separate capital account (“Capital Account”) will be maintained for each Member
throughout the term of the Company in accordance with Code Section 704(b) and
the regulations promulgated thereunder.
8.1.2 Each
Member shall contribute capital described in this Agreement, the amount and form
of which is as set forth in the attached Schedule 1, as such Member's share of
the Members' initial Capital Contribution, at such times and as provided in this
Section 8.1. A Member shall not be entitled to receive interest on
any portion of its Capital Contributions or Capital Account. A Member
will, however, be entitled to receive interest on any loans it makes to the
Company pursuant to Section 8.3.
8.2 Additional Capital
Contributions.
(a) In
addition to the initial Capital Contributions described in Section 8.1, each
Member shall contribute to the Company upon demand by the Administrative Member,
on no less than thirty (30) days notice, such additional capital in proportion
to their respective Percentage Interests (“Additional Capital Contributions”) as
may be required: (1) to pay operating costs of the Company and/or the Project
Entities which are not funded out of the capital (including Contribution Loans)
and earnings of the Company and/or the Project Entities; (2) to make payments on
optional loans under Section 8.3 which are not funded out of the capital or
earnings of the Company and/or the Project Entities; or (3) for other purposes
as the Administrative Member may determine to be in the best interests of the
Company and/or the Project Entities. Additional Capital Contributions
pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall be made by the Members on the thirtieth
(30th) day
following receipt of notice from the Administrative Member of such Additional
Capital Contributions (the “Contribution Notice”). The provisions of
this Section 8.2(a) shall not create any rights in any third
party. No person or Entity shall have the right to enforce this
Section 8.2 except the Company.
(b) If
a Member fails to make all or any part of any Additional Capital Contribution
required by Section 8.2(a) (“Noncontributing Member”), the other Member (the
“Contributing Member”) shall make an Additional Capital Contribution in an
amount equal to the Additional Capital Contribution made by the Noncontributing
Member (the “Matching Contribution”), and may, but is not required to, lend to
the Company an amount equal to the amount of such Additional Capital
Contribution not contributed by the Noncontributing Member (a “Contribution
Loan”). A Contribution Loan shall bear interest at the rate of
fifteen percent (15%). At any time during the term of the
Contribution Loan, the Noncontributing Member shall be entitled to contribute,
as an Additional Capital Contribution, an amount equal to the principal and
interest due on the Contribution Loan (“Delayed Additional Capital
Contribution”), in which case, the Company shall immediately repay the
Contribution Loan. The principal portion of the Delayed Additional
Capital Contribution only shall be added to the contributor's Invested Capital
and Capital Account, and the Percentage Interests and Membership Interests of
the Members shall be as though the original contribution was made when called
for.
10
(c) In
the event that a Member makes an Additional Capital Contribution in excess of
the amount required pursuant to this Section 8.2, such excess amount shall be
returned to such Member within ten (10) business days of the contribution
date.

Members.

Loans. With the approval of the Administrative Member, a
Member may, but will not be required to, advance additional monies to the
Company (which the Company may in turn loan to one or more of the Project
Entities) as a loan upon such terms as the lending Member and the Administrative
Member may agree. The interest rate on any loan by a Member to the
Company shall be determined by the Administrative Member and the lending
Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no Member may make an
optional loan to the Company pursuant to this Section 8.3 without prior written
notice from the Company to all Members and an opportunity to all Members to loan
the Company the necessary funds in their respective Percentage Interests as
optional loans.
8.3.2 Treatment of
Loans. No loan will result in an increase in the Percentage
Interest of the lending Member, and the amount of any such loan will not be
credited to the lending Member's Capital Account, except, in either case, in
accordance with Section 8.2(b). Any loan will be an obligation of the
Company to the lending Member, with interest, and will be repaid to the lending
Member before any amount may be distributed to any Member with respect to its
Percentage Interest. Interest on such loans will be payable without
regard to the profits or losses of the Company and will be treated as a
transaction with a Member other than in its capacity as a Member of the Company
pursuant to Section 707(a) of the Code. All such loans will be
repayable solely from the Company's assets and represented by promissory notes
executed by the Company.
8.4 Withdrawal or Reduction of
Members’ Contributions to Capital. A Member shall not receive
out of the Company's property any part of its Capital Contribution until all
liabilities of the Company, except liabilities to Members on account of their
Capital Contributions, have been paid and there remains property of the Company
sufficient to pay them. A Member, irrespective of the nature of its
Capital Contribution, has only the right to demand and receive cash in return
for its Capital Contribution.

