If prior to, or at the time of, FinTech’s initial business combination, in order to facilitate such a business combination, the Manager deems it necessary for the Company to (a) forfeit, transfer or exchange all or any portion of the Company’s Founder Shares or Private Placement Units, or amend the terms under which the Founder Shares or Private Placement Units were issued or any restrictions or other provisions relating to the Founder Shares or Private Placement Units set forth in the instruments establishing the same (including voting in favor of any such amendment) or (b) enter into any other arrangements with respect to the Founder Shares or Private Placement Units (each, a “Business Combination Transaction”), the Manager may, in its sole and absolute discretion, cause the Company to enter into any such Business Combination Transaction requested by FinTech, provided that the terms of any such Business Combination Transaction are no more favorable to any Founder Shares or Private Placement Units held by any Member other than through a Membership Interest (“Other FinTech Shares”) than to the terms applicable to the Founder Shares or Private Placement Units held by the Company. If Founder Shares, Private Placement Units or any other securities held by the Company are forfeited or transferred as part of a Business Combination Transaction, such forfeited or transferred securities shall be allocated ratably amongst the Members according to the percentage interest(s) to which such securities relate, as set forth on Schedule A, provided that any Other FinTech Shares held by Members shall be forfeited or reduced in the same manner. By way of example, and without limiting the foregoing, if the Company forfeits a portion of its Founder Shares, the forfeited Founder Shares shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their Founder Shares Percentages and the number of Founder Shares in which each Member has a direct or indirect interest shall be reduced accordingly.

 

 

3.08 Preemptive Rights.

 

(a) Exercise of Preemptive Rights. The Manager (with the prior written consent of Members holding a majority of the Residual Percentages), may from time to time cause the Company to issue new Membership Interests (“Offered Membership Interests”), and each Member shall have the right (a “Preemptive Right”) to purchase all or part of its ratable portion of any Offered Membership Interests (calculated as set forth in subsections (i), (ii) and (iii) below); provided, however, that the Manager may issue without the consent of any Members, and Members shall have no Preemptive Right with respect to, new Membership Interests issued in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Private Placement Units in connection with the closing of the IPO. The Company shall give written notice of any proposed issuance or sale of Offered Membership Interests (the “Additional Issuance Notice”) to each of the Members specifying the total amount of capital to be raised, the type of Membership Interests to be issued and the material terms and conditions pertaining thereto, including the price and proposed issuance date. Each Member may exercise its Preemptive Right to purchase its ratable portion of the Offered Membership Interests by delivering written notice (a “Preemptive Rights Notice”) to the Company within ten days following receipt of the Additional Issuance Notice. A Preemptive Rights Notice shall state that the Member shall purchase such Offered Membership Interests on the terms specified in the Additional Issuance Notice and indicating the amount and type, if applicable, of Offered Membership Interests such Member wishes to purchase. Any Preemptive Rights Notice so delivered shall be binding upon delivery and irrevocable by the applicable Member. If a Member does not deliver a Preemptive Rights Notice to the Company within such ten day period the Member shall not have the right to purchase its ratable portion of Offered Membership Interests pursuant to this Section 3.08. The ratable portion of Offered Membership Interests initially offered to each Member shall be determined based on such Member’s Founder Shares Percentage, Private Placement Units Percentage or Residual Percentage, as applicable, determined by multiplying the Offered Membership Interests by

 

(i) in the case of Membership Interests representing new Private Placement Units, such Member’s Private Placement Units Percentage; or

 

(ii) in the case of Membership Interests representing new Founder Shares, such Member’s Founder Shares Percentage; or

 

(iii) in the case of any other Membership Interests, the Residual Percentage of such Member.

