ARTICLE VIII

TRANSFER AND ASSIGNMENT OF INTERESTS

8.1 General.

(1) Transfer.

(a) As used in this Section 8, the term “Transfer” shall refer to any transfer, sale, assignment, exchange, hypothecation, encumbrance, alienation, or other disposition of any Membership Interest or Economic Interest and may be used herein as a noun or a verb.

(b) No Membership Interest or Economic Interest may be Transferred except as provided in this Agreement. Transfers in violation of this Section 8 shall only be effective to the extent set forth in Section 8.3. Any Membership Interest or Economic Interest (or portion thereof) Transferred shall continue to be subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

(c) Furthermore, and in addition to other restrictions contained herein, no Member or Economic Interest Owner shall Transfer all or any part of its Membership Interest or Economic Interest without first complying with all applicable state and federal securities laws, or if the Membership Interest or Economic Interest to be Transferred, when added to the total of all other Membership Interests and Economic Interests Transferred in the preceding twelve (12) consecutive months prior thereto, would cause the termination of the Company under the Code.

(d) Any permitted Transfer of all or any portion of a Membership Interest shall be effective as of the date immediately following the date upon which the requirements of this Agreement have been met.

(2) Substitution of Members. A transferee of a Membership Interest shall have the right to become a substitute Member only if the requirements of this Section 8 are met, the admission of such Person as a substitute Member is unanimously approved by the Members, such Person agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, and such Person pays any reasonable expenses in connection with its admission as a substitute Member. The admission of a substitute Member shall not result in the release of the Member who assigned the Membership Interest from any liability that such Member may have to the Company.

(a) No Effect to Transfers in Violation of Agreement. Transfers in violation of Section 8 shall be null and void and the purported transferee shall not become either a Member or an Economic Interest Owner. Upon any other Transfer of a Membership Interest in violation of this Section 8, the transferee shall have no rights to vote or participate in the management of the business, property and affairs of the Company or to exercise any rights of a Member. Such transferee shall only be entitled to become an Economic Interest Owner and thereafter shall only receive the share of the Company’s Net Profits, Net Losses and distributions of the Company’s assets to which the transferor of such Economic Interest would otherwise be entitled. Upon any Transfer (whether arising out of an attempted charge upon that Member’s Economic Interest by judicial process, a foreclosure by a creditor of the Member or otherwise) of a Member’s Economic Interest which does not at the same time Transfer the balance of the rights associated with the Membership Interest Transferred by the Member (including, without limitation, the rights of the Member to vote or participate in the management of the business,

property and affairs of the Company), the Company shall purchase from the Member, and the Member shall sell to the company for a purchase price of $200, all remaining rights and interests retained by the Member that immediately before the transfer, assignment, conveyance or sale were associated with the transferred Economic Interest. Such purchase and sale shall not, however, result in the release of the Member from any liability to the Company as a Member.

Additional Allocation Provisions

Section 1. Allocations.

1.1 Allocation of Income, Gain, Loss, and Deduction. After making any special allocations pursuant to Sections 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 of this Exhibit B, all items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement.

1.2 Special Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made in the following order:

1.2.1 Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1, if there is a net decrease in minimum gain (“Company Minimum Gain”) during any Company taxable year, as determined under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(d), each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). A Member is not subject to this minimum gain chargeback requirement to the extent (i) the Member’s share in the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain is caused by a guarantee, refinancing, or other change in the debt instrument causing it to become partially or wholly recourse or treated as a “Member Nonrecourse Debt” (having the meaning set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(4) for the phrase “partner nonrecourse debt”) made by such Member or a “Related Person” of such Member (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-4(b)), and the Member bears the economic risk of loss (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-2) for the newly guaranteed, refinanced or otherwise changed liability, (ii) the Member contributes capital to the Company that is used to repay the nonrecourse liability, and the Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain results from such repayment, or (iii) the Company receives consent from the appropriate United States federal taxing authority to waive the minimum gain chargeback requirement of this Section 1.2.1 because such requirement would cause a distortion in the economic arrangement among the Members and it is not expected that the Company will have sufficient other income to correct this distortion. This Section 1.2.1 is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

