CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS, MEMBER INTERESTS,
CAPITAL ACCOUNTS AND FUTURE CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

Section 4.1 Capital Contributions.

(a) Current Capital Contributions. The Members acknowledge and agree that, on or prior to the date hereof, MWE Operating Company and EMG have made the respective Capital Contributions (each, a “Current Capital Contribution”) to the Company in the amounts set forth on Exhibit A, in exchange for the Percentage Interest and the type of Interest set forth on Exhibit A.

(b) Additional Capital Contributions Prior to the Tier 3 Funding Completion Date.

(i) The Class A Members hereby collectively agree to make from time to time additional cash Capital Contributions to the Company, on an as needed basis and as consistent with the applicable Approved Budget, until such time as the Class A Members have an aggregate Account Balance of $750,000,000.00 (such Capital Contributions, the “Tier 1 Class A Contributions”). Such Capital Contributions shall be made upon receipt by each Class A Member of a Capital Call properly made by the Board to such Class A Members for such amount. The Class A Members shall contribute to the Company the amount of capital so requested in proportion to their respective Class A Percentage Interests, within 15 Business Days after receipt of such Capital Call.

(ii) Following the funding of the Tier 1 Class A Contributions, the Class A Members hereby collectively agree to make from time to time additional cash Capital Contributions to the Company, on an as needed basis and as consistent with the applicable Approved Budget (to the extent such cash Capital Contributions are not funded by the Class B Members pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(iii)), until such time as the Class A Members have an aggregate Account Balance of at least $950,000,000.00 (such Account Balance, the “Minimum Class A Investment”). Such Capital Contributions shall be made upon receipt by each Class A Member of a Capital Call properly made by the Board to such Class A Members for such amount. The Class A Members shall contribute to the Company the amount of capital so requested in proportion to their respective Class A Percentage Interests, within 15 Business Days after receipt of such Capital Call. Upon the first to occur of (1) the contribution of the Class A Member’s Initial Capital Contribution, each of the Tier 1 Class A Contributions, and the cash Capital Contributions required pursuant to this Section 4.1(b)(ii), or (2) the occurrence of the Trigger Date (provided that the Class A Members have not defaulted on any obligation to contribute additional capital to the Company prior to the Trigger Date pursuant to a valid request made pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i) or Section 4.1(b)(ii) which such obligation was due prior to and remains uncured as of the Trigger Date), the Class A Members shall thereafter have no obligation to contribute any additional capital to the Company.

(iii) Following the funding of the Tier 1 Class A Contributions by the Class A Members pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i), the Class B Members will have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to fund up to 60% of all additional cash Capital Contributions required by the Company and consistent with the applicable Approved Budget until such time as the Class A Members’ Account Balance equals the Minimum Class A Investment. Such election (1) will be a one-time election to fund up to 60% of all Capital Calls after the Tier 1 Class A Contributions have been funded and until the Class A Members have made Capital Contributions equal to the Minimum Class A Investment and (2) will be made by the Class B Members in connection with the first Capital Call properly made by the Board pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(ii) that includes notice to the Class B Members that the Tier 1 Class A Investments have been fully funded by the Class A Members. If the Class B Members make such election, then such Capital Contributions shall be made upon receipt by each Class B Member of a Capital Call properly made by the Board and the Class B Members shall contribute to the Company the amount of capital so requested as set forth in this Section 4.1(b)(iii) and in proportion to their respective Class B Percentage Interests, within 15 Business Days after receipt of such Capital Call.

(iv) Following the funding of the Minimum Class A Investment by the Class A Members pursuant to Sections 4.1(b)(i) and 4.1(b)(ii), the Class B Members hereby agree to make from time to time additional cash Capital Contributions to the Company, on an as needed basis and as consistent with the applicable Approved Budget, until the occurrence of the Tier 3 Funding Completion Date. Prior to the occurrence of the Tier 3 Funding Completion Date, at each time when the Company requires additional capital, the Board shall issue a Capital Call to the Class B Members, and the Class B Members shall contribute to the Company the amount of capital so requested, in proportion to their respective Class B Percentage Interests, within 15 Business Days after receipt of such Capital Call.

(i) After the Tier 3 Funding Completion Date but prior to the Second Equalization Date: (1) the Class A Members will have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to fund up to 10% of all additional cash Capital Contributions required by the Company and consistent with the applicable Approved Budget or any permitted deviations thereto or pursuant to an Emergency Capital Call (with such aggregate amount being allocated among the Class A Members in accordance with their respective Class A Percentage Interests, or in such other proportions as the Class A Members may mutually agree), in accordance with Section 4.1(c)(ii) below; and (2) the Class B Members hereby agree to make, in accordance with their respective Class B Percentage Interests, from time to time additional cash Capital Contributions to the Company (to the extent such cash Capital Contributions are not funded by the Class A Members pursuant to clause (1) of this Section 4.1(c)(i)), on an as needed basis and as consistent with the applicable Approved Budget, until the occurrence of the Second Equalization Date.

(ii) After the Tier 3 Funding Completion Date and thereafter from time to time as each Class A Member may elect, each Class A Member shall deliver written notice to the Company (which may be delivered by electronic mail) specifying the percentage of the aggregate capital (not to exceed 10%) that may be called by the Company that each Class A Member desires to contribute in each Capital Call issued after the date such notice is given and prior to the Second Equalization Date or, if earlier, the delivery of a subsequent Funding Electing Notice by such Class A Member (each such notice, a “Funding Election Notice”). A Funding Election Notice issued by a Class A Member shall replace any prior Funding Election Notice issued by such Class A Member, and each Class A Member can deliver revised Funding Election Notices at any time, in its sole discretion; provided, that a revised Funding Election Notice shall only be effective with respect to Capital Calls delivered to the applicable Class A Member after the date of the delivery of such revised Funding Election Notice to the Company (and any prior Funding Election Notice shall remain in effect with respect to Capital Calls delivered to the applicable Class A Member prior to such date). If no Funding Election Notice is delivered by a Class A Member, then such Class A Member shall be deemed to have elected not to fund any Capital Contributions with respect to such Capital Call. If a Class A Member delivers a Funding Election Notice to the Company, then such Class A Member will be obligated to make the Capital Contributions as so elected in the then effective Funding Election Notice upon receipt by such Class A Member of a Capital Call properly made by the Board. All Class A Members who so elect pursuant to a Funding Election Notice, and all Class B Members, shall contribute to the Company the amount of capital they are obligated to fund to the Company pursuant to this Section 4.1(c) after the completion of the process described in this Section 4.1(c)(ii) within 15 Business Days after receipt of a Capital Call properly made by the Board or an Emergency Capital Call properly made by the Operator.

(iii) With respect to additional capital required under this Section 4.1(c), the Class A Members and Class B Members will use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in making and communicating funding elections to permit the continued orderly conduct of the Company’s business.

