3.2 Restrictions on Transfer.

(a) Restrictions on Transfer. A Member may Transfer his, her or its Units only in compliance with this Article 3. Restrictions have been placed upon the ability of all Members to resell or otherwise dispose of any Units obtained or acquired hereunder including, without limitation, the following:

(1) Any Units offered for sale by a Member will be offered first to all Members (on a pro rata basis, based on the number of Units held by such Member) at the then fair market value of the selling Member’s Units. Any remaining Units not purchased by any Members within thirty (30) calendar days of being offered to the Members may then be offered for sale to any third party if such offer(s) and sale(s) comply with the remainder of this Section 3.2(a) in its entirety.

(2) No Member may resell or otherwise transfer any Units without the satisfaction of certain conditions designed to comply with applicable tax and securities laws, including (without limitation) the requirement that certain legal opinions be provided to the Members and the Manager with respect to such matters at the expense of the Member requesting such transfer. The transferee must meet any investor qualifications as is set forth by the Manager. Furthermore, if the Pennsylvania Commissioner imposes a transfer restriction on the Units, then Units may not be sold or transferred without the prior written consent of such Commissioner except as permitted in the Commissioner’s Rules.

(3) The Units have not been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon exemptions provided for therein. Units may not be sold or otherwise transferred without registration under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. In addition, no sales or transfers may be made to in violation or contravention of the Securities Act or any other applicable federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations.

(4) A legend will be placed upon all instruments evidencing ownership of Units in the LLC stating that the Units have not been registered under the Securities Act, and setting forth the foregoing limitations on resale. Notations regarding these limitations shall be made in the appropriate records of the LLC with respect to all Units offered hereby. The foregoing steps will also be taken in connection with the issuance of any new instruments for any Units that are presented for transfer, to the extent the Manager deems appropriate.

(5) The LLC will charge a reasonable transfer fee (to reimburse the LLC for administrative costs associated with transfers) per transfer of ownership. If a Member transfers Units to more than one person, except Transferees who will hold title together, the transfer to each person will be considered a separate transfer.

(b) Null and Void. An attempted Transfer of all or a portion of any Units that is not in compliance with this Article 3 in its entirety will be null and void. A Transferee may not become a substitute Member without the express written consent of Members holding more than fifty percent (50.0%) of the total Units outstanding. Such consent may be withheld for any reason (or no reason). In the event that such consent is granted, the Transfer and the transferee must comply with all the provisions of this Agreement and all applicable law. No Units may be transferred if, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Manager, such a Transfer would jeopardize the availability of exemptions from registration under federal securities laws, the tax status of the LLC or cause termination of the LLC for federal income tax purposes.

(c) Permitted Transfers. A Member may at any time Transfer one or more Units to a Permitted Transferee if, as of the date the Transfer takes effect, the LLC is reasonably satisfied that all of the following conditions are met:

(1) the Transferee is a person with the same investor and Member qualifications as the original Member;

(2) the Transfer, alone or in combination with other Transfers, will not result in the LLC’s termination for federal income tax purposes or a change in the tax status of the LLC;

(3) the Transfer is the subject of an effective registration under, or exempt from the registration requirements of, applicable state and federal securities laws and regulations;

(4) the LLC receives from the Transferee the information and agreements reasonably required to permit it to file federal and state income tax returns and reports; and

(5) the LLC receives payment from the Transferee of a reasonable transfer fee for each Transferee. Where Transferees hold title together, as joint tenants, tenants in common, partners or otherwise, a Transfer to them shall only incur one transfer fee.

(d) Transferor’s Membership Status. If a Member Transfers less than all of his, her, or its Units, the Member’s rights with respect to the transferred portion of the Unit, including the right to vote or otherwise participate in the LLC’s governance and the right to receive Distributions, will terminate as of the effective date of the Transfer. However, the Member will remain liable for any obligation with respect to the transferred portion that existed prior to the effective date of the Transfer, including (without limitation) any costs or damages resulting from the Member’s breach of this Agreement. If the Member Transfers all of his, her or its Units, the Transfer will constitute an event of Dissociation.

(e) Transferee’s Status.

(1) Admission as a Member. A Member who Transfers one or more Units has no power to confer on the Transferee the status of a Member. A Transferee may be admitted as a Member only in accordance with the provisions of this Article 3. A Transferee who wishes to become a Member must make an application in writing to the LLC and provide evidence, as requested by the LLC, of compliance with all conditions to admission, as set forth above. Prior to admission, each proposed member must execute and deliver a counterpart of this Agreement, as amended to date, or a separate written agreement to be bound hereby.

