+# Appendix A - LLC Operating Agreement
+
+This document, including this Appendix, shall also serve as the
+Operating Agreement of Intrusive Thoughts LLC, a New Mexico limited
+liability company (the "Company"). This agreement is entered into
+effective as of December 25, 2025, by and among the Members as set
+forth in the Company's records.
+
+## Article I. LLC Formation
+
+1. _Name._ The Company's name is Intrusive Thoughts LLC, alternately
+   doing business as the Intrusive Thoughts Creative Collective LC.
+
+2. _Registered Agent._ Registered agent and registered office: Whitman
+   La Torra, 3229 Risner Street, Las Cruces, NM 88011.
+
+3. _Formation._ The Company was formed under the New Mexico Limited
+   Liability Company Act by filing Articles of Organization with the
+   New Mexico Secretary of State on December 19, 2025.
+
+## Article II. LLC Members & Membership Structure
+
+1. _Members._ Membership is limited to individuals elected to the
+   Steering Committee (the "Office") by the Collective Body as
+   described in [Article V](#article-v-elections) of the
+   Constitution. The initial Members and their ownership interests
+   will be recorded in the Company's Membership Register.
+
+2. _Collective Body._ "Collective" means the full membership body,
+   including all individuals who participate in and are recognized by
+   the Collective Body regardless of whether they are recorded on the
+   Company's Membership Register.
+
+3. _Collective Ownership._ All capital contributions, property, and
+   intellectual property of the Company are owned collectively by the
+   Collective. Each person who is a member of the Collective holds
+   collective ownership rights as provided in this Agreement. The
+   Membership Register will record persons who are formal LLC Members
+   for regulatory and tax purposes, but such registration does not
+   alter or diminish the Collective's collective ownership rights.
+
+4. _Member Rights._ Each Member has the rights set out in the
+   Agreement, the Company's records, and applicable law. Membership
+   interests are not freely transferable.
+
+5. _Transfer of Membership Interests._ Membership and membership
+   interest is rescinded at the end of the Member's term in the
+   Office, upon abdication of the Office, upon recall from the Office,
+   and/or upon that Member's death or incapacitation. Membership and
+   membership interest passes to individuals elected to the Office
+   upon the official announcement of election results.
+
+## Article III. Tax Treatment
+
+The Company shall be taxed as a multi-member LLC unless the Collective
+approves an alternate election. The Steering Committee will cause
+timely tax filings and distribution of Schedule K-1s or equivalents.
+
+## Article IV. Indemnification; Liability
+
+1. _Indemnification._ The Company will indemnify Members and officers
+   to the fullest extent permitted by New Mexico law for actions taken
+   in good faith and within the scope of their authority.
+
+2. _Insurance._ The Company may purchase liability insurance and
+   directors/officers insurance as approved by the Collective.
+
+## Article V. Dissolution; Winding Up
+
+1. _Events._ The Company may be dissolved by the procedure described in
+   [Article IX](#article-ix-dissolution) of the Constitution, or other
+   events required by law.
+
+2. _Winding Up._ Upon dissolution, the former members of the Steering
+   Committee prior to dissolution (or a liquidator appointed by the
+   Collective) will wind up affairs, pay creditors, and distribute
+   remaining assets to Members pro rata or as otherwise agreed by the
+   Collective, after satisfying liabilities and obligations.
+
+## Article VI. Dispute Resolution
+
+1. _Internal Resolution._ Members will first attempt mediation within
+   the Collective to resolve disputes.
+
+2. _Binding Arbitration._ If unresolved within 60 days, disputes will
+   be resolved by binding arbitration under the rules of the American
+   Arbitration Association in New Mexico, unless Members unanimously
+   choose litigation.
+
+## Article VII. Miscellaneous
+
+1. _Governing Law._ This Agreement is governed by New Mexico law.
+
+2. _Severability._ Invalid provisions will not affect remaining
+   provisions.
+
+3. _Notices._ Notices delivered to Members at addresses in the
+   Membership Register are effective upon delivery.
+
+4. _Entire Agreement._ This Agreement, Articles of Organization, and
+   any consented amendments constitute the entire agreement among the
+   Members.
