This Agreement sets forth the rights, duties, obligations, and responsibilities of the Members and the Manager with respect to the Company. The Members and the Manager, hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1.
Formation of the Company

Section 1.1 The Company

Central RoRo, LLC was formed on October 3, 2023, as a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”) by executing and delivering the Certificate of Formation in accordance with the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “Act”), and the rights and liabilities of the Members shall be as provided in the Act except as may be modified in this Agreement. The business of the Company may be conducted under such other names as the Manager may designate from time to time.

Section 1.2 Filing of Certificate and Amendments

The Manager, and anyone authorized to act on its behalf, is hereby authorized to execute, deliver, file, and record all such other certificates and documents, including amendments to or restatements of the Certificate, and to do such other acts as may be appropriate to comply with all requirements for the formation, continuation and operation of a limited liability company, the ownership of property and the conduct of business under the laws of the State of Delaware and any other jurisdiction in which the Company may own property or conduct business.

Section 1.3 Purpose

The Company was formed to acquire a majority percentage interest in Main & Main RoRo Property Owner, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which (a) is under common control of the same manager, the Manger (“Main & Main”), (b) intends to carry out the development, construction, and eventual operation of an Atari-branded, Phoenix, Arizona-based hotel, and (c) will become the Company’s majority owned subsidiary upon the initial closing of the planned Tier 2 Regulation Offering of the Units (the “Offering”).

The Company may engage in any other lawful activities which are related or incidental to the foregoing purposes, as may be determined at the Manager’s sole discretion.

Section 1.4 Principal Place of Business; Location for Records

The street address of the Company’s principal office in the United States where the records of the Company are maintained is (a) ▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, or (b) such other place or places as the Manager may determine and communicate to the Members.

The records maintained by the Company will include all the records that the Company is required by law to maintain. The Company shall likewise maintain a records office in any jurisdiction that requires the Company to establish a records office, and at each such location, all records that its respective jurisdiction shall require from time to time.

Section 1.5 Registered Office and Agent

The Company’s registered office and registered agent in the State of Delaware is as stated on the Certificate, as may be amended from time to time. The Manager may designate another registered agent and/or registered office from time to time in accordance with the then applicable provisions of the Act and any other applicable laws.

Section 1.6 Purpose of Transfer Restrictions

Any unauthorized Transfer of a Member’s Membership Interest could create a substantial hardship to the Company, jeopardize its capital base, and adversely affect its tax structure. As such and pursuant to this Agreement, there are certain restrictions that attach to and affect both ownership of the Units and the Transfer of those Units. The restrictions placed on the Units under this Agreement are not intended as a penalty, but as a method to protect and preserve existing relationships based upon trust and to protect the Company’s capital and its financial ability to continue to operate.

Section 1.7 Term of the Company

The term of the Company commenced on the date of the filing of the Certificate with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Company may be terminated in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof, and will continue unless and until dissolved as provided hereunder. The existence of the Company as a separate legal entity will continue until the cancellation of the Certificate as provided in the Act.

Section 1.8 Tax Classification as a Partnership

The Manager shall take all steps reasonably necessary to classify the Company as a partnership for tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code and Regulations, in particular Internal Revenue Code § 7701 et. seq., and the “Check the Box” regulations effective January 1, 1997, as amended from time to time. In this regard, the Manager shall, if appropriate, file IRS Form 8832, Choice of Entity, as well as any forms necessary or appropriate to classify the Company as a partnership under the laws of any jurisdiction in which the Company transacts business. Any such action shall not require the vote or consent of the Members. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Partnership Representative may not take any action contemplated by § 6221 through § 6241 of the Internal Revenue Code without the approval of the Manager.

The Manager shall have the sole discretion to file, execute, and otherwise cause the completion of any and all instruments necessary to appoint or replace the partnership representative (“Partnership Representative”) pursuant to Internal Revenue Code § 6223 as amended by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015.

The Company shall bear the legal and accounting costs associated with any contested or uncontested proceeding by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) with respect to the Company’s tax returns.

