Article 5. Capital Contributions.

5.1 Payment of Capital Contributions. The Managing Member has made such Capital Contribution to the Company as set forth on Exhibit A in return for such Managing Member’s Managing Member Units and Interests in the Company. Each Non-managing Member has agreed to make the Capital Contribution as set out in its Subscription Agreement and as will be set forth on Exhibit A, as such Exhibit A may be amended, modified, supplemented or restated

from time to time in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in return for each such Non-managing Member’s Non-managing Member Units and Interests in the Company. To the extent that a Member’s Capital Contribution takes the form of Property or other non-cash assets, the Managing Member shall value such Property or other non-cash assets based upon the Gross Asset Value, as defined above, of such Property or other non-cash assets. No Member shall be required to make any additional Capital Contribution to the Company other than the initial Capital Contribution to the Company as set forth on Exhibit A in return for such Member’s Member Units and Interests in the Company.

5.2 Remedies for Default in Payment of Capital Contribution.

5.2.1 If a Member fails to pay any amount that it is required to pay to the Company as a Capital Contribution under Section 5.1 (a “Missed Capital Contribution”), such Member shall be deemed a “Defaulting Member.” The amount in default shall be a debt to the Company and shall bear interest at an annual interest rate of ten percent (10%) or, if the maximum rate allowable by law is lower, the maximum legally permitted rate. All distributions otherwise payable to the Defaulting Member may be retained, at the option of the Company, and applied first to the payment of interest and then to the principal of the amount in default. A Defaulting Member shall not be entitled to vote on Company matters, and its Member Units and Interests in the Company shall be disregarded in determining whether the requisite consent has been obtained on any Company matters. In addition to any other remedy set forth herein, the Company shall have all rights at equity and law, including the right without any further demand on the Defaulting Member, to file suit against him or it to collect all amounts owed by the Defaulting Member. In addition to all other amounts due hereunder, the Company shall have the right to payment by the Defaulting Member of the reasonable attorneys’ fees of the Company related to the default.

5.2.2 The Defaulting Member hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Managing Member as the Defaulting Member’s attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver any documents necessary or appropriate to effectuate Section 5.2. The appointment by the Defaulting Member of the Managing Member as its attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and shall survive the incompetency, bankruptcy or dissolution of any person giving that power.

5.3 Return of Contributions. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, a Member is not entitled to the return of any part of its Capital Account or its Capital Contributions or to be paid interest in respect of either its Capital Account or its Capital Contributions. An unrepaid Capital Contribution is not a liability of the Company or of any Member. A Member is not required to contribute or to lend any cash or property to the Company to enable the Company to return any Member’s Capital Contributions.

5.4 Priority and Return of Capital. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no Member shall have priority over any other Member, either as to the return of Capital Contributions, the allocation of Profits and Losses, or to distributions.

Article 6. Allocations.

6.1 Profits. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 6.3 and 6.4 hereof, Profits for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated in the following order and priority:

(a) first, to the Members in proportion to and to the extent of the amount of Net Cash distributed to such Members under Section 7.1 hereof;

(b) second, to the Members in proportion to and to the extent of the amount of Net Capital Proceeds distributed to such Members under Section 7.2 hereof; and

(c) third, to the Members in an aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the cumulative Losses allocated pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof for all prior Fiscal Years over (ii) the cumulative Profits allocated pursuant to this Section 6.1 for all prior Fiscal Years, in proportion to such excess;

(d) the balance, if any, to the Members in proportion to the manner in which cash is then currently being distributed to the Members under Sections 7.1 and/or 7.2 hereof, as applicable.

6.2 Losses. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 6.3 and 6.4 hereof, Losses for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated in the following order and priority:

(a) first, to the Members in accordance with their Interests in an aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the cumulative Profits allocated pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof for all prior Fiscal Years over (ii) the cumulative Losses allocated pursuant to this Section 6.2 for all prior Fiscal Years, in proportion to such excess; and

(b) the balance, if any, to the Members in proportion to their Capital Account balances.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.2, if the amount of any Losses for any Fiscal Year that would otherwise be allocated to a Member under this Section 6.2 is in excess of the maximum amount that can be allocated to such Member without causing or increasing an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for such Member as of the last day of such Fiscal Year, then a portion of such Losses equal to such excess shall be allocated pro rata among all of the Members having positive Capital Account balances (to the extent of and in proportion to such balances) until such balances are reduced to zero and thereafter to the Members in proportion to their Interests.

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

(a) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 6, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Company Fiscal Year, the Members shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent Fiscal Years) in an amount equal to each Member’s share of the net decrease in

Partnership Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to the Members pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2) of the Regulations. This Section 6.3(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(b) Partner Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Regulations, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 6, if there is a net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any Company Fiscal Year, each Member who has a share of the Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent Fiscal Years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2) of the Regulations. This Section 6.3(b) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c) Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to each such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Member as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.3(c) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Article 6 have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.3(c) were not in the Agreement.

