No Holder or Member (in its capacity as such) has the authority or power to act for or on behalf of the Company, to do any act that would be binding on the Company or to make any expenditures on behalf of the Company, unless (i) such specific authority has been expressly granted to and not revoked from such Person by the Manager or (ii) such specific authority has been expressly granted to such Person pursuant to this Agreement, and the Holders hereby consent to the exercise by the Manager of the powers conferred on them by law and this Agreement.

6.2                               Member Meetings.

(a)                                 Quorum; Voting. A quorum shall be present at a meeting of Members if the Members holding a Required Interest are represented at the meeting in person or by proxy. With respect to any matter, other than a matter for which the affirmative vote of a specified portion of all Members entitled to vote is required by the Act, the affirmative vote of the Members holding the Required Interest at a meeting of Members at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Members.

(b)                                 Place; Attendance. All meetings of the Members shall be held at the principal place of business of the Company or at such other place within or outside the State of Delaware as shall be specified or fixed in the notices or waivers of notice thereof; provided that any or all Members may participate in any such meeting by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment pursuant to Section 6.5.

(c)                                  Power to Adjourn. Notwithstanding the other provisions of the Certificate or this Agreement, the chairman of the meeting or the Members holding the Required Interest shall have the power to adjourn such meeting from time to time, without any notice other than announcement at the meeting of the time and place of the holding of the adjourned meeting.

Upon the resumption of such adjourned meeting, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting

12

as originally called.

(d)                                 Meetings. Meetings of the Members for any proper purpose or purposes may be called at any time by the Manager or by Members holding the Required Interest. If not otherwise stated in or fixed in accordance with the remaining provisions hereof, the record date for determining Members entitled to call a special meeting is the date any Member first signs the notice of that meeting. Only business within the purpose or-purposes described in the notice (or waiver thereof) required by this Agreement may be conducted at a meeting of the Members.

(e)                                  Notice. Written or printed notice stating the place, day and hour of the meeting and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be delivered not less than ten nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting, either personally or by mail, by or at the direction of the Manager, to each Member entitled to vote at such meeting. If mailed, any such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the United States mail, addressed to the Member at its address provided for in Section 12.5, with postage thereon prepaid.

(f)                                   Fixing of Record Date. The date on which notice of a meeting of Members is mailed or the date on which the resolution of the Manager declaring a Distribution is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for the determination of the Members entitled to notice of or to vote at such meeting (including any adjournment thereof) or the Members entitled to receive such Distribution.

6.3                               Proxies. A Member may vote either in person or by proxy executed in writing by the Member. A telegram, telex, cablegram or similar transmission by the Member, or a photographic, photostatic, facsimile or similar reproduction of a writing executed by the Member shall be treated as an execution in writing for purposes of this Section. Proxies for use at any meeting of Members or in connection with the taking of any action by written consent shall be filed with the Manager, before or at the time of the meeting or execution of the written consent as the case may be. All proxies shall be received and taken charge of and all ballots shall be received and canvassed by the Manager, who shall decide all questions concerning 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 months from the date of its execution unless otherwise provided in the proxy. A proxy shall be revocable unless the proxy form conspicuously states that the proxy is irrevocable and the proxy is coupled with an interest. Should a proxy designate two or more Persons to act as proxies, unless that instrument shall provide to the contrary, a majority of such Persons present at any meeting at which their powers thereunder are to be exercised shall have and may exercise all the powers of voting or giving consents thereby conferred, or if only one be present, then such powers may be exercised by that one; or, if an even number attend and a majority do not agree on any particular issue, the Company shall not be required to recognize such proxy with respect to such issue if such proxy does not specify how the Units that are the subject of such proxy are to be voted with respect to such issue.

Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each Member who signs the consent.