 

 

(b) Overallotment of Offered Membership Interests. No later than five business days following the expiration of the Overallotment Exercise Period, the Company shall provide written notice to each Member that validly exercised its Preemptive Right of the amount of Offered Membership Interests that each Preemptive Member has agreed to purchase (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where such number is zero) (the “Overallotment Offer Notice”). Each Member exercising its Preemptive Right to purchase its ratable portion of the Offered Membership Interests in full (an “Exercising Member”) shall have the right to purchase any portion or all of the Offered Membership Interests described in the Additional Issuance Notice with respect to which Members failed to exercise their Preemptive Right by delivering to the Company within five business days following receipt of the Overallotment Offer Notice (the “Overallotment Exercise Period”) written notice (an “Overallotment Purchase Notice”) stating that the Exercising Member shall purchase such Offered Membership Interests on the terms specified in the Additional Issuance Notice and indicating the amount and type, if applicable, of Offered Membership Interests such Member wishes to purchase. If more than one Exercising Member returns an Overallotment Purchase Notice in accordance with this section, then the Offered Membership Interests offered pursuant to the Overallotment Offer Notice shall be allotted between such Exercising Members as they shall agree, or if they are unable to agree, then in proportion to their relative Residual Percentages determined by multiplying (x) the Offered Membership Interest by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Residual Percentage of the Exercising Member and the denominator of which is the sum of the Residual Percentages of all Exercising Members that deliver an Overallotment Purchase Notice in accordance with this section.

 

(c) Sales to the Prospective Buyer. After the expiration of the Overallotment Exercise Period and allotment and purchase of Offered Membership Interests pursuant to Section 3.08(b), the Company shall be free to complete the proposed issuance or sale of Offered Membership Interests described in the Overallotment Offer Notice with respect to which Members failed to exercise their Preemptive Right under Section 3.08(a) and (b) on terms no less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Additional Issuance Notice (except that the amount of Offered Membership Interests to be issued or sold by the Company may be reduced); provided, that (x) such issuance or sale is closed within 30 business days after the expiration of the Overallotment Exercise Period (subject to the extension of such 30 business day period for a reasonable time not to exceed 60 business days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any government approvals) and (y) for the avoidance of doubt, the price at which the Offered Membership Interests are sold is at least equal to or higher than the purchase price described in the Additional Issuance Notice. In the event the Company has not sold such Offered Membership Interests within such time period, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any Offered Membership Interests without first again offering such securities to the Members in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.08.

 

(d) Amendment of Agreement. Following compliance with this Section 3.08, the Manager shall amend this Agreement as necessary to reflect the addition of new Members, the issuance of Additional Membership Interests and/or the contribution of additional funds to the extent such amendments are consistent with the terms approved by the Members in accordance with Section 3.08(a).

 

3.09 Loans From Members. Any Member may make a loan to the Company in accordance with Section 6.04. Loans by any Member to the Company shall not be considered Capital Contributions and shall not affect the maintenance of such Member's Capital Account, other than to the extent provided in Section 3.03(a)(iii), if applicable.

 

 

3.10 Expenses. All expenses of the Company (including the Company’s indemnification obligations under Section 6.06) shall be funded from available cash. To the extent that available cash is not sufficient to fund expenses, the Manager may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of (i) first, Founder Shares until all Founder Shares held by the Company have been sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of and (ii) second, Private Placement Units, in each case subject to the Lockup Period and any other written contractual restrictions on transfer to which the Founder Shares or Private Placement Units may be subject. If any Founder Shares or Private Placement Units are sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of pursuant to this Section 3.10, the number of Founder Shares or Private Placement Units so sold, transferred or disposed of shall be allocated ratably amongst each of the Members according to their Founder Shares Percentages or Private Placement Unit Percentage, as applicable, to reduce the number of Founder Shares or Private Placement Units in which they have a direct or indirect interest. The Manager may amend Schedule A of this Agreement as necessary to reflect such reductions

 

ARTICLE IV

4.02 Withholding and Other Taxes. If the Manager determines in good faith that there is a material possibility that the Company may be obligated to pay (or collect and pay over) the amount of any tax with respect to any Member’s share of any income or distributions from the Company, the Company shall pay withhold (or collect and pay over) the amount of such tax and, as and when required under applicable law, rule or regulation, pay it to the appropriate taxing authority.

