1.3 Business and Purpose of the Company. The purpose of the Company is to (i) purchase, manufacture, lease and sell, either directly or through one or more special purposes entities, the Equipment, (ii) engage in any other activities relating or incidental thereto as may be necessary to accomplish such purpose and (iii) engage in such other activities as determined by the Manager which are allowed under Nevada law.

1.5 Required Filings. The Manager shall execute, acknowledge, file, record, amend and/or publish such certificates and documents, as may be required by this Agreement or by law in connection with the formation and operation of the Company.

1.6 Registered Office and Registered Agent. The Company’s initial registered office and initial registered agent shall be as provided in the Certificate of Formation. The registered office and registered agent may be changed from time to time by the Manager by filing the address of the new registered office and/or the name of the new registered agent pursuant to the Act.

1.7 Certain Transactions. Any Manager, Owner or any Affiliate thereof, or any shareholder, officer, director, employee, partner, member, manager or any Person owning an interest therein, may engage in or possess an interest in any other business or venture of any nature or description, whether or not competitive with the Company, including, but not limited to, the operation of a business similar to the Business and no Manager, Owner or any Affiliate, or other Person shall have any interest in such other business or venture by reason of their interest in the Company.

1.8 Proprietary Information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Members acknowledge that Vivakor has indicated that Vivakor created, cultivated and owns the tradenames and trademarks relating to the name “Vivakor” and the proposed business of Vivakor and the Company (the “Proprietary Information”). The parties agree that Vivakor shall retain the ownership of the Proprietary Information and that in the event Vivakor is removed as an officer or consultant, the Company shall no longer use the Proprietary Information.

2. Definitions. Definitions for this Agreement are set forth on Exhibit A and are incorporated herein.

3. Capitalization and Financing.

3.1 Manager’s Capital Contribution. The Manager shall not be required to make a Capital Contribution to the Company.

3.2 Members’ Capital Contributions.

3.2.1 Initial Member. The Initial Member shall contribute the sum of $100 in cash to the Company, but shall not receive any Units therefor. On the first business day following the admission of additional Members, the Initial Member’s $100 Capital Contribution will be returned, and the Initial Member shall cease to be a Member. The Members hereby consent to the Initial Member’s withdrawal of the Initial Member’s Capital Contribution and waive any right, claim or action they may have against the Initial Member by reason of the Initial Member having been a Member.

3.2.2 Convertible Note and Units. The Company is hereby authorized to sell and issue not less than 10 and not more than 5,000 Units at a purchase price of $5,000 per Unit and to admit the Persons who acquire such Units as Members. Persons who seek to purchase the Units will first enter into a Convertible Memorandum of Indebtedness (the “Convertible Note”), which is a convertible note that is convertible into the Units, with a maturity date of the lesser of when the Equipment commences quality control or testing production or six months (the “Convertible Note Maturity Date”), at which time the note automatically converts to the sale and purchase of the Units. The minimum purchase shall be 10Convertible Notes, which convert into 10 Units, except that the Company may, in its sole discretion, sell and issue Convertible Notes in increments of less than 10. In no event shall the Company have more than 1,950 Owners. The Offering shall terminate on the Offering Termination Date. The Company will not sell 25% or more of the Units to Employee Benefit Plans. The Convertible Note shall bear an interest rate of 12% per annum, and the Company shall accrue and pay interest in cash on a quarterly basis from a reserve set aside from the Convertible Note proceeds specifically for these interest payments (the “Interest Payments”). The Interest Payments shall terminate at the Convertible Note Maturity Date to Units at which time no further Interest Payments will accrue. One Convertible Note shall be converted into one Unit.

3.2.3 Payment of Purchase Price. The purchase price of each Convertible Note shall be paid in full in cash at the time of execution of the Subscription Agreement. Payment of the purchase price for a Convertible Note (and after the conversion of the Convertible Notes to the Units) shall constitute the Member’s initial Capital Contribution. As described in the Memorandum, Units may be sold to certain Persons for a contribution to the Company that is net of up to 7% per Convertible Note in the event that the Company is not obligated to pay some or all of the 7% selling commission normally paid to a broker-dealer in connection with the sale of these Convertible Notes.

