The Company shall not make any loans to any Member or to any Affiliate of a Member without the prior consent or approval of all of the Members.

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS

4.02 Additional Capital Contributions. From time to time, as deemed necessary by the Manager, and approved by the Members holding a Majority of the Units, the Company shall call for additional Capital Contributions and give written notice thereof to the Members (each, a “Capital Call”). The total amount of each Capital Call shall equal the amount reasonably determined by the Manager as being necessary for the Company to pay the Operating Expenses then due or soon becoming due, first taking into account available cash proceeds from operations and established reserves. Within thirty (30) days of the date of a Capital Call, the Members shall pay to the Company, pro rata according to their ownership of Units, as additional Capital Contributions, a total amount equal to the Capital Call.

4.03 Failure to Pay Capital Contributions. In addition to any other remedies available under this Agreement, the Act, or any other applicable law, if a Member fails to pay when due all or any part of such Member’s portion of any Capital Contribution according to this Article IV, the Manager may request the nondefaulting Members to pay the unpaid amount of the defaulting Member’s Capital Contribution (the “Unpaid Contribution”). To the extent the Unpaid Contribution is contributed by any other Member, the defaulting Member’s ownership of Units shall be reduced and the Units of each Member who makes up the Unpaid Contribution shall be increased, so that each Member owns that number of Units equal to the product of the total number of outstanding Units multiplied by a fraction, the number of which is that Member’s total Capital Contributions and the denominator of which is the total Capital Contributions of all Members. The Manager shall amend Exhibit A accordingly and issue new Unit certificates, if necessary.

4.04 Interest on Capital Contributions. Capital Contributions to the Company shall not earn interest.

4.05 Limitation on Member’s Deficit Make-Up. The Members shall have no obligation to restore any deficit in their Capital Accounts, except as specifically provided by this Agreement.

4.06 Capital Accounts.

(a) Maintenance of Capital Accounts. A separate Capital Account shall be maintained and adjusted for each Member on the books and records of the Company in accordance with the Code and the Treasury Regulations.

(1) Increase. To each Member’s Capital Account there shall be added the amount of any cash and the Value of any property contributed by such Member to the Company (net of liabilities secured by such contributed property that the Company is considered to assume, or take subject to, under Code Section 752), such Member’s distributive share of Profits, any other items in the nature of income or gain that are allocated pursuant to Article V hereof, and the amount of any Company liabilities that are assumed by such Member or that are secured by any Company property distributed to such Member.

(2) Decrease. From each Member’s Capital Account there shall be deducted the amount of cash and the Value of any Company property (net of liabilities secured by the property that the Member is considered to assume, or take subject, under Code Section 752) distributed to such Member pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, such Member’s distributive share of Losses, any other items in the nature of expenses or losses that are specially allocated pursuant to Article V hereof, and the amount of any liabilities of such Member that are assumed by the Company or that are secured by any property contributed by such Member to the Company.

(b) Transfers. In the event any interest in the Company is transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to the extent it relates to the transferred interest in accordance with Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Treasury Regulations.

(c) Revaluation. In the event the Values of the Company assets are adjusted pursuant to the definition of the term “Value” in Article I hereof, the Capital Accounts of all Members shall be adjusted simultaneously to reflect the aggregate net adjustment as if the Company recognized gain or loss equal to the amount of such aggregate net adjustment, and such adjustment shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with Article V hereof.

(d) Interpretation. The manner in which Capital Accounts are to be maintained pursuant to this Section 4.06 is intended to and shall be construed so as to comply with the requirements of Section 704(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

ARTICLE V

ALLOCATIONS

5.01 Profits and Losses. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 5.02 5.03, 5.04, 5.05, 5.06 and 5.07 hereof, Profits and Losses shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to the number of Units owned by the Members as of the first day of the Company’s taxable year. If the number of Units owned by any Member changes during any taxable year of the Company, each Member’s distributive share of Profits and Losses for such year shall be determined by using any permissible method chosen by the Manager that is provided for in Code Section 706 and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder.