(d)                                 Telephone Conference. Members may participate in and hold a meeting by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all Persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in such meeting shall constitute attendance and presence in person at such meeting, except where a Person participates in the meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

ARTICLE VII

LIMITED LIABILITY, EXCULPATION, AND INDEMNIFICATION

7.1                               Limited Liability of Members.

(a)                                 Limitation of Liability. Except as otherwise required by applicable law

14

and as explicitly set forth in this Agreement, the debts, liabilities, commitments and other obligations of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, and no Member or Holder shall have any personal liability whatsoever in its capacity as a Member or Holder, whether to the Company, to any of the other Members or Holders, to the creditors of the Company or to any other Person, for the debts, liabilities, commitments or any other obligations of the Company or for any Losses of the Company. Accordingly, a Member or Holder shall be liable only to make its Capital Contributions to the Company required pursuant to the terms hereof and the other payments expressly provided for herein.

(b)                                 Observance of Formalities. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the failure of the Company, or the Manager or any Holder, to observe any formalities or procedural or other requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or management of the Company’s business and affairs under this Agreement or the Act shall not be grounds for imposing personal liability on any of the Members or Holders.

(c)                                  Return of Distributions. In accordance with the Act and the laws of the State of Delaware, a member of a limited liability company may, under certain circumstances, be required to return amounts previously distributed to such member. It is the intent of the Holders that no Distribution to any Holder pursuant to Article IV hereof shall be deemed a return of money or other property paid or distributed in violation of the Act. The payment of any such Distribution of money or property to a Holder shall be deemed to be a compromise within the meaning of the Act, and the Holder receiving any such money or property shall not be required to return to any Person any such money or property. However, if any court of competent jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, any Holder is obligated to make any such payment, such obligation shall be the obligation solely of such Holder and not of any other Holder or the Manager. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder will be required to return to the Company any Distribution to the extent made to it in clear and manifest accounting, clerical, or other similar error (as determined in good faith by the Manager).

7.2                               Exculpation of Covered Persons. The liability of any Covered Person to the Company or to any Member or Holder for any loss suffered by the Company or any monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duties is hereby eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by the Act. Covered Persons shall not be liable for errors in judgment. Any Covered Person may consult with counsel and accountants and any Member, officer, employee or committee of the Company or other professional expert in respect of Company affairs, and provided such Covered Person acts in good faith reliance upon the advice or opinion of such counsel or accountants or other persons, such Covered Person shall not be liable for any loss suffered by the Company in reliance thereon. If the Act is hereafter amended or interpreted to permit further limitation of the liability of Covered Persons beyond the foregoing, then this paragraph shall be interpreted to limit the liability of Covered Persons to the fullest extent permitted by the Act, as amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to limit the liability of Covered Persons to a greater extent than that permitted by said law prior to such amendment). In furtherance of, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Covered Persons shall not be (a) liable for the debts, obligations or liabilities of the Company, including any such debts, obligations or liabilities arising under a judgment, decree or order of a court; (b) obligated to cure any deficit in any Capital Account; (c) required to return all or any portion of any Capital Contribution; or (d) required to lend any funds to the Company.

7.3                               Right to Indemnification for Covered Persons. Subject to the limitations and

15

conditions as provided in this Article VII, each Person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative (hereinafter a “Proceeding”), or any appeal in such a Proceeding or any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such a Proceeding, by reason of the fact that he, she or it, or a Person of whom he, she or it is the legal representative, is or was a Covered Person or while a Covered Person is or was serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise shall be indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the Act, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment) against judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes and punitive damages), fines, settlements and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by such Person in connection with such Proceeding, and indemnification under this Article VII shall continue as to a Person who has ceased to serve in the capacity that initially entitled such Person to indemnity hereunder; provided that no such Person shall be indemnified for any judgments, penalties, fines, settlements or expenses (i) to the extent attributable to conduct for which indemnification would not be permitted under the Act or other applicable law, (ii) for any present or future breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by such Person contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement with the Company, or (iii) in any action (except an action to enforce indemnification rights set forth in this Section 7.3) brought by such Person. It is expressly acknowledged that the indemnification provided in this Article could involve indemnification for negligence or under theories of strict liability.

7.4                               Contract with Company. The rights granted pursuant to this Article VII shall be deemed contract rights, and no amendment, modification or repeal of this Article shall have the effect of limiting or denying any such rights with respect to actions taken or Proceedings arising prior to any amendment, modification or repeal.