Capitalization of the Company

Section 3.1 Source of Funding

On behalf of the Company, the Manager may, at its sole discretion, issue Units and determine the consideration to be received by the Company for such Units, and use debt and/or other alternative financing to fund its capital needs. If the Manager obtains additional debt or alternative financing, or the Company’s capital needs are reduced, the offering amount pursuant to any confidential private placement memorandum, an offering pursuant to Regulation A, or any other similar offering and the number of Units to be issued by the Company may be reduced by the Manager in its sole discretion.

Section 3.2 Issuance of Units

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited amount of Units of Membership Interest. The relative rights, powers, preferences, duties, liabilities, and obligations of the holders of the Units will be as set forth herein.

The Manager shall at all times keep a ledger (the “Company Ledger”) of the Members, setting forth the number of Units and percentage interest held by each Member. The Company Ledger will be amended from time to time by the Manager (or an Officer designated by the Manager) to the extent necessary to reflect accurately the admission of new Members, an adjustment in the number of Units issued or owned in accordance with this Agreement, or other events making an amendment to the same necessary or appropriate.

All Members will be bound by the requirements of any legend which would appear on a certificated version of the Units, to the extent that such legends are applicable as determined by the Manager in its sole discretion. Upon a registration of any Units, any certificate representing such Units will be replaced, at the expense of the Company, with certificates bearing only a legend referring to this Agreement to the extent still applicable.

The Manager may amend this Section at any time to provide for the issuance and creation of additional classes of Units without the vote or consent of the Members, provided, however, that such amendment will not subject any Member to any material, adverse economic consequences. Issued Units shall be set forth in the list of Members maintained by the Company or its transfer agent.

Section 3.3 Capital Contribution Obligations

A Member or prospective member’s promise to make a Capital Contribution to the Company is enforceable if in writing and signed by the Person making the promise and shall be enforceable against the Member’s heirs, legal representatives, or successors without regard to death, disability, or other changed circumstances of the Member. A prospective member whose subscription documents have been accepted and approved by the Manager shall not be deemed admitted as a Member unless/until such investor’s Capital Contribution is received by the Company.

Section 3.4 Additional Capital Contributions

Additional Capital Contributions may not be required.

Section 3.5 Capital Accounts

A separate Capital Account shall be maintained for each Member in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Regulations.

Each Member’s Capital Account shall be credited with such Member’s Capital Contributions, such Member’s share of Profits allocated to such Member in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, any items in the nature of income or gain that are specifically allocated, and the amount of any Company liabilities that are assumed by such Member or that are secured by any Company Assets distributed to such Member.

Each Member’s Capital Account shall be debited by the amount of cash distributed to such Member in accordance with this Agreement, the value of the Member’s allocated share of Losses, the amount of any liabilities of such Member that are assumed by the Company or that are secured by any property contributed by such Member to the Company, and any items in the nature of deductions or depreciation that are specifically allocated.

The Manager shall maintain a correct record of all the Members and their Units, together with amended and revised schedules of ownership caused by changes in the Members and changes in Units.

ARTICLE 4.

Distributions and Allocations

Section 4.1 Distributions

The Company intends to make distributions of Distributable Cash upon its receipt of any distributions from Main & Main as a result of its Main & Main Unit holdings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make distributions of Distributable Cash, if any, as follows:

First, to the Members in proportion to their respective allocations of estimated taxable income of the Company for the taxable year in question, an amount necessary to provide liquidity for the payment of taxes arising from allocations of profits to the Unit holders to the extent of such tax payment obligation at the highest federal tax rate, and such tax distributions will reduce dollar for dollar, distributions subsequently to be made to such Unit holders;

Second, to the Members, pro rata, in accordance with their Unit holdings as set forth on the Company Ledger.

Section 4.2 [Reserved]

[Reserved]

Section 4.3 Allocation of Profits and Losses

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Profits and Losses (including individual items of profit, income, gain, loss, credit, deduction and expense) of the Company will be allocated among the Members in a manner such that the Capital Account balance of each Member, immediately after making that allocation, is, as nearly as possible, equal (proportionately) to the distributions that would be made to that Member pursuant to Section 12.4 if the Company were dissolved, its affairs wound up and its assets sold for cash equal to their Fair Market Value, all Company liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the Fair Market Value of the assets securing that liability), and the net assets of the Company were distributed in accordance with Section 12.4 to the Members immediately after making that allocation, adjusted for applicable special allocations, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets.

