                      ATTORNEY FOR APPELLEE
TO THE HONORABLE TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS:

         Citizens State Bank (“Appellee” or “CSB”) supplements its original brief as

follows:

         1.     CSB filed its original motion for summary judgment and supporting

evidence on August 27, 2013 (I CR 75-100 and II CR 102-264). American Dream

Team (“ADT”) thereafter amended its petition three (3) times (III CR 266-272; III

CR 464-473; III CR 491-501). CSB’s amended motion for summary judgment

followed to address ADT’s newly plead claims. At that time, CSB also

supplemented its summary judgment evidence in support of its claim for attorneys’

fees. (III CR 505-532, 533-558).

         2.     References in Appellee’s Brief1 to the Affidavit of Scott A. Ritcheson

regarding attorneys’ fees awarded by the trial court are hereby supplemented to

also include the following parts of the record:

         a.  A complete copy of the original affidavit in support of motion for
         summary judgment filed on August 27, 2013 (II CR 112-119; Tab 28, Supp
         APPX 166 to 174); and

         b.    A complete copy of the supplemental affidavit in support of motion
         for summary judgment filed on December 20, 2013 (IV CR 538-548; Tab 29
         Supp APPX 175 to 186).
