Original Contributions. Each Member shall contribute their prorata share of the closing
costs required to purchase the former Central Florida Kidney Foundation building and such costs as
may be required of the Company as Lessor of the building for use as
an ambulatory surgery
center.
5.2 Additional Contributions. If the Manager determines that additional monies are
needed by the-Company, the Manager may notify the existing Members of the amount of additional
monies needed. If, within sixty (60) days after giving such notice, the Company has received the
written approval of Members owning, in the aggregate, at least
two-thirds (2/3) of the Percentage
Interests then hold by the Members, then the Company will notify all Members of the amount of the
additional monies and such approval. The existing Members will have the right, but no obligation,
to contribute to the capital of the Company such amount pro-rata based on their respective
Percentage Interests within fifteen (15) days after the date of notification of the approval.
Failure of a Member to make a contribution within such period shall constitute a waiver by such
Member of any rights to contribute the additional capital requested and such Member shall be deemed
to be a “Non-Contributing Member.” If fewer than all of the Members elect to make an additional
capital contribution the Manager shall notify all of the Members who have so elected (“Electing
Members”) of their opportunity to contribute the balance pro-rata, which contribution shall be paid
to the Company within ten (10) days of the date of such notification. If any unpaid balance
remains, such unpaid balance may be paid by any Electing Members in such amounts and in such manner
as the Member in their sole discretion may determine.

Reallocation of Interest. In the event that a Member shall fail to make
an initial capital contribution pursuant to Section 5.1 or an additional capital contribution
pursuant to Section 5.2, the Percentage Interest of such Non-Contributing Member shall be
decreased so that the Non-Contributing Member’s Percentage Interest is a fraction of the total
Percentage Interests equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the amount of all capital
contributions made by the Non-Contributing Member pursuant to Sections 5.1 or 5.2, and the
denominator of which is the total of all capital contributions of all Members (including the
Non-Contributing Member and including all additional capital contributions made pursuant to
Section 5.2). One Hundred Twenty-Five percent (125%) of the amount of the difference between the
Percentage Interest of the Non-Contributing Member prior to the aforesaid adjustment and the
Percentage Interest of the Non-Contributing Member after the aforesaid adjustment shall be added
to the Percentage Interest of the Electing Members pro rata in accordance with the ratio that the
total capital contributions (including all additional contributions) of such Member bears to the
total capital contributions (including all additional capital contributions) made by all such
Members.
5.4 Borrowings from Members. If at any time the Manager reasonably believes
that the Company is, or at any time within the following ninety (90) days will be, having payment
obligations in excess of cash or equivalent resources with which to fund such obligations,
including anticipated funds available through calls for additional contributions and including
available borrowed funds, the Manager shall not be required to request the Members to contribute
funds beyond those expressly required pursuant to Sections 5.1 and 5.2, above, but shall have the
option
7
to notify all Members of the amount of the additional funds needed and that such additional funds
may be loaned to the Company by the Members. The existing Members will have the right, but not the
obligation, to loan additional funds to the Company pro-rata on the same terms as provided in
connection with additional contributions of capital in
Section 5.2, above. All funds so loaned
shall be repaid by the Company, together with interest thereon at the rate of prime plus 1% per
annum, as determined from time to time by Wachovia Bank, Orlando, Florida, and/or its successors
and assigns, from the date of such advance to the date of repayment in full, which interest shall
be payable quarterly, as a priority over any other payment from the Company to any Member unless
otherwise determined by Members owning a majority of the Percentage
Interests. No Member shall be personally liable for repayment of such loans.
5.5 Application of Proceeds. The Manager is authorized to apply the capital
and the proceeds of any loan to the Company for such purposes and with such priorities of the
business of the Company as the Manager shall determine in the exercise of his sole discretion.
5.6
Members’ Accounts. A capital account shall be maintained for each Member
consisting of such Member’s initial contributions and additional contributions to the capital
of the Company, increased by Company profits and income allocated to the Member and decreased
by the Company losses, deductions and by the amount of any distributions to it pursuant to
Section 6.4 below, in accordance with federal income tax
accounting principles. No Member shall
receive interest on his capital account, and no Member shall have any right to the return of
any sums in his capital account except (a) to the extent specifically provided herein. No
payment of interest or principal owed by the Company to the Members shall be credited to any
capital account since such payments are deemed returns on and of indebtedness. No Member shall
be liable to the Company for any negative balance in his capital account except to the extent
that such a negative balance shall have arisen as a result of a Member’s receipt of a
distribution in excess of the amount rightfully due such Member hereunder, or (b) as required
under Section 6.5 (c). The capital contribution of each Member shall be returned to it upon the
dissolution and liquidation of the Company, subject to any limitations and conditions with
respect thereto under this Agreement or the Act.

in effect throughout the year, with appropriate adjustment for

Company’s property or a casualty or taking in condemnation affecting the Company’s property or upon
liquidation:
(a) all items of Company income, gain, profit, tax preference, or credit shall be allocated
among the Members as follows (ordinary income shall be allocated prior to the allocation of capital

