(ii) insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by the Members; and

(iii) in the event additional Common Units are issued together with other securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (i) and (ii) above, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Members.

5.4. Capital Accounts. A separate Capital Account shall be established and maintained for each Member.

5.5. Allocations.

(a) The balance of the Capital Account for each Member shall be deemed to equal the current aggregate amount (or if property other than cash was contributed by the relevant Member, the fair market value of such property) of such Member’s Capital Contributions. The Capital Account of each Member shall be increased by:

1. the U.S. Dollar amount of any additional cash amounts contributed by such Member;

(c) For Capital Account purposes, all items of loss and deduction shall be allocated (i) first, pro rata, to the Members according to the positive balances in their respective Capital Accounts until such Capital Accounts are reduced to zero and (ii) second, pro rata, to the Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests. All items of profit and gain shall, for Capital Account purposes, be allocated (A) first, pro rata, to the Members in order to reverse any allocations of loss or deduction made pursuant to the preceding sentence and (B) second, pro rata, to the Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests.

(f) Subject to the provisions of Section 5.4(e), but notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Section 5.4, no item of deduction or loss shall be allocated to a Member to the extent such allocation would cause a negative balance in such Member’s Capital Account (after taking into account the adjustments, allocations and distributions described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6)). In the event some but not all of the Members would have such excess Capital Account deficits as a consequence of such allocation, the limitation set forth in this Section 5.4(f) shall be applied on a Member-by-Member basis so as to allocate the maximum permissible deduction or loss to each Member under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).

Any special allocations of items of income or gain pursuant to this Section 5.4(g) shall be taken into account in computing subsequent allocations pursuant to this Article V so that the net amount of any items so allocated and all 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 adjustments, allocations or distributions had not occurred.

(h) The Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) in the case of a distribution of any property (other than cash).

Members may, with the prior written consent of the holders of at least two thirds of the outstanding Common Units, advance funds to the Company in excess of the amounts required hereunder or pursuant to any subscription agreement to be contributed by them to the capital of the Company.

(e) If the offer to sell is not accepted by the Company and/or the Remaining Members as to all the Transfer Common Units prior to the termination of the last five day period specified in Section 6.3(c), the relevant transferors may make a bona fide Transfer with respect to the balance of the Transfer Common Units to the prospective transferee named in the Offer Notice, provided that such Transfer shall be made only in strict accordance with the terms set forth in the Offer Notice. To the extent that the Transferor shall fail to make such Transfer within 60 days following the expiration of the last five-day period specified in Section 6.3(c) for the election by the Remaining Members or, in the event any Remaining Member revokes an election to purchase Transfer Common Units pursuant to Section 6.3(b), within 60 days of the date of the last such notice of revocation, such Transfer Common Units shall again become subject to all of the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Article VI.

ARTICLE VII

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS AND RESTRICTIONS

7.1. Restricted Common Units.

(a) The Company may issue Restricted Common Units pursuant to a separate agreement (“Restricted Common Unit Issuance Agreement”). All Restricted Common Units shall initially be unvested, meaning they are subject to repurchase by the Company (“Unvested Restricted Common Units”). Pursuant to the terms set forth in the Restricted Common Unit Issuance Agreement and this Article VII, all or a portion of such Unvested Restricted Common Units shall, upon the passage of time or upon the occurrence of one or more events (each, a “Vesting Event”), become vested, meaning the Company’s right to repurchase such Common Units shall lapse (“Vested Restricted Common Units”). The Restricted Common Unit Issuance Agreement shall specify (i) the number of Restricted Common Units issued thereby, (ii) a vesting schedule or the Vesting Event(s) pursuant to which the Unvested Restricted Common Units shall vest, (iii) the price per Common Unit, and (iv) the event which shall trigger the Company’s right to exercise its repurchase option (“Repurchase Event”).

(b) Upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Event, the Company shall, in its sole discretion, but subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.1 and the Restricted Common Unit Issuance Agreement, have the right to repurchase (the “Repurchase Option”) all or any number of the Unvested Restricted Common Units of the relevant Member, regardless of whether such Unvested Restricted Common Units are owned or held by such Member or by one or more of such Member’s Permitted Transferees.

(c) The number of Unvested Restricted Common Units to be repurchased by the Company will first be satisfied to the extent possible from the Unvested Restricted Common Units held by the affected Member. If the number of Unvested Restricted Common Units then held by the affected Member is less than the total number of Unvested Restricted Common Units which the Company has elected to exercise its right to repurchase pursuant to the Repurchase Option, the Company will repurchase the remaining Unvested Restricted Common Units which the Company has elected to repurchase from the transferees of the affected Member, who or which hold such Unvested Restricted Common Units at the time of delivery of notice of the Company’s exercise of the Repurchase Option in accordance with Section 7.1(c) (determined as nearly as practicable to the nearest Common Unit).

