ARTICLE III
UNITS AND CAPITALIZATION
3.1    Units.
(a)    General. Each Member’s interest in the Company, including such Member’s interest, if any, in the capital, income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses of the Company and the right to vote, if any, on certain Company matters as provided in this Agreement, shall be represented by the Units which may be issued in one (1) or more classes or series of classes, as approved by the Manager.
(b)    The Company shall have three classes of Membership Interests consisting of (i) Class A Membership Interests, which shall be referred to in this Agreement as “Class A Units” and (ii) Series A Preferred Units, which shall be referred to in this Agreement as “Series A Preferred Units”.
(c)    The Class A Units and Series A Preferred Units shall be uncertificated.
(d)    The Company is authorized to and shall issue the Class A Units.
(e)    The Company is authorized to and shall issue Series A Preferred Units at
$10 per Series A Preferred Unit. Except as specifically provided herein, the Series A Preferred Units shall be non-voting Membership Interests.
(f)    As of the Effective Date, and as detailed on the attached Schedule of Members, the Company has (i) issued certain Class A Units to the Class A Members, (ii) issued certain Series Preferred A Units to Series A Preferred Members. The Manager may amend the Schedule of Members from time to time to reflect any changes thereto resulting from any additional subscriptions, issuances, transfers, or admissions effected in accordance with this Agreement.
(g)    Maximum Units. The maximum number of authorized Units shall not exceed Three Million (3,000,000) Units, consisting of One Million Six Hundred Thousand Class A Common Units (1,600,000) and One Million Four Hundred Thousand (1,400,000) Preferred Units, unless approved by a Super Majority in Interest of the Members. The Common Units representing an interest in the Company shall consist of Class A Common Units.
(h)    Election for Profits Interests. By executing this Agreement, each Member authorizes and directs the Company to elect to have the “Safe Harbor” described in the proposed Revenue Procedure set forth in Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-43 (the “IRS Notice”) apply to any interest in the Company transferred to a service provider by the Company on or after the effective date of such Revenue Procedure in connection with services provided to the Company. For purposes of making such Safe Harbor election, the Tax Matters Representative is hereby designated as the “partner who has responsibility for U.S. federal income tax reporting” by the Company and, accordingly, execution of such

Safe Harbor election by the Tax Matters Representative constitutes execution of a “Safe Harbor Election” in accordance with Section 3.03(1) of the IRS Notice. The Company and each Member hereby agree to comply with all requirements of the Safe Harbor described in the IRS Notice, including, without limitation, the requirement that each Member shall prepare and file any U.S. federal income tax returns such Member is required to file reporting the income tax effects of each “Safe Harbor Partnership Interest” issued by the Company in a manner consistent with the requirements of the IRS Notice. A Member's obligations to comply with the requirements of this Section shall survive such Member's ceasing to be a Member of the Company and/or the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Company, and, for purposes of this Section, the Company shall be treated as continuing in existence. Each Member authorizes the Tax Matters Representative to amend this Section to the extent necessary to achieve similar tax treatment with respect to any interest in the Company transferred to a service provider by the Company in connection with services provided to the Company as set forth in Section 4 of the IRS Notice (e.g., to reflect changes from the rules set forth in the IRS Notice in subsequent U.S. Department of Treasury or Internal Revenue Service guidance).
3.2    Preferred Units.
(a)    General. The Preferred Units may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Manager is authorized to fix the number of Units of any series of Preferred Units and to determine the designation of any such series, including, but not limited to, the voting powers, if any, preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions relating thereto, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing (subject to Section 3.1): the voting rights relating to the Units of Preferred Units of any series (which voting rights, if any, may be full or limited, may vary over time, and may be applicable generally or only upon any stated fact or event); the distribution rights or preferences, the amount, condition or time for payment of distributions and the preference or relation of such distributions to distributions payable on any other class or series of Preferred Units or Common Units; the rights of holders of Preferred Units of any series in the event of liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of the Company; the rights, if any, of holders of Preferred Units of any series to convert or exchange such Units of Preferred Units of such series for Units of any other class or series of Common Units or Preferred Units or for any other securities, property, or assets of the Company or any subsidiary (including the determination of the price or prices or the rate or rates applicable to such rights to convert or exchange and the adjustment thereof, the time or times during which the right to convert or exchange shall be applicable, and the time or times during which a particular price or rate shall be applicable); whether the Units of any series of Preferred Units shall be subject to redemption by the Company and if subject to redemption, the times, prices, rates, adjustments and other terms and conditions of such redemption. The Manager is further authorized to determine or alter the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued series of Preferred Units and, within the limits and restrictions stated in any resolution or resolutions of the Manager originally fixing the number of Units constituting any series, to increase or decrease (but not below the number of Units of each series outstanding) the number of Units of any such series subsequent to the issuance of Units of that series. Unless the Manager provides to the contrary in the resolution which fixes the characteristics of a series of Preferred Units, neither the consent by the series, or otherwise, of the holders of any outstanding Preferred Units nor the consent of the holders of any outstanding Common Units shall be required for the issuance of any new series of Preferred Units regardless of whether the rights and preferences of the new series of Preferred Units are senior or superior, in any way, to the outstanding series of Preferred Units or the Common Units.
(b)    Initial Issuance of Series Preferred Units. Following execution of this Agreement, the Company shall issue Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units in accordance with the terms, preferences, rights, conditions and limitations set forth in this Agreement in the names and the amounts to be set forth on one or more updated version of the Schedule of Members. See Article IV.

3.3    Certificates.
(a)    General. The Units owned by the Members will be recorded on the Schedule of Members and will not be required to be represented by physical certificates. The Manager may in its discretion issue certificates to the Members representing the Units held by each Member, containing such legends as the Manager deems appropriate or required by applicable securities laws in the Manager’s discretion, including as set forth in Section 3.3(b). If certificates represent the Units, the certificates shall be signed by, or in the name of the Company by any one (1) Director and shall represent the number of Units held by a Member registered in certificate form. Any signature on such certificate may be a facsimile. If any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed on a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Company with the same effect as if such individual was an officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.
(b)    Legends. Each certificate shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:
ANY ASSIGNMENT OR TRANSFER OF AN INTEREST IN THIS LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY IS SUBJECT TO THE RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED ON TRANSFER BY THE FIRST AMENDED AND RESTATED OPERATING AGREEMENT OF THE COMPANY DATED OCTOBER 3, 2023.
A certificate representing Units that are subject to further restrictions on Transfer or to other restrictions may have a notation of such additional restriction(s) imprinted thereon.
(c)    Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates; Issuance of New Certificates. The Company may issue a new certificate in the place of any certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, and the Company may require the owner of the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or his, her or its legal representative, to give the Company a bond sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate.
3.4    Capital Contributions. Each Member has made, or concurrently with the execution of this Agreement is making, a Capital Contribution to the Company in the amount set forth in the records of the Company. No Member shall be entitled to any interest or compensation with respect to such Member’s Capital Contribution or share of the capital of the Company, except as expressly provided herein. No Member shall have any liability for the repayment of the Capital Contribution of any other Member and each Member shall look only to the assets of the Company for return of such Member’s Capital Contributions to the extent permitted herein.
3.5    Additional Capital – Obligation of Class A Common Members.
(a)    General. Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Class A Common Members shall make additional Capital Contributions in such amounts and at such times and from time to time  as  the  Manager  determines  is  needed  and  approves  and  recommends  to  the  Class A Common Members, which a Majority in Interest of the Class A Common Members approves (the “Capital Call”). The Manager shall provide written notice of the Capital Call to the Class A Common Members and each of the Class A Common Members shall be required to fund to the Company its pro rata share (based upon such Class A Common Member’s respective Class A Common Membership Percentage) of the amount of the Capital Call which amount shall be due, in cash, on the date determined by the Majority

in Interest of the Class A Common Members (the “Funding Date”), which shall be specified in the notice of the Capital Call provided by the Manager.
(b)    Non-Contributing Class A Common Members. In the event any Class A Common Member shall fail to make to the Company the full amount of the Capital Call required of such Class A Common Member by the Funding Date (each, a “Non-Contributing Class A Common Member,” collectively, the “Non-Contributing Class A Common Members”), the other Class A Common Members (the “Contributing Class A Common Members”) shall have the right, exercisable within thirty (30) days after the Funding Date (the “Post Funding Period”), but only so long as any of the Non-Contributing Class A Common Members shall continue to be a Non-Contributing Class A Common Member hereunder, to elect one of the following options:
(i)    Upon the approval of Contributing Class A Common Members holding a majority of the Class A Common Units represented by the Contributing Class A Common Members, to cause the Company to return to the Contributing Class A Common Members the full amount of their portion of the Capital Call made to the Company with respect to the relevant Funding Date, and simultaneously therewith causing the return to the Non-Contributing Class A Common Members of any portion of the Capital Call which may have been advanced to the Company by the Non-Contributing Class A Common Members, such refund to be made immediately upon written demand therefor from the Contributing Class A Common Members; provided, that if the Contributing Class A Common Members do not elect to obtain a refund of their portion of the Capital Call during the Post Funding Period, then simultaneously and automatically upon expiration of the Post Funding Period, and without any further action on the part of the Manager or any of the Members, the Company shall cause an adjustment to the Class A Common Membership Percentages in accordance with the calculation set forth in Section 3.5(d) (Unfunded Balance as Capital Contribution); or
(ii)    If the Contributing Class A Common Members shall not have elected to obtain a refund of their additional Capital Contributions in accordance with subsection (i) above, then the Contributing Class A Common Members may, pro rata (based upon the relative percentages of the Contributing Class A Common Members electing to make advances under this subsection (ii)), advance to the Company a sum equal to (but not less than) the difference between the full amount of the portion of the Capital Call which the Non-Contributing Class A Common Members were required to advance to the Company and the actual amount thereof, if any, so advanced by any Non-Contributing Class A Common Member (said difference being herein referred to as the “Unfunded Balance”). If any of the Contributing Class A Common Members elect to advance an amount equal to the Unfunded Balance to the Company, each such Contributing Class A Common Member(s) shall, concurrently therewith, elect, by notice in writing to the Company and to the Non-Contributing Class A Common Members, to treat such advance as (A) a loan to the Non-Contributing Class A Common Members (which loan shall bear interest at the highest rate permitted by law, be payable in full upon demand by the Contributing Class A Common Members, and be secured by the Units owned by the Non-Contributing Class A Common Members), (B) an additional Capital Contribution to the Company, or (C) any combination of loan and additional Capital Contribution.
(c)    Unfunded Balance as a Loan. If such Contributing Class A Common Members elect to treat all or part of the additional advance as a loan to the Non-Contributing Class A Common Members, the Non-Contributing Class A Common Members shall execute and deliver such documents and instruments evidencing and securing such advance to the Contributing Class A Common Members, including, but not limited to, a promissory note, security agreement and UCC-1 Financing Statement.

