		The ownership interest of a Member or Assignee in the Company is referred to as a “Membership Interest” and may consist of any combination of Units (see 2.1.1.1) or Preferred Units (see 2.1.1.2), and includes all rights and obligations specified in this Agreement and any Certificates of Designations.

			2.1.1.1			Unit
						“Unit” means a fractional part of all Membership Interests and having the rights and obligations specified with respect to the Units in this Agreement and in the Certificate of Designations creating such class of Units. A Unit shall not mean a Preferred Unit.
			2.1.1.2			Preferred Unit

2.1.3 Authority to Issue Units and Preferred Units

2.1.3.1 Subject to the conditions in this section, the Board of Managers may issue authorized, but unissued Units or non-designated Preferred Units in one or more classes or series as the Board of Managers may determine from time to time for such consideration and under such circumstances as the Board of Managers may approve.

Page 5

is authorized to fix the number of any class (or series within a class) of Units or of any series of Preferred Units and to determine the designation of such classes or series, except that:

(b)		the Class 1 Units shall be designated as set forth in Section 2.1.5.

2.1.3.2 The Board of Managers may in its sole discretion and without the Consent of Members cause the Company to issue additional Units to officers, directors, employees, or agents of the Company for compensatory or incentive-based performance, including, without limitation, the issuance of Units pursuant to options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights. However, the aggregate number of Units issued for such purposes shall not exceed one percent (1%) of the number of Units issued to the Initial Members on the Effective Date, as such number may be appropriately adjusted to account for splits or reverse splits of Units.

2.1.4		Protective Provisions for the Preferred Units and Units
		Subject to the Protective Provisions for the Preferred Units (see 2.1.4.1) and the Protective Provisions for the Units (see 2.1.4.2), the Board of Managers has the power, in its sole discretion, to establish the rights, privileges, preferences and restrictions of any series of Preferred Units or class of Units as subordinate to, equal with or senior to (including, without limitation, provisions with respect to voting rights; convertibility; allocations of Profits and Losses (see 7.1.7); distributions of all kinds, including upon dissolution, liquidation, or winding-up of the Company; and redemption) any present or future series of Preferred Units or class of Units.

2.1.4.1		Protective Provisions for Preferred Units
		“Protective Provisions for Preferred Units” means, with respect to any series of Preferred Units that may come into existence, those explicit terms set forth in the applicable Certificate of Designations (see 2.1.6) as having a priority or other special treatment in relation to the Units or any other series of Preferred Units in existence or created in the future.
2.1.4.2		Protective Provisions for Units
		“Protective Provisions for Units” means with respect to any class of Units the following:

		(a)		Subject to the authority of the Tax Matters Partner (see 7.5) to make allocations necessary to comply with the Treasury Regulations (see 7.1.1), no class of Units may be created with a right to receive any special allocations within the meaning of Section 704(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) to the material detriment of any class of Units that may be in existence;
		(b)		No class of Units or series of Preferred Units may be created with a right to receive Mandatory Distributions prior to any other class of Units that may be in existence. “Mandatory Distributions” means

Page 6

distributions required to be paid to one or more classes of Units or any series of Preferred Units before the payment of any Additional Distribution (see 4.1) as more fully described in the applicable Certificate of Designations for the class of Units or series of Preferred Units. Notwithstanding the prior sentence, classes of Units or series of Preferred Units may be created with a right to receive Mandatory Distributions in an amount less than, equal to or greater than another class of Units, provided that if there is a shortfall in the Company’s ability to pay such distributions when due to all classes of Units:

				(1)		all classes of Units entitled to receive Mandatory Distributions shall share in such shortfall on a pro rata basis, unless a class has received a lower priority in its Certificate of Designations; and
				(2)		no Preferred Units shall receive any distributions until such shortfall has been paid in full;

