Upon the execution and delivery of such written joinder agreement by such additional Person and the receipt and acceptance by the Company of the initial Capital Contribution of such additional Person, such additional Person shall become and be treated as a Series A Member for all purposes of this Agreement, and Exhibit A, the Member Schedule and the books and records of the Company shall be properly amended to reflect the status of such additional Person as a Series A Member, such additional Person’s initial Capital Contribution and the number of Series A Preferred Units held by such additional Person.

(e) Subject to the limitations set forth below in this Section 4.1(e) and subject to the provisions of Section §4.1(h) and Section 5.13(a) hereof, the Company may, from time to time with the affirmative vote or written consent of the Board of Managers, (i) sell and/or issue Series B Preferred Units to additional Persons and/or (ii) admit any such additional Persons as Series B Members, all on such terms and conditions as the Board of Managers shall determine, including, without limitation, the amount of the initial Capital Contribution that such additional Persons will be required to make in connection with such Series B Preferred Units, the timing and method of paying any such initial Capital Contribution and the number of Series B Preferred Units to be sold and/or issued to such additional Persons.

Upon the execution and delivery of such written joinder agreement by such additional Person and the receipt and acceptance by the

(f) Subject to the limitations set forth below in this Section 4.1(f) and subject to the provisions of Section 4.1(h) hereof, the Company may, from time to time with the affirmative vote or written consent of the Board of Managers, (i) sell and/or issue Common Units to additional Persons and/or (ii) admit any such additional Persons as Common Members, all on such terms and conditions as the Board of Managers shall determine, including, without limitation, the amount, if any, of the initial Capital Contribution that such additional Persons will be required to make in connection with such Common Units, the timing and method of paying any such initial Capital Contribution and the number of Common Units to be sold and/or issued to such additional Persons. Such terms may include the deferral of part or all of any such additional Person’s initial Capital Contribution with respect to such Common Units (any portion so deferred, a “Deferred Initial Capital Contribution”), and no such additional Person shall, except as otherwise provided in a written agreement between the Company and such additional Person, have any liability to the Company for payment of a Deferred Initial Capital Contribution until, and then only to the extent that, such additional Person becomes entitled to distributions from the Company under the provisions of Section 11.2, Section 11.3 or Section 14.3. Such a Deferred Initial Capital Contribution, in the absence of a contrary determination by the Board of Managers, shall be equal to the amount of Net Income, if any, that would be allocated to such additional Person (but for the provisions of Section 10.2 hereof) if the Company disposed of all of its assets, for an amount of cash equal to the then fair market value of such assets, immediately following the admission of such additional Person as a Common Member. For the avoidance of doubt, the use of such a formula in computing the Deferred Initial Capital Contribution and the provisions of Section 10.2 hereof relating to allocations and distributions in respect of Deferred Contribution Common Units are intended to prevent distributions in respect of such Units out of the capital of the Company as of the time such a Unit is issued, consistent with the treatment of such a Unit as a “profits interest” under the Code. Each additional Person to be admitted as a Common Member pursuant to this Section 4.1(f) shall execute and deliver to the Company a written joinder agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, evidencing, among other things, (1) the number of Common Units sold and/or issued to such additional Person, (2) the agreement of such additional Person to be admitted as a Common Member and to be bound by and subject to all of the terms of this Agreement that are applicable to Common Members and (3) the terms and conditions pertaining to the initial Capital Contribution obligation, if any, of such additional Person in connection with such sale and/or issuance of Common Units. Upon the execution and delivery of such written joinder agreement by such additional Person and, if applicable, the receipt and acceptance by the Company of the initial Capital Contribution of such additional Person, such additional Person shall become and be treated as a Common Member for all purposes of this Agreement, Exhibit C

shall be properly amended to reflect the status of such additional Person as a Common Member and the Member Schedule and the books and records of the Company shall be properly amended to reflect the status of such additional Person as a Common Member, such additional Person’s initial Capital Contribution, if any, and the number of Common Units held by such additional Person.

The Series B Members shall have (i) all of the rights, powers, privileges and obligations provided for under this Agreement that are applicable to the Series B Members and (ii) all of the rights, powers, privileges and obligations provided for under the Delaware Act that are applicable to members of limited liability companies organized in Delaware (but only to the extent such rights, powers, privileges and obligations provided for under Delaware Act are not inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Series B Members). The Common Members shall have (x) all of the rights, powers, privileges and obligations provided for under this Agreement that are applicable to the Common Members and (ii) all of the rights, powers, privileges and obligations provided for under the Delaware Act that are applicable to members of limited liability companies organized in Delaware (but only to the extent such rights, powers, privileges and obligations provided for under Delaware Act are not inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Common Members).

(h) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.1 to the contrary, the Company may not sell and/or issue any Series A Preferred Units pursuant to Section 4.1(d), sell and/or issue any Series B Preferred Units pursuant to Section §4.1(e) or sell and/or issue any Common Units pursuant to Section 4.1(f) if, as a result of the sale and/or issuance of such Series A Preferred Units, Series B Preferred Units or such Common Units, as the case may be, the total number of Series A Preferred Units, Series B Preferred Units or Common Units, as the case may be, that would be issued and outstanding would exceed the maximum number of authorized Series A Preferred Units under Section 4.2(b) below, the maximum number of authorized Series B Preferred Units under Section 4.2(b) below or the maximum number of authorized Common Units under Section 4.2(b) below, as the case may be.

be, and, if applicable, that such Person no longer owns or is the holder of Series A Preferred Units, Series B Preferred Units or Common Units, as the case may be.

§4.2. Units.

Of such maximum number of Common Units that the Company shall be authorized to issue, a number equal to the number of Series A Preferred Units issued and outstanding from time to time is hereby reserved for issuance in the event of the automatic conversion of Series A Preferred Units into Common Units pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 4.11 hereof. Of such maximum number of Common Units that the Company shall be authorized to issue a number equal to the number of Series B Preferred Units issued and outstanding from time to time is hereby reserved for issuance in the event of the automatic conversion of Series B Preferred Units into Common Units pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section §4.11 hereof.

The vesting terms approved by the Board of Managers or set forth in any such written agreement may provide that all or any portion of the Compensatory Units held by such Common Member shall be fully vested, may provide for a different vesting schedule or different vesting provisions with respect to any or all of such Compensatory Units or may provide for the acceleration of the vesting of any or all of such Compensatory Units under certain circumstances. The terms of any such written agreement between the Company and any Common Member will be substantially similar to any existing agreement where they exist.

(c) Upon the forfeiture and cancellation of any Compensatory Units of any Common Member pursuant to the provisions of any written agreement entered into by the Company and such Common Member, or upon the purchase or other acquisition by the Company of any Compensatory Units of any Common Member, the books and records of the Company shall be appropriately amended to reflect the forfeiture, cancellation, purchase or other acquisition, as applicable, of such Compensatory Units, and, if such Common Member shall not own any other Common Units, the books and records of the Company shall be appropriately amended to reflect that such Common Member shall have ceased to be a Common Member.

