The Members shall in good faith meet to discuss and resolve the Major Decision in question. If, within 30 days of the delivery of a Major Dispute Notice, the Members are still unable to agree on the Major Decision in question, then there shall exist a Major Dispute hereunder.

4.3 Budgeting and Business Plan. On or before November 15 of each year, Managing Member shall prepare and submit to the other Member with respect to the upcoming calendar year a draft:

4.3.1 operating budget (the “Operating Budget”) for the Company and the Owner Entities (subject to any approval rights of the Minority Interest Holders in respect of the Part Owned Properties), setting forth by line item the estimated rents, revenues and other receipts of the Company and the Owner Entities, and the operating expenses and capital items for the Company and each Owner Entity, including anticipated reserves; and

Waterford Member and Investor Member will promptly consider any proposed annual Business Plan and Operating Budget or amendment thereto. The failure of Waterford Member and Investor Member to approve unanimously an annual Operating Budget and Business Plan within 30 days after its presentation to them will constitute a Major Dispute under Section 4.2.3; however, the Members shall work in good faith to approve an Operating Budget and Business Plan in order to avoid a Major Dispute. Upon approval and adoption of an Operating Budget and Business Plan, the previously effective annual Operating Budget and Business Plan shall be completely superseded and no longer effective.

Attached hereto as Exhibit 4.3 are the agreed Business Plan and Operating Budget for the remainder of calendar year 2005.

5.	DISTRIBUTIONS

5.1 Distributions Generally. Distributions of Company assets shall be made only in accordance with this Article and Article 10.

5.2	Distributions of Net Cash Flow and Capital Proceeds.

5.2.1 From time to time, but not less often than annually with respect to Net Cash Flow and within 30 days after a Capital Transaction with respect to Capital Proceeds, Managing Member shall determine the amount, if any, of Distributable Funds (hereinafter defined) available for distribution to Members in accordance with this Section. Distributable Funds shall then be distributed to the Members in accordance with the provisions of this Article. “Distributable Funds” shall mean Net Cash Flow on hand (after repayment of any outstanding Member Loans) and Capital Proceeds actually received.

5.2.2 Distributable Funds with respect to any Property constituting Net Cash Flow shall be distributed to the Members in the following order of priority:

A. first, to Investor Class A Member and Investor Class B Member (in proportion to the relative Capital Sharing Ratios as between the Investor Class A Member and Investor Class B Member) in the amount of any unpaid balance in that Member’s Preferred Return Account with respect to all Property;

B. then, to Waterford Member in the amount of any unpaid balance in that Member’s Preferred Return Account with respect to all Property; and

C. any excess, to the Members in accordance with their Residual Sharing Ratios with respect to such Property.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions pursuant to Sections 5.2.2.A and 5.2.2.B, shall be made only to the extent such unreturned balance has accrued during the Fiscal Year in which such distribution is made, it being understood that for the purposes of this Section 5.2, only, each Member’s Preferred Return Account balance shall be deemed to be $0 at the commencement of each Fiscal Year, regardless of all amounts distributed in, or Preferred Return Account balances accrued with respect to, prior periods.

5.2.3 Distributable Funds with respect to any Property constituting Capital Proceeds shall be distributed to the Members in the following order of priority:

A. first, to Investor Class A Member or Investor Class B Member, as appropriate, the return of its Capital Contributions in respect of such Property;

B. then, to Waterford Class Member, the return of its Capital Contributions in respect of such Property;

C. then, to Investor Class A Member or Investor Class B Member, in the amount of 8.5% multiplied by the Capital Contributions made by such Member, attributed solely to the Property generating the relevant Capital Proceeds and calculated without regard to distributions made in accordance with Section 5.2.2;

D. then, to Waterford Member, in the amount of 8.5% multiplied by the Capital Contributions made by such Member, attributed solely to the Property generating the relevant Capital Proceeds and calculated without regard to distributions made in accordance with Section 5.2.2; and

