Any Member, or any employee or affiliate thereof, also may be an employee, officer, or director of the Manager unless expressly specified to the contrary at the time of such act, all actions taken with respect to the Company by any of such persons while acting for the Manager shall be deemed to have been taken solely in their capacity as employees, officers, or directors of the Manager and not as Members.
2.2. Transfer of Interests. Other than with the prior, written consent of all then Members pursuant to Section 4, an assignee or other transferee of an interest in the Company (by operation of law or otherwise) shall not thereby become a Member of the Company nor thereby acquire any proprietary right in nor right to become a Member or to participate in the affairs or management of the Company. Without such prior, written consent, by any written
2
assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or other transfer (jointly and severally, a "Transfer") a Member may assign and transfer to and entitle the assignee or transferee to receive only (as and to the extent expressly so assigned or transferred) any share of the profits or losses or asset distributions of the Company that the assignor or transferor Member thereafter otherwise would have been or become entitled to hereunder, and nothing more. As to the Company, any such Transfer shall be effective only if in a writing executed by both the transferor and transferee in a form acceptable to the Company as evidenced by the Company's prior written acknowledgment thereof. Any attempted assignment or other transfer of a Member's rights in violation of this agreement shall be void.
2.3. Ceasing to be a Member. Upon any Member's death, expulsion, resignation, dissolution, incompetency, or bankruptcy, such person or entity shall cease to be a Member.

(b) Capital Accounts; Allocations. A separate capital account (singly, a "Capital Account"; collectively, the "Capital Accounts"), shall be established and maintained for each Member. As of any date, the amount of a Member's Capital Account shall be adjusted and any allocations of the Company's income, gain, loss, deductions, or credits (or items thereof) shall be determined and made as hereinafter provided and in accordance with the Company's records and, to the extent consistent herewith, applicable provisions of the Colorado Limited Liability Company Act as it may be amended or superseded from time to time (the "Act"): (i) Each Member's Capital Account (a) shall be increased by (i) the cash amount or agreed fair market value of all contributions hereafter made by such Member to the Company, (ii) any net income allocated (but not distributed) to such Member pursuant to this Section 3, and any items in the nature of income or gain that are specially allocated (but not distributed) to such Member, and (iii) the amount of any Company liabilities assumed by such Member or secured by any property of the Company distributed to such Member, and (b) shall be decreased by (i) the cash amount or agreed fair market value of all actual or deemed distributions of cash or property made to such Member pursuant to this agreement, (ii) any net loss allocated to such Member pursuant to this Section 3, and any items in the nature of expenses or losses that are specially allocated to such Member, and (iii) the amount of any liabilities of such Member assumed or secured by the Company. In determining the amount of any such liabilities, there shall be taken into account the provisions of Section 752(c), and any other applicable provisions, of the Internal Revenue Code as amended from time to time (the "Code") and any
3
applicable regulations (the "Regulations"; singly, a "Regulation") thereunder. (ii) In accordance with Regulation Section 1.704, at appropriate times, the Capital Accounts of all Members and the carrying values of all Company properties shall be adjusted upwards or downwards to reflect any unrealized gain or loss attributable to each Company property, as if such unrealized gain or loss had been recognized upon an actual sale of each such property at such time and had been allocated to the Members pursuant to this Section 3. Similarly, in accordance with such Regulation, immediately prior to the distribution in kind of any Company property to a Member (including pursuant to a liquidation of the Company) the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to reflect any unrealized gain or loss attributable to such property as if such unrealized gain or loss had been recognized upon an actual sale of such property at such time and had been allocated to the Members pursuant to this Section 3. Such unrealized gain or loss shall be determined using such methods of valuation as the Members in their sole discretion deem appropriate. (iii) For purposes of this agreement, net income, gross income and net loss shall be computed in the same manner as determined for federal income tax purposes, with the modifications set forth in Regulation ss. 1.704. (iv) Should any Member's adjusted capital account balance become negative as a result of any adjustment, allocation, or distribution, thereafter, acting as rapidly as is possible, from time to time such Member's share of the Company's income and gain, if any, shall be separately allocated to such Member's Capital Account until such time as such Member's Capital Account deficit is eliminated. (v) Non-recourse deductions shall be allocated in a manner that is reasonably consistent with other allocations of items of income, gain, or loss attributable to the property securing the non-recourse liabilities. In the first year in which the Company has non-recourse deductions or makes distributions attributable to an increase in minimum gain as defined in the Regulations, this agreement shall be deemed to include a "minimum gain chargeback" in accordance with the Regulations.