In the event that Members are issued Units on different dates, the Profits or Losses allocated to the Members for each Fiscal Year during which Members receive Units will be allocated among the Members in accordance with Section 706 of the Code, using any convention permitted by law and selected by the Manager. For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses and individual items of income, gain, loss credit, deduction and expense allocable to any period, Profits, Losses and any other items will be determined on a daily, monthly or other basis, as determined by the Manager using any method that is permissible under Section 706 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all individual items of Company income, gain, loss and deduction will be divided among the Members in the same proportions as they share Profits and Losses for the Fiscal Year or other period in question.

Allocation of Profits and Losses may be modified by subsequent agreement to conform to adjustments made to the Membership Interests because of loans to the Company converted to contributions to capital, any non-uniform distributions of cash, and any liquidating distributions.

Section 4.4 Special Allocations

a. Qualified Income Offset. If a Member, or applicable Assignee, unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Regulations §§ 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4)-(d)(6), 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 each such Person in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, the Capital Account of such Person as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section shall be made only if and to the extent that such Person would have a negative Capital Account after all other allocations provided for in this Article 4 have been tentatively made as if this Section were not in the Agreement.

b. Section 704(c) Allocations. In accordance with Internal Revenue Code § 704(c) and the applicable Regulations issued pursuant to Internal Revenue Code § 704(c), income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members, or applicable Assignees, so as to take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and initial Gross Asset Value of such property. In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company Asset is adjusted pursuant to this Agreement, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such property shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such property for federal income tax purposes and Gross Asset Value of such property in the same manner as under Internal Revenue Code § 704(c) and the Regulations. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Manager in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose of this Agreement. Allocations made pursuant to this Section are solely for purposes of federal, state, and local taxes and shall not affect or in any way be taken into account in computing any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

c. Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Profits and Losses shall be allocated as though this Agreement contained (and therefore is hereby incorporated herein by reference) minimum gain chargeback and partner minimum gain chargeback provisions, which comply with the requirements of Regulations § 1.704-2. For purposes of applying the minimum gain chargeback, non-recourse deductions for any taxable year shall be specially allocated among the Members, or applicable Assignees, in the same proportions that Losses for any such year would be allocated under Section 4.3.

d. Allocations in Event of Re-characterization. If transactions between the Company and Members, or applicable Assignees, are re-characterized, imputed, or otherwise treated in a manner the effect of which is to increase or decrease the Profits or Losses of the Company, and correspondingly decrease or increase the taxable income, deduction, or loss of one or more Members or applicable Assignees, the allocations set forth in this Article shall be adjusted to eliminate, to the greatest extent possible, the consequences of such re-characterization or imputation.

e. Other Allocations. The Manager shall make such other special allocations as are required in order to comply with any mandatory provision of the Regulations or to reflect a Member’s or applicable Assignee’s economic interest in the Company, determined with reference to such Person’s right to receive distributions from the Company.

Section 4.5 Imputed Underpayments

a. Modifications of Imputed Underpayments. Other than as is otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement, the Manager may make any request for modifications of an “imputed underpayment” to the IRS, or cause the Partnership Representative or other Person to make any such request for any such modification, under the Internal Revenue Code as the Manager deems to be in the best interests of the Company, even if such an election has a negative effect on the Capital Account of one or more current or former Members.

b. Election in the Event of an Imputed Underpayment. In the event that the IRS determines that there is one or more “imputed underpayments” for any taxable year, then the Partnership Representative is hereby expressly authorized and directed to make an election under § 6226 under the Internal Revenue Code as set forth in the rules released on January 2, 2018, or their successors or replacements, without the vote or consent of the Members, within forty-five (45) days of the date the respective final partnership adjustment is mailed to the Company. In the event that the Partnership Representative chooses to make such an election, each Member’s share of the adjustment shall be calculated as follows:

Section 6.2 Extent and Scope of Services

Neither the Company nor any Member shall have any right, title, or interest in or to such independent ventures of the Manager. The Manager and the Manager’s Affiliates may compete with the Company through any such independent venture, without liability to the Company for so doing.