For the avoidance of doubt, after the earlier to occur of the First Equalization Date and the Trigger Date, the Percentage Interests of the Members shall be subject to adjustment (upward and downward) pursuant to this Section 4.1, based upon the Members’ respective Investment Balances giving effect to such additional Capital Contributions made pursuant to this Section 4.1.

(d) Capital Contributions After the Second Equalization Date.

(i) If the Company requires additional capital consistent with the applicable Approved Budget or permitted deviations thereto or pursuant to an Emergency Capital Call after the Second Equalization Date, then the Class A Members and the Class B Members will have the right, but not the obligation, to make additional cash Capital Contributions in proportion to their respective Investment Balances. If the Class A Members or the Class B Members do not elect to make their respective proportionate share of such

additional cash Capital Contributions, or elect to contribute less than the amount set forth in the first sentence of this Section 4.1(d)(i), the Class A Members may elect to contribute such additional capital not contributed by the Class B Members, and the Class B Members may elect to contribute such additional capital not contributed by the Class A Members, as applicable.

(ii) With respect to additional capital required under this Section 4.1(d), the Class A Members and Class B Members will use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in making and communicating funding elections to permit the continued orderly conduct of the Company’s business. The Member(s) electing to fund additional capital pursuant to this Section 4.1(d) shall contribute to the Company the amount of capital so elected within 15 Business Days after receipt of a Capital Call properly made by the Board or of an Emergency Capital Call properly made by the Operator.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Percentage Interests of the Members shall be subject to adjustment (upward and downward) pursuant to this Section 4.1(d), based upon the Members’ respective Investment Balances giving effect to such additional Capital Contributions made pursuant to this Section 4.1(d). If elections to contribute capital by the Members are less than the total amount of capital required by the Company consistent with the applicable Approved Budget pursuant to this Section 4.1(d), then the Company may seek to obtain the requested capital from third parties, which may include issuing additional Interests in the Company pursuant to Section 5.3 and subject to Section 5.6, if applicable.

Section 4.2 Capital Contribution Defaults.

If a Member fails to contribute any capital to the Company that is required to be so contributed pursuant to Section 4.1, such Member shall be considered in default (a “Defaulting Member”), but shall remain fully obligated to contribute such capital to the Company. The Company shall be entitled to pursue all remedies available at law or in equity against the Defaulting Member, including any one or more of the following:

(a) the Company may take all actions, including court proceedings, as the other Members may deem appropriate, to obtain payment by the Defaulting Member of the required amount of the Capital Contribution remaining unpaid, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date that the required Capital Contribution was required to be contributed to the Company until the date it is so contributed, at the cost and expense of the Defaulting Member; and

(b) the non-defaulting Members may advance the portion of the Defaulting Member’s Capital Contribution that is in default, in accordance with the non-defaulting Members’ respective Percentage Interests, and, at the option of the non-defaulting Members, the non-defaulting Members making such advance may be deemed to have made a loan to the Defaulting Member in the amount of the Capital Contribution so advanced, which loan shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date that such advance is made until the loan is repaid in full, and until such loan is repaid in full, the non-defaulting Members making such loan to the Defaulting Member shall be entitled to receive all distributions of Available Cash that would otherwise be payable to the Defaulting Member hereunder, in accordance with the non-defaulting Members’ respective

Percentage Interests (and the amount of distributions of Available Cash and liquidating distributions that would otherwise be payable to the Defaulting Member but that are paid to the non-defaulting Member(s) pursuant to this clause shall first be applied against interest and then against the outstanding principal due); provided that for purposes of maintaining Capital Accounts, any distributions otherwise payable to the Defaulting Member but paid to the non-defaulting Member(s) shall be deemed to have first been distributed to the Defaulting Member and then paid by it to the non-Defaulting Members(s).

Section 4.3 Member’s Interest.

A Member’s Interest shall for all purposes be personal property. Title to the Company’s assets, whether real, personal or mixed and whether tangible or intangible, shall be deemed to be owned by the Company as an entity, and no Member, Manager, Operator or officer of the Company shall have any ownership interest in such Company assets.

Section 4.4 Status of Capital Contributions; Capital Calls.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member, or the successor or assign of a Member, may demand a return of its Capital Contributions, in whole or in part. An unrepaid Capital Contribution is not a liability of the Company or of any Member.

(b) No Member or Affiliate of any Member shall receive any interest, return, compensation or drawing with respect to its Capital Contributions or its Capital Account, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement.

(c) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member shall be required to lend any funds or make any additional Capital Contributions to the Company. No Member shall have any personal liability for the repayment of any other Member’s Capital Contribution or be required to contribute or lend any cash or property to the Company to enable the Company to repay any Member’s Capital Contributions.

(d) The Company, the Board and the Operator will use commercially reasonable efforts to not initiate Capital Calls more frequently than once per calendar month; provided that the Members acknowledge that more frequent Capital Calls may be required in the case of events outside of the ordinary course of business, including in response to emergencies or similar situations.

(e) Capital Calls shall be prepared by the Operator and submitted to the Board for approval (and such submission may be made by email), except as otherwise set forth below for Emergency Capital Calls. If the funding called by the Capital Call is consistent with the Approved Budget in effect at the time of such Capital Call or any deviations therefrom that are permitted pursuant to this Agreement (a “Budgeted Capital Call”), the Board will approve, make and issue the Budgeted Capital Call within 5 Business Days after the Capital Call has been submitted by the Operator to the Board for approval; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operator is expressly authorized to issue a Capital Call to the Members (an “Emergency Capital Call”) without Board approval for expenditures that are reasonably necessary to be expended in order to respond to emergencies, including fires, spills, or any other events that may endanger life, the environment,

or property, and the Operator will report to the Board as soon as practicable the nature of any such emergency that arises, the measures it is taking in respect of such event, and the estimated related expenditures. Any Capital Calls that do not constitute Emergency Capital Calls shall require the approval of the Board.

