Delaware Limited Liability Companies
L-3 Afghanistan, LLC, L-3 Army Sustainment LLC, L-3 Centaur, LLC and L-3 Investments, LLC are Delaware limited liability companies.

However, to the extent that the limited liability company agreement seeks to restrict or limit the liabilities of such person, Section 18-1101 of the DE LLCA prohibits it from limiting or eliminating liability for any act or omission that constitutes a bad faith violation of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

TEXAS
Texas Limited Partnerships
Chapter 8 of the Texas Business Organizations Code (“TBOC”) requires a Texas limited partnership to indemnify a general partner, former general partner or delegate thereof against reasonable expenses actually incurred by such person in connection with a proceeding in which such person is a respondent because such person is or was a general partner or delegate thereof if such person is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of the proceeding. In addition, Chapter 8 of the TBOC permits a Texas limited partnership, under certain circumstances and subject to certain requirements and limitations, (a) to indemnify a general partner, former general partner or delegate thereof who was, is, or is threatened to be made a respondent in a proceeding against judgments and expenses that are reasonable and actually incurred by such person in connection with such proceeding, (b) to pay or reimburse reasonable expenses incurred by a present general partner or delegate thereof who was, is, or is threatened to be made a respondent in a proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding, and (c) to indemnify and advance expenses to persons other than present or former general partners, including officers, employees or agents, as provided by the limited partnership’s governing documents or by contract, among other means. Chapter 8 of the TBOC also requires that a limited partnership indemnify an officer to the same extent that indemnification is required under the TBOC for a general partner. Further, Chapter 8 of the TBOC provides that the Texas limited partnership has the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of its existing or former general partners, delegates, officers, employees or agents against liabilities asserted against such person in such capacity or arising out of such person’s status in such capacity. A Texas limited partnership has this power whether or not the limited partnership has the power to indemnify such person against the liability under Chapter 8 of the TBOC.
The partnership agreement of Mustang Technology Group, L.P. provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the general partner shall be indemnified and held harmless by Mustang Technology Group, L.P. from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which the general partner may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its status as a general partner of Mustang Technology Group, L.P., provided that in each case the general partner acted in good faith and in a manner which the general partner reasonably believed to be in the best interests of Mustang Technology Group, L.P. and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe its conduct was unlawful. To the fullest extent permitted by law, expenses (including legal fees) incurred by the general partner in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding shall, from time to time, be advanced by Mustang Technology Group, L.P. prior to the final disposition thereof upon receipt by Mustang Technology Group, L.P. of an undertaking by or on behalf of the general partner to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the general partner is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized.
Mustang Technology Group, L.P. maintains insurance on behalf of the directors and officers of its general partner insuring them against any liability asserted against them in their capacities as directors or officers or arising out of such status.

Item 17. | Undertakings |
Each of the undersigned registrants hereby undertakes:
(a)(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 this 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 this 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) under the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent 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 this registration statement or any material change to such information in this registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) shall 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 Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of this 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.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:
(i) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in this registration statement; and
(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10 (a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in this registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of this registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of this registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into this registration statement or prospectus that is part of this registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in this registration statement or the prospectus that was part of this registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
II-4
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
(b) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of such registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this 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.