Section 6.3 Employment of Professionals

The Company may employ such brokers, agents, accountants, attorneys, and other advisors as the Manager may determine to be appropriate for the Company’s business.

Any such services provided by the Manager, or its Affiliates, will be compensated for at reasonable commercial rates.

Section 6.4 Voluntary Withdrawal of a Manager

A Manager of the Company may resign at any time by giving written Notice to all of the Members of the Company; however, this may require approval of a lender if the loan was conditioned on the qualifications of said Manager. The resignation of a Manager shall take effect ninety (90) days after receipt of Notice thereof or at such other time as shall be specified in such Notice or otherwise agreed between the Manager and Members. The acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.

Section 6.5 Removal of a Manager

A Manager may be removed for Good Cause by Members holding seventy-five percent (75%) of the Units. For purposes of the foregoing, “Good Cause” means that the Manager conducted itself on behalf of the Company in a manner that (i) constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct, and (ii) has a material, adverse effect on the Company. In the event the Members vote to remove a Manager for Good Cause, the Manager shall have the right to submit the question of whether sufficient grounds for removal exist to binding arbitration to be conducted as further described in the Agreement.

If a Manager is removed for Good Cause, its rights to any Units it holds will be unaffected including its right to vote and receive Distributable Cash pursuant to Section 4 above. No Member, including the Manager, if applicable, will have any special right to withdraw upon a removal of a Manager.

In the event that a Manager or its principal is guarantying any loan on behalf of the Company, applicable lenders’ consent shall be required prior to any act to remove the Manager.

Section 6.6 [Reserved]

[Reserved]

Section 6.7 Additional Managers

At any time, the Manager, in its sole discretion, may designate any Person (regardless of whether a Member) a Manager.

Any Person becoming a Manager will automatically have the rights, authorities, duties, and obligations of a Manager under the Agreement.

Each Member shall hold in strict confidence any information it receives regarding the Company that is identified as being, or reasonably understood to be, confidential and may not disclose it to any Person other than another Member, except for disclosures:

a. compelled by law, but the Member must notify the Manager promptly of any request for that information before disclosing it, if practicable, to allow the Manager the opportunity to seek a protective order from a court of competent jurisdiction;

b. to advisers or representatives of the Member, but only if they have also agreed to be bound by the provisions of this Section; and

Article 10.
Internal Dispute Resolution Procedure

ALL PROSPECTIVE MEMBERS SHOULD CAREFULLY READ THIS ENTIRE ARTICLE 10 TO ENSURE THAT THEY UNDERSTAND THAT BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT THEY ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO TRIAL AND REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES RELATED TO ANY DISPUTE. THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF THIS ARTICLE IS TO PROTECT THE MEMBERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE INVESTMENTS IN THE COMPANY.

Section 10.1 Introduction

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, the sale of Units, or any associated transaction (hereinafter “Dispute”), the Manager and the Members hereby agree to resolve such Dispute by strictly adhering to the dispute resolution procedure provided in this Article. The provisions of Article 10 will not apply to claims under the Securities Act or Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”).

Section 10.2 Notice of Disputes

The aggrieved party must send written Notice of a Dispute to the Manager.

Section 10.3 Negotiation of Disputes

The parties hereto shall use their best efforts to settle any Dispute. 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 ninety (90) 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 American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the provisions of its commercial mediation rules. The onus is on the aggrieved party to initiate each next step in this dispute resolution procedure as provided below.

a. Tiebreaker Provision. If the disputing parties are unable or unwilling to attempt a negotiated agreement on their own within thirty (30) days of Notice of the Dispute, they shall appoint a mutually acceptable neutral party who shall be either an attorney or CPA licensed in Delaware, familiar with the Securities Act and the Act to review the facts surrounding the Dispute and offer a nonbinding tiebreaking vote and/or proposed resolution. All costs and fees for such informal resolution shall be split equally between the parties to the dispute.

