were satisfied in cash in accordance with their terms (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the Gross Asset Value of the assets securing such liability), all Units become Vested Units and all remaining or resulting cash was distributed, in accordance withArticle 3, to the Members immediately after making such allocation,minus (ii) such Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain and Member Minimum Gain, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets, and the amount any such Member is treated as obligated to contribute to the Company, computed immediately after the hypothetical sale of assets.

(b)Special Allocations.

(i) Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year or other taxable period shall be specially allocated to the Members on apro rata basis, in accordance with the number of Series M Units and Series Z Units owned by each Member as of the last day of such Fiscal Year or other taxable period. The amount of Nonrecourse Deductions for a Fiscal Year or other taxable period shall equal the excess, if any, of the net increase, if any, in the amount of Company Minimum Gain during that Fiscal Year or other taxable period over the aggregate amount of any distributions during that Fiscal Year or other taxable period of proceeds of a nonrecourse liability that are allocable to an increase in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with the provisions of Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-2(d).

(ii) Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year or other taxable period shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears 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 for such Member Nonrecourse Debt, the Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated among the Members according to the ratio in which they bear the economic risk of loss. ThisSection 4.2(b)(ii) is intended to comply with the provisions of Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-2(i) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Fiscal Year or other taxable period (or if there was a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain for a prior Fiscal Year or other taxable period and the Company did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain during prior periods to allocate among the Members under thisSection 4.2(b)(iii)), each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such Fiscal Year or other taxable period in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during such year (as determined pursuant to Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-2(g)(2)). ThisSection 4.2(b)(iii) is intended to constitute a minimum gain chargeback under Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iv) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement exceptSection 4.2(b)(iii), if there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain during any Fiscal Year or other taxable period (or if there was a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain for a prior Fiscal Year or other taxable period and the Company did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain during prior periods to allocate among the Members under thisSection 4.2(b)(iv)), each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain (as determined pursuant to Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-2(i)(4)). ThisSection 4.2(b)(iv) is intended to constitute a partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback under Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(v) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary exceptSection 4.2(b)(i) andSection 4.2(b)(ii), no Losses or other items of loss or expense shall be allocated to any Member to the extent that such allocation would cause such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit (or increase any existing Adjusted Capital Account Deficit) at the end of such Fiscal Year or other taxable period. All Losses and other items of loss and expense in excess of the limitation set forth in thisSection 4.2(b)(v) shall be allocated to the Members who do not have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit in proportion to their relative positive Capital Accounts but only to the extent that such Losses and other items of loss and expense do not cause any such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit.

(vi) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary exceptSection 4.2(b)(iii) andSection 4.2(b)(iv), in the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustment, allocation or distribution described in paragraph (4), (5) or (6) of Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), items of income and gain (consisting of apro rata portion of each item of income, including gross income, and gain for the Fiscal Year or other taxable period) shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate any Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of that Member as quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to thisSection 4.2(b)(vi) 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 thisSection 4.2 have been tentatively made as if thisSection 4.2(b)(vi) were not in this Agreement. ThisSection 4.2(b)(vi) is intended to constitute a qualified income offset under Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(vii) If any Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account at the end of any Fiscal Year or other taxable period that is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount that such Member is obligated to restore and (ii) the amount that the Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentence of Treasury RegulationsSections 1.704-2(g)(1) and (i)(5), that Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain and Simulated Gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to thisSection 4.2(b)(vii) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit balance in its Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in thisSection 4.2 have been made as ifSection 4.2(b)(vi) and thisSection 4.2(b)(vii) were not in this Agreement.

(viii) To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Sections 734(b) or 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as a result of a distribution to any Member in complete liquidation of such Member’s 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 item of gain or loss shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) if such section applies or to the Member to whom such distribution was made if Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.

(ix) Simulated Depletion for each Depletable Property, and Simulated Loss for Depletable Property upon the disposition of such Depletable Property, shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their shares of Simulated Basis in such Depletable Property.

(x) The allocations set forth inSections 4.2(b)(i) through4.2(b)(ix) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Treasury RegulationsSections 1.704-1(b) and1.704-2. Notwithstanding any other provision of thisSection 4.2 (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Regulatory Allocations (and anticipated future Regulatory Allocations) shall be taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocation of other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Member should be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred. ThisSection 4.2(b)(x) is intended to minimize to the extent possible and to the extent necessary any economic distortions that may result from application of the Regulatory Allocations and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(xi) Items of income, gain, loss, expense or credit resulting from a Covered Audit Adjustment shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Partnership Tax Audit Rules.

