(b) waives objection to consideration of a particular matter at the meeting that is not within the purpose or purposes described in the Notice of meeting, unless such Voting Member objects to considering the matter when it is presented.

5.7 Waiver of Notice. Whenever any Notice is required to be given to any Voting Member under the provisions of this Agreement, a waiver thereof in writing signed by such Voting Member, whether before or after the time stated therein, will be deemed equivalent to the giving of such Notice.

5.8 Action Without a Meeting. Any action that is required to or may be taken at a meeting of the Voting Members may be taken without a meeting if consents in writing, setting

forth the action so taken, are signed by a Voting Member Majority. Such consents will have the same force and effect as a vote at a meeting duly held.

Such Notice will be given in the manner provided in Section 11.4. Any Director may waive Notice of any meeting. The attendance of a Director at any meeting will constitute a waiver of Notice of such meeting, except where a Director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business presented because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors need be specified in the Notice or waiver of Notice of such meeting.

(g) Quorum and Manner of Acting. In order to have a quorum for transaction of business at any meeting of the Board of Directors, a majority of the number of Directors fixed by this Agreement must be present.

the secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or forwards such dissent in the manner provided in Section 11.4 to the secretary of the Company immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent will not apply to a Director who voted in favor of such action.

(j) Committees.

Each such committee, to the extent provided in such resolution or resolutions, will have and may exercise all of the authority of the Board in the management of Inergy Holdings; provided, however, that the designation of each such committee and the delegation thereto of authority will not operate to relieve the Board, or any member thereof, of any responsibility imposed upon it or such member by law. The Board will establish the following standing committees: an audit committee and a compensation committee. Each committee will keep regular minutes of its proceedings. The secretary or an assistant secretary of the Company may act as secretary for each such committee if the committee so requests.

ARTICLE VII

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION

7.1 Limitation of Liability; Indemnification. None of the Members, Directors or officers of the Company will be liable to the Members, the Company or Inergy Holdings for (a) any action or inaction except to the extent such Person acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misconduct in the performance of such Person’s duties to the Company, the Members or Inergy Holdings, (b) any action or inaction arising from reliance upon the opinion or advice as to legal matters of legal counsel or as to accounting matters of accountants selected by any of them in good faith or (c) any action or inaction of any agent, contractor or consultant selected by any of them in good faith.

7.2 Limitation of Liability. No Person will be liable to the Company, its Members or Inergy Holdings for any loss, damage, liability or expense suffered by the Company, its Members or Inergy Holdings on account of any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Person as a Director or an officer of the Company or by such Person while serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer or in any other comparable position of any Other Enterprise, if such Person discharges such Person’s duties in good faith, and in a manner such Person reasonably believes to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or Inergy Holdings. The liability of a Director or an officer hereunder will be limited only for those actions taken or omitted to be taken by such Person in the discharge of such Person’s obligations in connection with the management of the business and affairs of the Company or any Other Enterprise. The foregoing limitation of liability will apply to all Directors and officers of the Company.

7.3 Right to Indemnification. The Company will indemnify each Person who has been or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or appellate (regardless of whether such action, suit or proceeding is by or in the right of the Company or by third parties) by reason of the fact that such Person is or was a Member, Director or officer of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer or in any other comparable position of any Other Enterprise, against all liabilities and expenses, including judgments, amounts paid in settlement, attorneys’ fees, ERISA excise taxes or penalties, fines and other expenses, actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding (including the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of such action, suit or proceeding); provided, however, that the Company will not be required to indemnify or advance expenses to any Person on account of such Person’s conduct that was finally adjudged to have been knowingly fraudulent, deliberately dishonest or willful misconduct; provided, further, that the Company will not be required to indemnify or advance expenses to any Person in connection with an action, suit or proceeding initiated by such Person unless the initiation of such action, suit or proceeding was authorized in advance by the Board of Directors or the Voting Members; provided, further, that a Director or officer will be indemnified hereunder only for those actions taken or omitted to be taken by such Director or officer in the discharge of such Director’s or officer’s obligations in connection with the management of the

business and affairs of the Company, Inergy Holdings or any Other Enterprise. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or under a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, will not, of itself, create a presumption that such Person’s conduct was finally adjudged to have been knowingly fraudulent, deliberately dishonest or willful misconduct. The foregoing right to indemnification will apply to all Persons serving as Directors or officers and to all Persons who serve as a representatives of the Company at any time or who serve at any time at the request of the Company as a director, officer or in any other comparable position of any Other Enterprise. Nothing herein prevents one or more of the Members or Inergy Holdings from indemnifying their respective representatives or directors or officers under such Member’s or Inergy Holdings’ organizational documents or other agreements. If any Person is entitled to indemnification both from the Company, from a Member or from Inergy Holdings, then indemnification would come first from Inergy Holdings, then the Company and thereafter from the Member.

