(b) Within sixty (60) days of a fiscal year end or month end, as appropriate, the Company shall provide the Members and the Board with written notice setting forth the Company’s calculation of the satisfaction of the requirements of a Milestone, together with supporting documentation relating thereto (the “Milestone Notice”). The Majority Member shall have thirty (30) days to review the Milestone Notice and to notify the Company of any objections to the calculations included in the Milestone Notice (“Milestone Objections Notice”). Within ten (10) Business Days of any Milestone Objections Notice, the Board shall obtain an abridged revenue audit for the measurement period and calculations set forth in such Milestone Objections Notice (“Milestone Determination Date”). The determination of such audit shall be final, conclusive and binding, and the fees and expenses of such audit shall be borne by the Company.

Upon the Board making such determination to call for Additional Capital Contributions, the Board shall deliver to the Members a written notice of the Company’s need for Additional Capital Contributions, which notice shall specify in reasonable detail (i) the purpose for such Additional Capital Contributions, (ii) the aggregate amount of such Additional Capital Contributions, (iii) each Member’s pro rata share of such aggregate amount of Additional Capital Contributions (based upon such Member’s Percentage Interest), and (iv) the date (which date shall not be less than sixty (60) Business Days following the date that such notice is given) on which such Additional Capital Contributions shall be required to be made by the Members.

(b) If any Member shall fail to timely make, or notifies the other Members that it shall not make, all or any portion of any Additional Capital Contribution which such Member is obligated to make under Section 3.03(a), then such Member shall be deemed to be a “Non-Contributing Member.” A Member that is not a Defaulting Member (a “Contributing Member”) shall be entitled, but not obligated, to loan to the Non-Contributing Member, by contributing to the Company on its behalf, all or any part of the amount (the “Default Amount”) that the Non-Contributing Member failed to contribute to the Company (each such loan, a “Default Loan”); provided, that such Contributing Member shall have contributed to the Company its pro rata share of the applicable Additional Capital Contribution. The proceeds of such Default Loan shall be treated as an Additional Capital Contribution by the Non-Contributing Member.

(i) Each Default Loan shall bear interest (compounded monthly on the first day of each calendar month) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time to time remaining from the date advanced until repaid, at the lesser of (i) fifteen percent (15%) per annum and (ii) the maximum rate permitted at law (the “Default Rate”). Default Loans shall be repaid out of any distributions that would otherwise be made to the Non-Contributing Member, as more fully provided in Section 3.03(c); provided, that, so long as a Default Loan is outstanding, the Non-Contributing Member shall have the right to repay it (together with interest then due and owing) in whole or in part. Upon a repayment in full of a Default Loan made to a Non-Contributing Member or any unpaid Default Amount (together with interest accrued thereon as provided in Section 3.03(c)), such Non-Contributing Member shall (so long as it does not have any other outstanding Default Loans and is not otherwise a Non-Contributing Member with respect to any other Additional Capital Contributions) cease to be a Non-Contributing Member.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, any amount that otherwise would be paid or distributed to a Non-Contributing Member pursuant to Section 6.01 or ARTICLE XII shall not be paid to such Non-Contributing Member but shall be deemed paid and applied on behalf of such Non-Contributing Member (i) first, to accrued and unpaid interest on all Default Loans (in the order of their original maturity dates) made to such Non-Contributing Member (in the order of their original maturity dates), (ii) second, to the outstanding principal amount of such Default Loans (in the order of their original maturity dates), and (iii) third, to fund any Additional Capital Contribution of such Non-Contributing Member that has not been paid when due or funded pursuant to a Default Loan; provided that any unpaid Default Amount that is not funded pursuant to a Default Loan shall bear interest at the Default Rate (compounded monthly on the first day of each calendar month) from the date such Additional Capital Contribution was due until paid in full to the Company.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Non-Contributing Member fails to make its Additional Capital Contribution in accordance with Section 3.03(a), without limitation of any other rights or remedies that may be available, a Contributing Member may institute proceedings against the Non-Contributing Member, either in the Contributing Member’s own name or on behalf of the Company, to obtain payment of the Non-Contributing Member’s portion of the unpaid Additional Capital Contribution, together with interest accrued thereon at the Default Rate from the date that such Additional Capital Contribution was due until the date that such Additional Capital Contribution is made, at the cost and expense of the Non-Contributing Member.

(e) Each Member acknowledges and agrees that it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to determine the actual damages incurred by a Contributing Member as a result of a failure of a Member to fund its portion of an Additional Capital Contribution, and that the entitlement of a Contributing Member to exercise the remedies described in this Section 3.03 is fair and reasonable.

(f) Except as set forth in Sections 3.02, 3.03 or 3.06, neither Member shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions or make loans to the Company.

Section 3.04 Maintenance of Capital Accounts. The Company shall establish and maintain for each Member a separate capital account (a “Capital Account”) on its books and records in accordance with this Section 3.04.

(i) such Member’s Capital Contributions, including such Member’s initial Capital Contribution and any Additional Capital Contributions;

(iii) any liabilities of the Company that are assumed by such Member or secured by any property distributed to such Member.

(ii) the amount of any Net Loss or other item of loss or deduction allocated to such Member pursuant to ARTICLE V; and

(iii) the amount of any liabilities of such Member assumed by the Company or that are secured by any property contributed by such Member to the Company.

Section 3.05 Succession Upon Transfer. In the event that any Membership Interest 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 Membership Interest and, subject to Section 5.04, shall receive allocations and distributions pursuant to ARTICLES V, VI, and XII in respect of such Membership Interest.

Section 3.06 Negative Capital Accounts. In the event that any Member shall have a deficit balance in its Capital Account, such Member shall have no obligation, including during the Term or upon dissolution or liquidation of the Company, to restore such negative balance or make any Capital Contributions to the Company by reason thereof, except as may be required by Applicable Law or in respect of any negative balance resulting from a withdrawal of capital or dissolution in contravention of this Agreement.

Section 3.07 No Withdrawals from Capital Accounts. No Member shall be entitled to withdraw any part of its Capital Account or to receive any distribution from the Company, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

Each of the Members acknowledge that from time-to-time Members, or their Affiliates, may make loans to the Company, the proceeds of which are intended to be used as working capital for the Company and/or to finance in whole or in part the acquisition of additional assets (“Member Loans”). The terms of such Member Loans shall be approved the Board. Loans by any Member to the Company shall not be considered Capital Contributions and shall not affect the maintenance of such Member’s Capital Account, other than to the extent provided in Section 3.04(a)(iii), if applicable.

Section 3.09 Modifications. The foregoing provisions and the other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b) and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations.

(c) If the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) as provided in clause (c) of the definition of Book Value in Section 1.01, subsequent allocations of items of taxable 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 Book Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c).

