and prior to the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the Company shall make the following distributions:

(a) The Manager shall determine the estimated taxable income allocable to each Member for the periods (each, an “Estimated Tax Period”) beginning January 1 and ending March 31, May 31, August 31 and December 31 of each year, and not later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the following April, June, September and January, respectively, make the distributions described in this Section 5.1(a). To the extent of the sum of Net Cash from Operations for each Estimated Tax Period (reduced by any prior distributions pursuant to Section 5.1(a) with respect to such period) and available drawings under the Company’s revolving credit line, the Company shall distribute to the Members, in proportion to the Members’ Percentage Interests, an amount equal to the Tax Amount with respect to such Estimated Tax Period (as determined pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof).

5.2 Tax Amount. The “Tax Amount” with respect to each Estimated Tax Period shall equal an amount necessary to cause the cumulative distributions by the Company with respect to the calendar year including such Estimated Tax Period (which for greater clarity, shall not include (i) distributions described in Section 5.1(b) made during such calendar year with respect to the prior calendar year and (ii) the Remaining Priority Distribution) to be no less than the result of the following calculation when performed with respect to whichever Member produces the largest Tax Amount: (a) twice the product of (i) the net taxable income of the Company for that Estimated Tax Period allocable to such Member (plus any net taxable income of the Company allocable to such Member with respect to any prior year pursuant to an audit adjustment that becomes final during that Estimated Tax Period, without duplication of any amount included in the calculation of any Tax Shortfall with respect to such Estimated Tax Period) (taking capital losses for the year into account only to the extent of capital gains), multiplied by (ii) the Applicable Tax Rate for that period, plus (b) any Tax Shortfall from the immediately preceding calendar year (provided that there shall be no Tax Shortfall for any period prior to January 1, 2001). The “Applicable Tax Rate” for an Estimated Tax Period shall equal the greater of the maximum marginal federal income tax rate applicable to individuals for such period or the maximum marginal federal income tax rate applicable to corporations for such period; provided, however, that if the State of Nevada enacts an income tax (including any franchise tax based on income), the Applicable Tax Rate for any Tax Amount subsequent to the effective date of such income tax shall be increased by the higher of the maximum marginal individual tax rate or corporate income tax rate imposed by such tax (after reduction for the federal tax benefit for the deduction of state taxes, using the maximum marginal federal individual or corporate rate, respectively). A “Tax Shortfall” with respect to a calendar year

shall equal the excess, if any, of the aggregate of the Tax Amount with respect to that year over the distributions made pursuant to Section 5.1 with respect to that year.

Article 13. BUY-SELL

13.1 Conditions Precedent to Buy-Sell. The Buy-Sell provisions of this Agreement may not be instituted by any Member if such Member is in default of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

13.2 Exercise of Right to Buy or Sell. At any time after the occurrence of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 13.1, either Member may make an offer to purchase (“Offer”) the interest of the other Member. The Offer shall be in writing and shall set forth a statement of the aggregate dollar amount which the offering Member is willing to pay for all of the assets of the Company, free and clear of all monetary liabilities and obligations (other than non-delinquent property taxes and assessments secured by liens on the Company property) relating thereto (the “Specified Valuation Amount”). The Offer shall constitute an irrevocable offer by the Member giving the Offer either to (i) purchase all, but not less than all, of the interest of the Company of the other Member free of liens and encumbrances for an amount equal to the amount the other Member would be entitled to receive if the Company sold all of its assets and business for the Specified Valuation Amount on the date of such notice and immediately thereafter the Company, deducted customary closing costs that would be associated with a third-party sale, allocated all income, gain, loss, credit or other items therefrom in accordance with this Agreement, and distributed the net proceeds to each Member in liquidation of the Company pursuant to Section 14.2(c) hereof (the “Sales Price”), or (ii) sell all, but not less than all, of its interest in the Company free of liens and encumbrances to the other Member for an amount equal to the amount the offering Member would be entitled to receive if the Company sold all of its assets and business for the Specified Valuation Amount on the date of such notice and immediately thereafter the Company, deducted customary closing costs that would be associated with a third party sale, allocated all income, gain, loss, credit or other items therefrom in accordance with this Agreement, and distributed the net proceeds to each Member in liquidation of the Company pursuant to Section 14.2(c) hereof (the “Purchase Price”). The Member receiving the Offer shall have a period of two (2) months to accept the Offer to sell at the Sales Price or, in the alternative, to require that the Offering Member sell its interest to the other Member at the Purchase Price. The Member receiving the Offer shall give written notice (“Notice of Election”) of its acceptance of the Offer to sell or purchase to the Offering Member within two (2) months of the receipt of the Offer. Failure to give the Notice of Election within such two (2) month period shall constitute an acceptance of the Offer to sell to the Offering Member on the terms set forth in the Offer, and for purposes of Section 13.3(f) shall be treated as the giving of a Notice of Election at the end of such two (2) month period. The closing of the transaction for the sale or purchase of the Company interest shall occur not later than six

