In addition to any power of the Board granted under this Agreement, the Board shall, to the extent permitted by the Act, have all of the powers and authority equivalent to those afforded to a board of directors of a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Without prejudice to such general powers, but subject to the same provisions and limitations, it is hereby expressly declared that the Board shall have the following powers, to wit:

3

First—To select and remove all the officers, agents and employees of the Company, prescribe such powers and duties for them as may not be inconsistent with law, with the Certificate or this Agreement, fix their compensation and require from them security for faithful service.

Fourth—To authorize the issuance of membership interests in the Company from time to time upon such terms as may be lawful.

Fifth—To borrow money and incur indebtedness for the purposes of the Company, and to cause to be executed and delivered therefore, in the corporate name, promissory notes, bonds, debentures, deeds of trust, mortgages, pledges, hypothecations or other evidences of debt and securities therefore.

Sixth—By resolution adopted by a majority of the authorized number of Managers, to designate an executive and other committees, each consisting of one (1) or more Managers, to serve at the pleasure of the Board and to prescribe the manner in which proceedings of such committee shall be conducted. Unless the Board shall otherwise prescribe the manner of proceedings of any such committee, meetings of such committees may be regularly scheduled in advance and may be called at any time by any one (1) member thereof; otherwise, the provisions of this Agreement with respect to notice and conduct of meetings of the Board shall govern. Any such committee, to the extent provided in a resolution of the Board, shall have all of the authority of the Board, except with respect to:

A. the approval of the Managers and the Members for any action for which such approval is required under the Certificate or the Act, and actions for which approval by stockholders of corporations would be required under the Act;

B. the filling of vacancies on the Board or in any committee;

C. the fixing of compensation of the Managers for serving on the Board or in any committee;

4

D. the adoption, amendment or repeal of this Agreement;

F. the appointment of other committees of the Board or the members thereof.

4.2 Number and Qualification of Managers. The number of Managers shall not be less than one (1) nor more than ten (10), as may be determined from time to time by resolution of the Board. The Board shall initially have two (2) Managers: Xxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxx. Each of the forgoing persons will be a Manager until such time they are removed or replaced by the Members or until they resign. A majority of the number so determined by the Board shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, and the act of a majority of the Managers present at a meeting in the presence of a quorum shall constitute the act of the Board, except as otherwise provided by law or the Certificate or this Agreement. If less than a quorum shall be in attendance at the time for which said meeting shall have been called, those present may, by majority vote, adjourn the said meeting to another date certain. Managers need not be Members.

4.3 Election and Term of Office. The Managers shall be elected at each annual meeting of Members but, if any such annual meeting is not held or the Managers are not elected thereat, the Managers may be elected at any special meeting of Members held for that purpose.

All Managers shall hold office until their respective successors are elected, subject to the provisions of this Agreement and applicable law with respect to vacancies on the Board.

4.4 Vacancies. A vacancy in the Board shall be deemed to exist in case of the death, resignation or removal of any Manager, if a Manager has been declared of unsound mind by order of court or convicted of a felony, if the authorized number of Managers be increased, or if the Members fail, at any annual or special meeting of Members at which any Manager or Managers are elected, to elect the full authorized number of Managers to be voted for at that meeting.

Vacancies in the Board, except for a vacancy created by the removal of a Manager, may be filled by a majority of the remaining Managers, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining Manager, and each Manager so elected shall hold office until his successor is elected at an annual or a special meeting of the Members. A vacancy in the Board created by the removal of a Manager may only be filled by the vote of Members holding a majority of the membership interests entitled to vote represented at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is present, or by the written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding interests.

5

The Members may elect a Manager or Managers at any time to fill any vacancy or vacancies not filled by the Managers. Any such election by written consent shall require the consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding interests entitled to vote.

Any Manager may resign effective upon giving written notice to the Company, unless the notice specifies a later time for the effectiveness of such resignation. If the Board accepts the resignation of a Manager tendered to take effect at a future time, the Board or the Members shall have the power to elect a successor to take office when the resignation is to become effective.

No reduction of the authorized number of Managers shall have the effect of removing any Manager prior to the expiration of his term of office.

