5.2Company Allocations.

(a)Profits and Losses.  For each taxable year or portion of a taxable year for which the Company is required to allocate Profits, Losses, or other items pursuant to this Article 5, after giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 5.3 and 5.4, Profits and Losses of the Company shall be allocated to the Members and the Former GE Members, as the case may be, in proportion to their Percentage Interests for all relevant periods ending prior to the Effective Date and with respect to any period ending after but including the Effective Date in accordance with Section 5.5(c) and to the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests for all relevant periods (or portions thereof) commencing after the Effective Date, subject to the limitation in Subsection 5.2(b) with respect to the allocation of Losses.  Solely for purposes of this Section 5.2 (a)-(g) and Sections 5.3, 5.4, 5.5 and 5.6, the reference to “Members” shall include the Former GE Members to the extent covering periods ending prior to or including the Effective Time using the Percentage Interest of the Members and the Former GE Members at the applicable time.

(b)Loss Limitation.  The Losses allocated pursuant to Subsection 5.2(a) shall not exceed the maximum amount of Losses that can be so allocated without causing any Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any taxable year.  All losses otherwise allocable to a Member in excess of the limitation set forth in this Subsection 5.2(b) shall be allocated (A) in the case of any Penske Member and PAG, to those Penske Members and PAG without such an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit in proportion to and to the extent of the amount of Losses that can be allocated to each such Penske Member and PAG without causing it to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, (B) with respect to any period ending prior to or including the Effective Time (consistent with Section 5.5(c)), in the case of any Former GE Member, to the other Former GE Members without such an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit in

21

proportion to and to the extent of the amount of Losses that can be allocated to each such Former GE Member without causing in each case such Former GE Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, and (C) in the case of any such excess Losses not allocated to a Member under clause (A) or clause (B) of this Subsection 5.2(b), to each Member without such an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, after the application of clauses (A) and (B) of this Subsection 5.2(b), in proportion to and to the extent of the amount of Losses that can be allocated to each such Member without causing it to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit.

(c)Initial GE Members, Memco and GECC.  As of February 20, 2015, each of the Initial GE Members ceased to be a Member and ceased to have any Capital Account, Member Interest or limited liability company or other equity interest in the Company.  As of the date hereof, Memco ceased to be a Member and ceased to have any Capital Account, Member Interest or limited liability company or other equity interest in the Company and shall not, with respect to any periods (or portions thereof) commencing after the Effective Time, be allocated any Profits, Losses or other items pursuant to this Article 5, including any special allocations.  GECC is not a Member, has no Capital Account, Member Interest or limited liability company or other equity interest in the Company and shall not be allocated any Profits, Losses or other items pursuant to this Article 5, including any special allocations.

5.3Special Allocations.  The following special allocations shall be made in the following order:

(a)Minimum Gain Chargeback.  Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 5, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Company taxable year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such taxable year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704¬2(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 Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2).  This Subsection 5.3(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(b)Member Minimum Gain Chargeback.  Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 5, if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt during any Company taxable year, each Member who has a share of the Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such taxable year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4).  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 Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2).  This Subsection 5.3(b) is intended to comply with the

22

minimum gain chargeback requirement in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c)Qualified Income Offset.  In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Regulations Section 1.704- 1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to each such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Member as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Subsection 5.3(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Article 5 have been tentatively made as if this Subsection 5.3(c) and Subsection 5.3(h) were not in the Agreement.

(d)Gross Income Allocation.  In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any taxable year that is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount such Member is obligated to restore (pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise) and (ii) the amount such Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to this Subsection 5.3(d) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article 5 have been made as if Subsections 5.3(c) and 5.3(h) and this Subsection 5.3(d) were not in the Agreement.

(e)Nonrecourse Deductions.  Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable year shall be specially allocated among the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

(f)Member Nonrecourse Deductions.  Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable year shall be specially allocated to the Member 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)(1).

(g)Code Section 754 Adjustment.  To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Member in complete liquidation of its interest in the Company, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with their interests in the Company in the event Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Members to whom such distribution was made in the event Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.

