On November 18 2024, the Company entered into
a Joint Venture Agreement (the “JV Agreement”) with Milk & Honey LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Milk &
Honey”), for the purpose of establishing a joint venture to be conducted under the name of Hacienda Olivia Phase III LLC (the “Joint
Venture”) for the purpose of developing and constructing single family homes on twelve (12) acres of land representing 77 lots located
in Hidalgo County, Texas (the “Land”). Each of the Company and Milk & Honey are referred to as a “Joint Venturer”
and collectively are referred to as the “Joint Venturers.” The Company is the manager of the Joint Venture.
Pursuant to the JV Agreement, the Company has
agreed to contribute $10,000 to the Joint Venture as an initial capital contribution, and Milk & Honey has agreed to contribute the
Land to the Joint Venture. The JV Agreement further provides that the Company shall make such other capital contributions required to
enable the Joint Venture to carry out its purposes as the Joint Venturers may mutually agree upon, shall provide construction financing
for the Joint Venture and shall arrange for or provide any financing as may be required by the Joint Venture for carrying out the purposes
of the Joint Venture.
The JV Agreement provides that the Company will
have a 60% interest and Milk & Honey will have a 40% interest in the Joint Venture. In addition, it provides that Milk & Honey
will receive $39,000 for each lot of land sold by the Joint Venture, and that after the payment of such amount, net profits of the Joint
Venture will be distributed 50% to the Company and 50% to Milk & Honey, and that all losses and disbursements in acquiring, holding
and protecting the business interest and the net profits of the Joint Venture will be paid by the Joint Venturers, in the ratio which
the contribution of each Joint Venturer bears to the ownership interest in the Joint Venture.
The JV Agreement provides that the following powers
may be exercised only upon the mutual consent of the Joint Venturers: (i) the power to borrow money on the general credit of the Joint
Venture in any amount, or to create, assume, or incur any indebtedness to any person or entity; (ii) the power to make loans in any amount,
to guarantee obligations of any person or entity, or to make any other pledge or extension of credit; (iii) the power to purchase or otherwise

upon any property or assets of the Joint Venture; (vi) the power to spend any renovation or remodeling funds or to make any other expenditures
except for routine day-to-day maintenance and operation of the Joint Venture.
Pursuant to the JV Agreement, in the event the
Joint Venturers are divided on a material issue and cannot agree on the conduct of the business and affairs of the Joint Venture, a deadlock
shall be deemed to have occurred in which event one Joint Venturer (the “Offeror”) may elect to purchase the Joint Venture
interest of the other Joint Venturer (the “Offeree”) at a price calculated based on the Offeree’s percentage interest
in a total purchase price for all of the assets of the Joint Venture. The JV Agreement provides that the Offeror must notify the Offeree
in writing of the offer to purchase, state the total purchase price for all of the assets of the Joint Venture, and the price offered
for the Offeree’s Joint Venture interest expressed as Offeree’s percentage interest in the Joint Venture assets multiplied
by the total purchase price for all of the assets of the Joint Venture. The Offeree shall then have the right to buy the interest of the
Offeror at the designated price and terms, or to sell the Offeree’s interest to the Offeror at the designated price and terms, whichever
the Offeree may elect.
On November 18, 2024, the Company entered into

profits of the Second Joint Venture will be distributed 50% to the Company and 50% to Milk & Honey, and that all losses and disbursements
in acquiring, holding and protecting the business interest and the net profits of the Second Joint Venture will be paid by the Second
JV Joint Venturers, in the ratio which the contribution of each Second JV Joint Venturer bears to the ownership interest in the Second
Joint Venture.
The Second JV Agreement provides that the following

Pursuant to Second JV Agreement, in the event

Joint Venture, a deadlock shall be deemed to have occurred in which event one Second JV Joint Venturer (the “Offeror”) may
elect to purchase the Second Joint Venture interest of the other Second JV Joint Venturer (the “Offeree”) at a price calculated
based on the Offeree’s percentage interest in a total purchase price for all of the assets of the Second Joint Venture. The Second
JV Agreement provides that the Offeror must notify the Offeree in writing of the offer to purchase, state the total purchase price for

of Proprietary and Confidential Information. |

to this Agreement have individually entered into a non-disclosure agreement with the Service Provider and (ii) the Service Provider has

