liability whatsoever in his capacity as a Member, whether to the Company, to any
of the other Members, to the creditors of the Company or to any other third
party, for the debts, liabilities, commitments or any other obligations of the
Company or for any losses of the Company, and therefore, a Member shall be
liable only to make the payments provided herein. In accordance with the Act and
the laws of the State of Delaware, a member of a limited liability company may,
under certain circumstances, be required to return amounts previously

----- ----------------
Units," "Class B Investor Units," "Preferred Units," "Class A Management Units,"
----- ---------------------- --------------- ------------------------
"Class B Management Units" and "Class R Management Units". The ownership by a

Class A Management Units, Class B Management Units and/or Class R Management
Units shall entitle such Member to allocations of Profits and Losses and other
items and distributions of cash and other property with respect to such Units as
set forth in Article V hereof. Ownership of a Unit by a Member shall entitle
---------
such Member to one (1) vote on any matter voted on by all Members as provided in
this Agreement and/or as required by applicable law. The Managing Member may
cause the Company to issue to a Member certificates representing the Units held
by such Member.
3.5 Issuance of Additional Units and Interests; Admission of New Members;
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional Capital Contributions.
--------------------------------
(a) Subject to obtaining the consent of the Required Interests and as
otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Managing Member shall have the right
to cause the Company to issue (i) additional Units or other interests in the
Company (including other classes or series thereof having different rights),
(ii) obligations, evidences of indebtedness or other securities or interests
convertible or exchangeable into Units or other interests in the Company and
(iii) warrants, options or other rights to purchase or otherwise acquire Units
or other interests in the Company; provided, however, that at any time following
-------- -------
the date hereof, the Company shall not issue Units to any Person unless such
Person shall have executed a joinder agreement in form satisfactory to the
Managing Member pursuant to which such Person agrees to be bound by the
provisions of this Agreement; provided further that no consent of the Required
-------- -------
Interests shall be required in connection with the issuance of the Management
Notes on July 23, 1999 or on August 31, 1999. The Managing Member shall
determine the terms and conditions governing the issuance of such additional
interests, including the number and designation of such additional interests,
the preference (with respect to distributions, in liquidation or otherwise) over
any other Units and any required contributions in connection therewith. Subject
to Section 3.5(b) below, a Person to which the Company issues Units or other
--------------
interests in the Company shall be admitted as a Member of the Company only with
the prior written consent of the Managing Member and if such Person has executed
and delivered a counterpart of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Managing Member shall have the right, without obtaining the consent of the
Required Interests or any Member, to cause the Company to issue additional
Investor Units in connection with the repurchase by the Company of any Units
held by any Member pursuant to an agreement with such Member on the same terms
with respect to such repurchased units. At least 10 days prior to the issuance
and sale of any additional Investor Units in connection with any such
repurchase, the Company shall give written notice of such issuance to the
Investors (other than any Investor whose Units are being repurchased) and, to
the extent permitted under applicable securities laws without material
expenditure by the Company, each such Investor shall be entitled to purchase in
connection with such issuance a number of additional Investor Units equal to
such Investor's pro rata share
-10-
(based upon the number of Investor Units held by such Investor and the number
of Investor Units held by all Investors other than any Investor whose Units are
being repurchased) of such additional Investor Units. Any Investor Units which
remain unpurchased after such offer to such Investors, shall be reoffered to
such Investors on a pro rata basis until all of such Investor Units shall have
been purchased. Each such Investor may elect to purchase additional Investor
Units by delivering written notice of such election to the Company together with
the purchase price therefor (in the form specified in the Company's notice)
within 10 days after receipt of the Company notice. Each purchasing Investor
shall be entitled to purchase such additional Investor Units at the same price
and on the same terms as such Investor Units are offered by the Company to the