Accounts, in proportion and to the extent of such deficit balances; and
(ii) Thereafter, in accordance with each Member’s Percentage Interest.
(b) All items of Company loss shall be allocated as follows:
(i) First, to the Members in proportion to the positive balances, if any, in
their respective Capital Accounts; and
(ii) Thereafter, to the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

Distributions of Net Cash Flow. The Manager shall determine and
distribute each fiscal year’s Net Cash Flow at least annually in arrears for each fiscal year
during the Company’s term in the following order of priority:
(a) First, to the Members in repayment of the principal amounts and accrued interest of any
loans made by Members, in proportion to the respective outstanding principal amounts of such
loans; and
(b) Thereafter, to the Members, in proportion to their Percentage Interest in effect on the
date of distribution. Account shall be given for any draws received by Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, Xx.
The distribution of Net Cash Flow for any year may be increased or decreased upon the
affirmative vote of Members owning, in the aggregate, a majority of the Percentage Interests then

9
6.5
Distribution of Net Proceeds. In the event of a sale, exchange or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or a casualty or taking in condemnation
affecting substantially all of the Company’s property or upon liquidation, the proceeds from such
event, if any, shall be distributed in the following order of priority:
(a) First, to the Members in repayment of the principal amounts and accrued interest of any
loans made by Members in proportion to the respective outstanding principal amounts of such
loans; and
(b) Thereafter, to the Members in an amount equal to their positive Capital Account
balances after any allocation of Net Profits and Net Losses associated therewith and taking
into account all proper capital account adjustments for the Company’s taxable year during
which the dissolution or liquidation of the Company occurs (or, if later, through the date of
the final distribution to the Members), other than those adjustments made for liquidating
distributions pursuant to this Section 6.5 or for contributions by a Member pursuant to this
Section 6.5; to the extent of the positive balance of the
Members’ Capital Accounts, then to
the Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests.
(c) Should any Member have a deficit balance in his capital account following
the liquidation of its interest in the Company (as defined in Reg. Section 1.704-1
(b)(2)(ii)(g)), as determined after taking into account all proper capital account adjustments for the
Company’s taxable year during which such liquidation occurs (or, if later, through the date of final
distribution in liquidation of such Member’s interest), other than the adjustment made for contributions
by such Member pursuant to this Section 6.5, the deficit balance shall represent an obligation from
it to the Company to be paid in cash no later than the last day of the Company’s taxable year during
which such liquidation occurs (or, if later, no later than 90 days after the date of such
liquidation). In the event such Member shall fail to pay such amount to the Company within such time period such
amount shall bear interest (beginning with the date such Member’s interest in the Company was
liquidated) at the highest applicable legal rate and such Member shall pay the cost of
attorneys’ fees and court costs incurred by the Company by the other Members, or by any assignee of such
obligation in order to collect such amounts. If any properties of the Company other than
cash are to be distributed “in kind” to the Members hereunder, the capital accounts of the Members
shall be adjusted in accordance with Reg. Section 1.704-1 (b)(2)(iv) and in particular, Subpart (e)
thereof.
6.6
Allocations in Case of Transfers. All items of income, profit, gain, loss, deduction, tax
preference and credit allocable to any Percentage Interest in the Company that has been
transferred during any year shall be allocated among the persons who were the holders of such ‘
Percentage Interest during such year in proportion to their respective holding periods, without
any requirement for an attempted separate determination of the results of Company operations
during such periods.
6.7
Restoration of Certain Distributions. The provisions of Section 6.4 require the
Manager to determine and distribute a portion of the Net Cash Flow realized by the Company no
less frequently than annually during the term of the Company. However, each Member understands
and agrees that it is not possible to determine the exact amount of Net Cash Flow for any fiscal
year until
10
a reasonable time following the last day of such fiscal year. Thus, it is both possible and
likely that distributions of Net Cash Flow to the Members by the Manager during any fiscal year
during the term of the Company will be more or less than the amount of Net Cash Flow to which the
Members are entitled for such fiscal year. Therefore, each Member
covenants and agrees that, in the
event the Manager determines and gives appropriate notice within six months after the end of the
fiscal year that an amount distributed as Net Cash Flow to a Member for such fiscal year exceeds
the amount to which such Member is entitled for such fiscal year, such Member shall restore such
excess distribution within thirty (30) days following notice
from the Company of the amount of such excess.
7.

purchase shall take place at such time and place as the Company shall
designate (but not later
than three (3) months after
12
the above-described notice is given to the transferee). Twenty percent (20%) of the purchase price
shall be paid at such closing and the balance shall be represented by a promissory note bearing
interest at the prime rate of interest per annum being charged by First Union National Bank,
Orlando, Florida, as of the date of the closing and requiring thirty-six (36) equal monthly

assignee or transferee of a Member is only entitled to receive the funds or property to which its
assignor would be entitled in the absence of such transfer or assignment and shall have no right to
vote in any Company matter whatsoever and shall have no right to require any information or an
accounting of Company transactions or to inspect the Company books. A further transfer or
assignment by an assignee or transferee of a Member, whether or not such person becomes a
substitute Member, is subject to the provisions of this Article 7. The Company shall be entitled to
treat the transferor or assignor of all or a portion of a Member’s interest in the Company as the

cash or property made in good faith to such transferor or assignor until such time as the written