§4.4. Company Capital. The capital of the Company shall be the aggregate amount of the cash and the aggregate fair market value of other property contributed by the Members.

§4.5. Capital Contributions.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein or as provided by applicable law, the Members shall be liable only to make their respective initial Capital Contributions, if any, specified in Exhibit A, Exhibit B, Exhibit C or the Member Schedule, as applicable, and no Member shall be required to lend any funds to the Company or, subject to Section 1.1 of the Series B Purchase Agreement to make any additional Capital Contributions to the Company. No Member shall have any personal liability for the payment or repayment of any Capital Contributions of any other Member. The Board of Managers may notify the Members that the Board of Mangers has determined that further Capital Contributions by the Members are required, but the Members will have no obligation to fund or otherwise provide any such additional Capital Contributions.

(b) No Member shall be entitled to receive any interest, salary or drawing with respect to such Member’s Capital Contributions or such Member’s

Capital Account or for services rendered on behalf of the Company or otherwise in such Member’s capacity as a Member.

§4.6. Capital Accounts. A separate capital account (each a “Capital Account”) shall be maintained for each Member in accordance with the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv), and this Section 4.6 shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith. Whenever the Company would be permitted to adjust the Capital Accounts of the Members pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) to reflect the revaluation of Company property, the Company may so adjust the Capital Accounts of the Members, upon an affirmative vote of the Board of Managers. In the event that the Capital Accounts of the Members are adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) to reflect the revaluation of Company property, (i) the Capital Accounts of Members shall be adjusted in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704(b)(2)(iv)(g) for allocations of depreciation, depletion, amortization and gain or loss, as computed for book purposes, with respect to such property and (ii) the Members’ distributive shares of depreciation, depletion, amortization and gain or loss, as computed for tax purposes, with respect to such property shall be determined so as to take account of the variation between the adjusted tax basis and book value of such property in a manner consistent with the principles of Code Section 704(c).

Subject to Section 5.13(a) hereof, the amount of any such advance in excess of such Member’s Capital Contribution, unless otherwise specified or accounted for pursuant to a written instrument or agreement approved by the Board of Managers, shall be a debt obligation of the Company to such Member and shall be repaid to such Member by the Company with interest at a rate equal to the lesser of (a) a reasonable rate established by the Board of Managers, and (b) the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, and upon such other terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Board of Managers. Any such advance shall be payable and collectible only out of Company assets, and no Member shall be personally obligated to repay any part thereof. Except as approved by the Board of Managers and specifically provided pursuant to the terms thereof, no Person who makes any loan to the Company shall have or acquire, as a result of making such loan, any Units or any direct or indirect interest in the profits, capital or property of the Company, other than as a creditor.

§4.8. No Withdrawal of Capital; No Partition. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no Member shall have any right (a) to withdraw from the Company all or any part of such Member’s Capital Contribution or (b) to receive the return of all or any part of its Capital Contribution or Capital Account. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Members irrevocably waives, for so long as the Company shall continue to operate, any right that such Member may have, except as

specifically provided herein, (i) to maintain an action for partition with respect to any property or assets of the Company or (ii) to commence an action seeking dissolution of the Company under the laws of the State of Delaware.

§4.9. Antidilution Protection.

(a) In the event the Company shall at any time after the date of this Agreement issue Additional Units (including Additional Units deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 4.9(d)), without consideration or for a consideration per Additional Unit less than the Series A Trigger Price or Series B Trigger Price, as the case may be, in effect immediately prior to such issue, then the Company shall issue to each holder of Series A Preferred Units or Series B Preferred Units, as applicable, a number of Common Units (the “Antidilution Units”) that is equal to: (1) with respect to the Series A Preferred Units (x) the product (rounded down to the nearest whole number) obtained by multiplying (i) the sum of the number of Series A Preferred Units owned or held by such holder immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Units plus the cumulative number of Antidilution Units then held by such holder that were previously issued pursuant to this Section 4.9 with respect to such Series A Preferred Units by (ii) the fraction, the numerator of which is the Series A Trigger Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Units, and the denominator of which is the Series A Trigger Price in effect immediately after the issuance of such Additional Units after giving effect to the adjustment to such Series A Trigger Price contemplated under Section 4.9(c) below, less (y) the sum of the number of Series A Preferred Units owned or held by such holder immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Units plus the cumulative number of Antidilution Units then held by such holder that were previously issued pursuant to this Section 4.9 with respect to such Series A Preferred Units; and (2) with respect to the Series B Preferred Units (x) the product (rounded down to the nearest whole number) obtained by multiplying (i) the sum of the number of Series B Preferred Units owned or held by such holder immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Units plus the cumulative number of Antidilution Units then held by such holder that were previously issued pursuant to this Section §4.9(a) with respect to such Series B Preferred Units by (ii) the fraction, the numerator of which is the Series B Trigger Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Units, and the denominator of which is the Series B Trigger Price in effect immediately after the issuance of such Additional Units after giving effect to the adjustment to such Series B Trigger Price contemplated under Section §4.9(c) below, less (y) the sum of the number of Series B Preferred Units owned or held by such holder immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Units plus the cumulative number of Antidilution Units then held by such holder that were previously issued pursuant to this Section §4.9(a) with respect to such Series B Preferred Units. The Company shall issue any and all Antidilution Units that the Company is required to issue pursuant to this Section §4.9(a) as promptly as practicable (but in any event not later than thirty (30) days) following the issuance of Additional Units that triggered the Company’s obligation to issue such Antidilution Units under this Section §4.9(a).

(b) Each Person to whom Antidilution Units are issued pursuant to Section 4.9(a) above shall execute and deliver to the Company a written joinder

agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, pursuant to which such Person agrees to be bound by and subject to all of the terms of this Agreement that are applicable to Common Units and holders of Common Units. If such Person was a Member prior to the issuance of Antidilution Units to such Person pursuant to Section 4.9(a), then such written joinder agreement shall also provide that such Person agrees to be admitted as a Common Member with respect to such Antidilution Units, and, upon the Company’s receipt of such written joinder agreement, such Person shall become and be treated as a Common Member for all purposes of this Agreement with respect to such Antidilution Units. Upon the execution and delivery of such written joinder agreement by such Person, the Member Schedule and the books and records of the Company shall be properly amended to reflect the number of Antidilution Units issued to such Person pursuant to Section 4.9(a), and, if such Person is admitted as a Common Member pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.9(b), Exhibit C, the Member Schedule and the books and records of the Company shall be properly amended to reflect the status of such Person as a Common Member.