3.2.4 Subscription Agreement Documents and Auto Conversion. Each Person desiring to acquire Convertible Notes shall tender to the Company a Subscription Agreement for the number of Convertible Notes desired, together with the correct full subscription payment for the Convertible Notes so subscribed (the “Subscription Payment”). The Company shall accept or reject each Subscription Agreement within 30 days after the Company receives the same (and the failure by the Company to accept a Subscription Agreement within the 30-day period shall constitute a rejection thereof). If rejected, all Subscription Payments shall be returned to the subscriber. Acceptance of a Subscription Agreement shall be evidenced by the execution of the Subscription Agreement by the Manager. Subject to Section 3.2.6, upon the acceptance of a Subscription Agreement, the accompanying Subscription Payment shall become a liability until the liability automatically converts into Units at the Convertible Note Maturity Date, at which time it shall become a Capital Contribution by such subscriber; provided, however, prior to the Company accepting subscriptions for at least the Minimum Offering Amount. Upon the Offering Termination Date, all Capital Contributions accepted for any series will automatically convert to Vivakor common stock if the Company has not accepted subscriptions for at least $6,250,000 for that series of Equipment (the “Automatic Stock Conversion”). The Company intends to manufacture four series of Equipment, including Series A, B, C and D. The Company will first seek to fully subscribe Series A, then Series B, then Series C, then Series D, with each series fully subscribed at $6,250,000. The conversion price of the Automatic Stock Conversion is the greater of $0.45 per share or the share price based on the 30-day average share price of Vivakor common stock discounted by 10%. The shares issued in the Automatic Stock Conversion will carry a trade restriction for a period of two years after the date of conversion, in which the holder of the common stock will not, in any 90 day period sell a greater number of shares than 10% of 10 day average trading volume at the time of the proposed sale. If the company undertakes an underwritten public offering of stock, each holder will be required to comply with a six (6) month market stand-off agreement.

3.2.5 Manager and its Affiliates as Member. The Manager and/or its Affiliates may acquire any number of Units for any reason deemed appropriate by the Manager for the same price and upon the same terms and conditions, subject to Section 3.2.3, as all other purchasers thereof; provided, however, that the Manager shall not acquire more than 10% of the Units sold and shall not acquire any Units until the Company has accepted Subscription Payments for at least the Minimum Offering Amount. Certain Affiliates of the Manager and their officers and directors may acquire additional Units. In such event, the Manager or its Affiliates will be admitted to the Company as Members with respect to such Units and will be entitled to all rights as Members appurtenant thereto, including but not limited to, the right to vote on certain Company matters as provided for in this Agreement and to receive Distributions and allocations attributable to the Units so purchased. Any interest of the Manager or its Affiliate as a Member shall be separately designated by listing the Manager or its Affiliate in the roster of Members with respect to its Units.

3.2.6 Admission of Members. The Manager shall amend this Agreement and take such other action as the Manager deems necessary or appropriate promptly after receipt of the Members’ Capital Contributions to the Company to reflect the admission of those Persons to the Company as Members.

3.2.7 Liabilities of Members. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, neither the Manager nor any Member shall be required to make any additional contributions to the Company and no Manager or Member shall be liable for the debts, liabilities, contracts or any other obligations of the Company, by reason of being a Manager or Member of the Company, nor shall the Manager or the Members be required to lend any funds to the Company or to repay to the Company, the Manager or any Member, or any creditor of the Company any portion or all of any deficit balance in a Member’s Capital Account.

3.2.8 Cancellation of Offering. If the Company has not accepted Subscription Payments for the Minimum Offering Amount on or before November 13, 2021, the Offering shall be cancelled and all Subscription Payments received shall be promptly refunded to the subscribers.

