not permit the Company or its subsidiaries to engage in any act or enter into
any contract or other arrangement involving the payment by the Company or its

settlements and reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses) actually incurred by such Person in connection with such Proceeding,
appeal, inquiry or investigation if such Person acted in Good Faith, and

ceased to serve in the capacity which initially entitled such Person to

3.11 shall have the effect of limiting or denying any such rights with respect
to actions taken or Proceedings, appeals, inquiries or investigations arising
prior to any amendment, modification or repeal. It is expressly acknowledged
that the indemnification provided in this Section 3.11 could involve
indemnification for negligence or under theories of strict liability. "Good

special allocations provided in Sections 4.3(c) all Net Income and Net
Loss of the Company for a fiscal year shall be allocated to the
Unitholders as follows:
(A) first, Net Income will be allocated to the
Unitholders having deficit balances in their Capital Accounts
(computed after giving effect to all contributions,
distributions, allocations and other Capital Account adjustments
for all taxable years (other than the items comprising the Net
Income or Net Loss of the Company being allocated to the
Unitholders for the current fiscal year), after adding back each
Unitholder's share of Company Minimum Gain and Member Minimum
Gain as provided in Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and
1.704-2(i)(5)), to the extent of, and in proportion to, those
deficits, unless satisfied by allocations under Section 4.3(c)
hereof; and
(B) second, Net Income and Net Loss not allocated
under Section 4.3(b)(i)(A) will be allocated so as to cause the
credit balance in each Unitholder's Capital Account (computed in
the same manner as provided parenthetically in Section 4.3(b)(i)
(A) hereof) to
21
equal, as nearly as possible, the amount such Unitholder would
receive if the Company sold all of its assets for the Gross Asset
Value of each such asset and distributed the proceeds thereof
(after satisfaction of any liabilities of the Company) in
accordance with the provisions of Section 4.4 hereof.
(c) Additional Allocation Provisions. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 4.3:
(i)
(A) If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum
Gain or Member Minimum Gain during any fiscal year, the
Unitholders shall be allocated items of Company income and gain
for such fiscal year (and, if necessary, for subsequent fiscal
years) in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) or
1.704-2(i)(4), as applicable. It is intended that this Section
4.3(c)(i)(A) qualify and be construed as a "minimum gain
chargeback" and a "chargeback of partner nonrecourse debt minimum
gain" within the meaning of such Regulations, which shall be
controlling in the event of a conflict between such Regulations
and this Section 4.3(c)(i)(A).
(B) Any Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year
shall be specially allocated to the holders of Class A Units in
accordance with the number of Class A Units held by each such
Unitholder. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year
shall be specially allocated to the Unitholder(s) who bears the
economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt
to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable, in
accordance with Regulations Section 1.704- 2(i).
(C) If any Unitholder unexpectedly receives an
adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations
Section 1.704- 1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Company
income and gain shall be allocated, in accordance with
Regulations Section 1.704- 1(b)(2)(ii) (d), to the Unitholder in
an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent
required by such Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account
Deficit of the Unitholder as quickly as possible. It is intended
that this Section 4.3(c)(i)(C) qualify and be construed as a
"qualified income offset" within the meaning of Regulations
1.704- 1(b)(2)(ii)(d), which shall be controlling in the event of
a conflict between such Regulations and this Section
4.3(c)(i)(C).
(D) The allocations set forth in Sections 4.3(c)(i)
(A), (B) and (C) (the "Regulatory Allocations") are intended to
comply with certain regulatory requirements, including the
requirements of Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2.
Notwithstanding the provisions of
22
Section 4.3(b), the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into
account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and
deduction among the Unitholders so that, to the extent possible,
the net amount of such allocations of other items and the
Regulatory Allocations to each Unitholder shall be equal to the
net amount that would have been allocated to each such Unitholder
if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.
(ii) For any fiscal year during which a Unitholder's
interest in the Company is assigned by such Unitholder, the portion of
the Net Income and Net Loss of the Company that is allocable in
respect of such Unitholder's interest shall be apportioned between the
assignor and the assignee of such Unitholder's interest using any
permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Regulations
thereunder, as determined by the Management Committee.
(iii) In the event that any amount claimed by the Company
to constitute a deductible expense in any fiscal year is treated for
federal income tax purposes as a distribution made to a Unitholder in
its capacity as a partner of the Company and not a payment to a
