ARTICLE 9: TRANSFER OF MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS

9.01                           Prohibition on Hypothecation by Members. No Member shall mortgage or grant a security interest in his Interest in the Company.

Except as expressly permitted or required by this Agreement, no Member shall Transfer all or any portion of his interest in the Company or any rights therein without the consent of Members holding at more than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate Percentage Interests of all Members. Any Transfer or attempted Transfer by any Member in violation of the preceding sentence shall be null and void and of no force or effect whatever. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Members hereby agree to consent to Transfers of interests in the Company by any Member and agree to consent to the substitution of the transferees of such Transfers as substitute members of the Company provided that (a) such transfers are made to a limited liability company, trust, partnership, or other entity for estate planning purposes, (b) such Member retains the ability, directly or indirectly, to direct the outcome of any determination of such transferee, whether by vote, consent or otherwise, without the vote, consent or approval of any other Person, (c) appropriate amendments are made to this Agreement to reflect such Transfer, and (d) such Transfer and the transferor and transferee of such Transfer comply with the provisions of Sections 9.04 and 9.08.

Each Member hereby further agrees to hold the Company and each Member (and each Member’s successors and assigns) wholly and completely harmless from any cost, liability, or damage (including, without limitation, liabilities for income taxes and costs of enforcing this indemnity) incurred by any of such indemnified Persons as a result of a Transfer or an attempted Transfer in violation of this Agreement.

9.03                           Transfers to Other Members. If, but only if, a Member (hereinafter the “Selling Member”) receives from another Member (hereinafter the “Purchasing Member”) a written offer to purchase all of the Interest of the Selling Member which written offer (hereinafter the “Purchase Offer”) the Selling Member desires to accept, the Selling Member shall give all of the other Members written notice of that fact (hereinafter the “Sale Notice”). The Selling Member shall attach to the Sale Notice a copy of the Purchase Offer. For a period (hereinafter the “Election Period”)

15

ending at 11:59 P.M. (local time at the Company’s principal place of business) on the forty-fifth day following the day on which the Sale Notice is given (hereinafter the “Election Day”), the Members other than the Selling Member may elect, by notice to the Selling Member, to purchase all or any portion of the Interest of the Selling Member, which notice shall state the maximum Percentage Interest that such Member is willing to purchase. Said election and purchase shall be made by giving notice thereof (the “Purchase Notice”) to all Members, which Purchase Notice shall not be valid unless it states the maximum Percentage Interest that such Member (a “Purchase Notice Member”) is willing to purchase. If the aggregate Percentage Interests that Purchase Notice Members are willing to purchase pursuant to valid Purchase Notices equals or exceeds the entire Percentage Interests of the Selling Member, such Purchase Notice Members shall become “Purchasing Members” and shall be obligated to purchase all of the Interest of the Selling Member and the Selling Member shall be obligated to sell its Interest to the Purchasing Members. Each Purchasing Member shall be obligated to purchase that portion of the Selling Members’ Interest that corresponds to the ratio of the Percentage Interests that such Purchasing Member indicated willingness to purchase in his Purchase Notice to the aggregate Percentage Interests that all such Purchasing Members indicated willingness to purchase under all Purchase Notices. In the event that the Members other than the Selling Member do not elect to purchase the entire Interest of the Selling Member, the Selling Member shall be free to sell his Interest to the Purchasing Member for the price, and on the terms specified and described in the Purchase Offer; provided, however, that if the sale contemplated by the Purchase Offer is not consummated within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Election Period, the Selling Member shall again give a Sale Notice with respect to such Purchase Offer and follow the procedures outlined and required by this Section 9.03 as if such procedures had not previously been followed with respect to such Purchase Offer. If the Members other than the Selling Member elect to purchase the entire Interest of the Selling Member, the purchase price and other terms of purchase shall be identical to those set forth in the Purchase Offer; provided, however, that the closing shall occur on or before the date that is thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Election Period, at the Company’s principal place of business. A Person who acquires all or any part of the Interest of a Selling Member (either pursuant to this Section 9.03 or pursuant to a Purchase Offer after the Selling Member has complied with the provisions of this Section 9.03) shall, upon satisfaction of the requirements specified in Sections 9.04 and 9.07, acquire such Interest in the capacity as a Member and shall have all of the rights of a Member with respect to such Interest (or any part thereof) and particularly, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Percentage Interest relating to such Interest shall thereafter be deemed part of the total Percentage Interest owned by the Member for all purposes of this Agreement.

