Income, gains, losses and deductions with respect to any property (other than cash) contributed or deemed contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for income 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 the contribution or deemed contribution in accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Except as may be determined in the Manager’s sole discretion, the Traditional Method set forth in Section 1.704-3(b)(1) to the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(c) of the Code shall apply.

7.3 Determinations by Manager. All matters concerning the computation of Capital Accounts, the allocation of items of Company income, gain, loss, deduction and expense for all purposes of this Agreement and the adoption of any accounting procedures not expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement shall be determined by the Manager in its discretion. Such determinations shall be final and conclusive as to all the Members. Without in any way limiting the scope of the foregoing, if and to the extent that, for income tax purposes, any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or expense of any Member or the Company is constructively attributed to, respectively, the Company or any Member, or any contribution to or distribution by the Company or any payment by any Member or the Company is recharacterized, the Manager may, in his discretion and without limitation, specially allocate items of Company income, gain, loss, deduction and expense and/or make correlative adjustments to the Capital Accounts of the Members in a manner so that the net amount of income, gain, loss, deduction and expense realized by each relevant party (after taking into account such special allocations) and the net Capital Account balances of the Members (after taking into account such special allocations and adjustments) shall, as nearly as possible, be equal, respectively, to the amount of income, gain, loss, deduction and expense that would have been realized by each relevant party and the Capital Account balances of the Members that would have existed if such attribution and/or recharacterization and the application of this sentence of this Section 7.3 had not occurred. Notwithstanding anything expressed or implied to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event the Manager shall determine, in its discretion, that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto, are computed in order to effectuate the intended economic sharing arrangement of the Members, the Manager may make such modification.

BANKRUPTCY OR OTHER INVOLUNTARY TRANSFER

13.1 Option to Purchase. In the event a Member becomes subject to Bankruptcy or another Event of Involuntary Transfer (an “Involuntary Transferor”), the other Members (the “Surviving Members”) shall have the option to purchase the Membership Interest of the Member as follows:

13.1.1 Upon the occurrence with respect to a Member of a Bankruptcy or Event of Involuntary Transfer, each of the Surviving Members shall have an option, on the terms set forth herein, to purchase the Involuntary Transferor’s Membership Interest for thirty (30) days after the Surviving Members first become aware of the Bankruptcy or Event of Involuntary Transfer by written notice from the Company or a Member.

13.1.2 Each Surviving Member shall have an option to purchase the Involuntary Transferor’s Membership Interest on a pro rata share basis by allocating its Membership Units according to their respective Percentage Interest. The purchase option shall be exercisable for the first thirty (30) days after both Surviving Members first becoming aware of the Event of Involuntary Transfer by written notice from the Company or a Member.

13.1.3 A purchase option may only be exercised by a Surviving Member’s delivery to the Involuntary Transferor and the other Surviving Member of a written notice stating such exercise and agreement to purchase the Involuntary Transferor’s Membership Interest on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 13.1. A copy of the notice of exercise shall be given to any trustee, receiver or other legal representative or holder or transferee of the Involuntary Transferor’s Membership Interest, of which the Surviving Members have been given notice.

13.2 Agreed Value; Appraisal. During the term of the Company, the Manager, and the Members by unanimous consent, may determine and agree semiannually upon the Fair Market Value of the Company in a written statement executed by them referring to this Agreement (the “Agreed Value”). If the Surviving Members shall have elected to purchase the Membership Interest of an Involuntary Transferor, the purchase price of such Membership Interest shall be the product of the Percentage Interest represented by the Involuntary Transferor’s Membership Interest being purchased by the Surviving Members multiplied by the Agreed Value. If no Agreed Value has been determined within the six (6) months prior to the notice of option to purchase, and if the Involuntary Transferor and the Surviving Members purchasing the Involuntary Transferor’s Membership Interest fail to agree on an Agreed Value within thirty (30) days after the date of the notice of option to purchase, the Agreed Value shall be the Appraised Fair Market Value of the Company, less the amount of any debts and liabilities owed by the Company on the closing date.

13.3 Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of an Involuntary Transferor’s Membership Interest pursuant to Section 13.1 shall occur on a date determined by the purchasing Surviving Members which shall be on the later of the tenth(10^th) day after the exercise of the last purchase option or the tenth (10^th) day after the date on which the purchase price due the Involuntary Transferor has been determined in accordance with Section 13.2. The purchasing Surviving Members shall give written notice to the Involuntary Transferor fixing the time and date for the closing of the purchase in accordance with the foregoing. The closing shall at the principal office of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Involuntary Transferor is subject to the jurisdiction of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, then the closing shall be subject to the consent and approval of such Bankruptcy Court. At the closing, the purchasing Surviving Members shall pay to the Involuntary Transferor the applicable purchase price as determined in accordance with Section 13.2 by executing and delivering to the Involuntary Transferor, its or their promissory note in the amount of the purchase price payable with interest at the midterm applicable federal rate as announced by the Internal Revenue Service in effect on the date of closing, payable in four equal annual installments of principal and interest on each of the first four anniversary dates of the note. Said note may be prepaid by the makers in whole or in part at anytime, without penalty or premium. Simultaneously therewith the Involuntary Transferor shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the purchasing Surviving Members such instruments of conveyance, assignment and releases as shall be necessary or reasonably desirable to convey its Membership Interest to the purchasing Surviving Members. Because of the unique and distinct nature of a Member’s Membership Interest, it is agreed that the purchasing Surviving Members’ damages would not be readily ascertainable if the Surviving Members elects to purchase the Membership Interest of an Involuntary Transferor as aforesaid and the conveyance thereof were not made, and, therefore, in such case the purchasing Surviving Member shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance in addition to any other remedies that may be available to it in law or in equity.

13.4 Transfer. In the event a Member becomes subject to Bankruptcy, if the Surviving Members shall not have elected (within the period specified in Section 13.1 above) to purchase the Membership Interest of the Involuntary Transferor as provided above in this Article XIII, the Involuntary Transferor shall, within thirty (30) days thereafter, execute and deliver to the Surviving Members such documents, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the counsel for the Surviving Members, as may be necessary and requisite to evidence and effect the transfer of such Membership Interest to the trustee, receiver or other legal representative or holder or transferee of the Involuntary Transferor’s Membership Interest (the “Third Party Involuntary Transferee”), together with its acceptance of this Agreement and the rights and duties hereunder. If, within ten (10) days after delivery of such documents to the Surviving Members, the Surviving Members shall notify the Third Party Involuntary Transferee of its acceptance of such documents and of the Third Party Involuntary Transferee as a Member, the Third Party Involuntary Transferee shall thereupon be deemed a Member; provided, however, that if the Surviving Members shall not notify the Third Party Involuntary Transferee of its acceptance of such documents and of the Third Party Involuntary Transferee as a Member, then the Company shall be dissolved as provided in Article XIV hereof and the Business shall be sold by the Company at the earliest practical time. Any assignment from such Third Party Involuntary Transferee of the Involuntary Transferor’s Membership Interest thereafter shall be subject to the provisions of Articles XI, XII and XIII of this Agreement.
