|
10.2 |
Additional Capital Contributions. |
(a) Capital Call. In the event a majority of the Managers determine that additional capital contributions by the Members are needed for any reason, each Member may contribute an amount of cash to the capital of the Company equal to the aggregate additional capital contribution determined by a majority of the Managers (the “Total Required Capital Call Amount”) multiplied by such Member’s Percentage Interests (the “Additional Capital Contribution”). Any such Additional Capital Contribution shall be made in the time and manner determined by a majority of the Managers. The amount of any Additional Capital Contribution made by each contributing Member (each a “Contributing Member”) shall be credited to the Capital Account of such Contributing Member. The total amount of capital contributed to the Company by the Contributing Member of Members, if any, pursuant to this Section 10.2(a) and Section 10.2(b), if any, shall be referred to as the “Total Capital Contributed.” In the event one or more Members fail to make an Additional Capital Contribution (each a “Non-Contributing Member”), the Capital Call Deficit may be raised by the Company pursuant to Section 10.2(b).
(b) In the event a Capital Call Deficit exists, notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, a majority of the Managers shall have the right to issue additional Interests of the Company (having a total fair market value equal to the Capital Call Deficit) (the “Additional Interests”) to the Contributing Member or Members, if any, at a price equal to the fair market value of the Additional Interests, as determined by a majority of the Managers. Each Contributing Member shall have the right to purchase a percentage of the Additional Interests that corresponds with such Contributing Member’s pro rata portion of the Total Capital Contributed (the “First Additional Round of Capital Calls”). The issuance of the Additional Interests to the Contributing Members will reduce the percentage of the Interests owned by the Non-Contributing Members. To the extent that a Capital Call Deficit exists after the First Additional Round of Capital Calls, additional rounds of capital calls shall take place in accordance with the provisions set forth above in the First Additional Round of Capital Calls until either no Capital Call Deficit exists or no Contributing Member desires to purchase Additional Interests. In the event that there are any remaining Additional Interests after all necessary rounds of capital calls, the Additional Interests may be sold to third parties who are not Members at the same price offered to the Members under this Section 10.2(b).
(c) Other Contributions. Except as provided in Sections 10.1, 10.2(a), and 10.2(b), no Member may contribute any cash or property to the capital of the Company after formation unless the Managers approve such contribution.
10.3 Payment of Operating Costs. If the Company is unable to pay its Operating Costs, any Member may, with the approval of the Managers, advance funds (the “Operating Advances”) to the Company. The Operating Advances, if any, shall constitute unsecured loans to the Company and shall bear an interest rate as determined by a majority of the Managers. Any Member loaning money to the Company shall have the same rights under this Agreement, regarding the loan as would any person or entity making a loan that is not a Member of the Company and shall be repaid prior to any distributions to the Members, provided the Members in
their discretion may waive this right to be repaid prior to the payment of distributions to the Members. No Member is under any obligation to make any loan or advance to the Company.
10.4 Withdrawal of Capital Contributions. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member shall have the right to (a) withdraw its Capital Contributions, (b) demand or receive property other than cash in return for Capital Contributions, or (c) receive priority over any other Member as to the return of Capital Contributions or as to Net Profits, Net Losses, or distributions.
10.5 Return of Contributions. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member or Manager shall be personally liable for the return of any Capital Contributions of any Member and any return of Capital Contributions shall be made solely from the assets of the Company.
ARTICLE XI
NET PROFITS, NET LOSSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS
11.1 Sharing of Net Profits and Net Losses. The Net Profits and Net Losses of the Company shall be credited and charged to the Capital Accounts of the Members based on their respective Percentage Interests. No Member shall be allocated any Net Losses for any year to the extent that the allocation would, as of the end of the year, create or increase a deficit in the Member’s Capital Account, after it has been reduced for any items of loss or expense described in Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) of the Treasury Regulations and increased by any amount the Member is obligated to restore under the next to the last sentences of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704.2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5) (“Deficit Member”). The foregoing provisions pertaining to adjustments to Capital Accounts are intended to satisfy the alternate test for economic effects set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. Net Losses which are not charged to a Deficit Member as a result of the foregoing shall be allocated to the Capital Accounts of any Members who would not have a deficit Capital Account as a result of the allocation, in proportion to their respective positive Capital Account balances or, if no such Members exist, then to all Members in accordance with the above allocations. If any Net Losses are so allocated to a Member, that Member subsequently shall be allocated all Net Profits which would otherwise have been allocated to a Deficit Member but for this sentence, until the aggregate amount of Net Profits so allocated equals the aggregate amount of Net Losses allocated to the Member pursuant to the preceding sentence.