E. last, to the Members in accordance with their Residual Sharing Ratios.

5.2.4 Investor Member and Waterford Member (acting together) shall determine using reasonable judgment whether, and to what extent, Net Cash Flow and Capital Proceeds shall be distributed or shall be set aside and retained in a working capital reserve or capital expenditure reserve, or reserves for funds to be used for the payment or reduction of any Company or Owner Entity indebtedness. At such time as the Net Cash Flow is finally determined with respect to a Company fiscal year, the Company shall distribute to the Members in accordance with Section 5.2.2, the Members’ respective undistributed shares, if any, of the Company’s actual Net Cash Flow for such fiscal year, and if advance distributions to a Member exceed such Member’s distributable share of such actual Net Cash Flow for such fiscal year, as finally determined, such Member shall immediately repay to the Company the amount of such excess, and any amounts not so repaid by a Member may be deducted from the next distributions of Net Cash Flow or Capital Proceeds distributable to such Member.

5.2.5 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make cash distributions to the Members out of Net Cash Flow in amounts intended to enable (and at such times as necessary to enable) the Members to discharge their United States federal, state and local income tax liabilities arising from the allocations made pursuant to Article 6 (a “Tax Liability Distribution”). The amount of any such Tax Liability Distribution shall be determined by Managing Member in its discretion, taking into account (a) the maximum combined United States and [Connecticut] tax rate applicable to individuals or corporations (whichever is higher) on ordinary income and net short-term capital gain or on net long-term capital gain, as applicable, and taking into account the deductibility of state and local income taxes for United States federal income tax purposes (and the deductibility of local income taxes for state income tax purposes, if applicable), and (b) the amounts so allocated pursuant to Article 6 to each Member, and otherwise based on such reasonable assumptions as Managing Member determines in good faith to be appropriate. Tax Liability Distributions shall be made to the Members pro rata in accordance with their respective allocation of the corresponding item(s) of gain or income, and shall be treated as advances with respect to amounts otherwise to be received by such Members pursuant to this Section 5.2.

5.2.6 Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 5.2.2 to the contrary, any Incentive Fees (as defined in the Management Agreement) payable to the Property Manager in accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement shall be paid to Manager immediately prior to distributions under Sections 5.2.2.C. [PAYMENT AND PAYMENT MECHANISM TO BE REVISED TO CONFORM WITH STRUCTURE, AS AGREED BY THE PARTIES IN GOOD FAITH.]

5.3 Distributions Upon Final Liquidation. Upon a final liquidation of the Company in accordance with Article 10, all of the Company’s assets shall be distributed as set forth in Section 10.3.

5.4 The Right to Withhold. The Company shall withhold from any distribution such amounts as are required to be withheld by the laws of any taxing jurisdiction (or shall pay on behalf of or with respect to such Member any taxes that Managing Member or Tax Matters Member determines that the Company is required to pay with respect to any amount allocable to such Member pursuant to this Agreement). Such withheld amounts shall be treated as amounts distributed to the respective Members on whose account the withholding was imposed. Any amount paid on behalf of or with respect to a Member pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall constitute a loan by the Company to such Member, which loan such Member shall repay within 15 days after notice from the Company that such payment must be made unless (i) the Company withholds such payment from a distribution that would otherwise be made to the Member or (ii) all Members jointly determine that such payment may be satisfied out of Net Cash Flow that would, but for such payment, be distributed to the Member. Each Member hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Company a security interest in such Member's obligation to pay to the Company any amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 5.4. Any amounts payable by a Member hereunder shall bear interest at the prime rate as published from time to time in the Wall Street Journal (but not higher than the maximum lawful rate from the time such amount is due (i.e., 15 days after demand) until such amount is paid in full. Each Member shall take such actions as the Company shall request in order to perfect or enforce the security interest created hereunder. A Member's obligation hereunder shall survive the dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company.

6.	ALLOCATIONS

6.1 In General. Profits and Losses of the Company shall be determined and allocated with respect to each fiscal year of the Company as of the end of such year, and at such times as the Gross Asset Value of any asset is adjusted pursuant to the definition of Gross Asset Value. Subject to the other provisions of this Article, an allocation to a Member of a share of Profits or Losses shall be treated as an allocation of the same share of each item of income, gain, loss and deduction that is taken into account in computing Profits or Losses.