5.02 Limitations on Losses and Profit Chargeback.

(a) Allocation of Losses. To the extent the allocation of any Losses to a Member would cause the Member to have an adjusted capital account deficit at the end of any fiscal year of the Company, then such Losses shall not be allocated to such Member, but rather shall be specially allocated to other Members having positive capital account balances in proportion to such positive balances.

(b) Profit Chargeback. To the extent any Losses have been specially allocated to one or more Members in accordance with subparagraph (a) of this Section 5.02, then Profits shall thereafter first be specially allocated to such Members in proportion to the cumulative amount of Losses previously allocated to such Members until the cumulative amount of Profits allocated to such Members under this subparagraph (b) equals the cumulative amount of Losses previously allocated to such Members under such subparagraph (a).

5.03 Qualified Income Offset. If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6) of the Treasury Regulations, then items of Company income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of income, including gross income and gain) shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balance (but only to the extent such deficit balance exceeds the sum of the Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain and the amount of any deficiency that such Member is required to restore in its Capital Account upon the liquidation of the Company) in its Capital Account created by such adjustment, allocation, or distribution as quickly as possible to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704. Any special allocations of items of income or gain pursuant to this Section 5.03 shall be taken into account in computing subsequent allocations of Profits and Losses pursuant to this Article V, so that the net amount of any items so allocated and the Profits, Losses, and other items allocated to each Member pursuant to this Article V shall, to the extent possible, be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member pursuant to the provisions of this Article V if such unexpected adjustment, allocation, or distribution had not occurred.

5.04 Nonrecourse Deductions; Minimum Gain; Minimum Gain Chargeback.

(a) Allocation of Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated pro rata to each Member in accordance with such Members’ proportionate interest in the Profits and Losses of the Company as set forth in Section 5.01.

(b) Minimum Gain Chargeback. If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain for a fiscal year of the Company, then each Member shall be allocated items of income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, for subsequent years) in accordance with Section 1.704-2(f) of the Treasury Regulations.

(1) Nonrecourse Deductions. “Nonrecourse Deductions” shall be determined in accordance with and have the meaning ascribed to such term by Sections 1.704-2(b)(1) and -2(c) of the Treasury Regulations.

(2) Member’s Share of Company Minimum Gain. A Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain shall be determined in accordance with and have the meaning ascribed to such term by Section 1.704-2(g) of the Treasury Regulations.

5.05 Nonrecourse Debt of the Company Where a Member Bears the Economic Risk of Loss.

(a) General Allocation. Any item of loss, deduction, or expenditure described in Code Section 705(a)(2)(B) that is attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated to the Member that bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, in accordance with this Section 5.05.

(b) Determination of Member Nonrecourse Deduction. The amount of Member Nonrecourse Deductions with respect to a Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i) of the Treasury Regulations.

(c) Chargeback of Items of Income and Gain. If there is a net decrease during a fiscal year of the Company in the Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt, then any Member with a share of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such debt at the beginning of such year shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, for subsequent years) equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain.

(d) Member’s Share of Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt. A Member’s share of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i)(5) of the Treasury Regulations.

(e) Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:

(1) Member Nonrecourse Debt. “Member Nonrecourse Debt” means any Nonrecourse Debt of the Company for which any Member (or related person within the meaning of Section 1.752-4(b) of the Treasury Regulations) bears the Economic Risk of Loss.

(2) Nonrecourse Debt. “Nonrecourse Debt” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term by Section 1.752-1(a)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.

(3) Economic Risk of Loss. The determination of whether a Member bears the “Economic Risk of Loss” with respect to any liability of the Company shall be made in accordance with Section 1.752-2 of the Treasury Regulations.

(4) Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain. “Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term by Section 1.704-2(i) of the Treasury Regulations.

5.06 Tax Allocations: Code Section 704(c). In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial Value (computed in accordance with Part (a) of the definition of the term “Value” in Article I hereof); using the “Traditional Method” of making Code Section 704(c) allocations. In the event the Value of any Company property is adjusted pursuant to Part (b) of the definition of the term “Value” in Article I hereof, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Members in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.06 are solely for purposes of federal, state, and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, or other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

5.07 Other Allocation Rules.

(a) Allocations Upon the Admission of Additional Members. In the event additional Members are admitted to the Company pursuant to Section 3.02 hereof on different dates during any fiscal year, the Profits (or Losses) allocated to the Members for each such fiscal year shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to the interest in the Company each holds from time to time during such fiscal years in accordance with Code Section 706, using any convention permitted by law and selected by the Board of Managers.