 

4.03 Distribution of Assets in Kind. Prior to dissolution of the Company, (a) any distribution of Private Placement Units or Founder Shares shall be made in ratably accordance with each Member’s Private Placement Units Percentage or Founder Shares Percentage, as applicable, and (b) if any assets of the Company other than Private Placement Units or Founder Shares are distributed in kind, such assets shall be distributed on the basis of their fair market value on the date of distribution as determined by the Manager. Any Member entitled to any interest in such assets shall, unless otherwise determined by the Manager, receive separate assets of the Company and not an interest as a tenant-in-common or other undivided interest with other Members so entitled in any asset being distributed, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 18-605 of the Act. Each Member acknowledges that any securities of FinTech it receives may be subject to a Lockup Period.

(e) Neither the Manager nor its Affiliates shall be required to devote their full time to the business of the Company, but shall devote so much of their time and efforts to the affairs of the Company as may in their judgment be necessary to accomplish the purposes of the Company.

 

6.02 Compensation of Manager and Members. No payment shall be made by the Company to the Manager or his, her or its affiliates for the Manager’s services as the Manager, except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement.  The Manager shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for all expenses incurred by him, her or it in managing and conducting the business and affairs of the Company.  The Manager shall determine which expenses, if any, are allocable to the Company in a manner that is fair and reasonable to the Manager and the Company, and if such allocation is made in good faith, it shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

 

 

6.03 Binding the Company. The signature of the Manager on any agreement, contract, instrument or other document shall be sufficient to bind the Company in respect thereof and conclusively evidence the authority of the Manager and the Company with respect thereto, and no third party need look to any other evidence or require the joinder or consent of any other party. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, no Member in its capacity as a Member shall have the authority to bind the Company.

 

6.04 Contracts with Members.

6.05 Exculpation. No Indemnified Person (as defined below) shall have any liability to the Company or to any Member or Manager for any loss suffered by the Company which arises out of any action or inaction by such Indemnified Person with respect to the Company (i) if such Indemnified Person so acted or omitted to act (A) in the good faith and reasonable belief that such course of conduct was in, or was not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, or (B) in reliance on the provisions of this Agreement, and (ii) such course of conduct did not constitute gross negligence, fraud, willful malfeasance or material breach of this Agreement by such Indemnified Person, nor shall any Indemnified Person be liable to the Company or any Member or Manager for losses due to such mistakes, action, or inaction or to the negligence, dishonesty or bad faith of any broker or other agent of the Company, provided that they shall have been selected in good faith. The Manager may consult with counsel and accountants in respect of Company affairs and be fully protected and justified in any reasonable action or inaction that is taken in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel or accountants, provided that they shall have been selected in good faith.

 

 

6.06 Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify, out of the assets of the Company only (including cash proceeds from liability insurance, if any), and hold harmless each Indemnified Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and in respect of all (a) reasonable fees, judgments, fines, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) paid in connection with or resulting from any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, and any appeal therefrom, relating to this Agreement or the activities of the Company against any Indemnified Person, its properties, business, or affairs, (b) losses or damages resulting from such claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, and any appeal therefrom, including amounts paid in settlement or compromise (if recommended by attorneys for the Company) of any such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, and any appeal therefrom, and (c) losses or damages (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) resulting from claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings arising from or relating to the acts of the Indemnified Person in preparing and filing the Registration Statement, seeking and consummating an initial business combination on behalf of FinTech or any other activities relating to such Indemnified Person’s responsibilities to FinTech; provided, however, that this indemnity shall not extend to the Indemnified Person if (i) the Indemnified Person acted with (A) willful misconduct or gross negligence, or (B) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, the Indemnified Person had reasonable cause to believe such Indemnified Person’s conduct was unlawful. The term “Indemnified Person” shall mean: (a) each Person that is or was, or has agreed to become, the Manager or a Member, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Company, as a director, officer, employee, manager or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise; and (b) the Liquidator, if any.