7.4 Enforcement of Indemnification. If the Company refuses to indemnify any Person who may be entitled to be indemnified or to have expenses advanced under this Article VII, such Person may maintain an action in any court of competent jurisdiction against the Company to determine whether or not such Person is entitled to such indemnification or advancement of expenses hereunder. If such court action is successful and the Person is determined to be entitled to such indemnification or advancement of expenses, such Person will be reimbursed by the Company for all fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any such action (including the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of such action).

7.5 Advancement of Expenses. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred in defending an action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or appellate, will be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Person to repay such amount if it is ultimately be determined that such Person is not entitled to indemnification by the Company. No advance will be made in instances where the Board of Directors, the Voting Members or independent legal counsel for the Company reasonably determines that such Person would not be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

7.6 Non-Exclusivity. The indemnification and the advancement of expenses provided by this Article VII is not exclusive of any other rights to which those Persons seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any statute, or any agreement, vote of the Board of Directors or Voting Members, policy of insurance or otherwise, both as to action in their official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding their respective offices, and will not limit in any way any right that the Company may have to make additional indemnifications with respect to the same or different Persons or classes of Persons. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VII will continue as to a Person who has ceased to be a Member, Director, officer or representative of the Company or Inergy Holdings, and as to a Person who has ceased serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer or in any other comparable position of any Other Enterprise and will inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such Person.

7.7 Insurance. The Voting Members or the Board of Directors may cause the Company to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any Person who is or was a Member, Director, officer, agent, employee or representative of the Company or Inergy Holdings, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer or in any other comparable position of any Other Enterprise, against any liability asserted against such Person and incurred by such Person in any such capacity, or arising out of such Person’s status as such, whether or not the Company would have the power, or the obligation, to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Article VII.

7.8 Amendment and Vesting of Rights. The rights granted or created hereby will be vested in each Person entitled to indemnification hereunder as a bargained-for, contractual condition of such Person’s being or serving or having served as a Director, officer or representative of the Company or serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer or in any other comparable position of any Other Enterprise and, while this Article VII may be amended or repealed, no such amendment or repeal will release, terminate or adversely affect the rights of such Person under this Article VII with respect to any (a) act taken or the failure to take any act by such Person prior to such amendment or repeal or (b) action, suit or proceeding concerning such act or failure to act filed after such amendment or repeal.

7.9 Definitions. For purposes of this Article VII, references to:

(a) The “Company” includes, in addition to the resulting or surviving limited liability company, any constituent limited liability company (or other entity) (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger so that any Person who is or was a member, manager, director or officer of such constituent limited liability company (or other entity), or is or was serving at the request of such constituent limited liability company (or other entity) as a director, officer or in any other comparable position of any Other Enterprise will stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article VII with respect to the resulting or surviving limited liability company (or other entity) as such Person would if such Person had served the resulting or surviving limited liability company (or other entity) in the same capacity;

interest of any Other Enterprise will be deemed to have acted “in the best interest of the Company” as referred to in this Article VII; and

(f) “officer” includes an “authorized person” who is authorized to act on behalf of the Company pursuant to the terms hereof, whether or not such Person has been designated an officer of the Company.

7.10 Severability. If any provision of this Article VII or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, the remaining provisions of this Article VII and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will not be affected thereby and, to the fullest extent possible, the court finding such provision invalid, illegal or unenforceable must modify and construe the provision so as to render it valid and enforceable as against all Persons and to give the maximum possible protection to Persons subject to indemnification hereby within the bounds of validity, legality and enforceability. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Member, Director, officer or representative of the Company or any Person who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer or in any other comparable position of any Other Enterprise, is entitled under any provision of this Article VII to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of the judgments, amounts paid in settlement, attorneys’ fees, penalties, ERISA excise taxes, fines or other expenses actually and reasonably incurred by any such Person in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (including the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of such action, suit or proceeding), whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or appellate, but not, however, for all of the total amount thereof, the Company will nevertheless indemnify such Person for the portion thereof to which such Person is entitled.