(d)    Unfunded Balance as a Capital Contribution. If such Contributing Class A Common Members elect to treat all or part of the additional advance as an additional Capital Contribution to the Company, then (i) the amount of such advance made by a Contributing Class A Common Member which is treated as a Capital Contribution shall be credited to the Capital Account of each such Contributing Class A Common Member; and (ii) the Class A Common Membership Percentages shall be adjusted, effective as of the date of the additional advance made by the Contributing Class A Common Members, as follows:
(i)    The Class A Common Membership Percentage of each Contributing Class A Common Member shall be equal to the percentage determined by dividing (x) the Capital Base of such Contributing Class A Common Member, by (y) the Total Capital Base; and
(ii)    The Class A Common Membership Percentage of the Non-Contributing Class A Common Member shall be an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) less the Class A Common Membership Percentage of the Contributing Class A Common Members, as adjusted pursuant to clause (i) above;
provided, that in order to accomplish the foregoing adjustments, the Non-Contributing Class A Common Members shall execute and deliver such documents and instruments necessary to transfer the necessary number of Units to the Contributing Class A Common Members or the Company shall be authorized to issue new Units to the Contributing Class A Common Members.
(e)    Defaulted Common Member. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event a Class A Common Member fails to fund an additional Capital Contribution as aforesaid, the membership interest of such Class A Common Member shall be a defaulted interest and such Class A Common Member shall have no right to vote with respect to any Company matter, and shall forfeit its interest in the Company.
(f)    Remedies. The remedies provided above shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies which the Company and the Contributing Class A Common Members may have in the event of the failure of any Class A Common Member to make an additional Capital Contribution under this Agreement, any other agreement, at law or in equity. Nothing herein shall be interpreted to excuse a Class A Common Member from his, her or its obligations to make additional Capital Contributions pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
3.6    Additional Capital – Other. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Manager may, at any time and from time to time, determine that the Company requires additional funds (“Additional Funds”). Accordingly, in the discretion of the Manager, the Company may raise Additional Funds in any manner provided in, and in accordance with, the following:
(a)    Third Party Loans. At the discretion of the Manager, the Company may raise all or any portion of the Additional Funds by incurring or assuming debt, or by entering into credit, guaranty, financing or refinancing arrangements, upon such terms as the Manager determines appropriate; and
(b)    Affiliate Loans. If the Manager determines at any time (or from time to time) that the Company needs Additional Funds from the Members, the Manager or its designees may, in the Manager’s sole and absolute discretion, loan such funds to the Company. Any such loan will be unsecured and accrue interest at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, compounded annually and based on a calendar year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days.

3.7    Additional Units.
(a)    At the discretion of the Manager and subject to the approval of a Majority in Interest of the Class A Common Members, the Company may raise all or any portion of the Additional Funds by selling or issuing to existing Members or other Persons who will then be admitted as additional Members: (i) Units in exchange for property, cash or services; (ii) obligations, evidences of indebtedness or other securities or interests convertible or exchangeable into Units; and (iii) warrants, options or other rights to purchase or otherwise acquire Units.
(b)    In connection with any issuance or sale of additional Units or other interests in the Company pursuant to this Section 3.7, the acquiring Person shall, in exchange for such Units or other interests, make Capital Contributions to the Company in an amount and under terms and conditions determined by the Manager and subject to the approval of a Majority in Interest of the Class A Common Members, which Capital Contributions, terms or conditions may differ from the Capital Contributions, terms and conditions relating to Units previously sold or issued. By way of illustration, and without limitation, additional Units sold to raise some or all of needed Additional Funds may be sold at a price per additional Unit less than the price per Unit at which Units were previously sold.
(c)    In connection with any issuance or sale of additional Units or other interests in the Company, the Manager shall amend the Schedule of Members as necessary to reflect such additional issuances (including the number, series and class of Units and Capital Contributions of the acquiring Person), and shall have the power to make any other amendments to this Agreement (including, without limitation, amending the provisions of Article VI (Distributions; Allocations of Profits and Losses)) as the Manager deems necessary to authorize any such Units or other securities, provide for the relative rights, powers, preferences, duties, liabilities and obligations of such Units, or otherwise reflect or provide for such additional issuances, in each case, without the consent or approval of any Member unless the amendment would change any term of this Agreement which otherwise requires the consent or approval of Members holding a Majority in Interest of the Members or a Majority in Interest of the Class A Common Members, as the case may be, in order to effectuate the change, in which event the consent or approval of Members holding a Majority in Interest of the Members or a Majority in Interest of the Class A Common Members, as the case may be, must first be obtained.
(d)    Subject to the restrictions in Article XII (Transfers; Admission of Members), upon the acquisition of any Units or other interests in the Company by a Person who is not a Member, such Person shall execute and deliver a joinder to this Agreement and, subject to compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 12.8 or Section 12.9 hereof, as applicable, such Person shall become a Member hereunder and shall be listed as a Member on the Schedule of Members, together with such Member’s address, number and class of Units and amount of Capital Contributions.
3.8    Securities Laws. To accomplish the purpose of this Article, the Manager is hereby authorized to do all things necessary to admit Members, including, but not limited to, qualifying the Units for sale with state securities regulatory authorities or perfecting exemptions from qualification, and entering into such underwriting or agency arrangements for the offering and sale of Units upon such terms and conditions as the Manager may deem advisable.

The Company may issue fractional Series B Preferred Units.
4.2    Ranking. The Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units shall be senior to any other class of Units. As long as any Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units remain outstanding, the Company shall not, without obtaining the prior approval of the Series Preferred Members owning at least a majority of the Series Preferred Units then outstanding, create, authorize or issue any other class of Units, the terms of which provide that such class of Units shall rank prior to the Series Preferred Units in respect of rights upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; provided, however, the Manager may, at any time, create, authorize or issue, without the consent of any of the Series Preferred Members, other classes of Units or series thereof which rank junior to, or on parity with, the Series Preferred Units in respect to dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company.
4.3    Preferred Return Payments. The Preferred Return on a Series A Preferred Unit and on a Series B Preferred Unit will accrue on a daily basis at 7% per annum (the “Preferred Return”).

All computations of the Preferred Return shall be made as of on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and shall be calculated based on the actual number of days elapsed. In the event that any Preferred Return provided for herein shall be determined to be unlawful, such Preferred Return rate shall be computed at the highest rate permitted by applicable law.
4.4    Liquidation Preference. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, whether voluntary or otherwise, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of the Company, the Series A Preferred Members and Series B Preferred Members shall be entitled to receive, before the Common Members or other classes of preferred units of the Company ranking junior thereto, out of the remaining net assets of the Company, the amount each Series Preferred Member invested in the Series Preferred Units.
(b) Insufficient Assets. In the event that, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of the Company and preferences or other rights granted to the Series Preferred Members, the remaining net assets of the Company are not sufficient to pay the liquidation preference of the Series Preferred Members, then no such distribution shall be made on account of any Units of any other class or series of the Company ranking on a parity with the Series Preferred Units upon such liquidation, unless proportionate distributive amounts shall be paid on account of each of the Series Preferred Units, ratably, in proportion to the full distributable amounts for which holders of all such parity units, including other Series Preferred Units, are respectively entitled upon such liquidation.

4.5    Voting Rights. Except as otherwise required by law or as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Series A Preferred Members and Series B Preferred Members shall not be entitled to vote at any meeting of the Common Members for any purpose or otherwise to participate in any action taken by the Common Members.

ARTICLE VI
DISTRIBUTIONS; ALLOCATIONS OF PROFITS AND LOSSES
6.1    Generally. Subject to the provisions of the Act, the Manager shall have discretion regarding the amounts and timing of Distributions to Members, in each case subject to the retention of, or payment to third parties of, such funds as the Manager deems necessary with respect to the reasonable business needs of the Company, which shall include (but not by way of limitation) the payment or the making of provision for the payment when due of Company obligations, including establishing reserves and the payment of any management or administrative fees and expenses or any other obligations. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to make a distribution to the Members on account of their Units in the Company if such distribution would violate the Act or any other applicable law or any of the Company’s covenants respecting its financings, leases or other contractual commitments.

