Each Member will receive a corresponding credit to its Capital Account for its cash Capital Contribution.

(b) Assignment of Property. No later than the Tax-Free Spin Date, each Member will execute assignments of the Property in the forms attached hereto as Exhibits B-1 and B-2, which assignments shall be effective no later than the Tax-Free Spin Date. For purposes of crediting Capital Accounts, in view of the difficulty of ascertaining the fair market value of the Property being contributed subject to the Licenses, the Members agree that no additional amount will be credited to their respective Capital Accounts with respect to such assignments of the Property. To the extent the Members contribute additional intellectual property to the Company during the term of this Agreement in accordance with the terms of their respective Licenses or otherwise, no additional amounts shall be credited to their respective Capital Accounts with respect to such contributions of intellectual property.

3.2 Operating Budget; Company Maintenance Fees.

(a) Company Maintenance Fees. From and after the Tax-Free Spin Date, each Member shall be required to pay company maintenance fees to the Company (the “Company Maintenance Fees”), which Company Maintenance Fees shall be treated as Capital Contributions and shall include (i) such Member’s share,

in accordance with its Percentage Interest, of the Operating Expenses and (ii) such Member’s share of fees, costs, expenses and obligations associated with the Property, including the costs and expenses of holding, maintenance, registration, enforcement and defense of all rights relating to the Property, to the extent and as set forth in such Member’s License (the “Brand Maintenance Fees”). No later than the Tax-Free Spin Date, each Member shall deposit a retainer with the Company as mutually agreed by the Members (the “Deposit”), representing the estimated Company Maintenance Fees payable by such Member for three (3) months following the Tax-Free Spin Date (or such other period approved by a Supermajority in Interest of the Board). The Deposit shall be the property of the Member and shall not be treated as a Capital Contribution but shall be held by the Company on behalf of such Member as a retainer for such Member’s obligation to pay Company Maintenance Fees as Capital Contributions. Each Member shall also be obligated to make additional monthly deposits of Company Maintenance Fees so as to maintain an amount at least equal to three (3) months (or such other period approved by a Supermajority in Interest of the Board) of such Member’s estimated Company Maintenance Fees in reserve for funding the operations of the Company. The Company shall not, without approval of the Member making such Deposit, withdraw from or apply the Deposit other than to fund Company Maintenance Fees of such Member when due. The Company shall promptly notify a Member of any such obligation to make additional deposits. The Company Maintenance Fees (including the Brand Maintenance Fees and other payments made pursuant to the Licenses) when paid (whether through direct payment by a Member or application of such Member’s Deposit) shall be treated as Capital Contributions for the purpose of this Agreement.

(b) Operating Budget; Additional Operating Expenses. The Officers (or other individual or entity designated by a Supermajority of the Board) shall be responsible for the preparation of the Operating Budget, which shall consist of Operating Expenses of the Company and Brand Maintenance Fees required to be paid to the Company under the Licenses. All Operating Expenses will be funded by Capital Contributions by the Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests. All Brand Maintenance Fees will be funded as Capital Contributions of the Members as set forth in their respective Licenses. Prior to the Tax-Free Spin Date, a Supermajority in Interest of the Members shall approve an overall Operating Budget for the Company. Thereafter, on a quarterly basis, the Officers shall prepare for the Board’s approval an updated Operating Budget for the Company (including adjustments to the estimated Brand Maintenance Fees in accordance with the Licenses and estimated Operating Expenses). Increases in the overall Operating Expenses shall be approved by a Majority in Interest of the Board; provided that increases of more than ten percent (10%) over the previously approved quarterly Operating Budget (a “Substantial Budget Adjustment”) shall be subject to the

approval of a Supermajority in Interest of the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, adjustments to the Operating Budget with respect to Brand Maintenance Fees in accordance with the Licenses shall not be included for the purposes of determining the percentage increase in the Operating Budget and shall not require, directly or indirectly, the separate approval of the Board or either Member under this Agreement; provided, however, that if a Member disputes the estimated Brand Maintenance Fees that comprise a portion of its required Deposit payable pursuant to such Member’s License as determined by the Board, such Member shall be entitled to treat such dispute as a Dispute hereunder and resolve such Dispute in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.8.

