further business following dissolution other than that necessary for the orderly

the Company, the Company's assets shall be applied as follows:

the Company owing to third parties (including Affiliates of the Member) and to
the Member. After payment of any such known liabilities, the Liquidator shall
set up such reserves as are reasonably necessary for any contingent or
unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company. Such reserves may be paid
over by the Liquidator to an escrow holder or trustee, to be held in escrow or
trust for the purpose of paying any such contingent or unforeseen liabilities or
obligations, and, at the expiration of such period as the Liquidator may deem
advisable, such reserves shall be distributed to the Member or its assigns in
the manner set forth in Section 5.2(d)(ii) below.
(ii) MEMBER. Second, to the Member.
5.3 TERMINATION OF COMPANY. Upon the completion of the liquidation
of the Company and the distribution of all Company assets, the Company's affairs
shall terminate and the Liquidator shall cause to be executed and filed an
appropriate certificate, if required, to such effect in the proper governmental
office or offices, as well as any and all other documents required to effectuate
the termination of the Company.
5.4 CONTINUATION OF COMPANY. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company (a) shall not dissolve upon
the
-8-
bankruptcy, dissolution or dissociation of the Member and (b) shall continue to
exist even with no remaining members.

Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York
("UCC"), including for purposes of the grant, pledge, attachment or perfection
of a security interest in the LLC Interests. The law of the State of New York is