9.04         Conditions to Transfers. Any Transfer not approved under this ARTICLE 9 shall be null and void and of no force or effect whatever.

(a)           Any transferor and transferee shall execute such documents and instruments of conveyance and assumption as may be necessary or appropriate in the opinion of counsel to the Company to effect such Transfer and to confirm the Transferee’s agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and assumption of all monetary obligations of the transferor Member with respect to the interest being transferred and the transferor Member’s agreement to guarantee the prompt payment and performance of such assumed obligations.

16

(b)                                 The Company shall receive, prior to any Transfer, an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company confirming that such Transfer will not terminate the Company for federal income tax purposes.

(c)                                  The transferor and transferee shall furnish the Company with the transferee’s taxpayer identification number, sufficient information to determine the transferee’s initial tax basis in the interest transferred, and any other information reasonably necessary to permit the Company to file all required federal and state tax returns and other legally required information statements or returns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to make any distribution otherwise provided for in this Agreement with respect to any transferred interest until it has received such information.

(d)                                 A Member making a Transfer of all or a portion of his Company interest and the Transferee thereof shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with such Transfer.

9.05                           Admission of Transferee as a Member. A Transferee of an interest in the Company shall be admitted as a Member in the Company only upon the consent of the Members owning more than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate Percentage Interests of all Members. The rights of a Transferee who is not admitted as a Member shall be limited to the right to receive allocations and distributions from the Company with respect to the interest transferred, as provided by this Agreement. The Transferee of such interest shall not be a Member with respect to such interest, and, without limiting the foregoing, shall not have the right to vote as a Member, inspect the Company’s books, act for or bind the Company, or otherwise interfere in its operations.

9.06                           Effect of Transfer on Company. The Members intend that the Transfer of an interest in the Company shall not cause the dissolution of the Company under the Act; however, notwithstanding any such dissolution, the Members shall continue to hold the Company’s assets and operate its business in limited liability company form under this Agreement as if no such dissolution had occurred.

9.07                           Distribution Among Members. If a Transfer of an interest in the Company approved under ARTICLE 9 occurs during any Fiscal Year, Profits, Losses, each item thereof, and all other items attributable to such interest for such Fiscal Year shall be divided and allocated between the transferor and the transferee by taking into account their varying interests during the Fiscal Year in accordance with Code Section 706(d), using any conventions permitted by law and selected by the Members. All distributions on or before the date of a Transfer approved under ARTICLE 9 shall be made to the transferor, and all distributions thereafter shall be made to the transferee. If a Transfer was not approved under ARTICLE 9, all of such items shall be allocated, and all distributions shall be made, to the Person who, according to the books and records of the Company, on the last day of the Fiscal Year during which the Transfer occurs, was the owner of the Company interest. The Members and the Company shall incur no liability for making allocations and distributions in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.07, whether or not any of the Members or the Company has knowledge of any Transfer or purported Transfer of ownership of any interest in the Company.

17

9.08                           Additional Restrictions. Notwithstanding the provisions of this ARTICLE 9, a Member may only sell, assign, or otherwise transfer any Interest in the Company if:

(a)                                  The proposed transfer will not result in the termination of the Company as provided in Section 708(b) of the Code, or otherwise adversely affect the Company’s tax status as a partnership thereunder. The Members are expressly authorized to enforce this provision by notifying the Selling Members that all transfers or assignments will be suspended for a period of up to twelve (12) months whenever interests in the Company representing aggregate interests of thirty five percent (35%) or more in Company capital or revenues shall have been effectively transferred in any twelve (12) month period;

(b)                                 Such Selling Member and his purchaser, transferee or assignee execute such instruments of transfer and assignment with respect to such transactions as are in form and substance satisfactory to the non-selling Members; and

(c)                                  The assignor or transferor delivers to the Company an opinion of counsel, in form acceptable to counsel to the Company; that:

(1)                                  the proposed transfer or assignment of the Interest complies with all federal and state laws and regulations, including the Securities Act of 1933, and

(2)                                  the proposed transfer or assignment will not affect the availability to the Company of the exemption from registration of the interest provided by the Securities Act of 1933 or any Rule or Regulation promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission or the similar exemption from registration under the securities laws of any applicable state.