6.2    Distributions.

(a)    General. Subject to the provisions of Article IV, the Company may make Distributions, the frequency and amount of which shall be determined by the Manager, in its sole discretion, to the Members as follows:
(i)    First, funds from each project related to each Series will be paid to the respective Series Unit Holders pro rata until the accrued Preferred Return is paid in full;
(ii)    Second, remaining funds from each project related to each Series will be paid to the respective Series Unit Holders pro rata until the respective Series Unit Holders receive a full repayment of their original investment amount in the respective Series;
(iii)    Thereafter, remaining fund from each project related to each Series shall be paid using a split of 15% / 85% between the Class A Members and respective Series Unit Holders, pro rata amongst each.
6.3    Allocation of Profits and Losses. For each Fiscal Year of the Company, after adjusting each Member’s Capital Account for all Capital Contributions and distributions during such Fiscal Year and all special allocations pursuant to Section 6.4 with respect to such Fiscal Year, all Profits and Losses (other than Profits and Losses specially allocated pursuant to Section 6.4) shall be allocated to the Members’ Capital Accounts in a manner such that, as of the end of such Fiscal Year, the Capital Account of each Member (which may be either a positive or negative balance) shall be equal to (a) the amount which would be distributed to such Member, determined as if the Company were to liquidate all of its assets for the Book Value thereof and distribute the proceeds thereof (after payment of all Company debts, liabilities and obligations) pursuant to Section 6.2(a) hereof, minus (b) the sum of (i) such Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain (as determined according to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(d) and (g)(3)) and Member Minimum Gain (as determined according to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)) and (ii) the amount, if any, which such Member is obligated to contribute to the capital of the Company as of the last day of such Fiscal Year.
6.4    Special Allocations. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2:
(a)    Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Members pro rata in proportion to the total number of such Units held by each such Member. If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Taxable Year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of taxable income or gain for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Taxable Years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This paragraph is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(b)    Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated in the manner required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). Except as otherwise provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain during any Taxable Year, each Member that has a share of such Member Minimum Gain shall be specially allocated items of taxable income or gain for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Taxable Years) in an amount equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain. Items to be allocated pursuant to this paragraph shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This paragraph is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c)    Unexpected Adjustments. If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or Distributions described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of taxable income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the adjusted capital account deficit (determined according to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(d)) created by such adjustments, allocations or Distributions as quickly as possible. This paragraph is intended to comply with the qualified income offset requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(d)    Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 704. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating Profits and Losses among Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of Profits and Losses and other items and the Regulatory Allocations (including Regulatory Allocations that, although not yet made, are expected to be made in the future) to each Member shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.
(e)    Transactions between Members and the Company. If, and to the extent that, any Member is deemed to recognize any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit as a result of any transaction between such Member and the Company pursuant to Code Sections 1272-1274, 7872, 483, 482, 83 or any similar provision now or hereafter in effect, and the Manager determines that any corresponding Profit or Loss of the Company should be allocated to the Member who recognized such item in order to reflect the Member’s economic interests in the Company, then the Manager may so allocate such Profit or Loss.
(f)    Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities. For purposes of calculating a Member’s share of “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Company (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3)), the Members intend that they be considered as sharing profits of the Company in proportion to their respective Membership Percentages.
(g)    Company Nonrecourse Liability. Deductions attributable to any “nonrecourse liability” of the Company, as defined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(b)(3) of the Treasury Regulations, shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their respective Membership Percentages.
6.5    Tax Allocations; Code Section 704(c).
(a)    General. The income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses of the Company shall be allocated, for federal, state and local income tax purposes, among the Members in accordance with the allocation of such income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses among the Members for computing their Capital Accounts, except that if any such allocation is not permitted by the Code or other applicable law, the Company’s subsequent income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses shall be allocated among the Members so as to reflect as nearly as possible the allocation set forth herein in computing their Capital Accounts.
(b)    Section 704(c). In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, deduction and expense 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 fair market value at the time of contribution.

(c)    Adjustment of Book Value. If the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to this Section, subsequent allocations of items of taxable income, gain, loss, deduction and expense with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Book Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c).
(d)    Manager’s Authority. Any elections or other decisions relating to allocations for federal, state and local income tax purposes shall be made by the Manager in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intent of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 6.5 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 provisions of this Agreement. The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Article and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article in reporting their shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.
6.6    Amounts Withheld. All amounts withheld from or offset against any Distribution to a Member pursuant to Section 10.3 shall be treated as amounts distributed to such Member pursuant to this Article VI for all purposes under this Agreement.

If a Manager who was appointed by a Majority in Interest of the Members dies or becomes Incapacitated, a new Manager to replace such deceased or Incapacitated Manager shall be appointed by a Majority in Interest of the Members
7.12    Standards of Conduct and Modification of Duties.
(a)    General. In the performance of his duties, the Manager shall not be deemed to be held to any higher standards than those set forth in the Act.

(b)    Good Faith. Whenever the Manager makes a determination or takes or declines to take any other action in his capacity as Manager of the Company as opposed to in his individual capacity, whether under this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or otherwise, then, unless another express standard is provided for in this Agreement, the Manager shall make such determination or take or decline to take such other action in good faith and shall not be subject to any higher standard contemplated hereby or under the Act or any other law, rule or regulation or at equity. A determination, other action or failure to act by the Manager will be deemed to be in good faith unless the Manager acted in a manner that was in wanton and willful disregard for the interests of the Company. The standard shall be deemed to have been met if the Manager took into consideration the interests of the Company in making any decision or taking or declining to take any action, regardless of the actual decision made or action taken or not taken. In any proceeding brought by the Company, any Member, or any Person who acquires an interest in a Unit or any other Person who is bound by this Agreement challenging such action, determination or failure to act, the Person bringing or prosecuting such proceeding shall have the burden of proving that such determination, action or failure to act was not in good faith.
(c)    Individual Capacity. Whenever the Manager makes a determination or takes or declines to take any other action in his individual capacity as opposed to in his capacity as Manager of the Company, whether under this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or otherwise, then the Manager is entitled, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to make such determination or to take or decline to take such other action free of any fiduciary duty or other duty existing at law, in equity or otherwise or obligation whatsoever to the Company, any Member, any other Person who acquires an interest in a Unit or any other Person who otherwise is bound by this Agreement, and the Manager shall not, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be required to act in good faith or pursuant to any other standard imposed by this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or under the Act or any other law, rule or regulation or at equity. By way of illustration and not of limitation, whenever the phrases, “at the option of the Manager,” “in his sole discretion” or some variation of those phrases, are used in this Agreement, it indicates that the Manager is acting in his individual capacity. For the avoidance of doubt, whenever the Manager votes or transfers Units he may own, or refrain from voting or transferring Units he may own, he shall be acting in his individual capacity.
(d)    Duty of Loyalty. Whenever the Manager makes a determination or takes or declines to take any other action in his capacity as Manager of the Company as opposed to in his individual capacity, whether under this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or otherwise, then the Manager shall make such determination or take or decline to take such action in a manner that is consistent with his duty of loyalty to the Company. It is hereby understood, acknowledged and agreed that the Manager’s duty of loyalty shall not be violated by the Manager taking any of the following or similar actions:
(i)    the ownership, either directly or through Affiliates, of other entities of the same business type and within the same business sector as the Company;
(ii)    the ownership, either directly or through Affiliates, of companies that do business with the Company; and/or
(iii)    the ownership of assets, including land, that may be purchased by or leased to the Company.
(e)    Conflict of Interest. Whenever a potential conflict of interest exists or arises between the Manager or any Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Company, any Member or any Person who acquires an interest in a Unit or any other Person who is bound by this Agreement on the other hand, the Manager is entitled to make such decision or take or decline to take such action in his discretion without

obtaining approval from the Members. In such cases, it will be presumed that in making his decisions or taking or declining to take such actions, the Manager upheld his duty of loyalty, his duty of care and his duty to act in good faith, each as clarified herein. In any proceeding brought by the Company, any Member who acquires an interest in a Unit or any other Person who is bound by this Agreement, challenging such action, determination or failure to act, the Person bringing or prosecuting such proceeding shall have the burden of proving that such determination, action or failure to act was not made in a manner consistent with the Manager’s duty of loyalty, duty of care and duty to act in good faith, each as may be clarified herein.
(f)    No Obligation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Manager and his Affiliates or any other Covered Person shall have no duty or obligation, express or implied, to (i) sell or otherwise dispose of any asset of the Company other than in the ordinary course of business or
(ii) permit any Member to use any facilities or assets of any of the Affiliates of the Manager, except as may be provided in contracts entered into from time to time specifically dealing with such use. Any determination by the Manager or any of his Affiliates to enter into such contracts shall be in his or such Affiliates sole discretion.
(g)    Manager’s Determination. To the fullest extent permitted by law and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or in any other agreement contemplated herein or applicable provisions of law or equity or otherwise, whenever in this Agreement the Manager is permitted or required to make a decision (a) in his “consent,” “approval,” “determination,” “sole discretion” or “discretion” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, or any variation thereof, the Manager shall be entitled to act in his sole discretion and absolute discretion and to consider only such interests and factors as he desires, including his own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Company or any other Person, or (ii) in his “good faith” or under another express standard, the Manager shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standard. If any questions should arise with respect to the operation of the Company that are not specifically provided for in this Agreement or the Act, or with respect to the interpretation of this Agreement, the Manager is hereby authorized to make a final determination with respect to any such question and to interpret this Agreement in good faith, and his determination and interpretation so made shall be final and binding on all parties. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, including the preceding provisions of this Section, the Manager shall comply with the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

9.1    Limited Liability of Members.
(a)    Limitation of Liability. Except as otherwise required by applicable law and as explicitly set forth in this Agreement, the debts, liabilities, commitments and other obligations of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, and no Member shall have any personal liability whatsoever in its capacity as a Member, whether to the Company, to any of the other Members, to the creditors of the Company or to any other Person, for the debts, liabilities, commitments or any other obligations of the Company or for any Losses of the Company. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, there shall be no limitations

on liability or right of indemnification under this Agreement for the conduct or actions of any Member that are outside of the scope of such Member’s authority or permitted actions with respect to this Agreement, the Act or other applicable law.
(b)    Observance of Formalities. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the failure of the Company, the Directors or any Member, to observe any formalities or procedural or other requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or management of Company Business and affairs under this Agreement or the Act shall not be grounds for imposing personal liability on any of the Members.
(c)    Return of Distributions. In accordance with the Act and the laws of the State of Texas, a Member may, under certain circumstances, be required to return amounts previously distributed to such Member.
9.2    Exculpation of Covered Persons. Covered Persons shall not be liable for errors in judgment.

Any Covered Person may consult with counsel and accountants, any Member, officer, employee or committee of the Company and other professional expert in respect of Company affairs, and provided such Covered Person acts in good faith reliance upon the advice or opinion of such counsel or accountants or other persons, such Covered Person shall not be liable for any loss suffered by the Company in reliance thereon. Additionally, the Manager may exercise any of the powers granted to it by this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through its agents, and the Manager shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent appointed by the Manager in good faith. If the Act is hereafter amended or interpreted to permit further limitation of the personal liability of Covered Persons beyond the foregoing, then this paragraph shall be interpreted to limit the personal liability of Covered Persons to the fullest extent permitted by the Act, as amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to limit the personal liability of Covered Persons to a greater extent than that permitted by said law prior to such amendment).

punitive damages), fines, settlements and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by such Person in connection with such Proceeding, and indemnification under this Article shall continue as to a Person who has ceased to serve in the capacity that initially entitled such Person to indemnity hereunder; provided, that no such Person shall be indemnified for any judgments, penalties, fines, settlements or expenses (i) to the extent attributable to conduct for which indemnification would not be permitted under the Act or other applicable law, (ii) for any present or future breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by such Person contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement with the Company; or (iii) in any action (except an action to enforce indemnification rights set forth in this Section) brought by such Person. It is expressly acknowledged that the indemnification provided in this Article could involve indemnification for negligence or under theories of strict liability.