11.2 Qualified Income Offset. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Company income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Company income, including gross income, and gain for the year) shall be specially allocated to the Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balance in the Member’s Capital Account as quickly as practicable. This provision is intended to constitute a “qualified income offset” under Treasury Regulation 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).
11.3 Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if there is a net decrease in Company minimum gain in any year, each Member will be allocated items of income and gain for the year equal to that Member’s share of the “net decrease in partnership minimum gain” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(g)(2). The amount of the Company’s minimum gain shall be determined as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(d), and a Member’s share of Company minimum gain shall be determined as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(g)(2). This provision is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted and applied consistently therewith.
11.4 Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall allocate its Member Nonrecourse Deductions (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(2)) solely to the Member who has the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt related thereto under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(1).
11.5 Distributions from Company. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Net Cash Flow, if any, may be distributed to Members from time to time as determined by the Managers. To the extent determined by the Managers, the distributions shall be paid to the Members in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. The Managers shall establish reasonable reserves for working capital, capital expenditures and contingencies.
11.6 Nonliquidating Distributions In Kind. In the event of any nonliquidating distribution of property in kind, the distributed property shall be treated as if sold for its fair market value during the year in which the property is distributed, as reasonably determined by the Managers, and the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to reflect any gain or loss which would have been realized on the books of the Company had the property been sold for its fair market value and the proceeds received.
11.7 Restrictions on Distributions. No distribution from the Company to a Member may be made if, after giving effect to the distribution, the Company would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or the Company’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no distributions shall be made by the Company at any time when the terms and provisions of any loan agreement or any similar agreement to which the Company is then a party and which is then in effect, specifically prohibits such distribution, or would constitute a breach thereof or a default (or event which with notice or the passage of time, or both, could become an event of default) thereunder.
ARTICLE XII
DISSOLUTION
12.1 Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved and terminated on the first to occur of the following events:
(a) Upon the approval of a Super Majority in Interest of Members in accordance with Section 4.5;
(b) if, after the death, incapacity or bankruptcy of a Member or other event which terminates the continued membership of a Member in the Company, all of the remaining Members within ninety (90) days following the occurrence of any such event elect in writing to dissolve and terminate the Company (if such election is not timely made, the Company will continue); or
(c) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution pursuant to Section 18-802 of the Act.
12.2 Liquidating Agent. Upon dissolution of the Company, the Liquidating Agent shall act to liquidate the Company. The Liquidating Agent shall have the authority, in its discretion, to sell the assets of the Company or distribute any other part of the assets in kind. To the extent the Liquidating Agent distributes assets in kind, the assets shall be treated as if sold for fair market value during the year in which the assets are distributed, as reasonably determined by the Liquidating Agent, and the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to reflect any gain or loss which would have been realized had the assets been sold for fair market value and the proceeds received, it being intended that no different treatment of a Member shall result from a decision to distribute assets in kind rather than to sell assets. Net Profits and Net Losses realized during liquidation shall be credited and charged to the Members in the same shares and proportions as if realized during the year in which liquidation occurs.
12.3. Payment of Debts. Upon dissolution of the Company, the debts and obligations of the Company, including liabilities to Members, shall be paid and discharged. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Capital Accounts of the Members shall not be considered debts or obligations of the Company.
|
12.4 |
Liquidating Distributions. |
(a) After payment of all debts and obligations and the establishment of an adequate reserve for contingencies, the remaining funds shall be distributed first to all of the Members in accordance with the positive balances in their Capital Accounts (after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for the Company’s taxable year during which liquidation occurs); and
(b) Any such distributions to the Members in respect of their Capital Accounts shall be made in accordance with the time requirements set forth in Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. Upon a liquidation within the meaning of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g) of the Treasury Regulations, if any Member has a deficit Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, allocations and other Capital Account adjustments for all taxable years, including the year in which liquidation occurs), the Member shall have no obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Company, and the negative balance of the Member’s Capital Account shall not be considered a debt of the Member to the Company or to any other person.
