ARTICLE V.
INTERESTS

5.1 General Attributes of Interests.

(a) The limited liability company interests in the Company shall be divided into two “classes” of Interests: “Class A Interests” and “Class M Interests.” All of the Class M Interests shall be owned by the Managing Member. The Class A Interests shall be owned by Members whose subscriptions who accepted by the Managing Member to own Class A Interests, which may include the Managing Member and/or its Affiliates. Members owning a Class A Interest are referred to herein as “Class A Members” and Members owning a Class M Interest are referred to herein as “Class M Members.” The Class A Interest of a Class A Member shall be equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is such Class A Member’s Capital Contribution to the Company and the denominator of which is the aggregate of all Capital Contributions made to the Company. Interests shall be deemed to be personal property giving only the rights, powers, authority, privileges and preferences provided in this Agreement, notwithstanding the nature of the property held by the Company.

(b) Each Class A Interest and Class M Interest, when issued and fully paid for in accordance with the provisions of the related Subscription Agreement, shall be fully paid and non-assessable, and, subject to Section 4.1(c), neither the Company nor any officer, employee or agent of the Company shall have the right, power or authority to call upon a Member or Assignee to pay any sum of money whatsoever in respect of such Member’s or Assignee’s Interest, whether in the form of a Capital Contribution, a loan or otherwise, other than that which such Member or Assignee has agreed to pay by way of such Subscription Agreement or has otherwise expressly agreed to pay. However, each Person shall be liable to return to the Company amounts previously distributed to it by the Company as follows:

(i) A Person who receives any amount distributed by the Company in violation of Section 18-607(a) of the Act shall be liable to the Company for the return of such amount, together with interest thereon from the date of such distribution at a floating rate determined by the Managing Member, notwithstanding that such Person had no knowledge of such violation at the time of its receipt of such amount. Subject to the provisions of Section 18-502(b) of the Act, the Managing Member may compromise or waive any such liability on such terms and subject to such conditions as the Managing Member may determine. This Section 5.1(b)(i) shall not apply to distributions made pursuant to Article XI.

(ii) A Person who receives any amount distributed by the Company in violation of Section 18-804(a) of the Act shall be liable to the Company for the return of such amount, together with interest thereon from the date of such distribution at a floating rate determined by the Liquidating Trustee, notwithstanding that such Person had no knowledge of such violation at the time of its receipt of such amount. Subject to the provisions of Section 18-502(b) of the Act, the Liquidating Trustee may compromise or waive any such liability on such terms and subject to such conditions as the Liquidating Trustee may determine.

(iii) A Person who receives any amount distributed by the Company in excess of the amount to which such Person was entitled under this Agreement because of mistake or miscalculation shall be liable to the Company for the return of such amount, together with interest thereon from the date of such distribution at a floating rate determined by the Managing Member.

(c) The Managing Member shall, to the extent necessary to settle the liabilities of a Person to the Company under Section 5.1(b), either adjust the Capital Account(s) of the appropriate Person(s) in the Company downward, or cause the Company to request payments from the appropriate Person(s), to reflect amounts due to the Company from such Person(s) (and in either event make corresponding upward pro rata adjustments to the other Capital Accounts in the Company); provided, however, that the Managing Member shall not be required to make any such downward adjustment or request for payment (or corresponding upward adjustment) unless failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on the Company. It shall be conclusively presumed that any failure to make any such downward adjustment or request for payment in respect of a particular Member or Assignee of the Company shall not have a material adverse effect if the amount in question in respect of such Member or Assignee is less than one percent (1%) of the amount of Net Assets of the Company at the time contemplated for such adjustment or request. If the Managing Member requests such a payment from a Person and such Person does not comply with such request, the Managing Member shall determine whether to cause the Company to institute a Proceeding against such Person to recover the amount requested.

(d) If a Person receives a distribution in an amount less than the amount to which such Person was entitled under this Agreement because of mistake or miscalculation, the Managing Member, in its sole and absolute discretion, may: (i) cause the Company to pay the amount of such difference to such Person, together with interest thereon from the date of such distribution at a floating rate determined by the Managing Member; or (ii) adjust the Capital Account of such Person upward to reflect: (A) the amount due such Person plus (B) interest thereon from the date of such distribution at a floating rate determined by the Managing Member (and, in either case, make corresponding downward pro rata adjustments to the other Capital Accounts of the Company).

(e) The number of Interests and Capital Accounts in the Company shall be unlimited.

(f) At the Initial Closing, the Company will establish a Reserve sufficient to pay the Class A Preferred Return and the Management Fee for three (3) months.

5.2 Issuance and Sale of Interests.

(a) The Managing Member is authorized to cause the Company to offer, sell and issue Interests, and to admit Persons as Members of the Company in connection therewith, in such manner and at such time or times as the Managing Member may determine, except that the Managing Member may not cause the Company to offer, sell or issue Interests in a manner inconsistent with this Agreement or the Offering Circular (if any) relating to such Interests in effect at the relevant time, or to any Person who has failed to execute a Subscription Agreement or other document under which such Person has agreed to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as a Member of the Company.

(b) The Managing Member may accept or reject any Subscription Agreement, or accept or reject all or any portion of a Person’s proposed Capital Contribution to the Company under such Person’s Subscription Agreement, in its sole and absolute discretion.

(c) Each Person whose Subscription Agreement has been accepted by the Managing Member shall, to the extent the Managing Member has agreed to accept a Capital Contribution or Capital Contributions under such Subscription Agreement, make such Capital Contribution or Capital Contributions in cash in immediately available funds (unless the Managing Member agrees in its sole and absolute discretion to accept such Capital Contribution or Capital Contributions in the form of property other than cash) at the time(s) and place(s) set forth in such Subscription Agreement or in a Notification given to such Person pursuant to such Subscription Agreement; provided, however, that subject to the provisions of Section 18-502(b) of the Act, the Managing Member may compromise or waive any obligation a Person may have to the Company under such Person’s Subscription Agreement (including an obligation to make a Capital Contribution) or otherwise, on such terms and subject to such conditions as the Managing Member may determine.

(d) If the Managing Member accepts a Person’s Subscription Agreement, it shall (subject to the provisions of Section 5.3) cause the books and records of the Company to reflect the admission of such Person as a Member in accordance with the terms of such Person’s Subscription Agreement.

(e) A Person who has been admitted as a Member of the Company and who wishes to make a Capital Contribution that is not required to be made under such Person’s Subscription Agreement may do so only upon the approval of the Managing Member. The Managing Member may withhold such approval in its sole and absolute discretion.

5.3 Ownership of Interests. The Managing Member shall cause the ownership of Interests to be recorded on separate and distinct books and records of the Company. The Company shall not issue certificates certifying the ownership of Interests therein except as the Managing Member may determine from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion.