9.6    Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Company, by adoption of a resolution of the Manager, may indemnify and advance expenses to any employees or agents of the Company who are not or were not Covered Persons but who are or were serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against liabilities and expenses asserted against such Person and incurred by such Person in such a capacity or arising out of their status as such a Person, to the same extent that it may indemnify and advance expenses to Covered Persons under this Article.

9.10    Savings Clause. If this Article or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless the Directors or any other Person indemnified pursuant to this Article as to costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
9.11    Transactions with the Company.

12.3    Third Party Offer; Right of First Refusal.
(a)    Third Party Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Class A Member (the “Selling Party”) receives a bona fide written offer to purchase all, but not less than all, of such Class A Member’s Units in the Company from a third party (the “Third Party Offer”), and such Selling Party desires to sell all, but not less than all, of such Class A Member’s Units in the Company, the Selling Party shall first give written notice (the “Offer Notice”) to the other Members (other than Series A Preferred Members) stating that the Selling Party desires to sell all of its Units in the Company (the “Offered Interests”) for the price and pursuant to the terms of the Third Party Offer, a full description of which shall be attached to the Offer Notice.
(b)    Right of First Refusal. The other Class A Members (other than the Series A Preferred Members) shall have the option to purchase in proportion to their relative Membership Percentages or as they may otherwise mutually determine between themselves, all, but not less than all of the Offered Interests at a purchase price equal to the lower of the price contained in the Third Party Offer or the Fair Value of the Units and otherwise in accordance with terms substantially equivalent to those terms set forth in the Third Party Offer, such option to be exercised by delivery of written notice of acceptance to the Selling Party within twenty (20) Business Days from each Member’s receipt of the notice and description of the Third Party Offer with closing to occur no later than 90 days from thereafter. (The fair market value of such Units shall be determined by the Company’s then accounting firm, which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto. In the event the Company’s then accounting firm cannot or will not make such determination, then the Company shall retain the services of an appraiser at its expense to make such determination. In the event the Member proposing the Transfer is dissatisfied with such determination, such Member may, at his/her/its expense, retain the services of another appraiser to make such determination. Should there be a difference between the two determinations of fair market value, the Company and the Member proposing the Transfer agree that the fair market value shall be equal to the average of such two determinations.)
(c)    Third Party Offer Sale. If, at the expiration of the twenty (20) Business Day period, the other Class A Members (other than the Series A Preferred Members) have not exercised their option to purchase all of the Offered Interests, then the Selling Party shall be free to sell the Offered Interests to the Person named in the Third Party Offer; provided, that such sale is on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Third Party Offer, such sale is consummated within ninety (90) days of the date of the Offer Notice and such sale complies in all respects with applicable federal and state securities laws, the terms of this Agreement and any other provisions that the Manager and/or Company counsel believe necessary to protect the interests of the Company and its Members.

If a prospective Tag Purchaser(s) refuses to purchase Units from a Tagging Member, the Majority Member(s) shall not sell any Units to such prospective Tag Purchaser(s) unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, the Majority Member(s) shall purchase Units from the Tagging Members for the same consideration and on the same terms and conditions as the Tag Along Sale described in the Transfer Notice. Each Tagging Member that is participating in the Tag Along Sale shall agree as follows:
(i)    to become party to the agreement between the Majority Members and the Tag Purchaser(s), which agreement shall be in form and substance as agreed to by the Majority Members and pursuant to which each Tagging Member will make several and not joint representations and warranties solely regarding his/her/its (A) title to and ownership of the Units to be Transferred by such Tagging Member pursuant to such agreement (including his/her/its ability to convey title free and clear of liens, encumbrances or adverse claims and reasonable covenants regarding confidentiality, publicity and similar matters), (B) authority or power to enter into such agreement and consummate or participate in the transaction in question and (C) other matters particular to a Tagging Member and customary for the type of transaction being consummated;

(iii)    to join in his/her/its pro rata share of any indemnification or other obligations that the Majority Member(s) agrees to provide in connection with such Tag Along Sale (including any escrow, holdback or other similar arrangement); provided, however, that such obligation shall not exceed the aggregate proceeds received by such Tagging Member pursuant to such agreement.
(e)    Consummation of Tag Along Sale. If, at the expiration of the Tag Exercise Period, the Minority Class A Members have not exercised their option to participate in the Tag Along Sale, then the Majority Members shall be free to sell their Units to the Tag Purchaser(s); provided, that such sale is on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Tag Notice, such sale is consummated within ninety
(90) days of the date of the Tag Notice and such sale complies in all respects with applicable federal and state securities laws. In the event the sale is to be consummated on terms other than as set forth in the Tag Notice, such terms shall be deemed to be a new Tag Along Sale which must be offered anew to the Minority Members in accordance with this Section.
12.5    Drag Along and Related Obligations.
(a)    General. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the Manager and a Majority in Interest of the Members approve a Liquidation Event, then each Member hereby agrees with respect to all securities of the Company which it own(s) or otherwise exercises voting or dispositive authority:
(i)    in the event such transaction is to be brought to a vote at a meeting of the Members, after receiving proper notice of any meeting of the Members of the Company to vote on the approval of a Liquidation Event, to be present, in person or by proxy, as a holder of shares of voting securities, at all such meetings and be counted for the purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at such meetings;
(ii)    to vote (in person, by proxy or by action by written consent, as applicable) all Units of the Company as to which it has beneficial ownership in favor of such Liquidation Event and in opposition of any and all other proposals that could reasonably be expected to delay or impair the ability of the Company to consummate such Liquidation Event;
(iii)    to refrain from exercising any dissenters’ rights or rights of appraisal under applicable law (including, without limitation, under the Act) at any time with respect to such Liquidation Event;
(iv)    to execute and deliver all documents and instruments and take such other action in support of the Liquidation Event as shall reasonably be requested by the Company, including to become party to the agreements necessary to consummate the type of transaction being consummated, including any applicable purchase agreement, stockholders agreement, indemnification and/or contribution agreement, which agreements shall be in form and substance as negotiated and agreed to by the Manager and/or the Majority Members, as the case may be, and pursuant to which the Members may make several and not joint representations and warranties solely regarding his/her/its (A) title to and ownership of the Units to be Transferred pursuant to such agreement (including his/her/its ability to convey title free and clear of liens, encumbrances or adverse claims and reasonable covenants regarding confidentiality, publicity and similar matters), (B) authority or power to enter into such agreement and consummate or participate in the transaction in question and (C) other matters particular to a Member and customary for the type of transaction being consummated;

(v)    to take, at the expense of the Company, all reasonably necessary actions in connection with the consummation of the Liquidation Event as requested by the Manager, including executing and delivering any and all consents, waivers and other documents executed by the Company or the Majority Member(s), as the case may be; and
(vi)    to join in his/her/its proportionate share of any indemnification or other obligations agreed to be provided in connection with the type of transaction being consummated (other than any such obligations that relate specifically to a particular Member such as indemnification with respect to representations and warranties given by a Member regarding such specific Member’s title to and ownership of Units); provided, however, that such obligation shall not exceed his/her/its aggregate proceeds received by a Member from the Liquidation Event.
(b)    Voting. During the term of this Agreement, each of the Members agrees to vote all Units now or hereafter owned by such Member, whether beneficially or otherwise, or as to which such Member has voting power at a regular or special meeting of the Members (or by written consent) in accordance with the provisions of this Section. Upon the failure of any Member to vote their Units in accordance with the terms of this Section, such Member hereby grants to the Company a proxy coupled with an interest in all Units owned by such Member, which proxy shall be irrevocable until this Agreement terminates pursuant to its terms or this Section is amended to remove such grant of proxy in accordance with Section 14.5 hereof, to vote all such Units at a regular or special meeting of the Members (or by written consent) as necessary or required to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Member shall be required to vote in the manner described by this Section unless the net proceeds of such Liquidation Event are to be distributed to Members of the Company in accordance with Section 6.2(a) hereof.
(c)    Conditions. The obligations of the Members with respect to a Liquidation Event are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) upon the consummation of the Liquidation Event, each Member shall receive the same portion of the aggregate consideration that such Member would have received if such aggregate consideration had been distributed by the Company in complete liquidation pursuant to the rights and preferences set forth in this Agreement as in effect immediately prior to such Liquidation Event (giving effect to applicable orders of priority); and (ii) upon the consummation of any such Liquidation Event, all the Members shall receive (or shall have the option to receive) the same form of consideration.
(d)    Specific Enforcement. It is agreed and understood that monetary damages would not adequately compensate an injured Member for the breach of this Section by any other Member, that this Section shall be specifically enforceable and that any breach or threatened breach of this Section shall be the proper subject of a temporary or permanent injunction or restraining order. Further, each Member waives any claim or defense that there is an adequate remedy at law for such breach or threatened breach.
12.6    Void Transfer. Any purported Transfer, no matter how effected, by any Member of any Units in the Company in contravention of this Agreement or which does not comply with the terms, conditions and procedures of this Agreement shall be void and ineffectual and shall not bind or be recognized by the Company or any other party and shall not result in a Transfer of any interest in the Company. No such purported assignee shall have any voting rights or any right to any Profits, Losses or Distributions of the Company.
12.7    Effect of Valid Transfer.
(a)    Assignment. A Transfer of Units permitted hereunder shall be effective as of the date of assignment and compliance with the conditions to such Transfer. Profits, Losses and other Company

