(c) Such Member understands that the Membership Interests have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state and must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or unless an exemption from such registration becomes or is available.

(e) Such Member confirms that (i) such Member is familiar with the business of the Company, (ii) such Member has had the opportunity to ask questions about the Company and to obtain (and that such Member has received to its satisfaction) such information about the business and financial condition of the Company as such Member has reasonably requested, and (iii) such Member, either alone or with such Member’s representative (as defined in Rule 501(h) promulgated under the Securities Act), if any, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Member is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Membership Interests.
(f) Such Member acknowledges and agrees that such Member’s Membership Interests can not be sold, assigned, transferred, exchanged or otherwise disposed of except in compliance with the terms of the Securityholders Agreement, if any, to which such Member is bound.
2.3. Membership Interests; Certification. The Membership Interests shall be divided into three classes of Units consisting of units of Common Membership Interests (the “Common Units“), units of Series A Preferred Membership Interests (the “Series A Preferred Units“) and units of Series B Preferred Membership Interests (the “Series B Preferred Units“ and, together with the Series A Preferred Units, the “Preferred Units“ and, together with Series A Preferred Units and the Common Units, the “Units“). As of the date hereof, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby, there shall be authorized (i) 65,000,000 Common Units, of which 49,713,285.6800 will be issued and outstanding, (ii) 60,000 Series A Preferred Units, of which 49,727.2033 will be issued and outstanding, and (iii) 550,000 Series B Preferred Units, of which 447,419.5533 will be issued and outstanding. The Company may, in its discretion, issue certificates to the Members representing the Units of Membership Interests held by each Member. To the extent that the holder of a Unit is required by the other provisions of this Agreement to deliver or surrender such holder’s certificates representing Units, then, in the event that the Units are not certificated by the Company, the Company will provide a form to be completed and delivered by such holder in lieu thereof.
2.4. Common Units. Except as otherwise provided herein, all Common Units shall be identical and shall entitle the holders thereof to the same rights and privileges.
(a) Dividends. Holders of Common Units shall be entitled to receive ratably on a per unit basis such dividends as may be declared by the Board of Directors.
(b) Voting Rights of Common Units. Subject to the applicable provisions of any Securityholders Agreement, the holders of Common Units shall have the general right to vote for all purposes, including the election of directors of the Board of Directors of the Company (“Directors“), as provided by applicable law. Each holder of Common Units shall be entitled to one vote for each unit thereof held. There shall be no cumulative voting.
5
(c) Distribution of Assets. In the event of the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of Common Units shall be entitled to receive all of the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to its members after all amounts to which the holders of Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units are entitled have been paid or set aside in cash for payment.
(d) Common Unit Original Issue Price. The “Common Unit Original Issue Price“ is equal to $1.00 per Common Unit.
2.5. Series A Preferred Units
(a) Accrual and Payment of Dividends.
(i) The holders of Series A Preferred Units shall be entitled to receive, subject to Section 18-607 of the Act, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, cumulative cash dividends at the rate of 14% per unit per annum on the Series A Original Issue Price, compounded semi-annually.
(ii) Such dividends shall be payable in semi-annual installments in arrears commencing March 15, 2005 and thereafter on the fifteenth day of March and September (unless such day is not a Business Day (defined below) in which event on the last preceding Business Day) in each such year (hereinafter referred to as a “Series A Dividend Accrual Date“). Each such dividend on Series A Preferred Units when paid shall be payable to holders of record as they appear on the books of the Company on the date established by the Board of Directors of the Company as the record date for the payment of such dividend (which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing such record date is adopted and which record date shall be not more than sixty days prior to such action). If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining holders for such purpose shall be at the close of business on the date on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating to such dividend payment. Dividends with respect to any Series A Preferred Units shall accrue (whether or not earned or declared) from the date of issuance of such units. As used herein, “Business Day“ means any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday, or a holiday on which national banking associations in the State of Delaware are closed.
(iii) Such dividends on the Series A Preferred Units shall be cumulative, whether or not earned or declared, so that if at any time full cumulative dividends at the rate aforesaid on all Series A Preferred Units then outstanding to the end of the semi-annual dividend period next preceding such time shall not have been paid, the amount of the deficiency shall be paid before any sum shall be set aside for or applied by the Company to the purchase, redemption or other acquisition for value of any Series A Junior Units (defined below) (either pursuant to any applicable sinking fund requirement or otherwise) or any dividend or other distribution shall be paid or declared and set apart for payment on any Series A Junior Units (other than a dividend payable in Series A Junior Units); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit the
6
Company from repurchasing Series A Junior Units from a former employee of the Company (or a subsidiary of the Company) where such repurchase arises from the Company’s option to repurchase such units upon termination of such employee’s employment with the Company (or a subsidiary) pursuant to a written plan or written agreement between the Company and such employee or from the Company’s obligation to repurchase such units pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.12 or 2.13. As used herein, “Series A Junior Units“ means any series or class of the membership interests of the Company now or hereafter authorized or issued by the Company, including any series or class of preferred units, ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Units with respect to dividends or distributions or upon the liquidation, distribution of assets, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, including without limitation the Series B Preferred Units and the Common Units. Accrued dividends on the Series A Preferred Units if not paid on the first or any subsequent Series A Dividend Accrual Date following accrual shall thereafter accrue additional dividends in respect thereof (the “Series A Additional Dividends“), compounded semi-annually, at the rate of 14% per annum on the amount of such accrued dividends.
(iv) When dividends are not paid in full upon the Series A Preferred Units and any other units ranking on a parity as to dividends with the Series A Preferred Units, all dividends paid upon Series A Preferred Units and any other units ranking on a parity as to dividends with the Series A Preferred Units shall be paid pro rata so that in all cases the amount of dividends paid per unit on the Series A Preferred Units and such other units shall bear the same ratio that accrued dividends per unit (including Series A Additional Dividends) on the Series A Preferred Units and such other units bear to each other. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, unless full cumulative dividends on the Series A Preferred Units have been paid, no dividends shall be declared or set aside for payment upon any other units of the Company ranking on a parity with the Series A Preferred Units as to dividends.
(v) A semi-annual dividend period shall commence on the day following a Series A Dividend Accrual Date and shall end on the next succeeding Series A Dividend Accrual Date.
(b) Voting Rights. Subject to the applicable provisions of any Securityholders Agreement, except as required by applicable law and except for any voting by the holders of Series A Preferred Units as part of a separate class or series pursuant to Section 2.5(e) or any other provision of this Agreement, no holder of Series A Preferred Units, as such holder, shall be entitled to vote on any matter submitted to a vote of the Members. On any matters on which the holders of the Series A Preferred Units shall be entitled to vote, they shall be entitled to one vote for each unit held. Except as otherwise required by law or as otherwise provided herein, the holders of Series A Preferred Units shall not be entitled to notice of any meeting of Members.
7
(c) Redemption Rights.
(i) If any outstanding Series A Preferred Units remain outstanding on the 9th anniversary after issuance of the Series A Preferred Units (the “Series A Mandatory Redemption Date“), then the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Series A Preferred Units shall have the right to elect to have the Company redeem all outstanding Series A Preferred Units from funds legally available therefor, in the manner provided in this Section 2.5(c), at a price per unit equal to $1,000 (the “Series A Original Issue Price“) plus an amount per unit equal to full cumulative dividends (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon (including Series A Additional Dividends) to the Series A Mandatory Redemption Closing Date (defined below) (such redemption, a “Series A Mandatory Redemption“). Notice of such an election by holders of Series A Preferred Units (the “Series A Mandatory Redemption Notice“) shall be given by such holders to the Company at least 90 days prior to the date redemption is desired (the “Series A Mandatory Redemption Closing Date“). In the event that the Company makes an affirmative election to be treated as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes or the Company is converted to a corporation under Delaware (or other state) law, whether by operation of law, merger or otherwise, then the Company shall have the right to extend the Series A Mandatory Redemption Date to a date that is twenty years and one day past the date of the resulting issuance of the preferred stock of the resulting corporation or the date of the deemed or actual conversion (or exchange) of the Series A Preferred Units into (or for) preferred stock of the resulting corporation, whichever is applicable.
