It is the express intent of the Members and Series Members that the Member and Manager and each and all of their Affiliates shall be and hereby are relieved of any and all fiduciary duties owed to the Member or Series Members, which might otherwise arise out of or in connection with this Agreement.

The books and records of the Company and each Series shall be kept on a GAAP basis in accordance with sound accounting practices to reflect all income and expenses of the Company or such Series, as applicable.

 

SECTION 7.2. Interest on and Return of Capital Contributions. Neither the Member nor any Series Member shall be entitled to interest on its Capital Contributions or to return of any of its Capital Contributions.

 

SECTION 7.3. Records, Audits and Reports. At the expense of the relevant Series, the Manager shall maintain separate and distinct records and accounts of the operations and expenditures of the Series as the Manager, in its sole discretion, determines to be necessary, proper or advisable. The Manager, at its expense, shall maintain records and accounts of the operations and expenditures of the Company as the Manager, in its sole discretion, determines to be necessary, proper or advisable.

 

SECTION 7.4. Tax Matters. The Member and the Series Members shall timely furnish to the Manager any U.S. federal income tax form or certification (including, without limitation, an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, together with any applicable attachments thereto) that the Manager may request and shall update or replace such form or certification in accordance with its terms or its subsequent amendments.

 

SECTION 7.5. Profits and Losses. All profits and losses of the Company shall be allocated to the Member. For purposes of clarification, profits and losses of a Series shall not be allocated pursuant to this Section 7.5, but rather shall be for the account of such Series.

 

SECTION 7.6. Tax Returns and Other Elections. The Manager shall cause the preparation and timely filing of all tax returns required to be filed by the Company or a Series pursuant to the Code and all other tax returns deemed necessary and required in each jurisdiction in which the Company or such Series does business or is otherwise subject to taxation. Copies of the returns, or pertinent information therefrom relating to the Company or a Series, shall be furnished to the Member or Series Members, as applicable, within a reasonable time after the end of each Fiscal Year of the Company or such Series, as applicable. Except as otherwise provided herein, all elections permitted to be made by the Company or a Series under federal or state laws shall be made by the Manager in its sole discretion.

 

SECTION 7.7. Company Distributions. In the event the Company has assets not associated with a Series that the Manager determines are not necessary to satisfy current or anticipated liabilities of the Company, the Manager may, in its sole discretion, distribute any or all such assets to the Member.

 

SECTION 7.8. Company Tax Classification. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Company (but not the Series, which are intended to be classified as separate corporations pursuant to Section 7.11) be disregarded as an entity, separate from the Member for federal and all relevant state and local income tax purposes, and the provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the intention. The Company and the Member shall file all tax returns and shall otherwise take all tax and financial reporting positions in a manner consistent with such treatment. No election shall be filed with the Internal Revenue Service (or the tax authorities of any State) to have the Company treated as an association taxable as a corporation for income tax purposes without the prior consent of the Manager and the consent of Person who has been a Member in any period to which such classification would apply.

 

 

SECTION 7.9. Series Distribution Priorities.

 

(a)

Distributions Generally. Distributions from a Series to its Series Members (“Distributions”) shall be made in accordance with this Article VII and shall be paid in each case to the account designated by the Series Member receiving the Distribution. A Series shall make Distributions of Available Cash (or, in accordance with Section 7.10(a) below, property of a Series on an in-kind basis) on a monthly basis, in amounts determined by the Manager, acting in its sole direction. Distributions shall be payable to all Series Members pro rata in proportion to their holdings of Series Shares; provided, that, the amount of Distributions paid to a Series Member in any given calendar month (other than liquidating distributions) shall be determined based on the number of calendar days that a Series Member owns its Series Shares in such calendar month.

 

(b)

Liquidating Distributions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VII or in Section 8.3, upon the sale of the Property or the termination and liquidation of a Series in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the proceeds of liquidation of a Series or the sale of the Property shall be distributed within ninety (90) days of the date of sale of the Property or the termination and liquidation in the following order and priority:

 

(i)

First, to creditors of such Series, including the Manager, the Member, and any Series Members who are creditors, to the extent otherwise permitted by law, in satisfaction (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof) of all debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses of such Series, including, without limitation, the expenses incurred in connection with the liquidation of such Series; and

 

(ii)

Second, to the Series Members of such Series pro rata in proportion to their holdings of Series Shares of such Series, with such Distributions to be made by the end of the Fiscal Year during which the liquidation occurs (or, if later, ninety (90) days after the date of the liquidation).

 

SECTION 7.10. Series Distribution General Principles.

 

(a)

Although the Series do not intend to make Distributions in-kind, the Manager may, in its sole discretion, cause a Series to make Distributions of property of such Series in-kind pursuant to Section 7.9.

 

(b)

A Series is authorized to withhold from Distributions and any other payments such amounts as it is required by any applicable governmental rule, regulation, or law to withhold, including without limitation for purposes of satisfying such Series’ obligations under the Code. All amounts withheld pursuant to this Section 7.10(b) shall be treated as amounts paid or distributed, as the case may be, to the Series Members with respect to which the amount was withheld.

 

(c)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Series shall not make a Distribution to any Series Member on account of its Series Shares if the Distribution would violate the Act or other applicable law.

 

SECTION 7.11. Series Tax Classification. Each of the Series shall elect to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3 with effect for each taxable period of its existence. The Series and each Series Member shall file all tax returns and shall otherwise take all tax and financial reporting positions in a manner consistent with such treatment. No election shall be filed with the Internal Revenue Service (or the tax authorities of any State) to have a Series taxable other than as an association taxable as a corporation for income tax purposes.

(c)

Upon the termination of a Series as provided herein, such Series shall be wound up in the manner provided by Section 8.3.

The proceeds of liquidation shall be distributed in accordance with Section 7.9(b).

 

(b)

The Manager and the Series Members associated with a Series shall comply with all requirements of applicable law pertaining to the winding up of the affairs of the Series and the final distribution of its assets.

SECTION 8.4. Certificate of Cancellation.

 

(a)

If a dissolution of the Company occurs and all debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses of the Company and each Series have been satisfied (whether by payment or reasonable provision for payment) and all of the remaining property and assets of each Series have been distributed, a certificate of cancellation shall be executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the Act.

 

(b)

Upon cancellation of the Certificate of Formation by the filing of a certificate of cancellation or otherwise, the Company shall dissolve, each Series shall terminate, and this Agreement shall terminate.