(c) Additional Capital Calls. As the Board from time to time determines that the Company requires additional capital pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company shall give notice to each Member of (i) the total amount of additional capital required, designating the amount that is attributable to Operating Expenses and the amount attributable to Brand Maintenance Fees relating to such Member’s License; (ii) each Member’s proportionate share (based on Percentage Interest) of the total additional capital to be contributed to the Company for Operating Expenses; and (iii) the date such Member’s additional Capital Contribution is due and payable, which date shall be not less than ten (10) business days after the date such notice was given (which shall be the same date for both Members for any Capital Contributions relating to Operating Expenses).

(d) No Additional Required Contributions. Except as provided in Sections 3.1 and 3.2, no Member will be required to contribute any capital to the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, no Member shall have any obligation to make any capital contribution to the Company other than in respect of (i) Operating Expenses and (ii) Brand Maintenance Fees relating to such Member’s License.

(e) Cash Contribution Required. No Member shall be permitted to satisfy any Capital Contribution obligation with property other than cash (it being understood that the Members are obligated to contribute intellectual property to the Company in accordance with the terms of their respective Licenses, for which no additional amount will be credited to their respective Capital Accounts).

3.3 Intentionally omitted.

3.4 Failure to Make Required Capital Contribution or Pay Company Maintenance Fees. If a Member fails to pay its Company Maintenance Fees when and in the amounts required hereunder and under its License, the Company may apply such Member’s Deposit to the payment of such Company Maintenance Fees. Any such application of the Deposit shall be treated as a Capital Contribution. Following any such application of the Deposit, the Member shall be obligated to

promptly make payment to the Company in an amount sufficient to replenish such Deposit. If a Member (the “Borrowing Member”) fails to make a Capital Contribution when and in the amounts required under this Agreement, or if a Member fails to pay its Company Maintenance Fees when and in the amounts required under this Agreement, and as a result of the application of such Member’s Deposit to the payment of such Capital Contributions or Company Maintenance Fees, the amount such Member has on deposit with the Company is less than fifty percent (50%) of the amount required to be on deposit for such Member at the time, then the other Member (the “Lending Member”) shall be entitled, at the Lending Member’s option, to (i) replenish the shortfall in the amount of the Borrowing Member’s Deposit, so that the amount of such Deposit is again equal to fifty percent (50%) of the amount required to be on deposit for the Borrowing Member at the time or (ii) if the amount of the Capital Contribution or Company Maintenance Fees exceeds the remaining amount of the Borrowing Member’s Deposit, after applying all remaining amounts of the Borrowing Member’s Deposit towards the applicable Capital Contribution or Company Maintenance Fees, pay the remaining amount of such Capital Contribution or such Company Maintenance Fees to the Company, and the amount of any such payment made by the Lending Member in accordance with subsections (i) or (ii) shall be deemed to be an unsecured loan from the Lending Member to the Borrowing Member, payable upon demand by the Lending Member and accruing interest at the maximum interest rate permitted under applicable law, compounded monthly, and shall be deemed a Capital Contribution by the Borrowing Member.

At the time the Lending Member makes its payment to the Company pursuant to either of the options set forth above in subsections (i) or (ii), the Lending Member shall notify the Borrowing Member that it is advancing such unsecured loan and making demand on the Borrowing Member for payment. If the Borrowing Member fails to pay the full amount of such unsecured loan within thirty (30) days after delivery of such notice, the Board of Directors shall be increased to six (6) Directors, and the Lending Member shall have the right to appoint three (3) additional Directors (unless the Lending Member already controls a majority of the Board pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or unless prohibited pursuant to the last sentence of Section 6.1(a)); provided, however, that the Board of Directors shall be decreased to three (3) Directors, and the term of the three (3) additional Directors appointed by the Lending Member shall immediately expire at such time as the Borrowing Member repays the loan from the Lending Member; and provided, further, that the size of the Board of Directors shall not be increased and the Lending Member shall not have the right to appoint additional Directors (in each case as set forth above) or, if already so appointed, the term of such three (3) additional Directors shall expire and the Board of Directors shall be decreased to three (3) Directors if (a) the Lending Member has failed to make payments to the