other Investors.
(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Xxxxx Xxxxx shall have
the right in his sole discretion, without obtaining the consent of the Required
Interests or any Member, to (i) cause the Company to issue those certain Class A
Management Units contained in the Pool as of the date hereof or hereafter added
to the Pool pursuant to Section 3.9, or (ii) cause the Company to issue any
-----------
Class B Management Units, or allocate any unallocated Class B Management Units
from the Pool, in an amount not to exceed an aggregate issued and outstanding
number equal to 500 Class B Management Units, in each case to employees of any
Subsidiary of the Company (including, without limitation, employees of CTN but
excluding Xxxxx Xxxxx); provided, however, that prior to any such issuance,
Xxxxx Xxxxx shall require such employees to enter into agreements providing for
the repurchase of such Management Units upon termination of employment and shall
obtain the consent of the Managing Member solely with respect to adequacy of any
repurchase rights in favor of the Company regarding such Class A Management
Units or Class B Management Units; and provided further that the Company shall
not issue Class A Management Units or Class B Management Units, or allocate any
unallocated Class A Management Units or Class B Management Units from the Pool,
to any Person unless such Person shall have executed a joinder agreement in form
satisfactory to the Managing Member pursuant to which such Person agrees to be
bound by the provisions of this Agreement, which such form has already been
approved by the Managing Member. In the event Xxxxx Xxxxx ceases to be an
employee of any Subsidiary of the Company (including, without limitation, CTN)
or ceases to be a Member, the Managing Member shall have the right to issue any
additional Class A Management Units or Class B Management Units, or allocate any
unallocated Class A Management Units or Class B Management Units from the Pool.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3.5(a) above, each
--------------
Investor shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions to the
Company from time to time with respect to the Investor Units held by such
Investor when and as called by the Managing Member upon ten days prior written
notice solely to fund the exercise by the Company of the Warrants or the
exercise by the Company of the purchase rights granted pursuant to the Equity
Protection Agreements. The amount of any such additional Capital Contribution
by such Investor shall be limited to such Investor's pro rata share (based upon
the number of outstanding Investor Units held by such Investor and the number of
outstanding Investor Units held by all Investors) of the aggregate Capital
Contribution being made by all Investors pursuant to such capital call by the
Managing Member. No additional Investor Units will be issued in connection with
any such additional Capital Contribution, unless otherwise decided by the
Managing Member.
3.6 Representations, Warranties and Agreements of the Members. Each
---------------------------------------------------------
Member hereby represents and warrants (severally as to itself only) that:
-11-
(a) The Units have been purchased by such Member and not by any other
Person, with the Member's own funds or by issuance of Management Notes and not
with the funds of any other Person other than pursuant to the issuance of
Management Notes, and for the account of such Member, not as a nominee or agent
and not for the account of any other Person. Such Member has purchased the Units
for investment for an indefinite period, not with a view to the sale or
distribution of any part of all thereof by public or private sale or other
disposition.
(b) Such Member has been advised that the Units have not been registered
under the Securities Act or registered or qualified under any other securities
law, on the ground, among others, that no distribution or public offering of the
Units is to be effected and the Units will be issued by the Company in
connection with a transaction that does not involve any public offering within
the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, or the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission and under comparable exemptive
provisions of the securities laws, rules and regulations of other jurisdictions.
Such Member understands that the Company is relying in part on the Member's
representations as set forth herein for purposes of claiming such exemptions and
that the basis for such exemptions may not be present if, notwithstanding such
Member's representations, such Member has in mind merely acquiring Units for
resale on the occurrence or non-occurrence of some predetermined event. Such
Member has no such intention.
(c) Such Member has such knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters that such Member is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an