(ii) with the consent of the Board (not including, for purposes of such vote any Managers designated by the Member on whose behalf the Withholding Advance has been made), be repaid by reducing the amount of the next succeeding distribution or distributions to be made to such Member (which reduction amount shall be deemed to have been distributed to the Member, but which shall not further reduce the Member’s Capital Account if the Board shall have initially charged the amount of the Withholding Advance to the Capital Account).

Interest shall cease to accrue from the time the Member on whose behalf the Withholding Advance was made repays such Withholding Advance (and all accrued interest) by either method of repayment described above.

(d) Each Member hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other Members from and against any liability with respect to taxes, interest, or penalties that may be asserted by reason of the Company’s failure to deduct and withhold tax on amounts distributable or allocable to such Member. The Company may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Member under this Section 6.02, including bringing a lawsuit to collect repayment with interest of any Withholding Advances.

Section 7.06 Meetings.

(a) Regular meetings of the Board shall be held when and as determined by the Board at such dates and times as the Board may designate. Special meetings of the Board may be called at any time by the Chairman and shall be called by the Chairman at the written request of any Manager who makes such request in good faith. Meetings of the Board may be held either in person at the executive office of the Company or by telephone or video conference or other communication device that permits all Managers participating in the meeting to hear each other.

(b) Written notice of a meeting of the Board stating the place, date, and hour of the meeting and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called shall be given to each Manager by electronic mail at least seven (7) days before the date of the meeting; provided that, in the case of a special meeting, the Chairman or the Manager requesting the meeting may reduce the advance notice period to not less than three (3) Business Days if the Chairman or such Manager determines, acting reasonably and in good faith, that it is necessary and in the best interests of the Company for the Board to take action within a time period of less than seven (7) days. Notice of any meeting may be waived in writing by any Manager. Presence at a meeting shall constitute waiver of any deficiency of notice under this Section 7.06(b), except when a Manager attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting was not called or convened in accordance with this Agreement and does not otherwise attend the meeting.

(c) The Secretary of the Company (or the Chairman, if there is no Secretary) shall circulate to each Manager an agenda for each regular meeting not less than three (3) Business Days in advance of such meeting. In the case of a regular meeting, such agenda shall include a discussion of the financial reports most recently delivered pursuant to Section 11.01 and any other matters that a Manager may reasonably request to be included on such agenda. In the case of a special meeting, the agenda for such meeting shall be established by the Chairman and shall, if applicable, include any matters specified by the Manager requesting such meeting, and shall be provided to each Manager at the time such special meeting is called.

(d) The decisions and resolutions of the Board shall be recorded in minutes, which shall state the date, time, and place of the meeting (or the date of any written consent in lieu of a meeting), the Managers present at the meeting, the resolutions put to a vote (or the subject of a written consent) and the results of such voting or written consent. The minutes shall be entered in a minute book kept at the principal office of the Company and a copy of the minutes of each Board meeting shall be provided to each Manager.

Section 7.07 Quorum; Participation; Binding Acts; Proxy.

(a) Quorum. A majority of the Managers serving on the Board shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business of the Board. At all times when the Board is conducting business at a meeting of the Board, a quorum of the Board must be present at such meeting. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board, then the Managers present at the meeting may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present.

(b) Participation. Any Manager may participate in a meeting of the Board or any Committee by telephone or video conference or other communications device that permits all Managers participating in the meeting to hear each other, and participation in a meeting by such means shall constitute presence in person at such meeting. A Manager may vote or be present at a meeting either in person or by proxy, and such proxy may be granted in writing, by means of Electronic Transmission, or as otherwise permitted by Applicable Law.

(c) Binding Acts. Each Manager shall have one vote on all matters submitted to the Board or any Committee; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and without limitation of any other rights or remedies that may be available, if and for so long as a Member is a Defaulting Member, any Managers designated by such Member shall cease to have any voting, consent, or approval rights on any matters voted on by the Board and any decision that requires the vote, consent, or approval of Managers designated by such Defaulting Member shall be made without regard to such Managers or any requirement to obtain the vote, consent, or approval of such Managers. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement (including Section 7.02(b)), the affirmative vote of 75% of the Managers in attendance at any meeting of the Board or any Committee at which a quorum is present shall be required to authorize any action by the Board or Committee and shall constitute the action of the Board or Committee for all purposes. If the Board is unable to agree on any matter pursuant to this Section 7.07(c) and such disagreement continues for two (2) days despite good faith deliberations, then the Chairman shall be entitled to cast an additional vote to break any tie (“Tiebreaker Vote”).

(d) Proxy. Each Manager may authorize another individual (who may or may not be a Manager) to act for such Manager by proxy at any meeting of the Board or any Committee, or to express consent or dissent to a Company action in writing without a meeting. Any such proxy may be granted in writing, by Electronic Transmission, or as otherwise permitted by Applicable Law.

Section 7.08 Action By Written Consent. Any permitted or required action of the Board may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the action to be taken, is signed unanimously by all the Managers. Such consent shall have the same force and effect as a vote at a meeting where a quorum was present and may be stated as such in any document or instrument filed with the Secretary of State.

Section 7.09 Compensation; No Employment. Each Manager shall serve without compensation in their capacity as such. Each Manager shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for such Manager’s reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the performance of their duties as a Manager, pursuant to such policies as may from time to time be established by the Board. This Agreement does not, and is not intended to, confer upon any Manager any rights with respect to employment by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, and nothing herein shall be construed to have created any employment agreement or relationship with any Manager.

Section 7.10 Chairman of the Board. The Majority Member Manager shall act as Chairman of the Board (“Chairman”) and preside at all meetings of the Board at which such Chairman is present. For the avoidance of doubt, a Manager shall not be considered to be an officer of the Company by virtue of holding the position of Chairman and, except as expressly provided herein, shall not have any rights or powers different from any other Manager other than with respect to any procedural matters to the extent delegated by the Board or as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

Section 7.11 Committees.

(a) The Board may, by resolution adopted in accordance with Section 7.02(b)(xvi), designate from among the Managers one or more committees of the Board (each, a “Committee”), each of which shall be comprised of one or more Managers. Any such Committee, to the extent provided in the resolution forming such Committee, shall have and may exercise the authority of the Board. The Board, acting in accordance with Section 7.02(b)(xvi), may dissolve any Committee at any time.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in the resolution initially establishing such Committee, the presence in person or by proxy of a number of Managers equal to a majority of the total number of Managers comprising the applicable Committee shall constitute a quorum for the conduct of business at any meeting of such Committee. Except as otherwise provided in the resolution adopting such Committee, actions of any Committee shall be made and determined in accordance with Sections 7.07(b), 7.07(c), and 7.07(d). Notice of Committee meetings shall be given to each member of the Committee in the manner provided in Section 7.06(b).