(6) months after the Notice of Election or at such other time as may be required by the Nevada Gaming Authorities. Subject to any agreements to which the Company is a party, the Member purchasing the Company interest pursuant to this Section 13.2 (the “Purchasing Member”) shall be entitled to encumber the Company property in order to finance the purchase, provided that the other Member (the “Selling Member”) shall have no liability, contingent or otherwise, under such financing. The Purchasing Member may assign all or part of its right to purchase the Company interest of the Selling Member to an Affiliate of the Purchasing Member, provided that no such assignment shall relieve the Purchasing Member of its obligations under this Article 13 in the event of a default by such Affiliate. In the event of such an assignment, references in this Article 13 to the Purchasing Member shall include, where the context permits, such Affiliate.

13.3 Closing.

(a) At the closing of a transaction pursuant to this Article 13, the Members shall execute such documents and instruments of conveyance as may be necessary or appropriate to confirm the transaction contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the transfer of the Company interest of the Selling Member and the assumption by the Purchasing Member of the Selling Member’s obligations under the Agreement (other than any liability for past breaches of the Agreement). The reasonable costs of such transfer and closing, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and filing fees, shall be divided equally between the Purchasing and Selling Members.

(b) The closing of the purchase and sale of the Member’s interest shall be subject to the approval of the Nevada Gaming Board and Commission. The Purchasing Member shall file all necessary applications for approval of the transaction with the Nevada Gaming Board and Commission within sixty (60) days after the Notice of Election. The Purchasing Member shall pay all costs and fees in connection with the approval of the Nevada Gaming Board and Commission.

(c) At the close of the transaction contemplated under the provisions of Section 13.2, the Selling Member shall assign to the Purchasing Member all of the interest of the Selling Member in the Company, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, and shall execute and deliver to the Purchasing Member an amended Certificate of Fictitious Name (or cancellation thereof), together with all other documents as may be reasonably required to give effect to the transfer of the Selling Member’s interest in the Company. In connection with such transfer, the Members shall take all necessary action to discharge or release any Affiliate of the Selling Member from any guarantee of any debt of the Company, but only if the Purchasing Member expressly consented to the guaranty by the Affiliate.

(d) The Purchasing Member shall use its best efforts to use the assets of the Company to discharge all loans and other indebtedness, liabilities or other obligations of the Company (but shall not be required to prepay any obligations under any permanent loans secured by the Company property) for which the Selling Member has any personal or corporate liability or otherwise obtain the release of the Selling Member from any such liability.

(e) The Purchasing Member shall indemnify and hold harmless the Selling Member from all indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations of the Company, whether the

same arose prior to or after the purchase, except that such indemnification shall not apply to liabilities, if any, of the Company which were created by the Selling Member while acting in fraud of either the Company or the rights of the Purchasing Member or in violation of the terms of this Agreement.

(f) Beginning with the day on which the Member receiving the Offer gives the Notice of Election (the “Election Date”), the Percentage Interest of the Selling Member shall be reduced to zero percent and no allocations of income, loss or other items (other than allocations of taxable income or loss pursuant to Section 704(c)) shall be made to the Selling Member with respect to periods following the Election Date; provided, for greater clarity, that such change in the Percentage Interests shall not affect the determination of the Sales Price or the Purchase Price. From and after the Election Date, no distributions shall be made by the Company to the Selling Member, except as provided in this Section 13.3(f). On the later of ten (10) Business Days following the Notice of Election or the end of the earliest Estimated Tax Period that includes the date of the Notice of Election, the Company shall distribute to the Selling Member an amount equal to (i) the taxable income, if any, allocated to the Selling Member for federal tax purposes for the calendar year including such Estimated Tax Period (other than allocations of taxable income or loss pursuant to Section 704(c)), (ii) multiplied by the maximum marginal federal income tax rate applicable to individuals for such period (if the Selling Member is an individual or is a pass-through entity the income of which is taxable to individuals) or the maximum marginal federal income tax rate applicable to corporations for such period (if the Selling Member is taxed as a Subchapter C corporation, or is a pass-through entity the income of which is taxable to an entity that is taxed as a Subchapter C corporation); provided, however, that if the State of Nevada enacts an income tax (including any franchise tax based on income) that is effective for such Estimated Tax Period, the tax rate shall be increased by the effective increase in the combined maximum income tax applicable to the Selling partner (after reduction for the federal tax benefit for the deduction of state taxes), and (iii) reduced by any prior distributions to the Selling Member pursuant to Section 5.1(a) with respect to the calendar year including such Estimated Tax Period. Allocations shall be made with respect to the period ending on the Election Date by means of a closing of the books of the Company as of the close of business on the Election Date. After an Offer has been made, and until the Election Date, the Company shall provide each Member with five (5) Business Days notice of any distribution to be made pursuant to Section 5.1(b), above.