5.4 Transfers of Interests.

(a) No Member or Assignee may Transfer an Interest (or any interest therein) unless: (i) the Managing Member, in its sole and absolute discretion, has approved such Transfer; (ii) in the case of a Member or Assignee that is a natural person, such Member or Assignee dies or a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges him to be incompetent to manage his person or his property, in which case such Interest shall be Transferred automatically to the Personal Representative of such Member or Assignee; or (iii) such Transfer arises by operation of the provisions of Section 18-703(a) of the Act.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, by giving Notification to the Managing Member, a Class A Member may request that the Managing Member purchase, or arrange for the purchase, of all or a portion of the Class A Interest owned by such Class A Member.

ARTICLE IX.
EXCULPATION AND INDEMNIFICATION
OF MANAGING MEMBER ASSOCIATES

9.1 Exculpation.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement:

(i) to the extent that, at law or in equity, the Managing Member or Liquidating Trustee, as the case may be, has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Company, any Member or any Assignee arising under or otherwise relating to this Agreement, the Managing Member or Liquidating Trustee, as the case may be, shall not be liable for monetary or other damages to the Company or such Member or Assignee for: (A) losses sustained or liabilities incurred by the Company or such Member or Assignee, except to the extent that it is Judicially Determined that an act or omission of the Managing Member or Liquidating Trustee, as the case may be, was material to the matter giving rise to such losses or liabilities and that such act or omission constituted criminal wrongdoing, willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Managing Member or Liquidating Trustee, as the case may; (B) losses sustained or liabilities incurred by the Company or such Member or Assignee arising from or otherwise relating to any act or omission of any Person selected by the Managing Member or Liquidating Trustee to perform services for or otherwise

transact business with the Company, except to the extent that it is Judicially Determined that the Managing Member’s selection of such Person involved criminal wrongdoing, willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Managing Member or the Liquidating Trustee, as the case may be, and was material to the matter giving rise to such losses or liabilities; or (C) circumstances beyond the Managing Member’s or Liquidating Trustee’s control, including changes in tax or other laws, rules or regulations or the bankruptcy, insolvency or suspension of normal business activities of any broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution that holds assets associated with the Company; and

(ii) to the extent that, at law or in equity, a Managing Member Associate (other than the Managing Member) or Liquidating Trustee Associate (other than the Liquidating Trustee) has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Company or any Member or Assignee arising under or otherwise relating to this Agreement, such Managing Member Associate or Liquidating Trustee Associate shall not be liable for monetary or other damages to the Company or such Member or Assignee for losses sustained or liabilities incurred by the Company or such Member or Assignee, except to the extent that it is Judicially Determined that an act or omission of such Managing Member Associate or Liquidating Trustee Associate, as the case may be, was material to the matter giving rise to such losses or liabilities and that such act or omission constituted criminal wrongdoing, willful misfeasance or bad faith on the part of such Managing Member Associate or Liquidating Trustee Associate, as the case may be.

(b) Each Managing Member Associate and Liquidating Trustee Associate shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the books and records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by any of its members, managers, partners, shareholders, directors, officers or agents (including legal counsel, accountants, auditors, appraisers, investment bankers and other independent experts acting for the Company or any member, manager, partner, shareholder, director, officer or agent of the Company as to matters such Managing Member Associate or Liquidating Trustee Associate, as the case may be, reasonably believes are within such other Person’s professional or expert competence, including information, opinions, reports, or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits or losses of the Company or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which distributions might properly be made.

9.2 Indemnification.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify each Managing Member Associate and each Liquidating Trustee Associate (each, an “Indemnitee”) against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable legal and expert witness fees and related costs and expenses), judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement, and other amounts (including costs and expenses associated with investigation or preparation), actually and reasonably paid or incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any and all Proceedings that arise from or relate, directly or indirectly, to any act or omission (or alleged act or omission) of such Indemnitee in connection with this Agreement or the business or affairs of the Company and in which such Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a defendant, witness, deponent or otherwise (but not as a plaintiff, unless the Managing Member agrees otherwise in its sole and absolute discretion), whether or not the same shall proceed to judgment or be settled or otherwise be brought to a conclusion (collectively, “Losses”), except to the extent that it is Judicially Determined that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be exculpated in respect of such act or omission pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.1.

(b) To the extent it is Judicially Determined that the Company may not lawfully indemnify an Indemnitee for Losses pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.2(a) (other than because such Indemnitee is not entitled to be exculpated in respect of the related act or omission pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.1), the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and such Indemnitee, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of the Company and such Indemnitee, as well as any other equitable considerations.

(c) Reasonable legal fees and other costs and expenses (including costs and expenses associated with any investigation and preparation) incurred by an Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding in which such Indemnitee is a party, witness or deponent shall be paid or reimbursed by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding upon receipt by the Company of (i) a written affirmation by such Indemnitee of such Indemnitee’s good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Company, as stated in Section 9.2(a), has been met, and (ii) a written undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnitee to promptly repay the amount paid or reimbursed if it shall ultimately be Judicially Determined that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company hereunder.

(d) The Managing Member may cause the Company to purchase and maintain insurance, at the cost and expense of the Company, on behalf of any one or more Persons against any liability that may be asserted against or costs or expenses that may be incurred by such Person(s) in connection with the activities of the Company, regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify any such Person(s) against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.

(e) An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 9.2 solely because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies.

(f) Any Indemnitee entitled to indemnification hereunder shall use its reasonable best efforts to minimize the amount of any claim for indemnification hereunder.

(g) The rights of an Indemnitee to indemnification, contribution and reimbursement provided by this Section 9.2 shall be in addition to any other rights to which such Indemnitee may be entitled under any agreement with the Company, as a matter of law or otherwise, and shall continue as to a Managing Member, Managing Member Associate or Liquidating Trustee Associate, as the case may be, who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall also be for the benefit of such Indemnitee’s Personal Representatives, but shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons. This Article IX, however, shall not be construed to entitle any Indemnitee to receive any amount in respect of any Losses of such Indemnitee to the extent that, after giving effect to the receipt of such amount and the receipt by such Indemnitee of any other payments in respect of such Losses, from whatever source or sources, such Indemnitee shall have recovered an aggregate amount in excess of such Losses.

(h) Indemnification Obligations in respect of the Company shall remain in effect for a period of two (2) years after the date of the dissolution of the Company pursuant to Article XI, except that Indemnification Obligations shall continue as to any Loss of which any Indemnitee shall have given Notification to the Company on or prior to the date such Indemnification Obligation would otherwise terminate in accordance with this Section 9.2, until it is Judicially Determined that the Company is not liable for such Loss.

(i) In any suit brought by an Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or the advancement of expenses provided for in this Agreement, the burden of proving that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified or to an advancement of expenses is on the Company (or any Member or Assignee acting derivatively or otherwise on behalf of the Company, as the case may be).