Section 10.4 General Provisions for Alternative Dispute Resolution

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

a. Preliminary Relief. Any party to the Dispute may seek preliminary relief at any time after negotiation described above has failed, but prior to arbitration, under 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 this Article.

b. Consolidation. Identical or sufficiently similar Disputes presented by more than one Member may, at the option of the Manager, be consolidated into a single negotiation, mediation, and/or arbitration.

c. Location of Mediation or Arbitration. Any mediation or arbitration shall be conducted in the venue set forth in Section 10.8, and each party to such mediation or arbitration must attend in person.

d. Attorney Fees and Costs. Each party shall bear its own costs and expenses (including its own attorneys’ fees) and an equal share of the mediator or arbitrators’ fees and any administrative fees, regardless of the outcome.

e. 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 Capital Contributions and any Distributable Cash or interest to which the party may be entitled. An arbitrator will have no authority to award punitive or other damages.

f. 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 these rules and this Article, this Article shall be controlling.

Section 10.5 Mediation

Any Dispute that cannot be settled through negotiation as described in this Article 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 Section 10.6.

If the initial mediation(s) does not completely resolve the Dispute, any party may request, for good cause (which shall be specified in writing) a different mediator for subsequent mediation(s) by serving Notice of the request on the other parties for approval. If good cause exists, such request shall not be unreasonably denied.

a. 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 parties will be provided with a biographical sketch of the mediator. The parties are instructed to review the sketch closely and advise the AAA of any objections they may have to the appointment in writing within five (5) days of receipt. If no objections are received within this timeframe, the mediator shall be deemed acceptable, and mediation scheduled as soon as possible thereafter.

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 certified public accountant, 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.

Section 10.6 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) may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

a. 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, are generally familiar with the subject matter involved in the Dispute. Each side will be given a number of days to strike any unacceptable names, number the remaining names in order of preference, and return the list to the AAA. The AAA 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.

b. Qualifications of Arbitrator. The selected arbitrator shall have specialized knowledge of securities law, unless the dispute pertains to financial accounting issues, in which case the arbitrator shall be a certified public accountant. Further, the selected arbitrator must agree to sign a certification stating that he/she has read this Agreement and all of the documents relevant to this Agreement in their entirety.

c. Limited Discovery. Discovery shall be limited to only this Agreement and those documents pertaining to this Agreement, any written correspondence between the parties, and any other documents specifically requested by the arbitrator as necessary to facilitate his or 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.

Section 10.7 Maintenance of the Status Quo

Unless preliminary relief has been sought and granted pursuant to Section 10.4(a) above, while a Dispute is pending, the Manager shall continue all operations and distributions of Distributable Cash in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Agreement as if the Dispute had not arisen, except that, a complaining Member’s distributions shall be suspended and held in trust by the Manager pending the outcome of the Dispute.

Section 10.8 Venue

Venue for any Dispute arising under this Agreement or any Disputes among any Members or the Company shall be in the county of the principal office of the Company.

ARTICLE 11
TRANSFERS AND MEMBER ADMISSIONS

Section 11.1 Assignee Interest Transferred

The transferee of a Unit will be an Assignee until such time as the Assignee satisfies the requirements of Section 11.5 to become a Member. Until such time as an Assignee is admitted as a Member, such Assignee shall have only those rights set forth in Section 11.2 of this Agreement.

An Assignee must execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Company a written acceptance and adoption of this Agreement by the Assignee and execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Manager a power of attorney in the form approved by the Manager.

Section 11.2 Rights of an Assignee

If an Assignee is not admitted as a Member because of the failure to satisfy the requirements of Section 11.5, such Assignee shall nevertheless be entitled to receive such distributions from the Company as the transferring Member would have been entitled to receive under this Agreement had the transferring Member retained such Units.

Assignees shall have no other rights of the Members, including voting rights and access to Company records and information. Members have legal and economic rights, while Assignees only have the right to receive economic benefits.

Section 11.3 Assignee to Assume Tax Liability

The Assignee of a Unit, as well as any Person who acquires a charging order against a Unit, shall report income, gains, Losses, deductions, and credits with respect to such Unit for the period in which the Assignee interest is held or for the period the charging order is outstanding. The Manager shall deliver to the Assignee or the holder of such charging order, as the case may be, all tax forms required to be delivered to the Members generally indicating that the income from such Unit has been allocated to the holder of the Assignee interest or the holder of the charging order.