items shall be allocated between the assignor and the assignee according to Code Section 706, using the “interim closing of the books” or the “daily proration” method selected by the Manager. Distributions made before the effective date of such Transfer shall be paid to the assignor, and Distributions made after such date shall be paid to the assignee.
(b)    Record Owner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the Manager shall be entitled to treat the record owner of any Units or other interest in the Company as the absolute owner thereof and shall incur no liability for Distributions of cash or other property made in good faith to such owner until such time as a written assignment of such Units or other interest in the Company, which assignment is permitted pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Article, has been received and accepted by the Manager and recorded on the books of the Company.
(c)    Rights and Obligations of Assignee. Unless and until an assignee becomes a Substitute Member pursuant to Section 12.8, the assignee shall not be entitled to any of the rights granted to a Member hereunder or under applicable law, other than the rights granted specifically to assignees pursuant to this Agreement or pursuant to the Act; provided, that without relieving the assigning Member from any such limitations or obligations, as more fully described in Section 12.7(e) hereof, such assignee shall be bound by any limitations and obligations of a Member contained herein by which a Member would be bound on account of the assignee’s interest in the Company (including the obligation to make required Capital Contributions with respect to any Transferred Units).
(d)    Acceptance of Benefits. Any Person who acquires in any manner whatsoever any Units or other interest in the Company, irrespective of whether such Person has accepted and adopted in writing the terms and provisions of this Agreement, shall be deemed by the acceptance of the benefits of the acquisition thereof to have agreed to be subject to and bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement that any predecessor in such Units or other interest in the Company of such Person was subject to or by which such predecessor was bound.
(e)    Rights and Obligations of Assignor. Any Member who shall assign any Units or other interest in the Company shall cease to be a Member of the Company with respect to such Units or other interest and shall no longer have any rights or privileges of a Member with respect to such Units or other interest, except that the applicable provisions of Article X (Tax Matters) shall continue to inure to the benefit of such Member in accordance with the terms thereof. Unless and until such an assignee is admitted as a Substitute Member in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.8 hereof, (i) such assigning Member shall retain all the duties, liabilities and obligations of a Member with respect to such Units or other interest, including, without limitation, the obligation (together with its assignee, pursuant to Section 12.7(c) hereof) to make and return Capital Contributions on account of such Units or other interest pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and (ii) the Manager may, in its discretion, reinstate all or any portion of the rights and privileges of such Member with respect to such Units or other interest for any period of time prior to the date such assignee becomes a Substitute Member. Nothing contained herein shall relieve any Member who Transfers any Units or other interest in the Company from any liability of such Member to the Company or the other Members with respect to such Units or other interest that may exist on the date such assignee becomes a Substitute Member or that is otherwise specified in the Act and incorporated into this Agreement or for any liability to the Company or any other Person for any present or future breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by such Member (in its capacity as such) contained herein or in the other agreements with the Company.
12.8    Admission of Substitute Member.
(a)    Admission. An authorized assignee of any Units or other interests in the Company of a Member, or any portion thereof, shall become a Substitute Member entitled to all the rights of a Member

if and only if (i) the assignor gives the assignee such right; (ii) the Manager has granted its prior written consent to such assignment and substitution, if required, which consent may be withheld in the discretion of the Manager; (iii) such assignee shall execute and deliver a joinder agreement or counterpart signature page to this Agreement agreeing to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (iv) such assignee shall execute such other documents and instruments as may be necessary or appropriate to effect such Person’s admission as a Substitute Member, in a form satisfactory to the Manager. In the event of the admission of an assignee as a Substitute Member, all references herein to the assignor shall be deemed to apply to such Substitute Member, and such Substitute Member shall succeed to all the rights and obligations of the assignor hereunder; provided, that the assignor shall continue to remain subject to Section 11.4 (Confidentiality) and Section 12.7(e). Each Member agrees that, notwithstanding the Transfer of all or any portion of its interest in the Company, as between the Member as assignor and the Company, the Member as assignor shall remain liable to return any Distributions previously made to such Member if return of any such Distributions is required by any provision of this Agreement or the Act.
(b)    Timing. Any such assignee will become a Substitute Member on the later of (i) the effective date of Transfer and (ii) the date on which all the conditions set forth in Section 12.8(a) have been satisfied. No further action or consent by the Members shall be required in connection with the admission of Substitute Members to the Company pursuant to Section 12.8(a).
(c)    Failure. In the event a Transferee of a Unit is not admitted as a Substitute Member, such Transferee shall be deemed a mere assignee of Profits only without any voting rights or right, power or authority of a Member hereunder and shall bear Losses in the same manner as its predecessor in interest, and the Transferor of such interest shall thereafter be considered to have no further rights or interest in the Company with respect to the interest Transferred, but shall nonetheless be subject to its obligations under this Agreement with respect to such interest. Additionally, the Transferor shall be deemed to be a defaulted Member. Upon admission of a Transferee as a Substitute Member, the Transferor shall automatically be withdrawn from the Company and be relieved of any corresponding obligations, to the extent of its Transferred Units.
(d)    Costs. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with any Transfer, and, if applicable, the admission of a Person as a Substitute Member, shall be paid by the transferor.
(e)    Update Schedule of Members. Upon the admission of a Substitute Member, the Manager shall update the Schedule of Members to reflect the changes in ownership of Units and Membership Percentages, including the name, address, number and class of Units and amount of Capital Contributions of such Substitute Member and to eliminate the name and address of and other information relating to the assigning Member with regard to the assigned Units and other interests in the Company.
12.9    Admission of Additional Members.
(a)    Admission. A Person may be admitted to the Company as an additional Member only as contemplated under Section 3.5(b)(i) (Additional Capital – Other) or Section 3.7 (Additional Units) hereof and only if such additional Member shall execute and deliver a counterpart of this Agreement agreeing to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and such other documents and instruments as may be necessary or appropriate to effect such Person’s admission as an additional Member, in a form satisfactory to the Manager. Such admission shall become effective on the date on which the Manager determines in its discretion that such conditions have been satisfied and when any such admission is shown on the books and records of the Company. No action or consent by Members shall be required in connection with the admission of new Members to the Company.

(b)    Update Schedule of Members. Upon the admission of an additional Member, the Manager shall update the Schedule of Members to reflect the changes in ownership of Units and Membership Percentages resulting from the issuance of Units, including the name, address, number and class of Units and amount of Capital Contributions of such additional Member.
12.10    Death, Incapacity or Bankruptcy of a Member.
(a)    General. If a Member dies, becomes Incapacitated or a Bankrupt Member (the “Designated Member”), the remaining Member or Members (the “Remaining Members”) shall forthwith become vested with the exclusive obligation, in proportion to their relative Membership Percentages, to purchase the entire right, title and interest of the Designated Member at a purchase price equal to the Fair Value of such interest; provided, however, that such calculation of Membership Percentages shall be made assuming that all Units owned by the Designated Member were distributed to all the Remaining Members pro rata in proportion to their then current Membership Percentages.
(b)    Fair Value. The Remaining Members succeeding to the entire right, title and interest of the Designated Member shall pay to such Designated Member (or his/her/its legal representative) the Fair Value thereof within ninety (90) days of the death of the Designated Member or the Designated Member’s becoming Incapacitated or a Bankrupt Member (such date, the “Purchase Date”); provided, that the Fair Value shall be determined as of a date that is at least thirty (30) days prior to the Purchase Date. In the event the Fair Value is determined by independent appraisal, the cost of each appraiser shall be paid by the party choosing such appraiser; provided, further that payment of Fair Value may be made, in the discretion of the Remaining Members, in cash or an unsecured, 8% interest rate per annum twelve (12) month promissory note.
(c)    Designated Member’s Obligations. A Designated Member (or his/her/its legal representative) whose entire right, title and interest is to be purchased and succeeded to by the Remaining Members pursuant to this Section shall, on or before the Purchase Date, execute and deliver such deeds, bills of sale and other instruments as shall reasonably be requested by such Remaining Members to effect the conveyance and Transfer of the entire right, title and interest of such Designated Member in the Company and shall, to the extent requested by the Remaining Members, cooperate to effect a smooth and efficient continuation of the Company affairs.
(d)    Bankrupt Member. If a Bankrupt Member (or his/her/its legal representative) disputes the right of the Remaining Members to purchase and succeed to the Bankrupt Member’s entire right, title and interest in the Company, such Bankrupt Member (and his/her/its legal representative) shall nevertheless execute instruments and cooperate with the Remaining Members pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, without, however, being deemed to have waived his/her/its rights to damages if the Remaining Members shall have purchased and succeeded to the interest of the Bankrupt Member under this Section without having the right to do so.
ARTICLE XIII
DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION
13.1    Dissolution.
(a)    General. The Company shall be dissolved, its assets disposed of and its affairs wound up upon the first to occur of the following:
(i)    approval of the Manager and of Members holding a Majority in Interest of
the Members;

(ii)    the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under the Act or such other event requiring dissolution under the Act; and
(iii)    a determination by the Manager to dissolve the Company because it has determined that there is a substantial likelihood that due to a change in the text, application or interpretation of the provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws (including the Securities Act), or any other applicable statute, regulation, case law, administrative ruling or other similar authority (including changes that result in the Company being taxable as a corporation or association under U.S. federal income tax law), the Company cannot operate effectively in the manner contemplated herein.
(b)    Specific Occurrences. The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of additional or Substitute Members. The death, retirement, resignation, bankruptcy or dissolution of a Member, or the occurrence of any other event that terminates the continued membership of a Member in the Company, shall not cause a dissolution of the Company.
(c)    Perpetual Existence. Except as otherwise set forth in this Article, the Company is intended to have perpetual existence.
13.2    Authority to Wind Up. Upon the dissolution of the Company as set forth in Section 13.1, the Manager shall have all necessary power and authority required to marshal the assets of the Company, to pay the Company’s creditors, to distribute assets and otherwise wind up the business and affairs of the Company. In particular, the Manager shall have the authority to continue to conduct the business and affairs of the Company insofar as such continued operation remains consistent, in the judgment of the Manager, with the orderly winding up of the Company.
13.3    Accounting. Upon the dissolution of the Company, an accounting shall be made of the assets and liabilities of the Company and the Capital Account of each Member as of the date of dissolution and of the items of Profits and Losses from the date of the last previous accounting to the date of dissolution. The Liquidating Trustee shall cause Financial Statements presenting such accounting to be prepared and certified.
13.4    Distribution of Assets. Upon a Liquidation Event, the assets of the Company shall be distributed as follows in accordance with the Act (the “Liquidating Distribution”):
(a)    first, to creditors of the Company in satisfaction of the liabilities of the Company, including Members who are creditors (other than in respect of Distributions owing to them hereunder);