(d) If the Company elects to repurchase all or any number of an affected Member’s Unvested Restricted Common Units pursuant to a Repurchase Option, the Company will deliver written notice of such election to the holder or holders of the relevant Unvested Restricted Common Units subject to such Repurchase Option within 90 days after the occurrence of the Repurchase Event. The written notice by the Company will set forth (i) the number of Unvested Restricted Common Units to be acquired; (ii) the consideration to be paid for such Unvested Restricted Common Units (determined pursuant to Section 7.1(d)), and (iii) the time and place for the closing of the repurchase transaction (determined pursuant to Section 7.1(e)).

(e) The Company shall repurchase any Unvested Restricted Common Units which it elects to repurchase pursuant to the Repurchase Option at a price per Common Unit equal to the Original Cost of such Unvested Subject Common Unit.

(f) The closing of the transactions for the repurchase of Unvested Restricted Common Units as to which the Repurchase Option has been exercised shall take place at the principal place of business of the Company on the date designated in writing by the Company. The Company will pay for the Unvested Restricted Common Units to be repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Option by delivery of a check or checks in the amount of the total repurchase price, and the holder(s) of the subject Unvested Restricted Common Units will sell such Unvested Restricted Common Units so repurchased against payment therefor; provided, however, that if the aggregate repurchase price of the subject Unvested Restricted Common Units exceeds $10,000, the Company may pay such price in equal installments of the lesser of (A) $10,000 and (B) the remaining unpaid portion of the repurchase price, payable quarterly until the repurchase price is paid in full. At the closing, the relevant holder(s) shall deliver to the Company any certificates, instruments or other documents evidencing the Unvested Restricted Common Units to be repurchased, duly endorsed and in negotiable form and, to the extent necessary (i) with all documentary stamps affixed thereto, and (ii) accompanied by executed unit transfer powers endorsed in blank.

(g) If a Member or any other Person becomes obligated to sell Unvested Restricted Common Units to the Company pursuant to this Section 7.1 and fails to deliver such documentation pertaining to the Unvested Restricted Common Units to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.1, the Company, may, at its option, in addition to all other remedies it may have, send to such Person by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, the repurchase price for such Unvested Restricted Common Units, determined in accordance with Section 7.1(d). Thereupon, the Company, upon written notice to such Person, shall cancel the Unvested Restricted Common Units on its books and shall amend Schedule I hereto to reflect the cancellation of the Unvested Restricted Common Units to be repurchased by the Company and thereupon all of such Person’s rights in and to such Unvested Restricted Common Units sold in accordance with this Section 7.1(f) shall terminate.

7.2. Collaboration and Use of Intellectual Property. In accordance with the collaborative purposes of the Company as set forth in Section 3.1 hereof, from time to time, one or more of the Members (each, a “Contributing Member”) may make available to the Company various items of Intellectual Property for its use in the development of products, services and applications and, in certain circumstances, a Contributing Member may enter into a separate transfer or licensing agreement with respect to such Intellectual Property either with the Company or with one or more of the other Members. Such agreement may be for separate consideration as may be stated therein or, if with the Company, then the transfer or license effected thereby may be deemed an additional Capital Contribution to the Company. In any event, the Members and the Company agree as follows with respect to such Intellectual Property:

(a) In the absence of a specific license or transfer agreement to the contrary, the sharing of Intellectual Property in furtherance of the purposes of the Company shall not constitute a relinquishment of the Contributing Member’s rights in such Intellectual Property, including the right to transfer or license such intellectual property to others for any purpose, or otherwise be deemed to impair or dilute such rights, all such rights being hereby reserved;

(b) Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement, a license or transfer agreement or otherwise agreed in writing by the Contributing Member, the Company and the Members agree that they shall keep confidential and shall not publish or otherwise disclose or use for any purpose other than for the purpose of exercising retained rights or rights under licenses granted by a Contributing Member, or performing obligations hereunder, or as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, any confidential or proprietary information or materials consisting of Intellectual Property which is disclosed by a Contributing Member;

(c) Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement, a license or transfer agreement or otherwise agreed in writing by the Contributing Member, neither the Company nor any Member (other than the contributing Member) shall have any right to transfer, sell, assign or otherwise use such Intellectual Property in any way which would compete with or cause harm to the business or financial condition of the Contributing Member or the Company; and

(d) For purposes of this Section 7.2, Intellectual Property shall not include information or know-how which:was already known to the receiving party, other than under an obligation of confidentiality (except to the extent such obligation has expired or an exception is applicable under the relevant agreement pursuant to which such obligation established), at the time of disclosure;was generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain at the time of its disclosure to the receiving party;became generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain after its disclosure and other than through any act or omission of the receiving party in breach of this Agreement or a license agreement;was independently discovered or developed by the receiving Party without reference to or use of Confidential Information of the disclosing Party as demonstrated by documented evidence; orwas disclosed to the receiving Party, other than under an obligation of confidentiality (except to the extent such obligation has expired or an exception is applicable under the relevant agreement pursuant to which such obligation established), by a Third Party who had no obligation to the disclosing Party not to disclose such information to others.

