(i) permit the non-Delinquent Member(s) to advance that portion of the Additional Capital Contribution that is in default as a loan (a “Default Loan”) with the following results: (A) the sum thus advanced shall constitute a loan to the Delinquent Member for which the Delinquent Member will pledge its interests in the Company as security for such loan; (B) such loan and all accrued unpaid interest thereon shall be due on demand, or if no demand is made, twelve (12) months after such advance is made; (C) the loan shall bear interest at the lesser of twelve percent (12%) per annum or the highest rate permitted by applicable law, from the date made until the date fully repaid compounding monthly; (D) all Company distributions and other payments that otherwise would be made to the Delinquent Member (whether before or after dissolution of the Company) under this Agreement (including those under Article 6) shall be paid to the non-Delinquent Member until the loan and all interest accrued thereon is paid in full (with all such payments being applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and then to principal and being deemed to be a distribution or payment (as may apply) to the Delinquent Member, and, in turn, a payment by the Delinquent Member with respect to the loan from the non-Delinquent Member); and (E) the non-Delinquent Member may, in addition to the other rights granted herein, take such action as the non-Delinquent Member may deem appropriate to obtain payment of the loan at the expense of the Delinquent Member; or
(ii) permit the non-Delinquent Member to contribute that portion of the Additional Capital Contribution that is in default as an Additional Capital Contribution made by the non-Delinquent Member, in which case the non-Delinquent Member shall have its Company Percentage increased and the Delinquent Member shall have its Company Percentage decreased in the following manner: (A) the Company Percentage of the non-Delinquent Member immediately following such Additional Capital Contributions shall be increased by an amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) x A/B, where ‘A’ equals the amount the non-Delinquent Member contributed in respect of the Delinquent Member’s required Additional Capital Contribution, and ‘B’ equals the sum of all unreturned Capital Contributions previously made to the Company by all Members after giving effect to the amounts advanced under this Section 3.3(b)(ii) on behalf of the Delinquent Member; and (B) the Company Percentage of the Delinquent Member shall be decreased by the increase of the non-Delinquent Member’s
10
Company Percentage. An example of the operation of this Section 3.3(b)(ii) is set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto.
(c) The exercise by the Company of the remedies set forth in Section 3.3(b) above shall be determined by the non-Delinquent Members in their sole discretion and not by any Delinquent Member.
(d) With respect to any efforts by the BH Investor to obtain loans to the Company from a third party or a Member, the financing terms must be substantially similar to (or more favorable than) loans which the Company could obtain on a competitive arms-length basis. If the BH Investor is unable to determine whether the financing terms are competitive on an arms-length basis, the BH Investor may seek and rely upon the advice of an independent expert in financing. If any Member makes any loan or loans to the Company or advances money on its behalf, the amount of any loan or advance shall not be treated as a Capital Contribution but shall be treated as a debt due from the Company to such Member.
Any Default Loan made by a non-Delinquent Member hereunder may be assigned by such non-Delinquent Member to an Affiliate of the non-Delinquent Member and such Affiliate shall have the right to exercise any and all rights granted to the non-Delinquent Member hereunder with respect to such Default Loan. The Partners agree that in the event that the BH Investor shall make a Default Loan hereunder, the BH Investor may structure the loan with such terms (including, if necessary, structuring the Default Loan as a loan to the Company or structuring the Default Loan so that it complies with the requirements of Revenue Procedure 2003-65, I.R.B. 2003-32) as may be required to ensure that XX XXXX will not be treated as holding securities having a value of more than ten percent (10%) of the total voting power or the total value of any one issuer for purposes of Code Section 856(c)(4).

the Company for any obligations to third parties in excess of the Capital Contributions actually made under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 hereof.
5.2 Indemnification.
(a) The Members (including their members, partners, officers, directors, agents, employees and representatives) shall be indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by law, against any losses, judgments, liabilities, expenses and amounts paid in settlement of any claims sustained by it or any of them in connection with the Company, provided that (1) the Member has determined in good faith that such course of conduct was in, and not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and such liability or loss was not the result of gross negligence or willful misconduct, or a material breach of this Agreement on the part of the Member or such person, and (2) any such indemnification will only be recoverable from the assets of the Company and the Members shall not have any liability on account thereof. All rights to indemnification permitted herein and payment of associated expenses shall not be affected by the dissolution or other cessation of the existence of any Member, or the withdrawal, adjudication of bankruptcy or insolvency of any Member.
(b) Expenses incurred in defending a threatened or pending civil, administrative or criminal action, suit or proceeding against any person who may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.2 may be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, if (i) the legal action relates to the performance of duties or services by such person on behalf of the Company, (ii) the legal action is initiated by a third party who is not a Member, and (iii) such person undertakes to repay the advanced funds to the Company in cases in which it is not entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.2.