Interest.

as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, a Member shall have no right
to:
(a) sell,
encumber, assign, transfer, exchange or otherwise transfer for consideration,
(collectively, “sell” or “sale”),
(b) except
in accordance with Section 12.4, gift, bequeath or otherwise transfer for no
consideration whether or not by operation of law, except in the case of
bankruptcy (collectively “gift”),

any part of its Membership Interest. In particular, each Member
hereby acknowledges that no sale or gift of any Membership Interest shall be
permitted other than to the other Member without the consent of the
Administrative Member, which may be withheld in its sole and absolute
discretion. Each Member hereby acknowledges the reasonableness of the
restrictions on sale and gift of Membership Interests imposed by this Agreement
in view of the Company's purposes and the relationship of the
Members. Accordingly, the restrictions on sale and gift contained
herein shall be specifically enforceable. Any sale, gift or other
transfer in violation of this Agreement shall be void and of no force and
effect. In the event that any Member pledges or otherwise encumbers
any of its Membership Interest as security for repayment of a liability as
permitted under this Agreement, any such pledge or hypothecation shall be made

less than thirty (30) days nor more than one hundred twenty (120) days after the

Company Buy Out Option. At the Closing, the Company shall execute
such documents as may be reasonably requested by SSL to reflect the transfer and
conveyance of the Applicable Project Entity Interest free and clear of all
liens, charges and encumbrances. For the avoidance of doubt the
parties acknowledge and agree that the Company Buy Out Option may be exercised
on one or more occasions and as to one or more of the Project
Entities.
(b) SSL
or its designee shall also have the right (the “Xxxx Buy Out Option”) at any
time from and after January 1, 2001 on written notice to Xxxx to acquire the
membership interest of Xxxx in the Company for the Xxxx Buy Out Purchase
Price. In the event of the exercise by
14
SSL of
the Xxxx Buy Out Option, the closing of the purchase and sale of the Membership
Interest of Xxxx in the Company shall occur on the date specified by SSL in the
Xxxx Buy Out Notice, which date shall be no less than thirty (30) days nor more
than one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the Xxxx Buy Out Notice.
The Xxxx Buy Out Purchase Price shall be due by wire transfer of immediately
available funds at the closing of the Xxxx Buy Out Option. At the
Closing, Xxxx shall execute such documents as may be reasonably requested by SSL
to reflect the transfer and conveyance of the Membership Interest of Xxxx free
and clear of all liens, charges and encumbrances.
(c) If
SSL or its designee(s) exercise the Company Buy Out Option or the Xxxx Buy Out
Option under this Section 12.3, it will be a condition of the Closing of any
such option that either (i) any guaranty made by Xxxx of any debt or obligation
of the Company (or the Applicable Project Entity or Entities if less than all of
the Project Entities are being purchased) will be released upon Closing or (ii)
at Closing SSL or its designee(s) shall provide an indemnity to Xxxx with
respect to his guaranty obligations, which indemnity shall be in form and
substance acceptable to Xxxx.
12.4 Transfer for Estate
Planning. Xxxx may gift or devise all or any portion of his
Membership Interest without the consent of the Administrative Member; provided,
that (a) the transferee is Xxxx’x spouse, or lineal descendent (including
adopted children) or a trust in which such persons are the sole beneficiaries
and (b) the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this
Agreement. In the event of the gift or devise of all or any portion
of Xxxx’x Membership Interest to one or more transferees who are under the age
of twenty-one (21), one or more trusts shall be established to hold the gifted
interests for the benefit of such transferee(s) until all of the transferee(s)
reach the age of at least twenty-one (21) years.

the end of the taxable year in which the liquidation occurs (or, if later,
within ninety (90) days after the date of such liquidation), to the Members in
proportion to the positive balances in their respective Capital Accounts, and
then by their respective Percentage Interests.
14.4 No Obligation to Restore
Negative Capital Account Balance on
Liquidation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, upon a liquidation within the meaning of Regulation Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), if any Member has a negative Capital Account balance
(after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, allocations and other
Capital Account adjustments for all taxable years, including the year during
which such liquidation occurs), such Member shall have no obligation to make any

Capital Account shall not be

a debt owed by such Member to the Company or to any other Person for any purpose
whatsoever.

