4.4 Manager Discretion. Whenever in this Agreement the Manager is permitted or required to make a decision in its “discretion” or “sole discretion” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, the Manager shall have no duty or obligation (including any fiduciary duty) to consider any interest of or factors affecting some or all the Members so long as the Manager acts in good faith and in a manner which it reasonably believes are in or not opposed to the best interest of the Company. Each Member hereby agrees that any standard of care or duty imposed under the Act or any other applicable law shall be modified, waived or limited in each case as required to permit the Manager to act under this Agreement and to make any decision pursuant to the authority prescribed in this Section 4.4 so long as such action or decision does not constitute gross negligence, reckless conduct, intentional misconduct, intentional disregard of the terms of this Agreement or a knowing violation of law and is reasonably believed by the Manager to be consistent with the overall purposes and objectives of the Company.