(c) In the event the Company shall at any time after the date of this Agreement issue Additional Units (including Additional Units deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 4.9(d)), without consideration or for a consideration per Additional Unit less than the Series A Trigger Price or Series B Trigger Price, as applicable in effect immediately prior to such issue, then the Series A Trigger Price or Series B Trigger Price, as applicable, shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:

TP2 = TP1* (A + B) ÷ (A + C).

For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:

“TP2” shall mean the Series A Trigger Price or Series B Trigger Price, as applicable in effect immediately after such issue of Additional Units

“TP1” shall mean the Series A Trigger Price or Series B Trigger Price, as applicable, in effect immediately prior to such issue of Additional Units;

“A” shall mean the number of Units outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Units (treating for this purpose as outstanding all Units issuable upon exercise of Options outstanding immediately prior to such issue or upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities outstanding (assuming exercise of any outstanding Options therefor) immediately prior to such issue);

“B” shall mean the number of Additional Units that would have been issued if such Additional Units had been issued at a price per Additional Unit equal to TP1 (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such Additional Units issued by TP1); and

“C” shall mean the number of such Additional Units issued in such transaction.

(d) Deemed Issuance of Additional Units.

(i) In the event the Company shall at any time after the date of this Agreement issue any Options or Convertible Securities (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities), then the maximum number of Units (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, convertibility or exchangeability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Units issued as of the time of such issuance.

(ii) If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security, the issuance of which resulted in the issuance of any Antidilution Units, are revised as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase or decrease in the number of Units issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any increase or decrease in the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, then, effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective, the number of Antidilution Units originally computed upon the original issue of such Option or Convertible Security shall be recalculated to determine the number of Antidilution Units as would have issued had such revised terms been in effect upon the original date of issuance of such Option or Convertible Security. If such calculation results in a greater number of Antidilution Units than the number originally calculated and issued, then such difference shall be issued as additional Antidilution Units to each Member issued the original issuance of Antidilution Units. If such calculation results in a lesser number of Antidilution Units than the number originally calculated and issued, then each Member issued such original issuance of Antidilution Units agrees that Antidilution Units comprising such overage of shall be deemed cancelled and not recognized by the Company as issued and outstanding and Exhibit C, the Member Schedule, and the books and records of the Company shall be properly amended to reflect such cancellation).

(iii) [Reserved].

(iv) If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities), the issuance of which did not result in an issuance of Antidilution Units are revised after the date of this Agreement, as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of Units issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such Option or Convertible

Security, as so amended or adjusted, and the Additional Units subject thereto shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective. Upon the expiration or termination of any unexercised Option or unconverted or unexchanged Convertible Security (or portion thereof) which resulted (either upon its original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) in an issuance of Antidilution Shares, then each Member issued such Antidilution Shares agrees that such overage of Antidilution Units shall be deemed cancelled and not recognized by the Company as issued and outstanding and Exhibit C, the Member Schedule, and the books and records of the Company shall be properly amended to reflect such cancellation,so it is as if such Option or Convertible Security (or portion thereof) had never been issued.

(v) If the number of Units issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, is calculable at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended but is subject to adjustment based upon subsequent events, any issuance of Antidilution Shares provided for in this Subsection 4.9(d) shall be effected at the time of such issuance or amendment based on such number of shares or amount of consideration without regard to any provisions for subsequent adjustments (and any subsequent adjustments shall be treated as provided above). If the number of Units issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, cannot be calculated at all at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended, any issuance of Antidilution Shares that would result under the terms of this Section 4.9(d) at the time of such issuance or amendment shall instead be effected at the time such number of Units and/or amount of consideration is first calculable (even if subject to subsequent adjustments), assuming for purposes of calculating the number of Antidilution Shares that such issuance or amendment took place at the time such calculation can first be made.

(e) For purposes of this Section 4.9, the consideration received by the Company for the issue of any Additional Units shall be computed as follows:

(i) Such consideration shall: (1) insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the Company, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest; (2) insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by the Board of Managers; and (3) in the event Additional Units are issued together with other securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received that is allocated to such Additional Units, computed as provided in the foregoing clauses (1) and (2), as determined in good faith by the Board of Managers (including the Preferred Managers).

(ii) The consideration per Additional Unit received by the Company for Additional Units deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 4.9(d) above, relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing (1) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue of such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of

additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Company upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by (2) the maximum number of Units (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

(f) Upon the occurrence of each issuance of Additional Units that results in the issuance of Antidilution Units pursuant to Section 4.9(a) hereof, the Company at its expense shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than 30 days thereafter, furnish to each holder of Series A Preferred Units or the Series B Preferred Units, as the case may be, a certificate setting forth the adjustment of the Series A Trigger Price or Series B Trigger Price, as applicable, resulting from such issuance of Additional Units (showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based) and the calculation of the number of Antidilution Units to which such holder of Series A Preferred Units or holder of Series B Preferred Units is entitled as a result of such issuance of Additional Units. The Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the written request at any time of any holder of Series A Preferred Units or the Series B Preferred Units, as the case may be, (but in any event not later than 30 days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth the Series A Trigger Price or Series B Trigger Price, as applicable, then in effect.

(g) No Antidilution Units shall be issued pursuant to Section 4.9(a) hereof, and no adjustment in the Series A Trigger Price or Series B Trigger Price, as applicable, shall be made, as the result of the issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Units if the Company receives written notice from the Majority Preferred Members, agreeing that no such issuance and adjustment shall be made as the result of the issuance or deemed issuance of such Additional Units.

§4.10. Adjustment Upon Subdivisions, Distributions and Combinations of Units. In the event that the Company proposes to implement a split or other subdivision of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units, Series B Preferred Units, or the Common Units, as the case may be, then, simultaneously with such implementation, the Company shall also implement a split or other subdivision of the outstanding Common Units, Series B Preferred Units or Series A Preferred Units, respectively, on the same or equivalent terms. In the event the Company proposes to distribute for no consideration additional Common Units to Common Members, then and in each such event, the Preferred Members shall receive, simultaneously with such distribution to the Common Members, a distribution of such Common Units in an amount equal to the amount of such Common Units as such Preferred Members would have received if all outstanding Preferred Units had been converted into Common Units, pursuant to Section 4.11

below, on the date of such event. In the event that the Company proposes to implement a reverse split or other combination of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units, Series B Preferred Units or the Common Units, as the case may be, then, simultaneously with such implementation, the Company shall also implement a reverse split or other combination of the outstanding Common Units, Series B Preferred Units or Series A Preferred Units, respectively on the same or equivalent terms.

§4.11. Automatic Conversion.