 

6.07 Limitation of Liability. This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create or impose any fiduciary duty on the Members or their respective Affiliates. Furthermore, each of the Members and the Company hereby waives any and all fiduciary duties that, absent such waiver, may be implied by applicable law, and in doing so, acknowledges and agrees that the duties and obligation of each Member to each other and to the Company are only as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Furthermore, the doctrine of corporate opportunity, or any other analogous doctrine, shall not apply with respect to the Company and the Manager in circumstances where the application of any such doctrine would conflict with any of the Manager’s current or future fiduciary duties or contractual obligations to Persons other than the Company. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the Manager or any Member otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Person.

 

6.08 No Prohibition Against Other Business Activities.

 

(a)  The Members expressly acknowledge and agree that: (i) the Manager, each Member and their respective Affiliates are permitted to have, and may presently or in the future have, investments in or other business relationships, ventures, agreements or arrangements with, entities engaged in businesses of every kind, including the business of the Company (an “Other Business”); (ii) the Manager, each Member and their respective Affiliates have or may develop a strategic relationship with businesses that are or may be competitive with the Company; (iii) none of the Manager, any Member or their respective Affiliates will be prohibited by virtue of the Manager's investment in the Company from pursuing and engaging in any such activities; (iv) none of the Manager, any Member or their respective Affiliates will be obligated to present to the Company, or inform the Company of, any opportunity, relationship or investment; and (v) nothing contained herein shall limit, prohibit or restrict the Manager, any Member or their respective Affiliates from serving on the board of directors or other governing body or committee of any Other Business. The parties hereto expressly authorize and consent to the involvement of the Manager, any Member and/or their respective Affiliates in any Other Business; provided, that any transactions between the Company and an Other Business will be on terms no less favorable to the Company than would be obtainable in a comparable arm's-length transaction. The parties hereto expressly waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any rights to assert any claim that such involvement breaches any fiduciary or other duty or obligation owed to the Company or any Member or to assert that such involvement constitutes a conflict of interest by such Persons with respect to the Company or any Member.

 

 

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 6.08(a), the Manager, any Member and their respective Affiliates may make direct investments in securities and instruments that are the same as, or substantially similar to, those in which the Company and FinTech invest or intend to invest at such times and in such amounts as they may each determine in their respective discretion. Neither the Manager, any Member nor any of their respective Affiliates is obligated to offer the Company or FinTech any investment opportunities that they may offer to other investors, including investment funds or other entities similar to the Company or FinTech, or any investment opportunities in which the Manager, any Member or their respective Affiliates may invest in on a proprietary basis, and any decision to do so will be entirely within their discretion.

 

ARTICLE VII

7.01 Books and Records. The Manager shall keep or cause to be kept complete and accurate books and records with respect to the operations of the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, consistently applied. Such books and records shall be maintained and be available, in addition to any documents and information required to be made available to a Member under the Act, at the principal office of the Company or in such other location as the Manager may designate. Upon reasonable notice from any Member or his, her or its Representative, the Manager shall afford to such Member or his, her or its Representatives reasonable access during business hours to such books and records and shall permit such Member or his, her or its Representatives to examine and copy such books and records at such Member’s own expense, as applicable.

 

7.02 Tax Matters Member. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ shall serve as the “tax matters partner” of the Company under Code Section 623l(a)(7), for all purposes of the Code and for the corresponding provisions of any state or local statute (the “Tax Matters Member”). The Tax Matters Member shall cause the Company’s accountant to prepare, and timely file, all Company tax returns, and shall timely make all other filings required by any governmental authority having jurisdiction to require such filing, the cost of which shall be borne by the Company. The Tax Matters Member shall also cause to be delivered to the Members, within ninety (90) days after the expiration of each tax year of the Company, such information relating to the Company as the Manager determines is necessary for the Members to complete their federal, state and/or local income tax returns that include such tax year. No election shall be made by the Company or any Member to be excluded from the application of the provisions of subchapter K of the Code or from any similar provision of state tax laws.