9.3 Limits on Exculpation and Indemnification. The Managing Member acknowledges, on its own behalf, on behalf of the other Managing Member Associates and on behalf of the Liquidating Trustee Associates, that: (a) the federal securities laws (and the rules and regulations thereunder) confer certain rights on each Member and Assignee and impose certain liabilities on the Managing Member Associates and Liquidating Trustee Associates, and that the Managing Member Associates and Liquidating Trustee Associates may not lawfully seek an agreement from any Member or Assignee to waive, modify or limit such Member’s or Assignee’s exercise of such rights or to relieve the Managing Member Associates or Liquidating Trustee Associates of such liabilities; and (b) other applicable laws may confer rights on the Members and Assignees, and/or impose liabilities on the Managing Member Associates or Liquidating Trustee Associates, that may not be waived, modified or limited by an agreement between the Managing Member Associates or Liquidating Trustee Associates, on the one hand, and the Members and Assignees, on the other hand. Accordingly, to the extent a Member or Assignee has rights under the federal securities laws (or the rules and regulations thereunder), nothing in this Article IX should be construed to impose any limitation on a Member’s or Assignee’s exercise of such rights, and to the extent the federal securities laws (or any rule or regulation thereunder) impose liabilities on a Managing Member Associate or Liquidating Trustee Associate, nothing in this Article IX should be construed to impose any limitation on such liability. Similarly, to the extent a Member or Assignee has rights or a Managing Member Associate or Liquidating Trustee Associate has liabilities under other applicable law that may not be waived, modified or limited by agreement between such Managing Member Associate or Liquidating Trustee Associate, on the one hand, and such Member or Assignee, on the other hand, nothing in this Article IX should be construed to impose any limitation on such Member’s or Assignee’s exercise of such rights or to relieve such Managing Member Associate or Liquidating Trustee Associate of such liabilities.

ARTICLE X.
AMENDMENT; CONSENTS FOR OTHER PURPOSES

10.1 Amendments.

(a) Subject to Section 10.1(c), the Managing Member may amend this Agreement at any time and from time to time, whether by changing any one or more of the provisions hereof, deleting any one or more provisions herefrom or adding one or more provisions hereto:

(iii) without obtaining the authorization, approval, agreement, consent or vote of any Member or Assignee, to cause the Company to enter into an agreement with any Member or Assignee thereof to waive or modify the application of any provision of this Agreement with respect to such Member or Assignee, provided that, in the Managing Member’s judgment, no such waiver or modification pursuant to this subparagraph (iii) has or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Members and Assignees thereof generally;

(v) in a manner that materially adversely affects or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Members and Assignees thereof generally, if the Managing Member gives Notification to the Members at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the implementation of such amendment, setting forth, in reasonable detail, all material facts relating to such amendment, and obtains the Consent of a Majority of the Members, measured by capital accounts, to such amendment prior to the implementation thereof; or

(vi) in a manner that materially adversely affects or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on any one or more specific Members or Assignees, if the Managing Member receives consent to such amendment from such affected Member(s) or Assignee(s).

(b) It shall be conclusively presumed that no waiver or permission granted to any one or more Members or Assignees, and no agreement entered into with any one or more Members or Assignees, pursuant to Section 3.6 or 4.2(b), has or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company or any Member or Assignee to whom such a waiver or permission is not granted or with whom such an agreement is not entered into.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision of Section 10.1(a), the Managing Member may not amend this Agreement so as to: (i) require a Member or Assignee to pay any sum of money whatsoever in respect of such Member’s or Assignee’s Interest, whether in the form of a Capital Contribution, a loan or otherwise, other than that which such Member or Assignee has agreed to pay by way of such Member’s Subscription Agreement(s), this Agreement or another agreement executed and delivered by such Member or Assignee; (ii) materially reduce the increases and decreases of Net Assets the Company or the amount of distributions of the Company to which such Member or Assignee is entitled under this Agreement, without the consent of such Member or Assignee; or (iii) modify the limited liability of a Member, without the consent of such Member.

(d) If the Managing Member adopts an amendment to this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(a)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), it shall provide affected Members and Assignees a copy of such amendment, or a reasonably detailed description of such amendment, within ten (10) Business Days after the effective date of such change; provided, however, that an inadvertent failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 10.1(d) with respect to any such amendment shall not affect the substance or effectiveness of such amendment in any respect.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, no amendment may be made to this Agreement without the consent or approval of the Managing Member.

10.2 Amendment of Certificate.

(a) The Managing Member shall cause the Certificate to be amended and/or restated at such time or times, to such extent and in such manner as may be required by the Act.

(b) The Managing Member, in its sole and absolute discretion, may cause the Certificate to be amended and/or restated in accordance with the principles set forth in Section 10.1, and any such amendment and/or restatement shall be effective immediately upon the filing of a certificate of amendment in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or upon such future date as may be stated therein.

(i) the Managing Member declares in writing that the Company shall be dissolved and gives Notification of such declaration to all Members and Assignees;

(ii) the Bankruptcy of the Managing Member; provided, however, that the Bankruptcy of the Managing Member shall not cause the dissolution of the Company if at the time of such Bankruptcy there is at least one other Manager of the Company that has been admitted to the Company as a Manager pursuant to Section 3.5(b) and such other Manager carries on the business of the Company (it being understood and agreed that this Agreement shall be construed to permit the business of the Company to be carried on by such other Manager in the event of the Bankruptcy of the Managing Member); or

(iii) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under Section 18-802 of the Act.

11.3 Powers of Liquidating Trustee. The Liquidating Trustee shall possess full and exclusive right, power and authority to effect the winding up of the business and affairs of the Company and the termination of the existence of the Company as a separate legal entity.

If there are sufficient assets to satisfy the claims of one or more but not all priority groups specified above, the claims of the highest priority groups that may be paid or provided for in full shall be paid or provided for in full, before paying or providing for any claims of a lower priority group. If there are insufficient assets to pay or provide for the claims of a particular priority group specified above, such claims shall be paid or provided for ratably to the claimants in such group to the extent of the assets available to pay such claims.

(c) Amounts in reserves established by the Liquidating Trustee pursuant to Section 18-804 of the Act shall be paid to creditors as set forth in Sections 11.6(a)(i) and (ii). Any amounts remaining in such reserves after such payments shall be paid as provided in Sections 11.6(a)(iii) and (iv).

ARTICLE XII.
MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Construction and Governing Law.

(a) Each Subscription Agreement or Other Agreement executed and delivered by a Member or Assignee, including any representations, warranties, covenants and power of attorney set forth therein, is hereby incorporated into this Agreement as if set forth in full in this Agreement. This Agreement, the Certificate and the Subscription Agreements contain the entire understanding and agreement among the respective parties hereto and thereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, arrangements, inducements or conditions, express or implied, oral or written, between or among any of the parties hereto or thereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

(b) To the extent not preempted by ERISA or the Securities and Commodities Laws, all provisions of this Agreement, the Certificate, the Subscription Agreements and the Other Agreements shall be governed by and construed, administered and enforced in accordance with the internal substantive laws of the State of Delaware without regard to “choice of law,” “conflict of laws” or similar principals of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction. In applying the provisions of this Agreement, it is understood and agreed that, regardless of where this Agreement may be executed by a party hereto, this Agreement is executed and delivered by the parties pursuant to the Act, and that the parties intend that the provisions of this Agreement be given full force and effect pursuant to the principles set forth in Sections 18-1101 (b), (c) and (d) of the Act. Without limiting the scope of the preceding sentence, to the extent this Agreement modifies or nullifies any provision of the Act that would apply in the absence of such modification or nullification, as permitted by the Act (any such provision of the Act being referred to herein as a “default” provision), such modification or nullification shall apply in preference to such “default” provision.