		(c)		The Board of Managers may declare Additional Distributions for Units on a class-by-class basis, provided that no class of Units may receive an Additional Distribution that is double the Additional Distribution declared for any other class of Units on a per Unit annualized basis. For example, if Classes 1, 2, 3 and 4 are outstanding, the Board of Managers may declare an Additional Distribution of $0.04 per unit payable to the Class 2 and Class 4 holders, provided that the Board of Managers also declares an Additional Distribution payable to the Class 1 and Class 3 holders of at least $0.02 per unit;
		(d)		No class of Units may be created with a right to receive a priority in payment upon the liquidation or dissolution of the Company over any other classes of Units that may be in existence;
		(e)		No class of Units may be created with a right to be redeemed earlier than June 30, 2007;
		(f)		The voting rights applicable to any class of Units in Sections 2.2.2 and 2.2.3; and
		(g)		The terms set forth in the Certificate of Designations (see 2.1.5 and 2.1.6) for any class of Units that specify a priority or special treatment with respect to any other class of Units or Preferred Units, provided that such priority or other special treatment is not prohibited by the Protective Provisions for the Units or Protective Provisions for the Preferred Units.

2.1.4.3 If there is a conflict between the Protective Provisions for the Units and the Protective Provisions for the Preferred Units, the conflict shall be resolved in the manner most favorable to the Units. If there is a conflict between classes of Units, the conflict shall be resolved in the manner most favorable to the earliest class of Units that was created. The Certificate of Designations creating any class of Units may specifically

Page 7

waive one or more of the Protective Provisions for the benefit of that class (e.g. a class of Units could be created as non-voting).

2.1.5		Creation of Class 1 Certificate of Designations
		Attached to this Agreement as Exhibit D-1 is the Certificate of Designations for the Class 1 Units. As of the date of this Agreement, the existing Common Units of the Company shall be automatically redesignated as Class 1 Units on a 1:1 basis. All Unit Holders as of the date of this Agreement are deemed to hold Class 1 Units, until such time as they have been converted to any future class of Units or Preferred Units as permitted by the Certificate of Designations for the Class 1 Units, the Transfer Application, the Bylaws, Article 6 of this Agreement and applicable law.
2.1.6		Creation of Other Certificates of Designations
		Except for the Certificate of Designations for the Class 1 Units, the Board of Managers shall create each class of Units or series of Preferred Units by approving a Certificate of Designations that sets forth the terms of the class of Units or series of Preferred Units. Upon the proper approval by the Board of Managers and execution of the Certificate of Designations by the Chief Executive Officer, this Agreement shall automatically be deemed amended to give effect to the terms set forth in the Certificate of Designations. Each Certificate of Designations shall be an exhibit to this Agreement, with the Certificate of Designations for the Class 1 Units identified as Exhibit D-1. The next created Certificate of Designations shall be identified as Exhibits X-0, X-0, etc.
2.1.7		Splits and Reverse Splits
		Subject to any protective provisions set forth in this Agreement or in any Certificate of Designations, the Board of Managers may effect a split or reverse split of any class of Units or any series of Preferred Units, by adopting a resolution to that effect. If the Board of Managers determines that it is desirable to make any filings in order to reference the existence of such a split or reverse split, the Board of Managers may cause such filings to be made. These filings may take the form of amendments to the Certificate. Unless specifically required by the Act, no approval or Consent of any Member shall be required in connection with the making of such filing.
2.1.8		Status of Repurchased or Redeemed Units or Preferred Units
		Except as set forth in the Certificate of Designations, any Units or Preferred Units redeemed or repurchased by the Company shall be deemed cancelled and shall be returned to the status of authorized but unissued.