Section 7.12 Officers. The Board, subject to Section 7.02(b)(xv), may appoint individuals as officers of the Company (the “Officers”) as it deems necessary or desirable to carry on the business of the Company and the Board may delegate to such Officers such powers and authorities as the Board deems advisable. No Officer need be a Member or Manager. Any individual may hold two or more offices of the Company. Each Officer shall hold office until such Officer’s successor is appointed by the Board or until such Officer’s earlier death, resignation, or removal. Any Officer may resign at any time on written notice to the Board. Any Officer may be removed by the Board, acting in accordance with Section 7.02(b)(xv), with or without cause at any time. A vacancy in any office occurring because of death, resignation, removal, or otherwise, may, but need not, be filled by the Board.

Section 7.13 No Personal Liability. Except as otherwise provided in the Act or by Applicable Law, no Manager or Officer will be obligated personally for any debt, obligation, or liability of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, solely by reason of being a Manager or Officer.

Section 7.14 Budget.

(a) As soon as practicable after the filing of the Articles of Formation, and subject to approval by the Board, the Company shall adopt the initial business plan and annual budget for the Company through the Fiscal Year ending 2024 (collectively, the “Initial Budget”). The Board shall operate or cause to be operated the Company in accordance with the Initial Budget, as it may thereafter be amended, modified, or replaced in accordance with Section 7.14(b) (as so amended, modified, or replaced and in effect from time to time, the “Budget”).

(b) At least sixty (60) days before the beginning of each Fiscal Year (commencing with the Fiscal Year ending December 31), the Chief Executive Officer shall prepare and submit to the Board proposed revisions to the Budget for such upcoming Fiscal Year. The Company shall operate in accordance with the then approved Budget until a revised Budget is approved in accordance with Section 7.02(a)(iv).

Section 7.15 Other Activities; Business Opportunities.

(a) Except as provided in Section 7.15(b) and Section 10.02, nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent any Member or Manager or any of their Affiliates from engaging in any other activities or businesses, regardless of whether those activities or businesses are similar to or competitive with the Business; provided that such Member or Manager or Affiliate does not engage in such activity or business as a result of or using Confidential Information. None of the Members or Managers or any of their Affiliates shall be obligated to account to the Company or to the Members for any profits or income earned or derived from such other activities or businesses. None of the Members or Managers or any of their Affiliates shall be obligated to inform the Company or any Member of any business opportunity of any type or description.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 7.15(a), if a Member or Manager is offered or discovers a business opportunity of the type and character that is within the scope of the Business (a “Business Opportunity”), such Member or Manager shall, prior to pursuing such Business Opportunity, offer to the Company the right to pursue such Business Opportunity for the benefit of the Company, regardless of whether such Member or Manager believes the Company would be able (financially or otherwise) or willing to pursue such Business Opportunity. If the Board has not determined that the Company will pursue such Business Opportunity within ten (10) days after its presentation to the Company, the presenting Member or Manager shall, subject to the provisions of Section 10.02, be free to pursue such Business Opportunity as such Member or Manager shall determine in its sole discretion; provided that such Member or Manager has delivered written notice of its decision to pursue such Business Opportunity.

(a) As used herein, the term “Covered Person” shall mean each (i) Member; (ii) officer, director, and employee of each Member; (iii) Manager, Officer, and employee of the Company; (iv) Tax Matters Representative; and (v) Designated Individual.

(b) No Covered Person shall be liable to the Company for any loss, damage, or claim incurred by reason of any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Covered Person in their capacity as a Covered Person, whether or not such Person continues to be a Covered Person at the time such loss, damage, or claim is incurred or imposed, so long as such action or omission does not constitute fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, or a material breach or knowing violation by such Covered Person of any of such Covered Person’s agreements contained herein or in any other agreements with the Company.

(c) A Covered Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports, or statements (including financial statements and information, opinions, reports, or statements as to the value or amount of the assets, liabilities, Net Income, or Net Losses of the Company/, or any facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which distributions might properly be paid) of the following Persons or groups: (i) a Manager; (ii) one or more Officers or employees of the Company; (iii) any attorney, independent accountant, appraiser, or other expert or professional employed or engaged by or on behalf of the Company; or (iv) any other Person selected in good faith by or on behalf of the Company, in each case as to matters that such relying Person reasonably believes to be within such other Person’s professional or expert competence. The preceding sentence shall in no way limit any Person’s right to rely on information to the extent provided in the Act.

Section 8.02 Liabilities and Duties of Covered Persons.

(a) This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create or impose any fiduciary duty on any Covered Person. Furthermore, each of the Members and the Company hereby waives any and all fiduciary duties that, absent such waiver, may be implied by Applicable Law, and in doing so, acknowledges and agrees that the duties and obligations of each Covered Person to each other and to the Company are only as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of a Covered Person otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Covered Person.

(b) Whenever in this Agreement a Covered Person is permitted or required to make a decision (including a decision that is in such Covered Person’s “discretion” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude), such Covered Person shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as such Covered Person desires, including such Covered Person’s own interests (or, in the case of a Manager, the interests of the Member that designated such Manager or such Member’s Affiliates), and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Company or any other Person. Whenever in this Agreement a Covered Person is permitted or required to make a decision in such Covered Person’s “good faith,” the Covered Person shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Agreement or any other Applicable Law.

Section 8.03 Indemnification.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by the Act, as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, substituted, or replaced (but, in the case of any such amendment, substitution, or replacement, only to the extent that such amendment, substitution, or replacement permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than the Act permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment, substitution, or replacement), the Company shall indemnify, hold harmless, defend, pay, and reimburse any Covered Person from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, judgments, fines, or liabilities, including reasonable legal fees or other expenses incurred in investigating or defending against such losses, claims, damages, judgments, fines, or liabilities, and any amounts expended in settlement of any claims (other than in connection with any claims brought by (A) a Member or its Affiliate against another Member or its Affiliate or (B) the Company (collectively, “Losses”) to which such Covered Person may become subject by reason of:

(i) any act or omission or alleged act or omission performed or omitted to be performed on behalf of the Company in connection with the Business of the Company; or

(ii) such Covered Person being or acting in connection with the Business of the Company as a Member, a Manager, or an Officer, or that such Covered Person is or was serving at the request of the Company as a member, manager, partner, director, officer, employee, or agent of any other Person;

provided, that (x) such Covered Person acted in good faith and in a manner believed by such Covered Person to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and within the scope of such Covered Person’s authority conferred on such Covered Person by the Company and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful, and (y) such Covered Person’s conduct did not constitute fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, or a material breach or violation by such Covered Person of any of such Covered Person’s agreements contained herein or in any other agreements with the Company, in either case as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. In connection with the foregoing, the termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Covered Person did not act in good faith or, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such Covered Person’s conduct was unlawful, or that the Covered Person’s conduct constituted fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, or a material breach or violation by such Covered Person of any of such Covered Person’s agreements contained herein or in any other agreements with the Company.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by a Covered Person in connection with investigating, preparing to defend, or defending any claim relating to any Losses for which such Covered Person may be entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 8.03(a) shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to a final, non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction that, in respect of such matter, such Covered Person is not entitled to indemnification for such Losses; provided, however, that the Covered Person shall have provided to the Company (i) written affirmation of such Covered Person’s good faith belief that such Covered Person has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification for such Losses under Section 8.03(a); and (ii) an undertaking to repay all such advanced amounts if it shall ultimately be determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to such indemnification.

