Except as set forth in Schedule 7(c), neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is, and to the knowledge of the Company any other party thereto is not, in material default under any Material Contract and no circumstance exists that (with or without notice or the lapse of time) would give any counterparty thereunder or other third party the right to declare a default or exercise any remedy under, or to accelerate the maturity or performance of, or to cancel, terminate or modify, any Material Contract. To the knowledge of the Company, no party to a Material Contract has given notice of termination under any Material Contract (nor indicated any intent not to renew or extend such Material Contract), nor does any such party intend to terminate or abrogate or fail to comply with such party’s obligations under such Material Contract.

(h) Employees. Schedule 7(h) sets forth a listing of the names and positions of each employee of the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries as of the date hereof. The Company has made available information regarding all salary and other material compensation paid to each such employee. To the knowledge of the Company, no key employee or group of employees has any plans to terminate employment with the Company or its subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is a party to or bound by any collective bargaining or similar agreement, nor has it experienced any strikes, claims of unfair labor practices or other collective bargaining disputes related to its business. The Company has no Knowledge of any organizational effort presently being made or threatened by or on behalf of any labor union with respect to the employees of the Company or its subsidiaries.

(i) Benefit Plans. Schedule 7(i) sets forth a list of each material “employee benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)), and all severance, change in control or employment plan, program or agreement, and vacation, incentive, bonus, stock option, stock purchase, and restricted stock plan, program or policy sponsored or maintained by the Company, or any of its subsidiaries, in which the employees of the Company and its subsidiaries participate (collectively, the “Company Plans”). The Company has provided to Element and Celadon a current, accurate description of each Company Plan. Each Company Plan has been established and administered in accordance with its terms, and in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other applicable laws, rules and regulations. Each Company Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that such Plan is qualified under the Code and nothing has occurred that could reasonably be expected to cause the loss of such qualification. No event has occurred and no condition exists that would subject the Company or its subsidiaries, either directly or by reason of their affiliation with any member of their “Controlled Group” (defined as any organization which is a member of a controlled group of organizations within the meaning of Code sections 414(b), (c), (m) or (o)), to any tax, fine, lien, penalty or other liability imposed by ERISA, the Code or other applicable laws, rules and regulations. No Company Plan is subject to Title IV of ERISA, and neither Company, its subsidiaries nor any member of their Controlled Group has at any

time sponsored or contributed to, or has or had any liability or obligation in respect of any “multiemployer plan” (as defined in Section 4001(a)(3) of ERISA). Except as set forth on Schedule 7(i), no Company Plan exists that could result in the payment to any such employee of any money or other property (including any severance payments, bonus or other compensation) or in the acceleration of any other rights or benefits to any such employee as a result of the transactions contemplated herein.

(j) Insurance. The Company maintains insurance coverage for the Company and its subsidiaries as set forth on Schedule 7(j).

(k) Affiliated Transaction. Except as set forth on Schedule 7(k), and other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, there are no contracts or arrangements between the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, any (i) current officer or director of the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries, (ii) individual or entity that owns, directly or indirectly, equity interests in the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries, or (iii) any directors or officers of any entity that owns equity interests in the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries.

(l) Tax. The Company and its subsidiaries do not have any liability (A) for any federal or state income taxes with respect to any tax period or portion thereof ending on or prior to the Closing, (B) for any taxes (other than covered in clause (A)) with respect to any tax period or portion thereof ending on or prior to the Closing (other than any such taxes for which adequate provision has been made under GAAP), or (C) arising out of or relating to the Restructuring, in each case that has not been satisfied at or prior to the Closing. The Company is, and has been at all times since its formation, classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and each subsidiary of the Company is, and has been at all times since formation, classified as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(m) Restructuring. The Company and its subsidiaries do not have any liability arising out of or relating to the Restructuring (as defined in Section 8(a)(i)) that has not been satisfied at or prior to the Closing.