(c) The parties hereto intend that the provisions hereof be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and that no presumption or burden of proof arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of this Agreement.

(d) Wherever possible, each provision in this Agreement shall be construed in such a manner as to be valid, legal and enforceable under applicable law. It is the intention of the Parties that, in case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be found or held invalid, illegal or unenforceable to any extent in any jurisdiction, such provision shall be reformed in such jurisdiction to reflect the intent thereof to the greatest extent permitted by law and, to the extent not so reformed, shall be ineffective only in such jurisdiction and only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating (i) the effect of such provision in any other jurisdiction or (ii) the effect of any other provision in that or any other jurisdiction, unless such a construction would be unreasonable. If the Managing Member shall determine, with the advice of reputable counsel, that any provision of this Agreement is in conflict with (A) the Securities and Commodities Laws or (B) other applicable laws, rules, regulations or orders, whether generally or in a particular application, the conflicting provision or such particular application thereof, as the case may be, shall not be deemed to constitute a part of this Agreement for so long as such conflict exists (provided, however, that such determination shall not affect any of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any lawful application of any provision, or render invalid or improper any action taken or omitted prior to such determination). In construing the meaning or application of the Securities and Commodities Laws, the Managing Member may consider the effect of any applicable order or interpretive release issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, as the case may be, or any applicable “no action” or interpretive position issued by the staff of either such Commission, that modifies or interprets the Securities and Commodities Laws.

(e) If the Managing Member determines that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous or inconsistent with any other provision of this Agreement, it may construe such provision in such manner as it may determine, and such construction shall be conclusive and binding as to the meaning to be given to such provision.

(f) All matters concerning: (i) the valuation of the assets of the Company; (ii) the determination of the amount of the liabilities of the Company; (iii) the allocation of profits, gains and losses among the Members and Assignees, including taxes thereon; and (iv) the accounting practices and procedures of the Company (to the extent not specifically provided for in this Agreement), shall be determined by the Managing Member, whose good faith determinations in such matters shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Members and Assignees.

(g) Each reference in this Agreement to a statute or regulation, or provision thereof, shall be deemed to refer to such statute or regulation, or provision thereof, as amended from time to time, or to any superseding statute or regulation, or provision thereof, as is from time to time in effect, as well as to applicable regulations then in effect thereunder.

(h) In computing the number of days for purposes of this Agreement, all days shall be counted, including Saturdays, Sundays and holidays; provided, however, that if the final day of any time period falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then the final day of such time period shall be deemed to be the next day which is a Business Day.

(i) Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, references in this Agreement to Articles, Sections and Annexes are to Articles, Sections and Annexes of this Agreement. The headings to Articles and Sections are for convenience of reference only and shall not be considered in construing this Agreement.

(j) Where appropriate, each definition and pronoun in this Agreement includes the singular and the plural, and reference to a particular gender includes each other gender. As used in this Agreement, the word “including” shall mean “including without limitation,” and the word “or” is not exclusive.

(k) The express provisions of this Agreement control and supersede any course of performance or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the provisions hereof.

(l) EACH MEMBER AND ASSIGNEE CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS AND THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES, IN EACH CASE SITTING IN COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS IN ANY PROCEEDING.

EACH MEMBER AND ASSIGNEE AGREES NOT TO RAISE ANY OBJECTION TO VENUE IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS AND THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES, IN EACH CASE SITTING IN COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS, IN ANY PROCEEDING.

EACH MEMBER AND ASSIGNEE CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS, SUMMONS OR NOTICE IN ANY PROCEEDING BY WAY OF NOTIFICATION THEREOF TO SUCH MEMBER OR ASSIGNEE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED U.S. MAIL (first class postage prepaid, return receipt requested).

12.2 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (each of which shall be deemed to be an original as against any party whose signature appears thereon). All of such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument, with the same effect as if all parties executing such counterparts had executed the same signature page. Any writing, including a Subscription Agreement or Other Agreement, that has been duly executed by a Person in which such Person has agreed to be bound hereby as a Member shall be considered a counterpart for purposes of the foregoing.

12.3 Binding Effect. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Members (including former Members), Assignees (including former Assignees) and their respective Personal Representatives and shall inure to the benefit of the Members (including former Members), Assignees (including former Assignees), Managing Member Associates (including former Managing Member Associates), Liquidating Trustee Associates (including former Liquidating Trustee Associates), and their respective Personal Representatives (the “Parties”); provided, however, that this Section 12.3 shall not be construed to limit the requirements or effect of any other provision of this Agreement.

12.4 Third Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the relations (a) between or among any two or more Parties; and (b) between or among any one or more Parties, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand. No Person (other than a Party) who owes any debts, liabilities or obligations to or who otherwise has any claim against or dealing with the Company shall obtain any rights under any provision of this Agreement, whether as third party beneficiary or otherwise. No creditor of a Party shall have the right to obtain possession of, or otherwise exercise legal or equitable remedies with respect to, the assets of the Company.

12.5 Remedies for Breach; Effect of Waiver or Consent. A waiver or consent, express or implied, of or to any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of his duties with respect to the Company is not a waiver of or consent to any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other duties of that Person with respect to the Company. Failure on the part of a Person to complain of any act of any other Person or to declare any other Person in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by that Person of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute of limitations period has run.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Limited Liability Company Agreement as of the date first above written.

In the event a Stockholder (the “Selling Stockholder”) receives an offer from a third party to acquire all or a portion of his, her, or its Shares (the “Transfer Shares”), then he, she, or it shall notify the Board of Directors, specifying the Shares to be purchased, the purchase price, the approximate closing date, the form of consideration, and such other terms and conditions of the proposed transaction that have been agreed with the proposed purchaser (the “Sales Notice”). Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Sales Notice the Board of Directors shall notify the Selling Stockholder whether the Company elects to purchase the entire Transfer Shares on the terms set forth in the Sales Notice.

(2) Special Rules. The following rules shall apply for purposes of this section:

(A) If the Board of Directors elects not to cause the Company to purchase the Transfer Shares, or fails to respond to the Sales Notice within the thirty (30) day period described above, the Selling Stockholder may proceed with the sale to the proposed purchaser, subject to section 3.8.1(a).

(B) If the Board of Directors causes the Company to purchase the Transfer Shares, the Company shall purchase the Transfer Shares within thirty (30) days.