Article 14. DISSOLUTION AND WINDING UP

14.1 Liquidating Events. The Company shall dissolve and commence winding up and liquidating upon the first to occur of any of the following (“Liquidating Events”):

(a) January 1, 2053;

(b) The sale of all or substantially all of the property of the Company;

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

(e) The occurrence of an Event of Bankruptcy (as defined in Section 15.1) of a Member; or

(f) The Members are unable to agree upon a replacement Manager as provided in Section 6.4.

The Members hereby agree that, notwithstanding any provision of Nevada law, the Company shall not dissolve prior to the occurrence of a Liquidating Event. If it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Company has dissolved prior to the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the Members hereby agree to continue the business of the Company without a winding up or liquidation.

14.2 Winding Up. Upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the Company shall continue solely for the purpose of winding up its affairs in an orderly manner, liquidating its assets, and satisfying the claims of its creditors and Members and no Member shall take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, winding up the Company’s business and affairs. To the extent not inconsistent with the foregoing, all covenants and obligations in this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until such time as the Company property has been distributed pursuant to this Section and the Company has terminated. The Manager shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and liquidation of the Company, shall take full account of the Company’s liabilities and assets, shall cause the assets to be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair market value thereof, and shall cause the proceeds therefrom, to the extent sufficient therefor, to be applied and distributed in the following order:

(a) First, to the payment and discharge of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities to creditors other than Members;

(b) Second, to the payment and discharge of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities to Members; and

(c) The balance, if any, to the Members in the amount of their respective Capital Accounts, after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all periods or portions thereof.

The Manager shall not receive any additional compensation for any services performed pursuant to this Section, but shall be entitled to reimbursement for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith. Each Member understands and agrees that by accepting the provisions of this Section setting forth the priority of the distribution of the assets of the Company to be made upon its liquidation, such Member expressly waives any right which it, as a creditor of the Company, might otherwise have to receive distributions of assets pari passu with the other creditors of the Company in connection with a distribution of assets of the Company, and hereby subordinates to said creditors any such right.

Any gains or losses on the disposition of properties of the Company in the process of liquidation shall be credited or charged to the Members in accordance with Annex I hereto. Any property distributed in kind in the liquidation shall be valued by agreement of the Members and treated as though the property were sold and the cash proceeds distributed. The difference between the agreed value of the property distributed in kind and its book value shall be treated as a gain or loss on sale of the property and shall be credited or charged to the Members in accordance with Annex I hereto.

14.3 Compliance with Certain Requirements of Regulations. In the event the Company is “liquidated” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), distributions shall be made pursuant to this Section to the Members who have positive Capital Accounts in compliance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2).

It is the expectation of the Members that, as a result of the operation of the provisions of this Agreement for allocation of income and loss, distributions pursuant to Section 5.1, and keeping of Capital Accounts, upon a liquidation of the Company (including a deemed liquidation pursuant to the provisions of Section 13.2), the Capital Account of Eldorado will exceed the capital account of Galleon by $10 million and Eldorado receive $10 million more than Galleon pursuant to Section 14.2 (c) (or if the Capital Account of Eldorado has been reduced at the time of the liquidation to an amount less than $10 million, and the Capital Account of Galleon is zero or less, then Eldorado will receive all distributions made pursuant to Section 14.2(c)). Accordingly, the Members agree that this Agreement shall be interpreted consistently with such expectation.

14.4 Reserve for Contingent and Unforeseen Liabilities. In the discretion of the Manager, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Members pursuant to this Article 14 may be:

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

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

14.5 Rights of Members. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, (a) each partner shall look solely to the assets of the Company for the return of its Capital Contributions and shall have no right or power to demand or receive property other than cash from the Company and (b) no Member shall have priority over any other Member as to the return of its Capital Contributions, distributions, or allocations.

14.6 Notice of Dissolution. In the event a Liquidating Event occurs, the Manager shall, within thirty (30) days thereafter, (a) provide written notice thereof to each of the Members and to all other parties with whom the Company regularly conducts business (as determined in the discretion of the Manager), and (b) publish notice of such dissolution in a newspaper of general circulation in each place in which the Company regularly conducts business.

