ACQUISITION OF MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS;
CAPITAL ACCOUNTS; LOANS

Section 4.1 Membership Interests. Effective as of the date hereof, the Members shall own the Membership Interests set forth on Schedule A attached hereto. A separate Capital Account will be maintained for each holder of Membership Interests.

Section 4.2 Status of Capital Contributions. (a) Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, no holder of Membership Interests shall receive any interest, salary or drawing with respect to its Capital Contributions or its Capital Account or otherwise in its capacity as a holder of Membership Interests. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or with the prior approval of the Board of Managers, no holder of Membership Interests will be permitted to borrow from the Company, make an early withdrawal of or demand or receive a return of any Capital Contributions.

(iii) Allocations to the holders of Membership Interests of Net Profits; and

(iv) Allocations to the holders of Membership Interests of income described in Code Section 705(a)(1)(B).

(d) If, in the opinion of the Company’s accountants, the manner in which Capital Accounts are to be maintained pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 4.3 is required to be modified to comply with Code Section 704(b) and the Regulations, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding provisions of this Section 4.3, the method in which Capital Accounts are maintained shall be so modified; provided,however, that any change in the manner of maintaining Capital Accounts shall not materially alter the economic agreement between or among the Members.

(e) Upon liquidation of the Company, liquidating distributions will be made in accordance with Section 10.4.

The Company may offset damages for a judicially and finally determined breach of this Agreement by a holder of Membership Interests whose interest is liquidated (either upon the withdrawal of the Member (to the extent permitted by this Agreement) or the liquidation of the Company) against the amount otherwise distributable to the holder of Membership Interests.

Section 4.4 Loans. Any Member may make loans to the Company to the extent requested by the Board of Managers and required to fund operations in excess of Capital Contributions, if any, made to the Company pursuant to this Article IV.

ARTICLE VIII

ALLOCATIONS; TAX MATTERS

Section 8.1 Allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses from Operations. Except as may be required by Code Section 704(c) and the underlying Regulations, Net Profit and Net Loss of the Company shall be allocated for book and tax purposes among the holders of Membership Interests in accordance with, and in proportion to, their respective Percentage Interests.

Section 8.2 Other Allocation Rules. (a) Notwithstanding any provisions of Article VIII, the following special allocations shall be made in the following order:

(i) Minimum Gain Chargeback (Nonrecourse Liabilities). If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain for any Fiscal Year, the minimum gain chargeback requirement described in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and (g) shall apply.

(ii) Minimum Gain Chargeback (Member Nonrecourse Debt). If there is a net decrease in a holders of Membership Interest’s Nonrecourse Debt minimum Gain during any Fiscal Year, any holders of Membership Interests with a share of that nonrecourse debt minimum gain (determined under Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5)) as of the beginning of the Fiscal Year must be allocated items of income and gain for the Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, for succeeding Fiscal Year) equal to that holders of Membership Interest’s share of the net decrease in the nonrecourse debt minimum gain in accordance with Regulations Section 1304-2(i).

(iii) Qualified Income Offset. In the event any holders of Membership Interests unexpectedly receives any adjustment, allocation, or distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5), or (6), which adjustment, allocation, or distribution creates or increases a Member’s Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to that holders of Membership Interests in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate that deficit balance so created or increased as quickly as possible. This Section 8.2 (iii) is intended to constitute a “qualified income offset” under Regulations Section 1.704.1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iv) Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Company taxable year in excess of the sum of (i) the amount such Member is obligated to restore pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c) and (ii) the amount such Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Company income and gain) as quickly as possible to eliminate such excess Capital Account deficit, provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 8.2(iv) will be made

if and only to the extent that such Member would have a Capital Account deficit in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article VIII have been tentatively made as if Section 8.2(iii) and this Section 8.2(iv) were not in the Agreement.

(v) Stop Loss. No items of loss or deduction will be allocated to any Member to the extent that any such allocation would cause the Member to have (or increase the amount of) an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Company taxable year. All items of loss or deduction in excess of the limitation set forth in this Section 8.2(v) shall be allocated among such other Members, which do not have such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit balances, pro rata, in proportion to their Percentage Interests, until no Member may be allocated any such items of loss or deduction without having or increasing such an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit balance. Thereafter, any remaining items of loss or deduction shall be allocated to the Members, pro rata, in proportion to their relative aggregate Percentage Interests.

(vi) Basis Adjustment. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any property is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated among the Members in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the Regulations.

(vii) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated to the holders of Membership Interests in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. If the Board of Managers determines in its good faith discretion that nonrecourse deductions for any Fiscal Year must be allocated in a different ratio to satisfy the safe harbor requirements of the Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704(b), any Manager is authorized to revise the prescribed ratio for such Fiscal Year to the numerically closest ratio that satisfies such requirements.