(f) Not later than 5 Business Days after the submission of any Capital Call by the Operator to the Board for approval that the Operator has designated as a Budgeted Capital Call, either the Class A Members or the Class B Members, may, by delivering a written notice to the Company and the Operator executed by Class A Members with at least 50% of the Class A Percentage Interests or Class B Members with at least 50% of the Class B Percentage Interests, respectively (such notice, a “Capital Call Dispute Notice”), dispute whether such Capital Call was called for the funding of capital consistent with the capital requirements contemplated by the Approved Budget in effect at the time of such Capital Call or any permitted deviations thereto. The Parties will work together in good faith to resolve any such dispute as promptly as practicable. If any such dispute is not resolved within 5 Business Days after receipt of the Capital Call Dispute Notice, then any such dispute shall, as promptly as practicable, be submitted to binding arbitration in a manner consistent with the process contemplated by Section 6.15(d), except that the Arbitration Panel shall render its decision as to whether such Capital Call was called for the funding of capital consistent with the capital requirements contemplated by the applicable Approved Budget or permitted deviations thereto no later than 5 Business Days after the selection of the chairman of the Arbitration Panel. If the Arbitration Panel determines that such Capital Call (or a portion thereof) was made for such purpose, such Capital Call (or such portion thereof) will be considered a duly made Budgeted Capital Call for all purposes of this Agreement, shall automatically be deemed approved, made and issued by the Board, and shall be required to be funded in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement. If the Arbitration Panel determines that such Capital Call (or a portion thereof) was not made for such purpose, such Capital Call (or such portion thereof) shall not be subject to the approval provisions thereof and shall not be required to be approved, made and issued by the Board unless otherwise approved by the Board. The Arbitration Panel shall have the power to extend the time periods set forth in this Agreement regarding the funding of Capital Calls to the extent necessary to permit the Arbitration Panel to render its decision and to allow the applicable Members not more than 10 days after the rendering of such decision to fund any amounts that the Arbitration Panel determines were part of a Budgeted Capital Call.

Section 4.5 Capital Accounts.

(a) A separate Capital Account shall be established and maintained for each Member in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). The original Capital Account established for any Member who acquires an Interest by virtue of an assignment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be in the same amount as and shall replace the Capital Account of the assignor of such Interest. To the extent such Member acquires less than all of the Interest of the assignor of the Interest so acquired by such Member, the original Capital Account of such Member and its Capital Contributions shall be in proportion to the Interest it acquires, and the Capital Account of the assignor who retains an Interest shall be reduced in proportion to the Interest it retains.

(b) The Capital Account of each Member shall be maintained in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) to such Member’s Capital Account there shall be credited such Member’s Capital Contributions, such Member’s distributive share of Profits, special allocations of income and gain, and the net amount of any Company liabilities that are assumed by such Member or that are secured by any Company assets distributed to such Member;

(ii) to such Member’s Capital Account there shall be debited the amount of cash and the Gross Asset Value of any Company assets distributed to such Member pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, such Member’s distributive share of Losses, special allocations of loss and deduction, and the net amount of any liabilities of such Member that are assumed by the Company or that are secured by any property contributed by such Member to the Company;

(iii) in determining the amount of any liability for purposes of this Section 4.5(b), there shall be taken into account Section 752(c) of the Code and any other applicable provisions of the Code and the Treasury Regulations; and

(iv) the Capital Accounts shall be increased or decreased upon a revaluation of Company property pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of Gross Asset Value in the manner prescribed in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), and for the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that Capital Contributions made by a Member pursuant to Section 4.1(b), Section 4.1(c), Section 4.1(d) or Section 4.1(e) shall be treated as the exercise of a “noncompensatory option,” as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.721-2(f).

Section 4.6 Capital Accounts Generally.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, whenever it is necessary to determine the Capital Account of any Member for any purpose hereunder, the Capital Account of such Member shall be determined after giving effect to all adjustments provided for in Section 4.5 for the current Fiscal Year in respect of transactions effected prior to the date such determination is to be made.

(b) No Member shall be entitled to withdraw any part of its Capital Account, or to receive any distribution from the Company except as specifically provided in this Agreement.

Section 4.7 Account Balances.

The Company shall maintain an account for each Member, the balance of which (such Member’s “Account Balance”) shall equal the sum of such Member’s Current Capital Contribution and any additional Capital Contributions made by a Member pursuant to Sections 4.1(b), 4.1(c) and 4.1(d). An assignee of all or any portion of an Interest shall succeed to a portion of the assignor Member’s Account Balance in proportion to the Interest acquired.

Section 4.8 Investment Balances.

The Company shall maintain an account (an “Investment Account”) for each Member, the balance of which (with respect to each Member, such Member’s “Investment Balance”) shall be determined in accordance with the following:

(a) With respect to each Class B Member, as of any date of determination, such Class B Member’s Investment Balance shall be equal to such Class B Member’s Account Balance, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 4.9(e) and in connection with any disposition made pursuant to Article 7.

(b) With respect to each Class A Member, as of any date of determination:

(i) if such date of determination occurs prior to the date on which the aggregate Account Balances of all Class A Members exceed $500,000,000, then such Class A Member’s Investment Balance shall be equal to such Class A Member’s Account Balance, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 4.9(e) and in connection with any disposition made pursuant to Article 7; and

(ii) if such date of determination occurs on or after the date on which the aggregate Account Balances of all Class A Members exceed $500,000,000, then such Class A Member’s Investment Balance shall be equal to such Class A Member’s Account Balance plus such Class A Member’s Investment Balance Preference Amount, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 4.9(e) and in connection with any disposition made pursuant to Article 7.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Class A Members shall accrue Investment Balance Preference Amounts only during periods, if any, ending on or before December 31, 2016 in which the aggregate Account Balances of all Class A Members exceed $500,000,000 as of the end of such period. No Investment Balance Preference Amounts shall accrue to the Class A Members after December 31, 2016.

(i) “Investment Balance Preference Base Amount” means, with respect to each Class A Member, an amount, calculated, as applicable, (A) on the last day of each calendar quarter (to the extent the aggregate Account Balances of all Class A Members exceed $500,000,000 as of such determination date) and ending on or prior to December 31, 2016 and (B) on the day before any liquidation subject to Section 13.4 that occurs on or prior to December 31, 2016, equal to **

(iii) “Investment Balance Preference Rate” means **

Section 4.9 2016 True-Up.

(a) On **, the Company or the Operator shall deliver to the Class A Members the Investment Balances of the Members, and the projected Investment Balances as of December 31, 2016. If the aggregate Investment Balances of all Class B Members are not projected to equal at least 51% of the aggregate Investment Balances of all Members on December 31, 2016, then the Class A Members may, by delivering a written notice (a “True-Up Election Notice”) executed by each of the Class A Members to the Class B Members **, elect (a “True-Up Election”) to require the Class B Members (in proportion to their respective Class B Percentage Interests, or in such other proportions as the Class B Members may mutually agree) to purchase sufficient Class A Interests (the Class A Interests to be so purchased, by each Class B Member from each Class A Member, collectively, the “True-Up Transferred Interests”) from the Class A Members, with the Class A Interests to be acquired from each Class A Member to be allocated among the Class A Members in accordance with their respective Class A Percentage Interests, or in such other proportions as the Class A Members may mutually agree (such acquisitions, collectively, the “True-Up Acquisition”), at the True-Up Price, such that immediately following the True-Up Acquisition, the aggregate Investment Balances of the Class B Members equal 51% of the aggregate Investment Balances of all Class A Members and Class B Members based on actual Investment Balances of all Members on December 31, 2016 (the aggregate amount by which the Investment Balances of the Class B Members increases in connection with the True-Up Acquisition is referred to as the “Aggregate True-Up Price,” and, with respect to any Class A Member participating in the True-Up Acquisition, the “True-Up Price” refers to the product of (x) its Class A Percentage Interest or in such other proportions as the Class A Members may mutually agree and (y) the Aggregate True-Up Price). ** For the avoidance of doubt, if the aggregate Investment Balances of all Class B Members were projected pursuant to Section 4.9(a) not to equal at least 51% of the aggregate Investment Balances of all Members on December 31, 2016, but are equal to at least 51% of the aggregate Investment Balances of all Members on December 31, 2016, the True-Up Acquisition shall not be consummated.