6.2 Allocations. Except as otherwise provided in this Article, Profits and Losses of the Company shall be allocated for each fiscal year or other period to the Members such that the positive balance of the Adjusted Capital Account of each Member immediately following such allocation is, as closely as possible, equal (proportionately) to the amount of the distributions that would be made to such Member pursuant to Section 5.2.3 if the Company were dissolved, its affairs wound up and all of its assets sold for an amount equal to their Gross Asset Value, all Company liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the Gross Asset Value of the assets securing such liability) and the remaining cash was distributed in accordance with the priority set forth in Section 5.2.3.

6.3 Limitation on Allocation of Losses. The Losses allocated to any Member pursuant to Section 6.2 shall not exceed the maximum amount of Losses that can be so allocated without causing such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any fiscal year. All Losses in excess of the limitation set forth in this Section 6.3 shall be allocated to the other Members, pro rata to the allocation of other Losses to such Members, subject to the limitations of this Section 6.3.

6.4 Additional Allocation Provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article (other than Section 6.3), the special allocations required by this Section 6.4 shall be made in the following order of priority:

6.4.1

Regulatory Allocations.

A. If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain or Member Minimum Gain during any fiscal year, the Members shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, for subsequent years) in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) or Section 1.704-2(i)(4), as applicable. It is intended that this Section 6.4.1.A qualify and be construed as a “minimum gain chargeback” and a “chargeback of member nonrecourse debt minimum gain” within the meaning of such Regulations, which shall be controlling in the event of a conflict between such Regulations and this Section 6.4.1.A.

B. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be specially allocated to the Member(s) who bear the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such deductions are attributable.

C. If any Member unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Company income and gain shall be allocated, in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), to the Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by such Regulation, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of the Member as quickly as possible. It is intended that this Section 6.4.1.C qualify and be construed as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), which shall be controlling in the event of a conflict between such Regulation and this Section 6.4.1.C.

6.4.2 The allocations set forth in Section 6.3, Sections 6.4.1.A, B and C (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain regulatory requirements, including, the requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2, the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Member shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.

6.4.3 For purposes of determining a Member’s proportional share of the Company’s “excess nonrecourse liabilities” with respect to any Property within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), each Member’s interest in Profits shall be such Member’s Capital Sharing Ratio with respect to such Property.

6.4.4 In the event that the Code or any Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder require allocations of items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit different from those set forth in this Agreement, upon the advice of the Company’s counsel or accountants, Managing Member is hereby authorized to make new allocations in reliance upon the Code, the Treasury Regulations and such advice of the Company’s counsel or accountants, such new allocations shall be deemed to be made pursuant to the fiduciary obligation of Managing Member to the Company and the Non-Managing Members, and no such new allocation shall give rise to any claim or cause of action by any Non-Managing Member.

6.4.5 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 6, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to property contributed to the Company by a Member shall be allocated among the Members, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-3(b), so as to take account of the variation, if any, between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company and its initial Gross Asset Value (computed in accordance with the definition of Gross Asset Value). In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to clause B of the definition thereof, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of the variation, if any, between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Regulations, consistent with the requirements of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) of the Regulations. Allocations pursuant to this Section 6.4.5 are solely for purposes of federal, state and local income taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other tax items or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

10.	DISSOLUTION AND WINDING UP

10.1 Dissolution and Distributions of Property. Except for dissolution expressly permitted by this Agreement, no Member shall have the right to, and each Member hereby agrees that it shall not (and hereby irrevocably waives any right to), seek to dissolve or cause the dissolution of the Company or to seek to cause a partial or whole distribution or sale of the Property or a partition of the Company or any of its assets, whether by court action or otherwise, it being agreed that any actual or attempted partition, dissolution, distribution or sale would cause a substantial hardship to the Company and the remaining Member(s).

10.2 Dissolution Events. The Company shall be dissolved upon the earliest to occur of one of the following events:

10.2.1 the first occurrence of any event set forth in Sections 9.2.1 or 9.2.2; provided, however, that within 60 days after such event, the remaining Members (A) may elect in their sole and absolute discretion to continue the Company and (B) may designate a new, successor Managing Member as set forth in Section 9.3, in which case the Company shall not be dissolved;

10.3	Liquidation and Final Distribution Proceeds.

10.3.1 Upon the dissolution of the Company pursuant to Sections 10.2.1 through 10.2.4, the Company shall thereafter engage in no further business other than that which is necessary to wind up the business. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidator are as follows:

If, upon liquidation of the Company or upon liquidation of a Member’s interest in the Company, a Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all taxable years, including the year during which the liquidation occurs), such Member shall not be obligated to make any capital contribution with respect to such deficit.