(ii) The Series A Preferred Units may be redeemed from funds legally available therefor, in whole or in part, at the election of the Company, expressed by resolution of the Board of Directors, at any time and from time to time at a price per unit equal to the Series A Original Issue Price plus an amount per unit equal to full cumulative dividends (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon (including Series A Additional Dividends and all dividends which have accrued since the most recent Series A Dividend Accrual Date) to the date of such optional redemption (such redemption, a “Series A Optional Redemption“); provided that in the event that the Company makes an affirmative election to be treated as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes or the Company is converted to a corporation under Delaware (or other state) law, whether by operation of law, merger or otherwise, then the Company shall have no right to make a Series A Optional Redemption until the date that is twenty years and one day past the date of the resulting issuance of the preferred stock of the resulting corporation or the date of the deemed or actual conversion (or exchange) of the Series A Preferred Units into (or for) preferred stock of the resulting corporation, whichever is applicable. The date of any Series A Optional Redemption is hereinafter referred to as a “Series A Optional Redemption Date.”
(iii) The aggregate amount of any redemption pursuant to paragraph (i) or (ii) above is hereinafter referred to as the “Series A Redemption Price“ with respect to such redemption. Each of the Series A Mandatory Redemption Closing Date and the date of any Series A Optional Redemption is hereinafter referred to individually as a “Series A Redemption Date.”
8
(iv) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 2.5(c) shall be accomplished in the manner and with the effect as set forth in this Section 2.5(c). In the event that a Series A Mandatory Redemption Notice is given or the Company elects to make a Series A Optional Redemption, notice of the redemption of Series A Preferred Units shall be sent to each holder of record, at the close of business on the Business Day on which the Series A Mandatory Redemption Notice is given in the case of a Series A Mandatory Redemption, or on the record date for such redemption in the case of a Series A Optional Redemption, at such holder’s address as the same appears on the books of the Company not less than ten (10) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the Series A Redemption Date. Each such notice shall state (A) the Series A Redemption Date, (B) whether the redemption is a Series A Mandatory Redemption or Series A Optional Redemption, (C) the place or places where such units are to be surrendered, (D) that the holder is to surrender the units at the place of redemption and (E) that dividends on the Series A Preferred Units shall cease to accrue on the Series A Redemption Date. If less than all the outstanding Series A Preferred Units are to be redeemed, the selection of units for redemption shall be made pro rata and the notice of redemption to a holder shall state the number of Series A Preferred Units of such holder to be redeemed. The portion of the applicable Series A Redemption Price to which each holder of record of the Series A Preferred Units to be redeemed is entitled shall be delivered to the holder at the holder’s address as the same appears on the books of the Company; provided, however, that the full amount of the applicable Series A Redemption Price may instead be deposited (such deposit, the “Series A Deposit“) on or before the applicable Series A Redemption Date in trust for the account of the holders of Series A Preferred Units entitled thereto with a bank or trust company in good standing doing business in the State of New York and having capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000 (the date of such deposit being hereinafter referred to as the “Series A Date of Deposit“). Notice of the date on which, and the name and address of the bank or trust company with which, the Series A Deposit has or will be made shall be included in the notice of redemption.
(v) On and after the applicable Series A Redemption Date (unless default shall be made by the Company in providing money for the payment of the Series A Redemption Price pursuant to the notice of redemption), or if the Company shall make a Series A Deposit on or before the date specified therefor in the notice of redemption, then on and after the Series A Date of Deposit (provided notice of redemption has been duly given), all dividends on the Series A Preferred Units so called for redemption shall cease to accrue, and the notice of redemption shall so state, and, notwithstanding that any certificate for Series A Preferred Units is not surrendered for cancellation, the units represented thereby shall no longer be deemed outstanding and all rights of the holders thereof of the Company shall cease and terminate, except the right to receive the Series A Redemption Price (without interest) as hereinafter provided.
9
(vi) At any time on or after the applicable Series A Redemption Date, or if the Company shall make a Series A Deposit prior to the Series A Redemption Date, then at any time on or after the Series A Date of Deposit, which time shall be specified by the Company in the notice of redemption and which shall not be later than the applicable Series A Redemption Date, the holders of record of the Series A Preferred Units to be redeemed shall be entitled to receive the Series A Redemption Price upon actual delivery to the Company, or in the case of a Series A Deposit, then the bank or trust company with which such Series A Deposit shall be made, of certificates for the units to be redeemed, such certificates, if required, to be duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by proper instruments of assignment and transfer duly endorsed in blank. The making of such delivery to the Company or any such bank or trust company (as applicable) shall not relieve the Company of liability for payment of the Series A Redemption Price.
(vii) Any Series A Deposit funds which remain unclaimed by the holders of such Series A Preferred Units at the end of two (2) years after the Series A Redemption Date shall be paid by the bank or trust company to the Company, which shall thereafter, to the extent of the money so repaid, be liable for the payment of the Series A Redemption Price. Any interest accrued on any Series A Deposit shall be paid to the Company from time to time.
(viii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the amounts paid to each holder of Series A Preferred Units under this Section 2.5(c) shall not be in excess of the positive balance in the Series A Preferred Unit Capital Account of such holder (after taking into account any allocation of income, gain, loss or deductions pursuant to Article IV of this Agreement).
(d) Preference Rights on Liquidation.
(i) In the event that the Company shall be liquidated, dissolved or wound up, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, after all creditors of the Company shall have been paid in full, the holders of the Series A Preferred Units shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company legally available for distribution to its members, whether from capital, surplus or earnings, before any amount shall be paid to the holders of any Series A Junior Units, an amount equal to the Series A Original Issue Price in cash per unit plus an amount equal to full cumulative dividends (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon (including Series A Additional Dividends) to the date of final distribution, and no more. If upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the net assets of the Company shall be insufficient to pay the holders of all outstanding Series A Preferred Units and of any units ranking on a parity with the Series A Preferred Units the full amounts to which they respectively shall be entitled, such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed ratably among the holders of the Series A Preferred Units and any units ranking on a parity with the Series A Preferred Units in accordance with the amounts which would be payable on such distribution if the amount to which the
10
holders of the Series A Preferred Units and of any units ranking on a parity with the Series A Preferred Unit are entitled were paid in full. Holders of Series A Preferred Units shall not be entitled, upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, to receive any amounts with respect to such units other than the amounts referred to in this Section 2.5(d)(i).
(ii) Neither the purchase nor redemption by the Company of any class of units in any manner permitted by the Certificate or any amendment thereof, this Agreement or the Securityholders Agreements, if any, nor the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other business entity (as defined in the Act), nor the conversion of the Company into a corporation under Delaware (or other state) law, nor a sale, exchange, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company for the purposes of this Section 2.5(d); provided, however, that any consolidation or merger of the Company in which the Company is not the surviving entity shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company within the meaning of this Section 2.5(d) if, (A) in connection therewith, the holders of Series A Junior Units of the Company receive as consideration, whether in whole or in part, for such Series A Junior Units (1) cash, (2) notes, debentures or other evidences of indebtedness or obligations to pay cash or (3) preferred stock or units of the surviving entity which ranks on a parity with or senior to the preferred stock or units received by holders of the Series A Preferred Units with respect to liquidation or dividends or (B) the holders of the Series A Preferred Units do not receive preferred stock or units of the surviving entity with rights, powers and preferences equal to (or more favorable to the holders than) the rights, powers and preferences of the Series A Preferred Units.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.5(d), the amounts distributed under this Section 2.5(d) shall not be in excess of that which would be distributed to the holders of the Series A Preferred Units pursuant to Section 11.2(c) (after taking into account any allocation of income, gain, loss or deductions pursuant to Article IV of this Agreement).