(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Section 4.11, all outstanding Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units shall automatically convert to Common Units at the election of the Majority Preferred Members, which election shall be made by the Majority Preferred Members acting, consenting or voting separately from all other Members in the manner contemplated under Section 5.5 hereof. Such automatic conversion shall become effective immediately upon the making of such election by the Majority Preferred Members unless such election shall specify a different effective date and time for such automatic conversion, in which case such automatic conversion shall become effective on the effective date and time specified in such election by the Majority Preferred Members. At any time prior to the effectiveness of any such automatic conversion, the Majority Preferred Members acting, consenting or voting separately from all other Members in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.5 hereof, may determine to abandon such automatic conversion, in which case such automatic conversion shall immediately be abandoned and not become effective (subject to the right of the Majority Preferred Members to make a future election under this Section 4.11(a) to automatically convert the outstanding Series A Preferred Units and the Series B Preferred Units into Common Units).

(b) Each Member hereby acknowledges and agrees that if such Member is deemed a Defaulting Purchaser (as defined in the Series B Purchase Agreement) and fails to purchase any Units that such Defaulting Purchaser is required to purchase under the Series B Purchase Agreement at the Closing (as defined in the Series B Purchase Agreement) (including, without limitation, any Units that Pfizer is required to purchase at the Closing in the event that the Company exercises its right thereunder), then upon consummation of the Closing, each Preferred Unit held by such Defaulting Purchaser shall, with no further action, approval or consent by the Company or such Defaulting Purchaser, automatically convert into one (1) Common Unit and such Defaulting Purchaser shall automatically and without further action by such Defaulting Purchaser or any other Member or the Company, cease to be a Series A Member or Series B Member, as the case may be, and shall become and thereafter be treated as a Common Member for all purposes of this Agreement. For clarity, if the Company does not exercise its right to require Pfizer to purchase Units in the Closing, then the Units held by Pfizer shall not be subject to conversion under this Section 4.11(b).

(c) Upon the effectiveness of an automatic conversion pursuant to this Section 4.11, (i) each Series A Preferred Unit and the Series B Preferred Unit,

shall automatically convert into one (1) Common Unit and (ii) each Series A Member or Series B Member, as the case may be, shall, automatically and without further action by such Series A Member or Series B Member, as the case may be, or any other Member or the Company, cease to be a Series A Member or Series B Member, as the case may be, and shall become and thereafter be treated as a Common Member for all purposes of this Agreement. Following such an automatic conversion pursuant to Section 4.11(a) hereof, there shall be no outstanding Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units.

(d) As soon as possible after the effectiveness of an automatic conversion pursuant to this Section 4.11, Exhibit A, Exhibit B, Exhibit C and the Member Schedule and the books and records of the Company shall be properly amended or updated to reflect such automatic conversion of the applicable outstanding Series A Preferred Units and/or Series B Preferred Units, into Common Units and that the applicable Series A Members or the Series B Members are no longer Series A Members or Series B Members, as the case may be, but have become Common Members

§4.12. Conversion to Corporation. With respect to the Company’s initial public offering, if any, to the extent that such initial public offering has been approved by the Board of Managers and the Majority Preferred Members, the Company shall be converted from a Delaware limited liability company to a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”) and, in connection with such conversion, each outstanding Unit shall be converted into one share of common stock of the Corporation. Any such conversion shall become effective immediately prior to the closing of the Company’s initial public offering. Each Member hereby agrees to take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Board of Managers to effect such conversion in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.12, including, without limitation, (i) to vote all of the Units owned or held by such Member in support of such conversion and (ii) to execute and deliver all agreements and documents reasonably necessary or requested in connection with such conversion. In the event that the Company is required to effect an initial public offering pursuant to, and in accordance with, the provisions of Section 2.1 of the Investors’ Rights Agreement, the Board of Managers, the Majority Preferred Members and all other Members shall cause the Company to convert from a Delaware limited liability company to a Delaware corporation pursuant to, and in accordance with, the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.12 prior to the closing of such initial public offering.

ARTICLE VI

DRAG-ALONG RIGHT

§6.1. Actions to be Taken. In the event that the (i) Majority Preferred Members (the “Selling Investors”) and (ii) the Board of Managers (including a majority of the Preferred Managers) approve a Sale of the Company in writing, specifying that this Article VI shall apply to such Sale of the Company, then each Member hereby agrees:

(a) if such Sale of the Company requires approval of the Members, with respect to all Units that such Member owns or over which such Member otherwise exercises voting power, to vote (in person, by proxy or by action by written consent, as applicable) all such Units in favor of, and adopt, such Sale of the Company (together with any related amendment to this Agreement required in order to implement such Sale of the Company) and to vote in opposition to any and all other proposals that could reasonably be expected to delay or impair the ability of the Company to consummate such Sale of the Company;

(b) if such Sale of the Company is pursuant to a transaction described in clause (a) of the definition of Sale of the Company, to sell the same proportion of Units beneficially held by such Member as is being sold by the Selling Investors to the Person to whom the Selling Investors propose to sell their Units, and, except as permitted in Section 6.2 below, on the same terms and conditions as the Selling Investors;

(c) to execute and deliver all related documentation and take such other action in support of the Sale of the Company as shall reasonably be requested by the Company or the Selling Investors in order to carry out the terms and provision of this Article VI, including without limitation executing and delivering instruments of conveyance and transfer (free and clear of impermissible liens, claims and encumbrances), and any purchase agreement, merger agreement, indemnity agreement, escrow agreement, consent, waiver, governmental filing, unit certificates duly endorsed for transfer and any similar or related documents;

(d) not to deposit, and to cause their Affiliates not to deposit, except as provided in this Agreement, any Units owned by such Member or Affiliate in a voting trust or subject any Units to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of such Units, unless specifically requested to do so by the acquiror in connection with such Sale of the Company;

(e) to refrain from exercising any dissenters’ rights or rights of appraisal under applicable law at any time with respect to such Sale of the Company; and

(f) if the consideration to be paid in exchange for the Units pursuant to this Article VI includes any securities and due receipt thereof by any

Member would require under applicable law (x) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any person as a broker or dealer or agent with respect to such securities or (y) the provision to any Member of any information other than such information as a prudent issuer would generally furnish in an offering made solely to “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, the Company may cause to be paid to any such Member in lieu thereof, against surrender of the Units which would have otherwise been sold by such Member, an amount in cash equal to the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Company) of the securities which such Member would otherwise receive as of the date of the issuance of such securities in exchange for the Units.