Borrowing Member under the OS License (as required pursuant to the terms thereof); (b) the Lending Member has failed to make its Capital Contributions in respect of the Company Maintenance Fees or otherwise, as required hereunder; (c) the Lending Member is in default under the Xerox Litigation Agreement and a claim is made or threatened against PalmSource or the Borrowing Member is otherwise incurring liabilities under such agreement; or (d) the Lending Member is subject to a Bankruptcy.

Except as provided in Section 4.2(a)(ii), and Sections 10.2 and 10.5 (liquidating distributions), and subject to the limitations of Section 4.2(b) and 4.2(c), distributions will be made to the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

(ii) To the extent the Company receives revenues (including without limitation settlement proceeds or like payments, recoveries or reimbursements) that either (A) are allocated to the Class A Member pursuant to the Licenses or (B) if not so allocated, are attributable to Brand Maintenance Fees

which the Class A Member has paid pursuant to such Member’s License and Section 3.2(a) hereof or (C) if not so attributable otherwise specifically relate to the Property, other than the PalmOne Brand, after paying or establishing sufficient Company reserves for related expenses, such revenues shall be distributed to the Class A Member, provided that such Member agrees that all or part of such distribution shall be added to the Deposit of such Class A Member as appropriate to the extent necessary to cause the Deposit of the Class A Member to equal the estimated Company Maintenance Fees payable by the Class A Member for three (3) months following the date of such distribution (or such other period approved by a Supermajority in Interest of the Board). To the extent the Company receives revenues (including without limitation settlement proceeds or like payments, recoveries or reimbursements) that either (A) are allocated to the Class B Member pursuant to the Licenses or (B) if not so allocated, are attributable to Brand Maintenance Fees which the Class B Member has paid pursuant to such Member’s License and Section 3.2(a) hereof or (C) if not so attributable otherwise specifically relate to the PalmOne Brand, such revenues shall be distributed to the Class B Member, provided that such Member agrees that all or part of such distribution shall be added to the Deposit of such Class B Member as appropriate to the extent necessary to cause the Deposit of the Class B Member to equal the estimated Company Maintenance Fees payable by the Class B Member for three (3) months following the date of such distribution (or such other period approved by a Supermajority in Interest of the Board).

(b) Limitations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall withhold and not be obligated to make any distribution that would render the Company insolvent or violate any provision of the Act.

Except as specifically provided in Section 10.5, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of any distribution of the Property in connection with a dissolution of the Company or otherwise as permitted under this Agreement, the Property may only be distributed to the Class A Member, and the Class A Member shall solely own any and all rights to such distributed Property, provided that the PalmOne Brand (and as applicable, the Transition Marks) shall remain subject to the OS License, the PalmOne License or any other written agreement between the parties approved by a Supermajority of the Board, if and to the extent such agreements remain in full force and effect. In view of the difficulty of ascertaining the fair market value of such distributed Property, the Members agree that no amounts will be debited to the Members’ respective Capital Accounts with respect to such distributed Property.

(c) Proceeds from Sale of Property. Subject to Section 4.2(b) and subject to the terms of the Licenses with respect to proceeds from the resolution of claims and actions related to the Property, but notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of any direct or indirect sale, exchange, transfer, assignment or other disposition of any of the Property with the consent of a Supermajority in Interest of the Members, the proceeds of any such disposition shall be promptly allocated and distributed to the Member that, immediately before the effective date of such disposition, held a license to such Property under one of the Licenses; provided that, if such Property is licensed to both Members under the Licenses immediately before the effective date of such disposition, the proceeds of such disposition shall be allocated and promptly distributed to the Class A Member.