III. ARTICLE 3: MANAGERS AND OFFICERS

3.1 Board of Managers

Except as may otherwise be provided by the Act or by this Agreement, the property, affairs and business of the Company shall be managed by a board on which all of the Company’s Managers sit in their capacities as Managers (“Board of Managers”). “Managers” mean those individuals serving on the Board of Managers of the Company, including successor or additional Managers duly elected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

		The number of seats constituting the entire Board of Managers shall be at least seven (7) (the “Minimum Size”), and no more than thirteen (13) (the “Maximum Size”). The range from the Minimum Size to the Maximum Size is referred to as the “Variable Board Size.” The size of the Board of Managers at any particular time shall be referred to as the “Whole Board.” The size of the Whole Board is currently ten (10). The Board of Managers may, by a resolution, change the number of seats constituting the Whole Board to any number of seats within the Variable Board Size. The Variable Board Size may only be changed if:

		3.2.1.1		the change has first been approved by a resolution of a majority of the Whole Board, and
		3.2.1.2		the change has been approved by the Unit Holders.

3.2.2		Election of Managers
		The Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) shall sit as a Manager and occupy one of the seats on the Board of Managers, but shall be subject to removal and replacement solely by the Board of Managers with or without cause, subject to the rights of the CEO under a contract of employment or management services agreement. The remaining Managers shall be elected by the Members (except as necessary to fill vacancies) and are referred to herein as the "Elected Managers.”
3.2.3		Term of Office and Vacancies
		Each Manager shall hold office until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until his or her death, resignation, or removal. Any vacancies on the Board of Managers may be filled only by a majority of the Board of Managers then in office.
3.2.4		Groups of Managers
		The Elected Managers shall be divided into three (3) groups with respect to their term of office. Each group of Elected Managers shall contain as near as possible one-third (1/3) of the Elected Managers. From May 22, 2002 (the “Group Term Effective Date”), the Elected Managers shall consist of the following groups, who shall serve for the following terms:

Page 13

GROUP		INITIAL TERM		SUBSEQUENT TERMS
Group 1		From the Group Term Effective Date until the annual meeting of the Members in 2003 (i.e., for a one-year initial term).		After their initial term, the Group 1 Managers shall serve until the annual meeting of Members held three years after their election. (Accordingly, the Group 1 Managers will be up for election in 2003, 2006, 2009, etc.)
Group 2		From the Group Term Effective Date until the annual meeting of the Members in 2004 (i.e., for a two-year initial term).		After their initial term, the Group 2 Managers shall serve until the annual meeting of Members held three years after their election. (Accordingly, the Group 2 Managers will be up for election in 2004, 2007, 2010, etc.)
Group 3		From the Group Term Effective Date until the annual meeting of the Members in 2005 (i.e., for a three-year initial term).		After their initial term, the Group 3 Managers shall serve until the annual meeting of Members held three years after their election. (Accordingly, the Group 3 Managers will be up for election in 2005, 2008, 2011, etc.)

No decrease in the number of Elected Managers shall have the effect of shortening the term in office of any incumbent Elected Manager. The Members shall be entitled to amend this section to eliminate the grouping of the Managers or to otherwise modify the grouped terms of the Managers. However, no such amendment shall have the effect of shortening the term in office of any incumbent Elected Manager.

3.3      Authority of Board of Managers

The Board of Managers, in its sole discretion, has full, complete and exclusive right, power and authority in the management and control of the Company’s business to do any and all things necessary to effectuate the purpose of the Company, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The members of the Board of Managers shall devote such time as is necessary to the affairs of the Company, and shall receive such compensation from the Company and such reimbursement for expenses as is permitted by this Agreement and the Bylaws. No Person dealing with the Board of Managers shall be required to determine its authority to make any undertaking on behalf of the Company or to determine any facts or circumstances bearing upon the existence of such authority. The Managers shall act only as a Board, and the individual Managers shall have no power as such in his or her capacity as a Manager. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Bylaws with regard to the Board of Managers, the approval of a matter by a majority of the Managers present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall constitute approval by the Board of Managers. In the case of a written Consent without a meeting, the approval of a matter by all of the Managers shall constitute approval by the Board of Managers.