(e) Other Rights. Subject to the applicable provisions of any Securityholders Agreement, without the written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding units of Series A Preferred Units or the vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding units of Series A Preferred Units at a meeting of the holders of Series A Preferred Units called for such purpose, the Company shall not amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Company’s Certificate or this Agreement so as to adversely affect the relative rights and preferences of the Series A Preferred Units; provided however, that any such amendment that changes the dividend payable on the Series A Preferred Units shall require the affirmative vote of the holder of each unit of Series A Preferred Units at a meeting of such holders called for such purpose or the written consent of the holder of each such unit of Series A Preferred Units; provided further, that in no event will the issuance of any series of preferred Units that is senior to, on a parity with or junior to the Series A Preferred Units or has a redemption date earlier than the Series A Preferred Units be deemed to adversely affect the rights and preferences of the Series A Preferred Units.
11
(f) Acknowledgement. Each holder of Series A Preferred Units, by acceptance thereof, acknowledges and agrees that payments of dividends, interest, premium and principal on, and redemption and repurchase of, such securities by the Company are subject to restrictions contained in certain credit and financing agreements of the Company.
(g) Conversion.
(i) The Series A Preferred Units may be converted, at the Company’s option upon or concurrently with the first underwritten public offering of the Common Units (such Common Units or securities into which the Common Units have been converted or changed, “Common Interests“) of the Company, pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act other than pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any similar or successor form, provided that the proceeds of such public offering amounts to at least $30,000,000 in gross proceeds to the Company, after the date hereof (“First Public Offering“), in whole or in part, into fully paid and non-assessable Common Interests. The number of Common Interests deliverable upon conversion of a Series A Preferred Unit, adjusted as hereinafter provided, is referred to herein as the “Conversion Ratio.” The Series A Conversion Ratio is an amount equal to the Series A Original Issue Price per Series A Preferred Unit plus an amount per Series A Preferred Unit equal to full cumulative dividends (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon (including Series A Additional Dividends and all dividends which have accrued since the most recent Series A Dividend Accrual Date) to the date of the consummation of the First Public Offering (the “Series A Conversion Date“), divided by the per Common Interest price to the public (less underwriting discounts and commissions) for Common Interests in the Company’s First Public Offering. If less than all the Series A Preferred Units are to be converted, the selection of Series A Preferred Units to be converted shall be pro rata.
(ii) If the Company does not elect to convert all of the Series A Preferred Units into Common Interests pursuant to paragraph (i), each holder of Series A Preferred Units may convert such holder’s Series A Preferred Units, at such holder’s option upon or concurrently with the Company’s First Public Offering, in whole or in part, into fully paid and non-assessable Common Interests. The number of Common Interests deliverable upon conversion of a Series A Preferred Unit, adjusted as hereinafter provided, shall equal the Series A Conversion Ratio.
(h) Conversion Procedure.
(i) Any conversion pursuant to paragraph (g) shall be accomplished in the manner and with the effect as set forth in this paragraph (h).
12
(ii) Notice of the conversion of Series A Preferred Units pursuant to paragraph (g)(i) shall be given by first class mail to each holder of record on the record date for such conversion at such holder’s address as the same appears on the books of the Company not less than fifteen (15) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the Series A Conversion Date. Each such notice shall state: (A) in the case of any conversion, whether all or less than all the outstanding Series A Preferred Units are to be converted and the total number of such Series A Preferred Units being converted, (B) the number of Series A Preferred Units held by the holder that the Company will convert, (C) the Series A Conversion Date and the procedure pursuant to which the price will be determined, at which such price Series A Preferred Units will be converted, (D) that the holder is to surrender to the Company, in the manner and at the place designated, its certificates representing the Series A Preferred Units to be converted, (E) that dividends on the Series A Preferred Units to be converted will cease to accrue on such Series A Conversion Date and (F) that the conversion will not occur without further notice unless the Series A Conversion Date occurs within sixty (60) days of the date of such notice.
(iii) If the Company does not elect to convert all of the Series A Preferred Units into Common Interests pursuant to paragraph (g)(i), notice of the Company’s First Public Offering shall be given by first class mail to each holder of record of Series A Preferred Units at such holder’s address as the same appears on the books of the Company not less than fifteen (15) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the Series A Conversion Date. Each such notice shall state: (A) that each holder of Series A Preferred Units may convert all or any portion of such holder’s Series A Preferred Units in connection with the Company’s First Public Offering upon written notice to the Company within fifteen (15) days of the date of the Company’s notice, (B) the Series A Conversion Date and the procedure pursuant to which the price will be determined, at which such price the Series A Preferred Units will be converted if such holder decides to convert any Series A Preferred Units, (C) that if such holder decides to convert any Series A Preferred Units, the holder is to surrender to the Company, in the manner and at the place designated, its certificates representing the Series A Preferred Units to be converted, (E) that if such holder decides to convert any Series A Preferred Units, dividends on the Series A Preferred Units to be converted will cease to accrue on such Series A Conversion Date and (F) that the conversion will not occur without further notice unless the Series A Conversion Date occurs within sixty (60) days of the date of such notice. If a holder of Series A Preferred Units elects to convert such holder’s Series A Preferred Units, such holder shall give notice to the Company of such holder’s election to convert within fifteen (15) days of the date of the Company’s notice. Each notice by a converting holder shall (i) state whether all or less than all the outstanding Series A Preferred Units held by such holder are to be converted and the total number of such Series A Preferred Units being converted and (ii) be accompanied by the unit certificate or certificates, if any, representing the Series A Preferred Units to be converted.
13
(iv) The holder of the Series A Preferred Units to be converted shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing such Series A Preferred Units at the office of the Company. Unless the Common Interests issuable on conversion are to be issued in the same name as the name in which such Series A Preferred Units are registered, each Series A Preferred Unit surrendered for conversion shall be accompanied by instruments of transfer, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the holder or the holder’s duly authorized attorney and an amount sufficient to pay any transfer or similar tax. As promptly as practicable after the surrender by the holder of the certificates for Series A Preferred Units as aforesaid, the Company shall issue and shall deliver to such holder, or on the holder’s written order to the holder’s transferee, a certificate or certificates for the whole number of Common Interests issuable upon the conversion of such Series A Preferred Units in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (g). If less than all the Series A Preferred Units represented by one unit certificate are to be converted, the Company shall issue a new unit certificate for the Series A Preferred Units not converted. The conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the Series A Conversion Date, and the person in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Common Interests shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Common Interests represented thereby at such time on such date and such conversion shall be into a number of Common Interests equal to the product of the number of Series A Preferred Units surrendered times the Series A Conversion Ratio in effect at such time on such date. All Common Interests delivered upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Units will upon delivery be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable, free of all liens and charges and not subject to any preemptive rights. Whether or not the unit certificates representing Series A Preferred Units are surrendered, such Series A Preferred Units shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights of a holder with respect to such Series A Preferred Units surrendered for conversion shall immediately terminate except the right to receive the Common Interests.
(v) Prior to the delivery of any securities which the Company shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Units, the Company shall comply with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations which require action to be taken by the Company.
