ARTICLE 5: PROFITS, LOSSES, DISTRIBUTIONS

5.1 Allocation of Profit and Losses.

The Profits and Losses of the Company for each Fiscal Year of the Company shall be allocated to the Members pro rata in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests in the company.

5.2 Regulatory Allocations and Other Allocation Rules.

Notwithstanding Section 5.1 hereof, the following special allocations shall be made as follows, and, as appropriate, in the following order:

(a) Losses otherwise allocable to a Member hereunder that would pause such Member (hereinafter, a "Restricted Member") to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as of the end of the Fiscal Year to which such Losses relate shall not be allocated to such Restricted Member and instead shall be allocated to the other Member(s) pro rata in accordance with their relative Percentage Interests.

(b) If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain for any Fiscal Year (except as a result of conversion or refinancing of Company indebtedness, certain capital contributions or revaluation of the Company's property as further outlined in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(d)(4), (f)(2) or (f)(3)), each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to that Member's

share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f). This Section 5.2(b) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in said section of the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.2(b) shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant hereto.

(c) If there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt during any Fiscal Year (other than due to the conversion, refinancing or other change in the debt instrument causing it to become partially or wholly nonrecourse, certain capital contributions, or certain revaluations of the Company's property as further outlined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4)), each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to that Member's share of the net decrease in the Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and (j)(2). This Section 5.2(c) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement with respect to Member Nonrecourse Debt contained in said section of the Treasury regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.2(c) shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant hereto.

(d) In the event a Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5), or (6); and such Member has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as quickly as possible. This Section 5.2(d) is intended to constitute a "qualified income offset" under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(e) Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year or other applicable period shall be allocated to the Members as deemed appropriate by the Tax Matters Member.

(f) Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year or other applicable period shall be specially allocated to the Member that bears the economic risk of loss for the debt (i.e., the Member Nonrecourse Debt) in respect of which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable (as determined under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(4) and (i)(1)).

(g) To the extent necessary to avoid any economic distortions which may result from application of the Regulatory Allocations, future items of income, gain, loss, expense and deduction shall be allocated as appropriate in the reasonable discretion of the Tax Matters Member in order to remedy any economic distortions that the Regulatory Allocations might otherwise cause. For purposes hereof; "Regulatory Allocations" shall mean the allocations provided under Sections 5.2(a) through 5.2(f).

(h) Allocations to Members whose interests vary during a year by reason of transfer, redemption, admission, capital contributions, or otherwise, shall be made as determined by the Tax Matters Member in accordance with permissible methods under Code Section 706.

(i) To the extent that Treasury Regulations Section 1.704.1(b)(2)(iv)(m) requires that Capital Accounts be adjusted with respect to an adjustment to the basis of Company property pursuant to a Code Section 754 election, such adjustment shall be treated as an item of income, gain or loss and allocated to the Members as appropriate.

5.3 Tax Allocations.

(a) Subject to Section 5.3(b), items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit to be allocated for income tax purposes (collectively, "Tax Items") shall be allocated among the Members on the same basis as their respective book items, as provided in Sections 5.2 and 5.3.

(b) If any Company property is subject to Code Section 704(c) or is reflected in the Capital Accounts of the Members and on the books of the Company at a value that differs from the adjusted tax basis of such property, then the tax items with respect to such property shall, in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i), be shared among the Members in a manner that takes account of the variation between the adjusted tax basis of the applicable property and its value in the same manner as variations between the adjusted tax basis and fair market value of property contributed to the Company are taken into account in determining the Members' share of tax items under Code Section 704(c). The Tax Matters Member is authorized to choose any reasonable method permitted by the Treasury Regulations pursuant to Code Section 704(c), including the "remedial allocation" method, the "curative" method and the "traditional" method.

(c) Pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3, each Member's interest in Company profits, for purposes of determining such Member's shares of excess Nonrecourse Liabilities, shall be that Member's Percentage Interest.

(d) The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Agreement and shall report their shares of Profits and Losses for income tax purposes consistently with this Agreement.

