Accordingly, such Capital Account shall initially be credited with the initial capital contribution of the Interest Holder and thereafter shall be increased by (i) any cash or the fair market value of any property contributed by such Interest Holder (net of any liabilities assumed by the Company or to which the contributed property is subject) and (ii) the amount of all net income (whether or not exempt from tax) and gain allocated to such Interest Holder hereunder, and decreased by (i) the amount of all net losses allocated to such Interest Holder hereunder (including expenditures described in section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”), or treated as such an expenditure by reason of Treas. Reg. § 1.704-I(b)(2)(iv)(i)) and (ii) the amount of cash, and the fair market value of property (net of any liabilities assumed by such Interest Holder or to which the distributed property is subject), distributed to such Interest Holder pursuant toSections 8 and14.

Upon

- 3 -

reasonable request of a Member, such books and records shall be open to the inspection and examination by such Member in person or by such Member’s duly authorized representatives during normal business hours and may be copied at such Member’s expense.

4.2 Fiscal Year.The fiscal year of the Company shall be the calendar year (“Fiscal Year”).

6. ALLOCATION OF NET INCOME AND NET LOSS.

6.1 Net Income and Net Loss.

(a)Except as otherwise provided herein, the net income and net loss of the Company for each Fiscal Year, computed without regard to net gains resulting from the sale or other disposition of any hospital owned by the Company, shall be allocated to the Interest Holders in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Percentage Interest” shall mean the percentage that the number of Units owned by an Interest Holder bears to the aggregate number of Units owned by all of the Interest Holders.

(b)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if an Interest Holder has a deficit balance in such Interest Holder’s Capital Account (excluding from such Interest Holder’s deficit Capital Account any amount which such Interest Holder is obligated to restore in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(c), as well as any amount such Interest Holder is treated as obligated to restore under Treas. Reg. §§ 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5)) and unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), then such Interest Holder will be allocated items of income and gain in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balance in such Interest Holder’s Capital Account as quickly as possible. If there is an allocation to an Interest Holder pursuant to thisSection 6.1(b), then future allocations of net income pursuant to Section 6.1 shall be adjusted so that those Interest Holders who were allocated less income, or a greater amount of loss, by reason of the allocation made pursuant to thisSection 6.1(b), shall be allocated additional net income in an equal amount. It is the intention of the parties that the provisions of thisSection 6.1(b) constitute a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), and such provisions shall be so construed.

(c)If there is a net decrease in the Company’s Minimum Gain (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(b)(2)) or Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(3)) during any Fiscal Year, each Interest Holder shall be allocated, before any other allocations hereunder, items of income and gain for such Fiscal Year

- 4 -

(and subsequent Fiscal Years, if necessary), in an amount equal to such Interest Holder’s share (determined in accordance with Treas. Reg. §§ 1.704-2(g) and 1,704-2(i)(5), as applicable) of the net decrease in the Company’s Minimum Gain or Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, as applicable, for such Fiscal Year; provided, however, that no such allocation shall be required if any of the exceptions set forth in Treas. Reg. §§ 1.704-2(f) or 1.704-2(i)(4) apply. It is the intention of the parties that this provision constitute a “minimum gain chargeback” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §§ 1.704-2(f) and 1.704-2(i)(4), and this provision shall be so construed.

(d)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company’s partner nonrecourse deductions (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(2)) shall be allocated solely to the Interest Holder who has the economic risk of loss with respect to the partner nonrecourse liability related thereto in accordance with the provisions of Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(l).

(e)Notwithstanding the provisions ofSection 6.1(a), no net losses shall be allocated to an Interest Holder if such allocation would result in such Interest Holder having a deficit balance in such Interest Holder’s Capital Account (excluding from such Interest Holder’s deficit Capital Account any amount such Interest Holder is obligated to restore in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(c), as well as any amount such Interest Holder is treated as obligated to restore under Treas. Reg. §§ 1.704-2(g)(l) and 1.704-2(i)(5)). In such case, the net loss that would have been allocated to such Interest Holder shall be allocated to the other Interest Holders to whom such loss can be allocated without violation of the provisions of thisSection 6.1(e) in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests among themselves.

(f)Notwithstanding the provisions ofSection 6.1(a), to the extent losses are allocated to the Interest Holders by virtue ofSection 6.1(e), the net income of the Company thereafter recognized shall be allocated to such Interest Holders (in proportion to the losses previously allocated to them pursuant toSection 6.1(e)) until such time as the net income of the Company allocated to them pursuant to thisSection 6.1(f) equals the net losses allocated to them pursuant toSection 6.1(e).

(g)For Federal, state and local income tax purposes only, with respect to any assets contributed by an Interest Holder to the Company (“Contributed Assets”) which have an agreed fair market value on the date of their contribution which differs from the Interest Holder’s adjusted basis as of the date of contribution, the allocation of depreciation and gain or loss with respect to such Contributed Assets shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of section 704(c) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder using the method selected by the Board. For purposes of this Agreement, an asset shall be deemed a Contributed Asset if it has a basis determined, in whole or in part, by reference to the basis of a Contributed Asset (including an asset previously deemed to be a Contributed Asset pursuant to this sentence). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the gain from the sale of any Contributed Asset is being reported on the installment method for income tax purposes, then the total amount of gain which is to be recognized by each of the Interest Holders in accordance with the above provision in all taxable years shall be computed and the amount of gain to be recognized by each of the Interest Holders in each taxable year shall be in proportion to the total gain to be recognized by each of the Interest Holders in all taxable years.

