Each Member shall be severally liable for his own Capital Contribution and Deferred Capital Contribution and not jointly and severally liable for the Capital Contribution and Deferred Capital Contribution of any other Member.

Section 2.2 Use of Capital. All capital contributed to the LLC shall only be employed in the business and for the benefit and advantage of the LLC.

Section 2.3 Return of Capital. Except as expressly provided herein, no Member shall be entitled to the return of his Capital Contributions. No Capital Account of any Member shall earn interest.

Section 2.4 Capital Account. The LLC shall maintain a Capital Account for each Member. The Capital Account shall be increased by Capital Contributions and income and shall be decreased by distributions and losses. The Capital Account shall be generally maintained in conformity with Code Sec. 704 and Regulations Sec. 1.704.1(b)(2)(iv). All decisions regarding the Capital Accounts shall be made by Members holding a majority of the Ownership Interests.

Section 2.5 Additional Capital.

2.5.1 Deferred Capital Contributions. Additional Capital Contributions as set forth on Exhibit B may be required from the Members from time to time as requested by Members holding a majority of the Ownership Interests thirty (30) days after written notice.

2.5.2 New Capital. If at any time during the LLC’s term there are insufficient LLC Reserves (after consideration of Deferred Capital Contributions) to pay the debt service, operating expenses, or other expenses or costs necessary to operate the Property, the Members shall have the authority to raise additional capital by selling additional Ownership Interests, first to Members and, if necessary, to non-Members. The Members must first offer any new

Ownership Interest pro rata to the existing Members, excluding any Members in default under Section 2.5, upon such terms and conditions, and for such prices, as are proposed for sale to third parties. If the Members do not purchase all the new Ownership Interests within twenty (20) days of notice, then the remaining new Ownership Interests may be offered to non-Members on the same terms and conditions. Such new Members shall be admitted to the LLC upon purchase of the new interests and completion of all required documentation.

Section 2.6 Failure to Contribute.

2.6.1 Material Breach. The Members agree that any failure to make a required Deferred Capital Contribution is critical to the success of the LLC and will jeopardize the investment of all Members. The failure of any Member to make any Deferred Capital Contribution when due (a “Payment Default”) shall constitute a material breach of this agreement, and shall forthwith, upon such Payment Default, give rise to the remedies set forth in this Section (any one or more of which may be pursued by the Members by vote of a majority of the remaining Ownership Interests) in addition to all other remedies which the LLC and all non-defaulting Members may otherwise have under Missouri law excluding consequential damages and damages for lost profits.

2.6.2 Interest on Defaulted Amounts. If any Member is in Payment Default and does not cure such default within fifteen (15) days after notice of such default, he shall pay an interest charge at an annual rate equal to two percent (2%) over Prime Rate, at the time such default occurs, or the then legal maximum, whichever is lower. Such interest rate shall be adjusted every six (6) months during the period of default.

2.6.3 Purchase and Sale of Interest. If any Member is in Payment Default, and the Member does not cure the default within fifteen (15) days by payment of the full amount of the Deferred Capital Contribution which is due, plus accrued interest on the defaulted amount, the Managing Member may send a notice to all non-defaulting Members stating that those non-defaulting Members wishing to purchase said interest shall have the prorata right to do so by giving notice of such intent to the Managing Member within fifteen (15) says of their receipt of the notice. Any Member failing to give such notice of intent within such fifteen (15) day period shall be deemed to have waved such right and any portion of the defaulting Member’s interest not so acquired by non-defaulting Members shall be offered to the remaining non-defaulting Members by notice from the Managing Member and any such non-defaulting Member shall have a pro rata right to acquire the interest offered by giving the Managing Member notice within fifteen (15) days of their receipt of the notice. This procedure will be followed until all of the defaulting Member’s interest has been acquired by the non-defaulting Members if they so elect. (Any Member acquiring such interest is sometimes hereinafter referred to as a “Replacement Member”.)