5.4 Non-Liquidating Distributions.

(a) Subject to applicable law and any limitations contained elsewhere in this Agreement, the Board may elect from time to time to distribute assets of the Company, including cash, to the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests. Neither the Company nor the Board shall incur any liability for making distributions in accordance with this Section 5.4. No distribution of assets shall be made to the Members if, after giving effect to the distribution, the Company would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business, except for distributions made in violation of the Law or this Agreement, no Member shall be obligated to return any distribution to the Company or pay the amount of any distribution for the account of the Company to any creditor of the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to March 31 of each calendar year, the Company shall distribute to each Member an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) such Member's Percentage Interest, and (ii) the taxable income of the Company (for federal income tax purposes) for the preceding Fiscal Year, and (iii) the sum of (x) the highest marginal federal tax rate for individuals applicable to such Fiscal Year plus (y) the highest marginal California tax rate for individuals applicable to such Fiscal Year.

5.5 Distributions in Liquidation.

Notwithstanding Section 5.4 hereof, distributions in liquidation of the Company or of a Member's interest in the Company shall be made to the Members whose interests are being liquidated in accordance with their positive Capital Account balances after all other adjustments to such Capital Accounts with respect to the year of liquidation. For purposes of this provision, liquidation shall have the meaning assigned to it in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g). The timing of such liquidating distributions shall comply with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1 or any similar regulation promulgated in the future, or if no such regulation exists, as soon as possible. A Member shall have no obligation to restore a deficit Capital Account balance at any time.

5.6 Accounting Method.

The books and records of account of the Company shall be maintained in accordance with the accrual method of accounting. However, the Tax Matters Member shall have the option of filing federal income tax returns on a cash basis, to the extent such reporting is available under the Code.

6.1 Exclusive Management by Board.

Each Member hereby delegates to the Board the exclusive authority to manage the Company's business except as to those matters as to which (a) the approval of the Members is expressly required by this Agreement or by the Act, (b) the Board fails or refuses to act, or (c) the Board submits the matter for approval to the Members. Subject to the provisions of the Certificate, the Act and this Agreement relating to actions required to be approved by the Members, the business, property and affairs of the Company shall be managed and all powers of the Company shall be exercised by or under the direction of the Board, who shall have all of the rights and powers which may be possessed by a "manager" under the Act, and such rights and powers as are otherwise conferred by law or by this Agreement to manage and control the business, property and affairs of the Company, to make all decisions regarding those matters and to perform any and all other acts or activities customary or incident to the management of the Company's business, property and affairs. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the functions of the Board shall include, without limitation: (i) to resolve any questions relating to a potential conflict of interest between the Company and any other Person; (ii) to appoint officers of the Company from time to time; (iii) to authorize distributions pursuant to Article 5; and (iv) to perform such other functions as are provided for in this Agreement. The Board shall have the authority to adopt rules and procedures, not inconsistent with this Agreement, relating to the conduct of its affairs, including the power to take action by resolution of all the Directors without a meeting. The authority of the Board shall be delegated to officers to the extent provided in Section 6.6 hereof, subject to the limitations provided therein. Decisions of the Board within the scope of its authority shall be binding on the Company and each Member. Any Member who takes any action or binds the Company in violation of this Section 6.1 shall be solely responsible for any loss and expense incurred as a result of the unauthorized action and shall indemnify and bold the Company and the other Members harmless with respect to the loss or expense arising out of or relating thereto.

6.2 Meetings of the Board and of the Members.

(a) Calling a Meeting.

No annual or regular meeting of the Members is required. Meetings of the Members may be called, for any purpose, by a majority of the Board, the Chairman of the Board (as hereinafter defined), the CEO (as hereinafter defined) of the Company or by any Member or Members holding in the aggregate a Majority-in-Interest. Meetings of the Board may be called by the Chairman of the Board, any Director or, by the CEO of the Company, provided that the Board, as a group, shall have the authority to establish a regular meeting schedule. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to require that meetings of the Board be held, it being the intent of the Members that meetings of the Board are not required.

(b) Attendance at Meetings; Minutes.