4.6. Indemnification and Advances. (a) As and to the full extent permitted by law and by Section 1705 of the Act, the Company intends to and shall, indemnify, defend and hold each Member (including by the use of such term for purposes of this Section, the Manager in its capacity as such and, if the Manager also is a Member, also separately in its capacity as a Member) harmless from and against, and may, with the approval of a majority vote of the Members, indemnify, defend, and hold the Company's and each such Member's respective affiliates, agents, employees, advisors, consultants, or independent contractors, (hereinafter, collectively, "Agents"; singly, an "Agent") harmless from and against, any loss, liability, damage, fine, judgment, penalty, attachment, cost, or expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from any demands, claims, or suits against each or any Member, the Manager, the Company, or any Agent, arising from or relating to the capacity, actions, or omissions of the Company, or of any Member, or of the Manager, or of an Agent, or arising from or relating to activities undertaken on behalf of the Company in the ordinary course of the Company's business, including, without limitation, any demands, claims, or lawsuits initiated by a Member, unless the acts or omissions of any Member, the Manager, the Company, or any Agent seeking indemnification are found by a court of competent jurisdiction upon entry of a final judgment to have been the result of bad faith, fraud, willful misconduct, or a knowing violation of the criminal law by the person or entity seeking indemnification, or to have violated any lesser standard of conduct that under applicable law affirmatively prevents indemnification hereunder. The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, plea of nolo contendere (or its equivalent), or conviction shall not, of itself, create a presumption that a Member, the Manager, the Company, or any Agent shall not be entitled to indemnification hereunder or that such Member, the Manager, or the Company, or such Agent did not act in good faith and in a manner that each reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. (b) Upon approval by a majority vote of
8
the Members, any person entitled to receive indemnity hereunder shall be entitled to receive advances from the Company to cover the costs (including all attorneys' and experts' fees) of defending any claim or action against them subject to indemnity hereunder; provided, however, that any such advances shall be repaid to the Company (with interest thereon at an annual rate equal to the prime rate in effect from time to time as reflected in The Wall Street Journal but not to exceed the maximum permitted by applicable law) if such recipient of an advance is found by a court of competent jurisdiction upon entry of a final judgment to have violated any of the standards set forth above in (a) as standards that preclude indemnification hereunder. All rights of indemnity hereunder shall survive dissolution of the Company or the death, resignation, expulsion, incompetency, dissolution, liquidation, or bankruptcy of any Member or any Agent, and shall inure to the benefit of their heirs, personal representatives, successors, and assigns. (c) If the indemnification provisions of this Section shall be deemed unenforceable to any extent by a court of competent jurisdiction, such unenforceable portion shall be modified or stricken so as to give effect to this Section to the fullest extent permitted by law. (d) The right of indemnification hereby provided for shall not be exclusive of or affect any other rights that a Member, the Manager, or any Agent otherwise may have. Nothing contained in this Section shall limit any lawful right to indemnification existing independently of this Section. (e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any amount of indemnity payable hereunder shall be payable only out of and to the extent of the Company's then assets, including any insurance proceeds then available to the Company for such purposes. No Member shall be liable for the payment of any indemnity amount payable hereunder, nor to make any capital contribution to the Company, nor to return any capital distribution made to it by the Company, nor to restore any negative capital account balance of that Member in order to enable the Company to make any payment under this Section.
4.7. Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved upon the earliest to occur of (i) the Members' unanimous written consent, (ii) entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under the Act, or (iii) the date set forth in the Articles of Organization. The death, expulsion, resignation, dissolution, incompetency, or bankruptcy of a Member or any other event that terminates the continued membership of a Member shall not cause dissolution of the Company, because the remaining Members hereby unanimously consent to continue the business of the Company upon the happening of such event. Upon any dissolution, the Company's business shall be wound up, its liabilities satisfied, and any balance, less reasonable reserves, shall be distributed to the Members in accordance with their positive capital accounts.

(d) Severability. Every provision of this
9
agreement is intended to be severable. If any term or provision hereof is determined to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, such illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability shall not affect the validity of the remaining terms or provisions of this agreement. (e) Successors. Subject to the limitations on transferability contained herein, each and all of the terms, provisions and agreements herein contained shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors heirs, and assigns (including an assignee of all or part of an interest in the Company) of the respective parties hereto.