Unitholder not acting in its capacity as a partner under Code Section
707(a), then the Unitholder who is deemed to have received such
distribution shall first be allocated an amount of Company gross
income equal to such payment, its Capital Account shall be reduced to
reflect the distribution, and for purposes of Section 4.3, Net Income
and Net Loss shall be determined after making the allocation required
by this Section 4.3(c)(iii).
(iv) In the event that any amount claimed by the Company
to constitute a distribution made to a Unitholder in its capacity as a
partner of the Company is treated for federal income tax purposes as a
deductible expense of the Company for a payment to a Unitholder not
acting in its capacity as a partner of the Company, then the
Unitholder who is deemed to have received such payment shall first be
allocated the Company expense item attributable to such payment, its
Capital Account shall be reduced to reflect the allocation, and for
purposes of Section 4.3, Net Income and Net Loss shall be determined
after making the allocation required by this Section 4.3(c)(iv).
(d) Required Tax Allocations. All items of income, gain,
loss, deduction and credit for federal income tax purposes shall be
allocated to each Unitholder in the same manner as the Net Income or Net
Loss (and each item of income, gain, loss and deduction related thereto)
that is allocated to such Unitholder pursuant to Section 4.3(a), (b) and
(c) to which such tax items relate. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 4.3, income, gain, loss, deduction, and credits
with respect to property contributed to the Company by a Unitholder shall
be allocated among the Unitholders for federal and state income tax
purposes pursuant to Regulations promulgated under Section 704(c) of the
Code, so as to take account of the variation, if any, between the adjusted
basis for federal income tax purposes of the property to the Company and
its initial Gross Asset Value at the time of contribution. In the event the
Gross Asset Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph
(b), (c), or (d) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, subsequent
allocations of income, gain, loss,
23
deduction, and credits with respect to such asset shall take account of the
variation, if any, between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal
income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under
Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Regulations consistent with the
requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g).
Allocations pursuant to this Section 4.3(d) are solely for purposes of
federal, state and local income taxes and shall not affect, or in any way
be taken into account in computing, any Unitholder's Capital Account or
share of Net Income, Net Loss, other tax items or distributions pursuant to
any provision of this Agreement.
(e) Unitholders' Tax Reporting. The Unitholders acknowledge
and are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by
this Section 4.3 and, except as may otherwise be required by applicable law
or regulatory requirements, hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of
Section 4.3 in reporting their shares of Company income, gain, loss,
deductions, and credits for federal, state and local income tax purposes.
(f) Withholding. Each Unitholder hereby authorizes the
Company to withhold and to pay over any taxes payable by the Company or any
of its Affiliates as a result of the participation by such Unitholder (or
any Assignee of, or Successor in Interest to, such Unitholder) in the
Company; provided that, prior to withholding any amount in respect of
Minnesota income taxes from any Unitholder, the Company shall provide such
Unitholder a reasonable opportunity to provide the Company an exemption
certificate, or its equivalent, to exonerate the Company from any
obligation to withhold such tax. If and to the extent that the Company
shall be required to withhold any taxes, such Unitholder shall be deemed
for all purposes of this Agreement to have received a payment from the
Company as of the time such withholding is required to be paid, which
payment shall be deemed to be a distribution to such Unitholder under
Section 4.4(a) or Section 5.2 to the extent that the Unitholder is entitled
to receive a distribution and shall be taken into account in determining
the amount of future distributions to such Unitholder. To the extent that
the aggregate of such payments to a Unitholder for any period exceeds the
distributions to which such Unitholder is entitled for such period, the
amount of such excess shall be considered a demand loan from the Company to
such Unitholder, with interest at an interest rate of 9% compounded
annually, which interest shall be treated as an item of Company income
until discharged by such Unitholder by repayment, which may be made in the
sole discretion of the Management Committee out of distributions to which
such Unitholder would otherwise be subsequently entitled. The withholdings
referred to in this Section 4.3 shall be made at the maximum applicable
statutory rate under applicable tax law unless the Management Committee
receives documentation, satisfactory to the Management Committee, to the
effect that a lower rate is applicable, or that no withholding is
applicable.
SECTION 4.4 Distributions.
(a) Priority. Distributable Assets will be distributed (or
set aside for the benefit of the applicable Unitholder in the discretion of
the Management Committee) as soon as reasonably practicable after such
Distributable Assets become available to the Company, subject to Sections