Attendance at meetings of either the Members or the Board may be by speaker telephone or other communications device whereby all those participating in the meeting may hear each other. The Board shall keep written minutes of all meetings; and the minutes of each meeting shall be signed by the Directors attending or participating by conference call. The minutes shall be included in the records of the Company.

(c) Notice; Place of Meetings.

All meetings of the Board or the Members shall be held upon at least four (4) days notice by mail or forty-eight (48) hours notice delivered personally or by telephone, telegraph or facsimile to each Director or Member entitled to vote at such meeting. Such notice shall specify the place, day and hour of the meeting and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is being called. Notice of a meeting need not be given to any Director or Member who signs a waiver of notice or a consent to holding the meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof, whether before or after the meeting, or who attends the meeting without protesting, prior to its commencement, such lack of notice. All such waivers, consents and approvals shall be filed with the Company records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting. Meetings of the Board or the Members may be held at any place within or without the State of California which has been designated in the notice of the meeting or at such place as may be approved by the Board. If all of the Members or Directors shall meet at any time and place and consent to the holding of a meeting at such time and place, such meeting shall be valid without call or notice, and at such meeting lawful action may be taken.

(d) Record Date.

For the purpose of determining Members entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of Members or any adjournment thereof, or, Members entitled to receive payment of any distribution, or in order to make a determination of Members for any other purpose, the record date for the determination of Members shall be the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or otherwise given or the date on which the resolution declaring such distribution is adopted, as the case may be. When a determination of Members entitled to vote at any meeting of Members has been made as provided in this Section 6.2, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof.

(e) Quorum.

Attendance by all Members shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of Members. A majority of the authorized number of Directors constitutes a quorum of the Board for the transaction of business. Except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires the approval of all Directors, every act or decision done or made by a majority of the Board present at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is present is the act of the Directors. A meeting at which a quorum is initially present may continue to transact business notwithstanding the withdrawal of Directors, if any action taken is approved by at least a majority of the required quorum for such meeting. The provisions of this Section 6.2 apply also to committees of the Board and actions taken by such committees.

(f) Manner of Acting.

If a quorum is present at a meeting of the Members, the affirmative vote of Members holding a majority of the aggregate Percentage Interests represented in person or by proxy shall be the act of the Members, unless the vote of a greater or lesser proportion or number is otherwise required by the Act, by the Certificate or by this Agreement. If a quorum is present at a meeting of the Board, the affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors on the Board shall be the act of the Board, unless the

vote of a greater or lesser proportion or number is otherwise required by the Act, by the Certificate or by this Agreement.

(g) Proxies.

At all meetings of Members, a Member may vote in person or by proxy executed in writing by the Member or by a duly authorized attorney-in-fact. Such proxy shall be filed with the CEO, President or Secretary (each as hereinafter defined) of the Company before or at the time of the meeting.

(h) Action Without a Meeting.

Action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of Members or Directors may be taken without a meeting if the action is evidenced by one or more written consents describing the action taken, signed by the Members or Directors; as the case may be, having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take that action at a meeting pursuant to the Act and delivered to the CEO or President for inclusion in the minutes or for filing with the Company records. Action taken under this paragraph is effective when all Members or Directors, as the case may be, having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take that action at a meeting pursuant to the Act have signed the consent, unless the consent specifics a different effective date. The record date for determining Members entitled to take action without a meeting shall be the date the first Member signs a written consent.

(i) Waiver of Notice.

When any notice is required to be given to any Member or Director, a waiver thereof in writing signed by the person entitled to such notice, whether before, at, or after the time stated therein, shall be equivalent to the giving of such notice.

6.3 Election of Board.

(a) Number, Term, and Qualifications.

The authorized number of Directors on the Board shall initially be four (4). The following shall be the initial Directors: Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxxx.

The resignation of any Director shall take effect upon receipt of that notice or at such later time as shall be specified in the notice; and, unless otherwise specified in the notice, the acceptance of the resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. The resignation of a Director who is also a Member shall not affect the Director's rights as a Member and shall not constitute a withdrawal of a Member.

