13. Distributions. Distributions shall be made to the Member at the times and in the aggregate amounts determined by the Member. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not make a distribution to the Member on account of its interest in the Company if such distribution would violate the Act or other applicable law.
14. Management. In accordance with Section 18-402 of the Act, management of the Company shall be vested in the Member.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) the Member is authorized to execute and deliver any document on behalf of the Company and to cause the Company to perform its obligations thereunder without any vote or consent of any other person, and any such document executed by the Member on behalf of the Company shall be deemed to be duly authorized for all purposes and (ii) the Member has the authority to bind the Company.
15. Officers.
(a) Number. The Company may have officers (each, an “Officer”), which shall be chosen by the Member from time to time. Any number of offices may be held by the same person. The Member may delegate to any Officer the power to appoint, remove and prescribe the duties of any other Officer provided for in this Section.
(b) Removal. Any Officer may be removed, with or without cause, at any time by the Member.
(c) Resignations. Any Officer may resign at any time by giving written notice of his or her resignation to the Member. Any such resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein, or, if the time is not specified, upon receipt thereof by the Member. Unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.
(d) Compensation. The compensation of the Officers shall be fixed from time to time by the Member. Nothing contained herein shall preclude any Officer from serving the Company, any related person or the Member or its affiliates in any other capacity and receiving proper compensation therefor.
(e) Officers as Agents. The Officers, to the extent of their powers set forth in this Agreement or otherwise vested in them by action of the Member not inconsistent with this Agreement, are agents of the Company for the purpose of the Company’s business, and the actions of the Officers taken in accordance with such powers shall bind the Company.
16. Waiver of Fiduciary Duties. This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create or impose any implied duty (including, without limitation, any fiduciary duty and, for purposes of clarity, any prohibition on usurping opportunities of the Company) otherwise existing at law or in equity on the Member or any affiliate, officer, director, employee or agent of the Member (each of the foregoing, a “Responsible Party”). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and notwithstanding any duty otherwise existing at law or in equity, each of the Company, the Member and any other person or entity that is a party to or is otherwise bound by this Agreement (including, without limitation, (a) the Company in its capacity as a debtor or debtor in possession in a bankruptcy case commenced under 11 U.S.C. (a “Bankruptcy Case”), (b) any successor to the Company in a Bankruptcy Case or otherwise, including, without limitation, a trustee, a litigation trust or estate representative, including, without limitation, a representative under 11 U.S.C. Section 1123(b), and (c) any creditor or committee of creditors or equity holders seeking or obtaining standing to assert claims of the estate in a Bankruptcy Case) (each of the foregoing, a “Bound Party”) hereby expressly waives all duties (including, without limitation, any fiduciary duty) and, for purposes of clarity, any prohibition on usurping opportunities of the Company, that absent such waiver, may be implied at law or in equity or otherwise owed to a Bound Party, and in doing so, recognizes, acknowledges and agrees that the duties and obligations of the Responsible Parties are only as expressly set forth in this Agreement; provided that a Responsible Party shall act in good faith and in a manner that it subjectively believes is in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company.