 

 

7.03 Bank Accounts. The Manager may cause the Company to open and maintain one or more accounts with such financial institutions as the Manager may determine to be necessary or advisable.

ARTICLE VIII
TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS

 

8.01 General Restrictions on Transfer of Interests by Members.

 

(a) No Member may Transfer any of his, her or its Membership Interests unless the Manager has approved such Transfer in his, her or its sole and absolute discretion, other than (i) a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee who agrees in writing to be bound by this Agreement or (ii) a Transfer in compliance with Section 8.01(d) below. A Member seeking to Transfer to a Permitted Transferee shall provide written notice to the Company. If the Manager Transfers all of his, her or its Membership Interest to a Permitted Transferee, the Manager shall no longer continue in his capacity as the Manager of the Company.

 

(b) Any Transfer in contravention of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be null and void and ineffective to Transfer any Member’s Membership Interest, or any portion thereof, and shall not bind, or be recognized by, or on the books of, the Company, and any purported transferee in such transaction shall not be or be treated as or deemed to be a Member (or an assignee within the meaning of Section 18-702 of the Act) for any purpose. If any Member shall at any time Transfer a Membership Interest in the Company, or any interest therein, in contravention of any of the provisions of this Agreement, then each other Member shall, in addition to all rights and remedies at law and equity, be entitled to a decree or order restraining and enjoining such transaction, and the offending Member shall not plead in defense thereto that there would be an adequate remedy at law; it being expressly hereby acknowledged and agreed that damages at law would be an inadequate remedy for a breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Agreement concerning such transactions.

 

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article VIII, the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units and the common stock and warrants underlying the Private Placement Units are subject to certain transfer restrictions (including Lockup Periods), and the Overallotment Shares are also subject to forfeiture, in each case as set forth in the Letter Agreement, Subscription Agreement and Underwriting Agreement. No Member shall Transfer such Member’s right to or interest in any such securities in violation of such agreements. Any securities validly transferred in accordance with this Agreement shall continue to be subject to any and all transfer restrictions, Lockup Periods and forfeiture conditions described herein and in any other applicable agreement.

  

 

(d) Right of First Offer.

 

Each time a Member proposes to Transfer all or any part of that Member’s Membership Interest other than to a Permitted Transferee (such Member, an “Offering Member”), such Offering Member shall first obtain the consent of the Manager to the terms of any such transfer by providing written notice to the Manager of the proposed terms of the transfer. The Manager shall, within ten (10) days of receipt of such notice, either approve the proposed terms or propose revised terms to the Offering Member. The Offering Member may accept the revised terms or provide a new proposal to the Manager. In no event will the Manager be required to approve the terms of any proposed offer to transfer the Membership Interests. Following the approval by the Manager of a proposed transfer other than to a Permitted Transferee, an Offering Member shall offer that Member’s Membership Interest to the non-transferring Members by providing written notice (“ROFO Notice”) to all Members with a copy to the Company specifying the percentage and type of Membership Interest the Offering Member desires to Transfer (“Offered Amount”), the price (the “Offering Price”) for which the Offering Member intends to market the Membership Interest for sale and any other material terms of the offer. For a period of thirty (30) days following delivery of the ROFO Notice (the “Rofo Option Period”), each non-transferring Member shall have the right to send an option reply (“Option Reply”) to the Offering Member indicating that such non-transferring Member desires to purchase the offered Membership Interest at the Offering Price, and on the terms and conditions indicated in the ROFO Notice, which terms shall remain outstanding during the ROFO Option Period. If more than one non-transferring Member indicates interest to purchase the offered Membership Interest upon the Offering Price, on the terms and conditions as are contained in the ROFO Notice, then such Membership Interest shall be allotted between them as they shall agree, or if they are unable to agree, then in proportion to their relative Residual Percentages determined by multiplying (x) the offered Membership Interest by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Residual Percentage of the exercising Member and the denominator of which is the sum of the Residual Percentages of all exercising Members. If any exercising Member fails to purchase the entire pro rata amount allotted to such Member, each remaining exercising Member shall have the right to purchase its pro rata portion of that unpurchased amount in proportion to their Residual Percentages within 15 business days of such failure to purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the non-transferring Members do not agree to purchase, in aggregate, the entire Offered Amount, the Offering Member shall not be obligated to sell the Offered Amount to the Members and may instead offer such amount to any third party provided such offer and sale are in compliance with all securities laws (with any such offer and sale to a third party permitted only if at or above the Offering Price and containing substantially similar terms and conditions to those described in the ROFO Notice). To the extent permitted under applicable law, a Member holding Other FinTech Shares shall provide a similar right of first refusal to the other Members as set forth in this Section 8.01(d) with respect to any transfer or sale of his, her or its Other FinTech Shares

