However, the Company shall, at all times, maintain a registered agent in the State of Nevada who shall be authorized to accept service on behalf of the Company.

2. Capitalization of the Company

2.1 Member Classes

There are two (2) classes of Members, Class A and Class B. The Manager shall record the name and address of each of the Members in Appendix B to this Agreement. Member classes shall be allocated as provided below:

2.1.1 Class A Members

Investors who purchase Class A Units shall become Class A Members of the Company once admitted by the Manager.

The Capital Contributions of the Class A Members shall result in one hundred percent (100%) of the Capitalization of the Company, less the amount contributed by the Class B Members. Class A Members shall acquire ninety nine percent (99%) of the ownership Interests of the Company.

The minimum investment amount required of a Class A Investor is Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) or Ten (10) Units, however, the Manager reserves the right to accept less than the minimum investment amount from a single Class A Investor in order to achieve the maximum dollar amount of Interests to the Class A Investors, if less than the minimum investment amount required of each Class A Investor is needed to do so.

2.1.2 Class B Members

The Manager (or its members and/or their Affiliates) will retain ownership of one percent (1%) of the Interests in the Company in exchange for services to the Company. The Class B Interests shall be subordinate to the Class A Interests. The issuance of Class B Interests is irrevocable even if DIAMOND SKY CAPITAL, LLC is removed or resigns as the Manager of the Company.

The Manager reserves the right to allow the Class B Members (or their members or Affiliates) to sell, grant, transfer, or convey a minority of the Class B Interests to others without permission of the Class A Members as long as doing so does not: a) dilute the Interests or percentage returns to the Class A Members, or b) allow any other Class B Member to exert management control over the Manager.

DIAMOND SKY CAPITAL, LLC, its Affiliates or members (and/or their affiliates) may purchase Class A Units at such value as may be established from time to time on transfer of a Class A Member’s Interest per Articles 11 or 12 of this Agreement), but they may be allowed to invest less than the minimum investment amount required of other Class A Members, at the Manager’s sole discretion.

2.2 Percentage Interests

The Manager shall list the number of Units purchased and/or the dollar amount of each Member’s Capital Contribution and Percentage Interests in Appendix B. Percentage Interests of the Members will be calculated in relation to the other Members in their Member class or in relation to the total Interests.

2.3 Capital Calls; Default of Member

Although the Manager intends to raise sufficient money from Investors in order to make Loans to Borrowers, it is possible that the Manager may make a capital call in order to raise Additional Capital Contributions with which to achieve the Company’s objectives and policies as outlined in the Memorandum.

2.3.1 Additional Capital Contributions.

No Member shall be required to make an Additional Capital Contribution.

2.3.2 Cash Capital Contributions.

If any portion (an “Unpaid Portion”) of any Member’s Commitment consists of an obligation of such Member to contribute cash or property to the Company in the future, which obligation has not yet been discharged, the other Members may require such Member to contribute cash in an amount equal to the product of such Member’s Percentage Interest multiplied by all monies that in the judgment of the other Members are necessary to enable the Company to operate its business and maintain its assets and to discharge its costs, expenses, obligations, and liabilities; provided, however, that under no circumstances, shall a Member be obligated under this Section to contribute cash in an amount, in excess of the agreed value (as stated in Company’s records) of such Member’s Unpaid portion. Nothing contained in this Section is or shall be deemed to be for the benefit of any Person other than Members and the Company, and no such Person shall under any circumstances have any right to compel any actions or payments by the Members.

2.3.3 Failure to Contribute.

If a Member (“Delinquent Member”) does not contribute all or any portion of the Capital Contribution required pursuant to and at the time required by, such Member’s Commitment, the Company may sell additional interests in the Company to existing Members on a Right of First Refusal Basis at a rate of 1.5 times the value of the original investment. If the existing Members of the Company do not elect to participate in the purchase of additional interests, the Company may sell the interests to a third party at a rate of 1.5 times the value of the original investment. For example, if there is a Capital Call of $100,000 to which a Member is called to contribute 10%, and the Member fails to contribute, the dilution will actually count towards their Percentage Interest at a rate of 1.5 times the value and it will instead be attributed to the value of the purchasing Member or third party.

2.4 Time of Capital Contributions; Withdrawal Not Permitted

Member Capital Contributions shall be made in full on admission to the Company. No portion of the capital of the Company may be withdrawn until dissolution of the Company, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

2.5 Capital Accounts

An individual Capital Account shall be maintained for each Member in accordance with Treasury Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) and as further described in the attached Appendix C. Calculation of Member Percentage Interests will be determined on close of the offering to new Investors, and shall be calculated as described in Article 2.2 hereof.