(h)Special Allocation During Period of Liquidation.  In the event that the Capital Accounts of the Members would not otherwise be in proportion to their Percentage Interests in the year liquidating distributions are made under Subsection 12.3(d), after all other

23

allocations provided for in this Article 5 have been made as if this Subsection 5.3(h) were not in the Agreement, items of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction for all taxable years of the Company which include any portion of the period from the date of the event of dissolution described in Section 12.1 that results in the liquidation through the date of the final distribution under Subsection 12.3(d) shall be allocated among the Members in such manner as to cause the Capital Accounts of the Members to be in proportion to their Percentage Interests.  To the extent necessary to achieve Capital Accounts that are in proportion to Percentage Interests, after all other items of income, gain, loss, and deduction have been taken into account under this Subsection 5.3(h), with respect to each Member, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the product of such Member’s Percentage Interest and the aggregate amount of all of the Members’ Capital Accounts over (ii) the amount that would be the Member’s Capital Account absent application of this sentence shall be treated as paid to such Member as a guaranteed payment, and the corresponding deduction shall be allocated among the other Members as required to achieve the desired proportionality of Capital Accounts.

5.4Curative Allocations.  The allocations set forth in Subsection 5.2(b) and Section 5.3, other than Subsection 5.3(h) (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, 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 5.4.  Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 5 (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Managing Member shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate (without causing an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for any Member) 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 Subsection 5.2(a).  In exercising its discretion under this Section 5.4, the Managing Member shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Subsections 5.3(a) and 5.3(b) that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made under Subsections 5.3(e) and 5.3(f).

5.5Other Allocation Rules.

(a)Profits, Losses, and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit shall be allocated to the Members pursuant to this Article 5 as of the last day of each taxable year, provided that Profits, Losses, and such other items shall also be allocated at such times as the Gross Asset Values of Company assets are adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (2) of Subsection 2.51.

(b)The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Article 5 and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article 5 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 of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit allocable to any period, Profits, Losses, and any such other items shall be determined on a daily, monthly, or other basis using the closing of the books

24

method or, if proposed by the Managing Member with respect to a particular period, any other permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Regulations thereunder; provided, however, that such other method must be approved by Memco for any period ending prior to or including the Effective Date, to the extent such other method would have any adverse impact on a Former GE Member.

(d)Any “excess nonrecourse liability” of the Company, within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with the Members interests in Company profits.  Solely for purposes of this Subsection 5.5(d), the Members’ interests in Company profits are in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

5.6Tax Allocations; Code Section 704(c).

(a)In accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset Value.

(b)In the event the Gross Asset Value of any asset of the Company shall be adjusted pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(c)Any elections or other decisions relating to such Section 704(c) allocations shall be made by the Members in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement.  Section 704(c) allocations pursuant to this Section 5.6 are solely for purposes of federal, state, and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

(d)Except as otherwise determined by the Managing Member, the Company shall use the “traditional method” (as defined in Regulations Section 1.704-3(b)) for purposes of computing section 704(c) allocations with respect to property contributed to the Company with a Gross Asset Value that differs from its adjusted tax basis at the time of contribution, and for purposes of computing reverse section 704(c) allocations with respect to property for which differences between Gross Asset Value and adjusted tax basis are created when the Company revalues Company property pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f); provided, however, that such other method must be approved by Memco for any period ending prior to or including the Effective Date, to the extent such other method would have any adverse impact on a Former GE Member.

5.7Accounting Method.  The books of the Company (for tax reporting purposes) shall be kept on an accrual basis.  Any change in the accounting method affecting periods ending prior to or including the Effective Date will require the prior written consent of Memco to the extent such change would have any adverse impact on a Former GE Member.

(vi)All payments (including principal and interest) by the Company on, or of financing costs or other fees or expenses with respect to, the Bonds shall be treated as distributed in cash to the Members and the Former GE Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests on the date such payment was or is made, with amounts so treated as distributed to PTLC or PAG further treated as used to make payments (including principal and interest) to GECC on, or of financing costs or other fees or expenses with respect to, such Member’s Funding Loan; and

(vii)All Fall Away Payment Amounts (as defined in the Indemnification Agreements) treated under this Agreement as distributed to PTLC or PAG shall be treated as used by such Member to make payments (including principal and interest) to GECC on, or of financing costs or other fees or expenses with respect to, such Member’s Funding Loan, and then used by GECC to make payments (including principal and interest) on, or of financing costs or other fees or expenses with respect to, the Bonds.