 

 

(e) In the event of a proposed Transfer of all or any part of a Manager’s Membership Interest other than to a Permitted Transferee (the “Purchaser”), the Manager shall be required to provide each other Member with at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice (“Tag-Along Notice”) to all Members with a copy to the Company specifying the percentage and type of Membership Interest the Manager desires to Transfer (“Manager Transfer Amount”), the price (the “Manager Transfer Price”) for which the Manager intends to sell the Membership Interest and any other material terms of the proposed Transfer. For a period of thirty (30) days following delivery of the Tag-Along Notice (the “Tag-Along Option Period”), each non-transferring Member shall have the right to send an option reply (“Tag-Along Option Reply”) to the Manager indicating that such non-transferring Member (the “Tagging Member”) elects to Transfer Membership Interests to the Purchaser on the same terms and conditions as those being offered to the Manager. If more than one Tagging Member delivers a Tag-Along Option Reply in accordance with this Section 8.01(e) indicating a desire to Transfer Membership Interests to the Purchaser on the same terms and conditions as those being offered to the Manager, the Membership Interests to be Transferred to the Purchaser shall be allotted amongst the Manager and the Tagging Members as they shall agree, or if they are unable to agree, then in proportion to their relative Residual Percentages determined by multiplying (x) the Manager Transfer Amount by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Residual Percentage of the Tagging Member (or Manager, as applicable) and the denominator of which is the sum of the Residual Percentages of the Manager and all Tagging Members. Failure by a Member to provide the Tag-Along Option Reply within the Tag-Along Option Period shall be deemed to be a rejection of its tag-along rights with respect to such Transfer.

 

After expiration of the Tag-Along Option Period, the Manager and any Tagging Members may consummate such Transfer, provided that the terms and conditions of the actual Transfer are no more favorable to the Manager and/or any Tagging Member than those set forth in the Tag-Along Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the proposed Transfer of the Manager’s Membership Interest by the Manager to the Purchaser shall not be permitted hereunder and any such purported Transfer shall not be valid (and thus shall not have any force or effect) unless the Purchaser accepts and purchases the entirety of the Membership Interests properly tendered by the Tagging Member(s).

 

Notwithstanding the above, the provisions of this Section 8.01(e) shall not apply to any proposed Transfer by the Manager the proceeds of which shall be used to cover expenses of the Company or FinTech. To the extent permitted under applicable law, the Manager shall provide a similar tag-along right to the other Members as set forth in this Section 8.01(e) with respect to any transfer or sale of his, her or its Other FinTech Shares.

 

 

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no transfer to a transferee shall be effective unless (i) the transferee agrees in writing to become a party to this Agreement and to be treated hereunder as a Member for all purposes of this Agreement and (ii) such transferee executes all other documents that he or she is required to execute by the Manager as a condition to such transfer.