3.2.9 Escrow Account. After acceptance of any tendered Subscription Agreement by the Company, the accompanying Subscription Payment shall be, prior to the Escrow Release Date, placed in a non-interest-bearing escrow account (“Escrow Account”) and held there until such time as Subscription Payments for the Minimum Offering Amount have been deposited in the Escrow Account (“Escrow Release Date”). Upon the sale of the Minimum Offering Amount, funds in the Escrow Account shall be released to the Company.

3.3 Manager Loans. The Manager and its Affiliates may, but will have no obligation to, make loans to the Company. Any such loan shall bear interest at a rate equal to the lesser of 10% or the maximum interest rate permitted by applicable law and provide for the payment of principal and any accrued but unpaid interest in accordance with the terms of the promissory note evidencing such loan, but in no event later than the dissolution of the Company.

3.4 Company Loans. The Company may obtain or assume, in the sole discretion of the Manager, loans to operate or refinance the Business.

3.5 Additional Capital Contributions. The Manager is hereby authorized to cause the Company to issue additional Units or an additional class of units (the “Additional Interests”) at any time or from time to time, to the Members or to other Persons for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as shall be established by the Manager in its sole discretion without approval of the Members. Any Additional Interests issued hereby may be issued in one or more classes, or one or more series of any such classes, with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or special rights, powers and duties, including rights, powers and duties senior to any other units, as determined by the Manager in its sole discretion without the approval of any Member. In the event that any Additional Interests are issued, the Manager shall have the power and authority to amend this Agreement to reflect the changes applicable to such issuance, including, but not limited to, changes to adjust the Book Value of the existing Capital Accounts and amending the allocations and Distributions to reflect the issuance of the newly issued Additional Interests. No Additional Interests may be offered or sold to any Person that does not meet all qualifications under applicable federal or state securities laws, rules and regulations in order for such offer and sale to qualify as exempt from all federal and state registration requirements or if such offer or sale would otherwise violate the terms of this Agreement.

4. Allocation of Tax Items.

4.1 Allocation of Net Income and Net Loss. For each fiscal year, the Net Income and Net Loss of the Company shall be allocated as follows:

4.1.1 Net Income. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 4.2 and 4.3, Net Income for any fiscal year shall be allocated as follows:

(a) First, 100% to the Members until the Net Income allocated to the Members pursuant to this Section 4.1.1(a) for such fiscal year and all previous fiscal years is equal to the aggregate Net Loss allocated to the Members pursuant to Section 4.1.2(b) for all previous fiscal years;

(b) Second, 100% to the Members in proportion to their accrued but unallocated Preferred Return, until the Members have been allocated an amount equal to their accrued but unallocated Preferred Return; and

4.1.2 Net Loss. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 4.2 and 4.3, Net Loss for any fiscal year shall be allocated as follows:

(a) First, to the Members so that loss allocations for all fiscal years are proportional to the Members’ pro rata Unit ownership until all losses are allocated pro rata in proportion to the Members’ Unit ownership; and

(b) Thereafter, to the Members in proportion to their Units; provided that Net Loss shall not be allocated to any Member to the extent such allocation would cause such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of a fiscal year.

4.2 Special Allocations.

4.2.1 Qualified Income Offset. Except as provided in Section 4.2.3, in the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit created by such adjustment, allocation or distribution as quickly as possible.

4.2.2 Gross Income Allocation. Net Loss shall not be allocated to any Member to the extent such allocation would cause such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of a fiscal year. In the event any Member has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any fiscal year, each such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company gross income and gain in the amount of such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as quickly as possible.

4.2.3 Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Company fiscal year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(2). This Section 4.2.3 is intended to comply with the partnership minimum gain chargeback requirement in the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. This provision shall not apply to the extent the Member’s share of net decrease in Company Minimum Gain is caused by a guaranty, refinancing or other change in the debt instrument causing it to become partially or wholly recourse debt or Member Nonrecourse Debt, and such Member bears the economic risk of loss (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-2) for the newly guaranteed, refinanced or otherwise changed debt or to the extent the Member contributes cash to the capital of the Company that is used to repay the Nonrecourse Debt, and the Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain results from the repayment.