The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the above characterizations of the Bonds and the related payments and expenses described in this Subsection 8.2(e) and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Subsection 8.2(e) in reporting such items for income tax purposes.

35

37

9.4Intentionally Omitted.

9.5Certain General Provisions.

(a)Intentionally omitted.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Subsection 9.2, in the event that the acquisition by a Person of a Member Interest pursuant to any such provision would result in the Company ceasing to enjoy the status of a limited liability company under Delaware Law, then such Person shall not effect such acquisition, but such Person may effect the acquisition through an Affiliate of such Person or member of such Person’s consolidated group if such acquisition eliminates the cessation of the Company enjoying the status of a limited liability company under Delaware Law.

(c)The Members and Memco agree, upon request of the Managing Member, to execute such certificates or other documents and perform such acts as the Managing Member reasonably deems appropriate to preserve the status of the Company as a limited liability company, upon or after the completion of any Transfer of any Member Interest, under Delaware Law.

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, in the event of any Sale of a Member Interest permitted by this Agreement, the transferor Member shall not cease to be a Member or be deemed to have withdrawn as a Member until the transferee of such Member Interest shall have been admitted as a Member pursuant to Section 9.10.

(e)The Company has not registered and does not intend to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act in reliance on the exception from such registration provided in Section 3(c)(7) thereof.  Accordingly, and notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Subsection 9.5(e) shall govern any Sale of Member Interests for so long as the Company determines (in the Company’s sole discretion) to retain its ability to qualify for the exception from registration provided by Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act.  In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Section 9.5 and any other provision of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 9.5(e) shall govern.

(i)All Member Interests shall be offered and Sold without registration under the Securities Act in transactions that are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof and/or in transactions otherwise exempt from such requirements and in any event only to persons that are Qualified Purchasers that meet the requirements of paragraph (iii) of this Section 9.5(e) in reliance on the exception from registration as an investment company provided by Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act.

(ii)Member Interests may be Sold to a transferee only if such transferee is a Qualified Purchaser (and meets the requirements as set forth in paragraph (iii) of this Section 9.5(e), as certified in a transfer certificate (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B) delivered to the Managing Member) and the Sale is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

38

(iii)The Company has not registered and does not intend to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act in reliance on the exception from such registration provided in Section 3(c)(7) thereof.  Member Interests are to be offered and Sold only to persons that are Qualified Purchasers (and meet the other requirements set forth in Annex 1 hereto).  Each Member shall represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree, and each subsequent purchaser or other transferee of a Member Interest will, by its acceptance or purchase thereof, represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree, to the restrictions as set forth in Annex 1 hereto.  In addition, at any time that a Member shall make a contribution of capital to the Company, such Member shall, by such action, represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree to the restrictions as set forth in Annex 1 hereto.  If a holder of a Member Interest shall at any time after its acquisition of such Member Interest be unable to make the representations, warranties, acknowledgments and agreements set forth in Annex 1, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Managing Member.

(iv)The Members agree that Schedule B hereto, and any amendment thereto delivered to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.3(c) hereof, shall bear the restrictive legend substantially in the form set out in Exhibit A hereto, for so long as the Company determines to retain its ability to rely on the exception provided by Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act.  The Company shall not delete or change such legend at any time prior to the Indemnification Satisfaction Date without the prior written approval of Memco in its sole discretion.

(v)In addition, whether or not the Company is relying on Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act, Schedule B hereto will bear such part of the legend set forth in Exhibit A that is applicable to the Securities Act (or a legend substantially to such effect) for so long as such portion of the legend and the restrictions on Sale set forth therein are required to ensure that Sales thereof comply with the provisions of the Securities Act.