(d) 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 sum of (i) the amount such Member is obligated to restore pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, and (ii) the amount such Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each 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 6.3(d) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article 6 have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.3(d) and Section 6.3(c) hereof were not in the Agreement.

(e) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Interests.

(f) Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(1).

(g) Section 754 Adjustment. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Regulation Section 1.704-1(6)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Member in complete liquidation of his, her or its interest in the Company, the amount of such adjustment to the 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 accordance with their interests in the Company in the event Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Member to whom such distribution was made in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.

(h) 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 an Interest by the Company to a Member (the “issuance items”) shall be allocated among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such issuance items, together with all other allocations under the Agreement to the Members, shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to the Members if the issuance items had not been realized.

6.4 Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in the last sentence of Section 6.2 and in Sections 6.3(a), 6.3(b), 6.3(c), 6.3(d), 6.3(e), 6.3(f) and 6.3(g) hereof (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction pursuant to this Section 6.4. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 6 (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Managing Member shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Member’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance that such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of the Agreement and all Company items were allocated pursuant to Sections 6.1 and 6.2 (excluding the last sentence thereof). In exercising its discretion under this Section 6.4, the Managing Member shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Sections 6.3(a) and 6.3(b) that, although not made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made under Sections 6.3(e) and 6.3(f).

6.5 Other Allocations Rules.

(a) For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses or any other items allocable to any period, Profits, Losses, and any such other items shall be determined on a daily, monthly, or other basis, as determined by the Managing Member using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Regulations thereunder.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all items of Company income, gain, loss, and deduction for a Fiscal Year shall, for federal and state income tax purposes, be divided among the Members in the same proportions as they share Profits or Losses, as the case may be, for such Fiscal Year. The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Article 6 and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article 6 in reporting their shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

(c) Solely for purposes of determining the Member’s proportionate share of the “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Company within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Member’s interests in Company profits are in accordance with their percentage Interests.

(d) To the extent permitted by Section 1.704-2(h)(3) of the Regulations, the Members shall treat distributions of Net Cash as not having been made from the proceeds of a Nonrecourse Liability or a Partner Nonrecourse Debt.

6.6 Tax Allocations: Code Section 704(c). In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset Value (computed in accordance with Subsection (b) of the definition of Gross Asset Value).

With respect to the Company assets that have been adjusted to their Gross Asset Values under Subsection (b) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, and in the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to Subsection (c) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, subsequent allocations of 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 Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder.

Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Managing Member in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 6.6 are solely for purposes of federal, state, and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Person’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

6.7 Accounting Method. The income, deductions, credits, gains, and losses of the Company for each Fiscal Year shall be determined by the use of the method of accounting approved by the Managing Member for federal and state income tax purposes, in accordance with accepted accounting principles applied, to the extent deemed appropriate, on a consistent basis from year to year.

Article 7. Distributions.

7.1 Distribution of Net Cash. At least once each calendar quarter, the Managing Member shall determine the amount, if any, of Net Cash available to the Company for distribution. The amount of Net Cash so determined to be distributable pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall be distributed (taking into consideration all prior distributions made pursuant to Section 7.2), except as otherwise provided in Article 12 hereof, and after the minimum distribution to pay taxes has been made pursuant to Section 7.4, at such times as the Managing Member may determine, but in any event within a reasonable time after the end of such calendar quarter, in the following order and priority:

(a) first, to the Members in proportion to and to the extent of their respective Capital Account Balance; and

(b) the balance, to the Members in proportion to their Interests.

7.2 Distributions of Net Capital Proceeds. Except as otherwise provided in Article 12 hereof, as soon as practicable after the event giving rise to the receipt of Net Capital Proceeds by the Company, Net Capital Proceeds shall be distributed (taking into consideration all prior distributions made pursuant to Section 7.1) in the same order and priority as set forth in Section 7.1.

7.3 Amounts Withheld. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any state, local, or foreign tax law with respect to any payment, distribution, or allocation to the Company or the Members shall be treated as amounts distributed to the Members pursuant to this Article 7 for all purposes under this Agreement. The Managing Member is authorized to withhold from distributions, or with respect to allocations, to the Members and to pay over to any federal, state, local, or foreign government any amounts required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any other federal, state, local, or foreign law and shall allocate any such amounts to the Members with respect to which such amount was withheld.

7.4 Minimum Distribution to Pay Taxes. The Managing Member shall use commercially reasonable efforts, on a calendar quarter basis based upon the Company’s estimated taxable income under Section 703(a) of the Code, to distribute Net Cash (if any) after reserves, as established by the Managing Member, in an amount at least equal to each Member’s distributive share of the Company’s estimated taxable income under Section 703(a) of the Code for such year multiplied by forty percent (40%), the assumed marginal tax rate for each Member for such taxable year; and any such distribution shall be credited against each such Member’s allocation of Net Cash to be distributed under Section 7.1 hereof.

Article 8. Internal Accounting and Records.