Article 15. BANKRUPTCY OR DISSOLUTION OF A MEMBER

15.1 Event of Bankruptcy. Considering the personal nature of the relationship between the Members of this Company, upon occurrence of an Event of Bankruptcy with respect to a Member, the remaining Member shall have the right and option to dissolve and liquidate the Company in accordance with Article 14 of this Agreement.

For the purposes of this Agreement, any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Bankruptcy” with respect to the Member involved:

(i) the filing of an involuntary petition under the United States Bankruptcy Act or any other United States or state bankruptcy statute, as now in effect or as hereafter amended, against a Member, which involuntary petition is not dismissed within 120 days after the filing thereof;

(ii) the commencement by a Member of any proceeding of any type under the United States Bankruptcy Act or any other United States or state bankruptcy statute; or

(iii) if a Member makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or allows the appointment of a receiver, trustee, conservator or liquidator of all or any portion of the Member or its assets.

15.2 Status of Bankruptcy Assignee. After the date of an Event of Bankruptcy, the successor to the bankrupt Member shall be considered an assignee of the bankrupt Member’s interest in the Company but shall not be entitled to interfere or participate in management or administration of the Company business or affairs, to receive or require information or an accounting with respect to the Company transactions or to inspect the books of the Company; provided, however, that the successor to the bankrupt Member’s interest in the Company may inspect the books of the Company at reasonable times with reasonable notice for the sole purpose of assuring that the successor receives the appropriate distribution of profits and losses.

Annex I

ALLOCATIONS

Terms not otherwise defined herein or in the Operating Agreement have the meanings set forth in Section A1.2(i).

A1.1 Allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses. For each taxable year or portion thereof, Net Profits and Net Losses shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests.

A1.2 Special Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made in the following order:

(a) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Income Tax Regulations promulgated under the Code, as amended from time to time (“Regulations”), notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain during any fiscal year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such fiscal year (and, if necessary, subsequent fiscal years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and (g). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2) of the Regulations. This Section A1.2(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Section 1.704-1(f) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(b) Member Nonrecourse Debt. Any item of Company loss, deduction or Section 705(a)(2)(B) expenditure that is attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated to the Member or Members that bear the economic risk of loss with respect to such Member Nonrecourse Debt in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement except Section A1.2(a) hereof, if there is a net decrease during any fiscal year in the minimum gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt (within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(3)), then any Member with a share of the minimum gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt at the beginning of such fiscal year shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such fiscal year (and, if necessary, for subsequent fiscal years) equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain as provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4).

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

(e) Limitations on Allocation of Losses. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, in no event shall any allocation of Net Losses (or any other loss, deduction or Section 705(a)(2)(B) expenditure) to any Member cause such Member to have or increase a deficit balance in its Capital Account. If Net Loss (or items thereof) are reallocated under this Section A1.2(e), subsequent allocations of Profits and Losses shall be made so that, to the extent possible, the net amount allocated under this Section A1.2(e) equals the amount that would have been allocated to each Member if no reallocation had occurred under this Section A1.2(e).

(f) Qualified Income Offset. If a Member receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) which creates or increases a deficit balance (taking into account distributions, other than distributions in liquidation of the Company, reasonably expected to be made) in the Member’s Capital Account (as provided in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6)), the Manager shall allocate items of income or gain (as those terms are used in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)) to such Member in an amount and manner to eliminate the Member’s Capital Account deficit attributable to such adjustment, allocation or distribution as quickly as possible to the extent required by the “qualified income offset” provisions of such Regulations.

(g) Capital Account Deficits. For purposes of determining whether a Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account in applying Sections A1.2(a), A1.2(b), A1.2(e) and A1.2(f) hereof, there shall be added to each Member’s Capital Account any amount such Member is obligated to restore to its Capital Account under Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c), as well as any addition thereto pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5) after taking into account thereunder any changes during such fiscal year in Minimum Gain and Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain.

(h) [Intentionally left blank]

(i) Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Depreciation” means, for each fiscal year or other period, an amount equal to the depreciation, amortization or other cost recovery deduction allowable with respect to an asset for such year or other period, except that if the Gross Asset Value of an asset differs from its adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes at the beginning of such year or other period, Depreciation shall be an amount which bears the same ratio to such beginning Gross Asset Value as the federal income tax depreciation, amortization or other cost recovery deduction for such year or other period bears to such beginning adjusted tax basis.

