(a) Appointments to the initial board are made as provided by Subchapter C, except that the initial trustees shall agree to stagger their terms, with four members' terms expiring in two years and three members' terms expiring in one year. If the trustees cannot agree on the initial staggering, the trustees shall draw lots to determine the staggering.