(C) If the Board of Directors elects not to cause the Company to purchase the Transfer Shares, or fails to respond to the Sales Notice within the thirty (30) day period described above, and the Selling Stockholder and the purchaser subsequently agree to a reduction of the purchase price, a change in the consideration from cash or readily tradeable securities to deferred payment obligations or nontradeable securities, or any other material change to the terms set forth in the Sales Notice, such agreement between the Selling Stockholder and the purchaser shall be treated as a new offer and shall again be subject to this section.

Page 4

(D) If the Board of Directors elects to cause the Company to purchase the Transfer Shares, such election shall have the same binding effect as the then-current agreement between the Selling Stockholder and the proposed purchaser. Thus, for example, if the Selling Stockholder and the purchaser have entered into a non-binding letter of intent but have not entered into a binding definitive agreement, the election of the Board of Directors shall have the effect of a non-binding letter of intent with the Selling Stockholder. Conversely, if the Selling Stockholder and the purchaser have entered into a binding definitive agreement, the election of the Board of Directors shall have the effect of a binding definitive agreement. If the Selling Stockholder and the Board of Directors are deemed by this subsection to have entered into only a non-binding letter of intent, neither shall be bound to consummate a transaction if they are unable to agree to the terms of a binding agreement.

(e) Exempt Transfers. A transfer of Shares to or for the benefit of any spouse, child or grandchild of the Stockholder, or to a trust for their exclusive benefit shall be exempt from the provisions of section 3.8.1(a) and section 3.8.1(d), provided that (i) the transferee shall, as a condition to such transfer, deliver to the Company a written instrument confirming that such transferee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (ii) such Shares shall not thereafter be transferred further in reliance on this section 3.8.1(e). Any transfer of Shares to the Company shall also be exempt from the provisions of section 3.8.1(a) and section 3.8.1(d).

(f) Application to Certain Entities. In the case of a Stockholder that is a Special Purpose Entity, the restrictions set forth in section 3.8.1(a) and section 3.8.1(d) shall apply to indirect transfers of Shares by transfers of interests in such entity (whether by transfer of an existing interest or the issuance of new interests), as well as to direct transfers of Shares. A “Special Purpose Entity” means (i) an entity formed or availed of principally for the purpose of holding stock in the Company, and (ii) any entity if the purchase price of its Shares represents at least ninety (90%) of its capital.

(g) Exemption by Board. In an Authorizing Resolution, the Board of Directors may waive or modify any or all of the restrictions set forth in this section 3.8.1, except section 3.8.1(b).

3.8.2. Transfer Following Public Offering. Each Stockholder agrees, in connection with the initial underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, (i) not to sell, make short sale of, loan, grant any options for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Shares (other than Shares included in the offering) without the prior written consent of the Company or the underwriters managing such initial underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities for a period of time determined by the Company and the underwriters, (ii) to execute any agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the Company or the managing underwriters at the time of such initial offering, and (iii) to consent to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent against the transfer of the Company’s securities owned by such Stockholder in accordance with the foregoing.

Page 5

3.8.3. Death, Insanity, Insolvency, Withdrawal, Etc. Except as otherwise provided in a written agreement, neither the Company nor any Stockholder shall be required to purchase the Shares owned by a Stockholder for any reason, including but not limited to the death, disability, bankruptcy, or insolvency of such Stockholder. No Stockholder may resign or withdraw as a Stockholder of the Company, and neither the Company nor any other Stockholder shall have the obligation to purchase the Shares of a Stockholder attempting to withdraw.

3.8.4. Incorporation. If the Board determines that the business of the Company should be conducted in a corporation rather than in a limited liability company, whether for tax or other reasons, each Stockholder shall cooperate in transferring the business to a newly-formed corporation and shall execute such agreements as the Board may reasonably determine are necessary or appropriate, consistent with the terms of this Agreement. In such event each Stockholder shall receive stock in the newly-formed corporation equivalent to his, her, or its Stock.

3.8.5. Drag-Along Right. In the event the Board approves a sale or other disposition of all of the Stock of the Company, then, upon notice of the sale or other disposition, each Stockholder shall execute such documents or instruments as may be requested by the Board to effectuate such sale or other disposition and shall otherwise cooperate with the Board. The following rules shall apply to any such sale or other disposition: (i) each Stockholder shall represent that he, she, or it owns his, her, or its Stock free and clear of all liens and other encumbrances; that he, she, or it has the power to enter into the transaction, and that he, she, or it is a U.S. person, but shall not be required to make any other representations or warranties; (ii) each Stockholder shall grant to the Board a power of attorney to act on behalf of such Stockholder in connection with such sale or other disposition; and (iii) each Stockholder shall receive, as consideration for such sale or other disposition, the same amount he, she, or it would have received had all or substantially all of the assets of the Company been sold and the net proceeds distributed in liquidation of the Company.

3.8.6. Waiver of Appraisal Rights. Each Member hereby waives any contractual appraisal rights such Member may otherwise have pursuant to 6 Del. C. §18-210 or otherwise, as well as any “dissenter’s rights.”

3.8.7. Termination. The provisions of this section 3.8 shall terminate upon the earlier of the following events:

(a) The closing of the sale of shares of Common Stock in an underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 (provided that the restrictions set forth in section 3.8.2 shall remain in effect); or

(b) The sale of all or substantially all of the capital stock, assets or business of the Company, by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise (other than a merger or consolidation in which all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were beneficial owners of the Common Stock immediately prior to such transaction beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the resulting, surviving or acquiring corporation in such transaction).

Page 6

3.8.8. Other Restrictions. In an Authorizing Resolution or a contract between the Company and one or more Stockholders approved by the Board of Directors, any or all of the restrictions set forth in section 3.8 may be supplemented, replaced, modified, or waived.

3.9. Restricted Stock. The Company may issue Shares of any class subject to vesting schedules or other restrictions.

4. Consideration. The Board of Directors may issue stock to such persons, and for such consideration, as it shall determine in its sole discretion, without regard to the par value of the Shares being issued.

5.1. Management by Board of Directors.

5.1.1. In General. The business and affairs of the Company shall be directed, managed, and controlled by managers, who shall be referred to individually as “Directors” and collectively as the “Board of Directors” or the “Board.” Directors may, but need not be, Stockholders. Except for situations in which the approval of the Stockholders is expressly required by agreement or by provisions of the Delaware Limited Liability the Company Act (the “Act”) that may not be waived, the Board of Directors shall have full and complete authority, power, and discretion to manage and control the business, affairs and properties of the Company, to make all decisions regarding those matters and to perform any and all other acts or activities customary or incident to the management of the Company’s business.

The resignation of any member of the Board of Directors shall take effect upon receipt of notice thereof or at such later time as shall be specified in such notice; and, unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. The resignation of a member of the Board of Directors who is also Stockholder shall not affect such person’s rights as a Stockholder and shall not constitute a withdrawal of such person as a Stockholder. In the event that a member of the Board of Directors who is also a Stockholder withdraws from the Company, he shall be treated as having resigned as a member of the Board of Directors on the date of such withdrawal.