4.3 Allocations.

(a) Generally. The Company’s items of income, gain, loss, deduction or expense for any period shall be allocated among the Members as follows:

(i) Items of income, gain, loss, deduction or expense that (A) arise from Brand Maintenance Fees that are the obligations of or allocated to the Class A Member or that otherwise are the obligations of or allocated to Class A Member pursuant to the Licenses shall be allocated to the Class A Member, (B) arise from Brand Maintenance Fees that are obligations of or allocated to the Class B Member or that otherwise are the obligations of or allocated to Class B Member pursuant to the Licenses shall be allocated to the Class B Member and (C) if not obligations of or allocated to the Class A Member or Class B Member pursuant to the Licenses, that otherwise specifically relate to the Property, other than the PalmOne Brand, shall be allocated to the Class A Member or if otherwise specifically relate to the PalmOne Brand, shall be allocated to the Class B Member.

(ii) Other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or expense, if any, shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests.

(b) Compliance with 704(b) Regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no allocation of any item under Section 4.3(a) will be made unless it would be considered, under the Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704(b) (the “704(b) Regulations”), either to have substantial economic effect, or to be in accordance with the Members’ interests in the Company. To the extent necessary to comply with the foregoing, in lieu of the allocation set forth in Section 4.3(a), the Board may cause the Company’s items of income, gain, loss, deduction, expense or credit to be reallocated among the Members in such manner as it may, in its reasonable discretion, determine to be fair and appropriate and consistent with the provisions of the 704(b) Regulations, including the provisions of

Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) (minimum gain chargeback), Section 1.704-2(i)(4) (member nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback), and Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) (qualified income offset), each of which is incorporated herein by this reference.

(c) Avoiding Deficit Capital Accounts. Special allocations of income or gain may be made to any Member if the Board reasonably determines that such Member’s Capital Account would otherwise have a deficit Capital Account balance that (in absolute value) exceeds the maximum deficit balance that would be permitted under the 704(b) Regulations.

(d) Loss. If any allocations of loss, deduction or expense would result in a deficit balance in a Member’s Capital Account that would (in absolute value) exceed the maximum deficit balance that would be permitted under the 704(b) Regulations, some or all of such items may be reallocated to any other Members whose Capital Accounts would not have such excess deficit balances (in proportion to their respective interests).

(e) Subsequent Allocations. If any allocations are made under Sections 4.3(b) through (d) (the “Regulatory Allocations”), the Board shall take such Regulatory Allocations into account in making subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction or expense, and shall make such further special allocations to the extent possible to prevent the Regulatory Allocations from distorting the manner in which Company distributions, including liquidating distributions, will be divided among the Members pursuant to this Agreement.

(f) Discretion of the Board. In making allocations under this Section 4.3, the Board may make elections under the Code and Regulations on behalf of the Company in such manner as it reasonably deems appropriate. In the event any taxing authority allocates income to a Member from the Company or vice versa, the Board shall make such allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction or expense to the extent permissible to carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

4.4 Tax Allocations. For purposes of reporting each Member’s share of federal, state and any applicable local income taxes, items of income, gain, loss, deduction, expense and credit will be allocated in accordance with the provisions of Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, so as to properly take into account any variation between the adjusted tax basis and the book value of Company assets, using any method that complies with Regulations Section 1.704-3 as the Board in its reasonable discretion deems appropriate.

4.5 Tax Reporting. The Members are aware of the income tax provisions of this Agreement and agree to be bound by these provisions in reporting their share

of Company items of income, gain, loss deduction and expense for federal and state income tax purposes.

Each Member will have the sole right to remove or replace the Director previously appointed by it. A Member may remove or replace a Director

that it has appointed from time to time in its discretion by written notice to the Company and the other Member of such action and of the effective date thereof.

ARTICLE 8

AMENDMENTS

8.1 General. Except as otherwise provided herein, any provision of this Agreement may be amended only with the consent of a Supermajority in Interest of the Members.