1.2.2 Member Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1, if there is a net decrease in the minimum gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt (“Member Minimum Gain”) during any Company taxable year, as determined under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i), each Member who has a share of Member Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt made by such Member or a Related Person of such Member to the Company, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain attributable to such Member’s or Related Person’s Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations

Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and (5). The exceptions mentioned above in Section 1.2.1 of this Exhibit B in connection with the minimum gain chargeback shall similarly apply with respect to Member Nonrecourse Debt in appropriate circumstances. This Section 1.2.2 is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

1.2.3 Qualified Income Offset. No Member shall be allocated any item of loss or deduction to the extent such allocation would cause or increase a deficit balance in such Member’s Capital Account (in excess of any limited dollar amount of such deficit balance that such Member is obligated to restore or is deemed obligated to restore under Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5)) as of the end of the taxable year to which such allocation relates). In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, such adjusted Capital Account deficit of such Member as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 1.2.3 shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a Capital Account deficit (determined after reducing such Member’s Capital Account for the items set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and after adjusting such Member’s Capital Account upward for any amounts such Member is obligated to restore or is deemed obligated to restore pursuant to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5)) after all other allocations provided for in this Section 1 have been tentatively made as if this Section 1.2.3 were not in this Exhibit B.

1.2.4 Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Company fiscal year which is in excess of the amount such Member is obligated to restore or is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5), such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 1.2.4 shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a Capital Account deficit (determined after reducing such Member’s Capital Account for the items set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and after adjusting such Member’s Capital Account upward for any amounts such Member is obligated to restore or is deemed obligated to restore pursuant to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5)) in excess of such amount after all other allocations provided for in this Section 1 have been tentatively made as if Section 1.2.3 of this Exhibit B and this Section 1.2.4 were not in this Exhibit B.

1.2.5 Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. For this purpose, “Nonrecourse Deductions” has the meaning set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(c), and the amount of Nonrecourse Deductions for a Company taxable year equals the net increase, if any, in the amount of Company Minimum Gain during such year, reduced (but not below zero) by the aggregate distributions made during the year of proceeds of any nonrecourse liability (as defined under Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-1(a)(2)) that are allocable to an increase in Company Minimum Gain (determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(h)).

1.2.6 Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-2) with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable. For this purpose, “Member Nonrecourse Deductions” has the meaning set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(2) for the phrase “partner nonrecourse deductions”, and for any Company taxable year, the amount of Member Nonrecourse Deductions with respect to a Member Nonrecourse Debt equals the net increase, if any, in the amount of Member Minimum Gain during such year, reduced (but not below zero) by proceeds of the Member Nonrecourse Debt distributed during the year to the Member bearing the economic risk of loss for such debt that are both attributable to the debt and allocable to an increase in the Member Minimum Gain.

1.2.7 Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted basis of any Company asset pursuant to Section 734(b) of the Code or Section 743(c) of the Code is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m).

1.2.8 Allocations Relating to Taxable Issuance of Company Interests. Any income, gain, loss, or deduction realized as a direct or indirect result of the issuance of a Company interest by the Company to a Member (the “Issuance Items”) shall be allocated among Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such Issuance Items, together with all other allocations under this Exhibit B to each Member, shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member if the Issuances Items had not been realized.

1.3 Curative Allocations.

1.3.1 Regulatory Allocations. The “Regulatory Allocations” consist of the “Basic Regulatory Allocations,” as defined in Section 1.3.2 of this Exhibit B, the “Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations,” as defined in Section 1.3.3 of this Exhibit B, and the “Member Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations,” as defined in Section 1.3.4 of this Exhibit B.

1.3.2 Basic Regulatory Allocations. The “Basic Regulatory Allocations” consist of allocations pursuant to Sections 1.2.3, 1.2.4, and 1.2.7 of this Exhibit B. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Exhibit B, other than the Regulatory Allocations, the Basic Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating items of income, gain, loss, and deduction among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of such other items and the Basic Regulatory Allocations to each Member shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member if the basic Regulatory Allocations had not occurred. For purposes of applying the foregoing sentence, allocations pursuant to this Section 1.3.2 shall be made only with respect to allocations pursuant to Section 1.2.7 hereof to the extent the Members reasonably determine that such allocations will otherwise be inconsistent with the economic agreement among the parties to this Agreement.

