8

appointment of any successor Independent Director, at any time when such resignation or removal would leave the Company without one Independent Director, shall be effective until a successor Independent Director shall have accepted his or her appointment as an Independent Director by execution of an agreement in a form mutually agreed upon by the Company and such successor Independent Director.  In the event that no Person meeting the qualifications therefor, as set forth in the definition of “Independent Director” herein, is then holding the position of Independent Director, the Board shall, as soon as practicable, appoint a successor Independent Director as needed to have at least one Independent Director, and until such vacancy is filled, the Board shall be prohibited from voting on any action in Section 5.1(b).  All right, power and authority of the Independent Director shall be limited to the extent necessary to exercise those rights, and perform those duties, of the Independent Director specifically set forth in this Agreement.  No Independent Director shall at any time serve as trustee in bankruptcy for any Affiliate of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Independent Director, in its capacity as Independent Director, may only act, vote or otherwise participate in those matters relating to those actions set forth in Section 5.1(b).

(b)         The Independent Director shall be elected by the Class A Member.

3.3         Meetings of the Board.

(b)                                 The presence of a majority of the Operating Directors then in office shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of the Board, with the exception of any meeting at which any action described in Section 5.1(b) is considered, which meetings shall require the participation of all Directors. All actions of the Board (other than those described in Section 5.1(b)) shall require the affirmative vote of a majority of the Operating Directors in attendance at such meeting.

(c)          Meetings of the Board may be conducted in person or by conference telephone facilities. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board may be taken without a meeting if such number of Directors sufficient to approve such action pursuant to the terms of this Agreement consent thereto in writing. Notice of any meeting may be waived by any Director.

3.6         Fiduciary Duties of Directors.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, each Director (subject at all times, in the case of the Independent Director, to the second sentence of Section 3.2(a)) shall have a fiduciary duty of loyalty identical to that of directors and officers of business corporations organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended.

3.7         Separate Identity; Limited Liability.  Failure of the Company, or the Members or the Board on behalf of the Company, to comply with the foregoing covenants or any other covenants set forth herein, shall not affect the status of the Company as a separate legal entity or the limited liability of the Members or Directors.

ARTICLE VIII

Exculpation and Indemnification

8.1         Indemnity.  Subject to the provisions of Section 8.4 hereof, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify any Person who is or was party or is threatened to be made party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the Company, by reason of the fact that such Person is or was a Director, Member, Officer, controlling Person, employee, legal representative or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a member, manager, director, officer, partner, shareholder, controlling Person, employee, legal representative or agent of another limited liability company, partnership, corporation, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (each an “Indemnified Person” and collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”), against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if such Person acted in good faith and in a manner which such Person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to a criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such Person’s conduct was unlawful.  The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that an Indemnified Person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such Person’s conduct was unlawful.

8.2         Indemnity for Actions By or In the Right of the Company.  Subject to the provisions of Section 8.4 hereof, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify any Indemnified Person who was or is party or is threatened to be made party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor, against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with the defense or settlement of the actions or suit if such Person acted in good faith and in manner which such Person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such Person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the Company or for amounts paid in settlement to the Company, unless and only to the extent that

15

the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the Person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

8.3         Indemnity if Successful.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify any Person who is an Indemnified Person against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 8.1 or 8.2 or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, to the extent that such Person has been successful on the merits.

8.4         Expenses.  Any indemnification under Sections 8.1 or 8.2, as well as the advance payment of expenses permitted under Section 8.5 unless ordered by a court or advanced pursuant to Section 8.5 below, shall be made by the Company only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Indemnified Person is proper in the circumstances.  The determination shall be made:

(a)          by the Class A Member if the Class A Member was not a party to the act, suit or proceeding; or

(b)         if the Class A Member was a party to the act, suit or proceeding, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion.

8.5         Advance Payment of Expenses. The expenses of each such Indemnified Person incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Company as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an understanding by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.  The provisions of this Section 8.5 shall not affect any rights to advancement of expenses to which personnel other than the Members or Directors, other than the Independent Director, may be entitled under any contract or otherwise by law.

8.6         Other Arrangements Not Excluded.  This indemnification and advancement of expenses authorized in or ordered by a court pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII:

(a)          does not exclude any other rights to which a Person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any agreement, decision of the Class A Member or otherwise, for either an action of any Indemnified Person in its official capacity or an action in another capacity while holding such position except that indemnification and advancement, unless ordered by court pursuant to Section 8.5 above, may not be made to or on behalf of such Indemnified Person if final adjudication established that its acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or knowing violation of the law and were material to the cause of action; and

(b)         continues for a Person who has ceased to be an Indemnified Person and inures to the benefit of the successors, heirs, executors and administrators of such Person.

16

8.7   Limit on Liability. Until the date that is one year and one day after the date upon which the Company has paid all of its debts in full and has no further debts outstanding, each Person bound by this Agreement shall agree, solely on account of any indemnification or other payment owing to such Indemnified Person by the Company under this ARTICLE VIII, not to acquiesce, petition or otherwise invoke or cause the Company to invoke the process of any court or governmental authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining an involuntary case against the Company under any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or any substantial part of the property of the Company, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Company.

8.8   Survival.  The foregoing provisions of this ARTICLE VIII shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

8.9   Amendments. Any repeal or modification of this ARTICLE VIII shall not adversely affect any rights of any Indemnified Person pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, including the right to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses of an Indemnified Person existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

ARTICLE IX

9.2   Tax Treatment.

(a)   The parties acknowledge and agree that the Class B Member is a Member for the sole and limited purpose of restricting the right of the Company to take certain actions as described in Section 5.1(b) and to approve certain amendments to this Agreement and the Certificate of Formation, as described in Sections 5.1 and 9.3.  Accordingly, solely for United States federal income tax and state or local income, franchise and similar tax purposes, the Company, the Class A Member and the Class B Member hereby agree to (i) not treat the Class B Membership Units as an equity interest in the Company and (ii) not treat the Class B Member as a member of the Company.

17

(b)   So long as the Class A Member is the sole owner of all of the Class A Membership Interests of the Company, the Company shall be taxed for federal and applicable state and local income, franchise and similar tax purposes as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and the Class A Member and the Company shall report consistently therewith and timely make or cooperate in, any and all necessary elections and filings for the Company to be so treated.

9.3   Amendments. Amendments to this Agreement and to the Certificate of Formation shall be approved in writing by the Class A Member and, to the extent such amendment would modify Section 5.1 or Section 9.3, the Class B Member.  An amendment shall become effective as of the date specified in the approval of the Class A Member (subject to any required consent of the Class B Member having been first provided) or, if none is specified, as of the date of such approval or as otherwise provided in the Act.

9.4   Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability; provided, however, that the remaining provisions will continue in full force without being impaired or invalidated in any way unless such invalid or unenforceable provision or clause shall be so significant as to materially affect the expectations of the Members regarding this Agreement. Otherwise, any invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by the Members with a valid provision which most closely approximates the intent and legal and economic effect of the invalid or unenforceable provision.

9.5   Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard conflict or choice of law principles that would cause the application of the internal laws of any other jurisdiction), and all rights and remedies shall be governed by said laws.
