c. Elimination of Duties and Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or anything otherwise existing at law (whether common or statutory), in equity or otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in taking actions for, on behalf or in respect of, or relating or with respect to the Company, including,
without limitation, causing the Company to take or refuse to take any action in respect of any matter, and for all other purposes, no Covered Person shall have any duties (including any fiduciary duties), whether direct or indirect, or any liabilities relating thereto, to the Company, any Member or any other person or entity that is a party to or is otherwise bound by this Agreement, including, without limitation, any duty (including any fiduciary duty) to consider any interests of or factors affecting the Company, any Member or any other person or entity, and such Covered Person shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, any such duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto, if any, being hereby eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (and provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as eliminating the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing or liability for any act or omission that constitutes a bad faith violation thereof).
11. Distributions. At such time as the Member shall determine, the Member may cause the Company to distribute any cash held by it that is neither reasonably necessary for the operation of the Company nor otherwise in violation of Sections 18-607 or 18-804 of the Act.
12. Assignments. The Member may assign all or any part of its Interest in the sole discretion of the Member.

17. Distributions upon Dissolution. Upon the dissolution of the Company pursuant to Section 16 hereof, the Company shall continue solely for the purposes of winding up its affairs in an orderly manner, liquidating its assets and satisfying the claims of its creditors and the Member, and the Member shall not take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, the winding up of the Company's business and affairs; provided that all covenants contained in this Agreement and obligations provided for in this Agreement shall continue to be fully binding upon the Member until such time as the property of the Company has been distributed pursuant to this Section 17 and the Certificate of Formation of the Company has been cancelled pursuant to the Act and this Agreement. The Member shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and dissolution of the Company. Upon the dissolution of the Company pursuant to Section 16 hereof, the Member shall take full account of the Company's liabilities and assets and shall cause the assets or the proceeds from the sale thereof, to the extent sufficient therefor, to be applied and distributed, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to the Member, after paying or making reasonable provision for all of the Company's creditors to the extent required by Section 18-804 of the Act.

22. Severability. Except as otherwise provided in the succeeding sentence, every term and provision of this Agreement is intended to be severable, and if any term or provision of this Agreement is illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the legality or validity of the remainder of this Agreement. The preceding sentence shall be of no force or effect if the consequence of enforcing the remainder of this Agreement without such illegal or invalid term or provision would be to cause any party to lose the benefit of its economic bargain.
23. Consent to Jurisdiction/Service of Process. The Member hereby (a) irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any Delaware state court or Federal court sitting in Wilmington, Delaware in any action arising out of this Agreement, and (b)
consents to the service of process by mail. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any manner permitted by law or affect its right to bring any action in any other court.
24. Relationship between the Agreement and the Act. Regardless of whether any provision of this Agreement specifically refers to particular Default Rules, (a) if any provision of this Agreement conflicts with a Default Rule, the provision of this Agreement controls and the Default Rule is modified or negated accordingly, and (b) if it is necessary to construe a Default Rule as modified or negated in order to effectuate any provision of this Agreement, the Default Rule is modified or negated accordingly. For purposes of this Section 24, "Default Rule" shall mean a rule stated in the Act that applies except to the extent it is negated or modified through the provisions of a limited liability company's certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement.