5.1.7. Delegation to Committees. The Board of Directors may, from time to time, delegate to one or more Directors, or to a committee of Directors, such authority and duties as the Directors shall determine.

5.2. Restrictions on Stockholders. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, Stockholders who are not also members of the Board of Directors shall not be entitled to participate in the management or control of the Company, except as officers if so appointed, nor shall any such Stockholder hold himself out as having such authority or as being a member of the Board of Directors. Unless authorized to do so by the Board of Directors, no attorney-in-fact, employee or other agent of the Company shall have any power or authority to bind the Company in any way, to pledge its credit or to render it liable for any purpose.

Any such notice may be waived by a writing signed by the person or persons entitled to such notice either before or after the action with respect to which notice is waived. Any person attending a meeting without protesting, prior to its conclusion, a lack of proper notice shall be deemed to have waived notice of such meeting.

5.3.4. Voting List. The Board of Directors shall make, at least two (2) days before each meeting of Stockholders, a complete list of the Stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical order, with the address of and the Shares held by each, which list, for a period of ten (10) days prior to such meeting, shall be kept on file at the registered office or principal place of business of the Company and shall be subject to inspection by any Stockholder at any time during usual business hours. Such list shall also be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any Stockholder during the whole time of the meeting. Failure to comply with the requirements of this section shall not affect the validity of any action taken at the meeting.

5.3.5. Proxies. A Stockholder may vote either in person or by proxy executed in writing by the Stockholder. A telegram, telex, cablegram or similar transmission by the Stockholder, or a photographic, facsimile, or similar reproduction of a writing executed by the Stockholder shall be treated as an execution in writing for purposes of this section.

All proxies shall be received and taken charge of and all ballots shall be received and canvassed by the Directors, who shall decide all questions relating to the qualification of voters, the validity of the proxies, and the acceptance or rejection of votes, unless an inspector or inspectors shall have been appointed by the chairman of the meeting, in which event such inspector or inspectors shall decide all such questions. No proxy shall be valid after eleven (11) months from the date of its execution unless otherwise provided in the proxy.

A proxy may designate only one (1) person to act on behalf of the Stockholder.

Page 10

5.3.6. Agreements as to Voting. An agreement between two (2) or more Stockholders, if in writing and signed by the parties thereto, may provide that in exercising any voting rights, the Shares held by them shall be voted as therein provided, or by only one of them at his sole discretion, or as they may agree, or as determined in accordance with a procedure agreed upon by them. Such agreements shall be specifically enforceable.

5.3.7. Control Over Meetings. All meetings of the Stockholders shall be presided over by the chairman of the meeting, who shall be a Director (or representative thereof) designated by the Directors. The chairman of any meeting of Stockholders shall determine the order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulation of the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as seem to him in order.

5.3.8. Action By Written Consent.

(a) In General. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of Stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice, and without a vote, if prior or subsequent to such action, written consents are signed by Stockholders owning the minimum number of Shares that would be necessary to take such action at a meeting at which the holders of all Shares entitled to vote on the action were present and voted. Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each Stockholder who signs the consent. No written consent shall be effective unless the minimum number of consents necessary are delivered to the Company within sixty (60) days following the earliest of such consents. A PDF or similar reproduction of a writing signed by a Stockholder shall be regarded as signed by the Stockholder for purposes of this section. Prompt notice of any action taken pursuant to this section shall be given to those Stockholders who did not consent in writing to the action, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not invalidate such action.

(b) Record Date. The record date for determining the identity of the Stockholders entitled to consent to action in writing without a meeting shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Company.

The appointment of an officer shall not in itself create contract rights.

Page 11

6. Exculpation and Indemnification

6.1. Exculpation.

6.1.1. Covered Persons. As used in this Agreement, the term “Covered Person” means each Stockholder, Director, and officer of the Company and any entity in which the Company owns a controlling interest (a “Subsidiary”).

6.1.2. Standard of Care. No Covered Person shall be liable to the Company or any Stockholder for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Covered Person in good-faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement, so long as such action or omission does not constitute fraud or willful misconduct by such Covered Person or a violation of section 5.2.

6.1.3. Good Faith Reliance. A Covered Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports, or statements (including financial statements and information) of the following persons: (i) another Covered Person; (ii) any attorney, independent accountant, appraiser, or other expert or professional employed or engaged by or on behalf of the Company; or (iii) any other person selected in good faith by or on behalf of the Company, in each case as to matters that such relying Covered Person reasonably believes to be within such other person’s professional or expert competence. The preceding sentence shall in no way limit any Person’s right to rely on information to the extent provided in the Act.

6.2. Liabilities and Duties of Covered Persons.

6.2.1. Limitation of Liability. This Agreement is not intended to, and do not, create or impose any fiduciary duty on any Covered Person. Furthermore, each of the Stockholders and the Company hereby waives any and all fiduciary duties that, absent such waiver, may be implied by applicable law, and in doing so, acknowledges and agrees that the duties and obligation of each Covered Person to each other and to the Company are only as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of a Covered Person otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Stockholders to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Covered Person. Without limiting the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, this provision does not apply to claims arising under the U.S. federal securities laws.

6.2.2. Duties. Whenever in this Agreement a Covered Person is permitted or required to make a decision, the Covered Person shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as such Covered Person desires, including its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Company or any other person. Whenever in this Agreement a Covered Person is permitted or required to make a decision in such Covered Person’s “good faith,” the Covered Person shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Agreement or any other applicable law.

Page 12

6.3. Indemnification.

6.3.1. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by the Act, as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, substituted or replaced (but, in the case of any such amendment, substitution or replacement only to the extent that such amendment, substitution or replacement permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than the Act permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment, substitution or replacement), the Company shall indemnify, hold harmless, defend, pay and reimburse any Covered Person against any and all losses, claims, damages, judgments, fines or liabilities, including reasonable legal fees or other expenses incurred in investigating or defending against such losses, claims, damages, judgments, fines or liabilities, and any amounts expended in settlement of any claims (collectively, “Losses”) to which such Covered Person may become subject by reason of any act or omission or alleged act or omission performed or omitted to be performed by such Covered Person on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the business of the Company; provided, that (i) such Covered Person acted in good faith and in a manner believed by such Covered Person to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, and (ii) such Covered Person’s conduct did not constitute fraud or willful misconduct, in either case as determined by a final, nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. In connection with the foregoing, the termination of any action, suit or 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 Covered Person did not act in good faith or, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such Covered Person’s conduct was unlawful, or that the Covered Person’s conduct constituted fraud or willful misconduct.

6.3.2. Reimbursement. The Company shall promptly reimburse (and/or advance to the extent reasonably required) each Covered Person for reasonable legal or other expenses (as incurred) of such Covered Person in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any claim, lawsuit or other proceeding relating to any Losses for which such Covered Person may be indemnified pursuant to this section 6.3; provided, that if it is finally judicially determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to the indemnification provided by this section 6.3, then such Covered Person shall promptly reimburse the Company for any reimbursed or advanced expenses.