3. Manager Advances and Member Loans

If required to protect or preserve the Company’s assets, the Manager has the sole discretion to apply other available Company funds to pay any Company obligations. However, if sufficient Company funds are not available, the Manager or one or more Members may loan funds to the Company subject to the following provisions:

3.1 Manager Advances

The Manager may, but is not required to loan its own funds or defer reimbursement of its out-of-pocket expenses as an Advance. The Company shall reimburse the Manager for any such Advance from the date of the loan or deferral as soon as is practical together with the simple annualized interest at ten percent (10%). Interest on Manager Advances shall be an expense of the Company when paid and shall accrue from the date of inception for a Manager loan, or from the date reimbursement was due for any Advance related to a deferred reimbursement.

3.2 Member Loans

Alternatively, the Manager may obtain a loan from one or more Members as and when necessary to continue the business of the Company, which shall earn ten percent (10%) per annum Interest from the date of inception.

3.3 Right and Priority of Repayment

Principal and interest payments for a Manager Advance or Member Loan will be paid as an expense of the Company as soon as sufficient Company funds are available, or held for longer in order to build up Company reserves, at the Manager’s sole discretion. A Manager or Member that makes a loan to the Company shall be deemed an unsecured creditor of the Company for the purpose of determining its right and priority of repayment of interest and principal of such Advance or Loan, and repayment of the Principal will be paid in the order the Advance or Loan was made.

3.4 Third Party Loans

In the event of a failed capital call, or the unavailability of a Manager Advance or Member Loan, the Manager may obtain a loan and/or credit from one or more third parties as it deems appropriate to further the business objectives of the Company. Such loan shall be made to the Company on such terms as the Manager deems reasonable and appropriate after taking into account the urgency and need for the funds.

4. Cash Distributions to Members

Cash Flow, if any, derived from operation of the Company will be evaluated on a quarterly basis, and disbursed in the order provided below until expended.

4.1.1 Preferred Return

Subject to the further terms of the Agreement, until the time each Class A Member’s initial capital contribution is returned in full in accordance with Section 4.2 below as a result of the sale of the Company’s real property or disposition of Loans, the Manager may, in the Manager’s sole and reasonable discretion, distribute to each Class A Member, on a quarterly basis, an amount of cash necessary to provide each Class A Member with a pre-tax non-cumulative annual return of eight percent (8%) (simple interest) on the outstanding amount of each such Class A Member’s initial capital contribution. Distributions will commence payments during the first quarter after the first anniversary date of the first Subscription Agreement accepted by the Company.

4.1.2 Distributions to the Class B Members

After the time that the Class A Members have received said eight (8%) percent (simple interest) annual pre-tax return on their initial capital contributions, plus any accrued but unpaid preferred returns from prior calendar years, the Manager may, in the Manager’s sole and reasonable discretion, that together with their Preferred Return distribute one hundred percent (100%) of the remaining Operating Cash Flow, if any, to the Class B Members.

4.1.3 Distributions after Return of Initial Capital Contributions.

Upon a sale or pay off a loan, cash distributions will be made as follows and in the following order to the extent there is available cash to distribute and so long as the Manager elects to NOT reinvest proceeds:

	·	In order to settle expenses and debts of the Company and, if deemed necessary by the Manager, in Manager’s sole and absolute discretion, to establish a reserve to fund post-closing contingencies and/or liabilities;

	·	To the Class A Members, in an amount equal to 100% of that portion of each Preferred Member's capital account allocated to the property involved in the sale, based upon the original principal balance of the loan (“Loan Cost Basis”);

	·	To the Class A Members, in accordance with their Percentage Interests, Class A Members have received total distributions resulting in eight percent (8%) per annum return on their aggregate Capital Contributions;

	·	To the Class B Members, in an amount equal to all remaining proceeds from the disposition of the loan.

4.1.4 No Return of Capital.

The payments made pursuant to Section 4.1.1, shall not be deemed a return of any portion of a Member’s initial capital contribution. However, the Manager may elect to use such proceeds to use as a return of capital to Class A Members instead of distributions so long as Member receive their promised returns. Such payments may be made if the Manager deems that such payments will present a tax advantage to Class A Members.

4.1.5 Reserves

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Agreement to the contrary, the Manager, in the Manager’s sole and absolute discretion, may use all or a portion of the Company’s Cash Flow to establish and fund a discretionary reserve(s) from time to time and in such amounts to be determined in the Manager’s sole and reasonable discretion taking into account such factors as anticipated current and future cash requirements of the Company. Said reserve(s) may be used to pay some or all of the distributions, whether accrued or current, specified in this Section.

4.1.6 Cash Flow

Cash Flow, as defined, means, with respect to any period of the Company’s operation, the gross cash receipts of the Company, including funds released from reserves, reduced by the sum of the following: (a) all principal and interest payments and other sums paid on or with respect to any indebtedness of the Company, (b) all cash expenditures incurred incident to the operation of the Company’s business, including without limitation, any capital expenditure, (c) all amounts due the Manager, and (d) such cash reserves as the Manager shall from time to time designate or as may otherwise be required by the terms of the Agreement or loan documents entered into by the Company in order to establish for working capital, compensating balance requirements, contingencies, payments of Distributions or the funding of any other cash or capital requirements of the Company. “Operating Cash Flow” means Cash Flow from operation of Company Assets, and does not include any Cash Flow from Capital Transactions.