The total purchase price for any purchase under this Section shall be 100% of the defaulting Member’s Ownership Interest Value, less all interest accrued on the defaulted amount to the date of such purchase, such 100% discount representing the risk, hardship and administrative costs of the default to the LLC. The purchase price shall be payable in cash. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Replacement Member or Members purchase the defaulting Member’s interest, the Replacement Member shall have all rights associated with the entire interest. Any purchaser acquiring a defaulting Member’s interest pursuant to this Section shall be obligated to contribute any remaining additional contributions required of such Member under this Agreement.

2.6.4 Foreclosure of Security Interest. To secure the obligations of the Members to make Deferred Capital Contributions, each Member expressly grants the LLC a personal property security lien upon the interest of each Member. If a Member is in Payment Default for fifteen (15) days end does not cure such Payment Default by payment of the full amount of the Capital Contribution which is due, plus accrued interest before the end of the fifteen (15) day period, the LLC shall have the right on ten (10) days written notice to foreclose the lien and have the interest of the defaulting Member sold at a public or private sale, at the election of the LLC, the foreclosure sale to be conducted in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Missouri pertaining to the foreclosure of a personal property security lien; provided, however, that the remedy provided by this section shall be pursued only after the remedy provided by Section 2.6.3 has been exhausted without Replacement Members purchasing 100%, of the defaulting Member’s interest.

Each Member acknowledges that it will not be feasible to have a public sale for various reasons, including required compliance with provisions concerning registration, qualification or compliance with, the Securities Act of 1933, any successor statute thereto, or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder, or in any other applicable securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder. The Members, therefore, consent and agree that the Ownership Interests may be sold in one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who may be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such Ownership Interest(s) for their own account for investment and not with the view to the distribution or resale thereof, and each member acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on other terms less favorable to the defaulting Member than if such Ownership Interest were sold at a public sale. Each Member agrees that any private sales made under the foregoing circumstances shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner under the Uniform Commercial Code as enforced in the State of Missouri or any other jurisdiction.

2.6.5 Suspension of Defaulting Members’ Rights. All rights and benefits of a defaulting Member attributable to the defaulting Member’s Ownership Interest, including the right to receive distributions of LLC Reserves and Distributable Net Proceeds, shall be suspended during the period of default and the Managing Member shall have the right to exercise all voting rights attributable to the defaulting Member during the period of default; provided, however, that if any distribution of funds is made during the period of default, then the defaulted amounts plus accrued interest will be deducted from any distribution otherwise payable to such defaulting Member; provided, further, that if the amount of the defaulting Member’s allocable share of such distribution does not exceed such Member’s defaulted amount plus accrued interest, then the default shall not be cured, the Member shall continue to be in default to the extent that his defaulted amount plus accrued interest exceeds his allocable share of the distributions to the Members. If the defaulting Member is also a Managing Member, then such member shall be deemed to have resigned as of the date any applicable cure period lapses and shall be replaced as provided in Section 3.2.

2.6.6 Redemption Rights of Defaulting Members. A Member whose Ownership Interest will be sold at foreclosure sale under this Section 2.6 shall have the right only until the transfer of such Ownership Interest to redeem the Ownership Interest by payment, in cash, to the LLC of (a) all costs and expenses, including legal fees associated with any enforcement actions; (b) payment of all Deferred Capital Contributions associated with the Ownership Interest (whether called or not); (c) interest on all amounts owed under (a) and (b) at the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the maximum rate allowed by law from the date such costs and expenses were incurred in the case of (a) and from the date of delinquency in the case of (b).

Section 2.7 Limited Liability of Members. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, however, the liability of a Member for the operating or other losses of the LLC shall in no event exceed, in the aggregate, the amount of his Capital Contributions and obligation to the make Deferred Capital Contributions under Section 2.1 and 2.5. Members shall not be obligated to restore any negative Capital Account balances. No creditor or any party other than the Manager or other Members shall have the right to enforce any obligation to make Deferred Capital Contributions pursuant to Section 2.5 against the Members.

Section 2.8 Loans.

2.8.1 Member’s Loans.

(a) Member’s Loans. Members may make a “Member’s Loan” to the LLC for any purpose determined to be necessary or desirable by the holders of a majority of the Ownership Interests.