(viii) Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year or other applicable period shall be specially allocated to the Member that bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable (as determined under Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(4) and (i)(1)).

(b) If the number of Membership Interests owned changes during a Fiscal Year, all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit allocable to any Membership Interests shall be allocated among the Members for such Fiscal Year in a reasonable manner, as determined by the Board of Managers, that takes into account the varying Membership Interests of such Members in the Company during such taxable year in accordance with Section 706 of the Code.

Section 8.3 Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Section 8.2 (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Regulations.

It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this Section 8.3. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VIII (other than the Regulatory Allocations), Board of Managers shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction, in whatever manner it determines appropriate, so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Member’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not contained in this Agreement and all Company items were allocated pursuant to this Article VIII without regard to the Regulatory Allocations. In exercising its discretion under this Section 8.3, the Board of Managers shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Sections 8.2(a)(i) and 8.2(a)(ii) that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made under Sections 8.2(a)(vii) and 8.2(a)(viii).

Section 8.4 Treatment of Company. The Members intend that the Company will be treated as a partnership, rather than an association taxable as a corporation, for federal income tax purposes, and shall make no election, and no Member shall make any such election, under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3(c) to be treated otherwise.

ARTICLE IX

DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 9.1 Distributions. (a) In the sole discretion of the Board of Managers, the Company may, from time to time, make discretionary distributions of Distributable Cash with respect to a Fiscal Year, which distributions shall be made to the Members in accordance with and in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.

(b) All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any state or local tax law with respect to any payment, distribution or allocation by the Company to the holders of Membership Interests shall be treated as amounts distributed to the holders of Membership Interests pursuant to this Article IX for all purposes of this Agreement. The Board of Managers is authorized and directed to withhold from distributions to the holders of Membership Interests and to pay over to any federal, state or local government any amounts required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any other federal, state or local law and shall allocate such amounts to those holders of Membership Interests with respect to which such amounts were withheld. Promptly upon learning of any requirement under any provision of the Code or any other applicable law requiring the Company to withhold any sum from a distribution to a holder of Membership Interests or to make any payment to any taxing authority in respect of such holder of Membership Interests, the Company shall give written notice to such holder of Membership Interests of such requirement, and if practicable and if requested by such holder of Membership Interests, shall cooperate with such holder of Membership Interests in all lawful respects to minimize or to eliminate any such withholding or payment.

Section 9.2 Liquidation Distribution. Distributions made upon liquidation of the Company shall be made as provided in Section 10.4.

Section 9.3 No Creditor Status. A holder of Membership Interests shall not have the status of, and is not entitled to the remedies available to, a creditor of the Company with regard to distributions that such holder of Membership Interests becomes entitled to receive pursuant to this Agreement and the Delaware Act.

Section 9.4 Limitations on Distribution. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not make a distribution to any holder of Membership Interests on account of its interest in the Company if such distribution would violate the Delaware Act or other applicable law.

ARTICLE X

DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION

Section 10.1 No Dissolution. The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of additional Members in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 10.2 Events Causing Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs shall be wound up upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

(i) the determination of the Board of Managers as provided in Article VI;

(ii) the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company; or

(iii) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under the Delaware Act.

Section 10.3 Notice of Dissolution. Upon the dissolution of the Company, the Person or Persons approved by the Board of Managers to carry out the winding up of the Company (the “Liquidating Trustee”) shall promptly notify the holders of Membership Interests of such dissolution.

Section 10.4 Liquidation. Upon dissolution of the Company, the Liquidating Trustee shall immediately commence to wind up the Company’s affairs; provided, however, that a reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly liquidation of the assets of the Company and the satisfaction of liabilities to creditors so as to enable the holders of Membership Interests to minimize the normal losses attendant upon a liquidation. The holders of Membership Interests shall continue to share Net Profits and Net Losses during liquidation in the same proportions, as specified in Article VIII hereof, as before liquidation. Each holder of Membership Interests shall be furnished with a statement prepared by the Company’s certified public accountants that shall set forth the assets and liabilities of the Company as of the date of dissolution. Each holder of Membership Interests shall pay to the Company all amounts then owing by such Person to the Company. The proceeds of liquidation shall be distributed, as realized, in the following order and priority:

(i) First, to creditors of the Company (including holders of Membership Interests that are creditors to the extent otherwise permitted by law), in

satisfaction of the liabilities of the Company (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof), other than liabilities for distributions to holders of Membership Interests;

(ii) Thereafter, the balance, if any, to the holders of Membership Interests in proportion to their respective positive Capital Account balances after giving effect to Capital Account adjustments for the Company taxable year in which the liquidating event occurs (other than those from the liquidating distribution made pursuant to this Section 10.4(ii)).