4.2 Cash Distributions from Capital Transactions

4.2.1 Return of Initial Capital Contributions.

So long as the Manager does not elect to reinvest Capital Contributions, upon the sale or other disposition (such as pay off) of the Company’s loans, the Manager shall distribute and return to the Class A Members the full amount, or such portion of, each Class A Member’s initial capital contribution as the Manager shall determine in the Manager’s sole and reasonable discretion taking into account such factors as anticipated current and future cash requirements of the Company. The Manager intends use proceeds from such dispositions to finance further lending activities in accordance with the objectives of the Company.

The Manager may, in the Manager’s sole and reasonable discretion, distribute to each Class A Member, on a quarterly basis, an amount of cash necessary to provide each Class A Member with a pre-tax non-cumulative annual return of eight percent (8%) (simple interest) on the outstanding amount of each such Class A Member’s initial capital contribution.

4.3 Cash Distributions on Dissolution and Termination

	·	Second, to establish Reserves against anticipated or unanticipated Company liabilities; and

	·	Third, to the Members as described in Article 4.2.

5. Manager’s Compensation

In addition to the Cash Distributions described in Article 4, the Manager or their Affiliates who may have contributed funds toward organization of the Company will be reimbursed for their out-of-pocket expenses on production of receipts.

6.11 Indemnification of the Manager and the Members

The Manager or a Member shall not be subject to any liability to the Company for the doing of any act or the failure to do any act authorized herein, provided it was performed in good faith to promote the best interests of the Company, including any liability, without limitation, of any Manager, Member, officer, employee, or agent of the Company, against judgments, settlements, penalties, fines, or expenses of any kind (including attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred as a result of acting in that capacity.

Nothing in this section shall be construed to affect the liability of a Member of the Company (1) to third parties for the Member's participation in tortious conduct, or (2) pursuant to the terms of a written guarantee or other contractual obligation entered into by the Member (such as a loan guarantee, etc.).

·	Intentional misconduct including, but not limited to, a knowing violation of the law; or

6.12 Liability Insurance

The Company may, at the Manager’s discretion, and as a Company expense, purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of the Company, the Manager, a Member, or employee(s) of the Company against any liability asserted against and incurred by the Company, the Manager, a Member, or employee in any capacity relating to or arising out of the Company’s, Member's, Manager's, or employee's status as such.

·	Fourth, in the event that the Members and/or the Manager (or its members) fail to respond within thirty (30) days of the Selling Member’s Notice of Sale, or if the Manager and/or the Members expressly elect not to purchase the entire Selling Member’s Interest, the Selling Member shall have the right to sell its Interest to the third party on the same terms and conditions contained in the original Notice of Sale.

·	In the event the Selling Member receives or obtains a bona fide offer from a third party to purchase all or any portion of its Interest in the Company, which offer it desires to accept, then prior to accepting such offer, the Selling Member shall give written notice (the Notice of Sale) of such offer to the Manager. The Notice of Sale shall set forth the material terms of such offer, including without limitation the identity of the third party, and the purchase price and terms of payment.

·	If the terms are different than the original Notice of Sale offered to the Manager, the Selling Member must comply again with the terms of this Article (giving the Manager and Members the first right to purchase its Interest on the same terms and conditions offered by the third party) with respect to the existing offer and all subsequent third party offers.

·	If the Manager approves the sale to the third party, it must be completed within three (3) months. If the sale to the third party is not consummated on the terms contained in the approved Notice of Sale within three (3) months following the date of the Notice of Sale, then the Member must seek a renewed approval from the Manager, who may require that the Member again comply with the first right of refusal provisions of this Article.

In any purchase by the Members or the Manager described above, the Manager will automatically adjust the Membership Interests of the Purchasing Members or the Manager to reflect the respective number and Class of Units or Interests transferred, and the Manager shall revise Appendix B (attached hereto), as appropriate to reflect such adjustment.

11.5.2 Costs of Conveyance for Voluntary Transfer

In the event that the Manager and/or the Members elect to purchase as provided this Article, the cost of such transaction, including without limitation, recording fees, escrow fees, if any, and other fees, (excluding attorneys’ fees which shall be the sole expense of the party who retained them) shall be divided 50/50 between the Selling Member and the Purchasing Members. The Purchasing Members shall each contribute their respective share of the transaction costs in proportion with their share of the purchased Interest. The Selling Member shall deliver all appropriate documents of transfer for approval by the Manager, at least three (3) days prior to the closing of such sale for its review and approval.

From and after the date of such closing, whether the sale is made to the Members, the Manager, or to the third party, the Selling Member shall have no further Interest in the Assets or income of the Company and, as a condition of the sale, the Person(s) or entities purchasing the Interests shall indemnify and hold harmless the Selling Member from and against any claim, demand, loss, liability, damage or expense, including without limitation, attorney’s fees arising from the subsequent operation of the Company.