Section 11.4 Admission of Members

The Company may, from time to time, admit Assignees of Units from Members as Additional Members, with consent from the Manager.

Section 11.5 Admission Procedure

No Person shall be admitted as a Member unless such Person executes, acknowledges, and delivers to the Company such instruments as the Manager may deem necessary or advisable to effect the admission of such Person as an Additional Member, including, without limitation, the written acceptance and adoption by such Person of the provisions of this Agreement, the power of attorney in the form approved by the Manager, pertinent tax information, as well as any amendments to this Agreement and attorneys’ fees and costs necessitated by the admission of such Additional Member.

Section 11.6 Restrictions on Transfer

Units, or any interest thereof, may not be the subject of any assignment, pledge, mortgage, hypothecation, gift, sale, resale, or other disposition or encumbrance (collectively, a “Transfer”), either to a prospective Assignee or prospective Member, unless the Units are subsequently registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and appropriate state securities laws, or unless, among other conditions set forth in this Agreement, an exemption from registration is available.

Further, no Transfers may be approved, Assignee rights granted, and/or Additional Members admitted unless the Transfer: (a) is approved by the Manager, which approval may be granted or withheld in its sole discretion and subject to such conditions as it may impose; (b) is evidenced by a written agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Manager, that is executed by the transferor, the transferee(s), and the Manager; (c) will not result in violation of the registration requirements of the Securities Act; (d) will not require the Company to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; (e) will not cause any Member to hold more than 19.9% of the Units, unless waived by the Manager, and (e) will not result in the Company being classified for United States federal income tax purposes as an association taxable as a corporation.

The transferor of any Units is required to reimburse the Company for any expenses reasonably incurred in connection with a Transfer, including any legal, accounting, and other expenses, regardless of whether such Transfer is consummated.

Upon the Manager’s request, the transferor shall provide (or, if obtained by the Company, reimburse the Company for) a written opinion of counsel, in a form satisfactory to the Manager, to the effect that such Transfer: (a) will not result in a termination of the Company within the meaning of the Act or § 708(b) of the Internal Revenue Code; and (b) does not violate any applicable federal or state securities law.

The transferee of any Units in the Company that is admitted to the Company as a substitute Member shall succeed to the rights and liabilities of the transferor Member, and, after the effective date of such admission, the Capital Account of the transferor shall become the Capital Account of the transferee to the extent of the Units transferred.

Section 11.7 Non-Recognition of an Unauthorized Transfer or Assignment

Any attempted Transfer in violation of the provisions of this Agreement is void ab initio. The Company shall not be required to recognize the purported interest in the Company of any transferee or Assignee who has obtained such purported interest in the Units as a result of a Transfer that is not authorized by this Agreement. If the Transfer is in doubt, or if there is reasonable doubt as to who is entitled to a distribution of the income realized from a Unit or the interest of an Assignee, the Company may accumulate the income until this issue is finally determined and resolved. Accumulated income shall be credited to the Capital Account of the Member or Assignee whose interest is in question.

Section 11.8 Permitted Transfers

A Member may Transfer its Units without the consent of the Manager or any other Member to a trust for his or her benefit, to his or her spouse, to a trust for the benefit of his or her spouse, to his or her Immediate Family, or to a trust for the benefit of his or her Immediate Family, so long as the proposed Transfer does not: (a) cause the Company to terminate for federal income tax purposes; (b) result in any event of default as to any secured or unsecured obligation of the Company; (c) result in a violation of the Securities Act; (d) cause a reassessment of any Company Assets; or (e) cause any other material, adverse effect to the Company.

Section 11.9 Involuntary Transfers

Upon the death, disability, bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, or dissolution of a Member, the rights and obligations of that Member under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, that Member’s successor(s), estate, or legal representative, and each such Person shall be treated as an Assignee until and unless such Person is admitted as a Member pursuant to the Agreement.