12.5 Termination. Upon completion of the liquidation and winding up of the affairs of the Company, the Company shall be terminated. The Managers shall take such action as may be necessary to terminate the Company.
ARTICLE XIII
INCOME TAX ALLOCATIONS AND ELECTIONS
13.1 Allocations. All items of Company income, gain, loss, deduction or credit shall be allocated to the Members in the manner in which such items are shared according to Article XI. In all events, the Members’ distributive shares of Depreciation, amortization, and gain or loss, as computed for federal income tax purposes, with respect to property contributed to the Company, or with respect to Company property which is revalued in accordance with this Agreement and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), shall be determined so as to take into account the variation between the adjusted tax basis and book value of the property as provided in Section 704(c) of the Code. Where the Treasury Regulations provide alternative methods for computing income, gain, loss, or deduction for such purposes, the Managers shall, except as specifically set forth herein, select the method which it determines, in its reasonable judgment, to be the most appropriate for the Company and the Members.
13.2 Section 754 Election. If an interest in the Company is transferred, or distribution of Company property is made to a Member, the Company may, in the discretion of the Managers, file an election pursuant to Section 754 of the Code to cause the basis of Company property to be adjusted for federal income tax purposes as provided by Sections 734 and 743 of the Code. The transferee Member shall reimburse the Company for all accounting expenses incurred by the Company as a result of such election.
13.3 Allocations Upon Sale or Exchange. If a Member sells, exchanges or liquidates all or part of its interest in the Company, the Member’s distributive share of Company income, gain, loss, deduction or credit for the period ending with such sale, exchange or liquidation shall be determined pursuant to any method allowed or permitted under Section 706 of the Code, as determined by the Managers. The transferor shall reimburse the Company for any expenses incurred by the Company in determining the distributive share of the transferor. Each Member agrees to execute such consents or estimates as may be deemed necessary by the Managers in connection with such election.
13.4 Tax Matters Partner. X. X. Xxxxx shall be the “Tax Matters Partner” within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code and shall have all of the powers and duties expressly conferred on the Tax Matters Partner by the Code, as well as those powers and duties that are necessary and proper for the exercise of the Tax Matters Partner’s express powers and duties under the Code.
ARTICLE XIV
TRANSFER OF INTERESTS
14.1 Restrictions on Transfer/Change of Control. Subject to the provisions of this Article XIV, a Member may Transfer any Interests in the Company, with the prior written consent of a Majority in Interest of Members, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any purported Transfer of any Interests in violation of this Agreement shall be void, and shall not transfer any interest or title to the purported transferee. The Company shall not be required to transfer on its books any Interests
Transferred or Encumbered in violation of this Agreement, or to treat the purported transferee as owner of the Interests in any manner.
14.2 Exceptions for Disposition to Other Members, Immediate Family, Trusts and Controlled Affiliates. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any Member may be permitted to Transfer all or part of the Member’s Interests to another Member, by testamentary transfer to an immediate family member, to a trust for the sole benefit of the Member or to a Controlled Affiliate. For this purpose, the immediate family of any Member shall mean his or her lineal descendants or ancestors or spouse. Any existing Member, Controlled Affiliate, or trust for the sole benefit of a Member acquiring an Interest under this Section 14.2 shall be admitted to the Company as a Substituted Member upon the transfer of the Interest, upon agreeing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Any immediate family member who acquires an Interest by testamentary transfer will only be admitted to the Company as a Substituted Member in compliance with Article XIV and upon agreeing to be bound by this Agreement.