(vi) The Company will pay any and all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Common Interests on conversion of the Series A Preferred Units pursuant hereto; provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of Common Interests in a name other than that of the holder of the Series A Preferred Units to be converted and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid.
14
(vii) In connection with the conversion of any Series A Preferred Units, no fractions of Common Interests shall be issued, but in lieu thereof the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to such fractional interest multiplied by the per Common Interest price to the public (less underwriting discounts and commissions) in the Company’s First Public Offering.
(viii) The Company shall not be required to honor any request to register a transfer or exchange of the Series A Preferred Units from the time notice has been given of the conversion or the right to convert to the Series A Conversion Date.
2.6. Series B Preferred Units
(a) Accrual and Payment of Dividends.
(i) The holders of Series B Preferred Units shall be entitled to receive, subject to Section 18-607 of the Act, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, cumulative cash dividends at the rate of 10% per unit per annum on the Series B Original Issue Price, compounded semi-annually.
(ii) Such dividends shall be payable in semi-annual installments in arrears commencing March 15, 2005 and thereafter on the fifteenth day of March and September (unless such day is not a Business Day in which event on the last preceding Business Day) in each such year (hereinafter referred to as a “Series B Dividend Accrual Date“). Each such dividend on Series B Preferred Units when paid shall be payable to holders of record as they appear on the books of the Company on the date established by the Board of Directors of the Company as the record date for the payment of such dividend (which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing such record date is adopted and which record date shall be not more than sixty days prior to such action). If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining holders for such purpose shall be at the close of business on the date on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating to such dividend payment. Dividends with respect to any Series B Preferred Units shall accrue (whether or not earned or declared) from the date of issuance of such units.
(iii) Such dividends on the Series B Preferred Units shall be cumulative, whether or not earned or declared, so that if at any time full cumulative dividends at the rate aforesaid on all Series B Preferred Units then outstanding to the end of the semi-annual dividend period next preceding such time shall not have been paid, the amount of the deficiency shall be paid before any sum shall be set aside for or applied by the Company to the purchase, redemption or other acquisition for value of any Series B Junior Units (defined below) (either pursuant to any applicable sinking fund requirement or otherwise) or any dividend or other distribution shall be paid or declared and set apart for payment on any Series B Junior Units (other than a dividend payable in Series B
15
Junior Units); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit the Company from repurchasing Series B Junior Units from a former employee of the Company (or a subsidiary of the Company) where such repurchase arises from the Company’s option to repurchase such units upon termination of such employee’s employment with the Company (or a subsidiary) pursuant to a written plan or written agreement between the Company and such employee or from the Company’s obligation to repurchase such units pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.12 or 2.13. As used herein, “Series B Junior Units“ means any series or class of the membership interests of the Company now or hereafter authorized or issued by the Company, including any series or class of preferred units, ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Units with respect to dividends or distributions or upon the liquidation, distribution of assets, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, including without limitation the Common Units. Accrued dividends on the Series B Preferred Units if not paid on the first or any subsequent Series B Dividend Accrual Date following accrual shall thereafter accrue additional dividends in respect thereof (the “Series B Additional Dividends“ and, together with the Series A Additional Dividends, “Additional Dividends“), compounded semi-annually, at the rate of 10% per annum on the amount of such accrued dividends.
(iv) When dividends are not paid in full upon the Series B Preferred Units and any other units ranking on a parity as to dividends with the Series B Preferred Units, all dividends paid upon Series B Preferred Units and any other units ranking on a parity as to dividends with the Series B Preferred Units shall be paid pro rata so that in all cases the amount of dividends paid per unit on the Series B Preferred Units and such other units shall bear the same ratio that accrued dividends per unit (including Series B Additional Dividends) on the Series B Preferred Units and such other units bear to each other. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, unless full cumulative dividends on the Series B Preferred Units have been paid, no dividends shall be declared or set aside for payment upon any other units of the Company ranking on a parity with the Series B Preferred Units as to dividends.
(v) A semi-annual dividend period shall commence on the day following a Series B Dividend Accrual Date and shall end on the next succeeding Series B Dividend Accrual Date.
(b) Voting Rights. Subject to the applicable provisions of any Securityholders Agreement, except as required by applicable law and except for any voting by the holders of Series B Preferred Units as part of a separate class or series pursuant to Section 2.6(e) or any other provision of this Agreement, no holder of Series B Preferred Units, as such holder, shall be entitled to vote on any matter submitted to a vote of the Members. On any matters on which the holders of the Series B Preferred Units shall be entitled to vote, they shall be entitled to one vote for each unit held. Except as otherwise required by law or as otherwise provided herein, the holders of Series B Preferred Units shall not be entitled to notice of any meeting of Members.
16
(c) Redemption Rights.
(i) If any outstanding Series B Preferred Units remain outstanding on the 14th anniversary after issuance of the Series B Preferred Units (the “Series B Mandatory Redemption Date“), then the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Series B Preferred Units shall have the right to elect to have the Company redeem all outstanding Series B Preferred Units from funds legally available therefor, in the manner provided in this Section 2.6(c), at a price per unit equal to $1,000 (the “Series B Original Issue Price“ and, together with the Series A Original Issue Price and the Common Unit Original Issue Price, the “Original Issue Price“) plus an amount per unit equal to full cumulative dividends (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon (including Series B Additional Dividends) to the Series B Mandatory Redemption Closing Date (defined below) (such redemption, a “Series B Mandatory Redemption“). Notice of such an election by holders of Series B Preferred Units (the “Series B Mandatory Redemption Notice“) shall be given by such holders to the Company at least 90 days prior to the date redemption is desired (the “Series B Mandatory Redemption Closing Date“). In the event that the Company makes an affirmative election to be treated as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes or the Company is converted to a corporation under Delaware (or other state) law, whether by operation of law, merger or otherwise, then the Company shall have the right to extend the Series B Mandatory Redemption Date to a date that is twenty years and one day past the date of the resulting issuance of the preferred stock of the resulting corporation or the date of the deemed or actual conversion (or exchange) of the Series B Preferred Units into (or for) preferred stock of the resulting corporation, whichever is applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the holders of Series B Preferred Units shall not be entitled to exercise the redemption rights described in this Section 2.6(c)(i) during the time any Series A Preferred Units remain outstanding.
(ii) The Series B Preferred Units may be redeemed from funds legally available therefor, in whole or in part, at the election of the Company, expressed by resolution of the Board of Directors, at any time and from time to time at a price per unit equal to the Series B Original Issue Price plus an amount per unit equal to full cumulative dividends (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon (including Series B Additional Dividends and all dividends which have accrued since the most recent Series B Dividend Accrual Date) to the date of such optional redemption (such redemption, a “Series B Optional Redemption“); provided that in the event that the Company makes an affirmative election to be treated as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes or the Company is converted to a corporation under Delaware (or other state) law, whether by operation of law, merger or otherwise, then the Company shall have no right to make a Series B Optional Redemption until the date that is twenty years and one day past the date of the resulting issuance of the preferred stock of the resulting corporation or the date of the deemed or actual conversion (or exchange) of the Series B Preferred Units into (or for) preferred stock of the resulting corporation, whichever is applicable. The date of any Series B Optional Redemption is hereinafter referred to as a “Series B Optional Redemption Date.”
17
(iii) The aggregate amount of any redemption pursuant to paragraph (i) or (ii) above is hereinafter referred to as the “Series B Redemption Price“ with respect to such redemption. Each of the Series B Mandatory Redemption Closing Date and the date of any Series B Optional Redemption is hereinafter referred to individually as a “Series B Redemption Date.”