11.5.3 Rights and Interests of Voluntary Transferee; Adjustment of Voting Rights

If a Member transfers its Interest to a third party Transferee pursuant to this Article, such Transferee shall only succeed to the Member’s Economic Interest unless and until it complies with the provisions of Article 11.4 and is approved by the Manager as a Substitute Member. Until such time, if ever, that the third party Transferee becomes a Substitute Member, the voting Interests of the Remaining Members (i.e., all Members other than the Selling Member) will be increased proportionate with their Percentage Interests in the Company as if they had purchased the Selling Member’s Interest.

The obligations, rights and Interests of the Selling, purchasing, and any Substitute Members shall inure to and be binding upon the heirs, successors and permitted assignees of such Members subject to the restrictions of this Article. A third party Transferee shall have no right of action against the Manager or the Company for not being accepted as a Substitute Member.

12. Involuntary Transfer; Disassociation

12.1 Disassociation for Cause

A Member may be disassociated (i.e., expelled) from the Company a) pursuant to a judicial determination, or b) on application by the Manager, another Member of the same class, for Cause (defined in the bullets below); upon a written finding by the Manager or applicable judicial body that such Member:

·	Engaged in wrongful conduct that adversely and materially affected the Company’s business;

·	Willfully or persistently committed a material breach of this Agreement;

·	Engaged in conduct relating to the Company’s business, which makes it not reasonably practicable to carry on the business with the Member; or

·	Engaged in willful misconduct related to its Membership in the Company.

12.2 Disassociation by Operation of Law

Additionally, a Member may be disassociated by operation of law, affected solely by action of the Manager, upon the occurrence of any of the following triggering events:

·	Upon Voluntary or Involuntary Transfer of all or part of a Member's Economic Interest;

·	Dissolution, suspension, or failure to maintain the legal operating status of a corporation, partnership or limited liability company that is a Member of the Company; or

·	In the case of a Member that is a legal entity, the Member's:

	·	Becoming a debtor in Bankruptcy;

	·	Executing an assignment of all or substantially all of its Economic Interest for the benefit of creditors;

	·	The appointment of a trustee, receiver, or liquidator of the Member or of all or substantially all of the Member's property including its Interest in the Company pursuant to an action related to the Member’s insolvency; or

·	In the case of a Member who is an individual:

	·	The Member's death;

	·	Becoming a debtor in Bankruptcy;

	·	The appointment of a guardian or conservator of the property of the Member; or

	·	A judicial determination of incapacity or other such determination indicating that the Member has become incapable of performing its duties under this Agreement;

·	In the case of a Member that is a trust or trustee of a trust, distribution of the trust's entire rights to receive Distributions from the Company, but not merely by reason of the substitution of a successor trustee;

·	In the case of a Member that is an estate or personal representative of an estate, distribution of the estate's entire rights to receive Distributions from the Company, but not merely the substitution of a successor personal representative; or

·	Termination of the existence of a Member if the Member is not an individual, estate, or trust, other than a business trust.

12.3 Effect of Disassociation

Immediately on mailing of a notice of Disassociation sent by the Manager to a Member’s last known address, unless the reason for Disassociation can be and is cured within sixty (60) days, a Member will cease to be a Member of the Company and shall henceforth be known as a Disassociated Member. Any successor in Interest who succeeds to a Member’s Interest by operation of law (per Article 12.2) shall henceforth be known as an Involuntary Transferee.

Subsequently, the Disassociated Member’s right to vote or participate in management decisions (as summarized in Article 7.4) will be automatically terminated. A Disassociated Member (or its legal successor) will continue to receive only the Disassociated Member’s Economic Interest in the Company, unless the Disassociated Member/Involuntary Transferee elects to sell its Interest to the Manager or Members (Purchasing Members) or to a third party buyer (Voluntary Transferee) following the procedures described in Article 11.5; and/or a Voluntary or Involuntary Transferee seeks admission and is approved by the Manager as a Substitute Member (per Article 11.4).

Until such time, if ever, that the Manager approves the transfer of the entire Disassociated Member’s Membership Interest to the Purchasing Members or a Substitute Member, the voting interests of the Remaining Members will be proportionately increased as necessary to absorb the Disassociated Member’s voting Interests.

If a Member objects to Disassociation, they will be bound to resolve the dispute in accordance with the Internal Dispute Resolution Procedure described in Article 13, unless the reason for the Disassociation can be resolved within sixty (60) days to the satisfaction of the Manager, in which case their full Membership Interest will be reinstated. If there is no Involuntary Transferee, and no third party buyer is found and the Manager or Remaining Members do not wish to purchase the Disassociated Member’s Interest, the Disassociated Member will only be entitled to receive its Economic Interest (no voting rights), indefinitely, until such time as the Company is dissolved.