14.3 Right of First Refusal. In conjunction with seeking the consent of the Members in accordance with Section 14.1 above, if any Member (the “Selling Member”) desires to sell all or any part of his, her or its respective Interests, such Selling Member shall first deliver to each other Member (collectively, the “Non-Selling Members”) at the same time a binding, executed written notice of the proposed sale (the “Sale Notice”) setting forth the percentage of interest proposed to be sold (the “Sold Membership Interest”), the name and address of the proposed purchaser, the purchase price (which must be an amount specified in dollars, but which may be paid either in a lump sum or in installments over an extended period of time), and all other terms of the proposed sale. Each Non-Selling Member shall be entitled to purchase a percentage of the Sold Membership Interest equal to the percentage that such Non-Selling Member’s Percentage Interest represents to all the Non-Selling Members’ Percentage Interests. A Non-Selling Member shall exercise his, her or its right to purchase such Sold Membership Interest by delivering to the Selling Member a written notice of exercise thirty (30) days after delivery of the Sale Notice to such Non-Selling Member. A Non-Selling Member may also indicate in such notice, if he so elects, his desire to purchase any additional Sold Membership Interest owned by the Selling Member if any other Non-Selling Member does not exercise his right to purchase his part of the Sold Membership Interests. If more than one Non-Selling Member so elects, the additional Sold Membership Interest shall be allocated pro rata to such electing Non-Selling Members based upon the Percentage Interests of such electing Non-Selling Members. If the Non-Selling Members do not elect to purchase all of the Sold Membership Interest and the Transfer has been approved in accordance with Section 14.1 above, the Selling Member may sell the Sold Membership Interest to the person named and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Sale Notice. If the Selling Member fails to sell the Sold Membership Interest within forty-five (45) days after delivery of the Sale Notice, the right shall terminate, and the Selling Member shall not thereafter sell any Interests without again complying with the foregoing procedures.
14.4 Rights of Transferee. Unless admitted as a Member of the Company with the written approval of a Majority in Interest of Members, a transferee shall not be entitled to any of the rights, powers or privileges of its predecessor in interest, except that a transferee shall be entitled to receive and be credited or debited with its proportionate share of the Company’s distributions and tax allocations.
14.5 Admission of Additional Members. No Person may be admitted as an additional Member of the Company without the prior written consent of a Majority in Interest of Members, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any additional Member admitted to the Company shall execute and deliver documentation in form satisfactory to the Managers accepting and agreeing to be bound by this Agreement, and such other documentation as the Managers shall require in order to effect such person’s admission as an additional Member. The admission of any person as an additional Member shall become effective as of the date upon which the name of such person is recorded on the books and records of the Company following the consent of the Members to such admission.

15.15 |
Pre-emptive Rights. |
(a) The Company hereby grants to the Members the right to purchase a percentage of “New Securities” (as defined in Section 15.15(b) below) which the Company, from time to time, proposes to sell or issue. Each Member shall be entitled to purchase up to a percentage of the New Securities which is equal to their Percentage Interests.
(b) Definition of New Securities. “New Securities” shall mean, with respect to securities of the Company, any Interests, whether now authorized or not, and rights, options or warrants to purchase Interests, and securities of any type whatsoever that are or may become convertible into or exchangeable for Interests; provided that the term “New Securities” shall not include: (i) Interests issued upon the conversion of any
debenture, warrant, option, or other convertible security duly authorized and issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; (ii) Interests issuable upon a split, dividend, or any subdivision of Interests; (iii) Interests issued or issuable in connection with acquisitions; (iv) any Additional Interests issued to Contributing Members pursuant to Section 10.2; and (v) any Additional Interests issued to third parties who are not Members pursuant to Section 10.2.
(c) Notice from the Company. In the event the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities, the Company shall give each Member written notice of such proposal, describing the type of New Securities and the price and the terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the same. For a period of thirty (30) days following the delivery of such notice by the Company, the Company shall be deemed to have irrevocably offered to sell to the Members the percentage of New Securities determined in Section 15.15(a) above for the same price and upon the same terms specified in the notice. Each Member may exercise the purchase rights hereunder by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased, which may be less than the relative percentages determined in Section 15.15(a).
(d) Sale by the Company. In the event any Member fails to exercise in full such Member’s purchase right within said thirty (30) day period, the Company shall have ninety (90) days thereafter to sell the portion of New Securities with respect to which the purchase right was not exercised, at a price and upon terms no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Company’s notice given pursuant to Section 15.15(c).
(e) Closing. The closing for any such issuance of New Securities shall take place as proposed by the Company with respect to the New Securities to be issued, at which closing, in the event the Company elects to issue certificates for any New Securities, the Company shall deliver such certificates for the New Securities in the respective names of the purchasing Members against receipt of the consideration therefor; provided, however, that the closing for the purchases by the purchasing Member and the closing for all other purchasers of the New Securities shall be deemed for all purposes to have occurred simultaneously.