3.4      General Powers of Managers

The Board of Managers may exercise all the powers of the Company. The Members shall have no right to act on behalf of or to bind the Company. The Board of Managers shall have the power and authority to hire employees and such other agents, who may be designated as officers, consultants and Persons necessary or appropriate to effectuate

Page 14

the purpose of the Company, and delegate to one or more Persons, or to committees of the Board of Managers, its rights and powers to manage and control the affairs of the Company. Such delegation may be in the Bylaws or by a management agreement or other agreement with such Persons. Such delegation shall not cause the Managers to cease to be “managers,” within the meaning of the Act, of the Company. Management agreements or other agreements may designate other Persons to be “managers,” within the meaning of the Act, of the Company. The officers other than the CEO shall not be “managers,” within the meaning of the Act, of the Company.

3.5      Reimbursement of Expenses

The Elected Managers shall be reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with performing their duties as Managers and may be paid compensation as determined by the Board of Managers. The CEO shall be compensated on terms approved by the Board of Managers.

3.6      Interested Transactions

No contract or transaction between the Company and one or more of its Affiliates (see 9.12.1), Managers or officers, or between the Company and any other Entity in which one or more of the Company’s Affiliates, Managers or officers are directors or officers, or have a financial interest, shall be voided solely for this reason, or solely because the Manager or officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board of Managers or of a committee which authorizes the transaction, or solely because his or their votes are counted for such purpose, if:

	3.6.1		The material facts as to such Affiliate’s, Manager’s or officer’s relationship or interest as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board of Managers or the committee, and the Board of Managers or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of the disinterested Managers, even though the disinterested Managers be less than a quorum; or
	3.6.2		The contract or transaction is fair as to the Company.

Interested Managers may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board of Managers or of a committee which authorizes the contract or transaction.

3.7      Officers

Pursuant to the Bylaws, the Company will have officers, who need not be employees of the Company, who will have the rights and be subject to the restrictions provided in this Agreement.

3.8      Amendment and Interpretation of Bylaws, Certificates of Designations and Agreement

Except as otherwise set forth in a Certificate of Designations, the Bylaws may be amended by the affirmative vote of a majority of all members of the Board of Managers as provided in the Bylaws without any further approval of any Member or other Person. The Board of Managers shall have the authority and power to reasonably interpret this Agreement, Certificates of Designations and the Bylaws, and may resolve actual or perceived ambiguities in those documents as it reasonably determines. In addition, the Board of Managers shall have the authority to cause a restated Agreement to be prepared

IV.     ARTICLE 4: DISTRIBUTIONS

4.1     Additional Distributions

Subject to any rights set forth in a Certificate of Designations, the Board of Managers may declare a distribution (“Additional Distribution”) payable to the holders of record as of the first day of the month designated by the Board of Managers (“Record Date”) out of available cash less the portion thereof used to pay or establish reserves for Company expenses, debt payments, capital improvements, replacements and contingencies, all as reasonably determined by the Board of Managers. Any Additional Distributions shall be mailed to such holders of record no later than the last day of the month. In lieu of mailing, the Company may transmit payment to a Member in any other manner agreed to in writing by the Member.

4.2      Allocation of Additional Distributions

Subject to any applicable Certificate of Designations, granting any class of Units or series of Preferred Units preferential, participating or subordinate rights, the holders of Units as of the Record Date shall be entitled to receive all such Additional Distributions which the Board of Managers has declared, with each Unit entitled to participate by receiving a pro rata portion (with reference to the number of Units then held by such Person to the total number of Units entitled to participate then held by all Persons) of such Additional Distributions, except as set forth in the next two sentences. The Board of Managers has the authority, in its sole discretion, to declare Additional Distributions in different amounts between classes of Units, subject to the limits contained in Section 2.1.4.2(c) and any limits contained in an applicable Certificate of Designations. The Preferred Units shall not be entitled to participate in any Additional Distributions or limit any Additional Distributions, unless the Certificate of Designations creating a series of Preferred Units grants the series of Preferred Units:

	4.2.1		a right to participate in the Additional Distributions,
	4.2.2		a right over the Units with respect to Additional Distributions, or
	4.2.3		otherwise limits the payment of Additional Distributions to the Units.