8. Additional Representations and Warranties of Celadon and Element.

(a) Celadon further represents and warrants to Element that:

Simultaneously with the Closing, the Company will have consummated the redemption of all of its issued and outstanding membership interests from the Other Members (including all of its management profits interests) without any obligation of the Company or any of its subsidiaries in connection therewith at any point following the Closing (collectively, the “Restructuring”).

(f) After the date that is one hundred and twenty (120) days following the Closing, Element shall, upon request by the Board (as defined in the LLC Agreement) of the Company, provide to the Company, at Element’s then current market fee rates, services relating to sourcing, negotiating, and arranging for any capital raising initiatives (including any private placement) of the Company as its preferred capital advisor.

Element agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Celadon and its Indemnified Persons from and against all Damages arising from (A) a breach by Element of any of its representations and warranties in Section 5 or 8 hereof, or (B) a breach by Element of any of its covenants or other obligations under this Agreement.

Any claim for indemnification under clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) or (B) of Section 10(a) shall survive until the third anniversary of the Closing. If Element or Celadon provides notice of a claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement prior to the end of the period of survival set forth in this Section 10(b), then the indemnification obligations of the other party for such claim will continue until the claim is fully resolved. In order to be timely given, any such claim must specify in reasonable detail the factual basis of

such claim to the extent then known by the party claiming for indemnification. The waiver of any condition based upon the accuracy of any representation or warranty will not affect the right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based upon such representations and warranties.

11. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware. In any judicial proceeding involving any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, the parties hereto unconditionally accepts the non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or if such jurisdiction or venue is declined by the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, any federal court located in the State of Delaware), and the appellate courts to which orders and judgments thereof may be appealed. In any such judicial proceeding, the parties hereto agree that in addition to any method for the service of process permitted or required by such courts, to the fullest extent permitted by law, service of process may be made by delivery provided pursuant to the directions in Section 18. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND AGREES TO TAKE ANY AND ALL ACTION NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE TO EFFECT SUCH WAIVER.

13. Waivers and Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument executed by all of the parties to this Agreement. Any failure of the parties to this Agreement to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition in this Agreement may be waived by the party entitled to the benefits thereof only by a written instrument signed by the party granting such waiver. No delay on the part of any party to this Agreement in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party to this Agreement of any right, power or privilege hereunder operate as a waiver of any other right, power or privilege hereunder, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder. Unless otherwise provided, the rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the parties to this Agreement may otherwise have at law or in equity. Whenever this Agreement requires or permits consent by or on behalf of a party, such consent shall be given in writing in a manner consistent with the requirements for a waiver of compliance as set forth in this Section 13.

14. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties to this Agreement (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties to this Agreement, and any purported assignment or other transfer without such consent shall be void and unenforceable; provided, however, that (a) a change of control of any party hereto (whether by a purchase of equity interests or all or substantially all assets, merger, consolidation or other reorganization of such party) shall not be considered an assignment and (b) each of Element and Celadon may assign this Agreement, including its rights, interests and obligations hereunder, to one or more of its Permitted Transferees (as defined in the LLC Agreement) without the consent of the other parties to this Agreement; provided, further, that no such assignment shall reduce any liabilities hereunder of Element or Celadon, as applicable.

15. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur to the Company in the event any provision of this Agreement was not performed by Element or Celadon in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions (without posting a bond or other security) to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in addition to any other remedy to which the Company is entitled at law or in equity.

16. Binding Effect; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and each of their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as otherwise provided in Section 10, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or will confer upon any other Person any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

SECTION 8.2 Liability. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, and no Covered Person shall be obligated personally for the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company solely by reason of being a Covered Person. All Persons dealing with the Company shall have recourse solely to the assets of the Company for the payment of debts, obligations or liabilities of the Company.