8.1 Accounting Records. The Managing Member shall maintain, for the Company or through the Company’s accountants, accurate accounting records which shall be kept in accordance with accepted accounting principles applied, to the extent deemed appropriate, on a

consistent basis from year to year. All material decisions with respect to accounting principles and tax elections shall be made by the Managing Member.

8.2 Tax Returns. The Managing Member shall cause to be prepared and filed all necessary federal and state income tax returns for the Company. Neither the Company, the Managing Member, nor any Non-managing Member may make an election for the Company to be excluded from the application of the provisions of Subchapter K of Chapter 1 of Subtitle A of the Code or any similar provisions of applicable federal or state law, and no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to sanction or approve such an election.

8.3 Allocations on Transfer of Interests. In the case of a Transfer of any Interests at any time other than the close of the Company’s Fiscal Year, and if such Transfer is required to be recognized under this Agreement, the allocable shares of the various items of Company income, gain, deduction, loss, credit, and allowance, as computed for United States federal income tax purposes, shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee in either of the following two ways, as determined by the Managing Member: (a) by closing the Company’s books with respect to such transfer as of the date of such transfer, determining such items for such portion of the Fiscal Year of the Company and then allocating such items among the transferor and the other Members of the Company or (b) without then closing the Company’s books with respect to said transfer, but rather closing the Company’s books in the normal course as of the end of the Company’s Fiscal Year, determining such items for the entire Fiscal Year of the Company and then dividing such items into equal portions for each day of the Company’s Fiscal Year, and then allocating such items between the transferor and the transferee based on the number of days during such Fiscal Year of the Company that each was a Member of the Company.

8.4 Tax Matters Partner. The “tax matters partner” of the Company pursuant to Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code shall be the Managing Member, unless otherwise approved by all of the Members, and if the Managing Member is removed, any replacement Managing Member shall be appointed the “tax matters partner.” The “tax matters partner” shall take such action as may be necessary to cause each and every Member to become a “notice partner” within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code. In discharging its duties and responsibilities hereunder, the “tax matters partner” shall act as a fiduciary to all Members and all decisions by the “tax matters partner” shall be made in good faith in accordance with the advice of the Company’s tax counsel. The “tax matters partner” shall inform each other Member of all significant matters that may come to its attention in its capacity as “tax matters partner” by giving notice thereof to all Members and shall forward to each Member copies of all significant written communications it may receive or send in that capacity.

8.5 Books and Inspections; Selection of Accountants; Annual Statements. The books of accounts of the Company shall be available to the Members for inspection. Each Member, at its separate cost and expense, shall have the right at all reasonable times, upon at least seventy-two (72) hours prior written notice, during usual business hours to audit, examine, and make copies of or extracts from the books of accounts and bank statements of the Company. Such right may be exercised by any Member, or by its designated agents or employees. The Company’s certified public accountants shall be selected by the Managing Member. Financial statements of the Company shall be prepared annually.

8.6 Bank Accounts. Funds of the Company shall be deposited and maintained solely for the Company in accounts in the Company name in a bank or banks selected by the Managing Member. Subject to the provisions of the last sentence of this Section 8.6, withdrawals therefrom shall be made upon the signature of the Managing Member. The Managing Member shall not commingle any monies or funds of the Company with monies or funds of any other Person.

Article 9. Meetings of Members.

9.1 Meetings. Meetings of the Company shall be held at the principal offices of the Company upon the request of either (a) the Managing Member or (b) Members having Interests of at least twenty-five percent (25%), but only after the requesting Member has given written notice to each other Member of such meeting at least five (5) calendar days in advance thereof, specifying the hour, date, location and purpose of the meeting.

9.2 Duly Convened Meetings. Any meeting of the Company shall be deemed “duly convened” when (a) a quorum of the Members is present and (b) all Members have been given proper notice thereof pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. At all Company meetings, the presence of Members, in person or by proxy, having Interests of more than fifty percent (50%) shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Once a Member is present for any purpose at a meeting, other than solely to object to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting, such Member shall be deemed present for quorum purposes for the remainder of the meeting and for any adjournment thereof. Once a quorum is present, it shall not be broken by the subsequent withdrawal of any of those present. Any meeting of the Company may be adjourned without prior notice, from time to time, to such place and such time as shall be approved by the Members. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present, in person or by proxy, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called.

9.3 Voting. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any action that is approved by the Members shall be the act of the Company and the Members, and, in the event of voting by the Members for any reason, the following rules shall prevail:

(a) each Member shall have such number of votes equal to its number of Member Units; and

(b) Members may attend meetings or may cast their votes by proxy.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, whether or not a meeting of the Company is being held, actions to be taken that constitute Major Decisions, as defined in Section 4.2 above, must be approved by the Majority Approval of the Members, while actions to be taken that do not constitute Major Decisions, need only be approved by the Managing Member, such that no vote of the Non-managing Members is required to approve any such actions to be taken that do not constitute Major Decisions.

9.4 Attendance. Only Members and those individuals invited to do so by a Member shall be entitled to attend Company meetings.