5.3 Other Business Activities. Subject to the other express provisions of this Agreement, each Member and any Affiliate thereof may engage in and possess interests in other business ventures of any and every type and description, independently or with others, including ones in direct or indirect competition with the Company, with no obligation to offer to the Company or any other Member the right to participate therein or to account therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CP Investor and its affiliates (except for Swinerton, Inc.) shall not own an interest in or participate in the acquisition, development or redevelopment of any project similar to any component of the Property in or within thirty (30) miles of Vail, Colorado on their own or with any other party during the term of the Management Agreements or Development Agreements.
5.4 Information.

No public announcement, press release or other similar public disclosure of the terms of this Agreement, the activities of the Company, or the plans of the Company will be made unless same is authorized in writing by the BH Investor. However, notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any Member shall have the right, without obtaining the consent of any other Member, to make such disclosures as may, in the reasonable judgment of such Member’s counsel, be required by applicable law. Furthermore, it is agreed that the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.5 shall not prohibit a Member from disclosing such information to the accountants, attorneys, consultants, lenders and vendors of the Company as is necessary to allow such parties to provide services, funds or goods to the Company.

Marketing and promotional materials approved as part of the Business Plan shall be excluded from this Section 5.5. The Members have agreed that if a Member breaches the obligation set forth in the first sentence of this Section 5.5 (the “Non-Disclosure Obligation”), the actual damages that will be incurred by the other Members as a result of such breach would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine. Therefore, the Members agree that if a Member or any Affiliate of a Member breaches the Non-Disclosure Obligation, such Member shall pay to each of the other Members liquidated damages (the “Liquidated Damages”) in the amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) for each such breach, such amount having been agreed upon, after negotiation, as the Members’ reasonable estimate of the damages that will be suffered by reason of a breach of the Non-Disclosure Obligation. Any Liquidated Damages becoming payable pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall be paid within ten (10) days after the breach of the Non-Disclosure Obligation giving rise to the Liquidated Damages. If not paid within such ten (10) day period, the Liquidated Damages shall thereafter bear interest at the lesser of twelve percent (12%) per annum or the highest rate permitted by applicable law. All Company distributions and other payments that otherwise would be made to the Member that is liable for Liquidated Damages shall be paid to the other Members until the Liquidated Damages and all interest accrued thereon are paid in full (with all such payments being applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and then to the Liquidated Damages).

ARTICLE VII.
ALLOCATION OF PROFITS AND LOSSES
7.1 Allocation of Profits and Losses. After application of Section 7.3 hereof, Profits and Losses for each fiscal year or a portion thereof shall be allocated among the Members as of each Adjustment Date so as to reduce, proportionately, in the case of any Profits, the difference between their respective Target Accounts and Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts as of each Adjustment Date and, in the case of Losses, the difference between their respective Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts and Target Accounts as of each Adjustment Date. To the extent that, in the fiscal year in which all or substantially all of the Company’s assets are disposed of, or in the fiscal year in which the Company is liquidated, the allocation of Profit or Loss set forth in the preceding sentence does not cause each Member’s Partially Adjusted Capital Account balance to equal the balance of its Target Account, items of income or gain will be reallocated to any Member with a Partially Adjusted Capital Account which is less than its Target Account, and items of loss, deduction or expense will be reallocated to any Member with a Partially Adjusted Capital Account that is greater than its Target Account in such manner as to reduce, to the greatest extent possible, the difference between each Member’s respective balance in its Target Account and its Partially Adjusted Capital Account balance.
7.2 Limitation on Loss Allocations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Losses or item of deduction shall be allocated to a Member if such allocation would cause the Capital Account of such Member to have a deficit in excess of the sum of (a) the amount of additional capital such Member would be required to contribute to the Company if the Company were to dissolve on the last day of the accounting period to which such allocation relates, if any, plus (b) such Member’s distributive share of Company Minimum Gain as of the last day of such accounting period, determined pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(1), plus (c) such Member’s share of Member Minimum Gain as of the last day of such year, determined pursuant to Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(5). Any amounts not allocated to a Member pursuant to the limitations set forth in this paragraph shall be allocated to the other Members to the extent possible without violating the limitations set forth in this paragraph. For purposes of the foregoing provisions, the balance of a Member’s Capital Account shall be determined after reducing such Capital Account by (i) all anticipated allocations of loss or deduction pursuant to Sections 704(e)(2) and 706(d) of the Code, and Section 1.751-1(b)(2)(ii) of the Regulations, and (ii) anticipated distributions to such Member to the extent such anticipated distributions exceed anticipated increases to such Member’s Capital Account during or prior to the year of distribution (other than increases which may not be taken into account pursuant to Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6) of the Regulations).