6.3.3. Entitlement to Indemnity. The indemnification provided by this section 6.3 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to indemnification to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any agreement or otherwise. The provisions of this section 6.3 shall continue to afford protection to each Covered Person regardless of whether such Covered Person remains in the position or capacity pursuant to which such Covered Person became entitled to indemnification under this section 6.3 and shall inure to the benefit of the executors, administrators, and legal representative of such Covered Person.

Page 13

6.3.4. Insurance. To the extent available on commercially reasonable terms, the Company may purchase, at its expense, insurance to cover Losses covered by the foregoing indemnification provisions and to otherwise cover Losses for any breach or alleged breach by any Covered Person of such Covered Person’s duties in such amount and with such deductibles as the Board may determine; provided, that the failure to obtain such insurance shall not affect the right to indemnification of any Covered Person under the indemnification provisions contained herein, including the right to be reimbursed or advanced expenses or otherwise indemnified for Losses hereunder. If any Covered Person recovers any amounts in respect of any Losses from any insurance coverage, then such Covered Person shall, to the extent that such recovery is duplicative, reimburse the Company for any amounts previously paid to such Covered Person by the Company in respect of such Losses.

6.3.5. Funding of Indemnification Obligation. Any indemnification by the Company pursuant to this section 6.3 shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company assets only, and no Stockholder (unless such Stockholder otherwise agrees in writing) shall have personal liability on account thereof or shall be required to make additional capital contributions to help satisfy such indemnification obligation.

6.3.6. Savings Clause. If this section 6.3 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 Covered Person pursuant to this section 6.3 to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this section 6.3 that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law.

6.3.7. Amendment. The provisions of this section shall be a contract between the Company, on the one hand, and each Covered Person who served in such capacity at any time while this section is in effect, on the other hand, pursuant to which the Company and each such Covered Person intend to be legally bound. No amendment, modification or repeal of this section that adversely affects the rights of a Covered Person to indemnification for Losses incurred or relating to a state of facts existing prior to such amendment, modification or repeal shall apply in such a way as to eliminate or reduce such Covered Person’s entitlement to indemnification for such Losses without the Covered Person’s prior written consent.

6.4. Survival. The provisions of this section 6 shall survive the dissolution, liquidation, winding up, and termination of the Company.

Page 14

7. Tax Matters.

7.1. In General. The Company shall seek to allocate its income, gains, losses, deductions, and expenses (“Tax Items”) in a manner so that (i) such allocations have “substantial economic effect” as defined in section 704(b) of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder (the “Regulations”) and otherwise comply with applicable tax laws; (ii) each Stockholder is allocated income equal to the sum of (A) the losses he, she, or it is allocated, and (B) the cash profits he, she, or it receives; and (iii) after taking into account the allocations for each year as well as such factors as the value of the Company’s assets, the allocations likely to be made to each Stockholder in the future, and the distributions each Stockholder is likely to receive, the balance of each Stockholder’s capital account at the time of the liquidation of the Company will be equal to the amount such Stockholder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Agreement. That is, the allocation of the Company’s Tax Items, should, to the extent reasonably possible, following the actual and anticipated distributions of cash, in the discretion of the Board of Directors. In making allocations, the Board of Directors shall use reasonable efforts to comply with applicable tax laws, including without limitation, through incorporation of a “qualified income offset,” a “gross income allocation” and a “minimum gain chargeback,” as such terms or concepts are specified in the Regulations. The Board shall be conclusively deemed to have used reasonable effort if it has sought and obtained advice from counsel.

7.2. Capital Accounts. A capital account shall be established and maintained for each Stockholder in accordance with the Regulations.

7.3. Losses and Income Attributable to Stockholder Loans. In the event the Company recognizes a loss attributable to loans from Stockholders, then such loss, as well as any income recognized by the Company as a result of the repayment of such loan (including debt forgiveness income), shall be allocated to the Stockholder making such loan.

7.4. Allocations Relating to Taxable Issuance of Shares. Any income, gain, loss, or deduction realized as a direct or indirect result of the issuance of an interest in the Company by the Company to a Stockholder (the “Issuance Items”) shall be allocated among Stockholders so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such Issuance Items, together with all other allocations under this Agreement to each Stockholder, shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Stockholder if the Issuance Items had not been realized.

7.5. Capital Account Adjustment Allocations. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to make such special allocations of the Company income, gain, loss, or deduction in whatever manner the Board of Directors determines to be appropriate so that, after such special allocations are made, and taking into account such factors as the value of the Company’s assets, the allocations likely to be made to each Stockholder in the future, and the distributions each Stockholder is likely to receive, the balance of each Stockholder’s capital account balance will be equal to the amount to be distributed to such Stockholder in accordance with the special rights and preferences, if any, applicable to his Shares at the time of liquidation or redemption of his Shares.

Page 15

7.6. Section 754 Election. The Company may, but shall not be required to, make an election under section 754 of the Code at the request of any Stockholder. The Company may condition its consent to make such an election on the agreement of the requesting Stockholder to pay directly or reimburse the Company for any costs incurred in connection with such election or the calculations required as a result of such an election. The tax matters partner shall be responsible for determining the adjustments required or permitted as a result of such election, provided that, in the case of any adjustment required or permitted under section 743(b) of the Code, the transferee Stockholder(s) shall be solely responsible for determining the adjustments required thereunder unless such Stockholder(s) provide the tax matters person with all the information necessary for the tax matters person to determine the adjustments.

7.7. Pre-Distribution Adjustment. In the event property of the Company is distributed to one or more Stockholders in kind, there shall be allocated to the Stockholders the amount of income, gain or loss which the Company would have recognized had such property been sold for its fair market value on the date of the distribution, to the extent such income, gain or loss has not previously been allocated among the Stockholders. The allocation described in this section 7.7 is referred to as the “Pre-Distribution Adjustment.”

7.8. Allocations with Respect to Transferor’s Interest. Except where the Code otherwise requires (for example, in the case of certain “allocable cash basis items” as defined in Code section 706(d)(2)(B)), upon the permitted transfer of a Stockholder’s interest in the Company, each item of income, loss, and deduction allocable to the transferred interest shall be pro rated between the transferor and the transferee on the basis of the number of days in the taxable year of the Company preceding (and including) and succeeding the date as of which the assignment is effective. Gain or loss from the sale or other taxable disposition of a capital asset shall be allocated to the persons who were Stockholders at the time such gain or loss was recognized by the Company, unless otherwise provided herein.

7.9. Tax Disputes.

7.9.1. Designation. The Board of Directors shall designate a person, who may but need not be a Director or Stockholder, as the “company representative” (the “Company Representative”) as provided in Code section 6223(a). Any expenses incurred by a person in carrying out his, her, or its responsibilities and duties as Company Representative shall be an expense of the Company.