9.5 Proxies. A Member may vote at any meeting in person or by proxy. A Member may, in writing, appoint another Member as the Member’s proxy to vote or otherwise act for such Member, and such proxy shall be entitled to act as specified in the proxy. A proxy must state the specific meeting for which it is to be valid and shall not be valid for more than the meeting specified therein. Subject to any express limitation on the proxy’s authority appearing on the face of the proxy, the Company shall accept the proxy’s vote or other action as that of the Member appointing the proxy.

9.6 Waiver of Notice. Notice of a meeting need not be given to any Member who signs a written waiver of notice, in person or by proxy, either before or after the meeting, and such waiver shall be deemed the equivalent of giving proper notice. Neither the business transacted nor the purpose of the meeting need be specified in the waiver. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the attendance of a Member at a meeting, either in person or by proxy, shall of itself constitute waiver of notice of the meeting and waiver of any and all objections to the place of the meeting, the time of the meeting, or the manner in which it has been called or convened, except when a Member attends a meeting solely for the express purpose of stating, and at the beginning of the meeting (or upon arrival at the meeting) so states, any such objection or objections to the transaction of business.

9.7 Action Without a Meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 9, any action required or permitted to be taken by the Members at a meeting may be taken without a meeting if such action is in writing and is approved and signed by (a) such number of Members constituting Majority Approval of the Members with respect to actions to be taken that constitute Major Decisions and (b) the Managing Member only with respect to actions to be taken that do not constitute Major Decisions.

Article 10. Restrictions on Transfer.

10.1 Transfers, Generally. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Managing Member, acting within its sole discretion, no direct or indirect Transfer of a Member’s Member Units and Interests may occur and no Member may otherwise encumber or permit or suffer any encumbrance of all or any portion of such Member’s Member Units and Interests in the Company, except in compliance with the terms of this Article 10, and any attempt to do so shall be null and void ab initio and of no effect whatsoever, and neither the Company nor the Member shall be bound by any such Transfer or encumbrance. Any Person (a “Transferee”) who obtains or purports to obtain any interest in all or any portion of a Member’s Member Units and Interests in violation of the provisions of this Agreement shall not become a Member and shall be deemed to hold such Member Units and Interests in constructive trust for the Company. Each Member hereby acknowledges the reasonableness of the restrictions on the Transfer of its Member Units and Interests imposed by this Agreement in view of the Company’s purposes and the relationship of the Members. Accordingly, the restrictions on the Transfer of a Member’s Member Units and Interests contained herein shall be specifically enforceable. Each Member and each Transferee hereby further agree to hold the Company and the other Members (and the other Members’ successors and assigns) wholly and completely harmless from any cost, liability or damage (including, without limitation, liabilities for income taxes and costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, of enforcing this restriction on the Transfer of a Member’s Member Units and Interests) incurred by the Company or any Member (or his, her or its successors and

assigns) as a result of another Member’s Transfer of or an attempt to Transfer all or any portion of its Member Units and Interests in violation of this Agreement.

10.2 Withdrawal of a Non-managing Member. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Act, a Non-managing Member may not voluntarily withdraw from the Company without the prior written consent of the Managing Member. In the event a Non-managing Member nonetheless attempts to voluntarily withdraw, the other Members shall have the remedy of an action for monetary damages and shall be entitled to pursue an action for specific performance against such withdrawing Non-managing Member. A Non-managing Member shall not be entitled to the fair value of its Non-managing Member Units and Interests or any liquidated share of the Company upon such attempted withdrawal, but may receive only such allocations and distributions as such Non-managing Member otherwise would be entitled to under this Agreement.

10.3 Bankruptcy or Insolvency of a Non-managing Member. In the event that a Non-managing Member suffers an Event of Dissociation described in the Act, the Non-managing Member’s trustee, receiver, or other legal representative shall have only the rights of an assignee of all of the Non-managing Member’s Non-managing Member Units and Interests as provided in the Act.

10.4 Death, Legal Incapacity or Incompetencey. If a Non-managing Member who is an individual dies or a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges him or her to be incompetent to manage his or her person or his or her property, the Non-managing Member’s executor, administrator, guardian, conservator, or other legal representative shall have only the rights of an assignee of all of the Non-managing Member’s Non-managing Member Units and Interests as provided in the Act, and such assignee shall have no rights to vote or otherwise participate in the management of the Company. The death, legal incapacity or incompetencey of the owners of all or any portion of the interests in, or control of, any Non-managing Member shall not constitute a Transfer and shall have no effect on the Company, the Non-managing Member or its Non-managing Member Units and Interests.