  

8.02 Withdrawal, Termination or Death of the Manager.

 

(a) The Manager may voluntarily resign, withdraw or retire as Manager from the Company at any time upon prior written notice to the Company. The Manager shall continue to serve as the Manager until the time at which (i) he, she or its Affiliates no longer holds any Membership Interests, (ii) he, she or it is removed pursuant to Section 8.02(b), (iii) he, she or it voluntarily resigns, withdraws or retires as Manager or (iv) in the case of an individual, such person dies or a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges him or her to be incompetent to manage his or her Person or property.

 

(b) The Manager may be removed at any time by the Members, with or without cause, upon by the vote of the Members representing the holders of at least 75% of the Residual Percentages.

  

(c) In the event there is a vacancy in the position of Manager, a new manager shall be appointed by the vote of the Members representing the holders of at least 75% of the Residual Percentages, and prior to such appointment, the following person(s) shall serve as interim Manager (i) if the Manager is an individual and dies or a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges him, her or it to be incompetent to manage his, her or its Person or his, her or its property, the Manager’s executor, administrator, guardian, conservator or other legal representative may exercise all of the Manager’s rights hereunder, and such executor, administrator, guardian, conservator or legal representative shall be substituted as the interim Manager, or (ii) in all other circumstances, the Member with the highest Residual Percentage shall serve as interim Manager.

 

8.03 Additional Members. Except as provided in Section 8.01, additional Members may be admitted to the Company only upon the written consent of the Manager. Any such consent shall specify the Capital Contribution, Founder Shares Percentage, Private Placement Units Percentage, Residual Percentage and any other rights and obligations of such additional Members. Any offering or issuance of newly-issued Membership Interests to a new Member shall be subject to the Preemptive Rights of the Members set forth in Section 3.08 of this Agreement. In connection with the admission of any additional Member in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement (including Schedule A) shall be amended to reflect the additional Member, his, her or its Capital Contribution, if any, his, her or its Founder Shares Percentage, Private Placement Units Percentage, Residual Percentage and any other rights and obligations of the additional Member and the change in the Founder Shares Percentage, Private Placement Units Percentage and Residual Percentage of the then existing Members. Each additional Member must agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and any transfer restrictions, voting arrangements and forfeiture requirements that are then applicable to the Founder Shares and Private Placement Units.

 

 

Each Member, and each Person who is hereinafter admitted to the Company as a Member, hereby: (i) consents to the admission of any such third party admitted in compliance with this Agreement, and to any amendment to this Agreement which may be necessary or appropriate to reflect such admission, and (ii) acknowledges that, in connection with any admission of any such Person, such Member’s interest in allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses, distributions and net proceeds upon liquidation of the Company, may be diluted or otherwise altered (subject to the provisions of this Section 8.03 and Section 3.08).

 

ARTICLE IX
DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION

 

9.01 Events Causing Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs wound up upon:

(b) The sale, disposition or distribution of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

 

(c) The election to dissolve the Company made in writing by the Manager.

 

9.02 Distributions Upon Liquidation.

 

(a) Upon dissolution of the Company, the Liquidator shall satisfy liabilities owing to creditors whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof (including creating such reserves as may be required by non-waivable provisions of Section 18-804(b) of the Act or as the Liquidator otherwise deems reasonably necessary for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company).

 

(b) After paying such liabilities and providing for such reserves, and to the extent the following have not been previously distributed, the Liquidator shall cause (i) the Founder Shares or any proceeds attributable thereto (if any) to be distributed to the Members pursuant to each Member’s respective Founder Shares Percentage and (ii) the Private Placement Units or any proceeds attributable thereto (if any), to be distributed to the Members pursuant to each Member’s respective Private Placement Units Percentage.