Upon the death or incapacity of an individual Member or holder of an Assignee interest, the personal representative of the individual Member or holder of such interest shall have the same rights, with respect to the Unit holder or Assignee’s interest, as those held by the deceased or incapacitated person, for the purpose of settling or managing the Member’s or holder’s estate or affairs.

Upon any Transfer pursuant to any decree of divorce, dissolution, or separate maintenance, any property settlement, any separation agreement, or any other agreement with a spouse (excluding a permitted Transfer to Immediate Family as set forth in Section 11.8) under which any Units are awarded to the spouse of the Member, such transferee spouse shall be treated as an Assignee until and unless such Person is admitted as a Member pursuant to the Agreement.

An Assignee of any Transfer under this Section shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Article 12.
Dissolution and Termination

Section 12.1 Events of Dissolution

The Company shall be dissolved upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

(a) The Manager may dissolve the Company once all Company Assets have been liquidated and all remaining Company Assets have been distributed to the Members;

(b) An affirmative vote of the Members holding seventy-five percent (75%) of the issued and outstanding Units dissolve the Company;

(c) The withdrawal of the Manager unless (i) the Company has at least one other Manager, or (ii) within ninety (90) days after the withdrawal, a Required Interest votes to continue the business of the Company and to appoint, effective as of the date of withdrawal, one or more additional Managers;

(d) The withdrawal of all the Members, unless the Company is continued in accordance with the Act;

(e) The Company is to be dissolved upon the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 12.2 Effective Date of Dissolution

Absent an election to continue the Company as provided in this Article, dissolution of the Company shall be effective on the date on which the event occurs giving rise to the dissolution, but the Company shall not be wound up until cancelation of the Company’s Certificate of Formation and all remaining Company Assets have been distributed, as provided in this Agreement.

Section 12.3 Operation of the Company after Dissolution

During the period in which the Company is winding up, the business of the Company and the affairs of the Members shall continue to be governed by this Agreement.

Section 12.4 Liquidation of Company Assets

Upon dissolution of the Company, the Manager or, in the absence of a Manager, a liquidator appointed by a Required Interest, shall liquidate remaining Company Assets, apply, and distribute the proceeds derived from the liquidation of the remaining Company Assets as contemplated by this Agreement, and cause the cancellation of the Company’s Certificate of Formation.

a. Payment of Company Creditors and Provision for Payment Reserves. The proceeds derived from the liquidation of Company Assets shall first be applied toward or paid to any creditor of the Company who is not a Member. The order of priority of payment to any creditor shall be as required by applicable law. After payment of liabilities owing to creditors, excluding the Members, the Manager or liquidator shall set up such reserves as are deemed reasonably necessary for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company.

b. Ability to Create an Escrow Account. Any reserves for contingent liabilities may, but need not, be paid over by the Manager or liquidator to a bank to be held in escrow for the purpose of paying any such contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations. Following the expiration of such period as the Manager or liquidator may deem advisable, such remaining reserves shall be distributed to the Members or their assigns in the order of priority set forth in the provisions of this Agreement relating to distributions to the Members.

c. Distribution of Company Assets after the Payment of Liabilities and Establishment of Reserves. After paying liabilities and providing for reserves, the Manager or liquidator shall satisfy any debts owed to the Members with the remaining net assets of the Company, if any, and then distribute any remaining assets to the Members, as set forth in Section 4.1.

d. Non-Cash Assets. If any part of the net assets distributable to the Members consists of notes, real estate equity or interests, or other non-cash assets, the Manager or liquidator shall distribute any non-tangible property interests directly to the Members and may take whatever steps they deem appropriate to convert tangible property interests into cash or any other form to facilitate distribution. If any assets of the Company are to be distributed in kind, such assets shall be distributed on the basis of their fair market value at the date of distribution, as determined by the Manager or liquidator.

Section 12.5 Company Assets Sole Source

The Members shall look solely to Company Assets for the payment of any debts or liabilities owed by the Company to the Members and for the return of their Capital Contributions and liquidation amounts. If Company Assets remaining after the payment or discharge of all of its debts and liabilities to Persons other than the Members is insufficient to return the Members’ Capital Contributions, the Members shall have no recourse against the Company, the Manager, or any other Members, except to the extent that such other Members may have outstanding debts or obligations owing to the Company.