10.5 Pledge or Encumbrance. A Member may with the prior written consent of the Managing Member pledge or encumber its rights to receive distributions hereunder upon written notice to the Managing Member and all other Members; provided however, that any Person who is granted such pledge or encumbrance or who executes thereon shall have no rights of approval, consent, voting or other participation in the operation or governance of the Company, and shall only have the right to receive distributions hereunder when and as distributions are made by the Managing Member under the terms and conditions of this Agreement, with no right to cause such distributions to be made. Neither the Managing Member nor the Company shall have any liability to any Person, whether or not a Member, due to any distribution(s) made in accordance with such written notice as it has received as of the date of such distribution, and Managing Member may, in the event of a dispute, deposit the disputed distribution with any court of competent jurisdiction in an action of interpleader (or analogue thereto) and shall thereafter be discharged from any and all obligation and liability in connection with such disputed distribution.

10.6 Purchase Option. Upon the occurrence of an event set forth in Sections 10.2, 10.3, or 10.4 (the “Specified Event”) with respect to a Non-managing Member (the “Specified Member”), the Company shall, for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days of the date of the occurrence of the Specified Event, have the option, acting in accordance with the decision of the Managing Member, to purchase from the Specified Member or the estate or other successor in interest of the Specified Member and upon the exercise of such option the Specified Member or the estate or other successor in interest of the Specified Member shall be obligated to sell to the Company all of the Non-managing Member Units and Interests in the Company owned by such Specified Member. The aforesaid purchase shall be at a price equal to the Company Financial Interest (as defined in Section 10.7 below) of the Specified Member computed as of the last day of the month immediately preceding the date of the occurrence of the Specified Event. The aforesaid purchase price shall be payable as agreed upon by the parties, or, if the parties do not agree upon a different manner of payment, such purchase price shall be paid as follows: a cash down payment of twenty percent (20%) of the purchase price shall be paid in cash within two hundred twenty five (225) days of the date of the occurrence of the Specified Event and the Company shall give its unsecured promissory note bearing interest at eight percent (8%) for the balance of the amount due with the principal and interest being payable in twenty (20) equal, consecutive quarterly installments, with the first such installment to be due three (3) months following the date upon which the down payment is made.

10.7 Company Financial Interest. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Company Financial Interest” with respect to a particular Non-managing Member is defined to mean the “fair market value” of the Company multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Non-managing Member Units and Interests in the Company owned and to be sold by the particular Non-managing Member, and the denominator of which shall be the total Non-managing Member Units and Interests in the Company issued and outstanding and owned by all of the Non-managing Members, taking into consideration the manner in which the Company distributes Net Cash and Net Capital Proceeds as set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2. The “fair market value” of the Company shall be such amount mutually determined by the Company (acting in accordance with the decision of the Managing Member) and the selling person within twenty (20) days of the date that such “fair market value” must be determined. In the event that the Company and the selling person shall be unable to mutually agree upon the “fair market value” of the Company, then the “fair market value” of the Company shall be determined in good faith by the Company (acting in accordance with the decision of the Managing Member) within thirty (30) days of the date such “fair market value” must be determined. If the selling person contests the “fair market value” of the Company determined by the Company, then the “fair market value” of the Company shall be determined by a duly qualified independent appraiser selected by the Company. The selected appraiser shall determine the “fair market value” of the Company and render a written report of his opinion thereon. All appraisals required by this Agreement shall be prepared and submitted to the parties within twenty (20) days after the appraiser is engaged. The appraiser appointed shall (a) have not less than ten (10) years experience appraising companies operating businesses similar to the business of the Company, (b) be an appraisal company recognized as a member of the Appraisal Institute, consulting firm, investment banking firm, accounting firm, or bank, and (c) have no prior professional relationship with the Company or the seller; provided, however, that such appraiser may have already rendered an appraisal in accordance with this Agreement. The Company shall provide the appraiser with full access to financial and other data, all of which the appraiser shall

hold in confidence to the extent reasonably requested by the Company. The appraiser may but shall not be obligated to provide the rationale or calculations supporting its determination of the “fair market value” of the Company. The final determination of the “fair market value” of the Company shall be final and binding on all parties. If the “fair market value” of the Company as determined by the appraiser is one hundred ten percent (110%) or less of the “fair market value” of the Company as determined by the Company, the selling person requesting the appraisal shall pay the entire cost of the appraisal. If the “fair market value” of the Company as determined by the appraiser is greater than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the “fair market value” of the Company as determined by the Company, the Company shall pay the entire cost of the appraisal. At the request of the Company, the selling person requesting the appraisal shall deposit the estimated cost of the appraisal into escrow with the appraiser, to serve as security in the event that such selling person is required to pay the entire cost of the appraisal.