(c) The indemnification provided by this Section 8.03 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to indemnification to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any agreement or otherwise. The provisions of this Section 8.03 shall continue to afford protection to each Covered Person regardless of whether such Covered Person remains in the position or capacity pursuant to which such Covered Person became entitled to indemnification under this Section 8.03 and shall inure to the benefit of the executors, administrators, legatees, and distributees of such Covered Person.

(d) To the extent available on commercially reasonable terms, the Company may purchase and thereafter maintain, at its expense, insurance to cover Losses covered by the foregoing indemnification provisions and to otherwise cover Losses for any breach or alleged breach by any Covered Person of such Covered Person’s duties in such amount and with such deductibles as the Board may determine; provided, that (i) all Members and Managers shall be treated equally under any such insurance policies and (ii) the failure to obtain such insurance shall not affect the right to indemnification of any Covered Person under the indemnification provisions contained herein, including the right to be reimbursed or advanced expenses or otherwise indemnified for Losses hereunder. Except as provided in Section 8.03(f), if any Covered Person recovers any amounts in respect of any Losses from any insurance coverage, then such Covered Person shall, to the extent that such recovery is duplicative, reimburse the Company for any amounts previously paid to such Covered Person by the Company in respect of such Losses.

(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any indemnity by the Company relating to the matters covered in this Section 8.03 shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company assets only, and no Member (unless such Member otherwise agrees in writing) shall have personal liability on account thereof solely by reason of being a Member or shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions to help satisfy such indemnity by the Company.

(f) The Company hereby acknowledges that certain Managers (the “Specified Indemnified Persons”) may have rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by a Member (directly or by insurance provided by such Person) (collectively, the “Member Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees that it is the indemnitor of first resort of the Specified Indemnified Persons with respect to matters for which indemnification is provided to them under this Agreement and that the Company shall be obligated to make all payments due to or for the benefit of a Specified Indemnified Person under this Agreement without regard to any rights that such Specified Indemnified Person may have against a Member Indemnitor. The Company hereby waives and releases any and all equitable and other rights or claims to contribution, subrogation, or indemnification from the Member Indemnitors in respect of any amounts paid to a Specified Indemnified Person hereunder. The Company further agrees that no payment of Losses or expenses by any Member Indemnitor to or for the benefit of a Specified Indemnified Person shall affect the obligations of the Company hereunder, and that the Company shall be obligated to repay the Member Indemnitors for all amounts so paid or reimbursed to the extent that the Company has an obligation to indemnify a Specified Indemnified Person for such Losses or expenses hereunder. The Member Indemnitors are third-party beneficiaries of and shall have the power and authority to enforce the provisions of this Section 8.03(f).

(g) If this Section 8.03 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person pursuant to this Section 8.03 to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 8.03 that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law.

(h) The provisions of this Section 8.03 shall be a contract between the Company, on the one hand, and each Covered Person who served in such capacity at any time while this Section 8.03 is in effect, on the other hand, pursuant to which the Company and each such Covered Person intend to be legally bound. No amendment, modification, or repeal of this Section 8.03 that adversely affects the rights of a Covered Person to indemnification for Losses incurred or relating to a state of facts existing prior to such amendment, modification, or repeal shall apply in such a way as to eliminate or reduce such Covered Person’s entitlement to indemnification for such Losses without the Covered Person’s prior written consent.

Section 8.04 Survival. The provisions of this ARTICLE VIII shall survive the dissolution, liquidation, winding up, and termination of the Company.

ARTICLE IX

No Transfer of a Membership Interest to a Person not already a Member of the Company shall be deemed completed until the prospective Transferee is admitted as a Member of the Company in accordance with Section 4.01(b).

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (including Section 9.02), each Member agrees that it will not Transfer all or any portion of its Membership Interest, and the Company agrees that it shall not issue any Membership Interests:

(i) except as permitted under the Securities Act and other applicable federal or state securities or blue sky laws, and then, with respect to a Transfer of Membership Interests, only upon delivery to the Company of an opinion of counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such Transfer may be effected without registration under the Securities Act;

(ii) if such Transfer or issuance would cause the Company to be considered a “publicly traded partnership” under Code Section 7704(b);

(iii) if such Transfer or issuance would affect the Company’s existence or qualification as a limited liability company under the Act;

(iv) if such Transfer or issuance would cause the Company to lose its status as a partnership for federal income tax purposes;

(v) if such Transfer or issuance would cause the Company to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940; or

(vi) if such Transfer or issuance would cause the assets of the Company to be deemed “Plan Assets” as defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 or its accompanying regulations or result in any “prohibited transaction” thereunder involving the Company.

(c) Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any Membership Interest in contravention of this Agreement shall be null and void, no such Transfer shall be recorded on the Company’s books or otherwise recognized by the Company, and the purported Transferee in any such Transfer shall not be treated as the owner of such Membership Interest for any purposes of this Agreement or have any rights as a Member (and the purported Transferor shall continue to be treated as the owner of such Membership Interest and as a Member).

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, any Transfer of a Membership Interest permitted by this Agreement shall be deemed a sale, transfer, assignment, or other disposal of such Membership Interest in its entirety as intended by the parties to such Transfer, and shall not be deemed a sale, transfer, assignment, or other disposal of any less than all of the rights and benefits described in the definition of the term “Membership Interest,” unless otherwise explicitly agreed to by the parties to such Transfer.

Section 9.02 Permitted Transfers. The provisions of Section 9.01(a) shall not apply to any Transfer by a Member, that is not a Defaulting Member (a “Permitted Transferring Member”), of all or any portion of its Membership Interest to:

(a) an Affiliate of such Permitted Transferring Member that is an entity wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by the ultimate parent of such Permitted Transferring Member; provided that such Permitted Transferring Member shall have guaranteed in a writing delivered to the Company and the other Members the performance by the Transferee of all of such Permitted Transferring Member’s obligations under this Agreement;

(b) Initial Minority Member may Transfer its Membership Interests to any of the Managers; and

(c) with respect to any Member who is an individual, (i) such Member’s spouse, parent, siblings, descendants (including adoptive relationships and stepchildren) and the spouses of each such natural persons (collectively, “Family Members”), (ii) a trust under which the distribution of Membership Interest may be made only to such Member and/or any Family Member of such Member, (iii) a charitable remainder trust, the income from which will be paid to such Member during his life, (iv) a corporation, partnership or limited liability company, the stockholders, partners or members of which are only such Member and/or Family Members of such Member, or (v) by will or by the laws of intestate succession, to such Member’s executors, administrators, testamentary trustees, legatees or beneficiaries; provided, that any Member who Transfers Membership Interests shall remain bound by the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 9.03 Right of First Refusal.