investment in Units and has the capacity to protect such Member's own interests
in connection with such Member's proposed investment in Units.
(d) Such Member acknowledges that such Member has been furnished with such
financial and other information concerning the Company as such Member considers
necessary in connection with such Member's investment in Units. Such Member has
carefully reviewed such information and is thoroughly familiar with the proposed
business, operations, properties and financial condition of the Company and has
discussed with representatives of the Company any questions the Purchase may
have had with respect thereto. Such Member understands: (i) the risks involved
in this offering, including the speculative nature of the investment; (ii) the
financial hazards involved in this offering, including the risk of losing such
Member's entire investment; (iii) the lack of liquidity and restrictions on
transfers of Units; and (iv) the tax consequences of this investment. Such
Member has consulted with such Member's own legal, accounting, tax, investment
and other advisers with respect to the tax treatment of an investment by such
Member in Units and the merits and risks of an investment in Units. Such Member
is an "accredited investor" as defined under the Securities Act or has provided
written notice to the Company that such Member is not an "accredited investor"
prior to purchasing any Units or other interest in the Company.
(e) The execution, delivery and performance by such Member of this
Agreement have been duly authorized by such Member. This Agreement constitutes
a valid and binding obligation of such Member, enforceable in accordance with
its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws
affecting creditors' rights and subject, as to enforceability, to general
principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a
proceeding in equity or at law).
-12-
(f) Such Member understands that the Units will be "restricted securities"
as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and, accordingly,
that the Units must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered
under the Securities Act and qualified under any other applicable securities law
or exemptions from such registration and qualification are available. Such
Member understands that the Company is under no obligation to register or
qualify Units under the Securities Act, or any other securities law.
(g) Such Member is a resident of the jurisdiction set forth in such
Member's address on Schedule A.
----------
3.7 Capital Contributions. Each Member has made the Capital Contributions
---------------------
to the Company in cash or assets in the amount set forth opposite such Member's
name on Schedule A hereto. Upon receipt of such Capital Contribution set forth
----------
opposite such Member's name on Schedule A, such Member shall be deemed to own
----------
the number of Units set forth opposite such Member's name on Schedule A.
----------
3.8 Defaulting Members. If any Member (a "Defaulting Member") fails to
------------------ -----------------
make full payment of any portion of any additional Capital Contribution called
by the Managing Member pursuant to Section 3.5(c), the Managing Member may
--------------
undertake any one or more of the following steps:
(a) The Managing Member may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies the
Company may have against such Defaulting Member, including a lawsuit to collect
the overdue amount, with interest calculated thereon at a rate equal to 12%.
(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, from and after any
date on which a Defaulting Member's fails to make any additional Capital
Contribution pursuant to Section 3.5(c), if such Defaulting Member continues to
--------------
hold Units, such Defaulting Member shall have no right to receive any
distributions from the Company until such time as the amount of distributions
that would have been made to the Defaulting Member shall have been reduced by an
amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to 18% per annum, compounded
annually, of the unpaid additional Capital Contribution and (B) an amount equal
to the unpaid Capital Contribution, and such reduced amount shall have been
distributed to the Investors other than the Defaulting Member pursuant to
Section 5.2(a) and Section 5.3(a).
-------------- --------------
3.9 Repurchased Units. Any Units issued pursuant to this Agreement which
-----------------
are subsequently held by the Company as a result of any repurchase of such Units
by the Company or otherwise, shall not be considered outstanding Units for any
purpose hereunder, including any Class A Management Units and Class B Management
Units allocated to the Pool. Any Management Units repurchased by the Company
shall be reallocated to the Pool; provided that any Management Units repurchased
--------
by the Company may only be subsequently reissued for a purchase price equal to
or greater than the consideration received in connection with such repurchase.

pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m).

--- ---
Investor Yield have each been reduced to zero, any amounts not distributed with
respect to the Class A Management Units pursuant to the first sentence of this
Section 5.4 shall (prior to any other distributions under Section 5.2 or 5.3
----------- ----------- ---
hereof) be distributed to the holders of Class A Management Units, pro rata
according to their ownership of the outstanding Class A Management Units. If
any amounts required to be distributed with respect to the Class A Management
Units pursuant to the preceding sentence had previously been distributed to
WSPI, WSPII or Dutch pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 5.4, WSPI,
-----------
WSPII or Dutch (as applicable) shall contribute such amount to the Company
(which contributions shall be deemed to be Capital Contributions hereunder).
(b) No distribution shall be made with respect to any Class B Management
Unit until the Class A Investor IRR equals or exceeds 30% for all holders of
Class A Investor Units and the Class B Investor IRR equals or exceeds 30% for
all holders of Class B Investor Units. Any distribution to which holders of
Class B Management Units would be entitled pursuant to the terms of Section 5.2
-----------
or 5.3 (as applicable) without regard to this Section 5.4 that is not
--- -----------
distributed by reason of application of the first sentence of this Section 5.4
-----------
shall be held by the Company or, if requested by WSPI, WSPII or Dutch, shall be
distributed to (i) the Investors until the Unpaid Class A Yield and the Unpaid
Class B Yield have each been reduced to zero for all holders of Class A Investor
Units and Class B Investor Units and (ii) thereafter in accordance with Sections
--------
5.2(d) and (e) and Sections 5.3(c) and (d) hereof. If, as a result of any
------ --- --------------- ---
distribution pursuant to Section 5.2 or 5.3 hereof, the Class A Investor IRR
----------- ---
equals or exceeds 30% for all holders of Class A Investor Units and the Class B
Investor IRR equals or exceeds 30% for all holders of Class B Investor Units,
any amounts not distributed with respect to the Class B Management Units

-----------
distributions under Section 5.2 or 5.3 hereof) be distributed to the holders of

Class B Management Units, pro rata according to their ownership of the

--------------
to such person's appropriate share of the amount required to be distributed to
holders of Class B Management Units pursuant to the immediately preceding
sentence.
5.5 Allocation of Profits and Losses.
--------------------------------
(a) Except as set forth in Section 5.5(b) hereof, for each Fiscal Year of
--------------
the Company, all Profits and Losses shall be allocated to the Members' Capital
Accounts in a manner such that, as of the end of such Fiscal Year, the Capital
Account of each Member (which may be either a positive or negative balance)
shall be equal to (a) the amount which would be distributed to such Member,
determined as if the Company were to liquidate all of its assets for the Book
Value thereof and distribute the proceeds thereof pursuant to Section 12.2
------------
hereof, minus (b) the sum of (i) such Member's share of partnership minimum gain
-----
(as determined according to Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(d) and (g)(3))
and partner minimum gain (as determined according to Treasury Regulation Section
1.704-2(i)) and (ii) the amount,
-18-
if any, which such Member is obligated to contribute to the capital of the
Company as of the last day of such Fiscal Year.
(b) If any Unitholder that unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation
or distribution described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-
1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6) has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as of the
end of any Taxable Year, then Profits for such Taxable Year shall be allocated
to such Unitholder in proportion to, and to the extent of, such Adjusted Capital
Account Deficit. This Section 5.3(b) is intended to be a qualified income
--------------
offset provision as described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-
1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.
5.6 Capital Contributions.
---------------------
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 5.2 and
----------------
