pursuant to and in accordance with the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, 6
Del. C. Sections 18-101, et seq., as amended from time to time (the "Act"), and
hereby declares the following to be the Limited Liability Company Agreement of
such limited liability company:

by the filing of the Certificate of Formation of the Company with the Delaware
Secretary of State is [_____________________________].
2. Purpose and Powers. The purpose of the Company is to engage in
any activity for which limited liability companies may be organized in the State
of Delaware. The Company shall possess and may exercise all of the powers and
privileges granted by the Act or by any other law or by this Agreement, together
with any powers incidental thereto, so far as such powers and privileges are
necessary or convenient to the conduct, promotion or attainment of the business
purposes or activities of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement or the Act, the Company, and the Managing Member or any Officer
(as defined in Section 10), on behalf of the Company, may enter into and perform
the Management Services Agreement [list of other agreements to be entered into]
and any other documents or agreements to which the Company is a party or by
which it is bound, and all documents, agreements, certificates, instruments or
financing statements contemplated thereby or related thereto, and all amendments
thereto, all without further act, vote or approval of any Member, Officer or
other person or entity; provided, however, that the foregoing authorization
shall not be deemed a restriction on the powers of the Managing Member or any
Officer to enter into documents, agreements, certificates or instruments on
behalf of the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

registered office in the State of Delaware is Corporation Trust Center, 0000

8. Tax Matters. The Managing Member intends that, for so long as the

federal and all relevant state tax purposes and that the activities of the
Company be deemed to be activities of the Managing Member for such purposes. All
provisions of the Company's Certificate of Formation and this Agreement are to
be construed so as to preserve that tax status. The Managing Member is hereby
authorized to file any necessary elections with any tax authorities and shall be
required to file any necessary tax returns on behalf of the Company with any
such tax authorities.
9. Management of the Company. The business and affairs of the
Company shall be managed by the Managing Member, who shall have the power and
authority, on behalf of the Company, to take any action of any kind not
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement and to do anything and
everything it deems necessary or appropriate, itself or through its officers,
agents, representatives and affiliates, to carry on the business and purposes of
the Company, including, but not limited to, the following:
(a) to manage and direct the business affairs of the Company,
to do any and all acts on behalf of the Company and to exercise all rights of
the Company with respect to its interest in any other person, corporation,
partnership or other entity, including, without limitation, the voting of
securities, exercise of redemption rights, participation in arrangements with
creditors, the institution, defense and settlement or compromise of suits and
administrative proceedings and other like or similar matters;
(b) to acquire, own, lease, sublease, manage, hold, deal in,
control or dispose of any interests or rights in real or personal property;

(d) to open, maintain and close bank accounts and draw checks
or other orders for the payment of funds;
(e) to borrow money or obtain credit from banks, lending
institutions or any other person;
(f) to assume obligations, incur liabilities, lend money or
otherwise use the credit of the Company;
(g) to organize or to contact with one or more corporations or
other entities to hold record title, as nominee for the Company, to securities,
funds or other assets of the Company;
(h) to make and perform such other agreements and undertakings
as may be necessary or advisable to the carrying out of any of the foregoing
powers, objects or purposes;

equity or before any governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency,
body or commission; and

connection with or incidental to any of the foregoing or the Company's business.
There shall not be a "manager" (within the meaning of the Act) of
the Company. The Managing Member is, to the extent of its rights and powers set

transactions of the Company and shall see that adequate audits thereof are
currently and regularly made. The Treasurer shall have such other powers and
perform such other duties that generally are incident to the position of a
treasurer of a corporation organized under the DGCL or as may from time to time
be assigned to him or her by the Managing Member or the Chief Executive Officer.
Each of the Officers of the Company shall be an "authorized person" within the
meaning of the Act for purposes of executing, delivering and filing with the
Delaware Secretary of State the Company's Certificate of Formation and any
amendments thereto and restatements thereof.
(c) Unless otherwise provided in this Section 10, the Company shall
indemnify, save harmless, and pay all judgments and claims against the Managing
Member or any Officer relating to any liability or damage incurred by reason of
any act performed or omitted to be performed by the Managing Member or any
Officer in connection with the business of the Company, including reasonable
attorneys' fees incurred by the Managing Member or any Officer in connection

attorneys' fees may be paid as incurred. Unless otherwise provided in this
Section 10, in the event of any action by any Member against the Managing Member
or any Officer, including a derivative suit, the Company shall indemnify, save
harmless, and pay all expenses of the Managing Member or such Officer, including
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in the defense of such action.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, this Section shall be
enforced only to the maximum extent permitted by law and no Managing Member or
Officer shall be indemnified from any liability for the fraud, intentional

to the cause of action.

be wound up, upon the earliest to occur of (a) the unanimous decision of the
Members, or (b) an event of dissolution of the Company under the Act; provided,
however, that within ninety (90) days following any event terminating the
continued membership of the last remaining Member in the Company, if the

to continue the Company and to admit itself or some other person or entity as a

dissolution of the Company under Section 13 hereof, the Members shall be

for any reason whatsoever, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the