§6.2. Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Member will not be required to comply with Section 6.1 above in connection with any proposed Sale of the Company (the “Proposed Sale”) unless:

(a) any representations and warranties to be made by such Member in connection with the Proposed Sale are limited to representations and warranties related to authority, ownership and the ability to convey title to such Units, including but not limited to representations and warranties that (i) such Member holds all right, title and interest in and to the Units such Member purports to hold, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, (ii) the obligations of such Member in connection with the transaction have been duly authorized, if applicable, (iii) the documents to be entered into by such Member have been duly executed by such Member and delivered to the acquirer and are enforceable against such Member in accordance with their respective terms and (iv) neither the execution and delivery of documents to be entered into in connection with the transaction, nor the performance of such Member’s obligations thereunder, will cause a breach or violation of the terms of any agreement, law or judgment, order or decree of any court or governmental agency;

(b) such Member shall not be liable for the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by any other Person in connection with the Proposed Sale, other than the Company (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of the Company as well as breach by any Member of any of identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all Members);

(c) the liability for indemnification, if any, of such Member in the Proposed Sale and for the inaccuracy of any representations and warranties made by the Company or its Members in connection with such Proposed Sale, is several and not joint with any other Person (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of the Company as well as breach by any Member of any of identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all Members), and is pro rata in proportion to, and does not exceed, the amount of consideration paid to such Member in connection with such Proposed Sale, except with respect to claims related to fraud and any claim related to breach by such Member of any representation, warranty or covenant made by such Member with respect to itself, the liability for which need not be limited; and

(d) upon the consummation of the Proposed Sale, (i) each holder of each class or series of Units will receive the same form of consideration for their Units of such class or series as is received by other holders in respect of their Units of such same class or series, (ii) each holder of Series A Preferred Units will receive the same amount of consideration per Series A Preferred Unit as is received by other holders in respect of their Series A Preferred Units, (iii) each holder of Series B Preferred Units will receive the same amount of consideration per Series B Preferred Unit as is received by other holders in respect of their Series B Preferred Units, (iv) each holder of Common Units will receive the same amount of consideration per Common Unit as is received by other holders in respect of their Common Units, and, unless the holders of a majority of the Preferred Units elect to receive a lesser amount by written notice given to the Company at least five (5) days prior to the effective date of any such Proposed Sale, the aggregate consideration receivable by all holders of the Preferred Units and Common Units shall be allocated among them on the basis to which the holders of Preferred Units and the holders of Common Units are entitled in a Sale of the Company in accordance with this Agreement as in effect immediately prior to the Proposed Sale.

(e) Subject to clause (d) requiring the same form of consideration to be available to the holders of any single class or series of Units, if any holders of any class or series of Units are given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received as a result of the Proposed Sale, all holders of such class or series of Units will be given the same option; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6.2(e) shall entitle any holder to receive any form of consideration that such holder would be ineligible to receive (including, without limitation, under applicable securities laws) or as a result of such holder’s failure to satisfy any condition, requirement or limitation that is generally applicable to the Members.

§6.3. Restrictions on Sales of Control of the Company. No Member shall be a party to any Units Sale unless all holders of the issued and outstanding Preferred Units are allowed to participate in such Units Sale and the consideration received pursuant to such Units Sale is allocated among the parties thereto in the manner specified in this Agreement (as in effect immediately prior to such Units Sale) with respect to a Sale of the Company, unless the Majority Preferred Members elect otherwise by written notice given to the Company at least five (5) days prior to the effective date of the transaction or series of related transactions that constitutes such Units Sale.

(a) Upon the Withdrawal of a Member, such Withdrawn Member and/or its successor in interest shall cease to be a Member and shall no longer have any rights or privileges of a Member; provided, however, that such Withdrawn Member and/or its successor in interest shall continue to have the right to receive the share of profits, losses, credits and distributions of the Company that such Withdrawn Member would be entitled to receive under this Agreement if the Withdrawal of such Withdrawn Member had not occurred.

(b) Upon the Withdrawal of a Member, Exhibit A, Exhibit B, Exhibit C, the Member Schedule and the books and records of the Company shall be amended, to the extent applicable and appropriate, to reflect that the Withdrawn Member is no longer a Member.

(c) A Withdrawn Member who does desire to make an assignment of its Units shall be subject to all of the provisions of Sections 7.3, 7.4, 7.5 and 7.6 hereof to the same extent and in the same manner as any Member desiring to make an assignment of his, her or its Units.

§7.3. Restrictions on Transfer.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, no Member shall have the right to Transfer any or all of such Member’s Units, or any interest therein, to any Person or Persons; provided, however, that (i) a Preferred Member may Transfer any or all of such Preferred Member’s Preferred Units, or any interest therein, to any Person, subject to and upon compliance with the applicable terms and provisions of Sections 7.3(b), 7.4, 7.5 and 7.6 hereof, (ii) a Common Member may Transfer any or all of such Common Member’s Common Units, or any interest therein, to any Related Person of such Common Member, subject to and upon compliance with the applicable terms and provisions of Sections 7.3(b), 7.4, 7.5 and 7.6 hereof, and (iii) a Common Member may Transfer any or all of such Common Member’s Units, or any interest therein, to any other Person with the prior written consent of the Board of Managers (the giving or withholding of which consent shall be within the absolute discretion of the Board of Managers), subject to and upon compliance with the applicable terms and provisions of Sections 7.3(b), 7.4, 7.5 and 7.6 hereof.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 7.3(a) to the contrary, no Member may Transfer any Units, or any interest therein, to any competitor of the Company or any Affiliate of such competitor as determined by the Board of Managers, provided, however, this Section §7.3(b) shall not be deemed to prevent Pfizer. or its assignee from transferring any of its Units to any of its Affiliates.

§7.4. Assignor of Units; Assignee of Units.

(a) Any Member who shall assign all of its Units shall cease to be a Member, and shall no longer have any rights or privileges of a Member. Unless and until the assignee of such Units is admitted as a substituted Member in accordance with Section 7.5 hereof, such assigning Member shall retain the statutory obligations of an assignor member under the Delaware Act.

(b) Upon any assignment made in accordance with Section 7.3 or Section 7.4(c) hereof, there shall be filed with the Company a duly executed original of the instrument or agreement making such assignment, which instrument or agreement must evidence the written acceptance by the assignee of all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Until such an instrument is so filed, the Company need not recognize any such assignment for any purpose.

(c) An assignee of Units who does not become a substituted Member as provided in Section 7.5 hereof and who does desire to make a further assignment of said Units shall be subject to all of the provisions of Sections 7.3, 7.5 and 7.6 hereof and this Section 7.4 to the same extent and in the same manner as any Member desiring to make an assignment of its Units. Each assignee of Units that does not become a substituted Member as provided in Section 7.5 hereof shall execute such instrument or instruments as shall be required by the Board of Managers to signify its agreement to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement that are applicable to assignees of Units who do not become substituted Members as provided in Section 7.5 hereof.

(d) An assignee of Units who does not become a substituted Member as provided in Section 7.5 hereof shall not have any rights or privileges of a Member; provided, however, that such assignee of Units shall continue to have the right to receive the share of profits, losses, credits and distributions of the Company that such assignee of Units would be entitled to receive under this Agreement if such assignee of Units had become a substituted Member pursuant to Section 7.5 below with respect to such Units.