(iv) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 2.6(c) shall be accomplished in the manner and with the effect as set forth in this Section 2.6(c). In the event that a Series B Mandatory Redemption Notice is given or the Company elects to make a Series B Optional Redemption, notice of the redemption of Series B Preferred Units shall be sent to each holder of record, at the close of business on the Business Day on which the Series B Mandatory Redemption Notice is given in the case of a Series B Mandatory Redemption, or on the record date for such redemption in the case of a Series B Optional Redemption, at such holder’s address as the same appears on the books of the Company not less than ten (10) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the Series B Redemption Date. Each such notice shall state (A) the Series B Redemption Date, (B) whether the redemption is a Series B Mandatory Redemption or Series B Optional Redemption, (C) the place or places where such units are to be surrendered, (D) that the holder is to surrender the units at the place of redemption and (E) that dividends on the Series B Preferred Units shall cease to accrue on the Series B Redemption Date. If less than all the outstanding Series B Preferred Units are to be redeemed, the selection of units for redemption shall be made pro rata and the notice of redemption to a holder shall state the number of Series B Preferred Units of such holder to be redeemed. The portion of the applicable Series B Redemption Price to which each holder of record of the Series B Preferred Units to be redeemed is entitled shall be delivered to the holder at the holder’s address as the same appears on the books of the Company; provided, however, that the full amount of the applicable Series B Redemption Price may instead be deposited (such deposit, the “Series B Deposit“) on or before the applicable Series B Redemption Date in trust for the account of the holders of Series B Preferred Units entitled thereto with a bank or trust company in good standing doing business in the State of New York and having capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000 (the date of such deposit being hereinafter referred to as the “Series B Date of Deposit“). Notice of the date on which, and the name and address of the bank or trust company with which, the Series B Deposit has or will be made shall be included in the notice of redemption.
(v) On and after the applicable Series B Redemption Date (unless default shall be made by the Company in providing money for the payment of the Series B Redemption Price pursuant to the notice of redemption), or if the Company shall make a Series B Deposit on or before the date specified therefor in the notice of redemption, then on and after the Series B Date of Deposit (provided notice of redemption has been duly given), all dividends on the Series B Preferred
18
Units so called for redemption shall cease to accrue, and the notice of redemption shall so state, and, notwithstanding that any certificate for Series B Preferred Units is not surrendered for cancellation, the units represented thereby shall no longer be deemed outstanding and all rights of the holders thereof of the Company shall cease and terminate, except the right to receive the Series B Redemption Price (without interest) as hereinafter provided.
(vi) At any time on or after the applicable Series B Redemption Date, or if the Company shall make a Series B Deposit prior to the Series B Redemption Date, then at any time on or after the Series B Date of Deposit, which time shall be specified by the Company in the notice of redemption and which shall not be later than the applicable Series B Redemption Date, the holders of record of the Series B Preferred Units to be redeemed shall be entitled to receive the Series B Redemption Price upon actual delivery to the Company, or in the case of a Series B Deposit, then the bank or trust company with which such Series B Deposit shall be made, of certificates for the units to be redeemed, such certificates, if required, to be duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by proper instruments of assignment and transfer duly endorsed in blank. The making of such delivery to the Company or any such bank or trust company (if applicable) shall not relieve the Company of liability for payment of the Series B Redemption Price.
(vii) Any Series B Deposit funds which remain unclaimed by the holders of such Series B Preferred Units at the end of two (2) years after the Series B Redemption Date shall be paid by the bank or trust company to the Company, which shall thereafter, to the extent of the money so repaid, be liable for the payment of the Series B Redemption Price. Any interest accrued on any Series B Deposit shall be paid to the Company from time to time.
(viii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the amounts paid to each holder of Series B Preferred Units under this Section 2.6(c) shall not be in excess of the positive balance in the Series B Preferred Unit Capital Account of such holder (after taking into account any allocation of income, gain, loss or deductions pursuant to Article IV of this Agreement).
(d) Preference Rights on Liquidation.
(i) In the event that the Company shall be liquidated, dissolved or wound up, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, after all creditors of the Company shall have been paid in full and the holders of Series A Preferred Units shall have been paid in full pursuant to Section 2.5(d), the holders of the Series B Preferred Units shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company legally available for distribution to its members, whether from capital, surplus or earnings, before any amount shall be paid to the holders of any Series B Junior Units, an amount equal to the Series B Original Issue Price in cash per unit plus an amount equal to full cumulative dividends (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon (including Series B Additional Dividends) to the date of final distribution, and no more. If upon any voluntary or involuntary
19

The number of Common Interests deliverable upon conversion of a Series B Preferred Unit, adjusted as hereinafter provided, is referred to herein as the “Conversion Ratio.” The Series B Conversion Ratio is an amount equal to the Series B Original Issue Price per Series B Preferred Unit plus an amount per Series B Preferred Unit equal to full cumulative dividends (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon (including Series B Additional Dividends and all dividends which have accrued since the most recent Series B Dividend Accrual Date) to the date of the consummation of the First Public Offering (the “Series B Conversion Date“), divided by the per Common Interest price to the public (less underwriting discounts and commissions) for Common Interests in the Company’s First Public Offering. If less than all the Series B Preferred Units are to be converted, the selection of Series B Preferred Units to be converted shall be pro rata.
(ii) If the Company does not elect to convert all of the Series B Preferred Units into Common Interests pursuant to paragraph (i), each holder of Series B Preferred Units may convert such holder’s Series B Preferred Units, at such holder’s option upon or concurrently with the Company’s First Public Offering, in whole or in part, into fully paid and non-assessable Common Interests. The number of Common Interests deliverable upon conversion of a Series B Preferred Unit, adjusted as hereinafter provided, shall equal the Series B Conversion Ratio.
(h) Conversion Procedure.
(i) Any conversion pursuant to paragraph (g) shall be accomplished in the manner and with the effect as set forth in this paragraph (h).
21
(ii) Notice of the conversion of Series B Preferred Units pursuant to paragraph (g)(i) shall be given by first class mail to each holder of record on the record date for such conversion at such holder’s address as the same appears on the books of the Company not less than fifteen (15) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the Series B Conversion Date. Each such notice shall state: (A) in the case of any conversion, whether all or less than all the outstanding Series B Preferred Units are to be converted and the total number of such Series B Preferred Units being converted, (B) the number of Series B Preferred Units held by the holder that the Company will convert, (C) the Series B Conversion Date and the procedure pursuant to which the price will be determined, at which such price Series B Preferred Units will be converted, (D) that the holder is to surrender to the Company, in the manner and at the place designated, its certificates representing the Series B Preferred Units to be converted, (E) that dividends on the Series B Preferred Units to be converted will cease to accrue on such Series B Conversion Date and (F) that the conversion will not occur without further notice unless the Series B Conversion Date occurs within sixty (60) days of the date of such notice.

Each such notice shall state: (A) that each holder of Series B Preferred Units may convert all or any portion of such holder’s Series B Preferred Units in connection with the Company’s First Public Offering upon written notice to the Company within fifteen (15) days of the date of the Company’s notice, (B) the Series B Conversion Date and the procedure pursuant to which the price will be determined, at which such price the Series B Preferred Units will be converted if such holder decides to convert any Series B Preferred Units, (C) that if such holder decides to convert any Series B Preferred Units, the holder is to surrender to the Company, in the manner and at the place designated, its certificates representing the Series B Preferred Units to be converted, (E) that if such holder decides to convert any Series B Preferred Units, dividends on the Series B Preferred Units to be converted will cease to accrue on such Series B Conversion Date and (F) that the conversion will not occur without further notice unless the Series B Conversion Date occurs within sixty (60) days of the date of such notice. If a holder of Series B Preferred Units elects to convert such holder’s Series B Preferred Units, such holder shall give notice to the Company of such holder’s election to convert within fifteen (15) days of the date of the Company’s notice. Each notice by a converting holder shall (i) state whether all or less than all the outstanding Series B Preferred Units held by such holder are to be converted and the total number of such Series B Preferred Units being converted and (ii) be accompanied by the unit certificate or certificates, if any, representing the Series B Preferred Units to be converted.
