The Board in its discretion may submit any act or contract for approval or ratification by the Member, and any act or contract that shall be approved or be ratified by the Member shall be as valid and as binding upon the Company and upon the Member as if it shall have been approved in the first instance.

8.7 Action by Written Consent or Telephone Conference. Any action permitted or required by the Act, the DGCL, the Certificate or this Agreement to be taken at a meeting of the Board or any committee designated by the Board may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the action to be taken, is signed by the Managers or committee members, as the case may be, having not fewer than the minimum votes that would be necessary to take the action at a meeting at which all Managers or committee members, as the case may be, entitled to vote on the action were present and voted. Such consent shall have the same force and effect as a unanimous vote at a meeting and may be stated as such in any document or instrument filed

with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and the execution of such consent shall constitute attendance or presence in person at a meeting of the Board or any such committee, as the case may be. Subject to the requirements of the Act, the DGCL, the Certificate or this Agreement for notice of meetings, unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate, the Board, or members of any committee designated by the Board, may participate in and hold a meeting of the Board or any committee of the Board, as the case may be, by means of a telephone conference or similar communications equipment by means of which all Persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in such meeting shall constitute attendance and presence in person at such meeting, except where a Person participates in the meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

8.9 Officers.

(a) The Board may, from time to time, designate and remove one or more persons as officers of the Company and assign titles to particular officers. An officer may be, but no officer need be, a resident of the State of Delaware, a Member or a Manager. Any officers so designated shall have such authority and perform such duties as provided in this Agreement or as the Board may, from time to time, delegate to them. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or unless the Board decides otherwise, if an officer’s title is one commonly used for officers of a business corporation formed under the DGCL, the assignment of such title to an officer of the Company shall constitute the delegation to such person of the authority and duties provided in this Agreement and the authority and duties that would be held by a person with such title in a business corporation formed under the DGCL.

(b) The initial officers of the Company may consist of a President, one or more Vice Presidents, a Secretary and Treasurer and, in addition, such other officers and assistant officers and agents as may be deemed necessary or desirable.

(d) Any officer may resign as such at any time. Such resignation shall be made in writing and shall take effect at the time specified therein, or if no time be specified, at the time of its receipt by the Board. The acceptance of a resignation shall

not be necessary to make it effective, unless expressly so provided in the resignation. Any officer may be removed as such, either with or without cause, by the Board whenever in their judgment the best interests of the Company will be served thereby; provided, however, that such removal shall be without prejudice to the contract rights, if any, of the person so removed. Designation of an officer shall not of itself create contract rights.

(e) The following officers of the Company shall have such powers and duties, except as modified by the Board, as generally pertain to their offices, respectively, as well as such powers and duties as from time to time shall be conferred by the Board and by this Agreement:

The Secretary shall be custodian of the corporate records and of the seal (if any) of the Company and see, if the Company has a seal, that the seal of the Company is affixed to all documents the execution of which on behalf of the Company under its seal is duly authorized; shall have general charge of the minute books, transfer books and certificate of Membership Interest ledgers, and

(f) The salaries or other compensation of the officers, if any, shall be fixed from time to time by the Board. No officer shall be prevented from receiving such salary or other compensation by reason of the fact that such officer is also a Manager of the Company.

(g) The Board may secure the fidelity of any officer of the Company by bond or otherwise, on such terms and with such surety or sureties, conditions, penalties or securities as shall be deemed proper by the Board.

(h) The Board may delegate temporarily the powers and duties of any officer of the Company, in case of his or her absence or for any other reason, to any other officer, and may authorize the delegation by any officer of the Company of any of his or her powers and duties to any agent or employee, subject to the general supervision of such officer.

For all purposes of this Agreement, the phrases “approval” of or by the Board, “consent” of or by the Board, “action” of or by the Board and phrases of like import, or references to actions to be or which may be taken by “the Board,” shall mean written approval by a majority of the Managers of the Board fixed by, or in the manner provided for in, this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS

The certificates shall be consecutively numbered, and as they are issued, a record of such issuance shall be entered in the books of the Company.

9.2 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. The Company may issue a new certificate for Membership Interests in the place of any certificate theretofore issued and alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, but the Board may require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or his, her or its legal representative, to furnish an affidavit as to such loss, theft, or destruction and to give a bond in such form and substance, and with such surety or sureties, with fixed or open penalty, as the board may direct, in order to indemnify the Company and its transfer agents and registrars, if any, against any claim that may be made on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate.

ARTICLE X

INDEMNIFICATION

10.1 Right to Indemnification. Subject to the limitations and conditions provided in this Article X, each Person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,

criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative (hereinafter a “Proceeding”), or any appeal in such a Proceeding or any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such a Proceeding, by reason of the fact that such Person is or was a Member, Manager, officer, employee or agent of the Company or while a Member, Manager, officer, employee or agent of the Company is or was serving at the request of the Company as a Manager, director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent, or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, shall be indemnified, defended and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the Act and the DGCL, as the same exist or may hereinafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment) against claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes and punitive damages), fines, settlements and reasonable costs or expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by such Person in connection with such Proceeding, whether or not such Person is acting in such capacity at the time such liability or expense is paid or incurred, if, in the matter giving rise to such Proceeding, the Person acted, or omitted to act, in good faith and in a manner the Person reasonably believed to be not opposed to the best interest of the Company. The termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order or settlement shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Person did not act, or omit to act, in good faith and in a manner that the Person reasonably believed to be not opposed to the best interest of the Company. The right of indemnification provided herein shall be cumulative of, and in addition to, any and all rights to which any Person may otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of law or equity and shall extend to his, her or its heirs, successors, assigns and personal representatives. It is expressly acknowledged that the indemnification provided in this Article X could involve indemnification for negligence of the Person indemnified or under theories of strict liability.

10.2 Advance Payment. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the right to indemnification conferred in this Article X shall include the right to be paid or reimbursed by the Company the reasonable expenses incurred by a Person of the type entitled to be indemnified under Section 10.1 in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding and without any determination as to the Person’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification; provided, however, that the payment of such expenses incurred by any such Person in advance of the final disposition of a Proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the Company of a written affirmation by such Person of such Person’s good faith belief that such Person has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under this Article X and a written undertaking, by or on behalf of such Person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article X or otherwise.

10.3 Insurance. The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any Person of the type entitled to be indemnified under Section 10.1, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such expense, liability or loss under Section 10.1.

10.4 Member Notification. To the extent required by law, any indemnification of or advance of expenses to a Person in accordance with this Article X shall be reported in writing to

the Member within ten (10) days immediately following the date of the indemnification or advance.

10.5 Savings Clause. If this Article X or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each Person indemnified pursuant to this Article X as to costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article X that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