(e) Exhibit A, Exhibit B, Exhibit C, the Member Schedule and the books and records of the Company shall be amended, to the extent appropriate and applicable, to reflect (i) any permitted assignment or transfer of Units in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.3 hereof and this Section 7.4 and (ii) that the assignor of Units in connection with any such permitted assignment or transfer of Units has ceased to be a Series A Member, Series B Member or a Common Member, as the case may be, by virtue of having assigned or transferred all of its Series A Preferred Units, Series B Preferred Units or Common Units, respectively.

§7.5. Substituted Members.

(a) Except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 7.5(b) below, (i) no Person that is an assignee of Series A Preferred Units or Series B Preferred Units shall be admitted as a substitute Series A Member or Series B Member, as the case may be, with respect to such Series A Preferred Units or

Series B Preferred Units, as the case may be, without the written consent of the Board of Managers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and (ii) no Person that is an assignee of Common Units with respect to such Common Units shall be admitted as a substitute Common Member without the written consent of the Board of Managers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any consent may be withheld with good reason by the Board of Managers even if the Board of Managers consented to the transfer by the applicable Member of its Units. Any such written consent by the Board of Managers shall be binding and conclusive without the consent or approval of any Members. If the Board of Managers consents to the admission of an assignee of Series A Preferred Units as a substitute Series A Member in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.5(a), then such assignee of Series A Preferred Units shall become a Series A Member and a Member for all purposes of this Agreement with respect to such Series A Preferred Units assigned to such assignee and such assignee of Series B Preferred Units shall become a Series B Member and a Member for all purposes of this Agreement with respect to such Series B Preferred Units assigned to such assignee. If the Board of Managers consents to the admission of an assignee of Common Units as a substitute Common Member in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.5(a), then such assignee of Common Units shall become a Common Member and a Member for all purposes of this Agreement with respect to such Common Units assigned to such assignee. The failure or refusal by the Board of Managers to permit an assignee of Units to become a substituted Member under this Section 7.5 shall not affect the right of such assignee to receive the share of the profits, losses, credits and distributions of the Company to which its predecessor in interest was entitled with respect to the Units assigned, provided that, if required by this Agreement, the Board of Managers shall have consented to the assignment or other transfer of Units to such assignee pursuant to Section 7.3 hereof.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 7.5(a) expressed or implied to the contrary, in the event that any Member transfers Series A Preferred Units, Series B Units or Common Units, as the case may be, to a Related Person of such Member and such transfer is effected in full compliance with all of the applicable provisions of Section 7.3 and Section 7.4(b) hereof, then such Related Person shall be admitted by the Company as a substitute Series A Member, Substitute Series B Member or substitute Common Member, as the case may be, to the extent of the Series A Preferred Units, Series B Units or Common Units, as the case may be, so transferred, without having to obtain the written consent of the Company, the Board of Managers or any other Member to any such admission.

(c) Upon the admission of an assignee as a substituted Member, Exhibit A, Exhibit B, Exhibit C, the Member Schedule and the books and records of the Company shall be amended, to the extent appropriate and applicable, to reflect the status of such assignee as a substituted Series A Member, Series B Member and/or Common Member. Each substituted Member shall execute such instrument or instruments as shall be required by the Board of Managers to signify its agreement to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement.

§7.6. Special Restrictions. Anything contained in this Agreement (including, without limitation, the foregoing provisions of Sections 7.3, 7.4 and 7.5) expressed or implied to the contrary notwithstanding:

(a) In no event shall any Units be Transferred to a minor (other than by reason of a Member’s death) or to an incompetent.

(b) The Board of Managers may require as a condition of any Transfer of any Units that the transferor furnish the Company with an opinion of counsel satisfactory (both as to such opinion and as to such counsel) to the Company that such Transfer complies with applicable federal and state securities laws.

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by law, any Transfer in contravention of any of the provisions of Sections 7.3, 7.4 and 7.5 hereof and this Section 7.6 shall be void and ineffectual and shall not bind or be recognized by the Company for any purpose.

(ii) any vacancies created by the resignation, removal or death of a Manager elected pursuant to Sections §8.2(b) shall be filled pursuant to the provisions of this Section §8.2; and

If notice is given in person or by telephone, an affidavit of the CEO, Secretary, Treasurer, or Manager who gives such notice that the notice has been duly given shall, in the absence of fraud, be conclusive evidence that such notice was duly given. In the event that notice of a special meeting of the Board of Managers is not duly given to any Manager, such notice shall be deemed to be waived if such Manager participates in such special meeting.

Each such consent shall be treated for all purposes as a vote at a meeting.

(p) Standard of Care. A Manager in his or her capacity as a member of the Board of Managers shall owe such duty of loyalty and due care to the Company and the Members as is required of a director of a Delaware for profit corporation under the Delaware General Corporation Law in respect of the corporation of which such director is a director and in respect of the stockholders of such corporation. Every Manager shall discharge his or her duties as a member of the Board of Managers in good faith, with the care an ordinary prudent person in a like position would exercise under similar circumstances, and in a manner he or she reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the Company and its Members.

(q) Managers’ Expenses and Fees. The parties hereto shall vote and take such other actions as are necessary to ensure that the Company shall promptly reimburse all Managers for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, including but not limited to reasonable travel expenses, incurred by such Manager in connection with his or her duties as a Manager, and to permit the Company to pay to any such Manager such fees as the Board determines to be appropriate and consistent with the Company’s policies.

(r) Board Committees. The Board of Managers may, by vote of a majority of the Managers then in office, elect from their number an executive committee or other committees and may by like vote delegate to committees so elected some or all of their powers to the extent permitted by law.

(b) Pfizer hereby agrees to cause the Pfizer Board Observer to hold in confidence and not use or disclose any information provided to or learned by the Pfizer Board Observer in his/her capacity as an observer of the Board of Managers, except (i) that this Section §8.3(b) shall not be deemed to prevent the investment, legal, finance, tax, accounting and audit personnel of Pfizer and its Affiliates from obtaining access to such information relating to the financial condition of the Company solely for the purpose of managing, evaluating and reporting on Pfizer’s investment in the Company and (ii) as otherwise required by law or requested by any governmental, regulatory or other legal authority, provided that the Pfizer Board Observer, Pfizer and its Affiliates will promptly notify the Company of such disclosure and take reasonable steps to minimize the extent of any such required or requested disclosure and seek confidential treatment for the information so disclosed to the extent practicable, and Pfizer shall be responsible and liable for any failure of the Pfizer Board Observer to comply with this obligation. In addition, at the request of the Company, the Pfizer Board Observer shall execute and deliver a non-disclosure agreement that is, in form and substance, reasonably satisfactory to the Company and not more restrictive than this Section §8.3(b).