equal to the product of (x) 25% multiplied by (y) one minus the
Class C Fraction, to the holders of Class A and Class B Units,
pro rata in accordance with the number of Class A Units and Class
B Units held by each such Unitholder; and
(vii) Seventh, after the required distributions pursuant

Units, pro rata in accordance with the number of Class A Units
and Class B Units held by each such Unitholder;
provided that, if the Distributable Assets being distributed consist

such Unitholder's Units.
(c) Tax Distributions. Subject to the Act and to any
restrictions contained in any agreement to which the Company is bound, no
later than the tenth day of each March, June, September and December, the
Company shall, to the extent of available cash, make a tax distribution to
each Unitholder in an amount equal to the
26
excess of (i) the product of (A) the cumulative taxable income (including
any guaranteed payments for services that are not actually received by such
Unitholder in cash) attributable to the Unitholder's investment as reported
on the Unitholder's Schedule K-1 allocated by the Company to the
Unitholder, in excess of the cumulative taxable loss attributable to the
Unitholder's investment as reported on the Unitholder's Schedule K-1
allocated by the Company to the Unitholder and (B) the combined maximum
federal, state and local marginal income tax rate (taking into account the
deductibility of state and local taxes and adjusted appropriately to take
into account the varying rates applicable to capital gains, qualified
dividend income and ordinary income) applicable to individual residents of
New York, New York, over (ii) all prior distributions pursuant to this
Section 4.4. All distributions made to a Unitholder pursuant to this
Section 4.4(c) on account of the taxable income allocated to such
Unitholder shall be treated as advance distributions under Section 4.4(a)
or Section 5.2 and shall be taken into account in determining the amount of
future distributions to such Unitholder. For purposes of determining the
amount of distributions to be made to the Unitholders pursuant to Section
4.4(a) or Section 5.2, distributions made pursuant to this Section 4.4(c)
shall be deemed made at such time as they offset distributions being made
pursuant to Section 4.4(a) or Section 5.2.
SECTION 4.5 Security Interest and Right of Set-Off. As security for
any withholding tax or other liability or obligation to which the Company may be
subject as a result of any act or status of any Unitholder, or to which the

Company shall have (and each Unitholder hereby grants to the Company) a security
interest in all Distributable Assets distributable to such Unitholder to the
extent of the amount of such withholding tax or other liability or obligation.
The Company shall have a right of setoff against such distributions of
Distributable Assets in the amount of such withholding tax or other liability or
obligation, subject to the proviso in the first sentence of Section 4.3(f). The
Company may withhold distributions or portions thereof if it is required to do
so by the Code or any other provision of federal, state or local tax or other
law. Any amount withheld pursuant to the Code or any other provision of federal,
state or local tax or other law with respect to any distribution to a Unitholder
shall be treated as an amount distributed to such Unitholder for all purposes
under this Agreement.

such Units and shall no longer have any rights or privileges of a Member with

that any predecessor in such Units or other interest in the Company was subject
to or by which such predecessor was bound. No Member shall cease to be a Member
upon the collateral assignment of, or the pledging or granting of a security