(b) Repayment of Member’s Loans. Member’s Loan shall be repaid as funds are available out of: (i) subsequent Capital Contributions; (ii) cash proceeds generated from the ownership and operation of the LLC’s business; and/or (iii) cash proceeds generated from the LLC Property. Member’s Loans shall be repaid prior to any distribution to Members under Article 4.

(c) Interest Rate. Member’s Loans to the LLC shall bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate at the time such loan is made, or the then legal maximum rate, whichever is lower, unless otherwise approved by Members holding a majority of the Ownership Interests. The Prime Rate shall be adjusted (increased or decreased) every six (6) months during the period of the loan.

(d) Obligation to Loan. No Member shall in any way be obligated or required to make loans to the LLC except as specifically set forth herein. If a Member’s Loan is to be made, all Members shall have an opportunity, but not an obligation, to participate in the loan on the basis of their Ownership Interest.

SPECIAL ALLOCATION PROVISIONS

Notwithstanding any other provision of Article 4 regarding allocations of income, gain and loss, and other items, the following “Special Allocation Provisions” shall apply for such taxable periods to the extent applicable to reflect member guaranties of nonrecourse debt, contribution of property and other issues requiring special allocations. The additional definitions set forth below shall apply to such Special Allocation Provisions. All references to the Code of Regulations have been modified to insert Member or LLC in place of partner or Partnership, respectively.

Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for a taxable period shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Ownership Interest percentages. If the Manager determines in its good faith discretion that the LLC’s Nonrecourse Deductions must be allocated in a different ratio to satisfy the safe harbor requirements of the Regulations promulgated under Code Sec. 704(b), the Manager is authorized, upon notice to the Members, to revise the prescribed ratio to the numerically closest ration that does satisfy such requirements.

Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Notwithstanding the Nonrecourse Deductions provision above and any other provision in this Exhibit “C”, Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated 100% to the Member that bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Regulations Sec. 1.704-2(i). If more than one Member bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to Member Nonrecourse Debt, such Member Nonrecourse Deduction attributable thereto shall be allocated between or among such Members in accordance with the ratios in which they share such Economic Risk of Loss.

LLC Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if there is a net decrease in LLC Minimum Gain during any LLC taxable period, each Member shall be allocated items of LLC income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in the manner and amounts provided in Regulations Sec. 1.704-2(f)(6), 1.704-2(g)(2) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(i), or any successor provision. For purposes of determining minimum gain, each Member’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income or gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this LLC Minimum Gain Chargeback provision with respect to such taxable period (other than allocations under the headings Nonrecourse Deductions and Member Nonrecourse Deductions below). This Section is intended to comply with the LLC Minimum Gain Chargeback requirement in Regulations Sec. 1.704-2(f) Ownership Interest Percentages set forth in Section 4.2.

Code Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any LLC asset pursuant to Sec. 734(b) or 743(b) of the Code is required, pursuant to Regulations Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m) to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such item of 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 such section of the Regulations.

Contributed Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, to the extent Code Sec. 704(c) or Code Sec. 704(c) principles applicable under Regulations Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) require allocations of taxable items of income or loss in a manner different from that set forth above, the provisions of Code Sec. 704(c) and Regulations promulgated thereunder shall control such allocations of taxable items.

Additional Definitions Applicable to Special Allocation Provisions.

“Adjusted Capital Account” means the Capital Account maintained for each Member as of the end of each fiscal year of the LLC, (a) increased by any amounts that such Member is obligated to restore under the standards set by Regulations Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c) (or is deemed obligated to restore under Regulations Sec. 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5) and (b) decreased by (i) the amount of all losses and deductions that, as of the end of such fiscal year, are reasonably expected to be allocated to such Member in subsequent years under Sec. 704(e)(2) and 706(d) of the Code and Regulations Sec. 1.751-1(b)(2)(ii), and (ii) the amount of all distributions that, as of the end of such fiscal year, are reasonably expected to be made to such Member in subsequent years in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or otherwise to the extent that they exceed offsetting increases to such Member’s Capital Account that are reasonably expected to occur during (or prior to) the year in which such distributions are reasonably expected to be made (other than increases as a result of a Minimum Gain Chargeback). The foregoing definition of Adjusted Capital Account is intended to comply with the provisions of Regulations Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