11.	REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE MEMBERS

11.1 Authority. It has been duly formed and is a validly existing in the jurisdiction of its formation, is in good standing, and with requisite power to execute this Agreement and perform all its obligations hereunder. The persons and entities executing this Agreement and all assignments contemplated hereby on its behalf have the power and authority to enter into this Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it has been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action of it. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by it and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Member, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms hereof.

11.2 Consents. It has obtained all consents required to enter into and perform this Agreement required under any company agreement, shareholder agreement, limited liability company agreement, covenant, charter, declaration of trust, or other agreement concerning it or to which it is a party or which is binding upon it or by any law or regulations or any judgment, order or decree of any governmental body, agency or court having jurisdiction over it.

11.3 No Conflict. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated will conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with or without the giving of notice or the passing of time, or both) a default under, or otherwise adversely affect any contract, agreement, instrument, license or undertaking to which such Member or any of its Affiliates is a party or by which it or any of them or any of their respective properties or assets is or may be bound.

11.4 No Broker. Neither Investor Member nor any of its Affiliates have dealt with any broker or finder in connection with the transactions between the parties hereto contemplated by this Agreement, except that Waterford Member has dealt with Xxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxxx, whom Waterford Member will pay pursuant to a separate agreement. Each Member agrees to defend, indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any and all loss, liability party may incur arising by reason of the above representation being false.

11.5 Foreign Partner. It is neither a “foreign person” within the meaning of Code Section 1445(f) nor a “foreign partner” within the meaning of Code Section 1446(e).

Each Member hereby agrees to and shall defend, indemnify, and hold the Company and the other Member harmless from and against any loss or damage caused by or accruing from a breach by such indemnifying Member of any representation, warranty or covenant made by it in this Agreement.

12.	REQUIRED SALE.

The provisions of this article shall be subject to the consent, distribution and other rights of Minority Holders in all respects, with respect to any Part Owned Property.

12.1 Offers. If at any time after the third anniversary of the acquisition of the Properties, a Member desires to offer one or more Properties or Owner Entities (“Target”) for sale to third parties not Affiliated with such Member (“Third Party Purchaser”) on terms specified by such Member (including the sales price, method of payment, anticipated closing date measured from the date of any to-be-executed contract), or that Member receives from a Third Party Purchaser a bona fide written cash offer (i.e., not seller-financed) for the purchase of the Target on terms that such Member desires for the Company to accept (such specified terms or bona fide offer, the “Offer”), then the Member desiring so to make or accept the Offer (“Initiating Member”) shall provide written notice of the terms of such Offer (the “Sale Notice”) to the other Member (“Non-Initiating Member”). Any Offer must be in an amount at least equal to the amount of all indebtedness secured by the Target.

12.2 Response. Non-Initiating Member shall have 15 Business Days from the date of the delivery of Sale Notice (the “Response Period”) to provide notice to Initiating Member of its willingness or unwillingness to make or accept the Offer to Third Parties Purchasers; failure to deliver such notice shall constitute an election to sell the Target on the terms of the Offer.

12.2.1 Purchase Option. If Non-Initiating Member notifies the Company that it is unwilling to make or accept the Offer, Non-Initiating Member may at the same time give notice to Initiating Member of its election to purchase the Target, in which case Non-Initiating Member shall purchase the Target (subject to the rights of any Minority Interest Holders) on the terms set forth in the Offer. Non-Initiating Member shall have until 30 days from the date of delivery of the Sale Notice to execute a definitive sale contract with the Company and until 90 days after the delivery of the Sale Notice in which to close on the purchase of the Target. Non-Initiating Member’s failure to timely exercise this option shall be deemed an election to sell the Target on the terms of the Offer. If Initiating Member or Non-Initiating Member defaults at the closing, the non-defaulting party shall have the right to bring suit in the name of the Company for damages, for specific performance, or exercise any other remedy available at law or in equity, and such default shall be deemed a material default under this Agreement. Upon payment at closing, the Company and Non-Initiating Member shall execute and deliver all documents reasonably required to transfer the Target.

