Contributions of the Members and bank credit facilities provided to
the Company will provide sufficient capital for the Company's

stated in the Wall Street Journal ("Wall Street Journal Prime") in
effect on the date the loan is made, plus three (3) points,

not be paid interest on their Capital Contributions.

Managers, make cash distributions equal to forty percent (40%) of the

the Company's tax counsel, to amend this Section IV to comply with
the Code and the Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704(b)

Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect
to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall,
solely for income 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.
4.3.2 In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset
is adjusted pursuant to paragraph (ii) 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 Section 704(c) of the Code
and the Regulations thereunder.
4.3.3 Any elections or other decisions relating to
allocations under this Section 4.3, including the selection of any
allocation method permitted under proposed Regulation Section 1.704-

that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement.
Allocations pursuant to this Section 4.3 are solely for purposes of

employee of the Company, in which event such Manager's employee
compensation shall be his/her exclusive compensation for all
services.
5.3.2 Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section
5.3.3 hereof, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict
in any way the rights of any Member or Manager, or of any Affiliate
of any Member, to conduct any other business or activity whatsoever,
and a Member shall not be accountable to the Company or to any Member
with respect to that business or activity even if the business or
activity competes with the Company's business. The organization of
the Company shall be without prejudice to their respective rights (or
the rights of their respective Affiliates) to maintain, expand or
diversify such other interests and activities and to receive and
enjoy profits or compensation therefrom. Each Member waives any
rights the Member might otherwise have to share or participate in
such other interests or activities of any other Member or the
Member's Affiliates.
7
5.3.3 Each Member understands and acknowledges that the
conduct of the Company's business will involve business dealings and
undertakings with Members and their Affiliates. In any of those
cases, those dealings and undertakings shall be at arm's length and
on commercially reasonable terms.
5.4 Liability. Except as otherwise provided by the Delaware Act,
the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in
contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and
liabilities of the Company, and no Covered Person shall be obligated
personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company solely
by reason of being a Covered Person. Except as otherwise expressly
required by law, a Member, in his capacity as such, shall have no liability
in excess of:
5.4.1 the amount of his committed capital contribution
obligations to the extent not made;
5.4.2 his share of any assets and undistributed Profits of
the Company;
5.4.3 his obligation to make other payments expressly
provided for in this Agreement; and
5.4.4 the amount of any distributions wrongfully distributed
to him either as a result of a computational error or any amount in
excess of that permitted to be distributed by the Act.
5.5 Exculpation. No Covered Person shall be liable to the Company
or any other Covered Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by
reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person
in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed
to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Covered Person by
this Agreement, except that a Covered Person shall be liable for any such
loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Covered Person's gross
negligence or willful misconduct, provided nothing herein shall relieve any
Covered Person from its obligations under any agreement between the Covered
Person and the Company or any agreement between Covered Persons.
5.6 Good Faith Reliance. A Covered Person shall be fully protected
in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such
information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by
any Person as to matters the Covered Person reasonably believes are within
such other Person's professional or expert competence and who has been
selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company, including
information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of
the assets, liabilities, profits, losses or net cash flow or any other
facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which
distributions to Members might properly be paid.
8
5.7 Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, a Covered Person shall be entitled to indemnification from the Company
for any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Covered Person by reason of
any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in good
faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be
within the scope of authority conferred on such Covered Person pursuant to
this Agreement, except that no Covered Person shall be entitled to be
indemnified in respect of any loss, damage or claim incurred by such
Covered Person by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct with
respect to such acts or omissions; provided, however, that any indemnity
under this Section 5.7 shall be provided out of and to the extent of
Company assets only, and no Covered Person shall have any personal
liability on account thereof. A condition of the Company's obligation of
indemnification hereunder is that the Covered Person provide the Company
with immediate written notice of any claim for which indemnification is
sought, stating the identity of the claimant, the nature and basis of the
claim and the amount thereof, and copies of all notices, documents and
information obtained or received by the Covered Person (at the time of
notice and in the period following such notice until the claim is
resolved). Thereafter the Covered Person, as a condition of the Company's
obligation of indemnification, shall cooperate in the defense of the claim
by the Company, and shall provide the Company with all additional
information and copies of all documents related to the claim received or
obtained by the Covered Person, or otherwise in the possession of the
Covered Person. The Company promptly will notify the Covered Person of its
election to assume the defense of a claim against a Covered Person, in
which event the Company will defend utilizing counsel of the Company's
choice and at the Company's sole expense, and in the event the Company
makes such election, the Covered Person may also participate in the defense
utilizing his own counsel at his sole expense. In the event the Company is
obligated to indemnify hereunder, and the Company elects not to defend, the
Company will advance the Covered Person's reasonable expenses of counsel.
Covered Person will not independently consent to the settlement of any
claim without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent will
not be unreasonably withheld. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
Company's obligation to indemnify shall in all cases be the same, and
subject to the same conditions and limitations as a Delaware corporation's
obligation to indemnify an officer or director of a Delaware corporation
under [SECTION] 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Laws.
5.8 Expenses. Expenses (including legal fees) incurred by a
Covered Person in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding
may, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to the final
disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt
by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Covered Person to
repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Covered Person is not
entitled to be indemnified as authorized in Section 5.7 hereof.

solely to the Company's assets for the return of their capital
contributions, and if the assets of the Company remaining after payment of

are insufficient to return such capital contributions, the Members and
assignees shall have no recourse against the Company or any other Member.