“Gross Asset Value” means, with respect to any asset, the asset’s adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes, except as follows: (a) the initial Gross Asset Value of any asset contributed by a Member to the Company shall be the gross fair market value of such asset, as determined by the Members; and (b) the Gross Asset Value of all assets whose Gross Asset Value has been adjusted pursuant to Section A1.5(a) hereof shall be adjusted pursuant to the last sentence of Section A1.5(a) hereof. It is intended that Gross Asset Value of an asset be commensurate with its “book value” as determined under Regulations Section 1.704-1(b).

“Losses” means, for each taxable year or other period, an amount equal to the Company’s items of taxable deduction and loss for such year or other period, determined in accordance with Section 703(a) of the Code (including all items of loss or deduction required to be stated separately under Section 703(a)(1) of the Code), with the following adjustments:

(a) Any expenditures of the Company described in Section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code or treated as Section 705(a)(2)(B) expenditures under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i), and not otherwise taken into account in computing Loss, will be considered an item of Loss;

(b) Loss resulting from any disposition of Company property with respect to which gain or loss is recognized for federal income tax purposes will be computed by reference to the Gross Asset Value of such property, notwithstanding that the adjusted tax basis of such property may differ from its Gross Asset Value;

(c) In lieu of depreciation, amortization and other cost recovery deductions taken into account in computing taxable income or loss, there will be taken into account Depreciation for the taxable year or other period;

(d) Any items of deduction and loss comprising Regulatory Allocations (as defined in Section A1.3) shall not be considered in determining Loss; and

(e) Any decrease to Capital Accounts as a result of any adjustment to the Gross Asset Value of Company assets pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2) (iv)(f), (g) or (m) and Section A1.5 hereof shall constitute an item of Loss.

“Member Nonrecourse Debt” means “partner nonrecourse debt” as defined in Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(4).

“Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain” means Minimum Gain attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt.

“Minimum Gain” means “partnership minimum gain” as defined in Regulations Section 1.704-2(d).

“Net Loss” means, for any period, the excess of Losses over Profits, if applicable, for such period.

“Net Profit” means, for any period, the excess of Profits over Losses, if applicable, for such period.

“Profits” means, for each taxable year or other period, an amount equal to the Company’s items of taxable income and gain for such year or other period, determined in accordance with Section 703(a) of the Code (including all items of income and gain required to be stated separately under Section 703(a)(1) of the Code), with the following adjustments:

(a) Any income of the Company that is exempt from federal income tax and not otherwise taken into account in computing Profit will be added to Profit;

(b) Gain resulting from any disposition of Company property with respect to which gain or loss is recognized for federal income tax purposes will be computed by reference to the Gross Asset Value of such property, notwithstanding that the adjusted tax basis of such property may differ from its Gross Asset Value;

(c) Any items of deduction and loss comprising Regulatory Allocations (as defined in Section A1.3) shall not be considered in determining Profit; and

(d) Any increase to Capital Accounts as a result of any adjustment to the Gross Asset Value of Company assets pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), (g) or (m) and Section A1.5(a) hereof shall constitute an item of Profit.

A1.3 Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Sections A1.2(a), A1.2(b), A1.2(e) and A1.2(f) hereof (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, over the life of the Company all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction pursuant to this Section A1.3. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Manager shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Member’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of the Agreement and all Company items were allocated pursuant to Section A1.1 hereof. In making allocations under this Section A1.3, the Manager shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Section A1.2 that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made under Section A1.2.

A1.4 Code Section 704(c) Allocations.

(a) Solely for federal income tax purposes and not with respect to determining any Member’s Capital Account, distributive share of profit or losses, distributions or other items, a Member’s distributive share of income, gain, loss or deduction with respect to any property (other than money) contributed to the Company shall be determined in accordance with Code Section 704(c) and Regulations thereunder.

(b) For purposes of allocation of income, gain, loss, or deduction under Code Section 704(c), the Company adopts the “traditional method with curative allocations” as identified in Regulations Section 1.704-3(c).

(c) In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company property is adjusted (other than for Depreciation) subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such property shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocation shall be made in a manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement.

A1.5 Other Allocation Rules.

(a) The Gross Asset Values of all Company assets may be adjusted by the Manager, after consultation with the other Member, in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) to equal their respective gross fair market values as reasonably determined by the Manager as of the following times: (i) the acquisition of an additional interest in the Company by any new or existing Member in exchange for more than a de minimis capital contribution; (ii) the distribution by the Company to a retiring or continuing Member as consideration for an interest in the Company of more than a de minimis amount of money or other Company property; and (iii) the liquidation of the Company. In such event, if the Gross Asset Value of an asset does not equal its adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes, such Gross Asset Value shall thereafter be adjusted by the Depreciation taken into account with respect to such asset for purposes of computing Profits and Losses.

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

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