7.3 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, in the event there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during a Company taxable year, each Member shall be allocated (before any other allocation is made
19
pursuant to this Section 7.3) items of income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, for subsequent years) equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain. The determination of a Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). The items to be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with this Section 7.3(a) shall be determined in accordance with Regulation Section 1.704-2(f)(6). This Section 7.3(a) is intended to comply with the Minimum Gain chargeback requirement set forth in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(b) Member Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(i)(4), in the event there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain during a Company taxable year, each Member who has a share of that Member Minimum Gain as of the beginning of the year, to the extent required by Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4), shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain. Allocations pursuant to this subparagraph (b) shall be made in accordance with Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4). This Section 7.3(b) is intended to comply with the requirement set forth in Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(c) Qualified Income Offset Allocation. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Regulation 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) or which would cause the negative balance in such Member’s Capital Account to exceed the sum of (i) his obligation to restore a Capital Account deficit upon liquidation of the Company, plus (ii) his share of Company Minimum Gain determined pursuant to Regulation Section 1.704-2(g)(1), plus (iii) such Member’s share of Member Minimum Gain determined pursuant to Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(5), items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate such excess negative balance in his Capital Account as quickly as possible. This Section 7.3(c) is intended to comply with the alternative test for economic effect set forth in Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(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) any amounts such Member is obligated to restore pursuant to this Agreement, plus (ii) such Member’s distributive share of Minimum Gain as of such date, plus such Member’s share of Member Minimum Gain determined pursuant to Regulation Section 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 7.3(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 Section 7.3 have been made, except assuming that Section 7.3(c) above and this Section 7.3(d) were not contained in this Agreement.
(e) Allocation of Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Company Percentages.
(f) Allocation of Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated as prescribed by the Regulations.
(g) Basis Adjustment under Section 754. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company assets pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of
20
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 a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the Regulations.
7.4 Built-In Gain or Loss/Section 704(c) Tax Allocations. In the event that the Capital Accounts of the Members are credited with or adjusted to reflect the Gross Asset Value of the Company’s property and assets, the Members’ distributive shares of depreciation, depletion, amortization, and gain or loss, as computed for tax purposes, with respect to such property, shall be determined pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code and the Regulations thereunder, so as to take account of the variation between the adjusted tax basis and Gross Asset Value of such property in a manner determined by Approval by Company Vote. Any deductions, income, gain or loss specially allocated pursuant to this Section 7.4 shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining Profits or Losses or for purposes of adjusting a Member’s Capital Account.
7.5 Recapture. Ordinary income arising from the recapture of depreciation and unrecaptured Section 1250 gain shall be allocated to the Members in the manner that is prescribed by the Regulations, or if the Regulations do not prescribe a manner in which depreciation is to be recaptured, then depreciation shall be recaptured in the same manner as such depreciation was allocated to the Members.
7.6 Retention of Section 751 Assets. Upon the occurrence of an event which would otherwise cause a reduction in a Member’s respective interest in the Company’s Section 751 assets (“substantially appreciated inventory” and “unrealized receivables” as defined in Section 751 of the Code), such as the admission of new Members or otherwise, no such reduction shall occur with respect to Members who were Members immediately preceding such event and who continue to be Members after the occurrence of such event but, rather, each such Member shall retain his respective interest in the Company’s Section 751 assets existing immediately prior to such event.
7.7 Prohibition Against Retroactive Allocations. In the event that a Member Transfers all or a portion of its Company interest, or if there is a reduction in a Member’s Company Percentage due to the admission of new Members or otherwise, each Member’s distributive share of Company items of income, loss, credit, etc., shall be allocated using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the related Treasury Regulations in the sole discretion of the BH Investor.
7.8 Allocation of Nonrecourse Liabilities. The “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Company (within the meaning of Section 1.752-3(a)(3) of the Regulations) shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Company Percentage.

adversely impact the REIT status of XX XXXX or the reputation of the Company. Any act in violation of this Article shall be null and void as against the Company and the Members, except as otherwise provided by law.
8.2 Conditions Upon Transfers by a Member. A Member may Transfer all or any part of such Member’s interest in the Company only with the written consent of the Members (subject to Approval by Company Vote); provided, however, that the Members’ written consent shall not be given unless:
(i) the Members are satisfied that the proposed Transfer will not have any adverse effect upon the Company or the Members under federal income tax laws then in effect or cause any default in any loan documents of the Company or the Property owner;
(ii) the Members have received, if requested, an opinion from counsel for the Company to the effect that such Transfer will not violate federal or state securities laws or regulations;
(iii) the person, firm or entity to acquire such interest agrees to comply with all terms of this Agreement, including without limitation Section 8.5 below; and
(iv) the Members confirm with tax counsel for XX XXXX that such transfer will not adversely impact the REIT Status of XX XXXX.
8.3 Substitution of Assignee. Except as otherwise permitted herein, no Transferee of the whole or any portion of a Member’s interest in the Company shall have the right to be admitted to the Company and become a Member unless and until all of the Members in their absolute discretion consent and all of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) the Transferor and Transferee execute and acknowledge a written instrument of assignment, together with such other instruments as the Members may deem necessary or desirable to effect the admission of the Transferee as a substitute Member; and
(b) an instrument specifically Transferring such interest, signed by both assignor and assignee, shall be filed with the remaining Member, and until such instrument is so filed, the Company shall not recognize any Transfer of interest for the purposes of making payments of profits, income or any other distribution with respect to such interest.