12.2.2 Offer Acceptable. If Non-Initiating Member consents to the Company selling the Target on the terms of the Offer or fails to exercise its purchase option with respect to the Target, then Initiating Member shall be permitted to sell, on behalf of the Company, the Target for cash at a price not less than 95% of the price set forth in the Offer and substantially on the other terms and conditions set forth in the Offer for a period of up to 90 days following the expiration of the Response Period. If Initiating Member enters into a bona fide contract with a Third Party Purchaser to sell the Target for cash at the price set forth in the Offer and substantially on the other terms and conditions set forth in the Offer within such 90-day period, Initiating Member shall have an additional period of 60 days after the date of such contract (that is, within 150 days after the end of the Response Period) in which to consummate the sale. If Initiating Member is unable to enter into a bona fide contract to sell the Target for cash at the price set forth in the Offer and substantially on the other terms and conditions set forth in the Offer within such 90-day period, or, if after having obtained such bona fide contract, Initiating Member is unable to consummate such sale within 150 days after the end of the Response Period, then the Offer shall be terminated, and thereafter Initiating Member must again submit an Offer to Non-Initiating Member under the terms of this Article before it may sell the Target pursuant to this Article.

12.2.3 Sale By the Company. In the event of the sale of any Property to a Third Party Purchaser in accordance with this Article, then the sale will be treated as a sale by the applicable Owner Entity, and the Capital Proceeds resulting therefrom shall be distributed accordingly. In the event of a purchase of a Property by the Non-Initiating Member under this Article, then Non-Initiating Member shall pay to Initiating Member the proceeds that Initiating Member would have received in a liquidation, had the Property been sold at the Offer price and the Company thereupon liquidated. At the request of either Member and so long as the same can be accomplished at no additional cost, expense or delay to the Company and so long as the Company is not required to take title to any exchange property, the Members will give fair consideration to, but will be under no obligation to implement, any structure proposed by the requesting member for disposing of the Property in a manner that permits the requesting Member to report its share of the sales proceeds as a tax-free exchange under Section 1031 of the Code.

12.3 No Suspension of Rights Under Article 13. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, a Member’s exercise of its rights under this Article shall not affect or prevent a Member’s exercise of its rights under Article 13 hereof, it being understood that the rights of a Member under Article 13 are superior to those of a Member under this Article.

13.	BUY-SELL DISPUTE RESOLUTION

13.1

Exercise.

13.1.1 From and after the third anniversary of the Contribution Agreement Closing Date, in the event that:

A. at any time there exists a Major Dispute (other than failure to agree on an Operating Budget or a Business Plan), in which case either Member may be an initiating party; or

B. an Event of Bankruptcy shall occur or exist with respect to a Member or its direct or indirect parent entity, in which case only the other Member may be the initiating party, or if,

13.1.2 at any time, the proviso in Section 8.1.2 applies, in which case only Waterford Member may be the initiating party,

then the Member that is permitted to be the initiating party under this Section may exercise its right to initiate the provisions of this Article (the “Buy-Sell Option”). The Member desiring to exercise the Buy-Sell Option (“Offeror”) shall do so by giving notice (the “Initiating Notice”) to the other Member (“Offeree”) setting forth a statement of intent to invoke its rights under this Article, stating therein the aggregate dollar amount (the “Valuation Amount”) that Offeror would be willing to pay for the assets of the Company as of the Buy-Sell Closing Date (hereinafter defined) free and clear of all liabilities (as if unencumbered), but subject to the rights of the Minority Interest Holders with respect to any Part Owned Property. The only closing adjustments or prorations to the Valuation Amount shall be the amount of monetary payment obligation liabilities to which the Properties are subject and the pro rata adjustment to reflect any Minority Interests. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event will the purchase price paid for a Membership Interest pursuant to this Article be less than zero.