SECTION 8.3 Exculpation.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, whether express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no Covered Person shall be liable to the Company or any other Member for any losses, claims, demands, damages, liabilities (joint or several), expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or other amounts arising as a result of any act or omission (in relation to the Company, this Agreement, any related document or any transaction or investment contemplated hereby or thereby) of a Covered Person, or for any breach of contract (including breach of this Agreement) or any breach of duties (including breach of fiduciary duties) whether arising hereunder, at law, in equity or otherwise, unless there has been a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that such loss was a result of

such Covered Person’s Disabling Conduct; provided that a Person shall not be a Covered Person by reason of providing, on a fee-for-services basis or similar arm’s-length compensatory basis, agency, advisory, consulting, trustee, fiduciary or custodial services.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Covered Person shall be entitled to rely in good faith on the advice of legal counsel to the Company, accountants, other experts and financial or professional advisors, and each Covered Person will be fully protected in acting or omitting to act in good faith on behalf of the Company or in furtherance of the interests of the Company in reliance upon and in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants, other experts and financial or professional advisors.

SECTION 8.4 Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to, indemnify and hold harmless each of the Covered Persons from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, fines, taxes and interest and penalties thereon (other than taxes based on fees or other compensation received by such Covered Person from the Company), claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings (whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise), costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable and documented legal and accounting fees and expenses, costs of investigation and sums paid in settlement) of any kind or nature whatsoever (collectively, “Claims and Expenses”) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted at any time against such Covered Person in connection with the business or affairs of the Company or its controlled Affiliates or the activities of such Covered Person on behalf of the Company; provided, that a Covered Person shall not be entitled to indemnification hereunder against Claims and Expenses that are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Covered Person’s Disabling Conduct; provided, further, that indemnification hereunder and the advancement of expenses under Section 8.4 shall be recoverable only from the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries or proceeds of insurance, if any, and not from assets of the Members. The Company shall cause its material subsidiaries (as reasonably determined by the Board) to execute a joinder agreeing to assume responsibility for their respective obligations pursuant to this Section 8.4 and Section 8.5.

SECTION 8.5 Advancement of Expenses. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries to, pay the expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses and costs of investigation) incurred by a Covered Person in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding contemplated in Section 8.4 (other than a claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding brought by the Company against a Member for such Member’s material breach or violation of this Agreement) as such expenses are incurred by such Covered Person and in advance of the final disposition of such matter, provided that such Covered Person undertakes to repay such expenses if it is determined by agreement between such Covered Person and the Company or, in the absence of such an agreement, by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 8.4.

SECTION 8.6 Notice of Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by a Covered Person of notice of the commencement of any proceeding against such Covered Person, such Covered Person shall, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against the Company, give written notice to the Board of the commencement of such proceeding, provided

that the failure of a Covered Person to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under Sections 8.4 and 8.5, except to the extent that the Company is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such proceeding is brought against a Covered Person (other than a proceeding by or in the right of the Company) the Company will be entitled to assume the defense of such proceeding; provided, that (i) the Covered Person shall be entitled to participate in such proceeding and to retain its own counsel at its own expense and (ii) in the event of a proceeding by or in the right of the Company, or if the Covered Person shall give notice to the Company that in its good faith judgment, based on written advice of outside counsel, (A) a conflict of interest exists that reasonably could be expected to prejudice the Company's ability to conduct such defense, or (B) certain claims made against it in such proceeding could have a material adverse effect on the Covered Person or its Affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages, the Covered Person shall have the right to control (at its own expense and with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company) the defense of such specific claims with respect to the Covered Person (but not with respect to the Company or any other Member); and provided, further, that if a Covered Person elects to control the defense of a specific claim with respect to such Covered Person, such Covered Person shall not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into a settlement that would require the Company to pay any amounts under Section 8.4 without the prior written consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Except in relation to claims covered by clauses (A) or (B) above, after notice from the Company to such Covered Person acknowledging the Company’s obligation to indemnify and hold harmless the Covered Person and electing to assume the defense of such proceeding, the Company will not be liable for expenses subsequently incurred by such Covered Person in connection with the defense thereof. Without the consent of such Covered Person, the Company will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that (i) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Covered Person of a release from all liability arising out of the proceeding and claims asserted therein, (ii) requires or involves any admission on the part of the Covered Person or (iii) requires the Covered Person to take any action or to forego taking any action. Any decision that is required to be made by the Company pursuant to Section 8.4 or 8.5 or this Section 8.6 shall be made on behalf of the Company by the Board in accordance with Section 7.3.