(b) Items Not Specifically Dealt With. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all items of Company income, gain, loss, deduction, and any other allocations not otherwise provided for shall be divided by allocating such items to each Member in accordance with such Member’s percentages in the Profits and Losses of the Company as set forth in Section 5.01.

(c) Allocations Within Periods. For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses, or any other items allocable to any period, Profits, Losses, and any such other items shall be determined on a daily, monthly, or other basis, as determined by the Board of Managers using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Treasury regulations thereunder.

(d) Allocations Binding on Members. The Members are aware that they are subject to income tax on their share of the Profits and Losses of the Company and they hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article V in reporting their percentage of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

5.08 Construction. The provisions of this Article V (and other related provisions in this Agreement) pertaining to the allocation of items of Company income, gain, loss, deductions, and credits shall be interpreted consistently with the Treasury Regulations issued under Code Section 704, and to the extent unintentionally inconsistent with such Treasury Regulations, shall be deemed to be modified to the extent necessary to make such provisions consistent with the Treasury Regulations.

ARTICLE VI

8.01 Management.

(a) General Authority and Powers. The business and affairs of the Company shall be directed, managed, and controlled by the Manager. The Manager shall have full and complete authority, power, and discretion to, and shall, manage, direct, and control the business, affairs, and properties of the Company, make all decisions regarding the same, and perform any and all acts or activities customary or incident to the Company’s business, all without obtaining the consent of the Members, except as required by Section 8.03 hereof and as required by nonwaivable provisions of applicable law.

No Member shall have any power or authority to bind the Company and no Member shall purport to speak for or act on behalf of the Company, unless such Member has been authorized by the Manager to act as an agent of the Company and then only in accordance with such authorization.

(b) Reliance by Third Parties. Any person dealing with the Company, other than a Member, may rely on the authority of the Manager or any officer of the Company in taking any action that is in the name of the Company without inquiry into the provisions of this Agreement or compliance therewith. Every instrument purporting to be the action of the Company and executed by the Manager or any officer of the Company shall be conclusive evidence in favor of any person relying thereon or claiming thereunder that, at the time of delivery thereof, this Agreement was in full force and effect and that the execution and delivery of that instrument is duly authorized by the Manager and the Company.

8.02 Number, Tenure, and Qualifications. The Company shall have one Manager. The Manager shall so serve until its resignation or removal. The Manager need not be a resident of the State of Delaware or a Member of the Company. The initial Manager of the Company shall be CGI HEALTHCARE OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, LP.

8.03 Limitations on Powers of Manager. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Manager shall have no authority to take any of the following actions on behalf of the Company without obtaining the written consent of all of the Members (which consent will be deemed given by a Member if such Member fails to respond to a request for such consent hereof within thirty (30) days after receipt of such a request):

(a) Sell, finance, convey, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of or refinance all or a substantial portion of the assets of the Company;

(g) Incur any lease (as lessee), conveyance, mortgage or other indebtedness not included in any budget approved by the Members holding a Majority of the Units in excess of $10,000.00 in principal amount in the aggregate or requiring aggregate payments by the Company in excess of $20,000.00 in any year;

(h) Make a loan on behalf of the Company, except for the extension of credit to customers for the purchase of goods or services of the Company in the ordinary course of business of the Company, or cause the Company to guarantee the obligations of another Person;

(i) Incur or enter into any lease, conveyance, mortgage or other agreement or indebtedness on behalf of the Company which requires the personal guarantee of any Member or any Affiliate of any Member;

(j) Settle any claims or lawsuits against the Company (other than negligence cases covered by insurance) or commence or overtly threaten any lawsuit or other legal action on behalf of the Company against a third party;

(k) Do any act which is in contravention of this Agreement or any other agreement to which the Company is a party;

(l) Do any act which would make it impossible to carry on the ordinary business of the Company;

(m) Make an election or take any action that would cause the Company to be treated for federal income purposes as an association taxable as a corporation; or

(n) Except as permitted by this Agreement, take any action that would cause the dissolution of the Company.