7.5                               Advance Payment. The right to indemnification conferred in this Article VII shall include the right to be paid or reimbursed by the Company the reasonable expenses incurred by a Person of the type entitled to be indemnified under Section 7.3 who was, is or is threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent in a Proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding and without any determination as to the Person’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification; provided, however, that the payment of such expenses incurred by any such Person in advance of the final disposition of a Proceeding shall be made only upon delivery to the Company of a written affirmation by such Person of his or her good faith belief that he has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under Article VII and a written undertaking, by or on behalf of such Person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VII or otherwise.

7.6                               Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Company, by adoption of a resolution of the Manager, may indemnify and advance expenses to any employees or agents of the Company who are not or were not Covered Persons but who are or were serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit

16

plan or other enterprise against liabilities and expenses asserted against such Person and incurred by such Person in such a capacity or arising out of their status as such a Person, to the same extent that it may indemnify and advance expenses to Covered Persons under this Article VII.

7.7                               Appearance as a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VII. the Company may pay or reimburse expenses incurred by a Covered Person in connection with the appearance as a witness or other participation in a Proceeding at a time when the Covered Person is not a named defendant or respondent in the Proceeding.

7.8                               Nonexclusivity of Rights. The right to indemnification and the advancement and payment of expenses conferred in this Article VII shall not be exclusive of any other right that a Covered Person or other Person indemnified pursuant to Section 7.6 may have or hereafter acquire under any law (common or statutory), provision of the Certificate or this Agreement, any agreement, vote of Members or otherwise.

7.9                               Insurance. The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any Person who is or was serving as a Covered Person or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic limited ability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such expense, liability or loss under this Article VII.

7.10                        Savings Clause. If this Article VII 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 the Manager or any other Person indemnified pursuant to this Article VII as to costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article VII that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

Each Holder shall furnish to the Manager all pertinent information in its possession relating to Company operations that is necessary to enable the Company’s income tax and other tax returns to be prepared and filed.

8.2                               Tax Matters Member. Unless and until the Members shall otherwise unanimously agree, the Manager shall be the “tax matters partner” of the Company pursuant to Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code (the “Tax Matters Member”).

17

other governmental agency with jurisdiction, and to sign such consents and to enter into settlements and other agreements with such agencies as the Manager deems necessary or advisable.

(b)                                 Tax Elections. The Tax Matters member may, in its sole discretion, make or revoke any election under the Code or the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder (including for this purpose any new or amended Treasury Regulations issued after the date of formation of the Company).

(c)                                  Reimbursement of Expenses. Promptly following the written request of the Tax Matters Member, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, reimburse and indemnify the Tax Matters Member for all reasonable expenses, including reasonable legal and accounting fees, claims, liabilities, losses and damages incurred by the Tax Matters Member in connection with any administrative or judicial proceeding (i) with respect to the tax liability of the Company and/or (ii) with respect to the tax liability of the Holders in connection with the operations of the Company.

(d)                                 Survival of Provisions. The provisions of this Section 8.2 shall survive the termination of the Company or the termination of any Holder’s interest in the Company and shall remain binding on the Holders for as long a period of time as is necessary to resolve with the Internal Revenue Service any and all matters regarding the Federal income taxation or other taxes of the Company or the Holders.

8.3                               Indemnification and Reimbursement for Payments on Behalf of a Holder. If the Company is obligated to pay any amount to a governmental agency (or otherwise makes a payment) because of a Holder’s status or otherwise specifically attributable to a Holder (including, without limitation, federal withholding taxes with respect to foreign Persons, state personal property taxes, state unincorporated business taxes, etc.), then such Holder (the “Indemnifying Holder”) shall indemnify the Company in full for the entire amount paid (including, without limitation, any interest, penalties and expenses associated with such payments). The amount to be indemnified shall be charged against the Capital Account of the Indemnifying Holder, and, at the option of the Manager, either:

(a)                                 promptly upon notification of an obligation to indemnify the Company, the Indemnifying Holder shall make a cash payment to the Company equal to the full amount to be indemnified (and the amount paid shall be added to the Indemnifying Holder’s Capital Account but shall not be treated as a Capital Contribution), or

(b)                                 the Company shall reduce distributions which would otherwise be made to the Indemnifying Holder, until the Company has recovered the amount to be indemnified (and, notwithstanding Section 3.1. the amount withheld shall not be treated as a Capital Contribution).