(c) Notwithstanding anything express or implied in Section §8.3 hereof to the contrary, the Company and the Board or any committee of the Board shall have the right (i) to exclude the Pfizer Board Observer from any meeting (or any portion of any meeting) of the Board or such committee and/or (ii) to withhold from the Pfizer Board Observer any and all information that is made available to any of the members of the Board of Managers or any such committee, in each case only to the extent that the Board of Managers or such committee makes a good faith reasonable determination that such exclusion or withholding is (x) necessary or prudent in order to preserve the attorney-client privilege and/or (y) necessary or prudent in order to prevent any actual or potential conflict of interest involving the Pfizer Board Observer or Pfizer from arising. For purposes of this Section §8.3(c), there shall not be deemed to be an actual or potential conflict of interest involving the Pfizer Board Observer or Pfizer with respect to any meeting (or portion of any meeting) of the Board of Managers or any such committee unless the Board of Managers or such committee at such meeting will be discussing or considering (1) any research or development program or product of the Company that is directly competitive with any research or development program that Pfizer, to the knowledge of the Pfizer Board Observer, is pursuing on its own or with third parties or with any product that Pfizer is

commercializing on its own or with third parties or (2) any potential or proposed licensing, partnering or acquisition transaction with respect to any research or development program or product of the Company or the Company as a whole involving a competitive bidding process in which Pfizer is one of the bidding parties, and the Board of Managers or such committee shall also have the right to withhold from the Pfizer Board Observer any and all information that is made available to any of the members of the Board of Managers or such committee with respect to any of the matters referred to in the foregoing clauses (1) and (2). For purposes of this Section §8.3(c) a particular research or development program or product shall not be deemed to be directly competitive with another research or development program or product unless such programs or products are directed to the same biological target.

(d) The Company acknowledges that certain of the Preferred Members are in the business of venture capital investing and therefore review the business plans and related proprietary information of many enterprises, including enterprises that may have products or services that compete directly or indirectly with those of the Company. Nothing in this Agreement, the Right of the Refusal and Co Sale Agreement or the Investors’ Rights Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Agreements”) shall preclude or in any way restrict the Preferred Members from investing or participating in any particular enterprise, whether or not such enterprise has products or services that compete with those of the Company. Further, the Company, each Preferred Member, and each Common Member acknowledges and agrees that (i) Pfizer or any of its Affiliates may presently have, or may engage in the future in, internal development programs, or may receive information from third parties that relates to, and may develop and commercialize products independently or in cooperation with such third parties, that are similar to or that are directly or indirectly competitive with, the Company’s development programs, products or services, and (ii) the participation of the Pfizer Board Observer in meetings of the Board of Managers, or the exercise by Pfizer of any rights under this Agreement or any of the Transaction Agreements, shall not in any way preclude or restrict Pfizer from conducting any development program, commercializing any product or service or otherwise engaging in any enterprise, whether or not such development program, product, service or enterprise competes with those of the Company, so long as such activities do not result in, or are the result of, a violation of the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement.

§8.4. Vote to Increase Authorized Common Units. Each Member agrees to vote or cause to be voted all Units owned by such Member, or over which such Member has voting control, from time to time and at all times, in whatever manner as shall be necessary to increase the number of authorized Common Units from time to time to ensure that there will be sufficient Common Units available for conversion of all of the Preferred Units outstanding pursuant to Section §4.11.

§10.2. Special Allocations Where Common Members Are Admitted with Deferred Initial Capital Contributions. Notwithstanding Section 10.1, all items that would otherwise be allocated pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.1 in respect of Common Units with respect to which there is a Deferred Initial Capital Contribution (“Deferred Contribution Common Units”) shall be reallocated in accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 10.1 as if the Deferred Contribution Common Units were not outstanding, until the total net income so reallocated with respect to a Deferred Contribution Common Unit is equal to the amount of the Deferred Initial Capital Contribution with respect to such Deferred Contribution Common Unit.

The Net Loss that would, in the absence of the preceding sentence, be allocated to such Member shall be reallocated to the other Members in accordance with Section 10.1(b), subject to the limitations of this Section 10.6. Any losses that cannot be allocated to any Member in conformity with the two preceding sentences shall be allocated among the Members based on the number of Units held by each

The Members agree that, to the fullest extent possible with respect to the allocation of depreciation and gain for federal income tax purposes, Section 704(c) of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(b) shall apply with respect to non-cash property contributed to the Company by any Member. For purposes hereof, any allocation of income, loss, gain or any item thereof to a Member pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code shall affect only the Member’s tax basis in the Member’s Company interest and shall not affect the Member’s Capital Account. In addition to the foregoing, if Company assets are reflected in the Capital Accounts of the Members at a book value that differs from the adjusted tax basis of the assets (e.g., because of a revaluation of the Members’ Capital Accounts under Treasury Regulations § 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)), allocations of depreciation, amortization, income, gain or loss with respect to such property shall be made among the Members in a manner consistent with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code, Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(b), and this Section 10.7.

§10.8. Rights of Non-Members to Allocations. The rights of the Members under this Article X shall be subject to the rights of Withdrawn Members under Section 7.2(a) hereof and to the rights under Section 7.4(d) hereof of assignees of Units who are not admitted as substitute Members pursuant to Section 7.5 hereof.

§10.9. Offset of Regulatory Allocations. The allocations set forth in Sections 10.2 through §10.6 (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Section 704(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. 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 10.9. Accordingly, and notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article X (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Board of Managers shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction (computed with the adjustments set forth in the definition of “Net Income” and “Net Loss”) among the Members (in the same year, and, to the extent necessary, subsequent years) in a manner consistent with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2 and otherwise as the Board of Managers deems appropriate so that, following such offsetting allocations (including reasonably anticipated allocations that are to be made in future periods (e.g., minimum gain chargebacks)), 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 Section 10.1.

ARTICLE XI

DISTRIBUTIONS

§11.1. Tax Distributions. The Company shall distribute to each Member, within fifteen (15) days after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Company, an amount equal to such Member’s Tax Amount (as estimated in good faith by the Board of Managers) for such fiscal quarter, if such amount is materially greater than zero (each such distribution, a “Tax Distribution”). If the aggregate Tax Distributions to any Member with respect to any Fiscal Year are determined to be less than such Member’s actual Tax Amount for such Fiscal Year (a “Shortfall Amount”), the Company shall distribute such Shortfall Amount to such Member. The Company shall use its best efforts to distribute Shortfall Amounts with respect to a Fiscal Year before the 90th day of the next succeeding Fiscal Year, and Shortfall Amounts shall thereafter be treated for all purposes hereunder as Tax Distributions for the Fiscal Year to which they relate. If the aggregate Tax Distributions to any Member pursuant to this Section 11.1 with respect to any Fiscal Year exceed the Member’s actual Tax Amount (including by reason of such Tax Amount being less than zero), such excess shall be treated as an advance against and shall be deducted from the next succeeding Tax Distributions otherwise payable to such Member until such excess has been fully deducted from such Tax Distributions. Tax Distributions shall take precedence and priority over all other distributions hereunder; provided, however, that in the event that Available Cash is not sufficient to meet in full the Company’s obligations with respect to any Tax Distribution, Available Cash shall be distributed in proportion to the Company’s obligation to make Tax Distributions. The rights of the Members under this Section 11.1 shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11.4 below.