After receipt of such notice, Offeree shall elect either to (1) sell its entire Membership Interest to Offeror for an amount equal to the amount Offeree would have been entitled to receive if the Company had sold its assets for the Valuation Amount on the Buy-Sell Closing Date and the Company had immediately paid all Company liabilities and distributed the resulting Capital Proceeds to the Members in satisfaction of their interests in the Company pursuant to the liquidating provisions of Article 10 hereof, or (2) purchase the entire Membership Interest of Offeror for an amount equal to the amount Offeror would have been entitled to receive if the Company had sold all of its assets for the Valuation Amount on the Buy-Sell Closing Date and the Company had immediately paid all Company liabilities and distributed the resulting Capital Proceeds of the sale to the Members in satisfaction of their interests in the Company pursuant to the liquidating provisions of Article 10 hereof. If the Buy-Sell Option is exercised, then Offeree shall have 45 days after the giving of Offeror’s notice in which to exercise either of its options by giving written notice to Offeror. If Offeree does not elect to acquire Offeror’s Membership Interest within the 45-day period, Offeree shall be deemed to have elected to sell its interest to Offeror. Within 3 Business Days after an election has been made under this Section (whether deemed or otherwise) the acquiring Member shall deposit with an escrow agent selected by the selling Member and reasonably acceptable to the acquiring Member an xxxxxxx money deposit in an amount equal to 10% of the amount the selling Member is entitled to receive for its Membership Interest under this Section, which deposit will be applied to the purchase price at Closing. Only contemporaneously with the closing under this Article, the acquiring Member may assign its right to acquire the interest of the selling Member to another party designated by the acquiring Member so long as the acquiring Member remains liable for such purchase.

13.2 Closing. The closing of an acquisition pursuant to this Article shall be held at the principal place of business of the Company on a mutually acceptable date (the “Buy-Sell Closing Date”) not later than 90 days after the Initiating Notice. The acquiring Member may extend the Buy-Sell Closing Date for up to sixty days after the foregoing 90-day period, provided that not later than 75 days after the Initiating Notice the acquiring Member has given notice of such extension and unconditionally made a purchase deposit of $1,000,000 in escrow with an escrow agent mutually acceptable to acquiring Member and selling Member. At the Closing of the disposition and acquisition of such interests the following shall occur:

13.2.1 The selling Member shall assign to the acquiring Member or its designee the selling Member’s Membership Interest in accordance with the instructions of the acquiring Member, and shall execute and deliver to the acquiring Member or its designee all documents which may be reasonably required to give effect to the disposition and acquisition of such interests, in each case free and clear of all liens, claims, and encumbrances, with covenants of general warranty;

13.2.2 if any assumption fees under any loan are due or owing due to the assignment of a Member’s Membership Interest, then the Company shall pay for such fees when due; and

13.2.3 The acquiring Member shall pay to the selling Member the consideration therefor in cash.

13.3	Buy-Sell Default.

13.3.1 If the acquiring Member (for such purposes the “Defaulted Acquirer”) defaults in its obligation to buy in accordance with this Article, then the selling Member (for such purposes, the “Replacement Acquirer”) shall exercise one of the following alternative remedies within 30 days after the Defaulted Acquirer’s default as the Replacement Acquirer’s sole and exclusive remedy for such default:

A. The Replacement Acquirer shall purchase the Defaulted Acquirer’s Membership Interest on the terms set forth above, such closing to occur not later than 180 days after the Initiating Notice, except that the purchase price shall be 90% of the amount that the Defaulted Acquirer would be entitled to receive for its Membership Interest under Section 13.1; or

B. The Replacement Acquirer shall retain the xxxxxxx money deposit as full liquidated damages for such default of the Defaulted Acquirer, the Members hereby acknowledging and agreeing that it is impossible to more precisely estimate the damages to be suffered by the Replacement Acquirer upon the Defaulted Acquirer’s default and the Members acknowledge and agree that the xxxxxxx money deposit that may be retained by the Replacement Acquirer is intended not as a penalty, but as full liquidated damages for such default of the Defaulted Acquirer. In the event the Defaulted Acquirer failed to make its xxxxxxx money deposit as required in Section 13.1 and the Replacement Acquirer has elected its remedy under this Section 13.3, then the Replacement Acquirer shall have the right to recover an award or judgment against the Defaulted Acquirer in the amount of such required xxxxxxx money deposit, together with its reasonable attorneys’ fee and costs incurred in obtaining such award or judgment.