10.8 Drag Along Rights. In the event there is Majority Approval of a Transfer of all of the Member Units and Interests of the Company or all or substantially all of its assets, and in connection therewith it is determined by Majority Approval that the Transfer is fair from a financial point of view to the Members (an “Approved Transfer of the Company”), the Members shall consent to and raise no objections to the Approved Transfer of the Company and (i) if the Approved Transfer of the Company is structured as a sale of Member Units and Interests, the Members shall agree to sell all of their Member Units and Interests on the terms and conditions approved by the Managing Member, (ii) if the Approved Transfer of the Company is structured as a merger, consolidation or other reorganization, the Members shall vote in favor thereof (to the extent they are entitled to vote) and shall not exercise any dissenters’ rights of appraisal they may have under Delaware law, and (iii) if the Approved Transfer of the Company is structured as a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Members shall vote in favor thereof (to the extent they are entitled to vote) and shall not exercise any dissenters’ rights of appraisal they may have under Delaware law. Each Member shall use its best efforts to cooperate in the Approved Transfer of the Company and shall take any and all necessary and desirable actions in connection with the consummation of the Approved Transfer of the Company as are reasonably requested by the Managing Member, including, but not limited to, the provision of reasonable and customary representations and warranties; provided, however, that no Member shall be required to incur any out-of-pocket expenses in connection with such Approved Transfer of the Company which are not reimbursed by the Company; and provided, further that no Member shall be required to make any representations and warranties in connection with any Approved Transfer other than representations and warranties as to (A) such Member’s ownership of its Member Units and Interests to be Transferred free and clear of all liens or other encumbrances and (B) such Member’s power and authority to effect such Approved Transfer.

The obligations of each Member with respect to the Approved Transfer of the Company are also subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) upon the consummation of the Approved Transfer of the Company, all of the Members shall receive the same form and amount of consideration for the Member Units and Interests as all other holders of the same class of Member Units and Interests, and (ii) the price per Member Unit and Interest shall be payable in cash or freely tradable securities.

Article 11. Indemnification.

11.1 Right to Indemnification. Subject to the limitations and conditions provided in this Article 11, each Person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative (hereinafter a “Proceeding”), or any appeal in such a Proceeding or any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such a Proceeding, by reason of the fact that it, or a Person of whom it is the legal representative, is or was a Managing Member, an Affiliate of a Managing Member, or Member of the Company shall be indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the Act or any other applicable law or judicial ruling against judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes and punitive damages), fines, settlements and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, costs of suit and attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by such Person in connection with such Proceeding, and indemnification under this Article 11 shall continue as to a Person who has ceased to serve in the capacity which initially entitled such Person to indemnity hereunder. The rights granted pursuant to this Article 11 shall be deemed contract rights, and no amendment, modification or repeal of this Article 11 shall have the effect of limiting or denying such rights with respect to causes of action accrued, actions taken or Proceedings arising prior to any such amendment, modification or repeal. It is expressly acknowledged that the indemnification provided in this Article 11 could involve indemnification for negligence or under theories of strict liability; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement to the contrary, a Person shall not be indemnified by the Company against any judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and expenses incurred by such Person which arise in connection with any Proceeding if such Proceeding arises from bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct by such Person.

11.2 Savings Clause. If this Article 11 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 Member or any other Person indemnified pursuant to this Article 11 from and against judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes and punitive damages), fines, settlements, and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, costs of suit and attorneys’ fees) actually incurred to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article 11 that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Act.

Article 12. Dissolution and Termination.

12.1 Dissolution. The Company shall dissolve and its affairs shall be wound up on the first to occur of the following:

(a) when dissolution is approved by Majority Approval;

(b) the sale by the Company of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; provided, however, that if the Company receives a purchase money mortgage in connection with any such sale, the Company may be continued in the discretion of the Managing Member until the purchase money mortgage is paid in full, sold or otherwise disposed of; or

Upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing events, the Company shall dissolve unless the Members decide, by Majority Approval, within ninety (90) days subsequent to the occurrence of any such event, to continue the business of the Company in accordance with this Agreement and the Act.

12.2 Liquidation and Termination.

(a) Business Affairs of the Company. Upon dissolution of the Company, no further business transactions, except those necessary for the winding up of the Company’s business by the Managing Member, shall be undertaken in the name of the Company.

(b) Liquidation and Termination. Upon dissolution of the Company, the Managing Member shall attempt to sell all the assets of the Company (except cash and other immediately available funds), at such prices and on such terms as it may deem appropriate in its reasonable discretion, and shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act, all in the exercise of its best business judgment under the circumstances then presented and as it deems to be in the best interests of all the Members. The costs of liquidation shall be borne by the Company as an expense. Until final distribution, the Managing Member shall continue to manage and operate the Company. As promptly as possible after dissolution and, again, after final liquidation, the Managing Member 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. The Managing Member also shall pay, satisfy, or discharge from the Company’s funds, all of the debts, liabilities, and obligations of the Company (including, without limitation, all expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision for the payment and discharge thereof (including, without limitation, the establishment of a cash escrow fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as they may reasonably determine). A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly liquidation of the assets of the Company, payments to creditors, and the distribution of the remaining assets to the Members.

