On July 23, 2004, Plains All American GP LLC, the general partner of the general partner of Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (PAA), amended its limited liability company agreement (the "LLC Agreement") to expand its board of directors from seven members to eight. As amended, the LLC Agreement provides that the mechanism for determining the constituency of the Board remains the same except that three independent directors, rather than two, are elected by majority vote of the owners of Plains All American GP LLC. On July 26, 2004, Plains Holdings Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Plains Resources Inc.) designated Mr. David N. Capobianco as a director. Mr. J. Taft Symonds, the previous designee of Plains Holdings Inc., was elected by majority vote of the members of Plains All American GP LLC to fill the vacancy created by the expansion of the board.
Mr. Capobianco is a member of the Board of Vulcan Energy Corporation and a Managing Director of Vulcan Capital, an affiliate of Vulcan Inc., where he has been employed since April 2003.