5.3, the Members acknowledge that the Management Holders paid a portion of their
---
Capital Contributions by the delivery of promissory notes to the Company, which
notes outstanding as of the date hereof are listed on Schedule A (as amended and
restated from time to time, the "Management Notes") and that all principal and
----------------
accrued interest with respect to the Management Notes which is paid to the
Company by such Management Holders shall be distributed solely to the holders of
the Preferred Units. Each of the Management Holders acknowledges and agrees
that until such time as all principal and accrued interest with respect to the
Management Note of such Management Holder is paid in full, such Management
Holder shall have no right to receive any distributions from the Company and all
distributions which would have been paid by the Company to such Management
Holder shall be retained by the Company as payment with respect to the
Management Note of such Management Holder and distributed in accordance with the
immediately preceding sentence until such Management Notes and all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon is paid in full.
(b) Of the aggregate Capital Contributions made by WSPI, an amount equal
to the aggregate principal amount of all Management Notes issued with respect to
the Round One Investment shall be treated as contributed with respect to
Preferred Units, and the remainder shall be treated as contributed with respect
to Class A Investor Units. Of the aggregate Capital Contributions made by WSPII
or Dutch, an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all Management
Notes issued with respect to the Round Two Investment shall be treated as
contributed with respect to Preferred Units, and the remainder shall be treated
as contributed with respect to Class B Investor Units. The Company and the
Members acknowledge and agree that the principal amount of any Management Note
shall be treated as a Capital Contribution and included in the Capital Account
of the Member issuing such Management Note as of the original date of issuance
of such Management Note, or as of the date of assumption of such Management
Note, and that any assumption of the obligation to repay any such Management
Note shall be treated as an assumption of the rights and obligations associated
with such related Capital Contribution.
5.7 Tax Allocations; Code Section 704(c).
------------------------------------
(a) The income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses of the Company shall
be allocated, for federal, state and local income tax purposes, among the
Members in accordance with the allocation of such income, gains, losses,
deductions and expenses among the Members for computing their Capital Accounts,
except that if any such allocation is not permitted by the Code or other
-----------
applicable law,
-19-
the Company's subsequent income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses shall be
allocated among the Members so as to reflect as nearly as possible the
allocation set forth herein in computing their Capital Accounts.
(b) In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations
thereunder, income, gain, loss, deduction and expense with respect to any
property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax
purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation
between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income
tax purposes and its fair market value at the time of contribution.
(c) If the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to Section
-------
4.2, subsequent allocations of items of taxable income, gain, loss, deduction
---
and expense with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation
between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its
Book Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c).
(d) Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be
made by the Members in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and
intent of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.7 are solely
-----------
for purposes of federal, state and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any
way be taken into account in computing, any Member's Capital Account or share of
profits, losses, other items or distributions pursuant to any provisions of this
Agreement.
(e) The Company and the Members agree to use the "traditional method" with
respect to Section 704(c) of the Code.