(a) Right of First Refusal. At any time, and subject to the terms and conditions specified in this Section 9.03(a), each Member shall have a right of first refusal if any other Member (the “ROFR Offering Member”) receives a bona fide offer from an Independent Third Party for the Transfer of all or any portion of the Membership Interests owned by the ROFR Offering Member (the “ROFR Offering Interests”) that the ROFR Offering Member desires to accept. Each time the ROFR Offering Member receives a bona fide offer from an Independent Third Party for the Transfer any ROFR Offering Interests that the ROFR Offering Member desires to accept, the ROFR Offering Member shall first make an offering of the ROFR Offering Interests to the other Members (the “ROFR Rightholders”) in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 9.03(a) prior to Transferring such ROFR Offering Interests to the Independent Third Party (other than Transfers that (i) are permitted by ARTICLE IX, (ii) are proposed to be made by a Dragging Member or required to be made by a Drag-Along Member pursuant to Section 9.05, or (iii) are made by a Tag-Along Member upon the exercise of its tag-along right pursuant to Section 9.04).

(iii) By delivering the ROFR Offering Member Notice, the ROFR Offering Member represents and warrants to the Company and each ROFR Rightholder that: (A) the ROFR Offering Member has full right, title, and interest in and to the ROFR Offering Interests; (B) the ROFR Offering Member has all the necessary power and authority and has taken all necessary action to sell such ROFR Offering Interests as contemplated by this Section; and (C) the ROFR Offering Interests are free and clear of any and all Liens other than those arising as a result of or under the terms of this Agreement.

(i) Upon receipt of the ROFR Offering Member Notice, each ROFR Rightholder shall have ten (10) Business Days (the “ROFR Notice Period”) to elect to purchase all (but not less than all) of the ROFR Offering Interests by delivering a written notice (a “ROFR Exercise Notice”) to the ROFR Offering Member and the Company stating that it elects to purchase such ROFR Offering Interests on the terms specified in the ROFR Offering Member Notice. Any ROFR Exercise Notice shall be binding upon delivery and irrevocable by the applicable ROFR Rightholder. If more than one ROFR Rightholder delivers a ROFR Exercise Notice, each such ROFR Rightholder (the “ROFR Purchasing Member”) shall be allocated its Pro Rata Portion of the ROFR Offering Interests, unless otherwise agreed by such ROFR Purchasing Members.

(ii) Each ROFR Rightholder that does not deliver a ROFR Exercise Notice during the ROFR Notice Period shall be deemed to have waived all of such ROFR Rightholder’s rights to purchase the ROFR Offering Interests under this Section 9.03, and the ROFR Offering Member shall thereafter subject to Section 9.03(d) and to the rights of any Purchasing Member, be free to Transfer the ROFR Offering Interests to the Independent Third Party specified in the Offer Notice without any further obligation to such ROFR Rightholder pursuant to this Section 9.03.

(d) Sale to Independent Third Party. If no ROFR Rightholder delivers a ROFR Exercise Notice in accordance with Section 9.03(c), the ROFR Offering Member may, during the sixty (60) Business Day period immediately following the expiration of the ROFR Notice Period (which sixty (60) Business Day period may be extended for a reasonable time not to exceed ninety (90) Business Days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any Government Approvals) (the “ROFR Transfer Period”), and subject to the provisions of Section 9.04 and 9.05, Transfer all of the ROFR Offering Interests to the Independent Third Party on terms and conditions no more favorable to the Independent Third Party than those specified in the ROFR Offering Member Notice.

If any Member delivers a ROFR Exercise Notice to the ROFR Offering Member and the Company in accordance with Section 9.03(c)(i), the ROFR Offering Member shall Transfer to each such Purchasing Member, and each such Purchasing Member shall purchase from the ROFR Offering Member, within the ROFR Transfer Period and on the terms and conditions set forth in such Purchasing Member’s ROFR Exercise Notice, all of the ROFR Offering Interests described therein or, if there is more than one Purchasing Member, the amount of ROFR Offering Interests allocated to such Purchasing Member pursuant to Section 9.03(c)(i).

The fees and expenses of the Tag-Along Selling Member incurred in connection with a Tag-Along Sale for the benefit the Tag-Along Selling Member and all Tag-Along Participating Members (it being understood that costs incurred by or on behalf of the Tag-Along Selling Member for its sole benefit will not be considered to be for the benefit of all Tag-Along Participating Members), to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the Company or the Tag-Along Proposed Transferee, shall be shared by the Tag-Along Selling Member and all the Tag-Along Participating Members on a pro rata basis, based on the consideration received by each such Member; provided, that no such Tag-Along Participating Member shall be obligated to make any out-of-pocket expenditure prior to the consummation of the Tag-Along Sale.

(g) Cooperation. The Tag-Along Selling Member and each Tag-Along Participating Member shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the Tag-Along Sale, including, without limitation, entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments, in each case, consistent with the agreements being entered into and the certificates being delivered by the Tag-Along Selling Member.

The failure of any Buy-Sell Responding Member to deliver the Buy-Sell Response Notice by the Buy-Sell Election Date shall be deemed to be an election to sell all of its Membership Interests to the Buy-Sell Purchasing Members at the Buy-Sell Purchase Price.

(i) If one or more of the Buy-Sell Responding Members elect or are deemed to elect to be Selling Members, and one or more of the Buy-Sell Responding Members elect to be Buy-Sell Purchasing Members, then the Selling Members will sell their Membership Interests to the Buy-Sell Purchasing Members, and the Buy-Sell Purchasing Members shall purchase such Membership Interests pro rata based on the aggregate Membership Interests owned by the Buy-Sell Purchasing Members.

(ii) If all of the Buy-Sell Responding Members elect or are deemed to elect to be Selling Members, then the Selling Members will sell their Membership Interests to the Buy-Sell Initiating Member as the sole Purchasing Member, and the Buy-Sell Initiating Member shall purchase all of the Membership Interests of the Selling Members.

(d) Closing. The closing of any purchase and sale of Membership Interests pursuant to this Agreement shall take place thirty (30) days after the last Buy-Sell Response Notice is delivered or deemed to have been delivered or some other date mutually agreed upon by the parties. The Buy-Sell Purchase Price shall be paid at closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by each of the Selling Members. At the closing, each of the Selling Members shall deliver to each of the Buy-Sell Purchasing Members good and marketable title to such Purchasing Member’s pro rata portion of such Selling Member’s Membership Interests, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances. Each Member agrees to cooperate and take all actions and execute all documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to reflect the purchase of the Selling Members’ Membership Interests by the Buy-Sell Purchasing Members.

(e) Default.