(2) Rights of Non-Member Transferee. A Transferee who is not admitted as a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Article 3 (i) has no right to vote or otherwise participate in the LLC’s governance, (ii) is not entitled to receive information concerning the LLC’s affairs or inspect the LLC’s books and records, (iii) with respect to the transferred Units, is entitled to receive the Distributions to which the Member would have been entitled had the Transfer not occurred, and (iv) is subject to the restrictions imposed by this Article 3 to the same extent as a Member. Any provision of the Agreement permitting or requiring the Members to take action by vote or written approval of a specified percentage of the Units shall be deemed to mean only Units then owned by Members.

3.3 Expulsion of a Member. At any time there are more than two (2) Members, the LLC may expel a Member for cause. Cause for expulsion exists if the Member has materially breached or is unable to perform the Member’s material obligations under this Agreement. A Member’s expulsion from the LLC will be effective upon the Member’s receipt of written notice of the expulsion.

3.4 No Withdrawals. Except as expressly provided herein, no Member or Transferee may withdraw his, her or its Contribution to the LLC at any time nor may any Member compel the LLC to effectuate any redemption of his, her or its Units.

3.5 Dissociation. “Dissociation” from the LLC occurs upon a Member’s expulsion, transfer or redemption of all of the Member’s Units, withdrawal or resignation (an “Event of Dissociation”). Upon the occurrence of an Event of Dissociation: (a) the Member’s right to participate in the LLC’s governance, receive information concerning the LLC’s affairs and inspect the LLC’s books and records will terminate and (b) unless the Dissociation resulted from the Transfer of the Member’s Units, the Member will be entitled to receive the Distributions to which the Member would have been entitled as of the effective date of the Dissociation had the Dissociation not occurred. The Member will remain liable for any obligation to the LLC that existed prior to the effective date of the Dissociation, including any costs or damages from the Member’s breach of this Agreement. The Member will have no automatic right to any return of his, her or its capital (or redemption of his, her or its Units) prior to the termination of the LLC unless the LLC affirmatively elects (in its sole and absolute discretion) to return capital to a Member. The effect of such Dissociation on the remaining Members who do not sell or dissociate will be to increase their percentage share of the remaining assets of the LLC, and thus their proportionate share of its future earnings, losses and distributions. The reduction in the outstanding Units will also increase the relative voting power of remaining Members.

3.6 Verification of Units. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of a Member’s written request, the LLC will provide such Member with a statement evidencing his, her or its ownership of Units in the LLC. This verification will serve the sole purpose of verifying the Member’s interest in the LLC and shall not constitute a certificated security, negotiable instrument or other vehicle by which to effectuate a transfer of Units.

3.7 Manner of Action by Members.

(a) Meetings.

(1) Right to Call. The Manager, or any combination of Members holding in the aggregate more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total outstanding Units, may call a meeting of Members by giving written notice to all Members not less than thirty (30), or more than sixty (60) days prior to the date of the meeting. The notice must specify the date, time and place of the meeting and the nature of any business to be transacted. A Member may waive notice of a meeting of Members orally, in writing, or by attendance at the meeting.

(2) Time and Place. Unless otherwise specified in the notice of meeting, all meetings shall be held at 2:00 p.m. on a regular business day of the LLC, at the LLC’s principal place of business. No meeting may be held on a Sunday or legal holiday; at a time that is before 7:30 a.m. or after 9:00 p.m.; or at a place more than sixty (60) miles from the LLC’s principal place of business.

(3) Proxy Voting. A Member may act at a meeting of Members through a Person authorized by signed proxy.

(5) Required Vote. Except with respect to matters for which a greater minimum vote is required by the Act or this Agreement, the vote of Members present whose aggregate holdings exceed fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Units will constitute the act of the Members at a meeting of Members.

(b) Written Consent. The Members may act without a meeting by written consent describing the action and signed by Members whose aggregate holdings of the Units equal or exceed the minimum that would be necessary to take the action at a meeting at which all Members were present.

3.8 Limitation on Individual Authority. A Member who is not also the Manager has no authority to bind the LLC. A Member whose unauthorized act obligates the LLC to a third party will indemnify the LLC for any costs or damages the LLC incurs as a result of the unauthorized act.

3.9 Negation of Fiduciary Duties. A Member who is not also the Manager owes no fiduciary duties to the LLC or to the other Members solely by reason of being a Member.

The liquidator shall liquidate the LLC’s assets as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair market value thereof, either by sale to third parties by auction to the highest bidder in a reasonably promoted auction (or other commercially reasonable suitable means, if necessary).

(d) Final Accounting. The liquidator will make proper accountings, (1) to the end of the month in which the event of dissolution occurred, and (2) to the date on which the LLC is finally and completely liquidated.

(e) Duties and Authority of Liquidator. The liquidator will make adequate provision for the discharge of all of the LLC’s debts, obligations and liabilities. The liquidator may sell, encumber or retain for distribution in kind any of the LLC’s assets. Any gain or loss recognized on the sale of assets will be allocated to the Members’ Capital Accounts in accordance with the provisions of Article 4 above. With respect to any asset the liquidator determines to retain for distribution in kind, the liquidator will allocate to the Members’ Capital Accounts the amount of gain or loss that would have been recognized had the asset been sold at its fair market value.