(c)    third, to establish any necessary reserves, in amounts established by the Manager or the Liquidating Trustee, as the case may be, to provide for other liabilities, including contingent liabilities, if any;
(d)    fourth, if applicable, to the holders of each series of Preferred Units, in such amount and with such allocation as set forth in Section 4.3d; and
(e)    thereafter, to the Common Members in accordance with Section 6.2(a);
provided, that the distribution of cash, securities and other property to a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section shall constitute a complete return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and

a complete distribution to the Member of its Interest and all the Company’s property, and shall constitute a compromise to which all Members have consented within the meaning of the Act. If such cash, securities and other property are insufficient to return such Member’s Capital Contributions or returns thereon, the Member shall have no recourse against the Manager, any of the other Members or Officers of the Company.
13.5    Liquidating Distribution. The Liquidating Distribution shall be made on or before the later to occur of (i) the last day of the Taxable Year of the Company in which the Liquidation Event occurs and (ii) ninety (90) days thereafter (the “Final Liquidation Date”). If the Liquidating Trustee, in its discretion, determines that the Liquidating Distributions will not be timely made, it may distribute all the assets and liabilities of the Company in trust with the Liquidating Trustee, or such other Person as may be selected by the Liquidating Trustee acting as trustee; the purpose of the trust is to allow the Company to comply with the timing requirements under Regulation Section 1.704-1(b). The Liquidating Trustee, acting as trustee of said trust, shall distribute the former Company assets (however constituted, enhanced or otherwise) as promptly as such trustee deems proper and in the same manner as directed in this Section (without regard to this sentence or the preceding two sentences) and otherwise as required hereunder. The trust shall be terminated as soon as possible after the trust property is distributed to the beneficiaries thereof.
13.6    Distributions in Kind. Any Company property distributed in kind shall be transferred and conveyed to the distributees as tenants in common subject to any liabilities attached thereto so as to vest in them undivided interests in the whole of such property in proportion to their respective rights to share in the proceeds of the sale of such property in accordance with this Article.
13.7    Liquidating Trustee.
(a)    General. Upon the dissolution of the Company, the affairs of the Company shall be wound up and terminated and the Members shall continue to share Profits, Losses, Distributions and other items of the Company during the winding up period in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The winding up of the affairs of the Company and the distribution of its assets shall be conducted exclusively by the Liquidating Trustee, who is hereby authorized to do all acts authorized by law for these purposes. The Liquidating Trustee, in carrying out such winding up and distribution, shall have full power and authority to sell, assign, Transfer and encumber all or any of the Company assets. On dissolution of the Company, the Manager shall act as liquidator or may appoint one or more Members as liquidator(s). The liquidators shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The costs of liquidation shall be borne as a Company expense.
(b)    Indemnification. The Liquidating Trustee shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs, damages and causes of action of any nature whatsoever arising out of or incidental to the Liquidating Trustee’s taking of or failure to take any action authorized under, or within the scope of, this Agreement; provided, however, that the Liquidating Trustee shall not be entitled to indemnification for:
(i)    matters entirely unrelated to the Liquidating Trustee’s actions under the provisions of this Agreement; or
(ii)    the fraud, willful misconduct, self-dealing or criminal activity of the Liquidating Trustee.
13.8    Winding Up.    The winding up of the Company shall be completed when all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company have been paid and discharged or reasonably adequate provision

therefor has been made, and all the remaining property and assets of the Company have been distributed to the Members.
13.9    Termination. Upon the completion of the winding up of the Company and the distribution of all Company assets as provided herein, the Company shall terminate and the Liquidating Trustee shall have the authority to execute and record any and all other documents required to effectuate the termination of the Company.
13.10    Return of Capital. The Liquidating Trustee shall not be personally liable for the return of Capital Contributions or any portion thereof to the Members (it being understood that any such return shall be made solely from Company assets).
ARTICLE XIV GENERAL PROVISIONS
14.1    Offset. Whenever the Company is to pay any sum to any Member under this Agreement or pursuant to any other agreement or right, any amounts that such Member owes to the Company under this Agreement or pursuant to any other agreement or right may be offset against and deducted from that sum before payment.
14.2    Notices. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, all notices, requests or consents provided for or permitted to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been received, given or made when (a) delivered personally to the recipient;
(b) telecopied or delivered by electronic mail to the recipient (with hard copy sent to the recipient by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid) that same day) if telecopied or e-mailed before 5:00 p.m. Miami, Florida time on a Business Day, and otherwise on the next Business Day; (c) one (1) Business Day after being sent by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid); or (d) five (5) Business Days after being deposited in the United States mail, addressed to the recipient, postage paid, and registered or certified with return receipt requested. All notices, requests and consents to be sent to a Member must be sent to or made at the address given for that Member on the Schedule of Members on the books and records of the Company, or such other address as that Member may specify by notice to the Company and the other Members. Any notice, request or consent to the Company or the Manager must be given to the Manager at the following address:
To the Company or the Manager:
5304 Blackhawk Dr
Plano, TX 75093

Whenever any notice is required to be given by law, the Certificate or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.
14.3    Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Subscription Agreements (including all exhibits and schedules thereto) contain the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements, arrangements, understandings, proposals, representations and warranties with respect thereto.
14.4    Effect of Waiver or Consent. A waiver or consent, express or implied, to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of its obligations with respect to the Company

is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other obligations of that Person with respect to the Company. Failure on the part of a Person to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any Person in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Person of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute of limitations period has run.
14.5    Amendments.
(a)    General. This Agreement may be amended or modified from time to time only by a written instrument adopted by the Manager and executed and agreed to by Members holding the required number of Units set forth herein; provided, however, that (i) an amendment or modification reducing disproportionately a Member’s Units or other interest in Profits, Losses or Distributions or increasing a Member’s Capital Contribution shall be effective only with that Member’s consent and (ii) an amendment or modification reducing the vote required for any consent or vote in this Agreement shall be effective only with the consent or vote of Members having the Units theretofore required.
(b)    No Member Approval. The Manager may without prior notice or consent of any Member generally make amendments to reflect or effect any of the following:
(i)    to correct any mistake, clerical, technical or other errors, cure any ambiguity or omission in this Agreement, make an inconsequential revision, provide clarity or to correct or supplement any provision herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of this Agreement or to effect the intent of the provisions of this Agreement or that is otherwise contemplated by this Agreement;
(ii)    any increase or decrease in the Units or any class or series thereof;
(iii)    the creation, authorization and/or issuance of additional Units or other limited liability company interests in the Company;
(iv)    the admission of new members and Substitute Members of the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement;
(v)    the cancellation or repurchase of Units or other interests in the Company which have been issued subject to vesting or similar arrangements;
(vi)    that the Units shall be certificated upon determination by the Manager;
(vii)    update the Schedule of Members, including in connection with any of subclauses (ii) through (vi) above;
(viii)    an election for the Company to be bound by any successor statute governing limited liability companies governed by and under the laws of Texas;
(ix)    changes to this Agreement to conform to changes in the Act or interpretations thereof which the Manager believes appropriate, necessary or desirable, provided, that in its opinion such amendment does not have a materially adverse effect upon the Members or the Company;
(x)    the exercise of any power granted to the Manager under this Agreement;

(xi)    changes which, in the discretion of the Manager, are advisable to qualify or to continue the qualification of the Company as a limited liability company in which the Members and the Manager has limited liability under the laws of any state or that are necessary or advisable, in the discretion of the Manager, to ensure that the Company will not be treated as an association taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes;
(xii)    to amend the provisions of Article VI (Distributions; Allocations of Profits and Losses) if the Company is advised at any time by legal counsel that the allocations provided therein are unlikely to be respected for federal income tax purposes, in which case the Manager is empowered to amend such provisions to the extent necessary in accordance with the advice of counsel to effect the plans of allocations and distributions provided in this Agreement (new allocations made by the Manager in reliance upon the advice of counsel described above shall not give rise to any claim or cause of action by any Member), or otherwise to achieve the tax treatment contemplated by this Agreement;
(xiii)    as necessary to reflect the respective allocations, distributions, voting, liquidation and other rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions with respect to new Units or interests issued by the Company, or to effectuate distributions, splits and combinations of Units as contemplated by the Agreement, or to effectuate a modification to the manner in which capital accounts of the Members, or any debits or credits thereto, as contemplated by the Agreement; or
(xiv)    to effect any other amendment that does not have a materially adverse effect on the Members.
14.6    Binding Effect. Subject to the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement is binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Members, and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.
14.7    Governing Law; Severability. THIS AGREEMENT IS GOVERNED BY AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, EXCLUDING ANY CONFLICT OF LAWS RULE OR PRINCIPLE THAT MIGHT REFER THE GOVERNANCE OR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. In
the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any provision of the Certificate or any mandatory provision of the Act, the applicable provision of the Certificate or the Act shall control. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of that provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby and that provision shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.
14.8    Jurisdiction; Venue. Except as provided in Section 14.9, any action or proceeding against the parties relating in any way to this Agreement may be brought and enforced only in the courts of the State of Texas, and the parties irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of such courts in respect of any such action or proceeding. The parties irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in the state or federal courts of the State of Texas and any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in any inconvenient forum. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the parties hereby irrevocably consent to the service of process of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to it at its address as set forth herein. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the parties to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction.