4.2.4 Member Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4, except Section 4.2.3, if there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain, any Member with a share of that Member Minimum Gain (as determined under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5)) as of the beginning of the year shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(2). This Section shall not apply to the extent the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain arises because the liability ceases to be Member Nonrecourse Debt due to conversion, refinancing or other change in a debt instrument that causes it to become partially or wholly a Nonrecourse Debt. This Section is intended to comply with the partner minimum gain chargeback requirements in the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith and applied with the restrictions attributable thereto.

4.2.5 Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year or other period shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their Units and each Member’s share of excess Nonrecourse Debt shall be in the same proportion.

4.2.6 Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss as set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-2 with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt. If more than one Member bears the economic risk of loss for a Member Nonrecourse Debt, any Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable to that Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated among the Members according to the ratio in which they bear the economic risk of loss.

4.2.7 Code Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the Treasury Regulations.

4.3 Curative Allocations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating 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.

4.4 Contributed Property. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Manager shall cause depreciation and/or cost recovery deductions and gain or loss attributable to Property contributed by a Member or revalued by the Company to be allocated among the Members for income tax purposes in accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

4.5 Commission Discounts. In the event any Member receives a commission discount as described in Section 3.2.3, such Member shall be treated upon liquidation of the Company as if such Member had not received a discount and an appropriate income allocation shall be made to such Member so that all liquidating Distributions (other than Preferred Return) to the Members per Unit are equal.

4.6 Recapture Income. The portion of each Member’s distributive share of Net Income that is characterized as ordinary income pursuant to Code Sections 1245 or 1250 shall be proportionate to the amount of Net Income or Net Loss which included the corresponding depreciation deductions that were allocated to such Member as compared with the amount of depreciation deductions allocated to all Members.

4.7 Allocation Among Units. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all Distributions and allocations made to the Members shall be in the ratio of the number of Units held by each Member on the date of such allocation (which allocation date shall be deemed to be the last day of each month) to the total outstanding Units as of such date, and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement without regard to the number of days during such month that the Units were held by each Member. Members who acquire Units at different times during the Company tax year shall be allocated Net Income and Net Loss using the monthly convention set forth in Section 4.9.1. For purposes of this Section 4 and Section 5, an Economic Interest Owner shall be treated as a Member.

4.8 Allocation of Company Items. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever a proportionate part of Net Income or Net Loss is allocated to a Member, every item of income, gain, loss or deduction entering into the computation of such Net Income or Net Loss, and every item of credit or tax preference related to such allocation and applicable to the period during which such Net Income or Net Loss was realized shall be allocated to the Member in the same proportion.

4.9 Assignment.

4.9.1 In the event of the assignment of a Unit, the Net Income and Net Loss shall be allocated as between the Member and its assignee based upon the number of months of their respective ownership during the year in which the assignment occurs, without regard to the results of the Company’s operations during the period before or after such assignment. Distributions shall be made to the holder of record of the Units as of the date of the Distribution. An assignee who receives Units during the first 15 days of a month will receive any allocations relative to such month. An assignee who acquires Units on or after the 16th day of a month will be treated as acquiring the Units on the first day of the following month.

4.9.2 In the event of the assignment of the Manager’s interest, the allocations of Net Income or Net Loss shall be as agreed between the Manager and its assignee. In the absence of an agreement, the Net Income, Net Loss and Distributions shall be allocated in a manner similar to that provided in Section 4.9.1.