12.4 Sale and Valuation of a Disassociated Member’s Interest

If no outside buyers can be found and the Disassociated Member still desires to sell its Interest, which the Remaining Members and/or Manager (Purchasing Members) wish to purchase, the buyout price for the Disassociated Member’s Interest may be determined using one of the following methods:

·	Negotiated Price: First, if the Purchasing Members or legal representative of the Disassociated Member can agree on a negotiated price for the Interest, then that price will be used; if not,

·	Estimated Market Value Within 12 Months: Second, the Manager may annually determine the Estimated Market Value of the Company and report it to the Members (per Article 6.3). An Estimated Market Value calculated by the Manager in any commercially accepted manner within the last twelve (12) months shall conclusively be used to determine the value of a Disassociated Member’s Interest. The purchase price of shall be the product of the Disassociated Member’s Percentage Interest in the Company and the Estimated Market Value of the Company.

12.5 Closing

Unless other terms have been agreed between the Disassociated and Purchasing Members, the following terms shall apply to closing of a Disassociated Member’s Interest. After determining value (per Article 11.5 or 12.4 above), the Purchasing Members shall give written notice fixing the time and date for the closing. The closing shall be conducted at the principal office of the Company or other agreed location on the date not less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date of such notice, or in the event of Bankruptcy, any request for an extension by any Bankruptcy Court having jurisdiction.

12.6 Payment for a Disassociated Member’s Interest

At closing, the Purchasing Members shall pay to the Disassociated Member by certified or bank check an amount equal to the determined value of the Disassociated Member’s Interest, or, if such value shall be determined to be zero or another amount pursuant to an agreement of the Members, shall deliver an executed copy of such agreement or a copy of such appraisal report(s), or a memorandum of the negotiated value (per Article 11.4 above) as applicable.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the option of the Purchasing Members, the purchase price may be paid by the delivery of its promissory note in the principal amount of the purchase price, bearing interest at six percent (6%), repayable early without penalty, in eight (8) equal quarterly installments, or other agreement. Simultaneously therewith the Disassociated Member shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Purchasing Members such instruments of conveyance, assignment and releases as shall be necessary or reasonably desirable to convey all of the right, title and Interest of the Member and the Assets thereof.

Because of the unique and distinct nature of an Interest in the Company, it is agreed that the Purchasing Members’ damages would not be readily ascertainable if they elect to purchase the Disassociated Member’s Interest as aforesaid and the conveyance thereof were not consummated, and, therefore, in such case the Purchasing Members shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance in addition to any other remedies that may be available to them in law or in equity.

12.7 Transfer of Economic Interest; Rights of an Involuntary Transferee

If the Purchasing Members do not elect to purchase the Interest of a Disassociated Member as provided in Articles 12.4 through 12.6, or if by operation of law the Economic Interest of the Disassociated Member transfers to an Involuntary Transferee, the Manager shall hereby be granted power of attorney by the Disassociated Member to execute such documents as may be necessary and requisite to evidence and cause the transfer only of the Disassociated Member’s Economic Interest to the Involuntary Transferee, as applicable and appropriate for the circumstances.

An Involuntary Transferee shall not be deemed a Member until such time if ever, that they seek admission and are approved as a Substitute Member(s). Until such time, they shall only succeed to the Economic Interest of the Disassociated Member, including the right to any Distributions and a return of the Disassociated Member’s Unreturned Capital Contributions, if applicable, which shall be distributed only if and when such Distributions or return of Capital Contributions shall become due per the terms of this Agreement. Any Distributions that may be due a Disassociated Member shall be held in trust and no Distributions shall be made to an Involuntary Transferee until it produces and executes such documentation as the Manager deems necessary to evidence the Transfer of the Disassociated Member’s Economic Interest, and to indemnify the Company and the Manager for any liability related to making Distributions directly to the holder of the Economic Interest.

Any further assignment of the Disassociated Member’s Economic or Membership Interest, or any request of an Involuntary Transferee to succeed to the Disassociated Member’s full Membership Interest (i.e., to become a Substituted Member in the Company), shall be subject to approval of the Manager.

13. Internal Dispute Resolution Procedure

Because the nature of the Company is to generate Profits on behalf of its Members, it is imperative that one Member’s dispute with the Manager and/or other Members is not allowed to diminish the Profits available to other Members or resources necessary to operate the Company. Litigation could require diversion of Company Profits to pay attorney’s fees or could tie up Company funds necessary for operation of the Company, impacting the profitability of the investment for all Members. The only way to prevent such needless expense is to have a comprehensive Internal Dispute Resolution Procedure (Procedure) in place, to which each of the Members have specifically agreed in advance of membership in the Company. The Procedure described below requires an aggrieved party to take a series of steps designed to amicably resolve a dispute on terms that will preserve the interests of the Company and the other non-disputing Members, before invoking a costly remedy, such as arbitration.

In the event of a dispute, claim, question, or disagreement between the Members or between the Manager and one or more Members arising from or relating to this Agreement, the breach thereof, or any associated transaction, or to interpret or enforce any rights or duties under the Act (hereinafter Dispute), the Manager and Members hereby agree to resolve such Dispute by strictly adhering to the Procedure provided below. The following Procedure has been adapted for purposes of this Agreement from guidelines and rules published by the American Arbitration Association (AAA):

13.1 Notice of Disputes

Written notice of a Dispute must be sent to the Manager or Member by the aggrieved party as described in the notice requirements of Article 15.1 below.

