Net Asset Value, Distributions, and Redemptions Section 1. Determination of Net Asset Value, Net Income, and Distributions. Subject to Article III, Section 6 hereof, the Trustees, in their absolute discretion, may prescribe and shall set forth in the By-laws or in a duly adopted resolution of the Trustees such bases and time for determining the per Share net asset value of the Shares of any Series and the declaration and payment of dividends and distributions on the Shares of any Series, as they may deem necessary or desirable.
Determination of Net Asset Value, Net Income and Distributions Subject to applicable federal law including the 1940 Act and Section 3.6 hereof, the Trustees, in their sole discretion, may prescribe (and delegate to any officer of the Trust or any other Person or Persons the right and obligation to prescribe) such bases and time (including any methodology or plan) for determining the per Share or net asset value of the Shares of the Trust or any Series or Class or net income attributable to the Shares of the Trust or any Series or Class, or the declaration and payment of dividends and distributions on the Shares of the Trust or any Series or Class and the method of determining the Shareholders to whom dividends and distributions are payable, as they may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to applicable federal law including the 1940 Act, any dividend or distribution may be paid in cash and/or securities or other property, and the composition of any such distribution shall be determined by the Trustees (or by any officer of the Trust or any other Person or Persons to whom such authority has been delegated by the Trustees) and may be different among Shareholders including differences among Shareholders of the same Series or Class.

Capital Contributions Distributions 17 TABLE OF CONTENTS (continued)
Capital Contributions and Capital Accounts (a) The capital contributions of each party shall be all amounts paid by it pursuant to the Agreement. With respect to each oil and gas property and the related assets subject to the Agreement, each party shall be treated as having contributed to the tax partnership an amount of cash equal to such party's share of any Lease acquisition or other property costs and the tax partnership shall be treated as having purchased such property from the party to whom such amounts are paid. (b) An individual capital account shall be maintained for each party in accordance with the following: (i) The capital account of each party shall, except as otherwise provided herein, be (A) credited by the amount of cash and fair market value of any property contributed to the tax partnership (net of any liabilities assumed by the parties hereto or to which such property is subject at the time of contribution) as provided in subparagraph (a) of this paragraph 4, and (B) credited with the amount of any item of taxable income or gain and the amount of any item of income or gain exempt from tax allocated to such party. (ii) The capital account of each party shall be debited by (A) the amount of any item of tax deduction or loss allocated to such party, (B) such party's allocable share of expenditures not deductible in computing taxable income and not properly chargeable as capital expenditures, including any non-deductible book amortizations of capitalized costs, and (C) the amount of cash or the fair market value of any property (net of any liabilities assumed by such party or to which such property is subject at the time of distribution) distributed to such party (after making the adjustment provided in subparagraph (b)(iii) in this paragraph 4). (iii) Immediately prior to any distribution of property that is not pursuant to a liquidation of the tax partnership, the parties' capital accounts shall be adjusted by assuming that the distributed assets were sold for cash at their respective fair market values as of the date of distribution and crediting or debiting each party's capital account with its respective share of the hypothetical gains or losses resulting from such assumed sales determined in the same manner as gains or losses provided for under paragraphs 4(b)(iv) and 6 for actual sales of such properties. (iv) The allocation of basis prescribed by Section 613A(c)(7)(D) of the Code and provided for in paragraph 6 hereinbelow and each party's depletion deductions shall not reduce such party's capital account, but such party's capital account shall be decreased by an amount equal to the product of (A) the depletion deductions that would otherwise be allocable to the tax partnership in the absence of Section 613A(c)(7)(D) of the Code (computed without regard to any limitations which theoretically could apply to any party) and (B) such party's percentage share of the adjusted basis of the property with respect to which such depletion is claimed (herein called "Simulated Depletion"). The tax partnership's basis in any oil or gas property, as adjusted from time to time for Simulated Depletion, is herein called "Simulated Basis." No party's capital account shall be decreased, however, by Simulated Depletion deductions attributable to any depletable property to the extent such deductions exceed such party's remaining Simulated Basis in such property. Upon the sale or other disposition of an interest in a depletable property, each party's capital account shall be credited with the gain ("Simulated Gain") or debited with the loss ("Simulated Loss") determined by subtracting from its allocable share of the amount realized on such sale or disposition its Simulated Basis, as adjusted by Simulated Depletion. (v) Any adjustments of basis of property provided for under Sections 734 and 743 of the Code and comparable provisions of state law (resulting from an election under Section 754 of the Code or comparable provisions of state law) shall not affect the capital accounts of the parties, and the parties' capital accounts shall be debited or credited as if no such election had been made unless otherwise required by applicable Treasury Regulations. (vi) Capital accounts shall be adjusted, in a manner consistent with subparagraph (b) of this paragraph 4, to reflect any adjustments in items of income, gain, loss or deduction that result from amended returns filed by the tax partnership or pursuant to an agreement with the Internal Revenue Service or a final court decision. (vii) In the case of property contributed to the tax partnership by a party, the parties' capital accounts shall be debited or credited for items of depreciation, Simulated Depletion, amortization and gain or loss with respect to such property computed in the same manner as such items would be computed if the adjusted tax basis of such property were equal to its fair market value on the date of its contribution to the tax partnership, in lieu of the capital account adjustments provided above for such items, all in accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and Treasury Regulation 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g).
Distributions and Adjustments (a) If any Shares vest subsequent to any change in the number or character of the Common Stock of the Company through any stock dividend or other distribution, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of shares or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company or other similar corporate transaction or event such that an adjustment is determined by the Committee to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Agreement, then the Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, in its sole discretion, adjust any or all of the number and type of such Shares. (b) Any additional shares of Common Stock of the Company, any other securities of the Company and any other property distributed with respect to the Shares prior to the date or dates the Shares vest shall be subject to the same restrictions, terms and conditions as the Shares to which they relate and shall be promptly deposited with the Secretary of the Company or a custodian designated by the Secretary.
Allocation of Profits and Losses Distributions Profits/Losses. For financial accounting and tax purposes, the Company's net profits or net losses shall be determined on an annual basis and shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to each Member's relative capital interest in the Company as set forth in Schedule 2 as amended from time to time in accordance with U.S. Department of the Treasury Regulation 1.704-1.
Profits and Losses Distributions Until the admission of additional Members, the Original Member shall be entitled to all allocations of LLC profits and losses and to allocations of distributions.
Determination of Net Asset Value The net asset value per share of each class and each series of Shares of the Trust shall be determined in accordance with the 1940 Act and any related procedures adopted by the Trustees from time to time. Determinations made under and pursuant to this Section 2 in good faith and in accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act shall be binding on all parties concerned.