In the event of a transfer of a Member’s Interest, if it is in the best interest of the Company to do so, the Company may make an election, as provided for in Section 754 of the Code, to adjust the basis of the Company assets.

ARTICLE 10: BUY-SELL

10.01                     Determination of Net Equity of Adverse Member’s Interest. Prior to the end of the sixtieth day following the day upon which a Member (an “Adverse Member”) commits or suffers an Adverse Act, or the sixtieth day after the day any Member other than the Adverse Member receives actual notice of such Adverse Act, any Member may send notice to the Adverse Member of the Adverse Act, and such Adverse Member shall have thirty days following the date of such notice (the “Notice Period”) within which to cure the Adverse Act which is the subject of the notice. At any time prior to the end of the sixtieth day following the end of the Notice Period, any Member, by notice to all other Members (“Member Notice”), may cause the Net Equity of the Adverse Member’s interest in the Company to be determined as of the date of such Member Notice. Such notice shall designate the First Appraiser as required by Section 10.05 hereof and the Adverse Member shall appoint the Second Appraiser within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such notice designating the First Appraiser.

18

10.02                             Election to Purchase Interest of Adverse Member. For a period (the “Election Period”) ending at 11:59 P.M. (local time at the Company’s principal place of business) on the thirtieth day following the day on which notice of the Adverse Member’s Net Equity is given pursuant to Section 10.04 hereof (the “Election Day”), the Members other than the Adverse Member may elect, by notice to the Adverse Member, to purchase all or any portion of the interest of the Adverse Member, which notice shall state the maximum Percentage Interest that such Member is willing to purchase. Said election and purchase shall be made by giving notice thereof (the “Purchase Notice”) to all Members, which Purchase Notice shall not be valid unless it states the maximum Percentage Interest that such Member (a “Purchase Notice Member”) is willing to purchase. If the aggregate Percentage Interests that Purchase Notice Members are willing to purchase pursuant to valid Purchase Notices equals or exceeds the entire Percentage Interests of the Adverse Member, the Purchase Notice Members shall become “Purchasing Members” and shall be obligated to purchase all of the interests of the Adverse Member and the Adverse Member shall be obligated to sell its interests to the Purchasing Members. Each Purchasing Member shall be obligated to purchase that portion of the Selling Members’ interests that corresponds to the ratio of the Percentage Interests that such Purchasing Member indicated willingness to purchase in his Purchase Notice to the aggregate Percentage Interests that all such Purchasing Members indicated willingness to purchase under all Purchase Notices. In the event that the other Members do not elect to purchase the entire interest of the Adverse Member, the Adverse Member shall be under no obligation to sell any portion of its interest to any Member. The cost of determining Net Equity shall be borne one-half by the Adverse Member and one-half by the Company and the amount borne by the Company shall be treated as an expense of the Company for purposes of such determination.

10.03                     Terms of Purchase: Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Adverse Member’s interests shall occur on a date and time mutually agreeable to the Purchasing and the Adverse Members, which shall not be later than 10:00 A.M. (local time at the place of the closing) on the first Business Day occurring on or after the sixtieth day following the last day of the Election Period and at such place as is mutually agreeable to the Purchasing Members and Adverse Member, or upon the failure to agree, at the Company’s principal place of business. At the closing each Purchasing Member shall pay to the Adverse Member, by cash or other immediately available funds, that portion of the Buy-Sell Price of such Adverse Member’s interest that corresponds to a fraction, the numerator of which is the portion of the Aggregate Buy-Sell Price for which such Purchasing Member is liable, and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Buy-Sell Price, and the Adverse Member shall deliver to each Purchasing Member good title, free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances, security interests or options (other than those granted by this Agreement) to the portion of the Adverse Member’s interest thus Purchased. Each Purchasing Member shall be liable only for the Purchasing Member’s individual portion of the Buy-Sell Price to Adverse Member. In the event that any Purchasing Member shall fail to perform his obligation to purchase hereunder, and no other Purchasing Member elects to purchase the portion of the Adverse Member’s interest thus not purchased, such Adverse Member shall not be obligated to sell any portion of his interest to any Purchasing Member.