4.3      Distributions Relating to Liquidation Events

In the event of the dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, after satisfaction of all of the Company’s liabilities (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment therefor), the balance, if any, of the Company’s assets (including cash or in-kind property as determined by the liquidator selected by the Board of Managers) shall be distributed first proportionately to the holders of Preferred Units to the extent set forth in the Certificate of Designations creating each series of Preferred Units, and second to the Members in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests (see 7.1.6). The Members believe and intend that the effect of making any and all liquidating distributions in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.3 will result in each Member receiving liquidating distributions equal to the amount of distributions each such Member would have received if liquidating distributions were instead distributed in accordance with the positive balance standing in each such Member’s Capital Account. If the immediately preceding sentence is for any reason inaccurate, then the Tax Matters Partner, upon the advice of tax counsel to the Company, is hereby authorized to make such revisions to the allocations or income, gain, loss or deduction as may have occurred

Page 17

under Article 7 as may be reasonably necessary to cause such allocations to be in compliance with Section 704(b) of the Code and the Regulations promulgated thereunder.

4.4      Priority

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, it is specifically acknowledged and agreed by each Member that the Company’s failure to pay any amounts to such Member, whether as a distribution, redemption payment or otherwise, even if such payment is specifically required by this Agreement, shall not give such Member creditor status with regard to such unpaid amount; but rather, such Member shall be treated only as a Member of whatever class or series such Person is a Member, and not as a creditor, of the Company. This section is, as permitted by Section 18-606 of the Act, intended to override the provisions of Section 18-606 of the Act relating to a Member’s status and remedies as a creditor, to the extent that such provisions would be applicable in the absence of this section.

4.5      Withholding

Each Member hereby authorizes the Company to withhold from or pay on behalf of the member, any amount of federal, state, local or foreign taxes that the Tax Matters Partner determines the Company is required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable or allocable to such Member pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any taxes required to be withheld or paid by the Company pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445 or 1446 of the Code. Any amount paid on behalf of a Member shall constitute a loan by the Company to such Member, which loan shall be repaid by such Member within fifteen (15) days after notice from the Board of Managers that such payment must be made, unless:

	4.5.1		the Company withholds such payment from a distribution which would otherwise be made to the Member; or
	4.5.2		the Board of Managers determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such payment may be satisfied out of the available funds of the Company which would, but for such payment, be distributed to the Member. Any amounts withheld pursuant to the foregoing Sections 4.5.1 or 4.5.2 shall be treated as having been distributed to such Member.

		The death, retirement, resignation, expulsion, bankruptcy (see Section 18-304 of the Act) or dissolution of a Member or the occurrence of any other event that terminates the continued membership of a Member in the Company, shall not cause the dissolution of the Company except to the extent specified in this section.

5.2      Application of Assets

In the event of dissolution, the Company shall conduct only such activities as are necessary to wind up its affairs in an orderly manner. The assets of the Company shall be applied first, as required by Section 18-804(a)(1) of the Act, and then in the manner, and in the order of priority, set forth in Section 4.3. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event the Company is liquidated within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), liquidation distributions shall be made by the end of the taxable year in which the Company liquidates or, if later, within ninety (90) days of the date of such liquidation.

Page 19

and treated as though the property was sold at its fair market value and the cash proceeds distributed. The difference between the fair market value of property distributed in-kind and its Book Value (see 7.1.3) shall be treated as a gain or loss on the sale of such property and shall be credited or charged to the Capital Account of Members in accordance with Article 7. No Member shall have the right to request or require the distribution of the assets of the Company in-kind. At all times, Book Value shall be adjusted by any Depreciation (see 7.1.4) taken into account with respect to the Company’s assets for purposes of computing Profit and Loss.