ARTICLE IX

TRANSFERABILITY OF UNITS

SECTION 9.1 General Transfer Restrictions.

(a) Solely for the purpose of this Article IX and unless otherwise specified, the term of “Member” shall exclude any Management Member.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the other Member, no Member (including any Management Member) shall Transfer all or any part of its Units except in accordance with applicable law and this Article IX.

(c) Commencing on the date that is eighteen (18) months after the date of this Agreement, a Member may Transfer any or all of its Units to a third party which is not a Prohibited Transferee in exchange for cash consideration, subject to compliance with the requirements set forth in Section 9.2.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Units shall be Transferred to a Prohibited Transferee without the approval of the Board. A “Prohibited Transferee” shall mean (i) any Person listed on Schedule E or (ii) any Affiliate of such Person specified in clause (i). In the event any proposed Transfer to a Prohibited Transferee is approved by the Board, (i) such approval shall also apply to Transfers made to such prospective transferee by any Tag Along Sellers and (ii) such Transfer must nevertheless comply with Sections 9.2, 9.3 and 9.5.

(e) Any purported Transfer in violation of this Agreement shall be null and void, and the Company shall not in any way give effect to any such impermissible Transfer.

SECTION 9.2 Right of First Offer.

(a) If any Member (the “Offeror”) proposes to Transfer any or all of such Member’s Units in accordance with Section 9.1 (other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, a Permitted Pledge or any Transfer by a Tagging Member pursuant to Section 9.3), then the Offeror shall furnish to the other Member who is not an Offeror (the “Offeree”), a written notice of such proposed Transfer (an “Offer Notice”).

(b) The Offer Notice will include:

(i) (A) the number of Units proposed by the Offeror to be Transferred (the “Subject Units”), (B) the amount of cash consideration for which the Offeror is proposing to Transfer such Units (the “Offered Price”), (C) the proposed Transfer date, if known and (D) all other material terms and conditions, if any, proposed by the Offeror; and

(ii) an irrevocable offer to the Offeree to purchase the Subject Units at the Offered Price and on the other material terms and conditions specified therein.

(c) The Offeree, if it wishes to purchase Subject Units pursuant to the right of first offer provided by this Section 9.2, shall have the right, within thirty (30) days following the date of delivery of the Offer Notice, to negotiate and enter into a definitive agreement with the Offeror for the purchase of the Subject Units at the Offered Price and on the other material terms in the Offer Notice. If the Offeree does not exercise its right to purchase the Subject Units in compliance with the above requirements, including the time period, or if the Offeree and the Offeror fail to enter into a definitive agreement within the thirty (30) day period, the Offeror shall have the right, subject to the other provisions of this Article IX, not later than one hundred and eighty (180) days after the date of the Offer Notice (as such period may be extended to obtain any required regulatory approvals), to Transfer to a third party that is not a Prohibited Transferee, all of the Subject Units, at a purchase price equal to or greater than the Offered Price, and if any other material terms and conditions are identified in the Offer Notice, on those terms and conditions (or those terms and conditions modified in a manner which are not materially more favorable in the aggregate to the transferee), without any further obligation to the Offeree pursuant to this Section 9.2 (but subject to compliance with Section 9.3). If, at the end of such one hundred and eighty (180) day period (as such period may be extended to obtain any required regulatory approvals) (and subject to the preceding sentence), the Offeror has not completed the Transfer of the Subject Units to a third party as aforesaid, the restrictions on transfer contained herein shall again be in effect with respect to such Units and the Offeror shall comply with this Section 9.2 again if it proposes to Transfer any or all of its Units.

SECTION 9.3 Tag-Along Rights.