(b) If the Class A Members do not timely deliver a True-Up Election Notice to the Class B Members pursuant to Section 4.9(a), then the Class A Members will be deemed to have elected not to have made a True-Up Election. If the Class A Members do timely deliver a True-Up Election Notice to the Class B Members pursuant to Section 4.9(a), then the Class A Members will be deemed to have timely made a True-Up Election and the Class B Members shall be required to consummate the True-Up Acquisition on or prior to March 1, 2017, and the True-Up Acquisition shall be deemed to be effective as of January 1, 2017. In the event of a True-Up Election, no preference shall accrue to the Investment Balances of the Class A Members on or after January 1, 2017, provided that any prior accrual shall continue to be allocated to such Investment Balances.

(c) In the event any Class B Member does not purchase its share of the True-Up Transferred Interests pursuant to Section 4.9, then in addition to any other rights the Class A Members may have at law or in equity:

(i) the Class A Members may take all actions, including court proceedings, as the Class A Members may deem appropriate, to obtain payment by such Class B Member of the amount required to purchase such True-Up Transferred Interests, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the scheduled True-Up Closing Date until the date such Class B Member so purchases such True-Up Transferred Interests, at the cost and expense of such Class B Member;

(ii) The Class A Members may advance any portion of the funds required for such Class B Member to purchase the True-Up Transferred Interests, and, at the option of EMG, EMG may be deemed to have made a loan to such Class B Member in the amount of the funds so advanced, which loan shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date that such advance is made until the loan is repaid in full, and until such loan is repaid in full, EMG shall be entitled to receive all distributions of Available Cash that would otherwise be payable to such Class B Member hereunder, in accordance with such Class B Member’s Percentage Interest;

(iii) EMG shall be entitled, at its option, to cause the Company to remove MWE Operating Company as the Operator and the Class A Members may, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6.11, in their sole discretion, cause the Company to designate EMG or its designee as the Operator and enter into a new services agreement with such new Operator (and, upon such removal, the Services Agreement shall terminate in accordance with its terms) only if **; and

(iv) If any Class B Member does not purchase its share of True-Up Transferred Interests in accordance with Section 4.9(a), ** Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Class B Member who failed to purchase its share of True-Up Transferred Interests **

(d) The closing of the True-Up Acquisition shall take place on the date (which may not be later than March 1, 2017, nor earlier than January 1, 2017, subject to extension to the extent necessary to pursue any required regulatory approvals, including to allow for the expiration or termination of all waiting periods under the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976) (the “True-Up Closing Date”) designated by the Class B Members in a written notice delivered to the Class A Members within 15 days after the timely delivery of a True-Up Election Notice. The Class B Members (in proportions determined in accordance with Section 4.9(a)) will pay for the True-Up Transferred Interests by wire transfer of funds equal to the Aggregate True-Up Price on the True-Up Closing Date. The Class B Members will be entitled to require all of the signatures of Class A Members selling True-Up Transferred Interests on any documents or agreements executed in connection with such purchase to be notarized and to receive representations and warranties from each such Class A Member regarding: (i) such Class A Member’s power, authority and legal capacity to enter into and consummate such sale and to transfer valid right, title and interest in such True-Up Transferred Interests; (ii) such Class A Member’s valid title to and ownership of such True-Up Transferred Interests and the absence of any liens, security interests, pledges (including any EMG Pledge), and other encumbrances on such True-Up Transferred Interests (excluding those arising

under applicable securities Laws or the organizational documents of the Company); (iii) the absence of any violation, default, or acceleration of any agreement or instrument pursuant to which such Class A Member or its assets are bound as the result of such sale; and (iv) the absence of, or compliance with, any governmental or third party consents, approvals, filings or notifications required to be obtained or made by such Class A Member in connection with such sale. The Class A Members will be entitled to require all of the signature pages of the Class B Members purchasing True-Up Transferred Interests on any documents or agreements executed in connection with such purchase to be notarized and to receive representations and warranties from each such Class B Member regarding: (i) such Class B Member’s power, authority and legal capacity to enter into and consummate the purchase of such True-Up Transferred Interests; (ii) the absence of any violation, default, or acceleration of any agreement or instrument pursuant to which such Class B Member or its assets are bound as the result of such sale; and (iii) the absence of, or compliance with, any governmental or third party consents, approvals, filings or notifications required to be obtained or made by such Class B Member in connection with such purchase.

(e) In connection with the True-Up Acquisition, (i) the Class A Interests acquired by the Class B Members in the True-Up Acquisition will be automatically and permanently converted into Class B Interests, (ii) the Account Balances and Investment Balances of the Class B Members acquiring such converted Interests will be increased by the amount of the Account Balances and Investment Balances, immediately prior to the True-Up Acquisition, of each Class A Member that sold Interests in the True-Up Acquisition that is proportionate to the percentage of the Class A Interests sold by such Class A Member in the True-Up Acquisition relative to the Class A Interests held by such Class A Member immediately prior to the True-Up Acquisition and (iii) the Account Balances and Investment Balances of each such Class A Member shall decrease by the same amounts, respectively.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, after the consummation of the True-Up Acquisition, additional Capital Contributions shall be made to the Company in accordance with Section 4.1(b), after giving effect to the adjustments to the Member’s Account Balances and Investment Balances contemplated by Section 4.9(e).

Section 5.3 Additional Members.

(a) After the Board makes a Capital Call pursuant to Section 4.1(d) that was not fully funded by the Members and subject to the preemptive rights set forth in Section 5.6 to the extent applicable, the Member(s) who fully funded such Capital Call in proportion to their respective Account Balances may, at such Members’ option, elect to cause the Company, without first obtaining Board approval or Requisite Member Approval, to issue additional Interests and to admit any Person as an additional member of the Company (each, an “Additional Member” and collectively, the “Additional Members”).

Section 5.4 Confidentiality Obligations of Members.

