`The company's founder, Russ
`Rutledge is one of the original
`pioneers in fiberglass sucker rod
`technology and is a long-time Big
`Spring resident. Mr. Rutledge and
`others developed the first long-
`term success of this technology in
`1978 with the founding of Fiberflex,
`Inc. Mr. Rutledge later founded
`Fiberglass Technologies, Inc. in
`1985. This Company began by
`refurbishing and selling existing
`fiberglass rods which were refitted
`with a newly developed, patented
`end-fitting. Fiberglass Technologies,
`Inc. later acquired Fiberflex, Inc.
`and formed the company known as

`ionships
`developed from over 30 years of
`innovation in the industry, Mr.
`Rutledge began developing and
`testing a new, cutting edge end-
`fitting design in late 2010. With the
`successful development of the new
`end-fitting design, Mr. Rutledge
`formed R2R and D, LLC on May 26,
`2011 and began the process of
`starting a new company. In October
`of 2011, the first rods were
`produced in the new Big Spring
`facility. The Company has chosen to
`brand the new rod "SUPEROD®"
`because the quality, strength, and
`durability far exceed any other rod
`in the market and is advertised as
`"The final rod you will ever need."
`SUPEROD® is committed to
`building the finest product possible
`while offering the best service in
`the industry. Because SUPEROD®
`believes in our people and the
`product we produce, our fiberglass
`sucker rod has a two year
`warranty, the longest warranty in
`the industry.