4.10 Power of Manager to Vary Allocations. It is the intent of the Members that each Member’s share of Net Income and Net Loss be determined and allocated in accordance with Code Section 704(b) and the provisions of this Agreement shall be so interpreted. Therefore, if the Company is advised by the Company’s legal counsel that the allocations provided in this Section 4 are unlikely to be respected for federal income tax purposes, the Manager is hereby granted the power to amend the allocation provisions of this Agreement to the minimum extent necessary to comply with Code Section 704(b) and effect the plan of allocations and Distributions provided for in this Agreement.

4.11 Consent of Members. The allocation methods of Net Income and Net Loss are hereby expressly consented to by each Member as a condition of becoming a Member.

4.12 Withholding Obligations.

4.12.1 If the Company is required (as determined by the Manager) to make a payment (“Tax Payment”) with respect to any Member to discharge any legal obligation of the Company or the Manager to make payments to any governmental authority with respect to any federal, foreign, state or local tax liability of such Member arising as a result of such Member’s interest in the Company, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the amount of any such Tax Payment shall be deemed to be a loan by the Company to such Member, which loan shall bear interest at the Prime Rate and be payable upon demand or by offset to any Distribution which otherwise would be made to such Member.

4.12.2 If and to the extent the Company is required to make any Tax Payment with respect to any Member, or elects to make payment on any loan described in Section 4.12.1 by offset to a Distribution to a Member, either (i) such Member’s proportionate share of such Distribution shall be reduced by the amount of such Tax Payment or offset or (ii) such Member shall pay to the Company prior to such Distribution an amount of cash equal to such Tax Payment or offset. In the event a portion of a Distribution in kind is retained by the Company pursuant to clause (i) above, such retained Property may, in the discretion of the Manager, either (A) be distributed to the other Members or (B) be sold by the Company to generate the cash necessary to satisfy such Tax Payment. If the Property is sold, then for purposes of income tax allocations only under this Agreement, any gain or loss from such sale or exchange shall be allocated to the Member to whom the Tax Payment relates. If the Property is sold at a gain, and the Company is required to make any Tax Payment on such gain, the Member to whom the gain is allocated shall pay the Company prior to the due date of the Tax Payment an amount of cash equal to such Tax Payment.

In accordance with the Act, an Owner may, under certain circumstances, be required to return to the Company, for the benefit of the Company’s creditors, amounts previously distributed to the Owner. If any court of competent jurisdiction holds that any Owner is obligated to make any such payment, such obligation shall be the obligation of such Owner and not of the Company, the Manager or any other Owner.

8.8 Indemnification of the Members. The Company shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless the Members, in their capacity as Members (as opposed to the Manager which is indemnified pursuant to Section 7.7 in its capacity as the Manager), and their owners, Affiliates, officers, directors, partners, managers, employees, agents, assigns, principals and trustees (each an “Indemnified Party”), from and against any loss, liability, damage, cost or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred in defense of any demands, claims or lawsuits) arising from actions or omissions concerning business or activities undertaken by or on behalf of the Company from any source. The Company shall advance to any Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section such funds as shall be required to pay reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred in defense of any demands, claims or lawsuits as they become due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the claim for indemnification is in connection with an action against the Company, or against another Indemnified Party by the Person requesting the indemnification, the Company shall have no such obligation to advance any funds for the payment of legal fees and expenses. The obligations contained herein shall survive the termination or expiration of the Agreement until such time as an action against the Members is absolutely barred by the statute of limitations.

8.9 Deemed Approval. Whenever a Majority Vote is required in this Agreement, the Company shall provide the Members with notice of such required vote, and the Members shall have 15 days after the date such notice is sent by the Company to approve or disapprove of the matter. If a Member does not disapprove of such matter within the 15-day specified response period described above, the Member shall be deemed to have voted in accordance with the vote recommended by the Manager.

9. Resignation, Withdrawal or Removal of the Manager.

9.1 Resignation or Withdrawal of Manager. Subject to Section 10, the Manager shall not resign or withdraw as the Manager or do any act that would require its resignation or withdrawal without a Majority Vote.