12.3 Distributions in Liquidation. The proceeds from the liquidation of the Company pursuant to Section 12.2, above, shall be distributed in the following order of priority:

(a) as contemplated by Section 12.2(b) above, to the payment and discharge of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities to persons or entities other than the Members or their Affiliates;

(b) to the setting up of such reserves as the Managing Member deems necessary for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company arising out of or in connection with the business of the Company; provided, however, that any such reserves shall be paid over to an escrow agent (not a Member or an Affiliate of a Member, unless otherwise approved by the Managing Member) to be held by such agent for a reasonable period of time and for the purpose of disbursing such reserves in payment of any of the aforesaid

contingencies and, at the expiration of such period of time, to distribute the balance thereafter remaining in the manner hereinafter provided;

(c) as contemplated by Section 12.2(b) above, to the payment and discharge of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities to the Members and their Affiliates; and

(d) finally, as contemplated by Section 7.2 above.

The distribution of cash and/or property to a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.3 constitutes a complete return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to each Member of its Member Units and Interests. Except as provided by law or as expressly provided in the Agreement, upon dissolution each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for the return of its Capital Contribution and Capital Account. If the Company’s property remaining after the payment or discharge of debts and liabilities of the Company is insufficient to return the Capital Contributions and Capital Accounts of one or more Members, such Member or Members shall have no recourse against any other Member.

12.4 Distributions in Kind on Liquidation. Notwithstanding Section 12.2(b) hereof, upon the dissolution of the Company, to the extent that the Managing Member determines that the Company’s assets should not be sold or otherwise disposed of, such assets (if any) may be distributed in kind to the Members as follows: the fair market value of such assets shall be appraised (by an appraiser selected or approved by the Managing Member); the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to take into account all Capital Account adjustments for all items of income, gain, loss, and deduction allocable among the Members as if there had been an actual disposition of the Company’s assets at their fair market value, and such assets, as so valued, shall be retained to the extent required to satisfy the requirements of Section 12.3(a) and (b); and the remaining assets shall be distributed to the Members, each Member taking an undivided interest in such assets, pursuant to and in accordance with Sections 12.3(c) and (d).

12.5 Deficit Capital Accounts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement and to the extent permitted by applicable law (including the Act), to the extent that any Member has a deficit in its Capital Account balance upon dissolution of the Company, such deficit shall not be an asset of the Company and such Member shall not be obligated to contribute the amount of such deficit to the Company.

12.6 Effect of Dissolution. Upon dissolution, the Company shall cease to carry on its business, except as permitted herein and as permitted under the Act. Upon dissolution, the Members shall file a statement of commencement of winding up pursuant to the Act and publish notice thereof as permitted under the Act. Upon completion of the winding up, liquidation, and distribution of the assets of the Company as provided herein, the Company shall be deemed terminated. When all debts, liabilities, and obligations of the Company have been paid and discharged or adequate provisions have been made therefor and all of the remaining property and assets of the Company have been distributed as provided herein, a certificate of cancellation may be executed and filed with the Secretary in accordance with the Act.

Article 13. Miscellaneous Provisions.

13.1 Notices. All notices, offers, demands, or requests provided for or permitted to be given pursuant to the Agreement must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been properly given and received (a) when personally delivered to the party entitled thereto; (b) if deposited with Federal Express or any other nationally recognized overnight parcel carrier, upon actual receipt or refusal to accept delivery thereof; or (c) by depositing the same in the United States mail, first class mail postage prepaid, to the address set forth on Exhibit A or otherwise designated in writing to the Company and the other Members. Whenever any notice is required to be given by law, the Certificate or the Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

13.2 Entire Agreement and Amendment. The Agreement represents the entire agreement between the parties hereto relative to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior negotiations, understandings, or agreements in regard thereto. Variations, modifications, or changes herein or hereof shall be binding upon the Company and the Members only when an amendment hereto has been adopted as provided in this Agreement.

13.3 Amendment of this Agreement and the Certificate. Except as to any amendment to this Agreement that is authorized by Section 3.1 above, any amendment to or modification of the Agreement or the Certificate shall be effective and binding on the Company and all Members only with Majority Approval; provided, however, that unless approved by all of the Members, no such amendment shall (a) change the method of making amendments to this Agreement, and/or (b) increase the share of the Net Cash and/or Net Capital Proceeds to be distributed to the Members.

13.4 Effect of Waiver or Consent. A waiver or consent, express or implied, to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of its obligations with respect to the Company is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other obligations of that Person with respect to the Company. Failure on the part of a Person to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any Person in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Person of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute-of-limitations period has run.

13.5 Waiver of Partition. No Member shall, either directly or indirectly, take any action to require a partition or appraisement of the Company or of any of its assets or cause a receiver to be appointed for the Company or any of its assets or cause the sale of any Company property, and, notwithstanding any provisions of applicable law to the contrary, each Member (and the Member’s legal representatives, successors, or assigns) hereby irrevocably waives and renounces, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all rights to maintain any action for partition or appraisement or to have a receiver appointed for the Company or any of its assets or to compel any sale or payment of fair value with respect to such Member’s Member Units and Interests or with respect to any assets of the Company.