(a) All contracts or transactions not involving Inergy Holdings that are between the Company and its Members, Directors or officers or between the Company and another Person in which a Member, Director or officer has a financial interest or with which a Member, Director or officer is affiliated are permissible if such contract or transaction, and such Member’s, Director’s or officer’s interest therein, are fully disclosed to the Voting Members and approved by the Voting Members.

(b) All contracts or transactions involving Inergy Holdings and the Members, Directors or officers of the Company in which a Member, Director or officer has a financial interest that is not proportionate to such Member’s ownership interest in Inergy Holdings or with which a Member, Director or officer is affiliated are permissible if such contract or transaction, and such Member’s, Director’s or officer’s interest therein, are fully disclosed to and approved by a conflicts committee of the Board of Directors.

7.12 Other Business Ventures. Any Member may engage in, or possess an interest in, other business ventures of every nature and description, independently or with others, whether or not similar or identical to the business of the Company or Inergy Holdings, and neither the Company nor any Member will have any right by virtue of this Agreement in or to such other business ventures or to the income or profits derived therefrom. The Members and their

representatives are not required to devote all of their time or business efforts to the affairs of the Company, but will devote so much of their time and attention to the Company as is reasonably necessary and advisable to manage the affairs of the Company to the best advantage of the Company. The foregoing will not supersede any employment, confidentiality, noncompetition or other specific agreement that may exist between the Company (or an affiliate of the Company) and any Member (or an affiliate of any Member).

Each Offeree that is a Member will be entitled to purchase the Offered Interest in the proportion that such Member’s Percentage Interest bears to all of the Percentage Interests held by the other Offerees that are Members. The Company will be entitled to purchase the remainder of the Offered Interest, if any. However, the Offerees may agree among themselves as to the Percentage Interest to be purchased by each Offeree.

(d) If the Offerees have elected to purchase the Offered Interest, the Transfer of such Interest must be consummated as soon as practical (but in any event within 10 Business Days) after the expiration of the First Offer Election Period. If the Offerees fail to elect to purchase all of the Offered Interest, the Transferor may, within 90 days after the expiration of the First Offer Election Period, Transfer all (but not less than all) of the Offered Interest to the Person or Persons specified in the First Offer Notice at a price and on terms no more favorable to such Person or Persons than offered to the Offerees as described in the First Offer Notice; provided, however, that prior to such Transfer, such third parties must agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and deliver to the Company an executed counterpart of this Agreement. If the Offered Interest is not transferred within such 90-day period, then it will again be subject to the provisions of this Section 9.2 with respect to any subsequent Transfer.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Transferor has consented to the purchase of less than all of the Offered Interest, no Offeree may purchase any of the Offered Interest unless all of the Offered Interest is to be purchased by the Offerees.

9.3 Exempt Transfers. The restrictions contained in Section 9.2 will not apply with respect to:

(i) any Transfer to the trustee of a revocable trust (a) of which the Member is the sole trustee, (b) for the substantial benefit of any of the following: such Member; one or more of the Persons described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) of the definition of Controlled Person; and one or more entities exempt from tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code; and (c) over which such Member has, directly or indirectly, the exclusive right to vote and dispose of Original Holdings Common Units;

(ii) any Transfer to the executor or personal representative of an estate, but only if the ultimate distributees are any of the following: Persons of the classes described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi) of the definition of Controlled Person; or one or more entities exempt from tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code;

(iii) any Transfer to a conservator or similar Person pursuant to the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction adjudicating a Member who is a natural person incapacitated to manage such Member’s person or estate, but only if the ultimate distributees are any of the following: (a) such Member; (b) Persons of the classes described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) of the definition of Controlled Person or (c) one or more entities exempt from tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code; and

(iii) any Transfer to the Company;

provided, however, that the restrictions contained in Section 9.1 will continue to be applicable to the Interests after any such Transfer (other than a Transfer to the Company), and, before any such Transfer is effected (other than a Transfer to the Company), the transferees of such Interests must agree in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement and execute and deliver to the Company a counterpart of this Agreement.