(c) Removal.

All or any lesser number of Directors may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by the affirmative vote of a Majority-in-Interest of the Members at a meeting of the Members, or by the

written consent of a Majority-in-Interest of the Members. Any removal shall be without prejudice to the rights, if any, of the Director under any employment contract and, if the Director is also a Member, shall not affect the Director's rights as a Member or constitute a withdrawal of a Member.

(d) Vacancies.

Any vacancy occurring for any reason in the number of Directors may be filled by the affirmative vote or written consent of a Majority-in-Interest of the Members.

6.9 Indemnification and Liability of Directors and Officers.

(a) None of the Directors or officers of the Company shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Company or any Member for any acts performed, or for any failure to act within the scope of this Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Director and officer of the Company (individually, each an "Indemnitee") shall be indemnified, held harmless and defended by the Company from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, whether joint or several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines and other amounts paid in settlement, incurred or suffered by such Indemnitee, as a party or otherwise, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and whether formal or informal, arising out of or in connection with the business or the operation of the Company, or by reason of the Indemnitee's status as a Director or officer of the Company, regardless of whether the Indemnitee retains such status at the time any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or other expense is paid or incurred if (i) the Indemnitee acted within the scope of such Person's authority pursuant to this Agreement and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that such conduct was unlawful, and (ii) the Indemnitee's conduct did not constitute fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or a material breach of the terms of this Agreement. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to the standards specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 6.9.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding subject to this section shall, 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 Indemnitee to repay such amount unless it is determined that such Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified therefor pursuant to this Section 6.9.

The indemnification provided by this Section 6.9 shall be in addition to any other rights to which any Indemnitee may be entitled under any other agreement, as a matter of law or otherwise, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnitee.

Any indemnification under this Section 6.9 shall be satisfied solely out of the assets of the Company and no Indemnitee shall have any recourse against any Member with respect to such Indemnification.

An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification, in whole or in part, under this Section 6.9 merely because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies, if the transaction was not otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Agreement and the conduct of the Indemnitee satisfies the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

The indemnification provided in this Section 6.9 is for the benefit of the specified Persons only and shall not be deemed to create any right to indemnification for any other Person.

The Company may, but shall have no obligation to, purchase and maintain insurance covering any potential liability of the Indemnitees for any actions or omissions for which indemnification is permitted hereunder including such types of insurance (including extended coverage liability and casualty and workers' compensation) as would be customary for any person engaged in a similar business and may name the Indemnitees as additional insured parties thereunder.

To the extent that the a person entitled to indemnification is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in this Section 6.9, or in the defense of any

claim, issue, or matter therein, the Company shall Indemnify them against the expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection therewith.

6.10 Indemnification Procedures; Survival.

(a) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any action that may result in a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 6.9 hereof, the Indemnitee shall notify the Company in writing within 30 days thereafter; provided, however, that the omission so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of any liability for indemnification pursuant to Section 6.9 hereof as to the particular item for which indemnification may then be sought (except to the extent that the failure to give notice shall have been materially prejudicial to the Company).

(b) An Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any action as to which indemnification may be sought under any provision of this Agreement and to participate in the defense thereof; but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnitee unless (i) the Company has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) the Company has failed to assume the defense thereof without reservation and employ counsel within a reasonable period of time after being given the notice required above, or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnitee and the Company and the Indemnitee shall have been advised by its counsel that representation of such Indemnitee and the Company by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct (whether or not such representation by the same counsel has been proposed) due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood, however, that the Company shall, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of only one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such Indemnitees having actual or potential differing interests with the Company.

(c) The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent, but if settled with such written consent, or if there is a final judgment against the Indemnitee in any such action, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitee to the extent provided above from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(d) The Company may pay the expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defending a pending or threatened civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by such person or entity to repay such payment if such person shall be determined not to be entitled to Indemnification therefor as provided herein; provided, however, that in such instance such person is not defending a civil action, suit or proceeding commenced against such person by the Company itself.

(e) The indemnification obligation set forth in Section 6.9 hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