ARTICLE 9

TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS

9.1 General Transfer Conditions. Unless approved by a Supermajority in Interest of the Members, no Transfer of a Member’s Membership Interest may be effected unless such Member assigns to the proposed Transferee all right, title and interest of such Member in and to the License between the Company and such Member in accordance with the terms of the License, and the proposed Transferor and each Transferee provides the Company with such documents, assurances and transfer fees as the Company may, in its reasonable discretion, deem necessary or

desirable in connection with effecting such Transfer. Transfers of a Member’s Membership Interest must include all of a Member’s Membership Interest.

9.2 Rights of Unadmitted Assignees. A person who acquires all of a Member’s Membership Interest pursuant to the terms hereof, but who is not admitted as a substitute Member pursuant to Section 9.4, will assume all obligations to make additional Capital Contributions to the Company in connection with such Transferred Interest, but will be entitled only to distributions and allocations with respect to such Transferred Interest in accordance with this Agreement, and will have no right to any information or accounting of the affairs of the Company, will not be entitled to inspect the books or records of the Company and will not have any of the rights (including voting rights and the right to appoint Directors) of a Member under the Act or this Agreement.

9.3 Rights of Transferor. A Member who Transfers all of its Membership Interest will, upon the effective date of such Transfer, no longer be a Member hereunder, and will no longer have any of the rights of a Member (including voting rights, rights to appoint Directors or rights to any information or accounting of the affairs of the Company) under the Act or this Agreement.

9.4 Substitute Member. A Transferee of a Member’s Membership Interest who acquires all of a Member’s Membership Interest in compliance with the provisions of Section 9.1 shall automatically become a Member upon such time as such Transferee executes and delivers to the Company counterpart signature pages to this Agreement and, if applicable, evidence of assumption of the License between the Company and the former Member.

In the case of a Membership Termination Event that constitutes a Transfer of such Member’s Membership Interest that does not satisfy the conditions of Section 9.1, the

transferee of such Membership Interest will be treated as an assignee of the Membership Interest and will have only the rights described in Section 9.2.

(c) Any other event which is specified under applicable law as an event causing the dissolution of a limited liability company notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement.

10.2 Winding Up.

The proceeds from the liquidation of such assets will be applied and distributed in the following order:

(a) First, to the payment and discharge of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities (including debts and liabilities and return of unused Deposits to the Members, to the extent permitted by law and this Agreement), including the establishment of any necessary reserves; and

(b) Second, the balance, if any, to the Members having positive balances in their Capital Accounts (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all periods, including the period during which such distribution occurs), in the proportion that the positive balance in each Member’s Capital Account bears to the sum of all Capital Accounts having positive balances.

10.3 Timing of Liquidation Distributions. Distributions in liquidation will be made by the end of the taxable year in which the liquidation occurs or, if later,

within ninety (90) days of the liquidating event and will otherwise comply with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b).

Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, each Member will be entitled to look solely to the assets of the Company (other than the Property and certain additional intellectual property, if any, which shall be distributed in accordance with Section 4.2(b)) for the return of such Member’s positive Capital Account balance and will have no recourse for its Capital Contribution and/or share of allocated net income or gain against the Directors or any other Member. If any Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for the Company’s taxable year in which the liquidation occurs), such Member will have no obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Company with respect to such deficit, such deficit will not be considered a debt owed to the Company or to any other person for any purpose whatsoever and such Member will not be liable for such deficit in any manner.

10.5 Involuntary Dissolution. In the event of an involuntary dissolution, each Member shall be entitled to receive the distribution of such Property as is licensed to such Member in accordance with the terms of such Member’s License, subject to the rights and restrictions applicable to the Property set forth in Sections 3, 4, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 6.7 and 7.3 of such License, provided, however, that such restrictions shall terminate to the extent and upon the occurrence of any event or circumstances that would have terminated such restrictions pursuant to the applicable License.