At the closing the Members shall execute such documents and instruments of conveyance as may be necessary or appropriate to confirm the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the Transfer of the Company interests of the Adverse Member to the Purchasing Members and the assumption by each Purchasing Member of each Adverse Member’s obligation with respect

19

to the portion of the Adverse Member’s interest transferred to such Purchasing Member. The reasonable costs of such Transfer and closing, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and filing fees, shall be divided equally between the Adverse Member and the Purchasing Members.

The price at which the interest of the Adverse Member is purchased and sold under this Section 10.03 (the “Buy-Sell Price” of such interest) is ninety percent (90%) of the Net Equity thereof, determined as of the Election Day, unless the Adverse Member is an Adverse Member solely because of a transfer of an interest in a Member upon the death of any Person owning, directly or indirectly, an interest in a Member, in which event the Buy-Sell Price of such interest shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the Net Equity thereof, determined as of the Election Day. The aggregate price of all interests required to be bought and sold hereunder is the “Aggregate Buy-Sell Price.”

10.04                     Net Equity. The “Net Equity” of a Member’s interest in the Company, as of any day, shall be the amount that would be distributed to such Member in liquidation of the Company pursuant to ARTICLE 11 hereof if (1) all of the Company’s assets were sold for their Gross Appraised Values, (2) the Company paid its accrued, but unpaid, liabilities and established reserves pursuant to Section 11.06 hereof for the payment of reasonably anticipated contingent or unknown liabilities, and (3) the Company distributed the remaining proceeds to the Members in liquidation, all as of such day, provided that in determining such Net Equity, no reserve for contingent or unknown liabilities shall be taken into account if such Member (or his successor in interest) agrees to indemnify the Company and all other Members for that portion of any such reserve as would be treated as having been withheld pursuant to Section 11.06 hereof from the distribution such Member would have received pursuant to Section 11.05 hereof if no such reserve were established.

The Net Equity of a Member’s interest in the Company shall be determined, without audit or certification, from the books and records of the Company by a firm of independent certified public accountants designated by the Manager(s). The Net Equity of a Member’s interest shall be determined within sixty (60) days of the day upon which such accountants are appraised in writing of the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company, and the amount of such Net Equity shall be disclosed to the Company and each of the Members by written notice, prepared and delivered by such accountants, the Manager(s), or any Member, to the Members. The Net Equity determination of such accountants shall be final and binding in the absence of a showing of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

10.05                     Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company. “Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company,” as of any day, shall be equal to the fair market value of all of the assets of the Company as of such day. As used herein, as of any day, the “fair market value” of the assets of the Company means the maximum amount that a single buyer would reasonably be expected to pay for all of the Assets of the Company, on such day, determined on an asset by asset basis, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, in a single cash purchase.

In situations under this Agreement in which it is necessary to determine the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company, the provision requiring such determination provides the manner and time for the appointment of two appraisers (the “First Appraiser” and the “Second Appraiser”). If the Second Appraiser is timely designated, the First and Second Appraisers shall each, within forty-five (45) days of such appointment, give written notice to the Company, the Members, and the

20

firm of independent certified public accountants designated by the Manager(s), of their respective determinations of the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company. If the difference between the separate determinations of the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company of the First Appraiser and the Second Appraiser is less than $500,000.00, the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company shall, for purposes of this Agreement, be equal to the average of the determinations of the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company of the First Appraiser and the Second Appraiser. If the difference between the separate determinations of the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company of the First Appraiser and the Second Appraiser is more than $500,000.00, then at any time after such period, either the Persons who appointed the First Appraiser or the Persons who appointed the Second Appraiser, by written notice to the First Appraiser and Second Appraiser, may demand that they appoint a Third Appraiser (the “Third Appraiser”). If the First Appraiser and Second Appraiser have not appointed the Third Appraiser (who shall have agreed to serve) by the twentieth day after such demand, either the Persons who appointed the First Appraiser or the Persons who appointed the Second Appraiser may request any judge of the Fourth Judicial District Court of the State of Utah to appoint the Third Appraiser. The Third Appraiser shall, within thirty (30) days after his or her appointment, make a determination of the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company and provide written notice of that determination to the Company, the members and the firm of independent certified public accountants designated by the Manager(s). Upon the determination of the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company by the Third Appraiser, the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company shall, for purposes of this Agreement, be equal to the average of the two closest determinations of the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company by the First, Second, and Third Appraisers.