8.3. General Obligations. The Managers shall execute and cause to be filed original or amended documents and shall take any and all other actions as may be reasonably necessary to maintain the status of the Company as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of North Carolina and any other jurisdiction in which the Company engages in business.

8.4. General Authority. Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 7 hereof, the Managers shall have responsibility for and control over the day-to-day management of the business and affairs of the Company.

Except as otherwise provided herein, no Manager shall be liable to the Company or the Members for any act or omission in connection with the business or affairs of the Company including, without limitation, any mistake of judgment and any business decision (including any decision regarding the timing of any acquisition or disposition of any property of the Company), so long as the Manager against whom liability is asserted acted in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed by the Manager to be within the scope of authority under this Agreement and in the best interests of the Company, unless such act or omission constitutes gross negligence, intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law.

8.7. Binding Authority. The Managers shall have authority to bind the Company only with respect to matters arising in the ordinary course of business of the Company, including execution of any ministerial agreement, document or instrument or undertaking in an amount less than $500. Any person dealing with the Company may rely upon a certificate signed by any Manager as to (a) the identity of any Member, (b) any fact relevant to the Company, and (c) the due authority of persons purporting to act on behalf of the Company.

8.8. Restrictions on Manager Authority. Except as expressly stated herein, no Manager shall directly or indirectly perform any actions on behalf of the Company without the vote or written consent of Members holding 60% of the Membership Interests.

8.9. Managers Under the North Carolina LLC Act. Any Manager appointed from time to time in accordance wither Section 8.1 hereof shall be a “manager” of the Company for all purposes of, and within the meaning set forth in, the North Carolina LLC Act.

8.10. Compensation. The compensation of the Managers for services to the Company shall be determined, in good faith by the Members. Managers shall, however, be reimbursed by the Company for any reasonable expenses (including travel expenses) that are incurred by such Managers in the performance of their duties hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to preclude any Manager from serving the Company in any other capacities and receiving compensation for such services.

8.11. Officers.

(a) Consistent with Section 8.1, the Company shall have such officers, with such duties, powers and authority, as the Managers may establish from time to time which may include a President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Vice Presidents. Each officer shall hold his or her respective office for the term specified by the Managers, unless earlier removed by the Members or Managers. Except as otherwise provided by law, any number of offices may be held by the same person.

(b) Any officer or agent of the Company may resign at any time by giving written notice to the Members and the Managers. Any such resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein or, if no time is specified, upon receipt thereof, and unless specified therein, acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.

(c) Except as provided by the terms of any agreement between the relevant officer or agent and the Company, any officer or agent of the Company may be removed from office, with or without cause, by the Managers or by Members holding a majority of the outstanding Common Units.

(e) Third parties dealing with the Company shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon the power and authority of the officers of the Company as established in accordance herewith.

8.12. Voting Rights of Members; Meetings of Members.

(a) Members shall be entitled to vote for the Managers, each of whom shall be elected or removed by holders of a majority of the aggregate Common Units then issued and outstanding; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto hereby agrees to take any and all actions, including, without limitation, the voting of all Common Units held by them to effect the purpose of Section 8.1 and cause the Managers to be elected subject to Section 8.1.

(b) A meeting of the Members may be called at any time by Members holding not less than 25% of the then issued and outstanding Common Units. Meetings of the Members shall be held at the Company’s principal place of business or at any other place agreed to by the Members. Not less than five nor more than 60 days before each meeting, the Person or Persons calling the meeting shall give written notice of the meeting to each Member, stating the place, date, hour and purpose of the meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, a Member shall be deemed to waive such notice if, before or after the meeting, the Member signs a waiver of the notice which is filed with the records of meetings of the Members, or is present at the meeting in person or by proxy without objecting to the lack of notice prior to the commencement of such meeting.

(c) At any meeting, the presence in person or by proxy of Members holding not less than a majority of the Common Units then issued and outstanding shall constitute a quorum. If, at any meeting duly called, a quorum shall not be present, a majority of the Members present at such meeting may reschedule such meeting, despite the absence of a quorum, which rescheduled meeting may be held on not less than 24 hours notice to the other Members. A Member may vote either in person or by written proxy signed by the Member or by the Member’s duly authorized attorney in fact. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.13(c), at any meeting at which a quorum is present, the affirmative vote (in person or by proxy) of Members owning a majority of the Common Units then issued and outstanding shall be the act of the Members.

(d) A meeting of the Members need not be held at any time, except as called pursuant to Section 8.13(b).

