pursuant to paragraph 16A hereof), receipt of notice of such an event shall be
treated as notice of full withdrawal.

20. Terms of Payment. In the event of early withdrawal, payment will be made
in cash.

Where cash is transferred, the partnerships shall transfer to the partner (or
other appropriate entity) withdrawing all of his interest in the partnership, an
amount equal to the value of the capital account being withdrawn, less the
$100 fee and the actual cost to the partnership of selling securities to obtain
cash to meet the withdrawal. The amount being withdrawn shall be paid
within one month after the valuation date used in determining the withdrawal
amount.

For those partners withdrawing their accounts upon graduation, the


partnership will set the official date of withdrawal. Upon this date, a valuation
statement will be prepared and the withdrawing partners will be paid the value
of their account within one month of this date.

When graduated partners who have elected to stay in the partnership decide
they want to withdraw their account, they must send a letter stating their
withdrawal to either the President or Sponsor of the Tiger Investment Group.
The President will then announce the withdrawal at the next general partner
meeting. This meeting date will be used as the valuation date for the
withdrawing account. The value of the account will be figured and full value
of the account will be paid to the partner within one month of the valuation
date.

21. Forbidden Acts. No partner shall:

A. Have the right or authority to bind or obligate the partnership to any extent
whatsoever with regard to any matter outside this scope of the partnership
purpose.

B. Except as provided in paragraph 16A, without the unanimous consent of


all the other partners, assign, transfer, pledge, mortgage, or sell all or part
of his interest in the partnership to any other partner or other person
whomsoever, or enter into any agreement as a result of which any person
or persons not a partner shall become interested with him in the
partnership.

C. Purchase an investment for the partnership where less than the full
purchase price is paid for the same.

D. Use the partnership, name, credit or property for other than partnership
purposes.
E. Do any act detrimental to the interest of the partnership or which would
make it impossible to carry on the purpose of the partnership.

This Agreement of Partnership shall be binding upon the respect of heirs, executors,
trustees, administrators and personal representatives of the partners.

The partners have caused the Agreement of Partnership to be executed on the dates
indicated below effective as of the date indicated above.

Signed by all General Partners