   5.4          Procedural and Other Matters

5.4.1		Winding Up Company Affairs
		Upon dissolution of the Company and until the filing of a certificate of cancellation as provided in Section 5.4.2, the Persons winding up the affairs of the Company may prosecute and defend suits on behalf of the Company, whether civil, criminal or administrative, settle and close the business of the Company, dispose of and convey the property of the Company, discharge or make reasonable provision for the liabilities of the Company, and distribute to the Members any remaining assets of the Company, in accordance with this Article 5, without affecting the liability of Members and Managers and without imposing liability on a liquidating trustee.
5.4.2		Cancellation of Certificate
		The Certificate may be canceled upon the dissolution and completion of the winding up of the Company by any Person authorized by the Board of Managers to cause such cancellation.

7.4.2.2 Profits

(a)		First, to the Members to the extent of and in proportion to the amount by which the Losses allocated to each such Member for all prior Fiscal Years of the Company under Section 7.4.2.1(b) exceeds the Profits allocated to each such Member for all of the prior Fiscal Years of the Company under this Section 7.4.2.2(a).
(b)		Second, to the Members, to the extent of, and in proportion to, the amount by which Losses allocated to each such Member for the current and all prior Fiscal Years of the Company under Section 7.4.2.1(a) exceeds the Profits allocated to each such Member for all prior Fiscal Years of the Company pursuant to this Section 7.4.2.2(b).
(c)		Third, to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.

7.4.2.3		Items of Income or Loss
		For federal income tax purposes, except as otherwise required in Section 7.4.2.4, each item of Profit, gain, Loss and deduction of the

Page 24

Company shall be allocated among the Members in the same proportion as the corresponding items are allocated pursuant to Sections 7.4.2.1 and 7.4.2.2.

7.4.2.4 Special and Regulatory Allocations

		(a)		When required under the Treasury Regulations, items of income and gain shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with the qualified income offset provisions set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). Further, (i) any and all “partnership nonrecourse deductions” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) for any fiscal year or other period shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests; (ii) any and all “partner nonrecourse deductions” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(2)) attributable to any “partner nonrecourse debt” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(4)) shall be allocated to the Member who bears the “economic risk of loss” (as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-2) for such “partner nonrecourse debt” in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(l); (iii) each Member shall be specially allocated items of income and gain in accordance with the partnership minimum gain chargeback requirements set forth in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f) and 1.704-2(g); and (iv) each Member with a share of the minimum gain attributable to any “partner nonrecourse debt” shall be specially allocated items of income and gain in accordance with the partner minimum chargeback requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(i)(5). Collectively, the allocations referenced in this Section 7.4.2.4(b) are the “Regulatory Allocations.”
		(b)		This provision shall apply upon the repurchase, redemption, or liquidating distribution of any Preferred Units for any reason when the amounts required to be paid or distributed to any holder of those Preferred Units as set forth in the Certificate of Designations creating each series of Preferred Units exceeds the Capital Account balance of such holder after accounting for the allocations of Profits under Section 7.4.2.2 that would have occurred without the application of this Section 7.4.2.4(b). If the distribution to the holder required under the Certificate of Designations creating each series of Preferred Units would exceed the positive balance in the holder’s Capital Account, then, before any allocation of Profit occurs under Section 7.4.2.2, there shall be an allocation of items of income or gain to each such holder in an amount equal to the difference between the amount required to be distributed under the Certificate of Designations creating each series of Preferred Units and the holder’s Capital Account balance.
		(c)		The Tax Matters Partner shall have the authority to make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Member’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital

Page 25

Account balance such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of the Agreement and all Company items were allocated consistent with Sections 7.4.2, 7.4.2.4(b) and 7.4.3.