9.2 Removal. The Manager may be removed by a Majority Vote only (i) for fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Manager, as evidenced by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) upon the occurrence of an Event of Insolvency of the Manager. Removal of the Manager shall not be effective until the Manager receives in cash the full value of its interest in the Company and all lenders have released the Manager from all liabilities and obligations under any loan made to the Company or the Company’s Affiliates.

9.3 Purchase of Manager’s Interest. Upon the removal of the Manager pursuant to Section 9.2 or its withdrawal with the approval of a Majority Vote, (i) the removed Manager’s interest in the Distributions and allocations of Net Income and Net Loss set forth in this Agreement, (ii) its interest in its right to the earned but unpaid fees and other compensation remaining to be paid under this Agreement and (iii) the Manager’s or any Affiliate’s interest as a Member, shall be purchased by the Company for a purchase price equal to the aggregate fair market value of the Manager’s interest determined according to the provisions of Section 9.4; provided, however, that in the event the Manager is removed as a result of fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction, the purchase price shall be reduced by any damages caused by any such fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The purchase price of such interest shall be paid by the Company to the Manager in cash within 30 days of the determination of the aggregate fair market value.

9.4 Purchase Price of the Manager’s Interest. The fair market value of the Manager’s interest to be purchased by the Company pursuant to Section 9.3 shall be determined by agreement between the Manager and the Company, which agreement is subject to approval by a Majority Vote. For this purpose, the fair market value of the interest of the terminated Manager shall be computed as the present value of the future amount which could reasonably be expected to be realized by such Manager upon the sale of the Company’s assets in the ordinary course of business at the time of removal, including the Manager’s or any Affiliate’s interest as a Member. If the Manager and the Company cannot agree upon the fair market value of such Company interest within 30 days, the fair market value thereof shall be determined by appraisal, the Company and the terminated Manager each to choose one appraiser and the 2 appraisers so chosen to choose a third appraiser. The decision of a majority of the appraisers as to the fair market value of such Company interest shall be final and binding and may be enforced by legal proceedings. The terminated Manager and the Company shall each compensate the appraiser appointed by it and the compensation of the third appraiser shall be borne equally by such parties.

10. Assignment of the Manager’s Interest.

10.1 Permitted Assignments. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Manager may not sell or otherwise transfer any part or all of its interest in the Company except with a Majority Vote. If the Members consent to the transfer, the interest may only be sold to the proposed transferee within the time period approved by the Members, or within 90 days of such consent on the proposed terms and price, if later. All costs of the transfer, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (if any), shall be borne by the transferring Manager. Notwithstanding the above, the Manager may encumber its interest without the consent of the Members.

10.1.1 Any assignment or transfer of the Manager’s interest provided for by this Agreement can be an assignment or transfer of all of its interest or any portion or part of its interest.

10.1.2 Any transfer of all or a part of the Manager’s interest may be made only pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in this Section 10.

10.1.4 The assignor and assignee shall have executed, acknowledged, and delivered such other instruments as the Members pursuant to a Majority Vote, may deem necessary or desirable to effect such substitution of any such proposed transfer, and which shall include the written acceptance and adoption by the assignee of the provisions of this Agreement.

11. Assignment of Units.

11.1 Permitted Assignments. A Member may only sell, assign, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise transfer any part (but not less than the lesser of (i) one Unit or (ii) the Member’s entire interest in the Company) or all of its Units if the following requirements are satisfied:

11.1.1 The Manager, in its sole discretion, consents in writing to the transfer;

11.1.3 No Member shall have the right to transfer any Unit to any minor or to any Person who, for any reason, lacks the capacity to contract for himself under applicable law. Such limitations shall not, however, restrict the right of any Member to transfer any one or more Units to a custodian or a trustee for a minor or other Person who lacks such contractual capacity;

11.1.4 The Manager, with advice of counsel, must determine that such transfer will not jeopardize the applicability of the exemptions from the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, and registration or qualification under state securities laws relied upon by the Company and Manager in offering and selling the Units or otherwise violate any federal or state securities laws;

