     In addition to the SEC rules referred to in the preceding paragraph, the Company’s Bylaws provide that for business to be properly brought before the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, it must be either (a) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board, (b) otherwise brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board, or (c) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a shareholder of the Company who is a shareholder of record at the time of giving of notice hereinafter provided for, who shall be entitled to vote at such meeting and who complies with the following notice procedures. In addition to any other applicable requirements for business to be brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder of the Company, the shareholder must have given timely notice in writing of the business to be brought before an Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company to the Secretary of the Company. To be timely, notice given by a shareholder must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Company, 333 Clay Street, Suite 4200, Houston, Texas 77002, no later than November 30, 2006.