8.4 Buy-Sell Agreement.
(a) Upon the failure of Members to agree on any Major Decision or any other issue that could have a material impact on the Company, in the event of termination of the Hotel Development Agreement, the Fractional Development Agreement or the Fractional Management Agreement, or at any time after three (3) years after the execution of this Agreement, any Member that is not a Delinquent Member (the “Offeror”) may make an offer in writing (the “Offer”) to the other Members (the “Offeree”), which shall state an amount (the “Buy-Sell Value”) determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Offeror. The Buy-Sell Value shall equal the fair market value of the Assets. An offer made pursuant to this Section 8.4 shall constitute an irrevocable offer by the Offeror to the Offeree either (i) to sell all, but not less than all, of the Offeror’s interests in the Company (including any interests held by, or Transferred to, its Affiliates), so long as the Offeree is not a Delinquent Member, or (ii) to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Offeree’s interests in the Company (including any interests held by or Transferred to its Affiliates).
22
(b) If the Offeree believes in good faith that the Buy-Sell Value represents less than the fair market value of the Assets at the time of the Offer, then Offeree may, within ten (10) days of receipt of the Offer, deliver a written notice to the Offeror indicating that that an appraisal shall be required to determine the Buy-Sell Value. If the Offeree does not deliver such a notice within the ten (10) -day period, the Offeree will be deemed to have accepted the Buy-Sell Value. Both Offeror and Offeree shall each select an appraiser from a nationally recognized business valuation services firm qualified to perform hotel/spa business valuation appraisals within ten (10) days after receipt by Offeror of written notice that an appraisal shall be required. The two appraisers shall determine the Buy-Sell Value as of the time of the Offer within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the 10-day appraiser selection period. If the two appraisers can not agree on the Buy-Sell Value within the 30-day period (the “Initial Appraisal Period”) then the appraisers shall jointly select a third appraiser with similar qualifications within five (5) business days after the end of the Initial Appraisal Period and such appraiser shall determine the Buy-Sell Value within thirty (30) days after the end of the five (5) -day appraiser selection period (the “Additional Appraisal Period”). The determination of the Buy-Sell Value by the third appraiser shall be final.
(c) The Offeree shall have thirty (30) days after the later of (i) receipt of an Offer made pursuant to this Section 8.4(a) or (ii) the expiration of the Initial Appraisal Period (or, if necessary, the Additional Appraisal Period), if necessary, to elect either (A) to sell its interests in the Company at a price equal to the amount the Offeree would have received pursuant to a liquidation of the Company if the Assets had been sold to a third party for the Buy-Sell Value and the proceeds therefrom had been applied and distributed in accordance with Section 12.2 (assuming that all allocations resulting from the sale had been made and no reserves are established) (the “Buy-Sell Election Period”); or (B) to buy the Offeror’s interest in the Company at a price equal to the amount the Offeror would have received pursuant to a liquidation of the Company if the Assets had been sold to a third party for the Buy-Sell Value and the proceeds therefrom had been applied and distributed in accordance with Section 12.2 (assuming that all allocations resulting from the sale had been made and no reserves are established). If the Offeree fails to make such an election within the Buy-Sell Election Period, the Offeree shall be deemed to have elected to sell its interests in the Company. Within ten (10) days of the expiration of the Buy-Sell Election Period, the purchasing Member shall deposit into escrow a non-refundable amount equal to one percent (1.0%) of the Buy-Sell Value (the “Escrow Deposit”) with a nationally recognized title insurance company mutually acceptable to the Members, which amount shall be applied to the purchase price as of the Closing. In any case in which there is more than one purchasing Member, the purchasing Members shall determine the proportions of the interests in the Company to be purchased by each such Member.
(d) Closing shall occur at the offices of the Company no later than thirty (30) days following the date after the expiration of the Buy-Sell Election Period. It is understood and agreed that if a portion of the Assets are sold between the time that the Offeror initiates the procedure set forth Section 8.4(a) above and closing, the proceeds of such sale shall be retained by the Company and not distributed to the Members. At the closing, the applicable interests in the Company shall be duly conveyed, free of all liens and encumbrances, and the purchase price shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds. At the election of the purchasing Member, the applicable interests in the Company to be purchased may be acquired in the name of a nominee (whether or not such nominee is an Affiliate of the Purchasing Member), provided, that the Purchasing Member shall have designated such nominee by written notice prior to the date of purchase. It shall be a condition of the selling Member’s obligation to proceed with any such purchase that the purchasing Member shall have obtained releases of any guaranties of indebtedness of the Company executed by the selling Member or any Affiliates of (or principals in) such selling Member. The purchasing Member, in addition to paying at the closing the purchase price, shall be obligated to loan to the Company an amount sufficient to discharge at the closing all outstanding and unpaid obligations of the Company to the selling Member as of such time.
