ARTICLE VIII.

ALLOCATIONS

Section 8.1Net Profit and Net Loss Allocations. Except as otherwise provided inSection 8.2, Net Profit or Net Loss, as the case may be, shall be allocated for the Accounting Period in which the Net Profit and Net Loss was recognized as follows: Net Profit and Net Loss (and any items thereof) for any taxable year shall be allocated among the Members in such manner that, as of the end of such taxable year, the sum of (a) the Capital Account of each Member, (b) such Member’s share of Minimum Gain and (c) such Member’s Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain shall be equal to the respective net amounts which would be distributed to them under this Agreement, determined as if the Company were to (i) liquidate the assets of the Company for an amount equal to their Gross Asset Value and (ii) distribute the proceeds of liquidation pursuant toSection 12.2.

Section 8.2Restrictions on Allocations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (including the allocations set forth inSection 8.1) to the contrary, the following special allocations shall be made:

(a)Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any Accounting Period shall be allocated to the Members in the same ratio as other partnership items underSection 8.1 during such Accounting Period.

(b)Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Accounting Period shall be allocated 100% to the Member that bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-2(i). If more than one Member bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to a Member Nonrecourse Debt, Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable thereto shall be allocated between or among such Members in accordance with the ratios in which they share such Economic Risk of Loss. ThisSection 8.2(b) is intended to comply with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.7042(i) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c)Company Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain during any Accounting Period, each Member shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such Accounting Period (and, if necessary, subsequent Accounting Periods) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulations Sections1.704-2(f)(6), (g)(2) and (j)(2)(i). For purposes of thisSection 8.2, each Member’s Capital Account shall be determined, and the allocation of income or gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to thisArticle VIII with respect to such Accounting Period. ThisSection 8.2(c) is intended to comply with the partner minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(d)Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement (other thanSection 8.2(c)above), if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during any Accounting Period, any Member with a share of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain at the beginning of such Accounting Period shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such Accounting Period (and, if necessary, subsequent Accounting Periods) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-2(i)(4) and (j)(2)(ii). For purposes of thisSection 8.2, each Member’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income and gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to thisArticle VIII, other thanSection 8.2(c) above, with respect to such Accounting Period. ThisSection 8.2(d) is intended to comply with the partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(e)Qualified Income Offset. Except as provided inSection 8.2(c) andSection 8.2(d) above, in the event any Member unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Company income and gain shall be allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by such Treasury Regulation, the deficit balance, if any, in its Adjusted Capital Account created by such adjustment, allocation or distribution as quickly as possible unless such deficit balance is otherwise eliminated pursuant toSection 8.2(c) orSection 8.2(d). ThisSection 8.2(e) is intended to constitute a qualified income offset described in Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(f)Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account at the end of any Accounting Period, such Member shall be allocated items of Company gross income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible;provided, however, that an allocation pursuant to thisSection 8.2(f) shall be made only if and tothe extent that such Member would have a deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account after all other allocations provided in thisSection 8.2 (other thanSection 8.2(e)) have been tentatively made as ifSection 8.2(e) and thisSection 8.2(f) were not in this Agreement.

(g)Regulatory Allocations. The allocations set forth in thisSection 8.2 (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury 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 thisSection 8.2(g). Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of thisArticle VIII (other than the Regulatory Allocations), but subject to the Code and the Treasury Regulations, the Managing Member shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner it determines 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 this Agreement. In exercising its discretion under thisSection 8.2(g), the Managing Member shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made.

Section 8.3Income Tax Allocations.

(a) Except as provided in thisSection 8.3, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as such items are allocated for book purposes underSection 8.1 andSection 8.2.

(b) In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and applicable Treasury Regulations, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the Company (or any predecessor thereto) that has a Gross Asset Value that is different from its adjusted tax basis 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 (or any predecessor thereto) for U.S. federal income tax purposes and the fair market value of such property for U.S. federal income tax purposes at the time of contribution. If the Gross Asset Value

of any Company property is adjusted in accordance with clause (c) or (d) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, then subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such property for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value as provided in Code Section 704(c) and the related Treasury Regulations. The allocations described in thisSection 8.3 shall be made using any method permitted under Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-3 as determined by the Managing Member.

(c) If any deductions for depreciation or cost recovery are recaptured as ordinary income upon the Transfer of Company assets, the ordinary income character of the gain from such Transfer shall be allocated among the Members in the same ratio as the deductions giving rise to such ordinary character were allocated.

ARTICLE IX.

The Managing Member is authorized to withhold from distributions, or with respect to allocations, to the Members and to pay over to any federal, foreign, state or local government any amounts required to be so withheld or paid pursuant to the Code or any provision of any other federal, foreign, state or local law or treaty and shall allocate the burden of such amounts to those Members with respect to which such amounts are specifically attributable, as determined by the Managing

DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION

Section 13.1Dissolving Events. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs wound up in the manner hereinafter provided upon the happening of any of the following events:

(a) the Members vote or agree in writing to dissolve the Company;

(b) any event which under applicable law would cause the dissolution of the Company;provided, that unless required by law, the Company shall not be wound up as a result of any such event and the business of the Company shall continue.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the death, retirement, resignation, expulsion, bankruptcy or dissolution of any Member or the occurrence of any other event that terminates the continued membership of any Member in the Company under the Delaware Act shall not, in and of itself, cause the dissolution of the Company. In such event, the remaining Member(s) shall continue the business of the Company without dissolution.