13.2 Negotiation of Disputes

The parties hereto shall use their best efforts to settle any Dispute through negotiation before resorting to any other means of resolution. To this effect, they shall consult and negotiate with each other in good faith and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a just and equitable solution satisfactory to all parties. If, within a period of sixty (60) days after written notice of such Dispute has been served by either party on the other, the parties have not reached a negotiated solution, then upon further notice by either party, the Dispute shall be submitted to mediation administered by the AAA in accordance with the provisions of its Commercial Mediation Rules. The onus is on the complaining party to initiate each next step in this Procedure as provided below.

13.3 Mandatory Alternative Dispute Resolution

On failure of negotiation provided above; mediation, and as a last resort, binding arbitration shall be used to ultimately settle the Dispute. The following provisions of this Article 13 shall apply to any subsequent mediation or arbitration.

Exception: On unanimous consent of all parties to a Dispute, the disputing party may initiate a small claims action or litigation in lieu of mandatory mediation and arbitration. The parties shall further unanimously determine jurisdiction and venue. In any small claims action or litigation, the local rules of court shall apply in lieu of the remaining provisions of this Article.

13.3.1 Preliminary Relief

Any party to the Dispute may seek preliminary relief at any time after negotiation has failed, but prior to arbitration, in accordance with the Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection of the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures. The AAA case manager may appoint an arbitrator who will hear only the preliminary relief issues without going through the arbitrator selection process described in Article 13.5.1.

13.3.2 Consolidation

Identical or sufficiently similar Disputes presented by more than one Member may, at the option of the Manager, be consolidated into a single Procedure.

13.3.3 Location of Mediation or Arbitration

Any mediation or arbitration shall be conducted in State of Nevada and each party to such mediation or arbitration must attend in person.

13.3.4 Attorney’s Fees and Costs

Each party shall bear its own costs and expenses (including their own attorney’s fees) and an equal share of the mediator or arbitrators’ fees and any administrative fees, regardless of the outcome; however, if the Manager is a party, its legal fees shall be paid by the Company (per the indemnification provision described in Article 6.11).

Exception: The Company may reimburse a Member for attorney’s fees and costs in any legal action against the Manager or the Company in which the Member is awarded such fees and costs as part of a legal action.

13.3.5 Maximum Award

The maximum amount a party may seek during mediation or be awarded by an arbitrator is the amount equal to the party’s Unreturned Capital Contributions and any Cash Distributions or interest to which the party may be entitled. An arbitrator will have no authority to award punitive or other damages.

13.3.6 AAA Commercial Mediation or Arbitration Rules

Any Dispute submitted for mediation or arbitration shall be subject to the AAA’s Commercial Mediation or Arbitration Rules. If there is a conflict between the Rules and this Article, the Article shall be controlling.

13.4 Mediation

Any Dispute that cannot be settled through negotiation as described in Article 13.2, may proceed to mediation. The parties shall try in good faith to settle the Dispute by mediation, which each of the parties to the Dispute must attend in person, before resorting to arbitration. If, after no less than three (3) face-to-face mediation sessions, mediation proves unsuccessful at resolving the Dispute, the parties may then, and only then, resort to binding arbitration as described in Article 13.5.

13.4.1 Selection of Mediator

The complaining party shall submit a Request for Mediation to the AAA. The AAA will appoint a qualified mediator to serve on the case. The preferred mediator shall have specialized knowledge of securities law, unless the Dispute pertains to financial accounting issues, in which case the arbitrator shall be a CPA, or if no such person is available, shall be generally familiar with the subject matter involved in the Dispute. If the parties are unable to agree on the mediator within thirty (30) days of the Request for Mediation, the AAA case manager will make an appointment.

If the initial mediation(s) does not completely resolve the Dispute, any party may request a different mediator for subsequent mediation(s) by serving notice of the request to the other party(ies) for approval, and subject to qualification per the requirements stated above.

13.5 Arbitration

Any Dispute that remains unresolved after good faith negotiation and three (3) failed mediation sessions shall be settled by binding arbitration. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) shall be final and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

13.5.1 Selection of Arbitrator

Prior to arbitration, the complaining party shall cause the appointment of an AAA case manager by filing of a claim with the AAA along with the appropriate filing fee, and serving it on the defending party. The AAA case manager shall provide each party with a list of proposed arbitrators who meet the qualifications described below, or if no such person is available, who are generally familiar with the subject matter involved in the Dispute. Each side will have 14 days to strike any unacceptable names, number the remaining names in order of preference, and return the list to the AAA. The case manager shall then invite persons to serve from the names remaining on the list, in the designated order of mutual preference. Should this selection procedure fail for any reason, the AAA case manager shall appoint an arbitrator as provided in the applicable AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules.