ARTICLE VI.
REPORTS TO MEMBERS; TAX MATTERS
-------------------------------
SECTION 6.1 Books of Account. Appropriate books of account shall be
kept by the Management Committee, in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, at the principal place of business of the Company, and
each Member shall have access to all books, records and accounts of the Company
and the right to make copies thereof for any purpose reasonably related to the
Member's interest as a member of the Company, in each case, under such
conditions and restrictions as the Management Committee may reasonably
prescribe.
SECTION 6.2 Reports.
(a) Financial Statements. As promptly as practicable after
the close of each fiscal year of the Company, the Management Committee
shall cause an examination of the financial statements of the Company as of
the end of each such fiscal year to be made in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards as in effect on the date thereof, by a firm of
certified public accountants selected by the Management Committee. Within
60 days after the close of each fiscal year, a copy of the financial
statements of the Company, including the report of such certified public
accountants, shall be furnished to each Unitholder and shall include, as of
the end of such fiscal year:
(i) a statement prepared by the Company setting forth
the balance of each Unitholder's Capital Account and the amount of
that Unitholder's allocable share of the Company's items of Net Income
or Net Loss and deduction, capital gain and loss or credit for such

(ii) a balance sheet, a statement of income and expense

state, and local income tax returns, which information shall include a
Schedule K-1.
(b) Determinations. All determinations, valuations and other
matters of judgment required to be made for accounting purposes under this
Agreement shall be made by the Management Committee and shall be conclusive
and binding on all Unitholders, their Successors in Interest and any other
Person, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, no such Person shall
have the right to an accounting or an appraisal of the assets of the
Company or any successor thereto; provided, however, that with respect to
determinations or valuations related to any determination of which
performance hurdle applies with respect to any Company assets distributed
in kind, if the holders of a majority of the Class B Units disagree in good
faith with the Management Committee's determination, then such holders
through a single representative shall promptly notify the Company in
writing of such disagreement, in which event an independent appraiser,
accountant or investment banking firm (the "Arbiter") selected by mutual
agreement of such holders and the Management Committee shall make a
determination of the Gross Asset Value of the Company assets distributed in
kind or other disputed item thereof solely by (i) reviewing a single
written presentation timely made by each of the Company and the
representative of such holders setting forth their respective resolutions
of the dispute and the bases therefor and (ii) accepting either such
holders' or the Company's proposed resolution of the dispute. Promptly
following the Company's receipt of such holders' written notice of
disagreement, the Company shall make available to such holders all data
(including reports of employees and outside advisors) relied upon by the
Management Committee in making its determination. Such holders' and the
Company's written presentations must be submitted to the Arbiter within 30
days of the Arbiter's engagement. The Arbiter shall notify the
representative of such holders and the Company of its decision within 40
days of its engagement. The party whose proposed resolution is not accepted
shall pay all of the Arbiter's fees and expenses, which in the case of the
holders shall be limited only to those holders challenging the Management
Committee determination. If such holders' proposed resolution is accepted,
the Company also shall pay all of such holders' reasonable out-of-pocket
fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and
one appraiser, accountant or investment banking firm) incurred in
connection with the arbitration. Each of the Company and such holders
agrees to execute, if requested by the Arbiter, a reasonable engagement
letter with the Arbiter.
SECTION 6.3 Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Company shall end on
December 31/st/ of each calendar year unless otherwise determined by the
Management Committee in accordance with Section 706 of the Code.
SECTION 6.4 Certain Tax Matters.
(a) Preparation of Returns. The Management Committee shall
cause to be prepared all federal, state and local tax returns of the
Company for each year for which such returns are required to be filed and
shall cause such returns to be timely filed. The Management Committee shall
determine the appropriate treatment of each
31
item of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Company and the
accounting methods and conventions under the tax laws of the United States,
the several states and other relevant jurisdictions as to the treatment of
any such item or any other method or procedure related to the preparation
of such tax returns. The Management Committee may cause the Company to make
or refrain from making any and all elections permitted by such tax laws.
Each Unitholder agrees that it shall not, except as otherwise required by
applicable law or regulatory requirements, (i) treat, on its individual
income tax returns, any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit
relating to its interest in the Company in a manner inconsistent with the
treatment of such item by the Company as reflected on the Form K-1 or other
information statement furnished by the Company to such Unitholder for use
in preparing its income tax returns or (ii) file any claim for refund
relating to any such item based on, or which would result in, such
inconsistent treatment. In respect of an income tax audit of any tax return
of the Company, the filing of any amended return or claim for refund in
connection with any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit
reflected on any tax return of the Company, or any administrative or
judicial proceedings arising out of or in connection with any such audit,
amended return, claim for refund or denial of such claim, (A) the Tax
Matters Member (as defined below) shall be authorized to act for, and its
decision shall be final and binding upon, the Company and all Unitholders
except to the extent a Unitholder shall properly elect to be excluded from
such proceeding pursuant to the Code, (B) all expenses incurred by the Tax
Matters Member in connection therewith (including attorneys', accountants'
and other experts' fees and disbursements) shall be expenses of, and