(a) Each Member agrees that all Confidential Information shall be kept confidential by the Member, shall only be used for the purpose of reviewing and evaluating the performance of the Company and the Member’s Interest therein, and shall not be disclosed in any manner, except to such of the Member’s Representatives who have a need to know and who agree to be, or are otherwise, bound by the Member’s obligations hereunder and except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Section 5.4. Each Member shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 5.4 by itself or any of its Representatives, and each Member covenants and agrees that it shall promptly notify the Company of any actual, potential or threatened breach of this Section 5.4 and shall, at its own expense, enforce, and assist the Company in its enforcement of, the provisions of this Section 5.4, including, to the extent reasonably necessary, seeking specific enforcement through court proceedings. Subject to Section 5.4(b), if a Member or any of its Representatives is requested or required by applicable law, rule or regulation, regulatory authority, subpoena, civil investigation, court order, demand or similar legal process to disclose any Confidential Information, the Member shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, provide the Company with prompt written notice thereof and will use reasonable efforts to resist disclosure, until an appropriate protective order or motion to quash may be sought or a waiver of compliance with this Section may be granted. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, such Member or any of its Representatives is, in the opinion of its legal counsel, legally required to disclose Confidential Information, then such Member or its Representatives may disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information legally required to be disclosed, without liability hereunder, provided, that such Member or its Representatives uses reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information. Each Member acknowledges and agrees that the Company and the other Members may be irreparably harmed by disclosure of the Confidential Information, that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Section 5.4 by such Member or its Representatives and that, in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity, specific performance and injunctive or other equitable remedies shall be available to the Company and the Members as a remedy for any such breach or threatened breach, without the requirement of posting bond or other security. The Company and the other Members shall be entitled to recover their costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with any successful action brought by them to enforce the terms of this Agreement. With respect to Confidential Information that is subject to confidentiality agreements under any third party confidentiality agreements, in addition to complying with the confidentiality obligations set forth herein, each Member covenants and agrees to, and shall cause its Representatives to, treat such Confidential Information confidentially in accordance with, and to comply with the terms of, the confidentiality provisions contained in those third party confidentiality agreements that have been disclosed and delivered to such Member, including, any provisions thereof that impose more stringent or additional obligations than those set forth herein (provided such has been disclosed and delivered to such Member). The obligations of a Member

pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall continue following the time such Person ceases to be a Member, but thereafter such Person shall not have the right to enforce the provisions hereof. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein, all covenants made herein by a Member are for the sole benefit of the Company and the other Members and there shall be no third party beneficiaries of any of such covenants.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each Member may disclose any information about the Company, including any Confidential Information, without any liability to the Company or to any other Member or to their respective Affiliates and without any notice to any Member, to the extent that such disclosing Member believes that such disclosure is necessary or appropriate to satisfy its public disclosure obligations under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the rules of any stock exchange, or any similar public disclosure obligations.

Section 5.6 Preemptive Rights.

(a) Subject to the Class A Member(s) or Class B Member(s) obligation or right to contribute additional capital as set forth in Section 4.1, prior to the Company issuing any Interests or options or rights to acquire Interests (other than (i) any equity issuance associated with an acquisition previously approved by EMG, (ii) Interests issued in connection with any split, distribution or recapitalization of the Company, (iii) Interests issued in any initial public offering registration statement filed under the Securities Act, or (iv) in connection with any capital raising or financing efforts by the Company the purpose of which is to fund any activities of the Company which were the subject of a Capital Call made pursuant to Section 4.1(d) that was not fully funded by the Members; provided, however, that any Interests to be issued in such capital raising or financing efforts, and the pricing of such Interests, are equivalent to the terms of such Capital Call), whether through exchange, conversion or otherwise (the “New Interests”), to a proposed third party purchaser (the “Proposed Purchaser”), each Member who is not in default of this Agreement and which certifies to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that it is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act (an “Eligible Member”) shall have the right to purchase a portion of the New Interests in accordance with this Section 5.6.

(b) The Company shall give each Eligible Member prior written notice (the “First Notice”) of any proposed issuance of New Interests, which shall set forth in reasonable detail the proposed terms and conditions thereof (as determined by the Board in good faith) and shall offer to each Eligible Member the opportunity to purchase its Percentage Interest (as of the date of such notice) of the New Interests, on the same terms and conditions and at the same time as the New Interests are proposed to be issued by the Company. If any Eligible Member desires to exercise its preemptive rights under this Section 5.6, it must deliver an irrevocable written notice within 30 days

after the Eligible Member’s receipt of the First Notice (the “Election Period”) setting forth the dollar amount of the New Interests the Eligible Member (the “Electing Member”) is electing to purchase, up to its Percentage Interest plus any additional amount of New Interests it desires to purchase in excess of its Percentage Interest (the “Over-Allotment Amount”) if other Eligible Members do not exercise their preemptive rights hereunder. The right of each Electing Member to purchase New Interests in excess of its Percentage Interest shall be based on the relative Percentage Interests of the Electing Members desiring to purchase Over-Allotment Amounts.

(c) If the Eligible Members do not subscribe for all of the New Interests, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to issue and sell the unsubscribed portion of the New Interests to the Proposed Purchaser at any time during the 90 days following the end of the Election Period, at the same price and pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the First Notice. The Board may, in its reasonable discretion, impose such other reasonable and customary terms and procedures such as setting a closing date and requiring customary closing deliveries in connection with any preemptive rights offering. In the event any Electing Member refuses to purchase the New Interests for which it subscribed pursuant to this Section 5.6, then in addition to any other rights the Company may have at law or in equity, such Electing Member and any transferee thereof shall not be considered an Eligible Member for any future rights granted under this Section 5.6 unless the Board expressly designates otherwise (which the Board may, in its sole discretion, do on an offer-by-offer basis or not at all) and shall be deemed a Defaulting Member under Section 4.2.

Section 5.7 Registration Rights.

If the Board with Requisite Member Approval determines to effect a Qualified Public Offering, each of the Members shall be granted customary registration rights, including piggyback registration rights, with respect to such Qualified Public Offering.

Except in the case of resignation by reason of withdrawal, the resignation of a Manager who is also a Member pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall not affect such Manager’s rights as a Member and shall not constitute a withdrawal of such Member.

Section 6.8 Removal.

Subject to Section 6.2(b), a Manager may only be removed by the consent of the Member or Members then entitled to designate such Manager in accordance with Section 6.2. The removal of a Manager who is also a Member shall not affect such Manager’s rights as a Member and shall not constitute a withdrawal of such Member.