(vi)No Member Interest shall be Sold unless it is to a transferee that is a Qualified Purchaser and meets the other requirements set forth in Annex 1 hereto.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Sale of a Member Interest may be made if such Sale would require registration of the Company under the Investment Company Act.  Each person that purchases or otherwise acquires a Member Interest will be required to certify in a transfer certificate in the form set forth in Exhibit B that it meets the requirements set forth above under Annex 1 hereto.  In addition to the other requirements herein, the Managing Member may request such additional documents and certifications as it may reasonably deem necessary (including an opinion of counsel) in order to verify that a Sale of a Member Interest is exempt from or not subject to registration under the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws and would not require the Company to register under the Investment Company Act.  The Managing Member may deem as void and of no effect and deny any Sale of a Member Interest if it reasonably determines that such Sale is subject to but not registered or exempt from registration under applicable securities laws or could require the Company to register under the Investment Company Act.

39

(vii)Any purported Sale of a Member Interest or any beneficial interests therein that is in breach, at the time made, of any transfer restrictions set forth in this Agreement will be void ab initio.  The Managing Member shall be entitled to require any holder of a Member Interest that is determined not to have been a Qualified Purchaser (or to have not met the other requirements set forth under Annex 1 hereto) at the time of acquisition of such Member Interest, to forthwith Sell such Member Interest to a person that is a Qualified Purchaser meeting the requirements set forth under Annex 1 hereto in a transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.  If such holder (or beneficial owner) fails to effect an immediate Sale of such Member Interest, the Managing Member may cause such holder’s Member Interest to be Sold to a person that certifies to the Managing Member that it is a Qualified Purchaser meeting the other requirements set forth in Annex 1 hereto and is aware that the Sale is being made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act, together with the other acknowledgements, representations and agreements made by a transferee of a Member Interest.  After the receipt of a written notice from the Managing Member of any such Sale, the Managing Member may treat the transferee of such Member Interest as the owner thereof for all purposes hereunder.

(viii)Until the Company determines (with the prior written consent of Memco in its sole discretion if such determination is made prior to the Indemnification Satisfaction Date) not to retain its ability to qualify for the exception from registration provided by Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act, the Members shall not cause the Company to offer a Member Interest in its own or any affiliated participant-directed employee plan.

(ix)Until the Company determines (with the prior written consent of Memco in its sole discretion if such determination is made prior to the Indemnification Satisfaction Date) not to retain its ability to qualify for the exception from registration provided by Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act, the Members shall not cause the Company to issue any Member Interest or any other security or interest therein except pursuant to substantially the same provisions as are set forth in this Section 9.5(e).

9.6Allocation of Profits, Losses and Distributions Subsequent to Sale.  All Profits, Losses, or any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of the Company attributable to any Member Interest acquired by reason of any Sale of such Member Interest (i) that are allocable, in accordance with Subsection 5.5(c) to the portion of the Company Year ending on the effective date of the Sale shall be allocated, and any distributions made with respect thereto shall be distributed, to the transferor, and (ii) that are allocable, in accordance with Subsection 5.5(c), to subsequent periods shall be allocated, and any distributions made with respect thereto shall be distributed, to the transferee.  The effective date of any Transfer permitted under this Agreement, subject to the provisions of Section 9.9, shall be the close of business on the Business Day the Company is notified of the Sale.

9.7Death, Incompetence, Bankruptcy, Liquidation or Withdrawal of a Member.  The death, incompetence, Bankruptcy, liquidation or withdrawal of a Member shall not cause (in and of itself) a dissolution of the Company, but the rights of such a Member to share in the Profits and Losses of the Company, to receive distributions and to assign its Interest pursuant to this

40

Article 9, on the happening of such an event, shall devolve on its beneficiary or other successor, executor, administrator, guardian or other legal representative for the purpose of settling its estate or administering its property, and the Company shall continue as a limited liability company.  Such successor or personal representative, however, shall become a substituted member only upon compliance with the requirements of Section 9.10 hereof with respect to a transferee of a Member Interest.  The estate of a Bankrupt Member shall be liable for all the obligations of the Member.

9.8Satisfactory Written Assignment Required.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, both the Company and the Managing Member shall be entitled to treat the transferor of a Member Interest as the absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for distributions of cash or other property made in good faith to it, until such time as a written assignment or other evidence of the consummation of a Sale that conforms to the requirements of this Article 9 and is reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Member has been received by and recorded on the books of the Company, at which time the Sale shall become effective for purposes of this Agreement.