payable by, the Company, (C) no Unitholder shall have the right to (1)
participate in the audit of any Company tax return, (2) file any amended
return or claim for refund in connection with any item of income, gain,
loss, deduction or credit (other than items which are not partnership items
within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(4) of the Code or which cease to be
partnership items under Section 6231(b) of the Code) reflected on any tax
return of the Company, (3) participate in any administrative or judicial
proceedings conducted by the Company or the Tax Matters Member arising out
of or in connection with any such audit, amended return, claim for refund
or denial of such claim, or (4) appeal, challenge or otherwise protest any
adverse findings in any such audit conducted by the Company or the Tax
Matters Member or with respect to any such amended return or claim for
refund filed by the Company or the Tax Matters Member or in any such
administrative or judicial proceedings conducted by the Company or the Tax
Matters Member and (D) the Tax Matters Member shall keep the Unitholders
reasonably apprised of the status of any such proceeding. Notwithstanding
the previous sentence, if a petition for a readjustment to any partnership
item included in a final partnership administrative adjustment is filed
with a District Court or the Court of Claims and the IRS has elected to
assess income tax against a Member with respect to that final partnership
administrative adjustments (rather than suspending assessments until the
District Court or Court of Claims proceedings become final), such Member
shall be permitted to file a claim for refund within such period of time to
avoid application of any statute of limitation provisions which would
otherwise prevent the Member from having any claim based on the final
outcome of that review.
32
(b) Tax Matters Member. The Company and each Member hereby
designate ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇ Equity Fund V, L.P. as the "tax matters partner"
for purposes of Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code (the "Tax Matters Member").
(c) Certain Filings. Upon the sale of Company assets or a
liquidation of the Company, Unitholders shall provide the Management
Committee with certain tax filings as reasonably requested by the
Management Committee and required under applicable law.
ARTICLE VII.
MISCELLANEOUS
-------------
SECTION 7.1 Schedules. Without in any way limiting the provisions of
Section 6.2, a Representative may from time to time execute on behalf of the
Company and deliver to the Unitholders schedules which set forth the then
current Capital Account balances of each Unitholder and any other matters deemed
appropriate by the Management Committee or required by applicable law. Such
schedules shall be for information purposes only and shall not be deemed to be
part of this Agreement for any purpose whatsoever.
SECTION 7.2 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT IS GOVERNED BY AND SHALL BE
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, EXCLUDING ANY
CONFLICT-OF-LAWS RULE OR PRINCIPLE THAT MIGHT REFER THE GOVERNANCE OR THE
CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. 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.
SECTION 7.3 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
Successors in Interest; provided that no Person claiming by, through or under a
Member (whether as such Member's Successor in Interest or otherwise), as
distinct from such Member itself, shall have any rights as, or in respect to, a
Member (including the right to approve or vote on any matter or to notice
thereof).
SECTION 7.4 Confidentiality. By executing this Agreement, for three
years from the receipt thereof, each Member expressly agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of, and not to disclose to any Person other than the Company,
another Member or a Person designated by the Company or any of their respective
financial planners, accountants, attorneys or other advisors, any information
relating to the business, financial structure, financial position or financial
results, clients or affairs of the Company that shall not be generally known to
the public, except as otherwise required by law or by any regulatory or
self-regulatory organization having jurisdiction and except in the case of any
Member who is employed by any entity controlled by the Company in the ordinary
course of its duties. Notwithstanding anything to the
33
contrary set forth herein or in any other agreement to which the parties hereto
are parties or by which they are bound, the obligations of confidentiality
contained herein and therein, as they relate to an investment in Membership
Interests (the "Transaction"), shall not apply to the tax structure or tax
treatment of the Transaction, and each party hereto (and any employee,
representative, or agent of any party hereto) may disclose to any and all
persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax structure and tax treatment of
the Transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax
analysis) that are provided to such party relating to such tax treatment and tax
structure; provided, however, that such disclosure shall not include the name
(or other identifying information not relevant to the tax structure or tax
treatment) of any person and shall not include information for which
nondisclosure is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable
securities laws.
SECTION 7.5 Amendments. The Management Committee may, to the fullest
extent allowable under Delaware law, amend or modify this Agreement; provided
that, if an amendment or modification adversely affects any class of Members,
such class of Members must approve such amendment or modification; provided
further that, the Management Committee may amend this Agreement without the
consent of any class of Members in order to provide for the issuance of any
Company units in accordance with Section 2.9 hereof and the terms of the
Management Unit Subscription Agreements and to make any such other amendments as
it deems necessary or desirable to reflect such additional issuances provided
that, no such amendment shall adversely affect the relationship among the Class
A Units, Class B Units and Class C Units as set forth herein; provided further
that no amendment shall be effective if such amendment results in Units held by
a Member being redesignated to a different class of Unit than the class of which
it is then included, without such Member's consent.
SECTION 7.6 Notices. Whenever notice is required or permitted by this
Agreement to be given, such notice shall be in writing and shall be given to any
Unitholder at its address or telecopy number shown in the Company's books and
records, or, if given to the Company, at the following address:

SECTION 7.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts (including by means of telecopied signature pages), all
of which together shall constitute a single instrument.
SECTION 7.8 Power of Attorney. Each Member hereby irrevocably
appoints each Representative as such Member's true and lawful representative and
attorney-in-fact, each acting alone, in such Member's name, place and stead, (i)
to make, execute, sign and file all instruments, documents and certificates
which, from time to time, may be required to set forth any amendment to this
Agreement or which may be required by this Agreement or by the laws of the
United States of America, the State of Delaware or any other state in which the
Company shall determine to do business, or any political subdivision or agency
thereof and (ii) to execute, implement and continue the valid and subsisting
existence of the Company or to qualify and continue the Company as a foreign
limited liability company in all jurisdictions in which the Company may conduct
business. The chief executive officer, as representative and attorney-in-fact,
however, shall not have any rights, powers or authority to amend or modify this
Agreement when acting in such capacity, except as expressly provided herein.
Such power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall survive and
continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the subsequent withdrawal from
the Company of any Member for any reason and shall survive and shall not be
affected by the disability or incapacity of such Member.
SECTION 7.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement amends, restates and
supersedes in its entirety the Original Agreement. This Agreement and the other
documents and agreements referred to herein or entered into concurrently
herewith embody the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in
respect of the subject matter contained herein; provided that, such other
agreements and documents shall not be deemed to be a part of, a modification of
or an amendment to this Agreement. There are no restrictions, promises,
representations, warranties, covenants or undertakings, other than those
expressly set forth or referred to herein. This Agreement supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject
matter.
SECTION 7.10 Section Titles. Section titles and headings are for
descriptive purposes only and shall not control or alter the meaning of this
Agreement as set forth in the text hereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Amended and
Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement as of the day and year first above
written.