-----------
any duty to the Company or to any Member of the Company except as expressly set
forth herein. No Member (including the Managing Member) shall be liable to any

any Member unless such loss or damage is caused by such Member's gross
negligence, willful misconduct, intentional violation of law or material breach
of this Agreement. No Member (including the Managing Member) shall be liable for
errors in judgment or for any acts or omissions that do not constitute gross
negligence, willful misconduct, intentional violation of law or material breach
of this Agreement. Any Member (including the Managing Member) may consult with
counsel and accountants in respect of Company affairs, and provided such Member
acts in good faith reliance upon the advice or opinion of such counsel or
accountants, such Member shall not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by
the Company or any Member in reliance thereon. The preceding sentence shall in
no way limit any Person's right to rely on information to the extent provided in
Section 18-406 of the Act.
8.2 Right to Indemnification. Subject to the limitations and conditions
------------------------
as provided in this Article VIII, each Person who was or is made a party or is
------------
threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative,
arbitrative (hereinafter a "Proceeding"), or any appeal in such a Proceeding or
----------
any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such a Proceeding, by reason of
the fact that such Person, or a Person of whom such Person is the legal
representative, is or was a Member of the Company or while a Member of the
Company is or was serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director,
officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar
functionary of another foreign or domestic limited liability company,
corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee
benefit plan or other enterprise, shall be indemnified by the Company (to the
extent of the Company's assets and without requiring any additional Capital
Contributions not otherwise required by this Agreement) to the fullest extent
permitted under applicable law, as the same exist or may hereafter be amended
(but, in the
-23-
case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment
permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than said law
permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment) against judgments,
penalties (including excise and similar taxes and punitive damages), fines,
settlements and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees) actually incurred by such Person in connection with such
Proceeding; provided that (a) such Person's course of conduct was pursued in
--------------
good faith and believed by such Person to be in the best interests of the
Company and (b) such course of conduct did not constitute gross negligence or
willful misconduct on the part of such Person and otherwise was in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. Indemnification under this Article VIII shall
------------
continue as to a Person who has ceased to serve in the capacity which initially
entitled such Person to indemnity hereunder. The rights granted pursuant to
this Article VIII shall be deemed contractual rights, and no amendment,
------------
modification or repeal of this Article VIII shall have the effect of limiting or
------------
denying any such rights with respect to actions taken or Proceedings arising
prior to any amendment, modification or repeal. It is expressly acknowledged
that the indemnification provided in this Article VIII could involve
------------
indemnification for negligence or under theories of strict liability.
8.3 Advance Payment. The right to indemnification conferred in this
---------------
Article VIII shall include the right to be paid or reimbursed by the Company the
------------
reasonable expenses incurred by a Person of the type entitled to be indemnified
under Section 8.2 who was, is or is threatened to be made a named defendant or
-----------
respondent in a Proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding
and without any determination as to the Person's ultimate entitlement to
indemnification; provided, however, that the payment of such expenses incurred
by any such Person in advance of the final disposition of a Proceeding shall be
made only upon delivery to the Company of a written affirmation by such Person
of his or her good faith belief that he has met the standard of conduct
necessary for indemnification under Article VIII and a written undertaking, by
------------
or on behalf of such Person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall
ultimately be determined that such indemnified Person is not entitled to be
indemnified under this Article VIII or otherwise.
------------
8.4 Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Company shall indemnify
---------------------------------------
and advance expenses to any officer, director, partner, employee, agent of the
Managing Member or of any other Member or the Company to the same extent and
subject to the same conditions that it may indemnify and advance expenses to the
Members including the Managing Member under this Article VIII.
------------
8.5 Appearance as a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
-----------------------
Article VIII, the Company may pay or reimburse reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
------------
incurred by any Member including the Managing Member or such Managing Member's
officers, directors, employees, partners and agents in connection with such
Person's appearance as a witness or other participation in a Proceeding related
to or arising out of the business of the Company at a time when such Person is
not a named defendant or respondent in the Proceeding.
8.6 Nonexclusivity of Rights. The right to indemnification and the
------------------------
advancement and payment of expenses conferred in this Article VIII shall not be
------------
exclusive of any other right which a Person indemnified pursuant to this Article
-------
VIII may have or hereafter acquire under any law (common or statutory), any
----
agreement, any provision of the Certificate or this Agreement, any vote of
Members or otherwise.
-24-
8.7 Savings Clause. If this Article VIII or any portion hereof shall be
-------------- ------------
invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the
Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each Person indemnified
pursuant to this Article VIII as to costs, charges and expenses (including
------------
attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect
to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this
Article VIII that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent

permitted by applicable law.
ARTICLE IX

ARTICLE XI
TRANSFERS
---------
11.1 Assignment by Members. Subject to Section 3.5(b) regarding the rights
--------------------- --------------
of Xxxxx to allocate Units contained in the Pool, no Management Holder shall
transfer any Management Units of
-25-
the Company, or offer to Transfer all or any part of such Management Holder's
Management Units of the Company (whether voluntarily or involuntarily) without
the consent of the Managing Member, which consent may be withheld in the
Managing Member's sole discretion, except for a transfer of Management Units to
the Company to be allocated to the Pool. Each transferee of Units or other
interest in the Company shall as a condition prior to such Transfer execute a
joinder agreement in a form satisfactory to the Managing Member pursuant to
which such transferee shall agree to be bound by the provisions of this
Agreement (it being understood that any such Transfer shall have the effect of
Transferring an economic interest in such Units and shall not have the effect of
Transferring any other rights of a Member unless such Transferee is admitted as
a substitute Member pursuant to Section 11.3). Any Transfer by a Member of any
------------
part of Units to a Person who is not a Member shall not relieve such Member of
any of its obligations with respect to such Units.
11.2 Void Transfers. Any Transfer by any Member of any Units or other
--------------
interest in the Company (a) in contravention of this Agreement (including,
without limitation, the failure of the transferee to execute a counterpart in
accordance with Section 11.1), or (b) which would cause the Company to not be
treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, shall be void and
ineffectual and shall not bind or be recognized by the Company or any other
party. No purported assignee pursuant to a void transfer shall have any right to
any profits, losses or distributions of the Company.
11.3 Substituted Member.
------------------
(a) An assignee of any Units or other interest in the Company held by a
Member, or any portion thereof, shall become a substituted Member entitled to
all the rights of a Member if and only if the assignor gives the assignee such
right, and prior written consent to such assignment and substitution has been
obtained from the Managing Member, which consent may be withheld in such
Managing Member's sole discretion.
(b) The Company and the Members shall be entitled to treat the record owner
of any Units or other interest in the Company as the absolute owner thereof and
shall incur no liability for distributions of cash or other property made in
good faith to such owner until such time as a written assignment of such Units
or other interest in the Company, which assignment is permitted pursuant to the
terms and conditions of Section 11.1 and Section 11.3 hereof, has been received
------------ ------------
and accepted by the Managing Member and recorded on the books of the Company.
(c) Upon the admission of a substituted Member, Schedule A attached hereto
----------
shall be amended to reflect the name, address and Units of such substituted
Member and to eliminate the name and address of and other information relating
to the assigning Member with regard to the assigned Units.
-26-
11.4 Effect of Assignment.
--------------------
(a) Any Member who shall make a permitted assignment under this Agreement
of any Units or other interest in the Company shall cease to be a Member of the
Company with respect to such Units or other interest and shall no longer have
any rights or privileges of a Member with respect to such Units or other
interest, except that unless and until the assignee of such Member is admitted
as a substituted Member in accordance with the provisions of this Article XI,
----------
such assigning Member shall retain the statutory rights and obligations of an
assignor member under applicable law, including, but not by way of limitation,
the right to vote.
(b) Any Person who acquires in any manner whatsoever any Units or other
interest in the Company, irrespective of whether such Person has accepted and
adopted in writing the terms and provisions of this Agreement, shall be deemed
by the acceptance of the benefits of the acquisition thereof to have agreed to
be subject to and bound by of all the terms and conditions of this Agreement
that any predecessor in such Units or other interest in the Company of such
Person was subject to or by which such predecessor was bound. With respect to a
permitted assignment, the Company shall use the "closing of the books method"
for all allocation purposes.
(c) Following an assignment of any Units or other interest that is
permitted under this Agreement, the transferee of such Units or interest shall
be treated as having made all of the Capital Contributions in respect of, and
received all of the distributions received in respect of, such Units or
interest, shall succeed to the Capital Account associated with such Units or
interest and shall receive allocations and distributions under Articles V and
----------
XII in respect of such Units or interest as if such transferee were a Member.
---
11.5 Permitted Transfers. Subject in all events to the general
-------------------
restrictions on Transfers contained in Sections 11.1, 11.2 and 11.3, the
------------- ---- ----
restrictions contained in the first sentence of Section 11.1 shall not apply to
------------
any Transfer of Units by any Unitholder among such Unitholder's Permitted
Transferees so long as such Permitted Transferee shall agree in writing to be
bound by the provisions of this Agreement prior to any such Transfer.
11.6 Deliveries for Transfer.
-----------------------
(a) In connection with the Transfer of any Restricted Securities, the
holder thereof will deliver written notice to the Company describing in
reasonable detail the Transfer or proposed Transfer. In addition, in the case
of any Certificated Units (as defined below), if the holder of such Restricted
Securities delivers to the Company an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the
Company that no subsequent Transfer of such Restricted Securities will require
registration under the Securities Act, the Company will promptly upon such
contemplated Transfer deliver new certificates or instruments, as the case may
be, for such Restricted Securities which do not bear the restrictive legend
relating to the Securities Act as set forth below. If the Company is not
required to deliver new certificates or instruments, as the case may be, for
such Restricted Securities not bearing such legend, the holder thereof will not
Transfer the same until the prospective transferee has confirmed to the Company
in writing its agreement to be bound by the conditions contained in this Section
-------
11.6.
----
(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article XI, no Transfer of
----------
Units or any other interest in the Company may be made unless in the opinion of
counsel (who may be counsel for the
-27-
Company), satisfactory in form and substance to the Managing Member and counsel
for the Company (which opinion may be waived, in whole or in part, at the
discretion of the Managing Member), such Transfer would not violate any federal
securities laws or any state or provincial securities or "blue sky" laws
(including any investor suitability standards) applicable to the Company or the
interest to be transferred, or cause the Company to be required to register as
an Investment Company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Such
opinion of counsel shall be delivered in writing to the Company prior to the
date of the Transfer.
11.7 Prospective Transferees. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the
-----------------------
Company agrees to cooperate, as may reasonably be requested, in order to provide
any information and access to any information to any prospective transferee in
connection with a proposed Transfer.