If a Second Appraiser is not timely appointed in the manner provided by this Agreement, and if such Second Appraiser remains unappointed for more than ten (10) days after the Person entitled to make such appointment is given written notice that such Second Appraiser has not been timely appointed as provided in this Agreement, the Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company shall be determined solely by the First Appraiser who shall give notice of such Gross Appraised Value of the Assets of the Company to the Company, the Members, and the firm of independent certified public accountants designated by the Manager(s) within thirty (30) days of the last day on which the Second Appraiser could have been timely designated.

Each appraiser appointed hereunder shall be disinterested and shall be a member of the Appraisal Institute or other appropriate body and qualified to appraise business similar to that of the Company.

11.01                     Waiver of Partition. No Member shall, either directly or indirectly, take any action to require partition, file a ▇▇▇▇ for Company accounting or appraisement of the Company or of any of its assets or properties or cause the sale of any Company property, and notwithstanding any provisions of applicable law to the contrary, each Member (and each of his legal representatives, successors, or assigns) hereby irrevocably waives any and all rights it may have to maintain any action for partition or to compel any sale with respect to his Company interest, or with respect to any assets or properties of the Company, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

21

11.02                     Covenant Not to Withdraw or Dissolve.

(b)                                 The happening of any other event that makes it unlawful or impossible to carry on the business of the Company; or

(c)                                  When the Company is not the successor or survivor entity in any merger or consolidation between the Company and any one (1) or more other entities.

(d)                                 If the Company has not previously been dissolved and terminated, on the date which is thirty (30) years after the date on which the Articles of Organization for the Company were first filed with the Division of Corporations and Commercial Code of the Department of Commerce for the State of Utah.

11.04                     Effect of Bankruptcy, Death or Incompetency of a Member. The bankruptcy, death, dissolution, liquidation, termination or adjudication of incompetency of a Member shall not cause the termination or dissolution of the Company and the business of the Company shall continue. Upon any such occurrence and unless the trustee, receiver, executor, administrator, committee, guardian or conservator of such Member is admitted as a Member of the Company in accordance with the Operating Agreement, the trustee, receiver, executor, administrator, committee, guardian or conservator of such Member shall have the rights specified in Section 9.05 of this Agreement. The transfer by such trustee, receiver, executor, administrator, committee, guardian or conservator of any Company Interest shall be subject to all of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement to which such transfer would have been subject if such transfer had been made by such bankrupt, deceased, dissolved, liquidated, terminated or incompetent Member.

11.05                     Winding Up. Upon the dissolution of the Company, the Company shall continue solely for the purpose of winding up its affairs in an orderly manner, liquidating its assets, and satisfying the claims of its creditors and Members and no Member shall take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, winding up the Company’s business and

22

affairs. To the extent not inconsistent with the foregoing, all covenants and obligations in this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until such time as the Property has been distributed pursuant to this Section 11.05 and the Company has terminated. The Members shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and liquidation of the Company, shall take full account of the Company’s liabilities and Property, shall cause the Property to be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair market value thereof, and shall cause the proceeds therefrom, to the extent sufficient therefore, to be applied and distributed in the following order:

(a)                                  First, to the payment and discharge of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities to creditors, including debts and liabilities to creditors who are Members, and to the establishment of reserves for the payment of the debts and liabilities of the Company in accordance with applicable law;

(b)                                 The balance, if any, to the Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests.