ARTICLE 7

ASSIGNABILITY OF MEMBER INTERESTS

Section 7.1 Permitted Transfers.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Permitted Transfers” shall include the following: (x) a Member may Transfer all or a portion of its Interest to any of its Affiliates, (y) Interests held by any member of the MWE Operating Company Group may be (i) Transferred, in whole or in part, in connection with any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of MWE, MPLX, MPLX GP or MPC, or (ii) indirectly Transferred by way of a sale of Control of MWE, MPLX, MPLX GP or MPC, or any merger of MWE, MPLX, MPLX GP or MPC with or into, or any consolidation of MWE, MPLX, MPLX GP or MPC into, any other entity and (z) Interests held by EMG may be transferred to the limited partners of EMG, if and to the extent required by the governance documents of EMG. In the event of a Transfer pursuant to the foregoing clause (z), the EMG Group shall designate a single representative to exercise all of the EMG Group’s rights hereunder. If a Member Transfers an Interest in a Permitted Transfer in accordance with this Section 7.1, such Transfer shall entitle the assignee to become a Substitute Member and to exercise or receive the rights, powers or benefits of a Member if the assigning Member designates, in a written instrument delivered to the Board and the other Members, its assignee to become a Substitute Member and such assignee executes an instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Board, which shall include an acceptance and agreement by the Substitute Member to abide by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. A Member may not Transfer Interests in a Permitted Transfer if such Permitted Transfer has as a purpose the avoidance of the restrictions on Transfers in this Agreement (it being understood that the purpose of this sentence is to prohibit the Transfer of Interests to a transferee in a Permitted Transfer followed by a change in the relationship between the transferor and the transferee (or a change of Control of such transferor or transferee) after the Permitted Transfer with the result and effect that the transferor has indirectly Transferred Interests to a transferee in a Transfer which would not have been directly permitted as a Permitted Transfer under this Section 7.1 had such change in such relationship occurred prior to such Transfer).

Section 7.2 Transfers.

A Member may Transfer its Interest, or any portion thereof, without the consent of any other Member or the Board, provided, that such Member complies with the requirements of this Section 7.2 in all instances except for (x) Permitted Transfers, (y) Transfers in a True-Up Acquisition consummated in accordance with Section 4.9 or (z) a Class A Foreclosure or a Transfer of a Foreclosed Interest to a Succeeding Member in accordance with Section 7.8:

(a) In the event that a Member (the “Transferring Member”) desires to Transfer, directly or indirectly, all or any portion of its Interest (the “ROFO Interest”) and such Transfer is not a Transfer described in clauses (x), (y) or (z) in the introductory paragraph of this Section 7.2, then the Transferring Member shall give written notice thereof to the other Members (the “Remaining Members”). For a period of 30 days thereafter, all or a portion of the Remaining Members shall have the right, but not the obligation, to submit a written offer to purchase the ROFO Interest (with each offering Remaining Member to purchase its pro rata portion of the ROFO Interest as is determined in accordance with the respective Percentage Interests of the Remaining Members, or such other portion as the Remaining Members may mutually agree upon) (the “ROFO Offer”), on such terms and conditions as the offering Remaining Members may determine and which terms and conditions shall be described in the ROFO Offer. Upon receipt of the ROFO Offer, the Transferring Member may elect in its sole discretion to accept or reject the ROFO Offer.

(i) In the event that the Transferring Member elects to accept the ROFO Offer, then the Transferring Member shall be bound to Transfer to the offering Remaining Members, and the offering Remaining Members shall be bound to purchase from the Transferring Member, the ROFO Interest on the terms and conditions set forth in the ROFO Offer (with such modifications as may be mutually agreed upon by the offering Remaining Members and the Transferring Member), and the closing of such Transfer of the ROFO Interest shall occur within 30 days of the Transferring Member’s acceptance of the ROFO Offer or on such other date as may be set forth in the ROFO Offer (subject to extension to the extent necessary to pursue any required regulatory approvals, including to allow for the expiration or termination of all waiting periods under the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976).

(ii) In the event that the Transferring Member rejects the ROFO Offer, then for a 60-day period after the date on which the Transferring Member rejects the ROFO Offer (the “Solicitation Period”), the Transferring Member may solicit an offer to purchase the ROFO Interest from one or more third parties as the Transferring Member may determine in its discretion. If the Transferring Member receives a third party offer (a “Third Party Offer”) to purchase the ROFO Interest within the Solicitation Period, and the consideration payable for the ROFO Interest pursuant to such Third Party Offer exceeds the consideration payable for the ROFO Interest pursuant the ROFO Offer (such Third Party Offer is referred to as a “Qualifying Third Party Offer”), the Transferring Member may elect to Transfer the ROFO Interest to such third party in accordance with the Qualifying Third Party Offer within 30 days after the end of the Solicitation Period, subject to the Transferring Member’s compliance with the provisions of Sections 7.2(a)(iii) and 7.2(b). Any noncash consideration set forth in the ROFO Offer or a Third Party Offer shall be valued at its fair market value, as agreed by the Transferring Member and the offering Remaining Members, and failing such agreement, as determined by an independent third party appraiser selected by the Transferring Member and reasonably acceptable to the offering Remaining Members (the costs for which third party appraiser shall be shared equally by the Transferring Member, on the one hand, and the offering Remaining Members, on the other hand). The Transferring Member may not Transfer the ROFO Interest to any third party pursuant to a Third Party

Offer that is not a Qualifying Third Party Offer without the offering Remaining Members’ prior written consent, which may be withheld in their sole discretion. Such transferee shall become a Substitute Member if the Transferring Member designates, in a written instrument delivered to the Board and the other Members, the transferee to become a Substitute Member and such transferee executes an instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Board, which shall include an acceptance and agreement by the Substitute Member to abide by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If such closing does not occur within the required 30-day period, then the ROFO Interest in question shall once again become subject to the restrictions of this Section 7.2, and the Transferring Member shall no longer be permitted to Transfer such ROFO Interest without again fully complying with the provisions of this Section 7.2.

(iii) Prior to the Transferring Member electing to Transfer the ROFO Interest to a third party in accordance with a Qualifying Third Party Offer pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(ii), the Transferring Member must comply with this Section 7.2(a)(iii). Prior to accepting a Qualifying Third Party Offer pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(ii), the Transferring Member shall give written notice thereof to the other Members. For a period of 15 days thereafter, the Remaining Members shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the ROFO Interest (with each offering Remaining Member to purchase its pro rata portion of the ROFO Interest as is determined in accordance with the respective Percentage Interests of the Remaining Members, or such other portion as the Remaining Members may mutually agree upon) at ** the price proposed in the Qualifying Third Party Offer, and otherwise on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Qualifying Third Party Offer. In the event that one or more of the Remaining Members exercise such ** purchase right, the closing of the Transfer of the ROFO Interest shall occur within 30 days of the Remaining Members’ purchase election or on such other date as the participating parties mutually agree.