- 5 -

6.2 Allocation of Excess Non recourse Liabilities. For purposes of section 752 of the Code and the regulations thereunder, the excess nonrecourse liabilities of the Company (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.752-3(a)(3)), if any, shall be allocated to the Interest Holders as follows:

(a)First, such excess nonrecourse liabilities shall be allocated to the Interest Holders up to the amount of built-in gain allocable to such Interest Holders on section 704(c) property (as defined in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-3(a)(3(ii)) or property for which reverse section 704(c) allocations are applicable (as described in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-3(a)(6)(i)) where such property is subject to the nonrecourse liability, to the extent such gain exceeds the gain described in Treas. Reg. § 1.752-3(a)(2).

(b)Second, the balance of such excess nonrecourse liabilities, if any, shall be allocated to the Interest Holders in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

6.3 Allocations in Event of Transfer, Admission of New Member, Etc. In the event of (i) the transfer of all or any part of an Interest Holder’s Units (in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement), (ii) the admission of a new Member or (iii) disproportionate capital contributions, at any time other than at the end of a Fiscal Year, the transferring Interest Holder’s, new Member’s or Interest Holders’ shares of the Company’s income, gain, loss, deductions and credits allocable to such Units, as computed both for accounting purposes and for Federal income tax purposes, shall be allocated between the transferor Interest Holder and the transferee Interest Holder (or Interest Holders), the new Member and the other Interest Holders, or among the Interest Holders, as the case may be, in the same ratio as the number of days in such Fiscal Year before and after the date of such transfer, admission or disproportionate capital contributions; provided, however, that the Board shall have the option to treat the periods before and after the date of such transfer, admission or disproportionate capital contributions as separate Fiscal Years and allocate the Company’s net income, gain, net loss, deductions and credits for each of such deemed separate Fiscal Years in accordance with the Interest Holders’ respective interests in the Company for such deemed separate Fiscal Years. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company uses the cash receipts and disbursements method of accounting, the Company’s “allocable cash basis items,” as that term is used in section 706(d)(2)(B) of the Code, shall be allocated as required by section 706(d)(2) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

7. DISTRIBUTIVE SHARESAND FEDERAL INCOME TAX ELECTIONS.

7.1 Distributive Shares. For purposes of Subchapter K of the Code, the distributive shares of the Interest Holders of each item of Company taxable income, gains, losses, deductions or credits for any Fiscal Year shall be in the same proportions as their respective shares of the net income or net loss of the Company allocated to them pursuant toSection 6.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent not inconsistent with the allocation of gain provided for inSection 6.1, gain recognized by the Company which represents recapture of depreciation or cost recovery deductions for Federal income tax purposes shall be allocated in the manner provided in Treas. Reg. § 1.1245-1(e) (regardless of whether real property or personal property is involved).

- 6 -

7.2 Elections. The election permitted to be made by section 754 of the Code, and any other elections required or permitted to be made by the Company under the Code, shall be made in such a manner as shall be determined by the Board.

7.3 Partnership Tax Treatment. It is the intention of the Members that the Company be treated as a partnership for Federal, state and local income tax purposes, and the Interest Holders shall not take any position or make any election, in a tax return or otherwise, inconsistent with such treatment.

7.4 Tax Matters Partner.

(a)The tax matters partner (“TMP”) for the Company shall be Massillon Health System, LLC so long as it is a Member. The TMP shall have such authority as is granted a TMP under the Code.

(b)The TMP shall employ experienced tax counsel to represent the Company in connection with any audit or investigation of the Company by the Internal Revenue Service and in connection with all subsequent administrative and judicial proceedings arising out of such audit. The fees and expenses of such counsel, as well as all other expenses incurred by the TMP in serving as the TMP, shall be a Company expense and shall be paid by the Company.

(c)The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the TMP against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by the TMP in any civil, criminal or investigative proceeding in which the TMP is involved or threatened to be involved by reason of it being the TMP, provided that the TMP acted in good faith, within what the TMP reasonably believed to be the scope of the TMP’s authority and for a purpose which the TMP reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company or the Interest Holders. The TMP shall not be indemnified under this provision against any liability to the Company or its Interest Holders to which the TMP would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misconduct or gross negligence in its duties involved in acting as TMP.

11.2 Indemnification.

(a)To the fullest extent permitted by the Act, the Company shall indemnify each director or officer of the Company against reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, taxes, penalties, fines (including any excise tax assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan) and amounts paid in settlement (collectively “Liability”), incurred by such person in connection with defending any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and whether formal or informal) to which such person is, or is threatened to be made, a party because such person is or was a director or officer of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, partner, member, employee or agent of another domestic or foreign corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, provided that the director or officer has met the standard of conduct described inSection 11.1. A director or officer shall be considered to be serving an employee benefit plan at the Company’s request if such person’s duties to the Company also impose duties on or otherwise involve services by such person to the plan or to participants in or beneficiaries of the plan.

- 11 -

(b)To the fullest extent authorized or permitted by the Act, the Company shall pay or reimburse reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer who is a party to a proceeding in advance of final disposition of such proceeding if:

(2)The director or officer furnishes the Company a written undertaking, executed personally or on the director’s or officer’s behalf, to repay the advance if it is ultimately determined that the director or officer did not meet the standard of conduct. Such undertaking shall be an unlimited general obligation of the director or officer, but shall not be required to be secured and may be accepted without reference to financial ability to make repayment; and

(3)A determination is made that the facts then known to those making the determination would not preclude indemnification under the provisions of thisSection 11.2.

(c)The indemnification against Liability and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, thisSection 11.2 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement may be entitled under any agreement, action of the Members or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in their official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office of the Company, shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Company, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.
