iii. By selecting to use the proxy/ballot as a proxy, you are designating a
representative to vote on your behalf and directing the proxy holder how to exercise your vote.
The person designated as the proxy holder must be present at the Annual Meeting on April 28,
2014 and must vote the proxy. If you choose to use the proxy/ballot as an absentee ballot, please
be aware that you are casting your vote already and you will not be voting by proxy at the
Annual Meeting. Therefore, choose your selection carefully if you choose to use the proxy/ballot
to vote via proxy.

iv. The proxy included with this Notice allows you to indicate on the proxy how
your proxy holder will vote. Accordingly, please carefully follow the instructions on the proxy.
If you provide the proxy to your proxy holder and do not indicate how the proxy should be
voted, the proxy holder will vote on your behalf and may cast your vote as the proxy holder so
chooses. Failure to correctly fill-out the proxy can result in the following:

EXAMPLE 1: Assume there are four Board positions to be filled by the election.
Owner provides proxy, but only 1 individual is selected by the member. Proxy holder
must vote for the individual indicated, but may select other individuals of the proxy
holders choosing for the other position.

EXAMPLE 2: Owner provides proxy, but fails to select any individuals for any of the
board vacancies. Proxy holder may select an individual of the proxy holders choosing
for all other positions.

EXAMPLE 3. Owner provides a proxy, but selects more than one proxy holder. Proxy
is invalid.

EXAMPLE 4: Owner provides a proxy, but fails to designate a proxy holder. Proxy is
invalid.

EXAMPLE 5: Owner provides a proxy, but fails to execute and date proxy. Proxy is
invalid.

3. One vote shall be accepted per Lot.

4. A member who signs the proxy/ballot may revoke it at any time before it is voted, and if a
member signs/casts more than one proxy/ballot, the later proxy/ballot shall revoke the earlier one. If a
member signs/casts a proxy/ballot and then attends and votes in person at the Annual Meeting, the
proxy/ballot will be automatically revoked.

5. Any of the following conditions will result in a voided or not voted proxy/ballot, unless
otherwise provided below:
- if the proxy/ballot is not signed and dated;
- if the proxy/ballot is not completed (See Item 2(b) above for voting by proxy exceptions);
- if the proxy/ballot is mailed or submitted electronically, and not received within the time periods
set forth in these instructions; or
- if the member signing the proxy/ballot attends the meeting to vote in person on any matter to be
voted upon at such meeting.

If any of the above is unclear, please contact Steiner Ranch Community Associations at (512) 266-7553,
(Attn: Scott Selman) for clarification.