22
(iv) The holder of the Series B Preferred Units to be converted shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing such Series B Preferred Units at the office of the Company. Unless the Common Interests issuable on conversion are to be issued in the same name as the name in which such Series B Preferred Units are registered, each Series B Preferred Unit surrendered for conversion shall be accompanied by instruments of transfer, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the holder or the holder’s duly authorized attorney and an amount sufficient to pay any transfer or similar tax. As promptly as practicable after the surrender by the holder of the certificates for Series B Preferred Units as aforesaid, the Company shall issue and shall deliver to such holder, or on the holder’s written order to the holder’s transferee, a certificate or certificates for the whole number of Common Interests issuable upon the conversion of such Series B Preferred Units in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (g). If less than all the Series B Preferred Units represented by one unit certificate are to be converted, the Company shall issue a new unit certificate for the Series B Preferred Units not converted. The conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the Series B Conversion Date, and the person in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Common Interests shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Common Interests represented thereby at such time on such date and such conversion shall be into a number of Common Interests equal to the product of the number of Series B Preferred Units surrendered times the Series B Conversion Ratio in effect at such time on such date. All Common Interests delivered upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Units will upon delivery be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable, free of all liens and charges and not subject to any preemptive rights. Whether or not the unit certificates representing Series B Preferred Units are surrendered, such Series B Preferred Units shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights of a holder with respect to such Series B Preferred Units surrendered for conversion shall immediately terminate except the right to receive the Common Interests.
(v) Prior to the delivery of any securities which the Company shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Units, the Company shall comply with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations which require action to be taken by the Company.
(vi) The Company will pay any and all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Common Interests on conversion of the Series B Preferred Units pursuant hereto; provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of Common Interests in a name other than that of the holder of the Series B Preferred Units to be converted and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid.
23
(vii) In connection with the conversion of any Series B Preferred Units, no fractions of Common Interests shall be issued, but in lieu thereof the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to such fractional interest multiplied by the per Common Interest price to the public (less underwriting discounts and commissions) in the Company’s First Public Offering.
(viii) The Company shall not be required to honor any request to register a transfer or exchange of the Series B Preferred Units from the time notice has been given of the conversion or the right to convert to the Series B Conversion Date.

(i) Limitation on Losses. The Losses allocated to any Member pursuant to Section 4.1(b) of this Agreement shall not exceed the maximum amount of Losses that can be so allocated without causing such person to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Fiscal Year. In the event some, but not all, of the Members would have Adjusted Capital Account Deficits as a consequence of an allocation of Losses pursuant to Section 4.1(b), the limitation set forth in this Section 4.1(c)(i) shall be applied on a Member-by-Member basis so as to allocate the maximum permissible Losses to each Member under Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).
(ii) Qualified Income Allocation. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Reg. §§ 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or l.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to each such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, the deficit capital account balance of such Member as promptly as possible, provided that, an allocation pursuant to this Section 4.1(c)(ii) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Member would have a deficit capital account balance after all other allocations provided for in this Section 4.1 have been tentatively made as if this Section 4.1(c)(ii) were not in this Agreement.
(iii) Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any fiscal year which is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount such Member is obligated to restore pursuant to this Agreement, if any, and (ii) the amount such Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Reg. §§ 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5),
33
each such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that, an allocation pursuant to this Section 4.1(c)(iii) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Section 4.1 have been tentatively made as if this Section 4.1(c)(iii) was not in the Agreement.
(iv) Impact of Company Indebtedness. In the event that the Company incurs indebtedness in any material amount, then the allocation provisions set forth herein shall be deemed to be further modified so as to reflect inclusion of a Company and, if applicable, Member minimum gain chargeback consistent with that set forth in Reg. §§ 1.704-2(f) and (i)(4), which allocations shall be applied before application of the other special allocation provisions set forth in this Section 4.1(c).
(v) Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in this Section 4.1(c) (the “Regulatory Allocations“) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704(b). It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction pursuant to this Section 4.1(c)(v). Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.1 (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Company shall 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 account balance such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of the Agreement and all Company items were allocated pursuant to Sections 4.1(a) (other than Section 4.1(c)).
(d) Transfers of Units. All items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit allocable to any Membership Interest that may have been transferred or otherwise disposed of shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee based on the percentage of the calendar year during which each was recognized as owning that Membership Interest, without regard to the results of Company operations during any particular portion of that calendar year and without regard to whether cash distributions were made to the transferor or the transferee during that calendar year; provided, however, that this allocation must be made in accordance with a method permissible under Section 706 of the Code and the regulations thereunder.
(e) Section 704(c) Allocations. Solely for tax purposes, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company or for which the adjusted tax basis and book value differ shall be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between adjusted tax basis and book value. The allocations provided in this Section 4.1 are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 704 of the Code and Treasury Regulations thereunder and shall be interpreted (or modified, to the extent necessary) in such manner as is consistent with such requirements, as determined by the
34
Company’s Tax Matters Partner (defined below). For purposes of allocations under Section 704(c) of the Code, the Company shall use the remedial allocation method, as described in Reg. § 1.704-3(d).
(f) Definitions. The following capitalized terms and phrases used in this Article IV (or otherwise in this Agreement) have the following meanings:
(i) “Adjusted Capital Account Deficit“ means, with respect to any Member, the deficit balance, if any, in such Member’s capital account as of the end of the relevant fiscal year, after giving effect to the following adjustments:
(1) Credit to such capital account any amounts which such Member is obligated to restore or is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Reg. §§ 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5); and

The foregoing definition of Adjusted Capital Account Deficit is intended to comply with the provisions of Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

If such meeting is adjourned by the Members, such time and place shall be determined by a vote of the holders of a Required Interest and no notice of the adjourned meeting need be given if such time and place are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. Upon the resumption of such adjourned meeting, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called.
7.7. Conversion. Subject to the applicable provisions of any Securityholders Agreement, the Company may convert to a corporation, business trust or association, a general partnership or a limited partnership, provided that such conversion is approved by the Board of Directors and authorized by the affirmative vote of the Required Interest taken at a special meeting of Members duly called for purposes of considering such conversion. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any Securityholders Agreement, upon the conversion of the Company into a corporation, whether by operation of law, merger, or otherwise, or upon an exchange of the Common Units, Series A Preferred Units or Series B Preferred Units for shares of a corporation, any equity securities received by the holders of such Units in consideration for such Units shall be limited to stock which is not treated as preferred stock for U.S. Federal income tax purposes (and, if the conversion is by reason of the Company’s affirmative election to be treated as a corporation for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, the Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units will be converted into Common Interests prior to the effective date of such election or otherwise amended in such a manner that none of the equity securities of the converted entity received by the holders of such Units for such Units would be treated as preferred stock for U.S. Federal income tax purposes).
7.8. Merger and Consolidation. Subject to the applicable provisions of any Securityholders Agreement, pursuant to an agreement of merger or consolidation, the Company may merge or consolidate with or into one or more limited liability companies or one or more other business entities (as defined in the Act) provided that such merger or consolidation is approved the Board of Directors and authorized by the affirmative vote of the Required Interest taken at a special meeting of Members duly called for purposes of considering such merger or consolidation.