11.06                     Reserve for Liabilities. In the discretion of the Members, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Members pursuant to Section 11.05(b) hereof may be:

(a)                                  distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the Members for the purposes of liquidating Company assets, collecting amounts owed to the Company, and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company or of the Members arising out of or in connection with the Company. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the Members from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the Members, in the same proportions as the amount distributed to such trust by the Company would otherwise have been distributed to the Members pursuant to Section 11.05 hereof; or

(b)                                 withheld to provide a reasonable reserve for Company liabilities (contingent or otherwise) and to reflect the unrealized portion of any installment obligations owed to the Company, provided that such withheld amounts shall be distributed to the Members as soon as practicable.

Instead, the events described in Regulations Section 1.708-l(b)(1)(iv) as in effect at the time of the liquidation described in the previous sentence shall be deemed to have occurred.

11.08                     Return of Capital. Each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company and to the Company property remaining after the payment or discharge of the debts and liabilities of the Company to the Member. If such assets and property are insufficient to return the Capital Contributions of each Member, the Members shall have no recourse against any other Member or against the Manager(s) irrespective of such Member’s capital balance, be it a debit or credit balance. However, any Member with a debit or negative balance in his capital balance, upon the dissolution

23

and winding up of the Company, shall not be entitled to a distribution as to capital or his share of profits.

11.09                     Winding Up of the Company. Upon a dissolution of the Company, the winding up of the affairs of the Company and the distribution of its assets shall be conducted by the Manager(s) who are hereby authorized to do any and all acts and things reasonably necessary to accomplish the foregoing. In this regard, the Manager(s) may delegate their obligation to a receiver or a trustee.

A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly liquidation of the assets of the Company and the discharge of liabilities to creditors so as to enable the Manager(s) to minimize the losses customarily attendant to distressed dispositions of property. In liquidating the assets of the Company, all assets of a saleable value which the Manager(s) determine are not suitable for an equitable distribution shall be sold at public or private sale as the Manager(s) deem advisable. Any Member may purchase such assets at any such sale.

11.10                     Final Accounting. The Company shall furnish each of the Members with a statement prepared by an accountant designated by the Manager(s) which shall set forth the assets and liabilities of the Company as of the date of termination and which shall disclose the sources and applications of Company assets and proceeds thereof during the course of winding up the Company affairs and dissolution.

11.12                     Judicial Dissolution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, a court having jurisdiction of the Company and the Members may, in an action commenced by a Member, decree dissolution of the Company if in such action it is established that the Members are deadlocked in the management of the affairs of the Company and because of such deadlock either irreparable injury to the Company is threatened or being suffered or the business and the affairs of the Company can no longer be conducted to the advantage of the Members generally.

The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in the best interests of this Company or that the Person had reasonable cause to believe that the Person’s conduct was unlawful.

(b)                                 Actions By The Company.

prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. No indemnification shall be made under this Subsection 13.01(b):

(1)                                  In respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which that Person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company in the performance of that Person’s duty to the Company, unless and only to the extent that the court in which that action was brought shall determine upon application that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, that Person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for the expenses which the court shall determine;

(2)                                  Of amounts paid in settling or otherwise disposing of a threatened or pending action, with or without court approval; or

(3)                                  Of expenses incurred in defending a threatened or pending action which is settled or otherwise disposed of without court approval.

(c)                                  Successful Defense By Agent.

(d)                                 Advance of Expenses. Expenses incurred in defending any proceeding shall be advanced by this Company before the final disposition of the proceeding on receipt of an agreement by or on behalf of the agent to repay the amount of the advance unless it shall be determined ultimately that the agent is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this ARTICLE 13.

(e)                                  Other Contractual Rights. Nothing contained in this ARTICLE 13 shall affect any right to indemnification to which persons other than Members, any officer or agents of this Company or any subsidiary hereof may be entitled by contract or otherwise.

26

13.04                     Settlement by Company. The right of any person to be indemnified shall be subject always to the right of the Company, in lieu of such indemnity, to settle any such claim, action, suit or proceeding at the sole expense of the Company by the payment of the amount of such settlement and the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith.

The promissory note executed by each purchasing Remaining Member shall be secured by a pledge of that portion of the Former Member’s Interest purchased by such Remaining Member.

6.7             Closing of Purchase of Former Member’s Interest. The closing for the sale of a Former Member’s Interest pursuant to this Article shall be held at a time and place mutually agreed upon by the parties.