(a) Subject to prior compliance with Section 9.2, if any Member (a “Selling Member”) proposes to Transfer any or all of such Member’s Units for cash consideration to any third party that is not a Permitted Transferee or a Prohibited Transferee (a “Proposed Sale”), then the Selling Member shall furnish to the other Member a written notice of such Proposed Sale (the “Tag Along Notice”).

(b) The Tag Along Notice will include:

(i) the material terms and conditions of the Proposed Sale, including (A) the number of Units proposed to be so Transferred, (B) the name and address of the Proposed Transferee (the “Proposed Transferee”), (C) the Offered Price, (D) the fraction, expressed as a percentage, determined by dividing the number of Units to be purchased from the Selling Member by the total number of Units held by the Selling Member (the “Tag Along Sale Percentage”) and (E) the proposed Transfer date, if known; and

(ii) an invitation to the other Member to make an offer (such other Member, if elects to make such an offer being the “Tagging Member”, and, together with the Selling Member, the “Tag Along Sellers”) to include in the Proposed Sale to the applicable Proposed Transferee the Units held by such Tagging Members (not in any event to exceed the Tag Along Sale Percentage of the total number of Units held by such Tagging Member). The Selling Member will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Tagging Member copies of all transaction documents relating to the Proposed Sale promptly as the same become available.

(c) The Tagging Member shall have the right to exercise the tag-along rights provided by this Section 9.3 within ten (10) Business Days following delivery of the Tag Along Notice by delivering a notice (the “Tag Along Offer”) to the Selling Member indicating its desire to exercise its rights and specifying the number of Units it desires to Transfer (not in any event to exceed the Tag Along Sale Percentage of the total number of Units held by the Tagging Member). If the Tagging Member does not make a Tag Along Offer in compliance with the above requirements, including the time period, it shall be deemed to have waived all of its rights with respect to such Proposed Sale, and the Tag Along Sellers shall thereafter be free to Transfer the Units to the Proposed Transferee, for cash consideration, at a per Unit price no greater than the per Unit price set forth in the Tag Along Notice and on other terms and conditions which are not materially more favorable in the aggregate to the Selling Members than those set forth in the Tag Along Notice. In order to be entitled to exercise its right to sell Units to the Proposed Transferee pursuant to this Section 9.3, the Tagging Member must agree to make to the Proposed Transferee the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements as the Selling Member agrees to make in connection with the Proposed Sale and to take or cause to be taken all other actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the Proposed Sale; provided that (x) unless otherwise agreed, a Tagging Member shall not be required to make representations and warranties or covenants or provide indemnities as to any other Member (other than Permitted Transferees of the Tagging Member) and (y) any liability relating to representations and warranties (and related indemnities), covenants or other indemnification obligations regarding the business of the Company in connection with the Proposed Sale shall be shared by the Tagging Member and the Selling Member pro rata in proportion to the number of Units actually being Transferred by each of those Members and in any event shall not exceed the proceeds received by the Tagging Member in the Proposed Sale. Each Tag Along Seller will be responsible for its proportionate share of the costs of the Proposed Sale to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the Proposed Transferee.

(d) The offer of the Tagging Member contained in the Tagging Member’s Tag Along Offer shall be irrevocable, and, to the extent such offer is accepted, the Tagging Member shall be bound and obligated to Transfer in the Proposed Sale on the same terms and conditions, with respect to each Unit Transferred, as the Selling Member, up to such number of Units as the Tagging Member shall have specified in its Tag Along Offer; provided, however, that if the material terms of the Proposed Sale change with the result that the per Unit price shall be less than the per Unit price set forth in the Tag Along Notice, the form of consideration shall be different or the other terms and conditions shall be materially less favorable in the aggregate to the Tag Along Sellers than those set forth in the Tag Along Notice, the Tagging Member shall be permitted to withdraw the offer contained in its Tag Along Offer by written notice to the Selling Member and upon such withdrawal shall be released from its obligations. If there is a Tagging Member, the Selling Member shall not Transfer any Units except at a per Unit price and on other terms and conditions as are not materially more favorable in the aggregate to the Selling Member and its Affiliates than to the Tagging Member and its Affiliates.

