On July 12, 2013, Relators Alfaro Oil & Gas, LLC, Pinnacle Partners Financial
Corporation and Brian Alfaro filed a petition for writ of mandamus. On July 22, 2013, Relators
filed a motion for stay of the sanctions order pending a ruling on the mandamus petition. The
court has considered the petition for writ of mandamus and is of the opinion that Relators are not
entitled to the relief sought. Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus and the motion to
stay the sanctions order are DENIED. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). The court’s opinion will issue
at a later date.

It is so ORDERED on July 31, 2013.