9.9Transferee’s Rights.  Any purported Transfer of a Member Interest which is not in compliance with this Agreement shall be null and void and of no force or effect whatsoever.  A permitted transferee of any Member Interest pursuant to Sections 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 or 9.7 hereof or any transferee of a Member Interest pursuant to the Indemnification Agreements shall be entitled to receive, in accordance with Section 9.6, allocations of Profits, Losses, or other items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of the Company attributable to such Member Interest and allocable to periods after the effective date of the Transfer, and distributions of cash or other property from the Company made with respect to periods after the effective date of the Transfer, but shall not become a Member unless and until admitted pursuant to Section 9.10 hereof

9.10Transferees Admitted as Members.  The assignee or transferee of any Member Interest shall be admitted as a Member only upon the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(a)A duly executed and acknowledged written instrument of Sale, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Managing Member, and either a copy of each of this Agreement and, in the case of PAG or a Penske Member, the applicable Indemnification Agreement duly executed by the transferee or an instrument of assumption in form and substance satisfactory to GECC setting forth the transferee’s agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and, in the case of PAG or a Penske Member, the applicable Indemnification Agreement (including the portion of the Backstop Indemnity Obligation corresponding to the Member Interests being Transferred which shall be determined by multiplying the percentage of Member Interests in the Company being transferred by such Member by 50.1%) have been delivered to the Company; provided that GECC shall have the opportunity to request additional information or documentation reasonably necessary to make a determination that the assumption of Backstop Indemnity Obligation is being made by a creditworthy party; provided further that the assumption of such Backstop Indemnity Obligation shall not release the transferring Member of any of its obligations under the Backstop Indemnity Obligation unless such transferring Member is PAG and the Transfer is effected in accordance with Section 11.4(c) of the Indemnification Agreement executed by PAG; and

41

(b)The transferee has paid any fees and reimbursed the Company for any expenses paid by the Company in connection with the Sale and admission.

The effective date of an admission of an assignee of a Member and the withdrawal of the transferring Member, if any, shall be the first day which is the last Business Day of a calendar month to occur following the satisfaction of the foregoing conditions, except as otherwise may be agreed by all the Members in writing.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each Member agrees that any Sale of Collateral (as defined in the Indemnification Agreements) taken in accordance with the Indemnification Agreements or a Third-Party Sale or Equity Offering as contemplated by Article 10 shall be valid and effective (including under Section 18-702 of the Delaware Act), without further approval or other action by any Member, to transfer all right, title and interest of each applicable Member in the Member Interest so sold (including the rights to (x) share in profits and losses, (y) receive distributions and (z) receive allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit or similar item) to any Person in accordance with the Indemnification Agreements, this Agreement and applicable Law.

10.1Fall Away Event and Obligations of the Company to GECC.  Prior to the Fall Away Event and the Redemption, the Company was obligated to pay 100% of the total amount of the Interest Obligations and Maturity Obligations (as those are required to be paid under the Bond Indenture), together with all expense relating to the Bonds to the extent of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, except for Permitted Working Capital.  As a result of the Fall Away Event, (a) the Company was obligated pursuant to the First Amended LLC Agreement to pay to GECC 100% of the total amount of the Interest Obligations and Maturity Obligations (as those are required to be paid under the Bond Indenture), together with all expenses relating to the Bonds to the extent of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, except for Permitted Working Capital and (b) the Company was relieved of any and all direct and indirect obligations to the trustee and the noteholders under and with respect to the Bond Indenture.  As a result of the Redemption, the Company’s obligation to pay to GECC was reduced from 100% to, and the Company hereby agrees to pay by wire transfer to GECC (instructions to be provided by GECC), 50.1% of the total amount of the Interest Obligations and Maturity Obligations (within three business days before such payments are required to be paid under the Bond Indenture from time to time, without regard to any modifications of the Bond Indenture after the Effective Time or any prepayment by GECC of the Interest Obligations or Maturity Obligations after the Effective Time), together with all expenses relating to the Bonds, (the “GECC Obligations”) to the extent of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, except for the Permitted Working Capital, in advance of each original scheduled due date (as reflected in the Bond Indenture) as though GECC were the Trustee under the Bond Indenture.  Such payments shall be deemed distributions in proportion to the Percentage Interests of each of the Members, with the amounts that are

42

deemed distributions to each of the Members deemed to be payments to GECC of such Member’s respective obligations under its Backstop Indemnity Obligation.

