(b) Shares may be Transferred from time to time by IBG Holdings to IBGI in exchange for the proceeds of the sale by IBGI of IBGI Common Stock pursuant to and in accordance with the Exchange Agreement.

Section 8.3 Documentation Regarding Interests. The Members’ Interests shall be documented and recorded by an entry on the Company’s books and shall not be certificated or otherwise documented except as may be determined by the Managing Member. If any Transfer of a Member’s Interest is permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, such Transfer shall after receipt by the Managing Member of all required documentation thereof be made by a proper entry on the books of the Company. Any Transfer which is required pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement may be effected by the Managing Member without further action by the Transferring Member.

Section 8.4 Interests and Shares. Upon the date of this Agreement, the number of Shares into which the Interests are divided corresponds to the sum of the number of shares of IBGI Common Stock outstanding and common shares (representing membership interests) of IBG Holdings outstanding. It is the intent of the Members that this relationship remain constant throughout the term of the Company. It is anticipated that from time to time and without regard to the Exchange Agreement, IBGI may issue additional shares of IBGI Common Stock under incentive plans for employees (including IBGI’s 2007 Stock Incentive Plan), in exchange for capital or in other arrangements that benefit the Company. In any such case, it is the intention of the Members that a corresponding number of Shares shall be issued to IBGI in exchange for the consideration received by it for its issuance of additional shares of IBGI Common Stock. If any shares of IBGI Common Stock are issued subject to restrictions resulting in forfeiture to IBGI or are otherwise redeemed by IBGI, a corresponding number of Shares of the Company shall be surrendered to the Company by IBGI for cancellation. Similarly, if any common shares of IBG Holdings are forfeited to IBG Holdings and as a result thereof are no longer outstanding, a corresponding number of Shares of the Company shall be surrendered to the Company by IBG Holdings for cancellation. These and other adjustments to the number of Shares outstanding may be made from time to time as necessary to properly reflect the relative Interests of the Members.

ARTICLE IX.

MANAGING MEMBER

Section 9.1 Appointment of Managing Member. By the Members’ execution of this Agreement, IBGI is appointed as Managing Member.

Section 9.2 Permitted Transfers. A Managing Member may transfer all or any portion of its Interest to any Person only with the consent of the remaining Members.

Section 9.3 Resignation of Managing Member. Upon ninety (90) days prior written notice, any Managing Member may resign. In the event of the resignation of a Managing Member, a successor Managing Member shall be appointed as provided in Section 9.4 below.

Section 9.4 Successor Managing Member. If the Managing Member ceases to act as Managing Member, the successor Managing Member shall be selected by the majority vote of the Members. The successor Managing Member shall become a Managing Member upon its written acceptance of the appointment and written agreement to be bound as a Managing Member under the terms of this Agreement. In the event a successor Managing Member is designated and accepts the designation, the successor Managing Member shall assume all the duties and obligations of the predecessor Managing Member set forth in this Agreement

Section 9.5 Rights of Resigned Managing Member.

(a) The resignation of a Managing Member shall not affect its right to reimbursement for expenses incurred.

(b) A resigned Managing Member (which term, for purposes of this section, shall include its successors and assigns) shall continue to have the rights and obligations of a Member with respect to its continuing Interest, if any.

ARTICLE X.

ADMISSION AND WITHDRAWAL OF MEMBERS

Section 10.1 Admission. No Person, other than an existing Member, shall acquire an Interest directly from the Company or otherwise be admitted as a Member of the Company except with the consent of the Managing Member and an approving vote of the remaining Members. Any Person to be admitted as a Member shall execute such documents and instruments, including an agreement to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, and shall satisfy such other conditions as the Managing Member shall require.

Section 10.2 Withdrawal and Dissociation. No Member shall be permitted to withdraw from the Company without the consent of the Managing Member and an approving vote of the remaining Members. Anything in Section 34-180 of the Act to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided herein, no Member shall be entitled to receive any distribution of money or other property prior to the dissolution and liquidation of the Company.

ARTICLE XI.

DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION

Section 11.1 Dissolution. The Company shall continue until the occurrence of any one or more of the following events:

(a) such time that the Managing Member, with an approving vote of the remaining Members, determines to dissolve the Company; or

(b) upon the bankruptcy, resignation, dissolution, or withdrawal of the Managing Member, or upon the occurrence of any event which, under the provisions of the Act, would cause a dissolution; provided, however, that upon such an occurrence, no dissolution shall occur if the Members, by a majority vote, elect to continue the business of the Company and appoint a successor Managing Member in accordance with Section 9.4.

No Member has the right, on account of any dissolution of the type described in this Section 11.1, to have the Company’s assets applied to discharge its liabilities or to have the value of its Interest ascertained or paid for.

Section 11.2 Winding-Up of Affairs. Upon the dissolution of the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall immediately commence winding up its affairs and shall file a notice of dissolution or cancellation. The winding-up of the affairs of the Company and the distribution of its assets shall be conducted exclusively by the Liquidator, who is hereby authorized to do all acts authorized by law for these purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Liquidator, in carrying out such winding-up and distribution, shall have full power and authority to sell all or any of the Company assets or to distribute the same in kind to the Members. Any assets distributed in kind shall be subject to all operating agreements or other agreements relating thereto which shall survive the termination of the Company. Following the winding-up of the Company, the proceeds from liquidation of Company assets shall be applied and distributed as set forth in Section 11.3.

Section 11.3 Liquidating Distributions.

(a) Following dissolution of the Company and incident to the winding-up of the Company’s affairs, all debts and liabilities of the Company shall be discharged in the order of priority provided by law. The fair market value of the respective remaining assets of the Company shall then be determined; with the fair market value of any assets other than cash being determined by an independent appraiser selected by the Liquidator with the approval of a majority vote of the Members. Thereupon, the assets of the Company shall be distributed to the Members in proportion to the number of Shares held by each Member in relation to the aggregate number of outstanding Shares. For purposes of such allocation only, it shall be assumed that the assets of the Company other than cash had been sold for an amount equal to their fair market value as determined above, and that the income, gain or loss from such sale had been allocated in accordance with Article III. Each Member shall receive its share of the assets in cash or in kind, and the proportion of such share that is received in cash may vary from Member to Member, all as the Liquidator may decide. Except as provided below, if such distributions are insufficient to return to any Member the full amount of its Capital Contributions, such Member shall have no recourse against the Company or any other Member.

(b) The proceeds of liquidation and any unliquidated assets of the Company shall be distributed as provided in Section 11.3(a). Any reserves established by the Liquidator in the course of such distribution shall be held for so long as the Liquidator shall deem necessary in a special account maintained by the Liquidator for the purpose of paying contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations. At the time the Liquidator determines that there is no longer

a need for the reserve, it shall be distributed in the order of priority established in Section 11.3(a). The distribution of the reserve shall commence where the initial distribution of the assets of the Company ended. For purposes of this Section 11.3, expenses of dissolution and liquidation shall be treated as debts and obligations of the Company.