(c)Allocations for Tax Purposes in General.

(i) Except as otherwise provided in thisSection 4.2(c) orSection 4.2(d), each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as such item is allocated underSections 4.2(a) and4.2(b).

(ii) In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (including the Treasury Regulations applying the principles of Code Section 704(c) to changes in Gross Asset Values),items of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any Company property having a Gross Asset Value that differs from such property’s adjusted U.S. federal income tax basis shall, solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes, be allocated among the Members to account for any such difference using the “remedial method” under Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-3(d) or such other method or methods as determined by the Manager to be appropriate and in accordance with the applicable Treasury Regulations.

(iii) Any (i) recapture of depreciation or any other item of deduction shall be allocated, in accordance with Treasury RegulationsSections 1.1245-1(e) and1.1254-5, to the Members who received the benefit of such deductions, and (ii) recapture of credits shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with applicable law.

(iv) Allocations pursuant to thisSection 4.2(c) are solely for purposes of U.S. 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.

(v) If, as a result of an exercise of a noncompensatory option to acquire an interest in the Company, a Capital Account reallocation is required under Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(s)(3), the Company shall make corrective allocations pursuant to Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-1(b)(4)(x).

(d)Income Tax Allocations with Respect to Depletable Properties.

(i) Cost and percentage depletion deductions with respect to any Depletable Property shall be computed separately by the Members rather than the Company. For purposes of such computations, the federal income tax basis of each Depletable Property shall be allocated to each Member in accordance with such Member’s Capital Interest Percentage as of the time such Depletable Property is acquired by the Company (and any additions to such U.S. federal income tax basis resulting from expenditures required to be capitalized in such basis shall be allocated among the Members in a manner designed to cause the Members’ proportionate shares of such adjusted U.S. federal income tax basis to be in accordance with their Capital Interest Percentages as determined at the time of any such additions), and shall be reallocated among the Members in accordance with the Members’ Capital Interest Percentages as determined immediately following the occurrence of an event giving rise to an adjustment to the Gross Asset Values of the Company’s Depletable Properties pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of Gross Asset Value. The Company shall inform each Member of such Member’s allocable share of the federal income tax basis of each Depletable Property promptly following the acquisition of such Depletable Property by the Company, any adjustment resulting from expenditures required to be capitalized in such basis, and any reallocation of such basis as provided in the previous sentence.

(ii) For purposes of the separate computation of gain or loss by each Member on the taxable disposition of Depletable Property, the amount realized from such disposition shall be allocated (i) first, to the Members in an amount equal to the Simulated Basis in such Depletable Property in proportion to their allocable shares thereof and (ii) second, any remaining amount realized shall be allocated consistent with the allocation of Simulated Gains.

(iii) The allocations described in thisSection 4.2(d) are intended to be applied in accordance with the Members’ “interests in partnership capital” under Code Section 613A(c)(7)(D);provided that the Members understand and agree that the Manager may authorize special allocations of federal income tax basis, income, gain, deduction or loss, as computed for federal income tax purposes, in order to eliminate differences between Simulated Basis and adjusted federal income tax basis with respect to Depletable Properties, in such manner as determined consistent with the principles outlined inSection 4.2(c)(ii). The provisions of thisSection 4.2(d)(iii) and the other provisions of this Agreement relating to allocations under Code Section 613A(c)(7)(D) are intended to comply with Treasury RegulationsSection 1.704-1(b)(4)(v) and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations.

(iv) Each Member, with the assistance of the Company, shall separately keep records of its share of the adjusted tax basis in each Depletable Property, adjust such share of the adjusted tax basis for any cost or percentage depletion allowable with respect to such property and use such adjusted tax basis in the computation of its cost depletion or in the computation of its gain or loss on the disposition of such property by the Company. Upon the reasonable request of

the Company, each Member shall advise the Company of its adjusted tax basis in each Depletable Property and any depletion computed with respect thereto, both as computed in accordance with the provisions of this subsection for purposes of allowing the Company to make adjustments to the tax basis of its assets as a result of certain transfers of interests in the Company or distributions by the Company. The Company may rely on such information and, if it is not provided by the Member, may make such reasonable assumptions as it shall determine with respect thereto.

(e)Other Allocation Rules.