11.1.5 The Manager, with advice of counsel, must determine that, despite such transfer, Units will qualify for one of the safe harbors described in the Treasury Regulations related to the publicly traded partnership rules and will not cause the Company’s Units to be deemed to be “traded on an established securities market” or “readily tradable on a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” under the provisions applicable to publicly traded partnership status. In making this determination, the Manager shall be entitled to limit any transfers so that the transfers comply with one of the safe harbors in the Treasury Regulations; provided, however that the Manager may, in its sole discretion and upon a determination that the Company will not be treated as a publicly traded partnership for federal income tax purposes, permit transfers that do not qualify for one of the safe harbors;

11.1.6 Any such transfer shall be by a written instrument of assignment, the terms of which are not in contravention of any of the provisions of this Agreement, and which has been duly executed by the assignor of such Units and accepted by the Manager in writing. Upon such acceptance by the Manager, such an assignee shall take subject to all terms of this Agreement and shall become an Economic Interest Owner;

11.1.7 A transfer fee shall be paid by the transferring Member in such amount as may be required by the Manager to cover all reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees and lender’s fees, connected with such assignment;

11.1.8 The transfer will not result in Employee Benefit Plans owning 25% or more of the Units;

11.1.9 The transfer will not result in more than 1,950 Owners; and

11.1.10 The transfer will not cause a default with respect to any financing obtained by the Company.

11.2 Substituted Member.

11.2.1 Conditions to be Satisfied. No Economic Interest Owner shall have the right to become a Substituted Member unless the Manager shall consent thereto in accordance with Section 11.2.2 and all of the following conditions are satisfied:

(c) A transfer fee sufficient to cover all reasonable expenses connected with such substitution shall have been paid to the Company.

11.3 Rights of Economic Interest Owner. An Economic Interest Owner shall be entitled to receive Distributions from the Company attributable to the Units acquired by reason of such assignment from and after the effective date of the assignment; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to treat the assignor of such Units as the absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for allocations of Net Income and Net Loss or Distributions, or for the transmittal of reports or other information until the written instrument of assignment has been received by the Company and recorded on its books. The effective date of such assignment shall be the date on which all of the requirements of this Section have been complied with, subject to Section 4.9.

11.4 Right to Inspect Books. Economic Interest Owners shall have no right to inspect the Company’s books or records, to vote on Company matters, or to exercise any other right or privilege as Members, until they are admitted to the Company as Substituted Members except as required by the Act.

11.7 Conversion to Economic Interest. Upon the transfer of a Unit in violation of this Agreement, the Membership Interest of a Member shall be converted into an Economic Interest.

11.8 Exit Opportunities. Beginning on the 3^rd, 4^th, and 5^th anniversary of the Offering Termination Date (each, a “Conversion Determination Date”), each Member shall have the right to sell its respective Units held to Vivakor, and Vivakor will have sole discretion as to whether it pays for the Units in cash or Vivakor common stock (the “Conversion Right”). The price for the Units is the original principal of the Convertible Notes that was converted into the Units. If Vivakor chooses to pay in common stock, the number of shares the Member will receive will be based on the price that is the greater of $0.45 per share or the 30-day average share price of Vivakor (determined on the 30 days prior to the Conversion Determination Date) discounted by 10%. The Vivakor common stock received in this manner will carry a trade restriction for a period of two years after the date of sale, in which the holder of the common stock will not, in any 90 day period sell a greater number of shares than 10% of 10 day average trading volume at the time of the proposed sale. If the company undertakes an underwritten public offering of stock, each holder of this restriction will be required to comply with a six (6) month market stand-off agreement. All conversions shall comply with all state and federal securities laws and requirements.