8.04 Liability for Certain Acts. The Manager shall perform its managerial duties in good faith, in a manner it reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the Company, and with such care as an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. A Manager who so performs the duties of the Manager shall not be liable to the Company or to any Member for any loss or damage sustained by the Company or any Member, unless the loss shall have been the result of fraud, deceit, gross negligence, willful misconduct or a wrongful taking by the Manager.

8.05 No Exclusive Duty to Company. The Manager shall not be required to manage the Company as its sole and exclusive function, and the Manager may have other business interests and may engage in other activities in addition to those relating to the Company. Neither the Company nor any Member shall have any right, by virtue of this Agreement, to share or participate in such other investments or activities of the Manager or in the income or proceeds derived therefrom. If the Manager complies with the requirements of Section 8.04 hereof, the Manager shall incur no liability to the Company or to any of the Members as a result of engaging in any such other business or venture.

8.06 Delegation of Authority. The Manager may, from time to time, delegate to one or more individuals such authority and duties as the Manager may deem advisable to carry out the day-to-day business of the Company and may enter into contracts with such individuals for such purpose. In addition, the Manager may, from time to time, assign titles (including, president, vice president, secretary and treasurer) to any such individuals selected by the Manager; provided, however, the title “President” shall be reserved for the Manager only. Unless the Manager decides otherwise, if the title is one commonly used for officers of a business corporation, the assignment of such title shall constitute the delegation of the authority and duties that are normally associated with that office, subject to any specific delegation of authority and duties made pursuant to this Section 8.06. Any number of titles may be held by the same individual. Any delegation pursuant to this Section 8.06 may be revoked at any time by the Manager. Persons so delegated under this Section 8.06 need not be residents of the State of Delaware or Members of the Company.

8.07 Bank Accounts. The Manager may from time to time open, maintain, and close bank accounts in the name of the Company, and the Manager shall be the sole signatory thereon, unless all of the Members determine otherwise.

8.08 Indemnity of the Manager, Employees, and Other Agents. The Company shall, to the maximum extent provided by law, indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Manager, to the extent of the Company’s assets, for, from, and against any liability, damage, cost, expense, loss, claim, or judgment incurred by the Manager arising out of any claim based upon acts performed or omitted to be performed by the Company, its Members, the Manager or any of its or their employees or agents in connection with the business of the Company acting in capacity as the Manager, including without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by the Manager in settlement or defense of such claims. The Manager shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether and to what extent the Company will indemnify any employees or other agents of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Manager, or employee or agent of the Company (each, an “Actor”) shall be so indemnified, defended, or held harmless for claims based upon acts or omissions in the breach of this Agreement or which constitute fraud, willful misconduct, or breach of a fiduciary duty to the Company or to the Members. Amounts incurred by an Actor in connection with any action or suit arising out of or in connection with Company affairs shall be reimbursed by the Company if such action or suit does arise in a matter for which indemnification is available under this Section 8.08 (provided that the Company shall in all events advance expenses of defense but only if the Actor undertakes in writing to repay the advanced funds to the Company if the Actor is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.08).

8.09 Resignation. The Manager may resign at any time by giving written notice to the Members of the Company. The resignation of the Manager shall take effect upon receipt of notice thereof or at such later date specified in such notice; and, unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. The resignation of a Manager who is also a Member shall not affect the Manager’s rights as a Member and shall not constitute a withdrawal of a Member.

8.10 Removal. The Manager may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by the affirmative vote of Members holding a Majority of the Units. The removal of a Manager who is also a Member shall not affect the Manager’s rights as a Member and shall not constitute a withdrawal of a Member. The Members other than any Member who serves as Manager may remove such Manager for cause in the event of a breach of such Manager of the terms of this Agreement, or in the event of the gross negligence or willful misconduct thereof in the performance of such Manager’s obligations hereunder.

8.11 Vacancies. If a Manager resigns or is removed, its successor shall be chosen by the affirmative vote of Members holding a Majority of the Units (excluding, in the event a Member is removed as Manager, the vote of such Member).