(b) (i) If a Class B Member proposing to sell its Interest (the “Class B Seller”) wishes to solicit proposals from third parties for any Transfer for value of any Interests (“Sale Proposals”) involving a Company Sale, it shall first notify the other Members of its desire to solicit a Company Sale (“Solicitation Notice”). The other Members shall notify the Class B Seller in writing within 10 days after receipt of the Solicitation Notice as to whether or not such Members wish to participate in a Company Sale and shall specify a minimum price (“Minimum Price”) at which such Members are willing to sell their Interest thereunder (“Solicitation Response”). If the Class B Seller obtains Solicitation Responses from all of the Members indicating each Member’s desire to enter into a Company Sale and a Minimum Price with respect to each Member, and subject to the Class B Seller and all of the other Members agreeing in writing with respect to the allocation of consideration or value received in any Company Sale, then the Class B Seller may solicit offers for a Company Sale. If the Class B Seller obtains an offer within 90 days of its receipt of the Solicitation Responses for a Company Sale in excess of each of the Minimum Prices set forth in the Solicitation Responses (“Company Sale Offer”), it may cause a Company Sale pursuant to the terms and provisions set forth in Section 7.2(b)(ii). If the Class B Seller does not obtain an offer for a Company Sale in excess of the minimum prices set forth in the Solicitation Responses within 90 days of its receipt of the Solicitation Responses, then the Class B Seller may not pursue a Company Sale. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.2(b)(i). shall only apply to

a Company Sale to be solicited by a Class B Member, and not any other Transfer by a Class B Member.

(ii) Within 5 days after receipt of a Company Sale Offer that the Class B Seller desires to accept, the Board shall notify each Member, in writing, of such Company Sale Offer (“Company Sale Notice”). The Company Sale Notice shall identify the transferee, the proposed consideration and all other material terms and conditions of the Company Sale, including the form of the proposed agreement, if any, and provide a copy of all relevant documents and agreements related to such Company Sale. Each Member agrees that upon receipt of a Company Sale Notice it will (i) take such action as may reasonably be required, including voting its Interest and/or including its Interest in any such Company Sale, (ii) cause its designated Managers to take such action required, to approve and cause such Company Sale to promptly be consummated, (iii) provide for the execution of such agreements and such instruments and other actions reasonably necessary to provide, to the extent necessary, customary several (and not joint) representations, warranties, indemnities, and escrow/holdback arrangements relating to such Company Sale, in each case only to the extent that each other holder of Interests is similarly obligated; provided that, no Affiliated Member Group shall be obligated in respect of any indemnity obligations with respect to the customary representations, warranties and indemnities made on a several (and not joint) basis and referred to in the immediately preceding clause in such Company Sale for an aggregate amount in excess of the total consideration payable to such Affiliated Member Group in such Company Sale. The Member proposing such Company Sale shall have the right in connection with any such transaction (or in connection with the investigation or consideration of any such potential transaction) to require the Company to cooperate fully with potential acquirors in such prospective Company Sale by taking all customary and other actions reasonably requested by the Member proposing the Company Sale or such potential acquirors, including making the Company’s properties, books and records, and other assets reasonably available for inspection by such potential acquirors, establishing a data room including materials customarily made available to potential acquirors in connection with such processes and making its employees reasonably available for presentations, interviews and other diligence activities, in each case subject to reasonable and customary confidentiality provisions. The Company and each Member shall provide assistance with respect to these actions as reasonably requested by the Member proposing the Company Sale. In addition, once a Company Sale is properly initiated under this Section 7.2, the Board shall be entitled to take all steps reasonably necessary to carry out an auction of the Company, in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 7.2(b)(i) including selecting an investment bank, providing Confidential Information (pursuant to confidentiality agreements), selecting the winning bidder and negotiating the requisite documentation; provided, however, that the rights granted the Board in this sentence shall not permit the Board to veto such a properly initiated Company Sale.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, a Company Sale consummated in accordance with Section 7.2(b) shall not be considered a dissolution or liquidation of the Company that is subject to Section 13.4. Except for the consideration or value allocated to the Members under Section 7.2(b), no Member will receive any payments of any nature whatsoever from the transferee in connection with or arising from a Company Sale.

Section 7.3 Recognition of Assignment by Company or Other Members.

No Transfer of an Interest that is in violation of this Article 7 shall be valid or effective, and neither the Company nor the Board nor any Member shall recognize the same for any purpose of this Agreement, including the purpose of making distributions of Available Cash pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such Interest or part thereof. Neither the Company nor the Board shall incur any liability as a result of refusing to make any such distributions to the assignee of any such invalid assignment.

Section 7.4 Effective Date of Assignment.

Any valid Transfer of a Member’s Interest, or part thereof, pursuant to the provisions of this Article 7 shall be effective as of the later of (i) the date of Transfer set forth on the written instrument of Transfer, (ii) the date on which the Company has received the written instrument of Transfer and such other documents as may be required by the Company pursuant to this Agreement and such Transfer has been recorded on the books of the Company, and (iii) the date on which the requirements of this Article 7 have been satisfied. The Company shall, from the effective date of such Transfer, thereafter pay all further distributions on account of the Interest (or part thereof) so assigned to the assignee of such Interest, or part thereof. As between any Member and its assignee, Profits and Losses for the Fiscal Year of the Company in which such assignment occurs shall be apportioned for federal income tax purposes in accordance with any convention permitted under Section 706(d) of the Code and selected by the Board.

Section 7.5 Limitations on Transfer.

No Transfer of an Interest may be effectuated unless in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Board, the Transfer (a) would comply with the Securities Act and applicable securities laws of any other jurisdiction; (b) would not cause the Company to be terminated for purposes of Code Section 708; or (c) would not violate any other applicable laws, provided, that the provisions of this Section 7.5 may be waived by the Board.

Section 7.6 Transferee Not a Substitute Member.

In the event that a transferee is not designated, or does not become, a Substitute Member pursuant to this Article 7, then such transferee shall not be entitled to exercise or receive any of the rights, powers or benefits of a Member other than the right to receive distributions to which the assigning Member would be entitled.

Section 7.7 EMG Pledge.

(a) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) Any pledge by any member of the EMG Group of its Class A Interests for purposes of securing an EMG Loan (as hereinafter defined) is referred to as an “EMG Pledge.”

(ii) An “EMG Loan” is indebtedness for borrowed money incurred by any member of the EMG Group from (A) one or more Commercial Banks or Institutional Lenders, or (B) with the prior written consent of MWE Operating Company, which consent

shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, other prospective lenders (such Commercial Banks, Institutional Lenders or other lenders, collectively, “EMG Lenders”).