(i) If any Purchasing Member fails to purchase and pay for any Membership Interests as and when provided in the preceding provisions of this Section 9.07, then the non-defaulting Buy-Sell Purchasing Members, pro rata based on the relative Membership Interests of all non-defaulting Buy-Sell Purchasing Members electing to purchase the defaulting Purchasing Member’s Membership Interest or as they might otherwise agree, at their election by notice to the defaulting Purchasing Member at any time on or prior to the thirtieth (30^th) day after the date the sale was to have been consummated, may elect to purchase the Membership Interests of the defaulting Purchasing Member at the Buy-Sell Purchase Price (such amount, the “Default Purchase Price”). All non-defaulting Buy-Sell Purchasing Members shall also purchase their pro rata portion of the Selling Members’ interests that were to be purchased by the defaulting Purchasing Member, at the Buy-Sell Purchase Price.

(ii) If no non-defaulting Buy-Sell Purchasing Members elect to purchase the defaulting Purchasing Member’s Membership Interest pursuant to Section 9.08(e)(i), the Selling Members, pro rata based on the relative Membership Interests of all Default Purchase Selling Members immediately prior to the exercise of the buy-sell right or as they might otherwise agree, at their election by notice to the defaulting Purchasing Member at any time on or prior to the thirtieth (30^th) day after the earlier of (i) the date the sale was to have been consummated, or (ii) the date that the non-defaulting Buy-Sell Purchasing Members decline or are deemed to have declined to purchase the defaulting Purchasing Member’s interests in accordance with this Section 9.08(e), may elect to purchase the defaulting Purchasing Member’s Membership Interests at the Default Purchase Price. Notwithstanding any election not to purchase the defaulting Purchasing Member’s Membership Interest, the non-defaulting Buy-Sell Purchasing Members shall purchase their pro rata portion of the Membership Interests owned by any Default Non-Purchasing Selling Members. Such Default Non-Purchasing Selling Members’ interests shall be purchased at the Buy-Sell Purchase Price. The non-defaulting Buy-Sell Purchasing Members shall not be required or entitled to purchase the Membership Interests owned by any Default Purchasing Selling Member.

(iii) If there are no Buy-Sell Purchasing Members other than the defaulting Purchasing Member, the Selling Members, pro rata based on the relative Membership Interests of all Default Purchase Selling Members immediately prior to the exercise of the buy-sell right or as they might otherwise agree, at their election by notice to the defaulting Purchasing Member at any time on or prior to the thirtieth (30^th) day after the earlier of (x) the date the sale was to have been consummated, or (y) the date that the non-defaulting Buy-Sell Purchasing Members decline or are deemed to have declined to purchase the defaulting Purchasing Member’s interests in accordance with this Section 9.08(e), may elect to purchase the defaulting Purchasing Member’s Membership Interest at the Default Purchase Price.

(A) If none of the Selling Members elect to purchase the defaulting Purchasing Member’s Membership Interest within the time period specified, no Membership Interests shall be purchased or sold and all Investor Members shall retain their respective Membership Interests as if the buy-sell right in this ARTICLE IX had not been exercised.

If no Default Purchase Selling Members so elect to purchase the Default Non-Purchasing Selling Members’ Membership Interests, such Non-Purchasing Selling Members shall retain their Membership Interests as if the buy-sell right in this ARTICLE IX had not been exercised.

(iv) The closing of any purchase and sale under this Section 9.08 otherwise shall occur as provided in Section 9.08(d) but with any time periods measured from the date of the notice under this Section 9.08(e).

COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS OF THE MEMBERS

Section 10.01 Confidentiality.

(a) Each Member acknowledges that it may have access to and become acquainted with trade secrets, proprietary information, and confidential information belonging to the Company that are not generally known to the public, including information concerning business plans, financial statements, and other information provided pursuant to this Agreement, operating practices and methods, expansion plans, strategic plans, marketing plans, contracts, customer lists, or other business documents that the Company treat as confidential, in any format whatsoever (including oral, written, electronic, or any other form or medium) (collectively, “Confidential Information”). In addition, each Member acknowledges that: (i) the Company has invested, and continue to invest, substantial time, expense, and specialized knowledge in developing its Confidential Information; (ii) the Confidential Information provides the Company with a competitive advantage over others in the marketplace; and (iii) the Company would be irreparably harmed if the Confidential Information were disclosed to competitors or made available to the public. Without limiting the applicability of any other agreement to which any Member is subject, no Member shall, directly or indirectly, disclose or use (other than in connection with the conduct of the Company’s business or the monitoring of its investment in the Company), including use for personal, commercial, or proprietary advantage or profit, either during its association with the Company or thereafter, any Confidential Information of which such Member is or becomes aware. Each Member in possession of Confidential Information shall take all appropriate steps to safeguard such information and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss, and theft.

(b) Nothing contained in Section 10.01(a) shall prevent any Member from disclosing Confidential Information: (i) upon the order of any Governmental Authority; (ii) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Member; (iii) to the extent compelled by legal process or required or requested pursuant to subpoena, interrogatories, or other discovery requests; (iv) to the extent necessary to assert any right or defend any claim arising under this Agreement; (v) to the other Members; or (vi) to such Member’s Affiliates or Representatives who, in the reasonable judgment of such Member, need to know such Confidential Information and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.01 as if a Member; or (vii) to any potential Permitted Transferee in connection with a proposed Transfer of the Membership Interest of such Member in accordance with this Agreement, as long as such potential Transferee shall have agreed to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.01 as if a Member; provided, that in the case of clauses (i), (ii), or (iii), such Member shall notify the Company and the other Members of the proposed disclosure as far in advance of such disclosure as practicable (but in no event make any such disclosure before notifying the Company and the other Members) and use reasonable efforts to ensure that any Confidential Information so disclosed is accorded confidential treatment satisfactory to the Company and the other Members, when and if available.

(c) The restrictions of Section 10.01 shall not apply to Confidential Information that: (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by such Member or its Affiliate or Representative in violation of this Agreement; (ii) is or has been independently developed or conceived by such Member or its Affiliate without use of Confidential Information; or (iii) becomes available to such Member or any of its Affiliates or Representatives on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company, the other Members, or any of their respective Representatives, provided, that such source is not known by the receiving Member to be bound by a confidentiality agreement regarding the Company.

(d) The obligations of each Member under this Section 10.01 shall survive for so long as such Member or its Permitted Transferee remains a Member, and thereafter for one (1) year following the earlier of (i) the termination, dissolution, liquidation, and winding up of the Company and (ii) such Member’s or its Permitted Transferee’s Transfer of its Membership Interest pursuant to ARTICLE IX.

Section 10.02 Non-Solicitation.

