Sections 8.101 and 8.105 of the TBOC permits indemnification of directors and officers of corporations under certain conditions and subject to certain limitations and, under certain circumstances, requires such indemnification. The TBOC provides further that a provision for indemnification of a director, whether contained in the certificate of formation, the bylaws, a resolution of shareholders or directors, an agreement, or otherwise, is valid only to the extent it is consistent with Section 8.101 of the TBOC, as limited by the certificate of formation, if such limitation exists.

Item 4.
Description of Securities
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
The validity of the issuance of the Common Stock being registered hereby has been passed upon for the Registrant by Tara D. Mackey, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary of the Registrant.
Ms. Mackey is paid a salary by the Registrant, is a participant in various employee benefit plans offered to employees of the Registrant generally, and is eligible to receive stock and other awards granted by the Company under the 2023 Plan. As of the date of this Registration Statement, Ms. Mackey was the beneficial owner of less that approximately 0.1% of the Registrant's outstanding shares of Common Stock.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Sections 8.101 and 8.105 of the Texas Business Organizations Code (the "
TBOC
") empower a corporation to indemnify its directors and officers and to purchase and maintain liability insurance for directors and officers. Sections 8.101 and 8.105 of the TBOC permits indemnification of directors and officers of corporations under certain conditions and subject to certain limitations and, under certain circumstances, requires such indemnification. The TBOC provides further that a provision for indemnification of a director, whether contained in the certificate of formation, the bylaws, a resolution of shareholders or directors, an agreement, or otherwise, is valid only to the extent it is consistent with Section 8.101 of the TBOC, as limited by the certificate of formation, if such limitation exists. Article X of the Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Formation contains a provision providing for indemnification of directors and officers to the full extent permitted by law. Section 8.01 of the Registrant's Amended and Restated Bylaws contains a provision providing for indemnification to the full extent permitted by law. Additionally, Article IX of the Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Formation limits the personal liability of directors of the Registrant to the Registrant or its shareholders for monetary damages for an act or omission in such director's capacity as a director, except that such Article IX does not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for (i) a breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its shareholders; (ii) an act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) a transaction from which such director received an improper benefit, whether or not the benefit resulted from an action taken within the scope of such director's office, (iv) an act or omission for which the liability of such director is expressly provided for by statute, or (v) an act related to an unlawful stock purchase or payment of a dividend.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
The foregoing summaries are necessarily subject to the complete text of the statutes and the Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Formation and Registrant's Amended and Restated Bylaws referred to above and are qualified in their entirety by reference thereto.

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;

, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission 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 Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act 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 Commission 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.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Fort Worth, State of Texas, on the 11