7.9. Sale of Assets. Subject to the applicable provisions of any Securityholders Agreement, the Company may sell, lease or exchange all or substantially all of its property and assets upon such terms and conditions and for such consideration as the Board of Directors deems expedient and for the best interests of the Company, provided that such sale, lease or exchanges is approved by the Board of Directors and authorized by a resolution adopted by the Required Interest at a special meeting duly called for purposes of considering such sale, lease or exchange.

ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNIFICATION
8.1. Right to Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify any person who was or is party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding“), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Director or Officer of the Company or a director or officer of a constituent Person in a consolidation or merger, or is or was serving at the request of the Company or a constituent Person absorbed in a consolidation or merger, as a director or officer of another Person, or is or was a Director or Officer of the Company serving at its request as an administrator, trustee or other fiduciary of one or more of the employee benefit plans of the Company or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liability and loss actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection with such Proceeding, whether or not the indemnified liability arises or arose from any threatened, pending or completed Proceeding by or in the right of the Company, except to the extent that such indemnification is prohibited by applicable law.
8.2. Advance of Expenses. Expenses incurred by a Director or Officer of the Company in defending a Proceeding shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding subject to the provisions of any applicable law.
8.3. Procedure for Determining Permissibility. To determine whether any indemnification or advance of expenses under this Article VIII is permissible, the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Directors not parties to such Proceeding may, and on request of any person seeking indemnification or advance of expenses shall be required to, determine in each case whether the applicable standards in any applicable statute have been met, or such determination shall be made by independent legal counsel if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested Directors so directs, provided that, if there has been a change in control of the Company between the time of the action or failure to act giving rise to the claim for indemnification or advance of expenses and the time such claim is made, at the option of the person seeking indemnification or advance of expenses, the permissibility of indemnification or advance of expenses shall be determined by independent legal counsel. The reasonable expenses of any Director or Officer in prosecuting a successful claim for indemnification, and the fees and expenses of any special legal counsel engaged to determine permissibility of indemnification or advance of expenses, shall be borne by the Company. No Member shall be obligated to make a Capital Contribution to satisfy any indemnification claim.
8.4. Contractual Obligation. The obligations of the Company to indemnify a Member, Director or Officer under this Article VIII, including the duty to advance expenses, shall be considered a contract between the Company and such Director or Officer, and no modification or repeal of any provision of this Article VIII shall affect, to the detriment of the Director or Officer, such obligations of the Company in connection with a claim based on any act or failure to act occurring before such modification or repeal.
8.5. Indemnification Not Exclusive; Inuring of Benefit. The indemnification and advance of expenses provided by this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
45
right to which one indemnified may be entitled under any statute, provision of the Certificate, agreement, vote of Members or disinterested Directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of any such person.
8.6. Insurance and Other Indemnification. The Board of Directors shall have the power to (i) authorize the Company to purchase and maintain, at the Company’s expense, insurance on behalf of the Company and on behalf of others to the extent that power to do so has not been prohibited by statute, (ii) create any fund of any nature, whether or not under the control of a trustee, or otherwise secure any of its indemnification obligations, and (iii) give other indemnification to the extent permitted by statute.
ARTICLE IX
TAXES
9.1. Tax Returns. The Board of Directors shall cause the Company to prepare and file all necessary U.S. Federal, state, local and foreign tax returns for the Company including making the elections described in Section 9.2. Each Member shall furnish to the Company all pertinent information (including without limitation form X-0XXX, X-0XXX or W-8EXP, as applicable) in its possession relating to Company operations that is necessary to enable the Company’s tax returns to be prepared and filed. Such tax returns will duly reflect the allocation of income, gain, loss and deduction set forth in Article IV of this Agreement.
9.2. Tax Elections. To the extent permitted by applicable tax law, the Company shall make the following elections on the appropriate tax returns:
(a) to adopt the fiscal year ending December 31 as the Company’s taxable year pursuant to Section 444 of the Code (and the Company shall make the “required payments” pursuant to Section 7519 of the Code in connection with such election); and
(b) to adopt the accrual method of accounting and to keep the Company’s books and records on the accrual basis method.
Neither the Company nor any Director or Member may make an election for the Company to be excluded from the application of the provisions of subchapter K of chapter 1 of subtitle A of the Code or any similar provisions of applicable state law, and no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to sanction or approve such an election. The Company will cause its subsidiaries to timely make all appropriate “disregarded entity” elections on IRS Form 8832.
9.3. Tax Allocations and Reports. The Company shall take reasonable efforts so that within three calendar months after the end of each fiscal year, the Board of Directors shall cause the Company to furnish each Member an Internal Revenue Service Form K-1, Form 5471 and any similar form required for the filing of state or local income tax returns for such Member for such fiscal year, which forms will duly reflect the allocation of income, gain, loss and deduction set forth in Article IV of this Agreement. Upon the written request of any such Member and at the expense of such Member, the Company will use reasonable efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered any additional information necessary for the preparation of any federal, state, local and foreign income tax return which must be filed by such Member.
46
(a) The Tax Matters Partner will determine whether to make or revoke any available election pursuant to the Code. Each Member will, upon request, supply the information necessary to give proper effect to any such election.
(b) The Board of Directors shall designate a Member to act as the “Tax Matters Partner“ (as defined in Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code) in accordance with Sections 6221 through 6233 of the Code. Upon such designation, the Tax Matters Partner shall be authorized and required to represent the Company (at the Company’s expense) in connection with all examinations of the Company’s affairs by tax authorities, including resulting administrative and judicial proceedings, and to expend Company funds for professional services and costs associated therewith; provided that, the Tax Matters Partner may be removed and replaced by, and shall act in such capacity at the direction of, the Board of Directors. Each Member agrees to cooperate with the Tax Matters Partner and to do or refrain from doing any or all things reasonably requested by the Tax Matters Partner with respect to the conduct of such proceedings. Subject to the foregoing proviso, the Tax Matters Partner will have reasonable discretion to determine whether the Company (either on its own behalf or on behalf of the Members) will contest or continue to contest any tax deficiencies assessed or proposed to be assessed by any taxing authority. Any deficiency for taxes imposed on any Member (including penalties, additions to tax or interest imposed with respect to such taxes) will be paid by such Member, and if paid by the Company, will be recoverable from such Member (including by offset against distributions otherwise payable to such Member). Each Director will be provided with a copy of all tax returns filed by the Company and the Tax Matters Partner will consult with and keep the Board of Directors fully informed about the status of all material tax examinations, controversies and proceedings.
9.4. Partnership for U.S. Federal Tax Purposes. Prior to the effective time of an affirmative election for the Company to be treated as a corporation for U.S. Federal income tax purposes or prior to the time the Company is converted to a corporation under Delaware (or other state) law, whether by operation of law, merger, or otherwise (a) for U.S. Federal tax purposes the parties agree to treat the Company as a partnership and to treat all Units as interests in such partnership and no party shall take any position inconsistent with this characterization in any tax return or otherwise, (b) the Company shall not engage in, and shall not invest in any partnership or entity treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. Federal income tax purposes which engages in any activities which constitute the conduct of a trade or business within the meaning of Section 864(b) of the Code or would otherwise require organizations exempt from U.S. Federal income tax under Sections 401(a) or 501(c) of the Code to recognize unrelated business taxable income as defined under Section 512 of the Code, and (c) the Company shall not take any action that would cause an organization exempt from U.S. Federal income tax under Section 401(a) or 501(c) of the Code to incur unrelated debt financed income as defined in Section 514 of the Code.