(e) The Selling Member shall attempt to obtain the inclusion in the Proposed Sale of the entire number of Units which the Tag Along Sellers requested to have included in the Proposed Sale. However, to the extent the Selling Member is unable to do so, each Tag Along Seller shall be entitled to sell in the Proposed Sale a number of Units that equals to the lesser of

(a) the number of Units such Tag Along Seller has offered to sell in the Tag Along Offer (or specified in the Tag Along Notice in the case of the Selling Member) and (b) the number of Units determined by multiplying (A) the number of Units subject to the Proposed Sale by (B) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of Units owned by such Tag Along Seller and the denominator of which is the total Units owned by all Tag Along Sellers (the “Pro Rata Share”). The Selling Member shall notify the Tagging Members of the results of this calculation within two (2) Business Days following receipt by the Tagging Member of the Tag Along Notice.

(f) If the Tagging Member exercises its rights under this Section 9.3, the closing of the purchase of the Units with respect to which such rights have been exercised will take place concurrently with the closing of the sale of the Selling Member’s Units to the Proposed Transferee and the Selling Member shall provide the Tagging Member with at least five (5) Business Days’ prior notice thereof. If the closing to the Proposed Transferee (whether or not a Tagging Member has exercised its rights under this Section 9.3) shall not have occurred by the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days after the date of the Offer Notice provided in accordance with Section 9.2 (as such period may be extended to obtain any required regulatory approvals), the Tagging Member shall be released from its obligation under its irrevocable offer (unless such failure to complete the Transfer was due to the failure of such Tagging Member to perform its obligations under this Section 9.3) and all the restrictions on Transfer contained herein shall again be in effect with respect to such Units and the Selling Member shall comply with Section 9.2 and this Section 9.3 again if it proposes to Transfer any or all of its Units to a third party that is not a Permitted Transferee or a Prohibited Transferee.

(g) The Selling Member shall, in its sole discretion, decide whether or not to pursue, consummate, postpone or abandon any Proposed Sale and the terms and conditions thereof. No holder of Units nor any Affiliate of any such holder shall have any liability to any other holder of Units or the Company arising from, relating to or in connection with the pursuit, consummation, postponement, abandonment or terms and conditions of any Proposed Sale except to the extent such holder shall have failed to comply with the provisions of this Section 9.3.

SECTION 9.4 Other Permitted Transfers.

(a) Transfers to Permitted Transferees. Any Member may at any time, without complying with the restrictions contained in Section 9.2 or 9.3, Transfer all or a portion of its Units to one or more Permitted Transferees (a “Permitted Transfer”). The transferee of Units in a Permitted Transfer shall automatically be admitted as a Substituted Member upon (i) its compliance with this Section 9.4(a), (ii) its execution and delivery to the Company a signature page counterpart to this Agreement and an acceptance of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including such other documents or instruments as may be required to effect the admission in the Company’s reasonable judgment) and (iii) its execution and delivery of an undertaking that if such subsidiary ceases to be wholly owned by such Member, it shall immediately Transfer its Units back to the Member who initially transferred such Units to such subsidiary or another wholly owned subsidiary of such Member. Following any such Permitted Transfer, all rights of the Member provided for herein shall be collectively exercised by the Member and such transferee.

(b) Permitted Pledge. Any Member may at any time, without complying with Section 9.2 or 9.3, pledge all or part of its Units as security to a bona fide debt obligation of such Member, provided that the transferee is not a Prohibited Transferee (a “Permitted Pledge”).

SECTION 9.5 Other Transfer Restrictions.