23
(e) Upon receipt of the purchase price, the selling Member shall execute and deliver all documents reasonably required to transfer the interest in the Company being sold. The selling Member shall also execute such resignations and other documents as may be reasonably required by counsel for the Company to accomplish the withdrawal of the selling Member as a Member of the Company and the purchasing Member shall assume all of the selling Member’s obligations to the Company and any of its creditors under any loans to the Company permitted by this Agreement, such assumptions to be in form reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the selling Member.
(f) It is expressly agreed that the remedy at law for breach of any of the obligations set forth in this Section 8.4 is inadequate in view of (i) the complexities and uncertainties in measuring the actual damages that would be sustained by reason of the failure of a Member to comply fully with each of said obligations, and (ii) the uniqueness of the Company business and Members’ relationship. Accordingly, each of the aforesaid obligations shall be, and is hereby expressly made, enforceable by specific performance.
8.5 Cost and Expense of Transfer; Allocation of Profits and Losses. All costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with any disposition of a Member’s interest, including any filing, recording and publishing costs and the fees and disbursements of counsel, shall be paid by the Member disposing of such interest. If an interest in the Company is disposed of pursuant to this Article VIII, the selling Member shall nevertheless be entitled to a portion of the profits and be charged with a portion of the losses allocated to such interest or part thereof for the fiscal year of the Company in which such disposition occurs, consistent with Section 7.7 above.
ARTICLE IX.
OWNERSHIP OF COMPANY PROPERTY

10.3 Accounts. All funds of the Company shall be deposited in its name in an account or accounts maintained at a bank designated by the BH Investor or with an agent designated by the Members. Checks shall be drawn upon the Company account or accounts only for purposes of the Company and shall be signed by the Member holding a Majority in Interest of the Company Percentages or such officers as the Member holding a Majority in Interest of the Company Percentages shall designate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CP Investor may designate such bank to be used solely for cash used for day to day operations so long as such bank is federally chartered and insured and the short term unsecured debt obligations of such bank are rated at least “A-1” by S&P, “P-1” by Xxxxx’x and “F-1+” by Fitch if deposits are held for a period of less than a year or the long term unsecured debt obligations of such bank are rated at least “ AA-” by S&P, “Aa2” by Xxxxx’x and “AA” by Fitch if deposits are held for a period of one year or more.
10.4 Federal Tax Elections. All elections for federal tax purposes, including but not limited to an election to adjust the basis of the assets of the Company pursuant to Section 754 of the Code, and the adoption of accelerated depreciation or cost recovery methods required or permitted to be made by the Company under the Code shall be determined by the BH Investor.
10.5 Tax Audits. The BH Investor shall be designated as the “tax matters member” of the Company as defined in Sections 6221 et seq, of the Code and, in the event of an audit of the Company by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), the BH Investor, at Company expense, shall have the exclusive right to conduct all negotiations with the Internal Revenue Service on behalf of the Company, and the attorneys and accountants selected by the Members to conduct such negotiations are hereby specifically authorized by the Members to act on behalf of the Company in such negotiations, and each Member will execute such further authority as the IRS may require to permit the BH Investor and its selected attorneys and accountants to so represent the Members; provided the BH Investor shall not take any action take any action contemplated by Sections 6222 through 6232 of the Code without prior Approval by Company Vote. This provision is not intended to authorize the BH Investor to take any action left to the determination of an individual Member under Sections 6222 through 6232 of the Code.

AMENDMENT
This Agreement may not be altered or amended except by a written instrument signed by the Members, provided that no amendment may reduce a Member’s economic interest in the Company without the Member’s prior written consent
ARTICLE XII.
DISSOLUTION OF THE COMPANY
12.1 Dissolution.
(a) It is the intention of the Members that the Company shall be continued by the Members, or those remaining, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, notwithstanding the occurrence of any event which would otherwise result in a dissolution of the Company pursuant to the law of the State of Delaware and no Member shall be released or relieved of any duty or obligation hereunder by reason of any such dissolution; provided, however, that the Company shall be terminated, its affairs wound up and its property and assets distributed on the earlier of:
(i) expiration of the Company term as provided in Section 1.5 hereof;
(ii) the written consent of the Members;
(iii) the disposition (including condemnation or casualty loss) of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company and receipt of the proceeds from such sale of other disposition (except under circumstances where (x) all or a portion of the purchase price is payable after the closing of the sale or other disposition, or (y) the Company retains a material economic or ownership interest in the entity to which all or substantially all of its assets are Transferred); or
(iv) dissolution by law or appropriate judicial decree.
(b) Dissolution of the Company shall be effective on December 31, 2057 or the day on which the event occurs giving rise to the dissolution, but the Company shall not terminate until the Certificate shall have been canceled and the assets of the Company shall have been distributed as provided below. Notwithstanding the dissolution of the Company, prior to the termination of the Company as aforesaid, the business of the Company and the affairs of the Members shall continue to be governed by this Agreement.