11.9 Call Option. As of the day after the expiration of any Conversion Determination Date (the “Call Option Exercise Date”), Vivakor shall have the option to purchase any Units owned by the Members who did not exercise the Conversion Right set forth in Section 11.8 (the “Call Option”). Within 15 days of the Call Option Exercise Date, Vivakor shall provide the Members with written notice of its election to exercise the Call Option. The purchase price of the Units to be acquired by Vivakor pursuant to the Call Option shall be the original principal of the Convertible Note that was converted into the Units. The purchase of any Units to be acquired pursuant to this Section 11.9 shall be made within 30 days of the Call Option Exercise Date (the “Call Option Closing Date”). Vivakor shall pay to the Members having their Units purchased pursuant to this Section 11.9, at Vivakor’s sole discretion, in cash or Vivakor common stock on the Call Option Closing Date. If Vivakor chooses to pay in common stock, the number of shares the Member will receive will be based on the price that is the greater of $0.45 per share or the 30-day average share price of Vivakor (determined on the 30 days prior to the Conversion Determination Date) discounted by 10%. The Vivakor common stock received in this manner will carry a trade restriction for a period of two years after the date of sale, in which the holder of the common stock will not, in any 90 day period sell a greater number of shares than 10% of 10 day average trading volume at the time of the proposed sale. If the company undertakes an underwritten public offering of stock, each holder of this restriction will be required to comply with a six (6) month market stand-off agreement. All conversions shall comply with all state and federal securities laws and requirements. Each of the Members grants to the Manager a special power of attorney in accordance with Section 14 to take all action as may be necessary or appropriate to transfer or sell such Member’s Units as provided in this Section 11.9.

12.5 Confidentiality. The Manager shall have the right to keep confidential from the Owners, for such period of time as the Manager deems reasonable, any information which the Manager reasonably believes to be in the nature of trade secrets or other information the disclosure of which the Manager in good faith believes is not in the best interest of the Company or could damage the Company or its business or which the Company is required by law or by agreement with a third party to keep confidential.

12.6 Limitations. In addition to Section 12.5, the Manager, in its sole discretion, may restrict receipt of the information identified in Section 12.2, if the Manager reasonably believes that disclosure of such information is not in the best interest of the Company or could damage the Company or its business or the requesting Member’s reason for obtaining the applicable information is, in the Manager’s sole discretion, related to the Member’s individual purposes and not for a Company purpose.

If any state or local tax law provides for a partnership representative or Person having similar rights, powers, authority or obligations, the Manager shall also serve in such capacity.

12.7.2 If any audit adjustment results in an underpayment of tax that is imputed to the Company and would be assessed and collected at the Company level in the period that the adjustment becomes final, the Company may, in the sole discretion of the Manager, elect:

(a) to pay an imputed underpayment as calculated under Code Section 6225(b) with respect to such adjustment, including interest, penalties and related tax (“Imputed Underpayment”) in the Adjustment Year or otherwise take the Internal Revenue Service adjustment into account in the Adjustment Year. The Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to reduce the amount of such Imputed Underpayment on account of the tax-exempt status (as defined in Code Section 168(h)(2)) of any Members as provided in Code Section 6225(c)(3). Each Member agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Manager from and against any liability with respect to the Member’s proportionate share of any Imputed Underpayment, regardless of whether such Member is a Member in the Adjustment Year, and to promptly pay its proportionate share of any Imputed Underpayment to the Company within 15 days following the Manager’s request for payment and any amount that is not funded shall be treated as a Tax Payment under Section 4.12.1. Each Member’s (or former Member’s) proportionate share shall be determined by the Manager in good faith taking into account each Member’s (or former Member’s) particular status, including its tax-exempt or non-United States status, its interest in the Company in the Reviewed Year, and its timely provision of information necessary to reduce the amount of Imputed Underpayment set forth in Code Section 6225(c); or

(b) under Code Section 6226(a), to cause the Company to issue adjusted Schedule K-1s or any other similar statement prescribed by the Code, Treasury Regulations or other administrative guidance published by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority to each applicable Member for the Reviewed Year, who will then be required to pay their allocable share of tax otherwise attributable to the Company.