10.2Third-Party Sale.  If an Event of Default with respect to PTLC or PAG has occurred under any of the Indemnification Agreements which is continuing, GECC will immediately have the right at any time thereafter to cause the Company to Sell to a third party at a price for cash, and upon other terms and conditions, all as determined in good faith by GECC, all or a portion of the Company Sub or all or a portion of the Company Sub’s Partnership Interest sufficient as determined in good faith by GECC to cure the Event of Default (each, a “Third-Party Sale”), in addition to any of its other rights and remedies under this Agreement or the Indemnification Agreements.  The expenses of such Third-Party Sale shall be paid from the gross proceeds of such Third-Party Sale and the net proceeds of such Third- Party Sale shall be available for distribution by the Company in accordance with the provisions of Sections 5.1 and 10.1.  No such Third-Party Sale will Transfer directly or indirectly the Company Sub’s rights as general partner of the Partnership.  Upon the consummation of (a) any Sale of all of the Company Sub or all of the Company Sub’s Partnership Interest, if the Company Sub is then the general partner of the Partnership, the Company Sub’s general partner Partnership Interest shall automatically convert into a limited partner Partnership Interest and, effective immediately prior to such conversion, PTLC’s interest in the Partnership shall automatically convert into a general partner Partnership Interest and (b) any Sale of any portion of the Company Sub’s Partnership Interest at a time when the Company Sub is the general partner of the Partnership, such Sold Partnership Interest shall automatically convert to a limited partner Partnership Interest.

10.3Maturity.  Provided that no Event of Default has occurred under any of the Indemnification Agreements which is continuing, no later than one (1) year prior to the Maturity Date, the Members will meet with GECC at a mutually agreeable time and location to attempt to decide jointly whether to pursue one of the following in order for PTLC and PAG (directly and/or by payment of the Company’s available cash) to pay to GECC all Indemnified Amounts (as that term is defined in the Indemnity Agreements): (a) contributing cash to the Company in the form of additional Capital Contributions to allow the Company to pay to GECC the Indemnified Amounts; (b) pursuing an additional bond or other financing to allow the Company to pay the Indemnified Amounts to GECC (a “Financing”) or (c) pursuing one (1) or more equity offerings by the Company or the Company Sub, either of newly issued Member Interests or of Partnership Interests held by Company Sub, the proceeds of which shall be used to pay to GECC the Indemnified Amounts, and which would include the automatic conversion of the Managing Member’s Partnership Interest effective immediately prior to such sale into a general partner Partnership Interest with respect to any sale of all of the Partnership Interest held by Company Sub if such conversion has not previously occurred (an “Equity Offering”).  If (i) the Members and GECC cannot agree in each Member’s and GECC’s respective sole discretion on the method for paying the Indemnified Amounts to GECC in a reasonable period of time in advance of the Maturity Date, and the Penske Members and PAG have not provided sufficient evidence satisfactory to GECC (in the reasonable discretion of GECC) of the ability and intent of the Penske Members and PAG to pay to GECC the Indemnified Amounts, or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred under any of the Indemnification Agreements which is continuing, then, commencing one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the Maturity Date, upon notice by GECC delivered to the Managing Member no later than one hundred fifty (150) days prior to the Maturity Date (the “Transaction Notice”) GECC will have the right in its sole discretion, absent