(c) The bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution, or adjudication of incompetency of a Member shall not cause the dissolution of the Company. In the event of the bankruptcy, or incompetency of a Member, its administrators or representatives (“Successor”) shall have the same rights that such Member would have had if it had not become bankrupt, except that, in the event of bankruptcy, such Successor shall have no right to participate in the management of the Company or vote on any Company matter unless such Successor is admitted to the Company as a Member pursuant to Section 8.5, and the interest of such Member in the Company shall, until the termination of the Company, otherwise be subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement as if such Member had not become bankrupt. In the event of any other withdrawal of a Member, the Member shall only be entitled to
26
Company distributions distributable to it but not actually paid to it prior to such withdrawal and shall not have any right to have its interest in the Company purchased or paid for.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, upon a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in a single transaction (a “Single Sale Transaction”) where all or any portion of the consideration payable to the Company is to be received by the Company more than ninety (90) days after the date on which such Single Sale Transaction occurs, the Company shall continue for purposes of collecting the deferred payments and making distributions to the Members. In such event (i) gain recognized and cash distributed in any year as a result of such Single Sale Transaction shall be allocated and distributed among the Members in the same proportion as such gain and cash would have been allocated and distributed were the entire gain resulting from such Single Sale Transaction required to be recognized for Federal income tax purposes in the year in which such Single Sale Transaction occurred; and (ii) income attributable to interest on deferred payments shall be allocated among, and such interest shall be distributed to, the Members as if the deferred payment obligations received by the Company had been distributed to the Members pursuant to Section 6.1.
12.2 Wind-Up of Affairs. As expeditiously as possible following the occurrence of an event giving rise to a termination of the Company pursuant to Section 12.1 above, a liquidator appointed by the BH Investor (subject to Approval by Company Vote) (such liquidator is referred to herein as the “Liquidator”) shall liquidate the assets of the Company, apply and distribute the proceeds thereof as contemplated by this Agreement and cause the cancellation of the Certificate. As soon as possible after the dissolution of the Company, a full account of the assets and liabilities of the Company shall be taken, and a statement shall be prepared by the independent accountants then acting for the Company setting forth the assets and liabilities of the Company. A copy of such statement shall be furnished to each of the Members within ninety (90) days after such dissolution. Thereafter, the Liquidator shall wind up the affairs of the Company and distribute the Company assets in the following order of priority:
(a) to creditors (including Members who are creditors) in satisfaction of the liabilities of the Company, other than liabilities to existing and former Members for distributions from the Company;
(b) to the establishment of any reserves which the Liquidator deems reasonably necessary for any contingencies or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company. Such reserves shall be paid over by the Liquidator to an escrow agent or shall be held by the Liquidator for the purpose of disbursing such reserves in payment of any of such contingencies. At the expiration of such period as the Liquidator deems advisable, the balance thereof shall be distributed in the manner and order provided in this Section;
(c) to existing and former Members in satisfaction of any liabilities to them, if any, for distributions from the Company;
(d) to the Members in accordance with Section 6.1 above.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event the Company is “liquidated” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g) and an event described in Section 12.1(a) shall have occurred, liquidating distributions shall be made pursuant to this Section 12.2 by the end of the taxable year in which the Company is liquidated, or, if later, within ninety (90) days after the date of such liquidation. Distributions pursuant to the preceding sentence may be made to a trust for the purpose of an orderly liquidation of the Company by the trust in accordance with the Act.
27
12.3 Compliance with Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that the allocations provided in Section 7.1 result in distributions required pursuant to Section 12.2(d) being in accordance with positive Capital Accounts as provided for in the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 704(b). However, if after giving hypothetical effect to the allocations required by Section 7.1, the Capital Accounts of the Members are in such ratios or balances that distributions pursuant to Section 12.2(d) would not be in accordance with the positive Capital Accounts of the Members as required by the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 704(b), such failure shall not affect or alter the distributions required by Section 12.2(d). Rather, the liquidator will have the authority to make other allocations of Profits and Losses (or items thereof) among the Members which, to the extent possible, will result in the Capital Accounts of each Members having a balance prior to distribution equal to the amount of distributions to be received by such Members pursuant to Section 12.2(d).
12.4 No Deficit Capital Account Obligation. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, upon a liquidation within the meaning of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g) of the Regulations, if any Member has a deficit Capital Account (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 Contribution, and the negative balance of such Member’s Capital Account shall not be considered a debt owed by such Member to the Company or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever.
12.5 Distribution in Kind. If any assets of the Company are to be distributed in kind, the net fair market value of such assets as of the date of dissolution shall be determined by independent appraisal or by agreement of the Members. Prior to distribution, such assets shall be deemed to have been sold for their fair market values and the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to reflect the allocation of gain or loss which would have resulted from such deemed sale.
12.6 Cancellation of Certificate. Upon the dissolution and the final liquidation of the Company, there shall be filed for record as provided by Delaware law a Certificate of Cancellation executed by the Member holding the Majority in Interest of the Company Percentages.
12.7 Return of Contribution 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 Company property remaining after the payment or discharge of the debts and liabilities of the Company is insufficient to return the cash contribution of one or more Members, such Member or Members shall have no recourse against any other Member.

NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, PRIOR TO SUBMITTING ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER TO ARBITRATION, THE MEMBERS SHALL FIRST ATTEMPT IN GOOD FAITH, FOR THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE FIRST NOTICE GIVEN UNDER THIS AGREEMENT REGARDING SUCH DISPUTE, TO RESOLVE ANY SUCH DISPUTE PROMPTLY BY NEGOTIATION BETWEEN EXECUTIVES OF EACH PARTY WHO HAVE AUTHORITY TO SETTLE THE DISPUTE, WHICH SHALL INCLUDE AN IN-PERSON MEETING BETWEEN SUCH EXECUTIVES IN DALLAS, TEXAS.
(a) Any dispute between the Members as to the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement or the rights and obligations of any party hereunder shall be resolved through binding arbitration as hereinafter provided in Denver, Colorado. If arbitration is required to resolve a dispute between the Members, a panel of three (3) arbitrators shall be convened. Each of BH Investor and CP Investor shall each select one (1) arbitrator with at least five (5) years experience in commercial real estate in general and hotel operation in particular, and those two (2) arbitrators shall by agreement select a third arbitrator having recognized expertise and at least five (5) years experience in commercial real estate in general and hotel operation in particular.
(b) The arbitrators selected pursuant to Section 13.16(b) above will establish the rules for proceeding with the arbitration of the dispute, which will be binding upon all parties to the arbitration proceeding. The arbitrators may use the rules of the American Arbitration Association for commercial arbitration but are encouraged to adopt the rules the arbitrators deem appropriate to accomplish the arbitration in the quickest and least expensive manner possible. Accordingly, the arbitrators may (i) dispense with any formal rules of evidence and allow hearsay testimony so as to limit
30
the number of witnesses required, (ii) minimize discovery procedures as the arbitrators deem appropriate, (iii) limit the time for presentation of any party’s case as well as the amount of information or number of witnesses to be presented in connection with any hearing, and (iv) impose any other rules which the arbitrators believe appropriate to effect a resolution of the dispute as quickly and inexpensively as possible. In any event, the arbitrators (A) shall permit each side no more than two (2) depositions (including any deposition of experts), which depositions may not exceed four (4) hours each, one set of 10 interrogatories (inclusive of sub-parts) and one set of five (5) document requests (inclusive of sub-parts); (B) shall not permit any requests for admissions; (C) shall limit the hearing, if any, to two (2) days; and (D) shall render their decision within sixty (60) days of the filing of the arbitration.
(c) The arbitrators will have the exclusive authority to determine and award costs of arbitration and the costs incurred by any party for its attorneys, advisors and consultants.

(e) In reaching any determination or award, the arbitrators will apply the laws of the state of Delaware. Except as permitted under Section 13.16(d) above, the arbitrators’ award will be limited to actual damages and will not include consequential, special, punitive or exemplary damages. Nothing contained in this Agreement will be deemed to give the arbitrators any authority, power or right to alter, change, amend, modify, add to or subtract from any of the provisions of this Agreement. All privileges under state and federal law, including, without limitation, attorney-client, work product and party communication privileges, shall be preserved and protected. All experts engaged by a party must be disclosed to the other party within fourteen (14) days after the date of notice and demand for arbitration is given.
(f) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any party may seek injunctive relief or other form of ancillary relief at any time from any court of competent jurisdiction in Denver, Colorado. In the event that a dispute or controversy requires emergency relief before the matter may be resolved under the arbitration procedures of this Section 13.16, notwithstanding the fact that any court of competent jurisdiction may enter an order providing for injunctive or other form of ancillary relief, the parties expressly agree that such arbitration procedures will still govern the ultimate resolution of that portion of the dispute or controversy not resolved pursuant to said court order.
13.17 NOTICE OF INDEMNIFICATION. THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS CERTAIN INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS PURSUANT TO SECTION 5.2.

THE COMPANY INTERESTS HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, NOR HAVE THEY BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY OTHER APPLICABLE STATE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE STATE OF DELAWARE. THE COMPANY INTERESTS MAY BE ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, SOLD OR TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND IN A TRANSACTION WHICH IS

EITHER EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACTS OR PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACTS.
(a) Compliance with Securities Laws. The Members acknowledge and confirm that their Member interests have not been registered under any federal or state securities laws by virtue of exemptions from the registration provisions thereof and consequently cannot be sold except pursuant to appropriate registration or exemption from registration as applicable. No Transfer of all or any part of a Member interest (except a Transfer upon the death, incapacity or bankruptcy of a Member to his personal representative and beneficiaries), including, without limitation, any Transfer of a right to distributions, profits and/or losses to a person who does not become a Member, may be made unless the Company is provided with an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Members (both as to the identity of the counsel and the substance of the opinion) to the effect that such offer or assignment (a) may be effected without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and (b) does not violate any applicable federal or state securities laws (including any investment suitability standards) applicable to the Company or the Members. Each of the Members hereby (1) represents and warrants that it is an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and that the investment made by such Member in the Company is for its own account for investment and (2) covenants that such Member shall not sell, transfer, hypothecate or assign its interest in the Company or transfer interests in such Member in contravention of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any applicable state securities laws.