It is intended that such distributions under Section 10.4(ii) will result in the Members receiving aggregate distributions in the order of and equal to the amount of distributions that would have been received if the liquidating distributions were made in accordance with Percentage Interests. However, if the balances in the Capital Accounts do not result in such intention being satisfied, constituent items of income, gain, loss and deduction will be reallocated among the Members for the year of the liquidation, to the extent permissible under Code Section 704(b) (and, if necessary and permissible under Code Section 704(b), for prior Company taxable years for which the deadline (determined without extensions) for the filing of the Company’s federal income tax return has not passed), so as to cause the balances in the Capital Accounts to be in the amounts necessary to assure that such result is achieved. To the extent that the holders of Membership Interests determine that any or all of the assets of the Company shall be sold, such assets shall be sold as promptly as possible, but in a business-like and commercially reasonable manner. For purposes of making the liquidating distributions required by this Section 10.4, the Liquidating Trustee shall, at the direction of the Board of Managers, distribute all or any portion of the assets of the Company in kind or to sell all or any portion of the assets of the Company and distribute the proceeds therefrom. If any property or assets of the Company are to be distributed in kind to the holders of Membership Interests, (i) the Capital Accounts of the holders of Membership Interests shall be adjusted to reflect the amount, if any, of unrealized gain or loss with respect to such property, as though such property had been sold for its fair market value and any gain or loss allocated among the holders of Membership Interests in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and (ii) such property will be distributed in such a manner that each holder of Membership Interests will receive such Person’s proportionate interest in each of the assets available for such distribution; that is to say, each holder of Membership Interests shall receive an undivided interest, corresponding to the proportion to which it is entitled pursuant to this Section 10.4, in all interests in real estate and leaseholds and other indivisible properties, as nearly as practicable, of each divisible asset.

Section 10.5 Termination. The Company shall terminate when all of the Company Assets, after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company, shall have been distributed to the holders of Membership Interests in the manner provided for in this Article X, and the Certificate shall have been canceled in the manner required by the Delaware Act.

Section 10.6 Claims of the Holders of Membership Interests. The holders of Membership Interests shall look solely to the Company’s assets for the return of their Capital Contributions, and if the assets of the Company remaining after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company are insufficient to return such Capital

Contributions, the holders of Membership Interests shall have no recourse against the Company, the Board of Managers or any other holder of Membership Interests or any other Person. No holder of Membership Interests with a negative balance in such holder’s Capital Account shall have any obligation to the Company or to the other holders of Membership Interests or to any creditor or other Person to restore such negative balance upon dissolution or termination of the Company or otherwise.

ARTICLE XI

(a) The Company shall file as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. All decisions for the Company relating to tax matters including, without limitation, whether to make any tax elections, the positions to be taken on the Company’s tax returns and the settlement or further contest or litigation of any audit matters raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority, shall be taken by the Board of Managers. The Board of Managers shall designate the “tax matters partner” within the meaning of Code Section 6231(a)(7). The Company’s tax matters partner may cause the Company to elect, pursuant to Section 754 of the Code, to adjust the tax basis of the Company’s assets.

The Board of Managers shall have sole and complete discretion in determining the consideration and terms and conditions with respect to any future issuance of Membership Interests and may issue such Membership Interests in one or more classes or one or more series of such classes, with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, powers and duties, as shall be fixed by the Board of Managers in the exercise of its sole and complete discretion, including, without limitation, (i) the allocation of Net Profits and Net Losses to each such class or series of Membership Interests; (ii) the rights and powers of each such class or series of Membership Interests, which rights and powers may be superior or inferior to those of existing Members; (iii) the rights of each such class or series of Membership Interests upon dissolution and liquidation of the Company; (iv) the price at which and the terms and conditions, if any, upon which each such class or series of Membership Interests of the Company may be redeemed by the Company; (v) rights and powers which are superior or inferior to those of existing Members; (vi) the right to Vote as a separate class or group on specified matters by amendment of this Agreement; and (vii) the right of each such class or series of Membership Interests to Vote on Company matters.

Should a Member not purchase its Proportionate Share of all such additional Membership Interests either because of his decision to not purchase his Proportionate Share, his Percentage Interest in the Company shall be reduced accordingly.

(b) The Board of Managers shall have the right to amend, or cause the Executive Officers to amend, any provision of this Agreement and to execute, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file, publish and record such documents as the Executive Officers may in their sole discretion determine to be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith in order to reflect the authorization and issuance of each such class or series of Membership Interests. The Board of Managers may authorize the Executive Officers to do all things it deems to be appropriate or necessary to comply with the Delaware Act and is authorized and directed to do all things it deems to be necessary or advisable in connection with any such future issuance, including compliance with any statute, rule, regulation or guideline of any federal, state or other governmental agency.