(a) In addition to any other restrictions on Transfer herein contained, in no event may any Transfer of any Units or Interest by any Member be made:

(i) to any Person who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own an Interest or Units;

(ii) if such Transfer would cause the assets of the Company to become “plan assets” of any benefit plan investor within the meaning of DOL Regulation Section 2510.3-101 or to be regulated under ERISA;

(iii) for as long as the Company is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, if such Transfer would, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, cause any portion of the assets of the Company to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to the Plan Asset Regulations;

(iv) if such Transfer, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, requires the registration of such Units pursuant to any applicable U.S. federal or state or Canadian securities laws;

(v) for so long as the Company is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, unless such transfer will not result in the Company being treated as a “publicly traded partnership,” as such term is defined in Sections 469(k)(2) or 7704(b) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder that is taxable as a corporation as determined by counsel to the Company;

(vi) unless the transferee makes the representations and warranties set forth in Section 14.1;

(vii) if such Transfer subjects the Company to be regulated under the Investment Company Act or the Investment Advisors Act of 1940;

(viii) if such Transfer would result, either directly or indirectly, in the transferor being deemed an affiliate (as defined in 12 C.F.R. § 225.2(a)) of a bank holding company, savings and loan holding company or U.S. depository institution the deposits of which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or otherwise cause the Company to become subject to supervision and regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other U.S. federal banking agency; or

(ix) if such Transfer would require the consent of any federal or state regulatory agency or self-regulatory organization or any foreign equivalent of the foregoing and such consent has not been obtained.

(b) Unless admitted as a Substituted Member, no transferee, whether by a voluntary Transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, shall have rights hereunder.

(c) The Members effecting any Transfer permitted hereunder shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred by the Company in connection with the Transfer.

(d) No Transfer may be made or recorded in the books and records of the Company unless the transferee shall deliver to the Company notice of such Transfer, including a fully executed copy of all documentation and agreements relating to the Transfer and any agreements or other documents required by Section 9.6, including the written agreement (as required pursuant to Section 9.6) of the transferee to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the transferring Member under this Agreement in respect of the Units that are the subject of the Transfer.

(e) Unless approved by the Board, no Member may withdraw from this Agreement except (i) as a result of a permitted Transfer of all of such Member’s Units in accordance with this Article IX and the transferee(s) of such Units being admitted to the Company as a Substituted Member or (ii) upon the dissolution and winding up of the Company.

The Members hereby confirm that damages at law would be an inadequate remedy for a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement and agree that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision hereof, the respective rights and obligations hereunder shall be enforceable by specific performance, injunction or other equitable remedy, but, nothing herein contained is intended to, nor shall it, limit or affect any right or rights at law or by statute or otherwise of a Member aggrieved as against another Member for a breach or threatened breach of any provision hereof, it being the intention by this Section to make clear the agreement of the Members that the respective rights and obligations of the Members hereunder shall be enforceable in equity as well as at law or otherwise and that the mention herein of any particular remedy shall not preclude a Member from any other remedy it or he might have, either in law or in equity.

SECTION 15.13 Table of Contents, Headings and Captions. The table of contents, headings, subheadings and captions contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only, and in no way define, limit or describe the scope of this Agreement or the intent of any provision hereof.

SECTION 15.14 Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendment hereto may be signed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one Agreement (or amendment, as applicable).

SECTION 15.15 Judgment Creditor Liability. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, none of the provisions of this Agreement will be for the benefit of or enforceable by any creditors of the Company or by other third parties. The Members’ liability to judgment creditors will be limited to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Judicial foreclosure and any other remedy that might adversely impact any Interest or any property, assets, or interests now or hereafter owned or held by the Company and any additional property contributed to or acquired by the Company, whether real or personal, as well as improvements developed thereon, are expressly prohibited and are unenforceable in all respects. Any judgment

creditor who obtains a charging order with respect to an Interest will be regarded as an assignee of such Interest under the Act; and as such, during the period for which an Interest is so charged, the judgment creditor will be liable for all taxes, if any, on the income allocable to the charged Interest, and similarly, will enjoy the benefit of any losses allocable to such charged Interest. The Board will issue to the judgment creditor a Schedule K-1 corresponding to the charged Interest until such time as the charging order is removed.