14.2 Access to Information. Each of the Members represents to the Company that before determining to enter into this Agreement and to invest in the Company, each Member made an independent investigation into the Company and that it received whatever information it deemed necessary or relevant in order to decide whether to enter into this Agreement or invest in the Company. Each Member acknowledges that the financial materials provided to the Members are only estimates of expected future operations based on assumptions about future markets and there is no assurance that such projections will be realized.
14.3 Limitations of Fees. Reference is made to that certain Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Behringer Harvard Opportunity OP I, LP dated as of November 24, 2004 (together with all amendments thereto, the “BH Investor Agreement”) in respect of BH Investor. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if any fee paid by the Company to any general partner in BH Investor or any Affiliate of any such general partner (each a “BH Investor Manager Party”) results in BH Investor paying, through its interest in the Company, fees in excess of those fees permitted to be paid to such BH Investor Manager Party under the terms of the BH Investor Agreement or any other related agreement, then such BH Investor Manager Party shall reimburse directly to BH Investor its allocable share of such fee to the extent necessary to comply with the terms of the BH Investor Agreement. In the event that a BH Investor Manager Party receives from the Company a fee whose retention by such BH Investor Manager Party is, under the terms of the BH Investor Agreement or any other related agreement, contingent upon the happening of future events, such BH Investor Manager Party shall hold BH Investor’s allocable share of such fee until the applicable contingencies are resolved, and shall thereafter dispose of BH Investor’s allocable share of such fee in accordance with the BH Investor Agreement or any other related agreement. It is understood and agreed that the limitations and provisions set forth in this Section 14.4 are for the sole benefit of BH Investor, and, accordingly, no other party shall be entitled to a refund of fees paid by the Company under this Agreement or any other benefit set forth in this Section 14.4. Furthermore, it is understood and agreed that the limitations and other provisions set forth in this Section 14.4 shall not be applicable at such time as BH Investor no longer owns a direct or indirect interest in the Company.
32
14.4 Amendments to Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that legal counsel for BH Investor reasonably determines that an amendment to this Agreement is necessary or advisable in order for this Agreement to comply with applicable securities laws, the BH Investor Agreement, or NASAA Guidelines (as such term is defined in the BH Investor Agreement), then each Member shall, within ten (10) days after request from BH Investor, execute such an amendment; provided, however, that no such amendment may reduce a Member’s economic interest in the Company or increase a Member’s liabilities or obligations under this Agreement without such Member’s prior written consent.
14.5 Limitation on Liability of BH Investor. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, any liability of BH Investor arising under this Agreement or in respect of the Company shall be satisfied solely from the interest of BH Investor in the Company, and each Member and any other Person having the right to enforce such liability shall look solely to the interest of BH Investor in the Company for the satisfaction of such liability and shall have no claim or recourse against any other asset of BH Investor. In no event shall any of the partners, officers, directors, agents or advisors of BH Investor be held to any personal liability whatsoever or be liable for any of the obligations of BH Investor, nor shall the property of any such Persons be subject to the payment of any obligations of BH Investor arising under this Agreement or in respect of the Company.

Exhibit C
DILUTION EXAMPLE
For purposes of example, assume that the Capital Contributions made to the LLC total $2,000,000. BH Investor (owning a company percentage of 85%) has contributed $1,700,000 and CP Investor (owning a company percentage of 15%) has contributed $300,000. Assume that the BH Investor sends an Additional Capital Notice for $400,000 to the Members, and that in response thereto the CP Investor makes an Additional Capital Contribution of $60,000 and BH Investor fails to make its Additional Capital Contribution of $340,000. If CP Investor contributes said $340,000 as an Additional Capital Contribution (thus making the total Capital Contributions equal $2,400,000), then the following adjustments to the Company Percentages would be made:
(1) The Company Percentage of CP Investor would be increased by 21.25% (being 150% of 14.17%, which is $340,000 divided by $2,400,000, expressed as a percentage). The Company Percentage of CP Investor would thus be adjusted to 36.25%.
(2) The Company Percentage of BH Investor would be decreased by 21.25%, and thus would be adjusted to 63.75%.
(3) The increase in the Company Percentage of CP Investor and the decrease in the Company Percentage of BH Investor would remain applicable after any scheduled adjustment in the Company Percentage of such Members. For example, if it was originally contemplated that CP Investor and BH Investor would have their Company Percentages adjusted to 20% and 80%, respectively, at such time as the Members had received the return of their Capital Contributions, then, based upon the adjustments set forth in clauses (1) and (2) above, upon the return of such Capital Contributions the Company Percentage of CP Investor would be 41.25% and the Company Percentage of BH Investor would be 58.75%.