4.5 Place of Meetings and Meetings by Telephone. Regular meetings of the Board shall be held at any place within or without the State of Delaware which has been designated from time to time by resolution of the Board or by written consent of all members of the Board in the absence of such designation regular meetings shall be held at the principal executive office of the Company. Special meetings of the Board may be held either at a place so designated or at the principal executive offices. Any meeting, regular or special, may be held by conference telephone or similar communication equipment, so long as all Managers participating in the meeting can hear one another and all such Managers shall be deemed to be present at the meeting.

4.6 Annual Meeting. Immediately following each annual meeting of Members, if any, the Board shall hold a regular meeting at the place of said annual meeting or at such other place as shall be fixed by the Board, for the purpose of organization, election of officers, and the transaction of other business. Call and notice of such meetings are hereby dispensed with.

4.8 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board for any purpose or purposes shall be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board, the CEO, the CFO, the Secretary or by any Manager. Written notice of the time and place of special meetings shall be delivered personally to each Manager or communicated to each Manager by telephone, or by telegraph or mail charges prepaid, addressed to such Manager at his or her address as it is shown upon the records of the Company or, if it is not so shown on such records or is not readily ascertainable, at the place at which the meetings of the Managers are regularly held. In case such notice is mailed or telegraphed, it shall be deposited in the United States mail or delivered to the telegraph company in the place in which the principal executive office of the Company is located at least four (4) days prior

6

to the time of the holding of the meeting. In case such notice is delivered personally or by telephone, as above provided, it shall be so delivered at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to the time of the holding of the meeting. Such mailing, telegraphing or delivery personally or by telephone, as above provided, shall be due, legal and personal notice to such Manager. Any notice shall state the date, place and hour of the meeting and the general nature of the business to be transacted, and no other business may be transacted at the meeting.

4.9 Action Without Meeting. Any action by the Board may be taken without a meeting if a majority of all the Managers shall individually or collectively consent in writing to such action. Such written consent or consents shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Board and shall have the same force and effect as a majority vote of such Managers at a meeting duly held under Section 4.10 below.

4.10 Action at a Meeting; Quorum and Required Vote. Presence of a majority of the authorized number of Managers at a meeting of the Board constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business except as hereinafter provided. Members of the Board may participate in a meeting through use of conference telephone or similar communications equipment so long as all members participating in such meeting can hear one another. Participation in a meeting as permitted in the preceding sentence constitutes presence in person at such meeting. Every act or decision done or made by a majority of the Managers present at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is present shall be regarded as the act of the Board, unless a greater number, or the same number after disqualifying one (1) or more Managers from voting, is required by law, by the Certificate, or by this Agreement. A meeting at which a quorum is initially present may continue to transact business notwithstanding the withdrawal of a Manager, provided that any action taken is approved by at least a majority of the required quorum for such meeting.

4.11 Validation of Defectively Called or Noticed Meetings. The transactions of any meeting of the Board, however called and noticed or wherever held, shall be as valid as though had at a meeting duly held after regular call and notices if a quorum is present and if, either before or after the meeting, each of the Managers not present or who, though present, has prior to the meeting or at its commencement, protested the lack of proper notice to him, signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to holding such meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof. All such waivers, consents or approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting.

4.12 Adjournment. A quorum of the Managers may adjourn any Managers’ meeting to meet again at a stated day and hour; provided, however, that in the absence of a quorum a majority of the Managers presented at any Managers’ meeting, either regular or special, may adjourn from time to time until the time fixed for the next regular meeting of the Board.

4.13 Notice of Adjournment. If the meeting is adjourned for more than twenty-four (24) hours, notice of any adjournment to another time or place shall be given prior to the time of the adjourned meeting to the Managers who were not present at the time of adjournment.

Any officer may be removed by the Board at any time with or without cause. The officers shall hold their offices until such time as they are removed or replaced by the Board, or they resign, provided that no officer shall perform any duties or exercise any powers of such position related to Michigan operations (to the extent that such officer is required to be eligible, qualified, and suitable) until such officer has been determined to be qualified or licensed or both or otherwise authorized by the Board. A person who so performs his or her duties shall not have any liability by reason of being or having been an officer of the Company. The officers of the Company, and such additional officers of the Company, shall have the duties and powers that are commensurate with such offices and capacities for companies similarly situated, or as the Board otherwise determines.