14.9    Waiver of Jury Trial; Expedited Arbitration. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENTS RELATED HERETO.
Any dispute between or among the Manager and the Members or any interpretation of this Agreement shall be submitted to expedited arbitration as provided below (but any damages must be resolved in a court described in Section 14.8). The prevailing party in any arbitration or litigation shall be reimbursed for its arbitration costs (including attorneys’ fees) by the non-prevailing party.
If any dispute arises concerning the interpretation, validity, or performance of this Agreement or any of its terms and provisions, including but not limited to the issue of whether or not a dispute is arbitrable, then the parties shall submit such dispute for binding determination before a retired judge selected from JAMS/ENDISPUTE or any similar organization mutually acceptable to the parties. The parties shall mutually agree on one arbitrator from the list provided by the arbitrating organization; provided, that if the parties cannot agree, then each party shall select one arbitrator from the list, and the two arbitrators so selected shall agree upon a third arbitrator chosen from the same list, which third arbitrator shall determine the dispute. The arbitration shall take place in Collin County, Texas, and shall be conducted in accordance with the then prevailing rules of the arbitrating organization, except as set forth in this Section 14.9. The parties shall have all the same rights of discovery as if the arbitration proceeding were a lawsuit in a court of Texas. The arbitrator shall apply Texas substantive law to the proceeding. The arbitrator shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have the power to grant all legal and equitable remedies, including provisional remedies, and award compensatory damages provided by law; however, the arbitrator may not order relief in excess of what a court could order. The arbitrator shall not have authority to award punitive or exemplary damages. The arbitrator shall prepare and provide the parties with a written award including factual findings and the legal reasoning upon which the award is based. The arbitrator shall not have the power to commit errors of law or legal reasoning or to make findings of fact except upon sufficiency of the evidence. Any award that contains errors of law or legal reasoning or makes findings of fact except upon the sufficiency of the evidence exceeds the power of the arbitrator, and may be corrected or vacated as provided by applicable law in the courts described in Section 14.8. The arbitrator shall award costs and attorneys’ fees in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any Texas court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator, or correct or vacate such award as provided by applicable law. The parties understand that by agreement to binding arbitration they are giving up the rights they may otherwise have to trial by a court or a jury and all rights of appeal, and to an award of punitive or exemplary damages. Pending resolution of any arbitration proceeding, either party may apply to any Texas court of competent jurisdiction for any provisional remedy, including but not limited to a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction, excluding however, any dispute relating to discovery matters, and for enforcement of any such order. The application for or enforcement of any provisional remedy by a party shall not operate as a waiver of the within agreement to submit a dispute to binding arbitration. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 14.9 to the contrary, the failure of any Member or any member of the Manager to enter into, or answer a demand for, arbitration in accordance with this Section 14.9 shall grant the counterparty the right to a default judgment with respect to such dispute, which default judgment may be entered by any Texas court having jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Section shall be construed to the maximum extent possible to comply with the laws of the State of Texas, including the Texas General Arbitration Act (the “Texas Arbitration Act”). If, nevertheless, it shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that any provision or wording of this Section, including any rules of the American Arbitration Association, shall be invalid or unenforceable under the Texas Arbitration Act, or other applicable law, such invalidity shall not invalidate all of this Section. In that case, this Section shall be construed so as to limit any term or provision so as to make it valid or enforceable within the requirements of the Texas Arbitration Act or other applicable law and, in the event such term or provision cannot be so limited, this Section shall be construed to omit such invalid or unenforceable provision.

14.14    Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or the effectiveness or validity of any provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. If the Act is subsequently amended or interpreted in such a way as to make any provision of this Agreement that was formerly invalid valid, such provision shall be considered to be valid from the effective date of such interpretation or amendment.

EXHIBIT C RISK FACTORS

EXHIBIT C
CERTAIN RISK FACTORS
An investment in the Units offered hereby is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. An investment should be made only by investors who can afford the loss of their entire investment. Each prospective investor, prior to making an investment decision, should carefully consider the following Risk Factors in addition to, and in conjunction with, all of the other information provided in and with the Subscription Package to which these Risk Factors are attached and any other information provided to the prospective investor by the Company, including the other Exhibits attached thereto. The Risk Factors reflected below are not intended to be an exhaustive list of all risks involved, but merely a representative listing of certain of those risks currently contemplated by the Company. All references to “we”, “our”, “us” and the “Company” refer to MEDINVEST 1 LLC, a Texas limited liability company.

RISKS RELATED TO THE COMPANY AND THE MANAGER
We are a recently formed developmental stage company with no operating history and we have not yet generated any revenues or achieved profitability.
We are a developmental stage operation with no operating history upon which investors may base an evaluation of our potential future performance. As a result, there can be no assurance that we will be able to develop consistent revenue sources, or that our operations will become profitable even if we are able to invest the funds raised in this Offering in accordance with our business plans. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by entities in the early stages of development. Such risks include, but are not limited to, an evolving business model, developing the business plan, developing the business infrastructure and the management of growth, including but not limited to rental and management of apartment units. We must, among other things manage investments made by the Company and such other activities as are appropriate to managing investments (the “Business”), respond to economic and market variables outside our control, and conduct adequate due diligence. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in meeting these challenges and addressing such risks and the failure to do so could have a materially adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. As development stage companies, we are also subject to risks and or levels of risk that are often greater than those encountered by companies with established operations and relationships. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in meeting these challenges and addressing such risks and the failure to do so could have a materially adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Investors will have no rights in the day-to-day decision making of the Company and have no voting rights.
The Company is a managed by its Manager, Shameem Rana Nazeer (the “Manager”). Day-to- day managerial control of the Company is vested in the Manager, and the Manager has very broad management authority. The investors will NOT have the ability to participate in the management of the Company nor do they have the right to vote on any matters as the Series Preferred Units are non-voting class. Therefore, purchasers of Series Preferred Units do not have the ability to participate in decisions made by the Company.

Control of the Company is vested in the Manager, and the Manager is entitled to be compensated.
Full day-to-day management control over the Company rests with the Manager, and the Investors lack any managerial control over the Company or investments. Therefore, our success is largely dependent on the Manager for the day-to-day management of the business and investments. In addition, the Manager, and consequently the Company, is currently dependent on the continued service and active advisory efforts of the Manager. The loss of the Manager’s services, including if any services of the Manager were to cease or lapse for any reason, may cause the Company to be adversely affected. Manager can be compensated and hire any staff as Manager deems appropriate and be compensated at Manager’s sole discretion in ordinary course of business to consummate and operate business While the Manager intends that such services be provided at competitive market rates, such compensation was not determined through arm’s- length negotiation.

The Company’s success is dependent exclusively on the experience and industry knowledge of the management team.
The Company is dependent entirely on the efforts of the Manager for strategic business direction, development and real estate and non-real estate investment experience. In addition, the success of the Company will be largely dependent on the Manager for the day-to-day management of the business. The loss of its services, including the officers and other employees of the Manager, may have a material adverse effect on the Company. Furthermore, the Manager does not necessarily have direct experience in managing a vehicle of this kind and as a result his ability to be an effective Manager of the Company or otherwise operate the business in a manner that maximizes profitability for the Company is questionable.

Our Manager may have conflicts of interests.
Various actual or potential conflicts of interest may exist among our Manager and its affiliates on one hand, and the Company on the other hand. These conflicts of interests may relate to management of the Company, the Business, the Company’s affiliates, other investments and various other opportunities and scenarios that may arise in the future with the Manager and its affiliates, including the right to control the Company, and the operation and disposition of the Company’s assets, the time, energy and investment opportunities that may be presented to Manager outside its duties with the Company. If a conflict of interest arises, the Operating Agreement limits the remedies available to you in the event of a claim of conflict of interest.
Our Manager, and its Principals, may allocate time to other businesses.
Our Manager is not required and will not devote 100% of its time to Company affairs, which may result in a conflict of interest in allocating time between the Company’s operations and other businesses. Likewise, our Manager, and his affiliation with other entities and business, may require substantial amounts of time, which could limit the ability of Manager to devote time to the Company, and it could have a negative result on the Company’s operations.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
We will be exposed to risks inherent in real estate.
Investments in real estate may be affected by certain risks generally incident to the ownership of real property which are beyond our control. These factors include, but are not limited to, adverse market conditions, general economic conditions, interest rates, increasing construction costs, real estate tax rates, competition from other developers and from other forms of real estate, the rate and timing of delinquencies and defaults on any loans, the quality of any properties we may own, including the possible deterioration of the area where such property is situated, any acts outside our control, including terrorism, acts of God and natural disasters, adverse changes in local employment conditions and environmental issues related to any property.

The Company may have a need for additional financing or change in business plan if the full offering amount is not raised.
There is no assurance that the Company will raise sufficient funds needed to accomplish the Business Plan. As such, the Company may have a need for additional financing. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available or, if available, that it would be obtainable on acceptable terms. If the Company requires any such financing and is unable to procure it, then the Business may then have to curtail the scope of its amenities or change the planned scope of its operations, or otherwise adjust its business plan.
A concentration of our funds in the acquisition and development of real estate may leave our profitability vulnerable to a downturn or slowdown.
We expect to concentrate our funds in the investment in real estate. As a result, we will be subject to risks inherent in investments in owning one property. The potential effects on our revenues, and as a result, on cash available for distribution to our Investors, resulting from a downturn or slowdown in the Business could be more pronounced than if we had more fully diversified our investments.
Local economic downturn and regional and national economic softness could materially and adversely affect our economic performance.
The economic performance of our investment in any real estate or other investments is subject to all of the risks related to adverse changes in national, regional and local economic and market conditions, including inflation, unemployment, and interest rates. Economic conditions could affect the extent and timing of our investment activities and the availability of investments, negatively impacting the Company’s ability to carry out its business or cause it to incur losses.
In the future there may be additional periods of relatively weak economic performance that could reduce demand in the marketplace for our products and services which may have a negative effect on our financial success.
Economic events may adversely impact our business and results of operations.
We are susceptible to weakness in the economy of the U.S. and around the world that could be harmful to our financial position and results of operations. Many parts of the world including the United States are undergoing economic instability. The impacts of instability in the world, downward credit rating of the United States, financial market weakness, lower consumer confidence, terrorist attacks and the United States’ participation in military actions may further

exacerbate current economic conditions. In such events, it may reduce demand for our Business, thereby decreasing our potential revenues and negatively affecting our operating results.

Continued disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions could adversely affect the value of our investments.
Disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions could adversely affect the values of our investments through our ownership of the Company. In the recent past, turmoil in the capital markets has constrained equity and debt capital available for investment in real estate, resulting in fewer buyers seeking to acquire properties and possible increases in capitalization rates and lower property values. Furthermore, declining economic conditions could negatively impact real estate fundamentals and result in declining values in the real estate in which we invest for the Business. As a result, the values of our investments could decrease below the amount we invest; and we may not generate sufficient income to continue the Business as a going concern.