8.12 Compensation of the Manager. The Company shall pay the Manager, as compensation for the Manager’s services as such, such amounts with such frequency as shall be determined by consent of all of the Members. No Manager shall be prevented from receiving such compensation because it is also a Member of the Company.

8.13 Contracting with Affiliates. The Manager is expressly authorized to contract with any Member or an Affiliate of any Member relating to the operation of the Company, provided only that the fees under any such contract are at market rates and the other terms are in all respects reasonable and fair to the Company.

TRANSFER OF MEMBER’S UNITS

AND DISASSOCIATION

(a) Generally. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Members agree and covenant not to Transfer or permit to be Transferred all or any portion of the Units that they now own or hereafter acquire, except with the prior written consent of all of the Members.

(b) No Membership. A Transfer of any Units in the Company entitles the Transferee of such Units to receive only the Economic Interest to which the Transferor of such Units in the Company would have otherwise been entitled. The Transferee obtains no right to vote or participate in the management of the business and affairs of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Transferee shall be included within the term “Member” for all purposes of this Article IX, except for purposes of the rights of a Member to purchase Units of other Members/Transferees.

(c) Membership. The Transferor remains a Member of the Company with all rights to vote and manage unless and until nontransferring Members owning a Majority of the outstanding Units in the Company (other than the Units held by the Transferor or the Transferee) consent, in their sole discretion, which can be unreasonably withheld, to make the Transferee a Member. A Member may not withdraw from the Company except with the consent of nonwithdrawing Members owning a Majority of the outstanding Units in the Company (other than the Units held by the Member seeking to withdraw). If a Member dies or transfers all of the Member’s Units during lifetime and any Transferee is not approved as a Member pursuant to this Section 9.01(c), the Units held by such Transferee under the terms of Section 9.01(c) hereof shall be voted for all purposes hereunder by the remaining Members in the same manner as and in proportion to the Units voted by such Members.

(d) No Dissolution. A mere Transfer of a Unit or Units does not result in dissolution of the Company.

9.02 Disassociation. A person ceases to be a Member of the Company upon the occurrence of, and at the time of, any Event of Bankruptcy (as defined below), unless the Members unanimously consent to continue the person as a Member. For purposes of this Agreement, an “Event of Bankruptcy” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events:

(a) An assignment for the benefit of creditors;

(b) The filing of a voluntary petition of bankruptcy;

(c) The adjudication of bankruptcy or insolvency or the entry of an order for relief in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding;

(d) The filing of a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief under any statute, law, or regulation;

(e) Seeking, consenting to, or acquiescence to the appointment of a trustee for, receiver for, or liquidation of all or any substantial part of the property of the Shareholder; or

(f) Any proceeding seeking reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief under any statute, law, or regulation that continues for one hundred twenty (120) days after the commencement thereof, or the appointment of a trustee, receiver, or liquidator of all or any substantial part of the property thereof without agreement or acquiescence, which appointment is not vacated or stayed during the 120-day period, or, if the appointment is stayed, for 120 days after the expiration of the stay during which period the appointment is not vacated.

9.03 Restraining Order. In the event that any Member shall at any time Transfer or attempt to Transfer its Units in violation of the provisions of this Agreement and any rights hereby granted, then the other Members and the Company shall, in addition to all rights and remedies at law and in equity, be entitled to a decree or order restraining and enjoining such Transfer (including reimbursement by such Member of all fees and expenses incurred by the other Members and the Company in obtaining such decree or order), and the offending Member shall not plead in defense thereto that there would be an adequate remedy at law; it being hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed that damages at law will be an inadequate remedy for a breach or threatened breach of the violation of the provisions concerning transfer set forth in this Agreement.

Distributions pursuant to the preceding sentence may be distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the Members for the purposes of liquidating Company assets, collecting amounts owed to the Company and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company or of the Manager arising out of or in connection with the Company. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the Members from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the Manager in the same proportions as the amount distributed to such trust by the Company would otherwise have been distributed to the Members pursuant to this Operating Agreement; provided, however, that such trust may only be created if the Company has received an opinion from counsel, which is generally recognized as being capable and qualified in the area of federal income taxation, that such trust will not be classified as an association which would be taxed as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.