Section 13.2Liquidation. Upon the dissolution of the Company, unless an election to continue the Company is made pursuant toSection 13.1, the business and affairs of the Company shall be wound up, and the Managing Member (or its designee) will serve as liquidator (the “Liquidator”) of the Company.

(a) Except as expressly provided in thisArticle XIII, the Liquidator will have and may exercise, without further authorization or consent of any of the parties hereto, all of the powers conferred upon the Managing Member and the Members under the terms of this Agreement, to the extent necessary or desirable in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator to carry out the duties and functions of the Liquidator hereunder for and during such period of time as will be required in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator to complete the winding up and liquidation of the Company as provided for herein.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in thisArticle XIII (includingSection 13.4 below), the Liquidator will liquidate the assets of the Company and apply and distribute the net proceeds of such liquidation in the following manner and order:

(i) first, net proceeds of the liquidation will be applied and distributed to creditors in satisfaction of indebtedness (other than any loans or advances that may have been made by any of the Members to the Company), whether by payment or placing in escrow a reserve of cash or other assets of the Company for the payment of creditors, certain administrative expenses (including payment of the expenses of the terminating transactions such as brokerage commissions, legal fees, accounting fees and closing costs) and contingent liabilities in an amount reasonably determined by the Liquidator to be appropriate for such purposes; and

(ii) second, net proceeds of the liquidation will be applied to the payment of outstanding loans that may have been made by any of the Members to the Company; and

(iii) third, remaining net proceeds of the liquidation shall be distributed to Members in accordance withSection 9.1.

provided, that no payment or distribution in any of the foregoing categories shall be made until allpayments in each prior category shall have been made in full;provided, further, that if the payments due to be made in any of the foregoing categories exceed the remaining proceeds available for such purpose, such payments shall be made to the Persons entitled to receive the same pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts due to them.

Section 13.3Reserves. After all of the assets of the Company have been distributed, the Company will terminate in accordance withSection 13.5. If at any time thereafter any funds in any cash reserve fund referred to inSection 13.2(b) are released because the need for such cash reserve fund has ended, such funds will be distributed to the Members in the same manner as if such distribution had been made pursuant toSection 13.2(b).

Section 13.4Distribution In Kind. Notwithstanding the provisions ofSection 13.2 that require the liquidation of the assets of the Company, if, upon the dissolution of the Company, the Liquidator determines that an immediate sale of part or all of the Company’s assets would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Members, the Liquidator may, in good faith, defer for a time the liquidation of any assets except those necessary to satisfy liabilities of the Company (other than the Company’s liabilities to its Members). The Liquidator may distribute to the Members, in lieu of cash, such Company assets as the Liquidator deems not suitable for liquidation. Any distributions in kind will be subject to such conditions relating to the disposition and management thereof as the Liquidator reasonably deems equitable. Furthermore, to the extent that there is a distribution of Company property pursuant toSection 13.2 in accordance with thisSection 13.4, the ratio of cash tonon-cash distributions shall be identical for each Member, unless any Member elects, in its sole discretion, to take a greater portion of its distribution innon-cash Company property. The Liquidator will value any property distributed in kind based upon such property’s fair market value as determined using such method of valuation as the Liquidator and the Members receiving any suchin-kind distribution agree upon.

Section 13.5Termination. The Company shall terminate when the winding up of the Company’s affairs has been completed, all of the assets of the Company have been distributed and the Certificate has been canceled, all in accordance with the Delaware Act.

Section 14.3Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the Members with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreement or understanding among any of them with respect to such subject matter, including, from and after the Effective Date only, the Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement.

Section 14.4Construction. Whenever the context requires, the gender of all words used in this Agreement includes the masculine, feminine and neuter.

The Members have each fully participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity, question of intent or question of interpretation arises, this Agreement must be construed as if drafted jointly, and there must not be any presumption, inference or conclusion drawn against either Member by virtue of the fact that its Representatives have authored this Agreement or any of its terms.

Each Member agrees that it shall bring any action or proceeding in respect of any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement, whether in tort or contract or at law or in equity, exclusively in any U.S. federal or state court in the State of Delaware and (a) irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts, (b) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in such courts, (c) waives any objection that such courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over it and (d) agrees that service of process upon it may be effected by mailing a copy thereof postage prepaid, registered or certified with return receipt requested at the address specified inSection 14.1. The foregoing consents to jurisdiction and service of process shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of Delaware for any purpose except as provided herein and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the Members.

Section 14.9Waiver Generally. Waiver by the Managing Member or any other Member of any breach or default by any other Member of any of the terms of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any other breach or default, whether similar to or different from the breach or default waived. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be implied from any course of dealing between the Managing Member and any other Member or otherwise between the Members hereto or from any failure by the Managing Member or any other Member to assert its, his or her rights hereunder on any occasion or series of occasions. No single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
