2.6 Rights of Dissociating Member. Except as noted in Section 2.10 below, in the event any Member resigns, dies, withdraws or becomes dissociated pursuant to Section 2.5 (a “Dissociated Member”):

(a) If the dissociation causes a dissolution and winding up of the Company under Article XIV, the Dissociated Member shall be entitled to participate in the winding up of the Company to the same extent as any other Member;

2.9 Divorce of Member. If any Member, or such Member's spouse, shall file a petition for divorce or institute any other legal proceedings for the termination of marriage, the following procedures shall apply:

(a) The Member's interest in the Units and spouse’s spousal interest in the Units shall be reflected on their respective inventories of marital and separate assets.

(b) If such Member's spouse is not already a Member of the Company:

(i) the Member shall negotiate and seek, and spouse agrees to accept, an order for the division of marital and separate property such that the Member receives the entire spousal interest in the Units in exchange for awarding to spouse other marital and separate assets in which the Member has an interest that have a value approximately equal to the spousal interest.

(ii) If the marriage of the Member and his or her spouse is terminated by divorce or annulment, and Member does not obtain all of his or her spouse’s interest in the Units incident to the divorce or annulment, then the Member and his or her spouse shall simultaneously give written notice to the Company within thirty (30) days after the effective date of the final, non-appealable divorce decree or of the annulment. The written notice shall specify the effective date of termination of the marriage and the number of Units to which any interest retained by or to be transferred to the Member’s former spouse relates. For a period of 60 days after the effective date of termination of the marriage, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary as may be set forth in an order of court of competent jurisdiction, the Member shall have an exclusive option to purchase all or any portion of his or her former spouse’s retained interest in the Units at the purchase price per Unit determined pursuant to Article XII. The Member’s 60-day option shall be exercised by delivering to his or her former spouse and the Company a written notice specifying the number of Units as to which the option is being exercised.

As between the Company and the remaining Members, their purchase obligation shall follow the procedure set forth in Article XII.

(iv) Member and Spouse each expressly agree that the Company may intervene in their divorce or annulment proceeding without their objection for the purpose of enforcing the Company’s and the other Members’ rights under this Section 2.9(b).

(c) If the Member and his or her spouse are each a Member of the Company at the time of the filing and such Members are unable to amicably agree upon the distribution of their respective Units, such Members' interests in the Company shall be determined pursuant to the terms of any such final, non-appealable order of court having jurisdiction over the matter.

2.10 Special Provisions related to Founders’ Units. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the following provisions shall apply upon the death of a Founder:

(a) Xxxxx Xxxxxx or Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx: The Units held by Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx are held jointly as Tenants by the Entireties; therefore, upon the death of either individual, the Units shall continue to be held by the surviving spouse. In the event that both Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx are deceased, their Units shall automatically be transferred, without cost to the Company, to their children who survive them, in equal shares. Inheritance taxes and any other governmental assessments related to the transfer shall not be borne by the Company or the other Members but shall be paid by the transferring Member’s estate.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any will or other testamentary document of Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, upon her death, the Units then held by Xxxxxxx Xxxxx shall be transferred (without cost to the Company) to those children of Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx as shall survive Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, in equal shares. Inheritance taxes and any other governmental assessments related to the transfer shall not be borne by the Company or the other Members but shall be paid by the children of Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx who receive the Units, if such children are no longer minors. In the event that any such children are minors at the time of the transfer, the portion of any such taxes allocable to such minor child or children shall be paid by the guardian of the estate of such child or children (which may be the natural parents thereof).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Majority-in-Interest of the Members agree, any contribution to be made by a Member to the Company may be treated as an advance or loan to the Company or as an Additional Capital Contribution which shall not result in a recomputation of Membership Interests but which may be senior in liquidation and distribution preference to the Membership Interests of the other Members.

3.8 Transferred Capital Accounts. Upon the Transfer of all or any part of a Member’s Units in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including but not limited to Section 12 hereof, the Capital Account of the transferor Member that is attributable to the transferred Units shall carry over and be succeeded by the transferee Member.

3.9 Qualified Income Offset. If, with respect to any taxable year during the term of the Company, a Member receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution of the type described in Section 1.704-(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) of the Treasury Regulations that results in such Member’s Adjusted Capital Account having a negative balance, capital account gross income for that taxable year and all subsequent taxable years shall be allocated to that Member in an amount necessary to eliminate the negative balance in the Member’s adjusted Capital Account as quickly as possible. The provisions of this Section 3.9 are intended to constitute a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(3) of the Regulations and shall be construed in accordance with that intention.

3.10 Maintenance in Accordance with Law. The provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulation §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv), and any successor Treasury Regulations, and Capital Accounts shall be maintained in compliance therewith.

