(b) For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses, or any other items allocable to any Allocation Period, Profits, Losses, and any such other items shall be determined on a daily, monthly, or other basis, as selected by HoldCo using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Regulations.

(c) The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this ARTICLE IV and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this ARTICLE IV in reporting their shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

Section 4.3 Tax Matters.

(a) Tax Treatment. As of the date hereof, the Company is and intends to be treated, for U. S. federal income tax purposes, as disregarded as separate from HoldCo within the meaning of Regulation section 301. 7701-3(b)(i)(ii).

(b) Tax Year. The taxable year of the Company shall be the Fiscal Year unless another year end is selected by the Board of Managers, or is required under the Code or the Regulations.

(i) HoldCo shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, at the expense of the Company, all Tax Returns of the Company and each Subsidiary thereof. As soon as practicable following the end of each Fiscal Year, HoldCo shall prepare and deliver, or cause to be prepared and delivered, at the expense of the Company, to each Member, in respect of each class of Membership Interests, a completed report (which may be on IRS Schedule K-l or an equivalent) indicating such Member’s share of all items of income or gain, expense, loss or other deduction and tax credit of the Company for such year, as well as the status of such Member’s Capital Account and Subaccount, and its Capital Account and Subaccount balance, as of the end of such year. The Board of Managers shall pay all taxes, levies, assessments, rents and other impositions applicable to the Company.

(d) Tax Elections. Subject to the limitations in the HoldCo LLC Agreement, all elections and decisions for purposes of Federal, state and local taxes shall be made by HoldCo in its discretion.

The Company shall be entitled to withhold, from any Distributions or other amounts payable by the Company (or any Subsidiary thereof) to any Member who is an employee of the Company (or any Subsidiary thereof), or to any Affiliate of any such Member, whether being made under this Agreement or any other agreement, or in respect of any Class A Membership Interest or Class D Membership Interest, as applicable, held, directly or indirectly, by such Member or Affiliate, or otherwise, any Federal, state, local or foreign withholding or other taxes or charges which the Company (or any Subsidiary thereof) is required to withhold with respect to such Member or Affiliate. The Company shall be entitled to rely on an opinion of counsel if any questions as to the amount or requirement of withholding shall arise.

Section 4.4 Distributions.

(a) Except as set forth in clause (b) and (c) below, Distribution shall be made to the Members at the times and in the aggregate amounts determined by the Board of Managers in the following amounts and order of priority:

(i) first, to the Class A Holders until such Class A Holders have received (1) a return of the Initial Value (taking into account all prior Distributions) plus (2) an amount equal to a 10 percent (10%) per annum compound rate of return on the Initial Value outstanding from time to time after reduction for amounts Distributed to the Class A Holders

hereunder (disregarding Distributions of the Tax Amount) (the “Hurdle Rate”), provided that for the purpose of computing whether or not the Initial Value and an amount equal to the Hurdle Rate has been received by the Class A Holders, Distributions to the Class A Holders to the extent of the Tax Amount shall be disregarded; and

(ii) thereafter, to the Class D-l Holders and Class A Holders based on the Total Interest of each such Class D-l Holders and Class A Holders.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not make a Distribution to a Member on account of its interest in the Company if such Distribution would violate the Act or other applicable Law.

(b) The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, (A) perform duly and punctually their respective covenants in the Residual Sharing Agreement, and (B) conduct their business in the Ordinary Course of Business with respect to the Residual Value Assets and the Securitization Residual Value. The Company shall make no distribution to any other Member in respect of the Residual Value Interests or proceeds thereof, the right to such Residual Value Interests being solely attributable to the Residual Value Interest Holders.

(c) The Company shall separately account for all Residual Proceeds received by the Company from the Financing Vehicles after the date hereof. All such Residual Proceeds received shall be deemed to have been applied to reduce (i) first, the accrued but unpaid Notional Subordinated Financing Interest as of the date such Residual Proceeds were received and (ii) second, to the unpaid balance of the Notional Subordinated Financing Principal Amount. On each January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1, commencing October 1, 2007, all accrued but unpaid Notional Subordinated Financing Interest shall be added to the then unpaid Notional Subordinated Financing Principal Amount, be deemed paid thereby and thereafter be deemed a part of the Notional Subordinated Financing Principal Amount. After the aggregate cumulative Residual Proceeds received from the Financing Vehicles equals the Notional Subordinated Financing Principal Amount and any accrued but unpaid Notional Subordinated Financing Interest, the Company shall Distribute ratably to the Residual Value Interest Holders an amount (the “Securitization Residual Value”) equal to eighty percent (80.0%) of all Residual Proceeds from time to time received from the Financing Vehicles in excess of a cumulative amount equal to the Notional Subordinated Financing Amount and any accrued but unpaid Notional Subordinated Financing Interest, promptly following receipt of any such excess Residual Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the Company shall promptly Distribute the Liquidated Value ratably to the Residual Value Interest Holders in accordance with Section 5 of the Residual Sharing Agreement. Such Distribution of the Liquidated Value shall be deemed payment in full of all Securitization Residual Value and redemption of the Residual Value Interests, and no further Residual Proceeds shall be distributed to the Residual Value Interest Holders thereafter. Residual Proceeds that are not included in the Securitization Residual Value shall be distributed in accordance with Section 4.4(a) above. On dissolution of the Company, after the liquidators pay, satisfy or discharge from the Company all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company, the Company shall distribute to the Residual Value Interest Holders ratablv the Residual Value Assets.

ARTICLE VI
INDEMNIFICATION

Section 6. 1 General Indemnity.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by the Act, the Company, to the extent of its assets legally available for that purpose, shall indemnify and hold harmless each Person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in or participates as a witness with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (each a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a Person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a Manager, an officer, or employee or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of another Entity (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all loss, cost, damage, fine, expense (including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and other advisors and any court costs incurred by any Indemnified Person) or liability actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with such Proceeding if such Person acted in good faith and in a manner such Person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such Person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such Person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper. 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 or in a manner such Person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company.

(b) The Company may pay in advance or reimburse reasonable expenses (including advancing reasonable costs of defense) incurred by an Indemnified Person who is or is threatened to be named or made a defendant or a respondent in a Proceeding; provided, however, that as a condition to any such advance or reimbursement, such Indemnified Person shall agree that it shall repay the same to the Company if such Indemnified Person is

finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be entitled to indemnification under this ARTICLE VI.

(c) The Company shall not be required to indemnify a Person in connection with a Proceeding initiated by such Person against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries if the Proceeding was not authorized by the Board of Managers. The ultimate determination of entitlement to indemnification of any Indemnified Person shall be made by the Board of Managers in such manner as the Board of Managers may determine.

(d) Any and all indemnity obligations of the Company with respect to any Indemnified Person shall survive any termination of this Agreement. The indemnification and other rights provided for in this ARTICLE VI shall mure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of any Person entitled to such indemnification.

Section 6. 2 Fiduciary Insurance. Unless otherwise agreed by the Board of Managers, the Company shall maintain, at its expense, insurance (a) to indemnify Company for any obligations which it incurs as a result of the indemnification of Indemnified Persons under the provisions of this ARTICLE VI, and (ii) to indemnify Indemnified Persons in instances in which they may not otherwise be indemnified by the Company under the provisions of this ARTICLE VI.

Section 6. 3 Rights Non-Exclusive. The rights to indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition conferred in this ARTICLE VI shall not be exclusive of any other right which any Person may have or hereafter acquire under any Law, provision of this Agreement, any other agreement, any vote of Members or disinterested Managers or otherwise.