1.3.3 Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations. The “Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations” consist of all allocations pursuant to Sections 1.2.1 and 1.2.5 of this Exhibit B. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Exhibit B, other than the Regulatory Allocations, the Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating items of income, gain, loss, and deduction among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of such items and the Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations to each Member shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member if the Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations had not occurred. For purposes of applying the foregoing sentence (i) no allocations pursuant to this Section 1.3.3 shall be made prior to the Company taxable year during which there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, and then only to the extent necessary to avoid any potential economic distortion caused by such net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, and (ii) allocations pursuant to this Section 1.3.3 shall be deferred with respect to allocations pursuant to Section 1.2.5 hereof to the extent the Members reasonably determine that such allocations are likely to be offset by subsequent allocations pursuant to Section 1.2.1 hereof.

1.3.4 Member Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations. The “Member Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations” consist of all allocations pursuant to Sections 1.2.2 and 1.2.6 of this Exhibit B. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Exhibit B, other than the Regulatory Allocations, the Member Nonrecourse Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating items of income, gain, loss, and deduction among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of such items and the Member Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations to each Members shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member if the Member Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations had not occurred. For purposes of applying the foregoing sentence (i) no allocations pursuant to this Section 1.3.4 shall be made with respect to allocations pursuant to Section 1.2.6 relating to a particular Member Nonrecourse Debt prior to the Company taxable year during which there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, and then only to the extent necessary to avoid any potential economic distortions caused by such net decrease in Member Minimum Gain, and (ii) allocations pursuant to this Section 1.3.4 shall be deferred with respect to allocations pursuant to Section 1.2.6 hereof relating to a particular Member Nonrecourse Debt to the extent the Members reasonably determine that such allocations are likely to be offset by subsequent allocations pursuant to Section 1.2.2 hereof.

1.3.5 Member Discretion. The Members shall have reasonable discretion, with respect to each Company taxable year, to (i) apply the provisions of Section 1.3.2, 1.3.3, and 1.3.4 of this Exhibit B in whatever order is likely to minimize the economic distortions that might otherwise result from the Regulatory Allocations, and (ii) divide all allocations pursuant to Sections 1.3.2, 1.3.3, and 1.3.4 of this Exhibit B among the Members in a manner that is likely to minimize such economic distortions.

1.4 Tax Allocations. Section 704(c) of the Code. In accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder and Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i), income, gain, loss and deduction (as computed for tax purposes) with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company or otherwise revalued on the books of the Company may, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members to take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax

purposes and its fair market value as determined at the time of the contribution. In addition, if any gain (as computed for tax purposes) on the sale or other disposition of Company property shall constitute recapture of depreciation under Sections 291, 1245 or 1250 of the Code or any similar provision, such gain shall (to the extent possible) be divided among the Members in proportion to the depreciation deductions previously claimed by them giving rise to such recapture; provided, however, that this sentence shall not affect the amount of gain otherwise allocable to a Member.

Section 2. Net Profit and Net Loss.

Definition. “Net Profit” and “Net Loss” of the Company means for each fiscal year or other period, an amount equal to the Company’s taxable income or loss for such year or period, determined in accordance with Code Section 703(a).

(a) Any income of the Company that is exempt from federal income tax and not otherwise taken into account in computing Net Profit or Net Loss shall be added to such taxable income or loss;

(b) Any expenditures of the Company described in Code Section 705(a)(2)(B) or treated as Code Section 705(a)(2)(B) expenditures pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i), and not otherwise taken into account in computing Net Profit or Net Loss, shall be subtracted from such taxable income or loss;

(c) If property other than cash has been contributed to the Company or the Capital Accounts of the Members have been adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), depreciation, amortization, gain or loss with respect to assets of the Company may be computed in accordance with Section 1.4 hereof; and

(d) Nonrecourse Deductions and Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year, or any other allocation period, shall not be taken into account in computing Net Profit or Net Loss, but shall be separately allocated to the Members in accordance with Paragraph 1.2.5 and 1.2.6 hereof.