The Company shall file such writings with the minutes of proceedings of the Members.

(f) Members may participate in a meeting by conference telephone or similar communications equipment, by means of which all Persons in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

8.13. Exculpation. No Member, Manager or officer shall have personal liability to the Company or the Members for monetary damages for breach of such Member’s, Manager’s or officer’s fiduciary duties (if any) or for any act or omission performed or omitted by such Member, Manager or officer in good faith on behalf of the Company. Each Member, Manager or officer shall be indemnified and exculpated from personal liability for damages in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by any Person as to matters that such Member, Manager or officer reasonably believes are within such Person’s professional or expert competence.

ARTICLE X

DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION

10.1. Events Causing Dissolution.

(a) The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of new Members or the withdrawal of existing Members (unless all Members of the Company have withdrawn). The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs wound up upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the affirmative vote or written consent of Members holding 75% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Units; and (ii) the occurrence of any other event which, under the North Carolina LLC Act, would cause the dissolution of the Company or that would make it unlawful for the business, activities or operations of the Company to be continued.

(b) Dissolution of the Company shall be effective as of the day on which the event occurs giving rise to the dissolution, but the Company shall not terminate until there has been a winding up of the Company’s business, activities, operations and affairs, and the LLC Assets have been distributed as provided in Section 10.3 of this Agreement and by the North Carolina LLC Act.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

11.1. Specific Performance, Injunction, Payment of Costs.

(a) The parties agree that it is impossible to determine the monetary damages which would accrue to the Company or any Member by reason of the failure of any other Member or the Company to perform any of his or its obligations under this Agreement requiring the performance of an act other than the payment of money only. Further, because the Common Units cannot be readily purchased or sold in the open market, the parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages are not an adequate remedy with respect to the nonperformance or other breach of any obligations pursuant to the provisions of Article VI and Article VII. Therefore, each party hereto may, in his or its sole discretion, apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive relief (without posting a bond or other security) in order to enforce or prevent any violation of the provisions of this Agreement.

(b) In the event of a breach or threatened breach by a Member of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Company, and the remaining Members shall be entitled to an injunction restraining such Member from any such breach without a showing of irreparable harm. The availability of this injunctive remedy shall not prohibit the Company or any Member from pursuing any other remedies available at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of monetary damages from the breaching Member.

11.2. Further Assurances. At any time or from time to time after the date hereof, the parties agree to cooperate with each other, and at the request of any other party, to execute and deliver any and all further instruments or documents and to take any and all such other and further actions as the relevant other party may reasonably request in order to evidence or effectuate the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and to otherwise carry out the intent of the parties hereunder.

11.3. Termination; Survival. The rights and obligations of a Member under this Agreement shall terminate at such time as such Member no longer is the beneficial owner of any Common Units. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (a) the date on which the Members and the Company agree in writing to terminate this Agreement, (b) the sale of all or substantially all of the LLC Assets, and (c) the dissolution of the Company; provided, that prior to such termination, the proceeds of any sale described in clause (b) of this Section 11.3 are liquidated and distributed to the Members pursuant to Articles V and X of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, regardless of the manner in which this Agreement is terminated, Sections 6.1, 7.1, 8.14, 8.15, 8.16, 11.2, 11.3, 11.5, 11.6, 11.7, 11.8, 11.9 and 11.10 hereof shall survive until, by their respective terms, they are no longer operative.

11.4. Benefits of Agreement. All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as provided in Section 8.14 of this Agreement, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and not for the benefit of any third party.

11.5. Enforceability. It is the desire and intent of the parties hereto that the provisions of this Agreement shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies of each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, if any particular provision of this Agreement shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed amended to delete therefrom the portion thus adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such deletion to apply only with respect to the operation of such provision in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.

11.6. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OR CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF).

11.7. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL AND STATE COURT IN NORTH CAROLINA SITTING IN RALEIGH AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE LITIGATED EXCLUSIVELY IN SUCH COURTS. EACH PARTY HERETO AGREES NOT TO COMMENCE ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING RELATED HERETO OR THERETO EXCEPT IN SUCH COURT. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH PARTY HERETO CONSENTS TO PROCESS BEING SERVED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL.

11.8. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OF THE OTHER PARTIES HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT ANY OF THE OTHER PARTIES WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.8.

11.9. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing and sufficient if delivered personally or sent by telecopy (with confirmation of receipt) or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, e-mail signed using xxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx to the appropriate addresses listed below or, if applicable, on the relevant Additional Member Signature Page attached hereto:

ARICON, LLC to pursue automation and robotics in the construction industry

Kirkland, WA – September 27, 2012 – CoroWare, Inc. (OTCQB:COWI) announced today it has partnered with a private investor to launch a joint venture – ARiCON, LLC – that will develop and market mobile robot platforms, applications, and solutions for the construction industry.
