For purposes of Subsection (b), in determining the length of service on the board of an individual to whom this subsection applies the following periods of service are excluded: (1) a period of service that results from the individual's appointment to fill an unexpired term that occurs before the individual's first appointment to a full term on the board; or (2) a period of service on the board that is attributable to a term shortened by the individual's appointment as the board's presiding officer under Section 451.502 (e). (c) An individual may serve two terms as presiding officer under Section 451.502 (e)(3), in addition to any service on the board before being appointed under that subsection.