18.1.1.
In connection with the performance of this Agreement, each Party contemplates the disclosure by it of certain Confidential Information
to the other Party. Each Party considers its Confidential Information to be an asset of substantial commercial value, having been developed
at considerable expense, but will disclose such information to the other Party under the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Information (“Receiving Party”) from the disclosing Party (“Disclosing Party”) shall (i) treat all Confidential
Information disclosed by the Disclosing Party as secret and confidential and shall not disclose all or any portion of the Confidential
Information to any other Person, except as provided in Article I, (ii) not use any of such Confidential Information except in the performance

under this Agreement and shall be responsible to ensure that such employees maintain the terms of confidentiality and nonuse as required
in this Agreement. |
| (d) | In
the event that either Party desires to use a third party service provider (“Service Provider”), including, for example,
an engineering design firm or a contract manufacturer, to develop or produce the Product using Technology or Technology Improvements,
all Parties to this Agreement must first enter into at least an acceptable non-disclosure and technology ownership agreement with the

18.1.2.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Confidential Information shall not include any information that: (a) is presently
in the Receiving Party’s possession, provided that such information has not been obtained from the Disclosing Party and that such
possession can be demonstrated by the Receiving Party’s written records; (b) is, or becomes, generally available to the public
through no act or omission of the Receiving Party; (c) is received by the Receiving Party in written form from a third party having no
binding obligation to keep such information confidential; or (d) is required to be disclosed by law, upon the advice of legal counsel.
18.1.3.
Specific Confidential Information shall not be deemed to be available to the public or in the possession of the Receiving Party merely
because it is embraced by more general information so available or in said Receiving Party’s possession, nor shall a combination
or aggregation of features which form confidential information be deemed to be non-confidential merely because the individual features,
without being combined or aggregated, are non-confidential.
18.1.4.
Each of the Parties hereby agrees that all written or other tangible forms of Confidential Information (including any materials generated
by the Receiving Party related to any Confidential Information) shall be and remain the property of its owner and shall be promptly returned
to the owner upon the written request of the owner.
18.1.5.
Neither the Agreement nor the disclosure of any information by the Disclosing Party shall be deemed to constitute by implication
or otherwise, a vesting of any title or interest or a grant of any license, immunity or other right to the Receiving Party with regard
to the Confidential Information. Additionally, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the execution of the Agreement shall not
operate, directly or indirectly, to grant to either Party any rights under any patent, trade secret or know-how now or hereafter owned
by or licensed to the other Party.
18.1.6.
Each Party warrants that it is the rightful owner of the Confidential Information to be disclosed under this Agreement and that it
has the lawful right to make such disclosure.

In the event that the Receiving Party or any of its representatives are requested or required to disclose Confidential Information
pursuant to a subpoena or an order of a court or government agency, the Receiving Party shall (a) promptly notify the Disclosing Party
of the existence, terms and circumstances surrounding the governmental request or requirements; (b) consult with the Disclosing Party
on the advisability of taking steps to resist or narrow the request; (c) if disclosure of Confidential Information is required, furnish
only such portion of the Confidential Information as the Receiving Party is advised by counsel is legally required to be disclosed; and
(d) cooperate with the Disclosing Party in its efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment be
accorded to that portion of the Confidential Information that is required to be disclosed. Because money damages may not be a sufficient
remedy for any breach of this Section of the Agreement by the Receiving Party, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek equitable
relief, including injunction and specific performance, as a remedy for any such breach of this Section. Such remedy shall not be deemed
to be the exclusive remedy for a breach of this Section of the Agreement by the Receiving Party but shall be in addition to all other
remedies available at law or equity to the Disclosing Party. In the event of litigation relating to the Agreement, if a court of competent
jurisdiction determines that the Receiving Party has breached this Section of the Agreement, then the Receiving Party shall be liable
and pay to the Disclosing Party the reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and other reasonable expenses of litigation, including
any appeal therefrom. The Receiving Party further agrees to waive any requirement for the posting of a bond in connection with any such
equitable relief.
| 19. | No
Liability to Third Parties. |
19.1.1.
The debts, obligations and liabilities of either Joint Venturer, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely
the debts, obligations and liabilities of such Joint Venturer, and no other Party shall be obligated for any such debt, obligation or
liability of such Joint Venturer solely by reason of being a party to this Agreement or an equity holder of a JV Company.

the employment of counsel and the payment of all expenses. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and
to participate in the defense of such claim or demand, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified
Party unless the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of such claim or demand.

8-K, to ensure compliance with Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure) and other applicable SEC disclosure requirements.
29.1.5. Any breach of this provision,
including any failure to provide information or cooperate in a timely manner with SGD’s SEC compliance efforts, shall constitute
a material breach of this Agreement. In the event of such breach, SGD shall be entitled to all available remedies at law or equity, including,
but not limited to, immediate termination of this Agreement, damages, and injunctive relief.
30.1.1. Failure on the part of