9.4 Substitute Members. No assignee of all or part of a Member’s Interest will become a Member in place of the Member assigning the Interest (a “Substitute Member”) unless and until:

(a) the transferring Member has stated such intention in the instrument of assignment;

(b) the Transferee has executed an instrument accepting and adopting the terms and provisions of this Agreement;

(c) unless waived by the Voting Members, the Transferee delivers an opinion of legal counsel acceptable to the Company that the Transfer will not result in a termination of the Company pursuant to Section 708 of the Code and such Transfer is exempt from registration under all applicable securities laws;

(d) the transferring Member or Transferee has paid all reasonable expenses of the Company in connection with the admission of the Transferee as a Substitute Member; and

(e) all non-transferring Voting Members, in their sole and absolute discretion, have consented in writing to such Transferee becoming a Substitute Member.

In addition to the above criteria, if the Transferor retains the right to vote, grant approvals or give consents with respect to any transferred Interest, the Transferee will not become a Substitute Member. Upon satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in this Section 9.4 with respect to a particular Transferee, the Voting Members will cause this Agreement to be duly amended to reflect the admission of the Transferee as a Substitute Member.

9.5 Effect of Admission as a Substitute Member. Unless and until admitted as a Substitute Member pursuant to Section 9.4, a Transferee will not be entitled to exercise any rights of a Member in the Company, including the right to vote, grant approvals or give consents with respect to such Interest, the right to require any information or accounting with respect to the Company’s business or the right to inspect the Company’s books and records, but such Transferee will only be entitled to receive, to the extent of the Interest transferred to it, the Distributions to which the transferring Member would be entitled. A Transferee that has become a Substitute Member has, to the extent of the Interest transferred to it, all the rights and powers of the Person for whom it is substituted and is subject to the restrictions and liabilities of a Member under this Agreement and the Act; provided, however that if more than one Transferee receives an Interest as a result of the death or disability of a Member, such Transferees must appoint one representative to vote, grant approvals or give consents with respect to the entire Interest transferred as a result of such death or disability. Upon admission of a Transferee as a Substitute Member, the transferring Member will cease to be a Member of the Company to the extent of such Interest. A Person will not cease to be a Member upon assignment of all of such Member’s Interest unless and until the Transferee becomes a Substitute Member. In addition, such Person will continue to have the right to vote, grant approvals and give consents with respect to the Interest transferred until such time as the Transferee becomes a Substitute Member.

9.6 Additional Members. Additional Members (whether Voting Members or Non-Voting Members) may be admitted to the Company and additional Interests may be issued only by the consent of the Voting Members, and the Percentage Interests will be adjusted as approved by the Voting Members.

9.7 Resignation. No Member may resign or withdraw from the Company.

9.8 Drag-Along and Tag-Along Rights. If the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities elect to sell a majority of their aggregate Interests to any Person or group of Persons acting in concert (including one or more Members) in a bona fide transaction or series of related transactions for valid consideration, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities will give Notice of such sale (the “Sale Notice”) to all Members not participating in the sale (collectively, the “Nonselling Members”) not less than 30 days prior to the closing of such sale and, in connection with such sale: (a) the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities will have the option (the “Drag-Along Option”) to compel the Nonselling Members to sell all of their Interests in such sale at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities, which Drag-Along Option will be exercised by stating the intention to exercise the Drag-Along Option in the Sale Notice, and if not so stated in the Sale Notice, the Drag-Along Option will be deemed to have been waived; and (b) each Nonselling Member will have the option (the “Tag-Along Option”) to compel the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities to include all of such Nonselling Member’s Interest in the sale at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities, which Tag-Along Option will be exercised by stating the intention to

exercise the Tag-Along Option in a Notice given by such Nonselling Member to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities within 15 days following the giving of the Sale Notice.

9.9 Purchase of Interest Upon Sale of Holdings Common Units. If, at any time, a Member (other than the sole remaining Member of the Company) and such Member’s Controlled Persons own, beneficially and of record, in the aggregate, less than 0.5% of the number of issued and outstanding Holdings Common Units owned, beneficially and of record, by all Members and their Controlled Persons (such event, a “Reduction Event”), then the Company will have the option to redeem all (but not less than all) of such Member’s Interest for an amount equal to such Member’s Capital Account balance as of the last day of the month in which the Reduction Event occurred, with the closing of such redemption to take place within 30 days following the last day of such month. The restrictions contained in Section 9.2 will not apply to Transfers under this Section 9.9.