13.6 Dissolution, Withdrawal, and Expulsion. Each Member covenants and agrees that, notwithstanding any provision of the Act, if the dissolution of the Company is caused in any way, no Member (nor the legal representative of the estate of a deceased Member) shall have the right to have the Company property applied to discharge such Member’s liabilities or applied to pay any amount to such Member on behalf of such Member’s Member Units and Interests, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Each Member further covenants and agrees that, upon the dissolution of the Company for any reason, the Members who wind up the business of the Company shall have no obligation to obtain any Member’s discharge from any Company liabilities, hold such Member harmless from any Company liabilities, or pay such Member any amount equal to the value of such Member’s Member Units and Interests, unless otherwise specifically provided herein.

13.7 Binding Agreement. Subject to the restrictions on transfers and encumbrances set forth herein, the Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the undersigned parties and their respective permitted legal representatives, successors and assigns.

13.8 Equitable Remedies. The rights and remedies hereunder shall be cumulative and not be mutually exclusive (i.e., the exercise of one or more of the provisions hereof shall not preclude the exercise of any other provisions hereof). Each party hereto confirms that damages at law may be an inadequate remedy for a breach or threatened breach of the Agreement and agrees that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision hereof, the respective rights and obligations hereunder (except as expressly provided otherwise herein) shall be enforceable by specific performance, injunction, or other equitable remedy, but nothing herein contained is intended to, nor shall it, limit or affect any right or rights at law or by statute or otherwise of any party aggrieved as against the other for a breach or threatened breach of any provision hereof, it being the intention of this provision to make clear the agreement of the parties hereto that the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be enforceable in equity as well as at law or otherwise.

13.9 Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any one or more of the particular provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the enforceability of the other provisions hereof, all of which are inserted conditionally on their being valid in law, and in the event one or more provisions contained herein shall be invalid, the Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid provision had not been inserted, and if such invalidity shall be caused by any value, any price, the length of any period of time, the size of any area, or the scope of activities set forth in any provision hereof, such value, price, period of time, area, or scope shall be considered to be adjusted to a value, price, period of time, area, or scope which would cure such invalidity. The parties hereto agree that the covenants and obligations contained in the Agreement are severable and divisible, that none of such covenants or obligations depend on any other covenant or obligation for their enforceability, that each such covenant and obligation constitutes an enforceable obligation between the Company and the Members, that each such covenant and obligation shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision of the Agreement, and that the existence of any claim or cause of action by one party to the Agreement against another party to the Agreement, whether predicated on the Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by any party to the Agreement of any such covenants or obligations.

13.10 Construction. The Section and Subsection headings of the Agreement are provided only for convenience of reference; they are not a part of the Agreement and shall be ignored in its construction. Except where otherwise clearly indicated by the context, the singular shall be deemed to include the plural, the plural shall be deemed to include the singular and the masculine and neuter shall include feminine and neuter.

13.11 Counterparts. The Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signing parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and constitute the same instrument.

13.12 Governing Law. The Agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflict-of-laws rule or principle that might refer the governance or the construction of the Agreement to the law of another jurisdiction. In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of the Agreement and any mandatory provision of the Act, the applicable provision of the Act shall control.

13.13 Survival. The obligations of the parties hereto shall survive the termination of the Company and/or the death, withdrawal, retirement, or expulsion of a Member.

13.14 Creditors. None of the provisions of the Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any creditor of the Company.

13.15 Involvement of Members in Certain Proceedings. Should any Member (or any constituent partner of a Member) become involved in legal proceedings unrelated to the Company’s business, in which the Company is required to provide books, records, an accounting, or other information, then such Member shall indemnify the Company for all costs and expenses incurred in conjunction therewith.

13.16 No Third Party Beneficiaries. No person who is not a signatory to this Agreement shall be permitted to rely upon or otherwise enforce any provision contained in this Agreement on the grounds that such person is a third party beneficiary of this Agreement.

13.17 Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each Member shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of the Agreement and those transactions.

13.18 Brokers. The parties hereto each represent and warrant to the other that no party hereto has employed any broker in negotiations relating to this Agreement; and each shall indemnify and hold harmless the other from and against any claim for brokerage or other commission out of the formation of the Company and/or the Company’s acquisition or ultimate sale of the Property or the other assets of the Company.

13.19 Dispute Resolution. Any controversy, claim, or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its breach, including without limitation any claim that this Agreement or any of its parts is invalid, illegal, or otherwise voidable or void, shall be submitted to arbitration before and in accordance with the Streamlined Rules for Commercial, Real Estate and Construction Cases then obtaining of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service, Inc.

(“JAMS”) of Washington, DC and the laws of the State of Delaware, and judgment upon the award rendered in such arbitration may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The decision and award of the arbitrator or arbitrators shall be in writing and shall be final, binding and enforceable against the parties and shall be non-appealable, and counterpart copies thereof shall be delivered to each of the parties. In rendering such decision and award, the arbitrators shall not add to, subtract from or otherwise modify the provisions of this Agreement. The arbitrator may award attorneys’ fees and costs of suit as part of an award.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Members, intending to be legally bound and to bind the Company, have executed this Agreement on their own behalf and on behalf of the Company as of the Effective Date first set forth above.