13.3.2 If the selling Member defaults in its obligation to sell in accordance with this Article, the acquiring Member shall exercise one of the following alternative remedies within 30 days after the selling Member’s default as the acquiring Member’s sole and exclusive remedy for such default:

A. The acquiring Member shall be entitled to demand and receive a return of its xxxxxxx money deposit previously deposited with the selling Member; or

B. The acquiring Member shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the selling Member’s obligations under this Article, the Members expressly agreeing that the remedy at law for breach of the obligations of the selling Member set forth in this Article is inadequate in view of (A) the complexities and uncertainties in measuring the actual damage to be sustained by the acquiring Member on account of the default of the selling Member; and (B) the uniqueness of the Company business and the Members’ relationships.

13.4 Payment of Debts. If, at the Buy-Sell Closing Date, the selling Member has any outstanding debts to the Company or the acquiring Member relating to the Company, all proceeds of the purchase price due the selling Member for its Membership Interest will be paid to the Company or the acquiring Member (pro--rata in accordance with the amounts owed by the selling Member to each) for and on behalf of the selling Member until all the debts will have been paid and discharged in full. The acquiring Member will be entitled to deduct from the amounts otherwise payable to the selling Member any and all amounts owed to the acquiring Member, including damages owed by reason of any default, to the extent agreed by the parties or to the extent such damages have been reduced to an arbitration award or a final nonappealable judgment, as applicable.

13.5 Release of Capital Contribution Obligations. At the time of closing on the purchase and sale of a Membership Interest pursuant to this Article, each selling Member will be released from any further obligation to make Capital Contributions to the Company.

13.6 Operations in Pre-Closing Period. From the date the Initiating Notice is given until the date the closing occurs under this Article or, if earlier, the date on which the Members agree not to proceed with such closing, the Company will continue to be operated in the ordinary course as though the closing were not going to occur, the Members will continue to have all power and authority granted in this Agreement (including the power to make distributions), and the Members will exercise their power and authority in good faith and without regard to the fact that such closing may occur (although the selling Member shall not unreasonably withhold any consents with respect to the Property during such period); provided, however, that, any and all distributions received by the selling Member from the Company during such period representing distributions of Capital Proceeds shall be credited against and reduce the price otherwise payable to the selling Member for its Membership Interest and any Capital Contributions made by the selling Member during such period shall be added to and increase the price otherwise payable to the selling Member for its Membership Interest, and the Company shall not agree to sell or otherwise dispose of any Property; however, the Company shall be authorized to consummate any transactions that were the subject of binding contractual obligations entered into prior to the commencement of such period.

13.7 Suspension of Rights Under Article 12. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time a Member has exercised the Buy-Sell Option in accordance with this Article, then the Members’ respective rights under Article 12 shall not be exercised or pursued (unless a binding sale contract is then in effect) unless and until the initiation of the Buy-Sell Option is withdrawn or rescinded by Offeror or unless and until the occurrence of a breach or default with respect to the Buy-Sell Option by the acquiring Member.

14.	MISCELLANEOUS

14.1 Right of First Offer. In the event that Waterford Member desires to sell to any party that is not an Affiliate any property Waterford Member then owns (other than its Membership Interest), regardless of whether Waterford Member has then identified a purchaser, then Waterford Member shall present a written proposal to Investor Member setting forth all material terms of a proposed sale and shall provide Investor Member with the information required to be provided in a Venture Package under Section 4.5 and other customary due diligence information and access with respect to the relevant property, including legal, financial, accounting, operational and environmental books and records. Investor Member shall have 15 days in which to notify Waterford Member as to whether Investor Member will accept the terms of the proposed sale. In the event that Investor Member notifies Waterford Member within said 15-day period that Investor Member desires to accept the proposal from Waterford Member, then Investor Member and Waterford Member shall work towards a binding agreement containing substantially all of the terms and conditions set forth in said proposal.

In the event that Investor Member fails to so notify Waterford Member within such fifteen day period, Waterford Member shall be free to make the same offer upon substantially the same terms, or a purchase price not ten percent lower than such terms, to a third party for a period of 90 days from the date which is the end of said fifteen-day period. If no such binding commitment is obtained between Waterford Member and a third party within said 90-day period, then, before entering into any such proposed agreement, Waterford Member must again notify and offer to Investor Member the contemplated sale under this Section 14.1.

14.2 Waiver of Conflict of Interest. The Company and the Members may, at their option, be represented by the same counsel.