The Company Representative is authorized to represent the Company in connection with all examinations of the affairs of the Company by any taxing authority, including any resulting administrative and judicial proceedings, and to expend funds of the Company for professional services and costs associated therewith.

Each Stockholder agrees that any action taken by the Company Representative in connection with audits of the Company shall be binding upon such Stockholder and that such Stockholder shall not independently act with respect to tax audits or tax litigation affecting the Company. The Company Representative shall have sole discretion to determine whether the Company (either on its own behalf or on behalf of the Stockholders) will contest or continue to contest any tax deficiencies assessed or proposed to be assessed by any taxing authority.

7.9.3. Elections and Procedures. In the event of an audit of the Company that is subject to the Company audit procedures enacted under section 1101 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 (the “BBA” and the “BBA Procedures”), the Company Representative, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to make any and all elections and to take any actions that are available to be made or taken by the Company Representative or the Company under the BBA Procedures (including any election under Code section 6226 as amended by the BBA). If an election under Code section 6226(a) (as amended by the BBA) is made, the Company shall furnish to each Stockholder for the year under audit a statement of the Stockholder’s share of any adjustment set forth in the notice of final Company adjustment, and each Partner shall take such adjustment into account as required under Code section 6226(b) (as amended by the BBA).

7.9.4. Tax Returns and Tax Deficiencies. Each Stockholder agrees that such Stockholder shall not treat any Company item inconsistently on such Stockholder’s federal, state, foreign or other income tax return with the treatment of the item on the Company’s return. Any deficiency for taxes imposed on any Stockholder (including penalties, additions to tax or interest imposed with respect to such taxes and any tax deficiency imposed pursuant to Code section 6226 as amended by the BBA) will be paid by such Stockholder and if required to be paid (and actually paid) by the Company, will be recoverable from such Stockholder.

The financial statements of the Company need not be audited by an independent certified public accounting firm unless the Board of Directors so elects or the law so requires.

8.4. Right of Inspection.

8.4.1. In General. If a Stockholder wishes additional information or to inspect the books and records of the Company for a bona fide purpose, the following procedure shall be followed: (i) such Stockholder shall notify the Board of Directors, setting forth in reasonable detail the information requested and the reason for the request; (ii) within sixty (60) days after such a request, the Board of Directors shall respond to the request by either providing the information requested or scheduling a date (not more than 90 days after the initial request) for the Stockholder to inspect the Company’s records; (iii) any inspection of the Company’s records shall be at the sole cost and expense of the requesting Stockholder; and (iv) the requesting Stockholder shall reimburse the Company for any reasonable costs incurred by the Company in responding to the Stockholder’s request and making information available to the Stockholder.

8.4.2. Bona Fide Purpose. The Board of Directors shall not be required to respond to a request for information or to inspect the books and records of the Company if the Board of Directors believes such request is made to harass the Company or the Board of Directors, to seek confidential information about the Company, or for any other purpose other than a bona fide purpose.

8.4.3. Representative. An inspection of the Company’s books and records may be conducted by an authorized representative of a Stockholder, provided such authorized representative is an attorney or a licensed certified public accountant and is reasonably satisfactory to the Board of Directors.

8.4.4. Restrictions. The following restrictions shall apply to any request for information or to inspect the books and records of the Company:

(a) No Stockholder shall have a right to a list of the Stockholders or any information regarding the Stockholders.

(c) No Stockholder shall have the right to any trade secrets of the Company or any other information the Board of Directors deems highly sensitive and confidential.

Page 18

(d) No Stockholder may review the books and records of the Company more than once during any twelve (12) month period.

(h) The Board of Directors may impose additional reasonable restrictions for the purpose of protecting the Company and the Stockholders.

9. Liquidation and Dissolution.

9.1. Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved at the discretion of the Board of Directors, or upon the vote of all of the Stockholders. No other event shall cause the dissolution of the Company. Without limiting the preceding sentence, all of the Stockholders agree that the Company shall not be dissolved upon the termination of any Stockholder’s interest in the Company.

9.2. Liquidation. If the Company is dissolved, the Company’s assets shall be liquidated and no further business shall be conducted by the Company except for such action as shall be necessary to wind-up its affairs and distribute its assets to the Stockholders. The assets of the Company shall be liquidated as promptly as possible so as to permit distributions in cash, but such liquidation shall be made in an orderly manner so as to avoid undue losses attendant upon liquidation. In the event that in the Board of Directors’ opinion complete liquidation of the assets of the Company within a reasonable period of time proves impractical, assets of the Company other than cash may be distributed to the Stockholders in kind but only after all cash and cash-equivalents have first been distributed.

10. Contributions. No Stockholder shall be required to contribute money or property to the Company except upon the purchase of Shares from the Company. Without limiting the preceding sentence, no Stockholder shall be required to restore any deficit in his capital account following the liquidation of the Company.

3.3. Calculations. All calculations required by this section 3 shall be made by an accounting firm selected by the Company, and, in the absence of fraud, its calculation shall be final and not subject to dispute.

4. Price. Initially, the Series A Preferred Stock shall be offered to the public for Ten Dollars ($10.00) for each Share. The price may be increased or decreased by the Company in its sole discretion.

Without limiting the preceding sentence (i) no further distributions shall be made with respect to such Litigation Support Shares, and (ii) ownership of such Litigation Support Shares shall no longer be treated as Stockholders of the Company.

7. Priority. The Litigation Support Shares shall have priority over the Common Stock and all series of Preferred Stock created before the date of this Authorizing Resolution. However, the Company may create one or more series of Preferred Stock following the date of this Authorizing Resolution with higher priority than the Litigation Support Shares.

8. Mandatory Redemption.

8.1. Based on ERISA Considerations. The Company may, at any time, cause the Company to purchase all or any number of the Litigation Support Shares owned by a holder of Litigation Support Shares whose assets are governed by Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code, or any similar Federal, State, or local law, if the Company determines that all or any portion of the assets of the Company would, in the absence of such purchase, more likely than not be treated as “plan assets” or otherwise become subject to such laws.

8.2. Based on Other Bona Fide Business Reasons. The Company may, at any time, cause the Company to purchase all of the Litigation Support Shares owned by a holder of Litigation Support Shares if the Company determines that (i) such holder made a material misrepresentation to the Company; (ii) legal or regulatory proceedings are commenced or threatened against the Company or any of its members arising from or relating to such holder’s interest in the Company; (iii) the Company believes that such holder’s ownership has caused or will cause the Company to violate any law or regulation; (iv) such holder has violated any of his, her, or its obligations to the Company or to the other Stockholders; or (ii) such holder is engaged in, or has engaged in conduct (including but not limited to criminal conduct) that (A) brings the Company, or threatens to bring the Company, into disrepute, or (B) is adverse and fundamentally unfair to the interests of the Company or the other Stockholders.

9.2.2. Special Rule for Affiliates.