A Holder’s obligation to make contributions to the Company under this Section 8.3 shall survive the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Company, and for purposes of this Section 8.3. the Company shall be treated as continuing in existence. The Company may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Holder under this Section 8.3. including instituting a lawsuit to collect such contribution with interest calculated at a rate equal to the Base Rate plus three percentage points per annum (but not in excess of the highest rate per annum permitted by law).

(a)                                           a determination by the Manager;

(b)                                           the written consent of the Members holding the Required Interest; or

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

The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of additional or substituted Members.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Article XI, the Company is intended to have perpetual existence.

11.2                   Liquidation and Termination. On dissolution of the Company, the Manager shall act as liquidator or may appoint one or more Members as liquidators). The liquidators shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The costs of liquidation shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidators shall continue to operate the Company properties with all of the power and authority of the Manager. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidators are as follows:

23

(a)                                 Proper Accounting. As promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final liquidation, the liquidators shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public accountants of the Company’s assets, liabilities and operations through the last day of the calendar month in which the dissolution occurs or the final liquidation is completed, as applicable;

(b)                                 Notice. The liquidators shall cause the notice described in the Act to be mailed to each known creditor of and claimant against the Company in the manner described thereunder;

(c)                                  Satisfaction of Liabilities. The liquidators shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Company funds all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company (including, without limitation, all expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof;

(d)                                 Contractual Claims. The liquidators shall make reasonable provision to pay all contingent, conditional or unmatured contractual claims known to the Company;

(e)                                  Compensation for Claims. The liquidators shall make such provision as will be reasonably likely to be sufficient to provide compensation for any claim against the Company which is the subject of a pending action, suit or proceeding to which the Company is a party;

(f)                                   Unknown Claims. The liquidators shall make such provision as will be reasonably likely to be sufficient for claims that have not been made known to the Company or that have not arisen but that, based on facts known to the Company, are likely to arise or to become known to the Company within 10 years after the date of dissolution; and

(g)                                  Remaining Assets. All remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed to the Holders in accordance with Section 4.2(a) by the end of the Taxable Year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Company occurs (or, if later, 90 days after the date of the liquidation).

All distributions in kind to the Holders shall be made subject to the liability of each distributee for costs, expenses and liabilities theretofore incurred or for which the Company has committed prior to the date of termination, and those costs, expenses and liabilities shall be allocated to the distributees pursuant to this Section 11.2. The distribution of cash and/or property to a Holder in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.2 constitutes a complete return to the Holder of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Holder of its interest in the Company and all of the Company’s property and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented within the meaning of the Act. To the extent that a Holder returns funds to the Company, it has no claim against any other Holder for those funds.

11.3                   Cancellation of Certificate. On completion of the Distribution of Company assets as provided herein, the Company shall be terminated, and the Manager (or such other Person or Persons as the Act may require or permit) shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of Delaware, cancel any other filings made pursuant to Section 1.1 or 12.2 and take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Company.

A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the business and affairs of the Company and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 11.2 hereof in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up.

ARTICLE XII

Each Holder hereby constitutes and appoints the Manager and the liquidators, with full power of substitution, as his true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in his, her or its name, place and stead, to execute, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file and record in the appropriate public offices; (i) this Agreement, all certificates and other instruments and all amendments thereof which are in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and which the Manager deems appropriate or necessary to form, qualify, or continue the qualification of, the Company as a limited liability company in the State of Delaware and in all other jurisdictions in which the Company may conduct business or own property, (ii) all instruments which the Manager deems appropriate or necessary to reflect any amendment, change, modification or restatement of this Agreement which is made and approved in accordance with its terms, (iii) all conveyances and other instruments or documents which the Manager deems appropriate or necessary to reflect the dissolution and liquidation of the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including a certificate of cancellation and (iv) all instruments relating to the admission, withdrawal or substitution of any Holder pursuant to Article X hereof.