(f) Final Distribution. The liquidator will distribute any assets remaining after the discharge or accommodation of the LLC’s debts, obligations and liabilities to the Members in proportion to their Capital Accounts. The liquidator will distribute any assets distributable in kind to the Members in undivided interests as tenants in common. A Member whose Capital Account is negative will have no liability to the LLC, the LLC’s creditors or any other Member with respect to the negative balance.

(g) Required Filings. The liquidator will file with the appropriate Secretary of State such statements, certificates and other instruments, and take such other actions, as are reasonably necessary or appropriate to effectuate and confirm the cessation of the LLC’s existence.

ARTICLE 8: GENERAL PROVISIONS

8.1 Amendments. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Manager or any Member may propose, for consideration and action, an amendment to this Agreement or to the Articles. Except as otherwise stated herein, a proposed amendment will become effective at such time as it is approved by the Members holding a majority of the outstanding Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager on behalf of the LLC will execute and file any amendment to the Articles required by the Act. If any such amendment results in inconsistencies between the Articles and this Agreement, this Agreement will be considered to have been amended in the specific areas necessary to eliminate such inconsistencies.

8.2 Power of Attorney. Each Member appoints the Manager, with full power of substitution, as the Member’s attorney-in-fact, to act in the Member’s name to execute and file (a) all certificates, applications, reports and other instruments necessary to qualify or maintain the LLC as a limited liability company in the states and foreign countries where the LLC conducts its activities, (b) all instruments that effect or confirm changes or modifications of the LLC or its status, including, without limitation, amendments to the Articles, and (c) all instruments of transfer necessary to effect the LLC’s dissolution and termination. The power of attorney granted by this Article is irrevocable, coupled with an interest and shall survive the death of the Member.

8.3 Binding Arbitration. ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION, ENFORCEMENT, INTERPRETATION OR VALIDITY THEREOF, INCLUDING (WITHOUT LIMITATION) THE DETERMINATION OF THE SCOPE OR APPLICABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, OR ANY OTHER DISPUTE, CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF ANY INTERACTION BETWEEN THE LLC AND A MEMBER, SHALL BE BROUGHT WITHIN ONE YEAR OF ITS ACCRUAL AND BE DETERMINED BY ARBITRATION IN THE COUNTY OF ORANGE, STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA, BEFORE ONE ARBITRATOR. THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE ADMINISTERED BY JAMS PURSUANT TO ITS COMPREHENSIVE ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES (IF THE AMOUNT IN CONTROVERSY EXCEEDS $250,000) OR ITS STREAMLINED ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES (IF THE AMOUNT IN CONTROVERSY IS LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO $250,000). IF THE ARBITRATION IS A CLASS ARBITRATION, THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT, OF THE PURPORTED CLAIMS OF ALL PUTATIVE CLASS MEMBERS, SHALL BE USED TO DETERMINE WHICH RULES APPLY. JUDGMENT ON THE AWARD MAY BE ENTERED IN ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION THEREOF. THIS CLAUSE SHALL NOT PRECLUDE PARTIES FROM SEEKING PROVISIONAL REMEDIES IN AID OF ARBITRATION FROM A COURT OF APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION. THE PREVAILING PARTY IN ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY HEREUNDER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER ITS COSTS OF ARBITRATION AND REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES THEREOF.

8.4 Notices. Notices contemplated by this Agreement may be sent by any commercially reasonable means, including hand delivery, certified first class mail, facsimile, email or private courier.

The notice will be effective on the date of confirmed receipt or, in the case of notice sent by certified first class mail, the fifth (5^th) calendar day after mailing.

8.5 Resolution of Inconsistencies. If there are inconsistencies between this Agreement and the Articles, the Articles will control. If there are inconsistencies between this Agreement and the Act, this Agreement will control, except to the extent that the inconsistencies relate to provisions of the Act that the Members cannot alter by agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless the language or context clearly indicates a different intent, the provisions of this Agreement pertaining to the LLC’s governance and financial affairs and the rights of the Members upon Dissociation and dissolution will supersede the provisions of the Act relating to the same matters.

The last day of the period is included, unless it is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, in which case the period will run until the end of the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday. For purposes of this paragraph, a day shall be deemed to end at 5:00 p.m. in the time zone where LLC then maintains its principal place of business.

8.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Articles comprise the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

8.10 Waiver. No right or remedy under this Agreement may be waived, except by an instrument in writing signed by the party sought to be charged with the waiver.

8.11 General Construction Principles. Words in any gender are deemed to include the other genders. The singular is deemed to include the plural and vice versa (as needed in order to give the Agreement its proper intended effect).

8.12 Binding Effect.