Cancellation. When all debts, liabilities and obligations have
been paid and discharged or adequate provisions have been made therefor and all
of the remaining property and assets have been distributed to the Members, the
Administrative Member shall file a certificate of cancellation as required by

of the Company shall cease, except as otherwise provided in the
Act.

Nonrecourse to Other Members. Except as provided by law or as
expressly provided in this Agreement, upon dissolution, each Member shall look
solely to the assets of the Company for the return of its Capital
Contribution. If the property remaining after the payment or
discharge of liabilities of the Company is insufficient to return the
contributions of Members, no Member shall have recourse against any other
Member.

been acquired for such Member's own account, for investment and not with a view

unless there is an effective registration or other qualification relating
thereto under all applicable Securities Acts or unless such Member delivers to

registration or other qualification is not required. The Members
understand that the Company is under no obligation to register the Units or to

EXHIBIT
A
APPRAISAL
PROCEDURE
Each
party shall within ten (10)
days after written demand by the other select one MAI Appraiser to
participate in the determination of Fair Market Value. For all
purposes, the Fair Market Value shall be the fair market value of the Project
Property unencumbered by any operating lease to which it may then be subject and
without any value being attributed to the benefits, if any, of the Net Cash Flow
Agreement. Within ten (10)
days of such selection, the MAI Appraisers so selected by the parties
shall select a third (3rd) MAI
Appraiser. The three (3) selected MAI Appraisers shall each determine
the Fair Market Value of the Project Property within thirty (30) days of the
selection of the third (3rd)
appraiser. To the extent consistent with sound appraisal practices as
then existing at the time of any such appraisal, and if requested by the
Members, such appraisal shall be made on a basis consistent with the basis on
which the Project Property was appraised at the time of its acquisition by the
applicable Project Entity. The Members shall share the fees and
expenses of any MAI Appraiser retained pursuant to this Exhibit pro rata based
on their Percentage Interests.
If either
party fails to select a MAI Appraiser within the time period set forth in the
foregoing paragraph, the MAI Appraiser selected by the other party shall alone
determine the fair market value of the Project Property in accordance with the
provisions of this Exhibit and the Fair Market Value so determined shall be
binding upon the parties. If the MAI Appraisers selected by the parties are
unable to agree upon a third (3rd) MAI
Appraiser within the time period set forth in the foregoing paragraph, either
party shall have the right to apply to the presiding judge of the court of
original trial jurisdiction in the county in which the Project Property is
located to name the third (3rd) MAI
Appraiser. The cost of any such proceeding shall be shared by the Members pro
rata based on their Percentage Interests.
Within
five (5) days after
completion of the third (3rd) MAI
Appraiser’s appraisal, all three (3) MAI Appraisers shall meet and a majority of
the MAI Appraisers shall attempt to determine the fair market value of the
Project Property. If a majority are unable to determine the fair market value at
such meeting, the three (3) appraisals shall be added together and their total
divided by three (3). The resulting quotient shall be the Fair Market
Value. If, however, either or both of the low appraisal or the high
appraisal are more than ten
percent (10%) lower or higher than the middle appraisal, any such lower
or higher appraisal shall be disregarded. If only one (1) appraisal
is disregarded, the remaining two (2) appraisals shall be added together and
their total divided by two (2), and the resulting quotient shall be such Fair
Market Value. If both the lower appraisal and higher appraisal are
disregarded as provided herein, the middle appraisal shall be such Fair Market
Value. In any event, the result of the foregoing appraisal process
shall be final and binding.
“MAI Appraiser” shall mean an
appraiser licensed or otherwise qualified to do business in the state where the
Project Property is located and who has substantial experience in performing
appraisals of facilities similar to the Project Property and is certified as a
member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers or certified as a
SRPA by the Society of Real Estate Appraisers, or, if such organizations no
longer exist or certify appraisers, such successor organization or such other
organization as is approved by the Members.