43

an agreement in writing among GECC, the Penske Members and PAG (which agreement in writing shall be at the sole discretion of GECC) to another course of action (an “Alternate Transaction”), which shall be to pursue, and to cause the Company and/or the Company Sub to consummate, a Third-Party Sale, Financing or Equity Offering on terms negotiated by GECC in good faith, without any guarantees, pledges or contributions by the other Members or their respective Parent Companies or GECC (or any of their Affiliates); provided that the Members will, upon request by GECC, absent an Alternate Transaction, support a Financing with their own obligations to pay to the same extent the Members are obligated to GECC under the Indemnification Agreements and with collateral to the same extent such collateral supports the obligations to GECC under the Indemnification Agreements.  Upon receipt of the Transaction Notice, promptly and in any event within the immediately succeeding ninety (90)-day period thereafter (or such other period as agreed to by the Members and GECC), the Penske Members will have the opportunity to demonstrate to GECC that the consummation of a Third-Party Sale, Financing or Equity Offering, as applicable, would result in a material disproportionate adverse tax impact on the Penske Members or any of their Parent Companies or PAG compared to the GECC Consolidated Group related to such Members’ Member Interest or Partnership Interest assuming for purposes of this determination that the Former GE Members had remained a party to this Agreement and that the Redemption had not occurred (the “Rebuttal”).  If a Rebuttal is received by GECC, the Penske Members will have the opportunity to propose alternate structures for the Third-Party Sale, Financing or Equity Offering, as applicable, to minimize the effect of such adverse tax impacts (the “Alternative Structure” or “Alternative Structures”) and GECC will use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Penske Members or PAG with devising such Alternative Structure(s), but GECC shall not be obligated to utilize such Alternative Structure(s) if such structures are not reasonably acceptable to GECC.  The Members and GECC hereby agree that in no event will indemnification be required for any potential adverse tax impacts arising in connection with the consummation of a Third-Party Sale, Financing or Equity Offering or Alternative Structure.  For the avoidance of doubt, (I) the opportunity to provide a Rebuttal or propose Alternative Structures by the Penske Members or PAG does not in any way affect or limit the right of GECC to consummate a Third-Party Sale, Financing or Equity Offering pursuant to this Section 10.3, (II) a Third-Party Sale, Financing or Equity Offering contemplated by this Section 10.3 need not be consummated prior to or simultaneously with the payment of the Maturity Obligations due on the Bonds at maturity and (III) nothing in this Section 10.3 or elsewhere will limit GECC’s rights and remedies under any other provision of this Agreement or the Indemnification Agreements.

10.4Backstop Indemnity Obligations and Reinstatement.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Indemnification Agreements to the contrary, PTLC’s and PAG’s respective Backstop Indemnity Obligations shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of any of the funds from the Company to or for the account of GECC is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon any Bankruptcy of any Member or its Affiliates or otherwise. In addition, if at any time following the Indemnification Satisfaction Date any payment to GECC pursuant to this Article 10 or under the Backstop Indemnity Obligations is rescinded or must be restored or returned for any reason, the obligations of the Company to make the payments required under this Article 10 shall be reinstated or continue in full force and effect until those payments are restored to GECC and until that date, the provisions of Section 5.1 and 6.3(d), as in effect on the date hereof, shall be

44

reinstated or continue in full force and effect as if the Indemnification Satisfaction Date had not occurred.

10.5Memco and GECC.  Each of the Members and the Company acknowledge and agree that (a) GECC is a third party beneficiary of the GE Protection Provisions and (b) Memco has agreed to take any actions requested by GECC to enforce the provisions of this Article 10 and the other GE Protective Provisions.

ARTICLE 11

LIABILITY OF MEMBERS, MEMCO AND GECC

11.1Liability of Members, Memco and GECC.

(b)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any duty otherwise existing at Law or in equity, none of the Non-Managing Members, Memco and GECC, will, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, including Section 18-1101(d) of the Act, owe any fiduciary duties to the Company, the other Members or any other Person bound by this Agreement as long as the Non-Managing Members, Memco and GECC act, subject to their rights under Subsection 11.1(d), in accordance with the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing, including good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement.  The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they expand or restrict or eliminate the duties and liabilities of any Non-Managing Member, Memco or GECC otherwise existing at Law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to modify to that extent the other duties and liabilities of the Non-Managing Members, Memco or GECC.

(c)Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, whenever in this Agreement a Non-Managing Member, Memco or GECC is permitted or required to take any action or to make a decision, the Non-Managing Member, Memco or GECC may take the action or make the decision in its sole discretion, and the Non-Managing Member, Memco and GECC may consider, and make its determination based on, the interests and factors as it desires.