7.4.3		Rights of Units or Preferred Units
		Subject to the Protective Provisions for the Units and Section 7.4.2.4(b) herein, the allocation procedures in this Article 7 shall be modified by the Certificate of Designations creating any class of Units or series of Preferred Units in which the Certificate of Designation requires that special allocations of items of Profit or Loss are allocated to the holders of such newly created Units.
7.5		Tax Matters Partner
7.5.1		General Authority
		The “Tax Matters Partner” (as defined in Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code) shall have all of the powers that accompany such status (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). To the extent reasonably practicable, the Tax Matters Partner shall consult with tax counsel to the Company prior to taking any action in his or her capacity as the Tax Matters Partner and, if tax counsel so recommends as to a specific action, then the Tax Matters Partner shall obtain the approval of the Board of Managers before taking such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Tax Matters Partner reasonably believes in good faith, after consulting with tax counsel, that an action must be taken without first receiving the approval of the Board of Managers on account of time limitations, such action may be taken without first receiving the approval of the Board of Managers, but the Tax Matters Partner shall promptly thereafter inform the Board of Managers of such action.
7.5.2		Term of Office
		The Tax Matters Partner or any successor shall serve at the pleasure of the Board of Managers and may be removed at any time for any reason or no reason. A successor Tax Matters Partner may be any Person selected by the Board of Managers who is qualified to hold such position under the applicable Treasury Regulations. Notwithstanding Section 3.5, the Tax Matters Partner may receive such compensation as the Board of Managers determines for acting as the Tax Matters Partner.
7.5.3		Indemnity
		Promptly following written request of the Tax Matters Partner, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, defend (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Tax Matters Partner), indemnify and hold the Tax Matters Partner harmless from and against any and all reasonable expenses, including reasonable legal and accounting fees, penalties, claims, liabilities, losses and damages incurred which arise out of or relate to any action or inaction in his or her capacity as Tax Matters Partner which is made in good faith and in a manner the Tax Matters Partner reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company and the Members. For purposes of this Section 7.5.3, the fact that an action, omission to act or decision is taken on the advice of a professional tax advisor shall be evidence of good faith. The provisions of Section 7.5.3 shall survive the termination of the Company or the removal, resignation or termination of the Tax Matters Partner and shall remain binding on the Company and Members for as long a period of time as

Page 26

		is necessary to resolve with the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) any and all matters regarding the federal income taxation of the Company or the Members.
7.5.4		Tax Matter Partner Additional Responsibilities

7.5.4.1		If the Company is required by the IRS to change the method of allocating for the difference between the tax basis and the Book Value of the real properties, the Tax Matters Partner may change or amend the method of allocating such difference as required by the IRS or upon receiving the advice of its tax advisors that a change is necessary to comply with applicable law, and any such change may be made without obtaining further Consent or approval of the Members.
7.5.4.2		The Tax Matters Partner shall have the sole discretion to make special allocations of items of income, gain, loss and deductions that are consistent with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code and to amend the provisions of this Agreement (without Member Consent), as appropriate, to reflect the proposal or promulgation of Treasury Regulations under Subchapter K of the Code. The Tax Matters Partner may adopt and employ such methods for handling all aspects of the Company’s federal, state and local income and property taxes including, but not limited to the adoption of reasonable conventions and methods for the valuation of assets and the determination of tax basis, the recognition of the Transfer of Units and Preferred Units and tax compliance.

8.2.2		Indemnification

8.2.2.1		To the fullest extent permitted by law, all Managers and officers of the Company shall be entitled to indemnification from the Company for any loss, damage or claim, including any reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by such person, due to any act or omission made by him or her, except in the case of fraudulent or knowingly illegal conduct of such Person. Any indemnity shall be paid out of the assets of the Company or from any available insurance proceeds. No Member shall have any personal liability for the payment of such indemnity.
8.2.2.2		The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Person acted fraudulently or knowingly illegally.

Page 28

8.2.2.3 The indemnification provided by this Article 8 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any agreement, vote of Members or Managers, the Order, or otherwise, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a Person.

		The Company may, if the Board of Managers of the Company deems it appropriate in its sole discretion, obtain insurance for the benefit of the Company’s Managers and officers, or enter into indemnification agreements with such Managers and officers, relating to the liability of such Persons.
8.3		No Adverse Modification of Indemnity