(a) In light of each Member’s access to Confidential Information and position of trust and confidence with the Company, each Member hereby agrees that, for so long as it or its Permitted Transferee, directly or indirectly, owns a Membership Interest and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter (the “Restricted Period”), such Member shall not (and it shall cause its controlled Affiliates) directly or indirectly through one or more of any of its controlled Affiliates, hire or solicit, or encourage any other Person to hire or solicit, any individual who has been employed by the Company within one (1) year prior to the date of such hiring or solicitation, or encourage any such individual to leave such employment. This Section 10.02(a) shall not prevent a Member or its controlled Affiliates from hiring or soliciting any employee or former employee of the Company who responds to a general solicitation that is a public solicitation of prospective employees and not directed specifically to any Company employees.

(b) In light of each Member’s access to Confidential Information and position of trust and confidence with the Company, each Member further agrees that, during the Restricted Period, it shall not, directly or indirectly through one or more of any of its controlled Affiliates, solicit or entice, or attempt to solicit or entice, any clients, customers, or suppliers of the Company for purposes of diverting their business or services from the Company.

(c) Each Member acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 10.02 would give rise to irreparable harm to the other Member and the Company, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by such Member of any such obligations, the other Members and the Company shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance, as well as an equitable account of all earnings, profits, and other benefits arising from any such breach, and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).

(d) Each Member acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 10.02 are reasonable and necessary to protect the Members’ legitimate interests and constitute a material inducement to the other Member to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. If any court of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the covenants set forth in this Section 10.02, or any part thereof, is unenforceable because of the duration or geographic scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to modify any such unenforceable provision in lieu of severing such unenforceable provision from this Agreement in its entirety, whether by rewriting the offending provision, deleting any or all of the offending provision, adding additional language to this Section 10.02, or by making such other modifications as it deems warranted to carry out the intent and agreement of the parties, as embodied herein, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law. The parties hereto expressly agree that this Agreement as so modified by the court shall be binding on and enforceable against each of them.

Section 10.03 Change of Control Notice. In the event of a Change of Control of a Member, such Member shall promptly, but not later than three (3) Business Days following such Change of Control, notify the other Member in writing thereof (a “Change of Control Notice”), setting forth the date and identity of the party or parties that have acquired control of such Member.

Section 10.04 Related-Party Agreements. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into, enter into any commitment to enter into, extend, amend in any material respect, waive, supplement, or terminate (other than pursuant to its terms) any Related-Party Agreement unless approved by the Board.

ARTICLE XI

(a) As soon as available, and in any event within ninety (90) days after the end of each Fiscal Year, audited consolidated balance sheets of the Company as at the end of each such Fiscal Year and audited consolidated statements of income, cash flows, and Members’ equity for such Fiscal Year, in each case setting forth in comparative form the figures for the previous Fiscal Year, accompanied by the certification of independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing selected by the Board in accordance with Section 7.02(b)(xiii), certifying to the effect that, except as set forth therein, such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied on a basis consistent with prior years, and fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of their operations and changes in their cash flows and Members’ equity for the periods covered thereby.

(b) As soon as available, and in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end of each quarterly accounting period in each Fiscal Year (other than the last fiscal quarter of the Fiscal Year), unaudited consolidated balance sheets of the Company as at the end of each such fiscal quarter and for the current Fiscal Year to date and unaudited consolidated statements of income, cash flows, and Members’ equity for such fiscal quarter and for the current Fiscal Year to date, in each case setting forth in comparative form the figures for the corresponding periods of the previous fiscal quarter, all in reasonable detail and all prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of notes thereto), and certified by the principal financial or accounting officer of the Company.

(c) As soon as available, and in any event within thirty (30) days after the end of each monthly accounting period in each fiscal quarter (other than the last month of the fiscal quarter), unaudited consolidated balance sheets of the Company as at the end of each such monthly period and for the current Fiscal Year to date and unaudited consolidated statements of income, cash flows, and Members’ equity for each such monthly period and for the current Fiscal Year to date, all in reasonable detail and all prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of notes thereto).

Section 11.02 Inspection Rights. Subject to Section 10.01, upon reasonable notice from a Member, the Company shall afford such Member and its Representatives access during normal business hours to:

(a) the corporate, financial, and similar records, reports, and documents of the Company, including all books and records, minutes of proceedings, internal management documents, reports of operations, reports of adverse developments, and copies of any management letters and communications with Members (which right of access shall include the right to examine such documents and to make copies thereof or extracts therefrom); and

(b) any Officers, senior employees, and accountants of the Company for the purpose of discussing and advising on the affairs, finances, and accounts of the Company (and the Company hereby authorizes each such Officer, senior employee, and accountant to engage in such discussions with such Member and its Representatives);

provided, however, that (i) a requesting Member shall bear its own and its Representatives’ expenses and all reasonable expenses incurred by the Company in connection with any inspection or examination requested by such Member pursuant to this Section 11.02; and (ii) if the Company provides or makes available any report or written analysis to or for any Member or Representative of such Member pursuant to this Section 11.02, it shall promptly provide or make available such report or analysis to or for the other Member.

Section 11.03 Income Tax Status. It is the intent of the Company and the Members that the Company shall be treated as a partnership for U.S., federal, state, and local income tax purposes. Neither the Company nor any Member shall make an election for the Company to be classified as other than a partnership pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3.

Section 11.04 Tax Matters Representative.

(a) The Members hereby appoint the Majority Member as the “partnership representative” as provided in Code Section 6223(a) (the “Tax Matters Representative”). The Tax Matters Representative shall appoint an individual (the “Designated Individual”) meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 301.6223-1(c)(3) as the sole person authorized to represent the Tax Matters Representative in audits and other proceedings governed by the partnership audit procedures set forth in Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code as amended by the BBA (the “Revised Partnership Audit Rules”). The Tax Matters Representative shall resign if it is a Defaulting Member or if it is no longer a Member. In the event of the resignation of the Tax Matters Representative, the Majority Member shall select a replacement. Any person appointed as the Designated Individual shall be subject to the requirements and obligations of the Tax Matters Representative for purposes of this Section 11.04.

(b) The Tax Matters Representative is authorized and required to represent the Company in connection with all examinations of the Company’s affairs by Taxing Authorities, including resulting administrative and judicial proceedings, and to expend Company funds for professional services and costs associated therewith. The Tax Matters Representative shall promptly notify the Members in writing of the commencement of any tax audit of the Company, upon receipt of a tax assessment and upon the receipt of a notice of final partnership adjustment, and shall keep the Member reasonably informed of the status of any tax audit and resulting administrative and judicial proceedings.

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable law and regulations, the Tax Matters Representative will cause the Company to annually elect out of the Revised Partnership Audit Rules pursuant to Code Section 6221(b). For any year in which applicable law and regulations do not permit the Company to elect out of the Revised Partnership Audit Rules, then within forty-five (45) days of any notice of final partnership adjustment, the Tax Matters Representative will cause the Company to elect the alternative procedure under Code Section 6226, and furnish to the Internal Revenue Service and each Member during the year or years to which the notice of final partnership adjustment relates a statement of the Member’s share of any adjustment set forth in the notice of final partnership adjustment.

