that may be the same as or similar to the Company's business and in direct
competition therewith, or to invest in the same business activity or venture as
those in
4
which the Company has invested, and no Member or the Managers shall have any
obligation to offer any such business activity or venture to the Company.
Neither the Company nor the Member shall have any right, by virtue of this
Agreement or the relationship created hereunder, in such investments or to such
other activities or ventures, and such activities or ventures, even if the same
are directly competitive with the business of the Company, shall not be deemed
wrongful or improper, manifestly unreasonable or a breach of any duty imposed on
the Member or the Managers hereunder, the Act or other applicable law.

credit of the Company shall be allocated, charged, or credited among the Members
in accordance with their respective membership interests.

such times and in such amounts as the Managers shall determine to be

with each such Member's membership interest at the time of the distribution with
no priority as to any Member.
12. Additional Members and Membership Interests. Additional persons
may be admitted to the Company as Members and membership interests may be
created and issued to such persons on such terms and conditions as the Member
shall determine and as shall be reflected in an appropriate amendment to this
Agreement that is approved by all the Members.

liabilities,

Capital Contributions such Member has agreed to make to the Company and such

its Capital Contributions only as and when such payments are due in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. No Member shall be required to make any loans

for any purposes other than as the Managers may determine, and this Agreement
shall not be construed to suggest otherwise.

such basis.