Section 12.6 Sale of Company Assets during Term of the Company

The sale of Company Assets during the term of the Company shall not be considered a liquidation of the Company and therefore is not a dissolution and termination as defined under this Article.

Article 13.
Indemnification

Section 13.1 General Indemnification

The Manager, its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, agents, partners, members, managers, employees, and any Person the Manager designates as an indemnified Person (each, an “Indemnified Party”) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be indemnified on an after-tax basis out of Company Assets (and the Manager shall be entitled to grant indemnities on behalf of the Company, and to make payments out of the Company, to any Indemnified Party in each case in accordance with this Section) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements, and other amounts (collectively, “Liabilities”) arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, and proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, in which any Indemnified Party is or may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, in connection with the investments and activities of the Company or by reason of such Person being a Manager, or agent of a Manager, of the Company.

However, no such Indemnified Party shall be so indemnified, with respect to any matter for which indemnification is sought, to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines pursuant to a final and non-appealable judgment that, in respect of such matter, the Indemnified Party had (a) acted in bad faith or in the reasonable belief that the party’s action was opposed to the best interests of the Company or constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct or breach of such party’s fiduciary duty to the Company, if any, or (b) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had cause to believe beyond any reasonable doubt the party’s conduct was criminal. An Indemnified Party shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section because the Indemnified Party had an interest in the transaction with respect to which indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 13.2 Tax Liability Indemnification

Each Member shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Liabilities arising from any underpayment in any Member’s taxes on any amounts distributed by the Company to such Member that results in one or more “imputed underpayments” as such term is defined by the IRS, even if such imputed underpayment is determined after the date the respective Member is no longer a Member of the Company. This indemnification shall specifically be effective and enforceable even after a Member is no longer a Member of the Company if such former Member was a Member in the Reviewed Year.

Section 13.3 Indemnity for Misrepresentation of a Prospective Member

Each Member shall indemnify and hold harmless the Manager and other Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Liabilities of whatsoever nature to or from any Person arising from or in any way connected with that Member’s misrepresentation(s) that it met the “suitability standards” established by the Manager for membership in the Company.

Section 13.4 Advancement of Indemnification Funds

To the fullest extent permitted by law, amounts in respect of Liabilities incurred by an Indemnified Party in defending any claim, demand, action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, shall from time to time be advanced by the Company prior to a determination that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified as set forth in Section 13.1.

Section 13.5 No Impairment of Indemnification

No amendment, modification, or repeal of this provision or any other provision of this Agreement shall in any manner terminate, reduce, or impair the right of any past Indemnified Party to be indemnified by the Company or the obligations of the Company to indemnify any such Indemnified Party under and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification, or repeal with respect to any claim, demand, action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification, or repeal, regardless of when such claim, demand, action, suit, or proceeding may arise or be asserted.

Section 13.6 Exculpation of Actions in Good Faith

Neither the Manager nor its Affiliates shall be liable to the Company or any Member for any loss which arises out of any action or omission of such party if (a) such party determined, in good faith, that such course of conduct was in, or was not opposed to, the best interest of the Company and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such party’s conduct was unlawful, and (b) such course of conduct did not constitute a breach of such party’s fiduciary duty (if any) to the Company or gross negligence or willful misconduct of such party.

Section 13.7 No Termination of Indemnification Rights

The provisions of this Article shall survive the dissolution of the Company.

Article 14.

Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed as authorizing the Manager, or the liquidator, to amend, change or modify this Agreement except in accordance with Section 14.3 or as may be otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement.

The foregoing power of attorney is hereby declared to be irrevocable and a power coupled with an interest, and it shall survive and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, not be affected by the subsequent death, incompetency, disability, incapacity, dissolution, bankruptcy or termination of any Member and the transfer of all or any portion of such Member’s Units and shall extend to such Members heirs, successors, assigns and personal representatives.

Each Member shall execute and deliver to the Manager, or the liquidator, within 15 days after receipt of the request therefor, such further designation, powers of attorney and other instruments as any of such officers or the liquidator determines to be necessary or appropriate to effectuate this Agreement and the purposes of the Company.