13.5.2 Qualifications of Arbitrator

The selected or appointed arbitrator shall be selected from available candidates in Nevada and shall have specialized knowledge of securities law, unless the Dispute pertains to financial accounting issues, in which case the arbitrator shall be a CPA. Further, the selected arbitrator must agree to sign a certification stating that they have read all of the documents relevant to this Agreement in their entirety, including and any relevant Appendices or Exhibits, this entire Agreement, and the Subscription Booklet.

13.5.3 Limited Discovery

Discovery shall be limited to only those documents pertaining to this Agreement including this entire Agreement (and any relevant Appendices or Exhibits), the Subscription Booklet (and any relevant Appendices or Exhibits), any written correspondence between the parties, and any other documents specifically requested by the Arbitrator as necessary to facilitate his/her understanding of the Dispute. The parties may produce witnesses for live testimony at the arbitration hearing at their own expense. A list of all such witnesses and complete copies of any documents to be submitted to the arbitrator shall be served on the arbitrator and all other parties within forty-five (45) days of the arbitration hearing, at the submitting party’s expense.

13.5.4 Findings of Arbitrator

If, in any action against the Manager, the selected or appointed arbitrator, or judge (if applicable) makes a specific finding that the Manager has violated Securities laws, or has otherwise engaged in any of the actions described in Article 6.11 for which the Manager will not be indemnified, the Manager must bear the cost of its own legal defense. The Manager must reimburse the Company for any such costs previously paid by the Company. Until the Company has been fully reimbursed, the Manager will not be entitled to receive any Fees or Distributions it may otherwise be due.

14. Dissolution and Termination of the Company

14.1 Dissolution

The Company shall be dissolved upon the disposition of all Company Loans or Properties (which may be determined solely by action of the Manager). The Company will observe any mandatory provisions of the Act upon dissolution. On dissolution, Assets of the Company will be distributed as described in Article 4.3 hereof.

14.2 Termination of a Member Does Not Require Dissolution

The disassociation, withdrawal, death, insanity, incompetency, Bankruptcy, dissolution, or liquidation of any Member or the Manager will not require dissolution of the Company.

14.3 Procedure for Winding-Up

Upon the dissolution and termination of the Company caused by other than the termination of the Company under section 708(b)(1)(B) of the Code, the Manager shall proceed to wind up the affairs of the Company. During such winding-up process, the Profits, Losses, and Distributions of the Distributable Cash shall continue to be shared by the Members in accordance with this Agreement.

Upon the dissolution and commencement of the winding up of the Company, the Manager shall cause Articles of Dissolution to be executed on behalf of the Company and filed with the State Corporation Commission of the State of Nevada, and the Manager shall execute, acknowledge and file any and all other instruments necessary or appropriate to reflect the dissolution of the Company.

An individual Capital Account shall be maintained for each Member in accordance with Treasury Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) and adjusted with the following provisions:

a.	A Member’s Capital Account shall be increased by that Member’s Capital Contributions and that Member’s share of Profits.

c.	A Member’s Capital Account shall be decreased by (a) the amount of cash distributed to that Member and (b) the Gross Asset Value of the assets of the Company so distributed, net of liabilities secured by such distributed assets that the distribute Member is considered to assume or to be subject to under Code section 752.

d.	A Member’s Capital Account shall be reduced by the Member’s share of any expenditures of the Company described in Code section 705(a)(2)(B) or which are treated as Code section 705(a)(2)(B) expenditures under Treasury Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i) (including syndication expenses and Losses nondeductible under Code sections 267(a)(1) or 707(b)).

g.	In the event the Gross Asset Values of the Company Assets are adjusted pursuant to this Agreement, the Capital Accounts of all Members shall be adjusted simultaneously to reflect the aggregate net adjustment as if the Company had recognized gain or loss equal to the amount of such aggregate net adjustment and the resulting gain or loss had been allocated among the Members in accordance with this Agreement.

h.	The foregoing provisions and other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith. In the event the Manager shall determine, after consultation with competent legal counsel, that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts or any debits or credits thereto are allocated or computed in order to comply with such applicable federal law, the Manager shall make such modification without the consent of any other Member, provided the Manager determines in good faith that such modification is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the amounts properly distributable to any Member and that such modification will not increase the liability of any Member to third parties.

In the event Gross Asset Value of the Company’s assets are adjusted pursuant to this Agreement, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such Asset shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such Asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

The Manager shall make any election or other decisions relating to such allocations in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose of this Agreement.

2.3.2 Curative Allocations

The Manager shall make such other special allocations as are required in order to comply with any mandatory provision of the applicable Treasury Regulations or to reflect a Member’s Economic Interest in the Company determined with reference to such Member’s right to receive Distributions from the Company and such Member’s obligation to pay its expenses and liabilities.

Where a disparity exists between the book value of an Asset and its adjusted tax basis, then solely for tax purposes (and not for purposes of computing Capital Accounts), income, gain, loss, deduction and credit with respect to such Asset shall be allocated among the Members to take such difference into account in accordance with section 704(c)(i)(A) of the Code and Treasury Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i). The allocations eliminating such disparities shall be made using any reasonable method permitted by the Code, as determined by the Manager.

