  • Rights and Duties of the Board of Managers (a) The Company is a manager-managed limited liability company.

The Persons constituting the Board (each, a “Manager”) will be (i) the “managers” of the Company for all purposes under the Act and (ii) the Board for all purposes under this Agreement. The Board will have the power to act only by a majority of the Managers in accordance with the provisions and in the manner specified herein. A person does not need to be a Member to serve on the Board. The Board will initially consist of three members and shall initially consist of, Nxxxx Xxxxxxx, Jxxx Xxxxxxxxx and Exx Xxxxxxxxx as the Independent Manager, who shall serve until they resign or are replaced by a majority of the Board, and new members of the Board shall be appointed by a majority of the Board. Provided, however, the Members holding 66 2/3% of the Voting Shares can vote to remove and replace a Manager for “Cause” in accordance with Section 2.9. The size of the Board may be increased, including, without limitation, in connection with forming a Special Committee, or decreased from time to time by action of the Board. (b) The Company shall have at least one Independent Manager serving as one of the members of the Board. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Independent Manager shall consider only the interests of the Company in acting or otherwise voting on the matters set forth in this Article 2. The Independent Manager shall act where other Managers are excluded from voting on certain matters involving a direct or indirect conflict of interest between any Manager on the one hand and public investors on the other hand. The prior consent of the Independent Manager shall be required to appoint a second Independent Manager for the purpose of serving on a Special Committee. All right, power and authority of the Independent Manager shall be limited to the extent necessary to exercise those rights and perform those duties specifically set forth herein and the Independent Manager shall have no authority to bind the Company. (c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or as required by the Delaware Act, the Board shall have complete and exclusive discretion in the management and control of the affairs and business of the Company, and shall possess all powers necessary, convenient or appropriate to carrying out the purposes and business of the Company, including doing all things and taking all actions necessary to carry out the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Board shall have, and shall have full authority in its discretion to exercise, on behalf of and in the name of the Company, all rights and powers of a “manager” of a limited liability company under the Delaware Act necessary or convenient to carry out the purposes of the Company Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Board or Persons designated by the Board, including officers and agents (including the Administrator) appointed by the Board, will be the only Persons authorized to execute documents which will be binding on the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, but subject to any specific provisions hereof granting rights to one (1) or more Members (e.g., the right of Masterworks Gallery, LLC to designate Board members), the Board will have the power to perform any acts, statutory or otherwise, with respect to the Company (including with respect to any Subsidiary of the Company) or this Agreement, which would otherwise be possessed by the Members under Delaware law, and the Members will have no power whatsoever with respect to the management of the business and affairs of the Company (including with respect to any Subsidiary of the Company) except as expressly provided herein. (d) The Company shall enter into an administrative services agreement with Masterworks Administrative Services, LLC (the “Administrator”) in form and substance as reasonably determined by the Initial Member (the “Administrative Services Agreement”). The Board has authorized the Administrator to administer all day to day operations of the Company. Any amendment to the Administrative Services Agreement that would be adverse or detrimental to the interests of members of the Company must be approved by holders of a majority of voting shares. Any termination of the Administrative Services Agreement will require the prior written consent of Masterworks Gallery, LLC. Any change in the vesting provisions of Class A shares granted to the Administrator pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement which have the purpose or effect of accelerating the vesting date to an earlier date, shall require the consent of holders of a majority of the Class A shares eligible to vote on such matter, provided, however, that shareholder consent shall not be required for an acceleration of the vesting date upon an Approved Sale of the Painting. An “Approved Sale” is a sale of the Painting that is approved in writing in advance by a Special Committee, provided that such approval contains an affirmative representation by such Special Committee that such approval (i) is given freely without influence or direction by or from the Company, the Administrator or any of their respective affiliates (ii) that the members of the Special Committee have no direct or indirect financial interest in such sale transaction (other than an indirect financial interest due solely to ownership of securities in an affiliate of the Administrator representing less than 1% of the outstanding equity securities in such affiliate) and (iii) confirms that the Special Committee has determined that such sale is in the best interests of the shareholders unaffiliated with the Administrator. (e) Subject to the terms and conditions herein, all decisions regarding the management and operations of the Company shall be made by the Board, provided, however, that the Administrator shall have all power and authority to take any and all actions necessary to effectuate the intent and purpose of the Administrative Services Agreement and the Board may designate any Officers of the Company to have control or authority with respect to one or more decisions or areas of operation, and may include such limitations or restrictions on such power as they may deem reasonable.