 

(c) After paying such liabilities and providing for such reserves, and to the extent the following have not been previously distributed, the Liquidator shall cause the remaining net assets of the Company (if any) to be distributed to all Members with positive Capital Account balances (after such balances have been adjusted to reflect all debits and credits required by applicable Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code for all events through and including the distribution in liquidation of the Company) among the Members in proportion to and to the extent of such positive balances. Thereafter, any remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed among the Members in accordance with their Residual Percentages.

Each party to this Agreement may execute and deliver this Agreement by an executed signature page transmitted by facsimile or electronic mail, provided that such party promptly thereafter delivers an originally executed signature page.

10.06 Separability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered separable. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is prohibited or ineffective under the Act or other applicable law, this Agreement shall be considered amended to the minimum extent possible in order to make the Agreement effective under the Act or such other applicable law (and, if the Act or such other applicable law is subsequently amended or interpreted in such manner as to make effective any provision of this Agreement that was formerly rendered invalid, such provision shall automatically be considered to be valid from the effective date of such amendment or interpretation).

 

10.07 Section Titles. Article and Section titles are included herein for descriptive purposes only and shall not control or alter the meaning of this Agreement as set forth in the text.

 

10.08 Amendments. Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived by the Manager without the consent of the Members. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no amendment or repeal of Section 6.05 or Section 6.06 shall affect or diminish in any way the rights of any Indemnified Person to exculpation or indemnification under the provisions of Section 6.05 and Section 6.06, respectively, with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or relating to any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such amendment or repeal and (ii) no amendment shall adversely affect a Member’s right to receive distributions pursuant to Article IV and/or Section 9.02 hereof without such Member’s prior written consent.

 

10.09 Third Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Agreement, including Article III, are not intended to be for the benefit of any creditor (other than a Member or Manager, in his, her or its capacity as such, who is a creditor) or other Person (other than a Member or Manager in his, her or its capacity as such) to whom any debts, liabilities or obligations are owed by (or who otherwise has any claim against) the Company or any Member or Manager.

 

10.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Schedule attached hereto embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter.

 

 

10.11 Waiver of Partition. Each Member agrees that irreparable damage would be done to the Company if any Member brought an action in court to partition the Company or any of its assets. Accordingly, each Member agrees that he, she or it shall not, either directly or indirectly, take any action to require partition or appraisal of the Company or of any of the assets or properties of the Company, and notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, each Member (and his, her or its successors and assigns) accepts the provisions of the Agreement as his, her or its sole entitlement on termination, dissolution and/or liquidation of the Company and hereby irrevocably waives any and all right to file a complaint, institute or maintain any action or proceeding at law or in equity for partition or to compel any sale or other liquidation with respect to his, her or its Membership Interest, in or with respect to, any assets or properties of the Company.

 

10.12 No Waiver. The failure of any Member or Manager to insist upon strict performance of a covenant hereunder or of any obligation hereunder, irrespective of the length of time for which such failure continues, shall not be a waiver of such Member’s or Manager’s right, as the case may be, to demand strict compliance with any other provision hereof or of the same provision in the future.

 

10.13 Power of Attorney. By signing this Agreement, each Member designates and appoints the Manager (including any successor Manager) as his, her or its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, in his, her or its name, place, and stead to make, execute, sign, and file the such instruments, documents, or certificates relating to the exercise of authority granted to the Manager under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Manager is hereby granted any authority on behalf of the Members to execute any amendment to this Agreement on behalf of the Members (i) if such amendment is permitted under any provision of this Agreement and (ii) that effects a Transfer of any Membership Interest which complies with Article VIII of this Agreement. This power of attorney granted by each Member shall expire as to such Member immediately after the amendment of the Company’s records to reflect the complete withdrawal of such Member as a Member of the Company. It is expressly intended by each Member that the power of attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable, and shall survive and not be affected by the subsequent death, disability or incapacity of such Member.

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have signed this Agreement as of the date first above written.
