     The following special allocations shall be made in the following order:

     (a) Nonrecourse Deductions.Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) deductions attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt, if any, of the Company for each Allocation Year shall be allocated to the Member that bears the economic risk of loss within the meaning of Treas. Reg. 1.704-2(i), and (ii) deductions attributable to Nonrecourse Liabilities of the Company, if any, shall be allocated for each Allocation Year in the same proportion as Profits and Losses for such Allocation Year.

     (b) Minimum Gain Chargeback.Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article III, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Allocation Year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such Allocation Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Allocation 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 Sections 1.704-2(f) (6) and 1.704-2(j) (2) of the Regulations. This Section 3.3(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

     (c) Member Minimum Gain Chargeback.Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(i) (4) of the Regulations, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article III, if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt during any Allocation Year, each Member

- 16 -

who has a share of the Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i) (5) of the Regulations, shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such Allocation Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Allocation Years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in 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 Sections 1.704-2(i) (4) and 1.704-2(j) (2) of the Regulations. This Section 3.3(b) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Section 1.704-2(i) (4) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

     (d) Qualified Income Offset.In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6) of the Regulations, items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of the Member as quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 3.3(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that the Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Article III have been tentatively made as if this Section 3.3 (c) were not in the Agreement.

     (d) Gross Income Allocation.In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Allocation Year which is in excess of the sum of 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 Section 3.3(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 III have been made as if Section 3.3(c) and this Section 3.3(d) were not in the Agreement.

     3.4 Curative Allocations.

     The allocations set forth in Sections 3.3(a), 3.3(b), 3.3(c) and 3.3(d) (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 3.4. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article III (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Tax Matters Member shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner it determines

- 17 -

appropriate 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 Sections 3.1 and 3.2.

     3.5 Other Allocation Rules.

     (a) For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses, or any other items allocable to any period, Profits, Losses and any such other items shall be determined on a daily, monthly or other basis, as determined by the Tax Matters Member using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Regulations thereunder; provided, however, in the event there is a distribution by Ref-Fuel Company of its Interest pursuant to the Redemption, such allocation for such Allocation Year shall be based on the number of months preceding and succeeding such distribution in such Allocation Year, and if such distribution occurs other than on the first day of a month, such month shall be pro-rated based on the number of days preceding and including the date of the distribution and the number of days following the distribution, excluding, for this purpose, any income, gain, loss or deduction resulting from any transactions occurring in such month outside the ordinary course of business.

     (b) The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Article III and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article III in reporting their shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

     (c) Solely for purposes of determining a Member’s proportionate share of the “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Company within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a) (3), the Members’ interests in Company Profits are in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

     (d) To the extent permitted by Section 1.704-2(h) (3) of the Regulations, the Tax Matters Member shall endeavor to treat distributions of cash as having been made from the proceeds of a Nonrecourse Liability or a Member Nonrecourse Debt only to the extent that such distributions would cause or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for any Member.

     3.6 Tax Allocations; Code Section 704(c).

     (a) Except as otherwise required by Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder, each item of Company income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated for tax purposes, to the extent possible, in the same manner as provided in this Article III other than this Section 3.6.

- 18 -

     (b) In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the 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 (computed in accordance with the definition of Gross Asset Value).

     In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to the definition of Gross Asset Value, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such asset shall, as appropriate, take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in a manner consistent with Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder.

     Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Tax Matters Member as provided in Section 8.3 in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement.

     (c) Allocations pursuant to this Section 3.6 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.

     (a) In the event any claim is made by a third party against any Manager, any Member, the Liquidator, or any stockholder, officer, member, director, agent, employee, successor or assign of any of them, with respect to an actual or potential liability for which any such Person is otherwise entitled to be indemnified under any provisions of Section 7.1(a), 7.1(b) and 12.9(c), and any such Person wishes to be indemnified with respect thereto, such Person shall observe the procedures set forth below in Section 7.2.

     (b) A party entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article VII (an“Indemnitee”)shall give the party obligated to provide indemnification (the“Indemnitor”)notice in writing of any claim or other matter as to which indemnification will be sought (an“Indemnified Matter”)as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the Indemnitee becomes aware of the Indemnified Matter and shall thereafter keep the Indemnitor reasonably informed with respect thereto; provided that failure of the Indemnitee to give the Indemnitor prompt notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnitor shall be entitled to assume the defense or handling of such Indemnified Matter by giving written notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnitee within 30 days after receipt of the notice, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee at the Indemnitor’s own expense, and the Indemnitee shall

- 30 -

cooperate with the Indemnitor, at the Indemnitor’s expense, in any such action.

As long as the Indemnitor is contesting any such Indemnified Matter in good faith and on a timely basis, the Indemnitee shall not pay or settle any claims relating to the Indemnified Matter. Notwithstanding the assumption by the Indemnitor of the defense or handling of any Indemnified Matter as provided in this Section 7.2 (b), the Indemnitor shall thereafter consult with the Indemnitee upon its reasonable request from time to time with respect to such Indemnified Matter. The Indemnitee shall be permitted to join in the defense or handling of such Indemnified Matter and to employ counsel at its own expense; provided, however, that if the defendants or potential defendants or obligors in connection with any Indemnified Matter shall include both an Indemnitor and an Indemnitee, and such Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that counsel selected by the Indemnitor has a conflict of interest because of the availability of different or additional defenses to such Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall have the right to select separate counsel to participate in the defense or handling of such Indemnified Matter on its behalf, the reasonable fees and expenses of which shall be borne by the Indemnitor.

     (c) If the Indemnitor shall fail to notify the Indemnitee of its desire to assume the defense or handling of any such Indemnified Matter within the prescribed period of time, or shall notify the Indemnitee that it will not assume the defense or handling of any such Indemnified Matter, then the Indemnitee may assume the defense or handling of any such Indemnified Matter, in which event it may do so in such manner as it may deem appropriate, and the Indemnitor shall be bound by any determinations made in connection with such Indemnified Matter or any settlement thereof effected by the Indemnitee, unless the Indemnitor shall, within 20 days after notice of the proposed terms of such determination or settlement, object to such determination or settlement, as the case may be, and agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses of the Indemnitee in connection with the Indemnitee’s defense of such Indemnified Matter, in which case the Indemnitor shall not be bound by any such determination or settlement effected without its consent, so long as the Indemnitor promptly pays such costs and expenses as incurred by the Indemnitee. The failure or election of the Indemnitor to assume the defense or handling of any such Indemnified Matter shall not be deemed a concession that it is required to indemnify the Indemnitee for the subject matter of such Indemnified Matter. The Indemnitor shall be permitted to join in the defense or handling of such Indemnified Matter and to employ counsel at its own expense.

     (d) Amounts payable by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee in respect of any Indemnified Matter for which such party is entitled to indemnification hereunder shall accrue interest at the prime rate (as set forth from time to time in the Wall Street Journal)