9.10 Redemptions to Align Percentage Interest with Holdings Ownership Percentage. If, at the end of any given fiscal year (or at such times as the Voting Members may determine), the Holdings Ownership Percentage of a Member is less than the Percentage Interest of such Member, then the Company will have the option to redeem a portion of the Interest of such Member so that the Holdings Ownership Percentage of such Member is equal to the Percentage Interest of such Member, for an amount equal to the Capital Account balance with respect to the purchased Interest as of the last day of the month immediately preceding the month in which the redemption occurs. The restrictions contained in Section 9.2 will not apply to Transfers under this Section 9.10.

9.11 Miscellaneous Provisions Regarding Article IX.

(a) Without limiting any of the foregoing, the Members will not, and will cause each of their respective affiliates and Controlled Persons not to, (i) take any action the effect of which would prevent or frustrate the carrying out of the procedures contemplated by this Article IX or (ii) at any time (whether before or after any termination of this Agreement) make any assertion, claim or defense that this Article IX or any of its provisions violate or are inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or any laws or public policies.

(b) At the closing of any purchase and sale of an Interest under this Article IX, the purchaser and the seller must deliver such certificates and such assignment documents in customary form as may be reasonably requested in order to consummate the transaction, and the purchaser must deliver the purchase price in immediately available funds to such bank account as has been specified by the seller at least three Business Days prior to the closing (or, if no such Notice has been given, by delivery of a certified or bank check). At such closing, the seller must sell and transfer its Interest to the purchaser free and clear of Liens and will so warrant to the purchaser. The seller will also represent and warrant to the purchaser that the seller has good and marketable title to the Interest being sold and transferred. In addition, the seller and the purchaser will make customary representations and warranties to the other including representations and warranties with respect to organization, valid existence, authorization and non-contravention.

(a) At any time the Company ceases to be the general partner of Inergy Holdings;

(b) The election to dissolve being made by the Voting Members;

(c) At any time there are no Members, provided that the Company will not be dissolved if within 90 days after the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of the last remaining Member, the personal representative of the last remaining Member agrees in writing to continue the Company and to the admission of the personal representative of such Member or its nominee or designee to the Company as a Member, effective as of the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of the last remaining Member;

In connection with such winding up, the Voting Members or surviving Voting Member will have the authority to liquidate and reduce to cash (to the extent necessary or appropriate) the assets of the Company as promptly as is consistent with obtaining Fair Value therefor, to apply and distribute the proceeds of such liquidation and any remaining assets in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.3, and to do any and all acts and things authorized by, and in accordance with, the Act and other applicable laws for the purpose of winding up and liquidating.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

11.1 Title to the Property. Title to the Property will be held in the name of the Company. No Member will individually have any ownership interest or rights in the Property, except indirectly by virtue of such Member’s ownership of an Interest. No Member will have

any right to seek or obtain a partition of the Property, nor will any Member have the right to any specific assets of the Company upon the liquidation of or any Distribution from the Company.

11.2 Nature of Interest in the Company. An Interest is personal property for all purposes.

11.3 Organizational Expenses. Each Member will pay such Member’s own expenses incurred in connection with the creation and formation of the Company and review and negotiation of this Agreement.

11.5 Waiver of Default. No consent or waiver, express or implied, by the Company or a Member with respect to any breach or default by another Member hereunder will be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver with respect to any other breach or default by such Member of the same provision or any other provision of this Agreement.

allocation of Income and Loss to a Member must be approved by that Member; provided, further that any amendment to the provisions of Article IV (or any definitions used in Article IV), other than an amendment to comply with the relevant tax laws as provided in Section 4.5(c), must respect and be consistent with the Percentage Interests of the Members at the time of such amendment, taking into account any adjustments that could have been made at such time under Section 9.10.

(b) This Agreement may be amended by the Voting Members, without any execution of such amendment by any other Members, in order to reflect any event that has occurred consistent with this Agreement, including an adjustment of the Percentage Interests of the Members upon making a capital contribution, upon the admission of an additional Member or issuance of an additional Interest or upon the redemption of an Interest, and to modify this Agreement to comply with the relevant tax laws pursuant to Sections 3.2 or 4.5(c).