(b)                                           Irrevocable. The foregoing power of attorney is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and shall survive the Incapacity of any Holder and the transfer of all or any portion of his or its Units and shall extend to such Holder’s heirs, successors, assigns and personal representatives.

12.2                   Filings. Following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company and the Members shall promptly prepare any documents required to be filed and recorded under the Act, and the Company and the Members shall promptly cause each such document to be filed and recorded in accordance with the Act and, to the extent required by local law, to be filed and recorded or notice thereof to be published in the appropriate place in each jurisdiction in which the Company may hereafter establish a place of business. The Company and the Members shall also promptly cause to be filed, recorded and published such statements of fictitious business name and any other notices, certificates, statements or other instruments required by any provision of any applicable law of the United States or any state or other jurisdiction that governs the conduct of its business from time to time.

12.3                   Offset. Whenever the Company or any Subsidiary is to pay any sum to any Holder under this Agreement or pursuant to any other agreement or right, any amounts that such Holder owes to the Company or any Subsidiary under this Agreement or pursuant to any other agreement or right may be offset against and deducted from that sum before payment.

25

12.4                   Notices. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, all notices, requests, or consents provided for or permitted to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given or made when (a) delivered personally to the recipient, (b) telecopied or delivered by electronic mail to the recipient (with hard copy sent to the recipient by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid) that same day) if telecopied or e-mailed before 5:00 pm Chicago time on a Business Day, and otherwise on the next Business Day, (c) one Business Day after being sent by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid), or (d) five Business Days after being depositing in the United States mail, addressed to the recipient, postage paid, and registered or certified with return receipt requested.

Any notice, request, or consent to the Company or the Manager must be given to the Manager at the following address:

Whenever any notice is required to be given by law, the Certificate or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

12.5                   Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Members and their Affiliates relating to the Company and supersedes all prior contracts or agreements with respect to the Company, whether oral or written.

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

12.7                   Amendments. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Agreement may be amended, modified, or waived from time to time only by the written consent of the Members holding the Required Interest.

26

In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any provision of the Certificate or any mandatory provision of the Act, the applicable provision of the Certificate or the Act shall control. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of that provision to other Persons or circumstances is not affected thereby and that provision shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.

12.10      Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each Holder shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and those transactions.

12.12      Notice to Members of Provisions. By executing this Agreement, each Member acknowledges that it has actual notice of (i) all of the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, the restrictions on Transfer set forth in Article X) and (ii) all of the provisions of the Certificate.

Each Holder shall have all rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement and all rights and remedies which such Person has been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such Person has under any law.

27

this Agreement, and all references to Schedules are to schedules attached hereto, each of which is incorporated herein and made a part hereof for all purposes.

At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall reexecute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

12.18      No Public Disclosure. The Company shall not disclose any Holder’s name or identity as an investor in the Company in any press release or other public announcement or in any document or material filed with any governmental entity, without the prior written consent of such Person, unless such disclosure is required by applicable law or governmental regulations or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, in which case prior to making such disclosure the Company shall give written notice to such Person describing in reasonable detail the proposed content of such disclosure and shall permit such Person to review and comment upon the form and substance of such disclosure.

“(b) Transfer. The offer, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or other disposition of any interest in any Unit (whether with or without consideration and whether voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law), directly or indirectly, is referred to herein as a “Transfer.”

3.              The following language is added as Paragraph 10.1 (c) of the Operating Agreement:

“(c)                       Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, each Holder shall be entitled to pledge its Units to, and otherwise ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇ and security interest in its Units and all of its right, title and interest under this Agreement in favor of any financier (each, a “Pledgee”) and/or any successor or replacement financier therefor without any further consents, approvals or actions required by any Holder, the Company or any other person under this Agreement or otherwise.