(i) The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by thisSection 4.2 and the economic impact of the allocations on the amounts receivable by them under this Agreement. The Members hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of thisSection 4.2 in reporting their share of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

(ii) The provisions regarding the establishment and maintenance for each Member of a Capital Account as provided bySection 7.1(b) and the allocations set forth inSections 4.2(a),4.2(b),4.2(c) and4.2(d) are intended to comply with the Treasury Regulations and to reflect the intended economic entitlement of the Members. If the Manager determines, in its sole discretion, that the application of the provisions inSections 7.1(b),4.2(a),4.2(b),4.2(c) or4.2(d) would result innon-compliance with the Treasury Regulations or would be inconsistent with the intended economic entitlement of the Members, the Manager is authorized to make any appropriate adjustments to such provisions.

(iii) All items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit allocable to an interest in the Company that may have been Transferred shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee based on the portion of the Fiscal Year or other taxable period during which each was recognized as the owner of such interest, without regard to the results of Company operations during any particular portion of that year and without regard to whether cash distributions were made to the transferor or the transferee during that year;provided, however, that this allocation must be made in accordance with a method determined by the Manager and permissible under Code Section 706 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(iv) The Members’ proportionate shares of the “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Company, within the meaning of Treasury RegulationsSection 1.752-3(a)(3), shall be allocated to the Members on apro rata basis, in accordance with the number of Units owned by each Member.

4.3Withholding.

(a)Withholding Tax Payments. Each of the Company and its subsidiaries may withhold from distributions, allocations or portions thereof if it is required to do so by any applicable rule, regulation or law, and each Member hereby authorizes the Company and its subsidiaries to withhold or pay on behalf of or with respect to such Member, any amount of U.S. federal, state or local ornon-U.S. taxes that the Manager determines, in good faith, that the Company or any of its subsidiaries is required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable or allocable to such Member pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)Tax Audits. To the extent that any income tax is paid by the Company or any of its subsidiaries as a result of an audit or other proceeding with respect to such tax and the Manager determines, in good faith, that such tax relates to one or more specific Members (including any Company Level Taxes), such tax shall be treated as an amount of taxes withheld or paid with respect to such Member pursuant to thisSection 4.3(b). Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in thisSection 4.3(b), the payment by the Company of Company Level Taxes shall, consistent with the Partnership Tax Audit Rules, be treated as the payment of a Company obligation and shall be treated as paid with respect to a Member to the extent the deduction with respect to such payment is allocated to such Member pursuant toSection 4.2(b)(xi) and such payment shall not be treated as a withholding from distributions, allocations or portions thereof with respect to a Member.

(c)Tax Contribution and Indemnity Obligation. Any amounts withheld or paid with respect to a Member pursuant toSection 4.3(a) or(b) shall be offset against any distributions to which such Member is entitled concurrently with such withholding or payment (a “Tax Offset”);provided that the amount of any distribution subject to a Tax Offset shall be treated as having been distributed to such Member pursuant toArticle 3,Section 4.1 orSection 8.2(b) at the time such Tax Offset is made. To the extent that (i) there is a payment of Company Level Taxes relating to a Member or (ii) the amount of such Tax Offset exceeds the distributions to which such Member is entitled during the same Fiscal Year as such withholding or payment (“Excess Tax Amount”), the amount of such (i) Company Level Taxes or (ii) Excess Tax Amount, as applicable, shall, upon notification to such Member by the Manager, give rise to an obligation of such Member to make a capital contribution to the Company (a “Tax Contribution Obligation”), which Tax Contribution Obligation shall be immediately due and payable. In the event a Member defaults with respect to its obligation under the prior sentence, the Company shall be entitled to offset the amount of a Member’s Tax Contribution Obligation against distributions to which such Member would otherwise be subsequently entitled until the full amount of such Tax Contribution Obligation has been contributed to the Company or has been recovered through offset against distributions, and any such offset shall not reduce such Member’s Capital Account. Any contribution by a Member with respect to a Tax Contribution Obligation shall increase such Member’s Capital Account but shall not reduce the amount (if any) that a Member is otherwise obligated to contribute to the Company. Each Member hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Company a security interest in such Member’s Units to secure such Member’s obligation to pay the Company any amounts required to be paid pursuant to thisSection 4.3. Each Member shall take such actions as the Company may reasonably request in order to perfect or enforce the security interest created hereunder. Each Member hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the other Members, the Company Representative and the Manager from and against any liability (including any liability for Company Level Taxes) with respect to income attributable to or distributions or other payments to such Member.

(d)Continued Obligations of Former Members. Any Person who ceases to be a Member shall be deemed to be a Member solely for purposes of thisSection 4.3, and the obligations of a Member pursuant to thisSection 4.3 shall survive until 30 days after the closing of the applicable statute of limitations on assessment with respect to the taxes withheld or paid by the Company or a subsidiary that relate to the period during which such Person was actually a Member.