§11.2. Distributions of Available Cash. Within 90 days following the end of each Fiscal Year, (i) the Board of Managers shall determine whether there is any Available Cash and shall also determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, whether all or any portion of such Available Cash should be distributed to the Members (the “Section 11.2 Distributable Amount”) and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 5.13(a) and Section 11.3 hereof, the Company shall make a cash distribution to the Members equal, in the aggregate, to the Section 11.2 Distributable Amount with respect to such Fiscal Year. The Section 10.2 Distributable Amount for each Fiscal Year of the Company shall be distributed in the following order and priority (unless the Majority Preferred Members elect otherwise by written notice sent to the Company at least five (5) days prior to the distribution date of the Section 11.2 Distributable Amount):

(a) First, to the Series B Members, in proportion to, but only to the extent of, the aggregate Series B Preferred Return accrued and not previously otherwise returned to each Series B Member through and including the date of such distribution;

(b) Second, to the Series B Members, in proportion to, but only to the extent of, their respective Unreturned Capital Contributions;

(c) Third, to the Series A Members, in proportion to, but only to the extent of, the aggregate Series A Preferred Return accrued and not previously otherwise returned to each Series A Member through and including the date of such distribution;

(d) Fourth, to the Series A Members, in proportion to, but only to the extent of, their respective Unreturned Capital Contributions;

(e) Fifth, to the Members, in proportion to, but only to the extent of, their respective positive Economic Capital Accounts; and

(f) Sixth, to the Members, pro rata among them based upon the number of Units held by each.

§11.3. Distributions of Proceeds In Connection with a Sale of the Company.

(a) Upon consummation of any transaction or series of related transactions that constitutes or constitute a Sale of the Company, the cash, property, assets, rights, securities or other consideration available for distribution to the Members pursuant to such Sale of the Company shall be distributed among the Members in the following order and priority (unless the Majority Preferred Members elect otherwise by written notice sent to the Company at least five (5) days prior to the date of the consummation of such Sale of the Company):

(i) First, to the Series B Members, in proportion to, but only to the extent of, the aggregate Series B Preferred Return accrued and not previously otherwise returned to each Series B Member through and including the date of such distribution;

(ii) Second, to the Series B Members, in proportion to, but only to the extent of, their respective Unreturned Capital Contributions;

(iii) Third, to the Series A Members, in proportion to, but only to the extent of, the aggregate Series A Preferred Return accrued and not previously otherwise returned to each Series A Member through and including the date of such distribution;

(iv) Fourth, to the Series A Members, in proportion to, but only to the extent of, their respective Unreturned Capital Contributions;

(v) Fifth, to the Members, in proportion to, but only to the extent of, their respective positive Economic Capital Accounts

(vi) Sixth, to the Members, pro rata among them based upon the number of Units held by each.

(b) The Company shall not have the power to effect either a merger or consolidation transaction or an asset sale transaction that, in either case, qualifies as a Sale of the Company unless the consideration available for distribution to the Members pursuant to such transaction is allocated among Members in accordance with Section 11.3(a).

(c) In the event of a sale of outstanding Units transaction that qualifies as a Sale of the Company, the Company shall effect a dissolution within ninety days after the consummation of such transaction and the proceeds of such dissolution shall be distributed to the Members pursuant to, and in accordance with, the provisions of Section 11.3(a) hereof instead of Section 14.3(b) hereof.

(d) The amount deemed paid or distributed to the Members pursuant to this Section 11.3 upon any Sale of the Company shall be the cash or the value of the property, rights or securities paid or distributed to the Members by the Company or the acquiring Person. The value of such property, rights or securities shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Managers (including the Preferred Managers). To the extent that assets are distributed in kind by the Company pursuant to this Section 11.3 or Section 14.3, the Company shall adjust the Members’ Capital Accounts pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) to reflect the difference between the book value and fair market value of the assets so distributed.

(e) In the event of a Sale of the Company, if any portion of the consideration or other amounts payable to the Members pursuant to this Section 11.3 is placed into escrow and/or is payable to the Members subject to contingencies, the Company shall cause the definitive agreement in connection with such Sale of the Company to provide that (or, in the case of amounts payable by the Company pursuant to Section 11.3(c), the Company shall cause) (a) the portion of such consideration or other amounts that is not placed in escrow and not subject to any contingencies (the “Non-Contingent Payments”) shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with this Section 11.3 as if the Non-Contingent Payments were the only consideration or other payments payable in connection with such sale of the Company or pursuant to Section 11.3(c) and (b) any additional consideration or other payments which become payable to the Members upon release from escrow or satisfaction of contingencies shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with this Section 11.3 after taking into account the payment of the Non-Contingent Payments as part of the same transaction.

§11.4. Limitations on Distributions.

(a) The provisions of Section 11.2 shall not apply to any distributions to Members of proceeds from the Sale of the Company or to any distributions to Members pursuant to Section 14.3 hereof.

(b) Tax Distributions to a Member shall be treated as an advance against and, subject to the definition of Unreturned Capital Contributions, shall reduce any distributions to which the Member would otherwise be entitled pursuant to Section

11.2, Section 11.3 or Section 14.3, except to the extent that such Tax Distributions have already been taken into account under this Section 11.4(b).

(c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not make a distribution to any Member in respect of such Member’s ownership of Units if such distribution would violate the Delaware Act or other applicable law.

(d) The rights of the Members under this Article XI shall be subject to the rights of Withdrawn Members under Section 7.2(a) hereof and to the rights under Section 7.4(d) hereof of assignees of Units who are not admitted as substitute Members pursuant to Section 7.5 hereof.

§11.5. Employment. In addition to distributions otherwise described herein, the Members shall be entitled to be compensated by the Company for services rendered to the Company in their capacities as officers or employees of or consultants to the Company, pursuant to and in accordance with such Members’ respective employment or consulting arrangements.

§11.6. Withholding. The Company is authorized to withhold from distributions or other payments to a Member, or with respect to allocations to a Member, and to pay over to a governmental authority, any amounts required to be withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any other applicable law. Any amounts so withheld shall be treated as distributed to such Member pursuant to this Article XI for all purposes of this Agreement at the time it is paid to that governmental authority and shall be applied against and shall reduce the amount of the applicable and/or the next distributions to which the Member would otherwise be entitled pursuant to this Article XI.