ARTICLE XII
DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION
----------------------------------------
12.1 Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs shall be
-----------
wound up on the first to occur of the following:
(a) the expiration of its term pursuant to Section 2.5;
-----------
(b) prior to April 25, 2002, the written consent of the Required Interests
to dissolve the Company;
(c) after April 25, 2002, the written determination of the Managing Member
(in its self-discretion) to dissolve the Company;
(d) upon the determination of the Managing Member in the event of a sale of
all or substantially all the Company's assets or in the event the Company no

(e) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under
Section 18-802 of the Act.
The death, retirement, resignation, expulsion, incapacity, bankruptcy or
dissolution of a Member, or the occurrence of any other event that terminates
the continued membership of a Member in the Company,
-28-
shall not cause a dissolution of the Company, and the Company shall continue in
existence subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
12.2 Liquidation and Termination. On dissolution of the Company, the
---------------------------
Managing Member shall act as liquidator or may appoint one or more Members as
liquidator. The liquidator(s) shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of
the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The
costs of liquidation shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final
distribution, the liquidator(s) shall continue to operate the Company properties
with all of the power and authority of the Managing Member and the Members. The
steps to be accomplished by the liquidators are as follows:
(a) as promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final
liquidation, the liquidator(s) shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a
recognized firm of certified public accountants of the Company's assets,
liabilities and operations through the last day of the calendar month in which
the dissolution occurs or the final liquidation is completed, as applicable;
(b) the liquidator(s) shall cause the notice described in the Act to be
mailed to each known creditor of and claimant against the Company in the manner
described thereunder;
(c) the liquidator(s) shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Company funds
all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company (including, without
limitation, all expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise make adequate
provision for payment and discharge thereof (including, without limitation, the
establishment of a cash fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for
such term as the liquidator(s) may reasonably determine); and
(d) the remaining assets of the Company (the "Remaining Assets") shall be
----------------
distributed to the Members in accordance with Sections 5.2 through 5.4 and 5.6
--------------------------------
hereof. The Remaining Assets shall be distributed by the end of the taxable
year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Company occurs (or, if
later, 90 days after the date of the liquidation).
All distributions in kind to the Members shall be made subject to the liability
of each distributee for costs, expenses and liabilities theretofore incurred or
for which the Company has committed prior to the date of termination, and those
costs, expenses and liabilities shall reduce the amount to be distributed to the
distributees in accordance with Sections 5.2 through 5.4 and 5.6 pursuant to
------------------------ ---
this Section 12.2. The distribution of cash and/or property to a Member in
------------
accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.2 constitutes a complete
------------
return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to
the Member of its interest in the Company and all the Company's property and
constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented within the meaning
of the Act. To the extent that a Member returns funds to the Company, it has no
claim against any other Member for those funds. Any Company assets distributed
in kind will first be written up or down to their fair market value, thus
creating Profits or Losses (if any), which shall be allocated in accordance with
Section 5.5.

13.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of
----------------
the Members and their Affiliates relating to the Company and supersedes all

written.
13.3 Effect of Waiver or Consent. A waiver or consent, express or
---------------------------
implied, to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that

same or any other obligations of that Person with respect to the Company.
Failure on the part of a Person to complain of any act of any Person or to
declare any Person in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how
long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Person of its

period has run.

---------------------------------
provided herein, this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived from time to

that the Managing Member may amend and modify the provisions of this Agreement
and Schedule A hereto to the extent necessary to reflect the issuance of new

Units or other interests in the Company as contemplated by Section 3.5 as
-----------
determined in good faith by the Managing Member.