(e)Manager Discretion Regarding Recovery of Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager may choose not to recover an amount of Company Level Taxes or other taxes withheld or paid with respect to a Member under thisSection 4.3 to the extent that there are no distributions to which such Member is entitled that may be offset by such amounts if the Manager determines, in its reasonable discretion, that such a decision would be in the best interests of the Members (e.g., where the cost of recovering the amount of taxes withheld or paid with respect to such Member is not justified in light of the amount that may be recovered from such Member).

ARTICLE 5

5.1Manager Managed Company. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, the management, control and direction of the Company and its operations, business and affairs shall be vested in the Manager, which shall have the right, power and authority to carry out any and all of the purposes of the Company and to perform or refrain from performing any and all acts that the Manager may deem necessary, desirable, appropriate or incidental thereto, in its sole discretion. The Members hereby designate PubCo as the Manager. The Manager may appoint such other officers as the Manager may determine. Such officers shall have such responsibilities and authorities as designated by the Manager, subject to the applicable restrictions set forth herein and to the direction of the Manager. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement and other than in connection with a transaction pursuant to which all of the outstanding Brigham Minerals Holdings Units not held by PubCo are converted into cash, property or securities of another Person (and in which case the holders of Units will have the right to receive the same cash, property or other securities that received by the other holders of Brigham Minerals Holdings Units (other than PubCo) upon the vesting of Units), the Company shall not be entitled to (and the Manager may not authorize the Company to) Transfer any Brigham Minerals Holdings Units, shares of PubCo Class B Common Stock, other securities of Brigham Minerals Holdings or PubCo or Other Distributable Property held by the Company without the prior written consent of the Manager and the holders of a majority of the outstanding Units.

5.2Replacement of the Manager. The Members may not remove the Person designated as the Manager without such Person’s prior written consent. In the event the Manager resigns, the holders of a majority of the outstanding Units may select a replacement Manager.

5.3Indemnification; Advancement of Expenses; Insurance; Limitation of Liability.

(a) Except as limited by applicable law and subject to the provisions of thisSection 5.3, each Manager, Member, Company Representative and officer of the Company (each an “Indemnitee”) shall be entitled to be indemnified and held harmless against any and all losses, liabilities and reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising from proceedings in which such Indemnitee may be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its being a Manager, Member or officer of the Company, or by reason of its involvement in the management of the affairs of the Company, whether or not it continues to be such at the time any such loss, liability or expense is paid or incurred;provided,however, that no Indemnitee shall be indemnified under thisSection 5.3 for any losses, liabilities or expenses arising out of the fraud, intentional

misconduct, gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct of such Indemnitee. The rights of indemnification provided in thisSection 5.3 shall be in addition to any rights to which an Indemnitee may otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of law and shall extend to such Indemnitee’s successors and assigns. In particular, and without limitation of the foregoing, an Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification by the Company against reasonable expenses (as incurred), including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of any action to which the Indemnitee may be made a party (without regard to the success of such defense), to the fullest extent permitted under the provisions of the DLLCA or any other applicable statute.

(b) Except as limited by applicable law, expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any proceeding, including a proceeding by or in the right of the Company (except a proceeding by or in the right of the Company against such Indemnitee), shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding upon receipt of a written undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnitee to repay such amount if such Indemnitee is determined pursuant to thisSection 5.3 or adjudicated to be ineligible for indemnification, which undertaking shall be an unlimited general obligation of the Indemnitee but need not be secured and shall be accepted without regard to the financial ability of the Indemnitee to make repayment.

(c) The indemnification provided by thisSection 5.3 shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and personal representatives of each Indemnitee.

(d) No amendment or repeal of the provisions of thisSection 5.3 that adversely affects the rights of any Indemnitee under thisSection 5.3 with respect to the acts or omissions of such Indemnitee at any time prior to such amendment or repeal shall apply to such Indemnitee without the written consent of such Indemnitee.

(e) Any indemnification pursuant to thisSection 5.3 shall be made only out of the assets of the Company and shall in no event cause the Members to incur any personal liability nor shall it result in any liability of the Members to any third party.

(f) None of the Manager, Members, Company Representative or any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective employees, agents, directors, managers and officers shall be liable to the Company for errors in judgment or for any acts or omissions that do not constitute fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct.THE MEMBERS RECOGNIZE THAT SUCH EXCULPATION FROM LIABILITY RELATES TO ACTS OR OMISSIONS THAT MAY GIVE RISE TO ORDINARY, CONCURRENT OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE. The termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that any Person engaged in fraud or willful misconduct, was grossly negligent or was guilty of willful or wanton misconduct.