If the Company does not exercise its right of first refusal with respect to all of the Selling Member’s Units that are the subject of the Transfer within the thirty (30) day period set forth in Section 11.2(c), the Members (each a “Purchasing Member”) shall, for a period of thirty (30) days following the expiration of the Company’s right of first refusal, have the right to purchase the Selling Member’s Units that are the subject of the Transfer, at the Purchase Price determined by the terms of Section 11.2(c) above. In the event that more than one of the Purchasing Members wishes to purchase the Selling Member’s Units, the right to purchase shall be allocated among the Purchasing Members who desire to acquire the remaining Selling Member's Units pro rata in proportion to their respective membership interests or as otherwise agreed among them.

(e) Purchasing Member’s Exercise of Right. Each Purchasing Member’s secondary right to purchase the remaining Selling Member’s Units shall be exercisable by delivering a written notice (the “Member Exercise Notice”) to the Selling Member prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day period. Such Member Exercise Notice shall set forth the number of the Selling Member’s Units that the exercising Member desires to purchase.

(f) Full Exercise of Rights. If the purchase rights of the Company and the Purchasing Members are exercised with respect to all of the Selling Member’s Units specified in the Proposed Transfer Notice, then the Company and/or the Purchasing Members (whichever the case may be) shall effect the purchase of the Selling Member’s Units; and the Selling Member shall deliver to the Company and/or Purchasing Member such transfer documentation representing the Selling Member’s Units to be purchased as the purchasers may reasonably require. The closing shall then be held no later than ninety (90) days following the Company’s receipt of the Proposed Transfer Notice.

(g) Partial Exercise of Rights. In the event that the Company and/or the Purchasing Members (whichever the case may be) make a timely exercise of their purchase rights which, in the aggregate, provide for the repurchase of less than all of the Selling Member’s Units specified in the Proposed Transfer Notice, or in the event that the Company and the Purchasing Members do not elect to repurchase any of the Selling Member's Units, the Selling Member may Transfer all, but only all, of the Units not so purchased by the Company and/or the Purchasing Members pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Proposed Transfer Notice; provided, however, if the Selling Member does not Transfer his or her entire Units pursuant to the Proposed Transfer Notice within sixty (60) days after the termination of the repurchase rights created under this Section 11, or in the event that the Company and the Purchasing Members do not elect to repurchase the Selling Member's Units, the Selling Member may not thereafter Transfer his or her Units without again complying with the provisions of this Section 11.

(h) Voting. Any decision by the Company to acquire any Units pursuant to this Section 11 shall be subject to the approval of a Majority-in-Interest of the Members, provided that the Member whose Units are for sale shall not be entitled to vote.

(i) Rights of Transferee. In the event that the Selling Member Transfers any or all of his or her Units to a transferee in accordance with this Section 11, such transferee shall have no right to vote or to participate in the management of the business and affairs of the Company or to become a Member unless such transferee executes and becomes a party to this Agreement.

ARTICLE XII

INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

12.1 Indemnification.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by the Act and by law, the Officers and Members (herein referred to as “Indemnitees”) shall, in accordance with this Section 12.1 be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any and all loss, claims, damages, liabilities joint and several, expenses, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims (including reasonable legal expenses), demands, actions, suits or proceedings (civil, criminal, administrative or investigative) in which they may be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of their management of, or involvement in, the affairs of the Company, or rendering of advice or consultation with respect thereto, or which relate to the Company, its properties, business or affairs, if such Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner such Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct of such Indemnitee was unlawful. The termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company or that the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful (unless there has been a final adjudication in the proceeding that the Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company; or that the Indemnitee did have reasonable cause to believe that the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful).

(b) The Company may also indemnify any Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such Person is or was an officer, employee or agent of the Company, against expenses actually or reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action, if such Person acted in good faith and in a manner such Person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, except that indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such Person shall have been adjudged to be liable for misconduct in the performance of the Person’s duty to the Company only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought, or another court of appropriate jurisdiction, determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all circumstances of the case, such Person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper. To the extent that the Person has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any proceedings referred to herein, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the Person shall be indemnified by the Company against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Person in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder for any conduct arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person or reckless disregard in the performance of its duties hereunder.

(c) Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in defending any proceeding under Sections 12.1(a) or (b) may be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee or Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the Indemnitee or Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized hereunder.

(d) The indemnification provided by this Section 12.1 shall not be deemed to be exclusive, of any other rights to which any Person may be entitled under any agreement, or as a matter of law, or otherwise, both as to action in a Person’s official capacity and to action in another capacity.

(e) The Officers shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of the Company, the Officers, employees or agents of the Company and any other Indemnitees at the expense of the Company, against any liability asserted against or incurred by them in any such capacity whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such Persons against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.

12.2 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company; and no Officer or Member shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company solely be reason of being an Officer or Member of the Company.

ARTICLE XIII