(d) Each Member agrees that such Member shall not treat any Company item inconsistently on such Member’s federal, state, foreign, or other income tax return with the treatment of the item on the Company’s return. Any deficiency for taxes imposed on any Member (including penalties, additions to tax or interest imposed with respect to such taxes, and any taxes imposed pursuant to Code Section 6226) will be paid by such Member and if required to be paid (and actually paid) by the Company, will be recoverable from such Member as provided in Section 6.02(d).

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Tax Matters Representative or the Designated Individual in carrying out their responsibilities and duties in such capacities under this Agreement shall be an expense of the Company for which the Tax Matters Representative or the Designated Individual shall be reimbursed by the Company.

(f) The Tax Matters Representative will make an election under Code Section 754, if requested in writing by a Member.

(g) The provisions of this Section 11.04 and the obligations of a Member or former Member pursuant to Section 11.04 shall survive the termination, dissolution, liquidation, and winding up of the Company and the Transfer of a Member’s Membership Interest.

Section 11.05 Tax Returns. At the expense of the Company, the Board (or any Officer that it may designate) shall endeavor to cause the preparation and timely filing (including extensions) of all tax returns required to be filed by the Company pursuant to the Code as well as all other required tax returns in each jurisdiction in which the Company owns property or does business. The Partnership Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the other Member, for its review and comment, copies of all tax returns at least thirty (30) days prior to the filing thereof. If the other Member shall object to any item on any such tax return, the Partnership Representative shall consider such item in good faith. As soon as reasonably possible after the end of each Fiscal Year, the Board or designated Officer will cause to be delivered to each Person who was a Member at any time during such Fiscal Year, IRS Schedule K-1 to Form 1065 and such other information with respect to the Company as may be necessary for the preparation of such Person’s federal, state, and local income tax returns for such Fiscal Year.

Section 11.06 Company Funds. All funds of the Company shall be deposited in its name in such checking, savings, or other bank accounts, or held in its name in the form of such other investments as shall be designated by the Board. The funds of the Company shall not be commingled with the funds of any other Person. All withdrawals of such deposits or liquidations of such investments by the Company shall be made exclusively upon the signature or signatures of such Officer or Officers as the Board may designate.

ARTICLE XII
Dissolution and Liquidation

Section 12.01 Events of Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs wound up only upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

(a) The unanimous determination of the Members to dissolve the Company;

(b) The Bankruptcy or Dissolution of a Member, unless within ten (10) days after the occurrence of such Bankruptcy or Dissolution, the other Member agrees in writing to continue the business of the Company;

(c) At the election of a Member that is not a Defaulting Member, acting in its sole discretion, made at such time as the other Member is a Defaulting Member (and without limitation of any other rights or remedies that may be available to such electing Member);

(d) The sale, exchange, involuntary conversion, or other disposition or transfer of all or substantially all the assets of the Company; or

(e) The entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 86.491 of the Act.

Section 12.02 Effectiveness of Dissolution. Dissolution of the Company shall be effective on the day on which the event described in Section 12.01 occurs, but the Company shall not terminate until the winding up of the Company has been completed, the assets of the Company have been distributed as provided in Section 12.03, and the Articles of Formation shall have been cancelled as provided in Section 12.04.

Section 12.03 Liquidation. If the Company is dissolved pursuant to Section 12.01, the Company shall be liquidated and its business and affairs wound up in accordance with the Act and the following provisions:

(a) The Board shall act as liquidator to wind up the Company (the “Liquidator”). The Liquidator shall have full power and authority to sell, assign, and encumber any or all of the Company’s assets and to wind up and liquidate the affairs of the Company in an orderly and business-like manner; provided that, if the Board is the Liquidator, it shall act in accordance with the governance provisions in ARTICLE VII until the winding up occurs.

(b) As promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final liquidation, the Liquidator shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public accountants of the Company’s assets, liabilities, and operations through the last day of the calendar month in which the dissolution occurs or the final liquidation is completed, as applicable.

(c) The Liquidator shall liquidate the assets of the Company and distribute the proceeds of such liquidation in the following order of priority, unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of Applicable Law:

(i) first, to the payment of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities to its creditors (including Members, if applicable) and the expenses of liquidation (including sales commissions incident to any sales of assets of the Company);

(ii) second, to the establishment of and additions to reserves that are determined by the Liquidator to be reasonably necessary for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company; and

(iii) third, to the Members in accordance with the positive balances in their respective Capital Accounts, as determined after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for the taxable year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Company occurs.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 12.03(c) that require the liquidation of the assets of the Company, but subject to the order of priorities set forth in Section 12.03(c), if upon dissolution of the Company the Liquidator reasonably determines that an immediate sale of part or all of the Company’s assets would be impractical or could cause undue loss to the Members, the Liquidator may defer the liquidation of any assets except those necessary to satisfy Company liabilities and reserves, and may, upon unanimous consent of the Members, distribute to the Members, in lieu of cash, as tenants in common and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.03(c), undivided interests in such Company assets as the Liquidator deems not suitable for liquidation. Any such distribution in kind shall be subject to such conditions relating to the disposition and management of such properties as the Liquidator deems reasonable and equitable and to any agreements governing the operation of such properties at such time. For purposes of any such distribution, any property to be distributed will be valued at its Fair Market Value, as determined by the Liquidator in good faith.

Section 12.04 Cancellation of Certificate. Upon completion of the distribution of the assets of the Company as provided in Section 12.03(c), the Company shall be terminated and the Liquidator shall cause the cancellation of the Articles of Formation in the State of Nevada and of all qualifications and registrations of the Company as a foreign limited liability company in jurisdictions other than the State of Nevada and shall take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Company.

Section 12.05 Survival of Rights, Duties and Obligations. Dissolution, liquidation, winding up, or termination of the Company for any reason shall not release any party from any Loss that at the time of such dissolution, liquidation, winding up, or termination already had accrued to any other party or thereafter may accrue in respect of any act or omission prior to such dissolution, liquidation, winding up, or termination. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the foregoing shall replace, diminish, or otherwise adversely affect any Member’s right to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.03.

Section 12.06 Recourse for Claims. Each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for all distributions with respect to the Company, such Member’s Capital Account, and such Member’s share of Net Income, Net Loss, and other items of income, gain, loss, and deduction, and shall have no recourse therefor (upon dissolution or otherwise) against the Liquidator or any other Member.

Section 13.09 Amendment. No provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified except by an instrument in writing executed by both Members.

Service of process, summons, notice, or other document by registered mail to the address set forth in Section 13.03 shall be effective service of process for any suit, action, or other proceeding brought in any such court.

Section 13.14 Equitable Remedies. Each party hereto acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach by such party of any of its obligations under this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm to the other parties, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by such party of any such obligations, each of the other parties hereto shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to them in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).