ARTICLE X
BOOKS, RECORDS, REPORTS, AND BANK ACCOUNTS
10.1. Books. The Company shall maintain complete and accurate books of account of the Company’s affairs at the Company’s principal office, which books shall be open to inspection by any Member (or its authorized representative) to the extent required by the Act.
47
10.2. Company Funds. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement or with the approval of the Board of Directors, the Company shall not pay to or use for, the benefit of any Member (except in any Member’s capacity as a Director, employee or independent contractor of the Company), funds, assets, credit, or other resources of any kind or description of the Company. Funds of the Company shall (i) be deposited only in the accounts of the Company in the Company’s name, (ii) not be commingled with funds of any Member, and (iii) be withdrawn only upon such signature or signatures as may be designated in writing from time to time by the Board of Directors.
ARTICLE XI
DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION, AND TERMINATION
11.1. Dissolution. The Company shall dissolve and its affairs shall be wound up on the first to occur of the following:
(a) the decision of the Board of Directors to dissolve and liquidate the Company;
(b) the written consent of Members owning a majority of the Common Units; and
(c) entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under Section 18-802 of the Act.
The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of Members in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The death, insanity, retirement, resignation, expulsion, bankruptcy or dissolution of a Member or the occurrence of an event that terminates the continued membership of a Member in the Company, shall not cause the Company to be dissolved and its affairs wound up so long as the Company at all times has at least one Member. Upon the occurrence of any such event, the business of the Company shall be continued without dissolution.
11.2. Liquidation and Termination
(a) On dissolution of the Company, the Directors who have not wrongfully dissolved the Company shall act as liquidator or may appoint one or more Members as liquidator. The liquidator shall wind up the affairs of the Company as provided in the Act and shall have all the powers set forth in the Act. The costs of liquidation shall be a Company expense.
(b) Upon the winding up of the Company, the assets of the Company shall first be distributed to creditors, including Members and Directors who are creditors, to the extent otherwise permitted by applicable law, in satisfaction of liabilities of the Company (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof) other than liabilities for which reasonable provision for payment has been made.
(c) Any assets remaining after the Company’s liabilities and obligations have been paid (or reasonable provision for the payment thereof has been made) shall be distributed to
48
the Members in accordance with the positive capital account balances of the Members, as determined after taking into account all capital account adjustments for the Company’s taxable year during which such liquidation occurs (other than those made as a result of this Section), by the end of such taxable year or, if later, within 90 days after the date of such liquidation, except as permitted by Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b).
(d) If, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, any assets of the Company are distributed in-kind to the Members, such assets shall be valued on the basis of the fair market value thereof as determined by the Board of Directors in their reasonable discretion on the date of distribution. Without limiting the Board of Directors’ discretion to make such a valuation or requiring that any such appraisal be made, the valuation of any asset by the Board of Directors on the basis of the determination of its fair market value by an independent appraiser shall be deemed to be a reasonable value for such asset and a reasonable exercise of such discretion. Upon any such in-kind distribution to a Member, the capital accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to reflect the manner in which the unrealized income, gain, loss or deduction inherent in such property (that has not previously been reflected in the Members’ capital accounts) would be allocated among the Members if there had been a taxable disposition of such property at its fair market value on the date of distribution. The capital accounts of the Members receiving a distribution in-kind shall then be reduced by the fair market value of the property distribution.
(e) Nothing in this Article XI shall be construed to extend the time period prescribed under Section 11.2(c) above and Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b) for making liquidating distributions of the Company’s assets. If the liquidator deems it impracticable to cause the Company to make distributions of the liquidating proceeds to the Members within the time period described under Reg. § 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(b), the liquidator may make any arrangement that is considered for federal income tax purposes to effectuate liquidating distributions of all of the Company’s assets to the Members within the time period prescribed in such regulation and that will permit the sale of the non-cash assets considered so distributed in a manner that gives effect, to the extent possible, to the intent of the preceding provisions of this Article XI.
11.3. Deficit Capital Accounts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, and notwithstanding any custom or rule of law to the contrary, upon dissolution of the Company, the deficit, if any, in the capital account of any Member, including any deficit that results from or is attributable to deductions and losses of the Company (including non-cash items such as depreciation) or distributions of assets pursuant to this Agreement to all Members, shall not be an asset of the Company and such Members shall not be obligated to contribute such amount to the Company to bring the balance of such Member’s capital account to zero.
11.4. Certificate of Cancellation. On the completion of the winding up of the Company following its dissolution, the Company is terminated, and the Board of Directors (or such other person or persons as the Act may require or permit) shall file a Certificate of Cancellation with the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and cancel any other filings made pursuant to Section 1.5.
49
ARTICLE XII
GENERAL PROVISIONS

12.2. Notices. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, all notices, requests, or consents provided for or permitted to be sent under this Agreement must be in writing and must be sent by registered mail, addressed to the recipient, postage paid, or by delivering that writing to the recipient in person, by internationally recognized express courier, or by facsimile transmission; and a notice, request, or consent sent under this Agreement is effective on receipt by the person to receive it. A notice, request or consent shall be deemed received when delivered if personally delivered, after a “good transmission” receipt is received, if sent via facsimile, or otherwise on the date of receipt by the recipient thereof. All notices, requests, and consents to be sent to a Member must be sent to or made at the address or facsimile number ascribed to that Member on the books of the Company or such other address or facsimile number as that Member may specify by notice to the Company and the other Members. Any notice, request, or consent to the Company must be sent to the Company at its principal office. Whenever any notice is required to be sent by law, the Certificate or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.
12.3. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties on the date hereof with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings, contracts or agreements among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, whether oral or written.
12.4. Effect of Waiver or Consent. The failure of a Member to insist on the strict performance of any covenant or duty required by the Agreement, or to pursue any remedy under the Agreement, shall not constitute a waiver of the breach or the remedy.
12.5. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified, or any provision hereof may be waived, provided that such amendment, modification or waiver is set forth in a writing executed by (i) the Company and (ii) the Members holding a majority of the outstanding Common Units on a fully diluted basis, except (a) as provided in Sections 2.5(e) and 2.6(e) and (b) an amendment that materially and adversely affects any Member differently from any other Member shall be effective only if such Member executes such amendment. No course of dealing between or among any Persons having any interest in this Agreement will be deemed effective to modify, amend or discharge any part of this Agreement or any rights or obligations of any Person under or by reason of this Agreement.
12.6. Binding Act. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement is binding on and inures to the benefit of the Members and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns.
50
12.7. Governing Law. All issues and questions concerning the application, construction, validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and the Act, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.
12.8. Consent to Exclusive Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any agreement, certificate or other instrument entered into in contemplation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any matters arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or such other agreement, certificate or instrument, and any action for the enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, shall be brought exclusively in the Chancery Court of New Castle County, Delaware or the courts of the United States of America for the District of Delaware, unless the parties to any such action or dispute mutually agree to waive this provision. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or by recognized express carrier or delivery service, to the applicable party at his, her or its address referred to herein. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives any objection which he, she or it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforementioned actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, or any related agreement, certificate or instrument referred to above, brought in the courts referred to above and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in any inconvenient forum. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
12.9. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. The Members shall negotiate in good faith to replace any provision so held to be invalid or unenforceable so as to implement most effectively the transactions contemplated by such provision in accordance with the original intent of the Members signatory hereto.
12.10. Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each Member shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and those transactions.

51
12.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signing parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and constitute the same instrument.
12.13. Construction. Whenever the context requires, the gender of all words used in this Agreement includes the masculine, feminine and neuter. All references to Articles and Sections refer to Articles and Sections of this Agreement, and all references to Exhibits are to Exhibits attached hereto, each of which is made a part hereof for all purposes.