(g) The Company hereby acknowledges that an Indemnitee may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by such Indemnitee or its Affiliates (collectively, the “Other Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees and acknowledges (i) that it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to any Indemnitee hereunder are primary and any obligation of the Other Indemnitors to advance expenses or to

provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by Indemnitee are secondary to the Company), (ii) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement (or any other agreement between the Company and Indemnitee), without regard to any rights Indemnitee may have against the Other Indemnitors, and (iii) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Other Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Other Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Other Indemnitors on behalf of Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing, and the Other Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee against the Company. The Other Indemnitors are express third-party beneficiaries of the terms of thisSection 5.3(g).

5.4Insurance. The Company shall acquire and maintain insurance, including D&O insurance, covering such risks and in such amounts as the Manager shall from time to time determine to be necessary or appropriate.

5.5Tax Elections. The Company shall make the following elections for tax purposes on the appropriate returns:

(a) to the extent permitted by law, to adopt the calendar year as the Company’s Fiscal Year;

(b) to the extent permitted by law, to adopt the accrual method of accounting and to keep the Company’s books and records on such method;

(c) if a distribution of the Company’s property as described in Section 734 of the Code occurs or upon a Transfer of an Interest as described in Section 743 of the Code, on request by notice from any Member, to elect, pursuant to Section 754 of the Code, to adjust the basis of the Company’s properties;

(d) to elect to deduct and amortize the organizational expenses of the Company as permitted by Section 709(b) of the Code;

(e) except where the Manager elects to applySection 4.3(e), to elect out of the application of the partnership-level audit and adjustment rules of the Partnership Tax Audit Rules by making an election under Section 6226(a) of the Code, commonly known as the “push out” election, or any analogous election under state or local tax law, if applicable; and

(f) any other tax election the Manager deems appropriate and in the best interests of the Members.

5.6Tax Returns. The Company shall prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed all federal, state and local income and other tax returns that the Company is required to file. The Company shall deliver to each Member a copy of each approved return and statement, together with any schedules (including ScheduleK-1) or other information that a Member may require in connection with such Member’s own tax affairs as soon as practicable (but in no event more than 90 days after the end of each Fiscal Year or such longer period of time not in excess of 120 days after the end of the applicable Fiscal Year as is approved by the Manager). The Members agree to (a) take all actions reasonably requested by the Company or the Company Representative to comply with the Partnership Tax Audit Rules, including where applicable, filing amended returns as provided in Sections 6225 or 6226 of the Code and providing confirmation thereof to the Company Representative and (b) furnish to the Company (i) all reasonably requested certificates or statements relating to the tax matters of the Company (including without limitation an affidavit ofnon-foreign status pursuant to Section 1446(f)(2) of the Code), and (ii) all pertinent information in its possession relating to the Company’s operations that is reasonably necessary to enable the Company’s tax returns to be prepared and timely filed. The Company shall bear the costs of the preparation and filing of its tax returns.

5.7Company Representative. The Manager is specially authorized and appointed to act as the Company Representative and in any similar capacity under state or local law. The Company and the Members (including any Member designated as the Company Representative prior to the date hereof) shall cooperate fully with each other and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Manager (or any other Person subsequently designated) to become the Company Representative with respect to any taxable period of the Company with respect to which the statute of limitations has not yet expired, including (as applicable) by filing certifications pursuant to Treasury RegulationsSection 301.6231(a)(7)-1(d). In acting as Company Representative, the Manager shall act, to the maximum extent possible, to cause income, gain, loss, deduction, credit of the Company and adjustments thereto, to be allocated or borne by the Members in the same manner as such items or adjustments would have been borne if the Company could have effectively made an election under Section 6221(b) of the Code (commonly known as the “election out”) or similar state or local provision with respect to the taxable period at issue. The Company Representative may retain, at the Company’s expense, such outside counsel, accountants and other professional consultants as it may reasonably deem necessary in the course of fulfilling its obligations as Company Representative.

5.8Classification. The Company intends to be classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes under Treasury Regulations Section301.7701-3(c). Neither the Company nor any Member may make an election under Treasury RegulationsSection 301.7701-3(c) to treat the Company as an association taxable as a corporation or to be excluded from the application of the provisions of Subchapter K of Chapter 1 of Subtitle A of the Code or any similar provisions of applicable state law and no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to sanction or approve such an election.

5.9Subsidiaries. The Company, the Manager and each Member acknowledge and agree that the Company shall not form or acquire any subsidiaries unless otherwise agreed by the Manager and the holders of a majority of the outstanding Units.