Distributions shall be made to the holder of record of the Class A Member’s Interest on the date of Distribution.

6. Tax Matters Related to Foreign Investors

6.1.1 Non-U.S. Investors

The discussion below is applicable solely to Non-U.S. Persons investing directly with the Company.

The Company will be required to withhold U.S. Federal income tax at the rate of up to thirty percent (30%), or lower treaty rate, if applicable on a Non-U.S. Person’s distributive share of any U.S. source Distributions the Company realizes and certain limited types of U.S. source interest. Withholding generally is not currently required with respect to gain from the sale of portfolio securities. The Company will, however, be required to withhold on the amount of gain realized on the disposition of a “U.S. real property interest” included in a Non-U.S. Person’s Distribution at a rate of up to thirty-nine percent (39%). Each Non-U.S. Person that invests in this Offering will be required to file a U.S. Federal income tax return reporting such gain. The Gain realized on the sale of all or any portion of a Membership Interest will, to the extent such gain is attributable to U.S. real property interests, be subject to U.S. income tax.

The Company will be required to withhold U.S. Federal income tax at the highest rate applicable for any “effectively connected taxable income” (as that term is defined by the IRS) allocated to a Non-U.S. Person, and the amount withheld will be available as a credit against the tax shown on such Person’s return. The computation of income effectively connected with the Company may be different from the computation of the Non-U.S. Person’s effectively connected income (because, for example, when computing the Company’s effectively connected income, net operating Losses from prior years are not available to offset the Company’s current income), so in any given year the Company may be required to withhold tax with respect to its Non-U.S. Person-Investors in excess of their individual Federal income tax liability for the year.

C-8

If a Non-U.S. Person invests through an entity, it may be subject to the thirty percent (30%) branch profits tax on its effectively connected income. The branch profits tax is a tax on the “dividend equivalent amount” of a non-U.S. corporation (which may apply in the case of a limited liability company), which is approximately equal to the amount of such Company’s earnings and profits attributable to effectively connected income that is not treated as reinvested in the U.S. The effect of the branch profits tax is to increase the maximum U.S. Federal income tax rate on effectively connected income from thirty-five percent (35%) to over fifty percent (50%). Some U.S. income tax treaties provide exemptions from, or reduced rates for, the branch profits tax for “qualified residents” of the treaty country. The branch profits tax may also apply if a Non-U.S. Person claims deductions against their effectively connected income from the Company for interest on indebtedness of its non-U.S. Member.

The Company is authorized to withhold and pay over any withholding taxes and treat such withholding as a payment to the Non-U.S. Person if the withholding was required. Such payment will be treated as a Distribution to the extent that the Non-U.S. Person is then entitled to receive a Distribution. To the extent that the aggregate of such payments to a Non-U.S. Person for any period exceeds the Distributions to which they are entitled for such period, the Company will notify the Non-U.S. Person as to the amount of such excess and the amount of such excess will be treated as a loan by the Company to the Non-U.S. Person. If a Non-U.S. Person owns a Membership Interest directly on the date of death, its estate could be further subject to U.S. estate tax with respect to such Interest.

6.1.2 Foreign Person Withholding

The Company shall comply with all reporting and withholding requirements imposed with respect to Non-U.S. Persons, as defined in the Code, and any Member that is a Non-U.S. Person shall be obligated to contribute to the Company any funds necessary to enable the Company (to the extent not available out of such Member’s share of Distributable Cash or Net Proceeds of Capital Transactions) to satisfy any such withholding obligations. In the event any Member shall fail to contribute to the Company any funds necessary to enable the Company to satisfy any withholding obligation, the Manager shall have the right to offset against any payments due and owing to such Member, or its Affiliates, the amounts necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation, or, in the event the Company shall be required to borrow funds to satisfy any withholding obligation by reason of a Member’s failure to contribute such funds to the Company, the Manager shall have the right to offset against said Member’s present and future Distributions, an amount equal to the amount so borrowed plus the greater of (i) the Company’s actual cost of borrowing such funds, or (ii) the amount borrowed, multiplied by fifteen percent (15%).

6.1.3 Non-U.S. Taxes

The Company may be subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by, and the Non-U.S. Person might be subject to, taxation and reporting requirements in non-U.S. jurisdictions. It is possible that tax conventions between such countries and the U.S. (or another jurisdiction in which a non-U.S. Member is a resident) might reduce or eliminate certain of such taxes. It is also possible that in some cases, if the Non-U.S. Person is a taxable Member, it might be entitled to claim U.S. tax credits or deductions with respect to such taxes, subject to certain limitations under applicable law. The Company will treat any such tax withheld from or otherwise payable with respect to income allocated to the Company as cash the Company received and will treat the Non-U.S. Person as receiving a payment equal to the portion of such tax that is attributable to it. Similar provisions would apply in the case of taxes the Company is required to withhold.