RISKS RELATED TO THE OFFERING AND YOUR INVESTMENT
Investments in the Company should be considered long term investments.
Investors must be prepared to hold their Units for an indefinite and extended period of time since the Manager expects that the Company’s investments may take several years to mature and Investors have limited withdrawal rights in the discretion of the Manager. It is anticipated that a substantial portion of the Company’s investments will consist of investments for which there is no public market and/or which are completely illiquid. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to when or if distributions from the proceeds from a liquidity event with respect to an investment will be made.

The Offering is not registered with the SEC or state securities authorities and there will be no regulatory review or approval of the sale of the Limited Company Interests.
The Offering of the Units will not be registered with the SEC under the Securities Act or the securities agency of any state and no such agency will review or pass upon the sale of the Company Interests. The Unit sare being offered in reliance on certain exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and state securities laws applicable only to offers and sales to investors meeting the suitability requirements set forth in the Subscription Package to which these Risk Factors are attached. No governmental regulatory agency has or will review or pass upon the sale of the Company Interests. As such, prospective investors will not have the benefit of review by the SEC or any state securities regulatory authority. Therefore, you are assuming the task and the risks of assessing the adequacy of disclosure and the fairness of the terms of this Offering on your own, or in conjunction with your personal advisors.
(a)    If we fail to comply with state, federal and international securities laws we may be subject to a rescission action.
The Units are being offered, and will be sold, to investors in reliance upon certain exemptions from the registration requirements provided in the Securities Act and state securities laws, or “Blue-Sky” laws. If we fail to comply with the requirements of these exemptions, it is possible that investors may be entitled to seek rescission of their purchase of the Company Interests, if they so desire. It is possible that one or more investors seeking rescission would succeed. This might also occur under the applicable “Blue-Sky” laws and regulations in states where the Units

will be offered without registration or qualification pursuant to a private offering or other exemption. If a number of investors were successful in seeking rescission, we would face significant financial demands, which could adversely affect us as a whole.

Our failure to comply with federal, state and relevant international securities law and regulations in connection with this Offering could subject us to enforcement actions and impair our ability to raise capital in the future.
We are relying upon exemptions from the registration provisions of federal, state and relevant international securities laws in this Offering. In relying upon such exemptions we have the burden of providing compliance with such laws for this Offering. If for any reason we fail to comply, we may, among other things, subject the Company to both investigations and administrative actions by federal, state or foreign agencies or actions for rescission or for damages. Such actions, if commenced, could have a material adverse effect on our ability to raise necessary capital in the future. While we endeavor to fully comply with all such laws, there is no assurance that any non-compliance will not have material adverse effect on us.

Your investment in the Company is a long-term investment.
Investors should be aware of the long-term nature of their investment in the Company. Prospective investors will be required to represent in writing that they are purchasing the Units for their own account for long-term investment and not with a view towards resale or distribution. Accordingly, purchasers of the Units must be willing and able to bear the economic risk of their investment for an indefinite period of time.
Investors will have a limited ability to liquidate their investment in the Company Interests. The Units have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities law, and may not be resold, including, but not limited to, an assignment for value. The Units may only be resold in the event of such registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. It is likely that investors will not be able to liquidate their investment in the event of an emergency.
To satisfy the requirements of applicable securities laws there is limited transferability and liquidity in the Company Interests.
To satisfy the requirements of certain exemptions from registration under the Securities Act, and to conform to applicable state securities laws, each investor must acquire the Units for investment purposes only and not with a view towards distribution. Consequently, certain conditions of the Securities Act may need to be satisfied prior to any sale, transfer, or other disposition of the Company Interests. Some of these conditions may include a minimum holding period, availability of certain reports, including financial statements from us, limitations on the percentage of securities sold, and the manner in which they are sold. We can prohibit any sale, transfer or disposition unless we receive an opinion of counsel provided at the holder’s expense, in a form satisfactory to us stating that the proposed sale, transfer or other disposition will not result in a violation of applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws and regulations.

Our securities have no public market and no assurance can be given that any public market will ever develop, or if developed that any such market will be sustained.
The Units have not been registered under the Securities Act, and are being offered in reliance upon

exemptions from the registration requirements thereunder in a manner that is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and are only being offered hereunder to “accredited investors” as defined in the Securities Act. The Units cannot be sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, assigned or otherwise disposed of, and unless they are registered under the Securities Act, or if in the opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Company , such sale, transfer, pledge, hypothecation, assignment or disposition is exempt from such registration requirements. The Company has no current intent to file a registration statement with respect to the Units and the Company has not made any representations with respect to the future filing of any registration statement or with respect to effectuating any public offering for the Company Interests. There is currently no trading market for the Units and it is not anticipated that a trading market will ever develop. Accordingly, even in the absence of the foregoing restrictions on transfer, it is unlikely that an investor will be able to readily dispose of the Units or pledge the Units as collateral for a loan. Consequently, the Units are suitable only for long-term investment by persons with no need for liquidity and who can absorb the loss of their entire investment.
There is currently no public or private trading market for the Company Interests.
Because there is no public or private trading market for the Units and no such market is expected to develop, the liquidity and transferability of the Units will be adversely affected. The Units cannot be sold unless they are registered under the Securities Act or are exempt therefrom.
There can be no assurances that we will ever register the Units for resale under federal, state or foreign securities laws. Consequently, you may not be able to liquidate your Units in the event of an emergency or for any other reason. Accordingly, this investment is designed for investors with no need for liquidity and who can afford to bear the risk of losing their entire investment.

The Investors are subject to restrictions on transferability and there is a lack of public market for the Company Interests.
The Units are subject to significant restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except as permitted under the Company Agreement, the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws pursuant to registration or exemption therefrom. Additionally, the Units are not registered under the Securities Act or qualified under the “Blue-Sky” laws of any state or jurisdiction, nor do we have any current intention to seek registration. Currently there is no trading market for the Units and as a result, all Investors should assume the Units are illiquid.

The purchase of Units in the Company is a speculative investment.
Our goals are highly speculative and there is no assurance that we will be able to meet any of them. Our ability to achieve our objectives may be determined by factors beyond our control and that cannot be predicted at this time. Consequently, there can be no assurance that our efforts to start and expand our business operations will prove to be sufficient to enable us to generate the funds require to operate our business. Investors who purchase Units in the Company should be aware that they may not earn a substantial return on their investment and may, in fact lose their investment entirely.
There can be no assurance that you will realize a return on your investment.
No assurance can be given that you will realize a return on your investment or that you will not lose your entire investment. For this reason, you should read the Subscription Package to which

these Risk Factors are attached and all other exhibits attached thereto carefully. Additionally, you should consult with your own personal legal and financial advisors prior to making any investment decision.

We can provide no assurances or certainty as to an investment in the Company being profitable.
There is no assurance that cash flow or profits will be generated by our investments. The lack of cash flow or profits will negatively affect our ability to meet our goals. Neither the Manager nor any of its affiliates is obligated to provide the Investors with a guarantee against a loss on their investment or negative cash flows and neither the Manager nor its affiliates has or intends to provide such a guarantee.
The offering price for the Units was determined arbitrarily.
The offering price for the Units has been determined solely by the Company. The determination of the offering price was arbitrary and bears no inherent relationship to the Company’s assets, book value, net income or any other recognized measure of value. The offering price does not necessarily indicate the current value of the Units offered hereby and should not be regarded as an indicator of any future performance thereof.

RISKS RELATED TO RETIREMENT PLANS
An investment in the Company may not qualify as an appropriate investment for retirement plans.
There are special considerations that apply to pension or profit sharing trusts or IRA’s investing in the securities of the Company and thus you should consult with your financial and retirement plan advisors prior to investing any money from your retirement plan. If you are investing the assets of a Pension, Profit Sharing, 401(k), Keogh, or other qualified Retirement Plan, or the assets of an IRA in the Company, you could incur liability or subject the plan to taxation if:
(i)    Your investment is not consistent with your fiduciary obligations under ERISA under the Internal Revenue Code.
(ii)    Your investment is not made in accordance with the documents and instruments governing your plan or IRA, including your plans investment policy.
(iii)    Your investment does not satisfy the prudence and diversification requirements of Section 40 (a) (1)(B) and 404 (A) (1)(C) of ERISA.
(iv)    Your investment impairs the liquidity of the plan.
(v)    Your investment produces “unrelated business taxable income” for the plan or IRA.
(vi)    You will not be able to value the assets of the plan annually in accordance with ERISA requirements.
(vii)    Your investment creates a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Our assets may be Plan Assets for ERISA purposes, which could subject us to additional restrictions on our ability to operate our business.
ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code may apply what is known as the look-through rule to this investment. Under the look-through rule, the assets of an entity in which a qualified plan or IRA has made an equity investment may constitute assets of the qualified plan or IRA. A fiduciary of a qualified plan or IRA should consult with its advisors and carefully consider the effect of that treatment if that were to occur. We may only accept less than 25% of the gross proceeds of the Offering from Qualified Plans and IRAs.

6 The calculation of “net worth” for purposes of the determining accredited investor status was amended by the federal statute The Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder. The term “net worth” means the excess of total assets at fair market value, including cash, stock, securities, personal property and real estate (other than your primary residence), over total liabilities (other than a mortgage or other debt secured by your primary residence). In the event that the amount of any mortgage or other indebtedness secured by your primary residence exceeds the fair market value of the residence, that excess liability should also be deducted from your net worth. Any mortgage or indebtedness secured by your primary residence incurred within 60 days before the time of the sale of the securities offered hereunder, other than as a result of the acquisition of the primary residence, shall also be deducted from your net worth.

(6)    A natural person who had an individual income in excess of $200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with that person’s spouse in excess of $300,000 in each of those years and who reasonably expects reaching the same income level in the current year;7
(7)    Any trust with total assets in excess of $5,000,000, not formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the securities offered, whose purchase is directed by a sophisticated person as described in Rule 506 (b)(2)(ii) under the Act; or
(8)    Any entity in which each of the equity owners of such entity certifies that he meets the qualifications set forth in either (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6) or (7) above.