(b) In connection with any EMG Pledge entered into in accordance with Section 7.7(a), the Company, the Members and the applicable administrative agent for the relevant EMG Lenders (the “Administrative Agent”) shall enter into a Consent and Agreement (each, an “EMG Pledge Consent”). The EMG Pledge Consent shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Members and shall provide that: (i) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the EMG Lenders, or any EMG Lender or other successful bidder at a Class A Foreclosure may become a Substitute Member upon a Class A Foreclosure (as hereinafter defined), subject to the requirements of Section 7.8 of this Agreement; (ii) all future Additional Members or Substitute Members that were not parties to the EMG Pledge Consent shall be subject to the EMG Pledge Consent, and, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any such Additional Member or Substitute Member shall be deemed to have consented to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the EMG Lenders, or any EMG Lender or other successful bidder at a Class A Foreclosure becoming a Substitute Member upon a Class A Foreclosure, subject to the requirements of Section 7.8 of this Agreement; and (iii) any such Additional Member or Substitute Member described in clause (ii) shall execute reasonable documentation evidencing its consent to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the EMG Lenders, or any EMG Lender or other successful bidder at a Class A Foreclosure becoming a Substitute Member upon a Class A Foreclosure, subject to the requirements of Section 7.8 of this Agreement, as a condition of being admitted as a Member.

Section 7.8 Purchase Rights of Class B Members.

(a) Solely in the event of (i) any foreclosure sale or transfer in lieu thereof or other disposition of the Class A Interest pursuant to an EMG Pledge (the “Foreclosed Interest” and any such sale, transfer in lieu thereof or other disposition, a “Class A Foreclosure”), and (ii) following such Class A Foreclosure the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the EMG Lenders, or any EMG Lender or other successful bidder at such Class A Foreclosure who has succeeded to the Foreclosed Interest of the members of the EMG Group in the Company who were subject to such EMG Pledge (all such Persons who have succeeded to the Foreclosed Interest are referred to as the “Succeeding Member”), the Succeeding Member shall give prompt written notice (the “Foreclosure Notice”) to the Class B Members of the occurrence of the foregoing (and in no event later than 1 Business Day thereafter). At any time within 3 Business Days after receipt of the Foreclosure Notice, the Class B Members shall have the right to purchase, on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Class B Percentage Interests or on such other basis as the Class B Members may mutually agree, all or any portion of the Foreclosed Interest (the Foreclosed Interest, or such portion thereof, the “Elected Foreclosed Interest”) held by such Succeeding Member by delivery of a written notice to the Succeeding Member and the Company of such election to purchase the Foreclosed Interest (the “Initial Election Notice”).

(b) Upon receipt of the Initial Election Notice, the Fair Market Value of the Elected Foreclosed Interest shall be as mutually agreed to in writing by the Class B Members and the Succeeding Member; provided, however, that if the Class B Members and the Succeeding

Member are unable to agree upon the Fair Market Value of the Elected Foreclosed Interest within 5 Business Days, then the Fair Market Value of the Elected Foreclosed Interest shall be determined by an independent appraiser selected by the Class B Members and the Succeeding Member with all costs and expenses of such independent appraiser to be borne 50% by the Class B Members and 50% by the Succeeding Member. If the Class B Members and the Succeeding Member are unable to agree as to the selection of the independent appraiser, then within 3 Business Days the Class B Members, on the one hand, and the Succeeding Member, on the other hand, shall each select an independent appraiser and the two so selected independent appraisers, within 5 Business Days of the last so selected independent appraiser, shall appoint a third independent appraiser who shall appraise and determine the Fair Market Value of the Elected Foreclosed Interest within 30 days of such appointment. The determination of the Fair Market Value of the Elected Foreclosed Interest by the independent appraiser appointed hereunder shall be conclusive and binding upon the Class B Members and the Succeeding Member with all costs and expenses of the two independent appraisers selected by the Class B Members and the Succeeding Member to be borne by the party selecting the same, and all costs and expenses of the third independent appraiser to be borne 50% by the Class B Members and 50% by the Succeeding Member. The date of final agreement or determination of the Fair Market Value of the Elected Foreclosed Interest pursuant to this Section 7.8(b) shall be the “Final Valuation Date.” Any independent appraiser selected pursuant to this subparagraph shall have at least 10 years of experience appraising assets of a similar nature to those of the Company.

(c) Within 10 Business Days after the Final Valuation Date (such 10 Business Day period, the “Decision Period”), the Class B Members may elect to purchase (on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Class B Percentage Interests or on such other basis as the Class B Members may mutually agree) the Elected Foreclosed Interest from the Succeeding Member for ** by delivering written notice to the Succeeding Member and the Company within the Decision Period (the “Foreclosure Purchase Notice”); provided, however that **. Following receipt of the Foreclosure Purchase Notice, the Company shall thereafter set a reasonable place and time for the closing of the purchase and sale of the Elected Foreclosed Interest (the “Foreclosure Closing”), which ** purchase price shall be payable in cash in full at the Foreclosure Closing.

Upon the Foreclosure Closing, the Class B Members purchasing the Foreclosed Interest shall become Substitute Members with respect thereto. The Succeeding Member also agrees to execute and deliver such instruments and documents and take such actions, including obtaining all applicable approvals and consents and making all applicable notifications and filings, as the Class B Members may reasonably request in order to effectively implement the purchase and sale of the Elected

Foreclosed Interest hereunder and the designation of the Class B Members as Substitute Members with respect to the Elected Foreclosed Interest.

(e) If the Class B Members do not elect to purchase (or if they elect to purchase and thereafter fail to timely purchase) any portion of the Foreclosed Interest pursuant to this Section 7.8, such portion of the Foreclosed Interest shall continue to be subject to, and the Succeeding Member shall continue to comply with, the restrictions on Transfers that are otherwise set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, this Article 7.

(B) 60% to the Class B Members in accordance with their Class B Percentage Interests.

(ii) If the First Equalization Date occurs prior to the Trigger Date, within 45 days following the end of the calendar month during which the First Equalization Date occurs, Available Cash shall be distributed to the Members based on the quotient (expressed as a percentage) obtained by dividing the weighted average Investment Balance of such Member during such period by the weighted average Investment Balances of all Members during such period.

(iii) Within 45 days following the end of each calendar month after the earlier to occur of (x) the Trigger Date and (y) the First Equalization Date, Available Cash shall be distributed to the Members in accordance with their respective Investment Balances.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable following the end of each calendar month, the Operator shall ascertain the actual amount of Available Cash as of the end of such calendar month and the amounts that should have been distributed to each Member (the “Actual Distribution Amounts”). To the extent that the Actual Distribution Amounts differ from the Estimated Distribution Amounts, the Operator will take one or more of the following actions:

(i) If a Member receives an Estimated Distribution Amount less than the Actual Distribution Amount with respect to such Member, the Operator shall, in its sole discretion, (x) wire the difference between the Estimated Distribution Amount for such Member and the Actual Distribution Amount for such Member (the “Distribution Adjustment Amount”) within ten Business Days of the date on which Operator determines the Actual Distribution Amount for the applicable month, (y) increase future distributions made by the Company to such Member pursuant to this Section 8.1 by the Distribution Adjustment Amount, or (z) both wire a portion of the Distribution Adjustment Amount as described in clause (x) of this Section 8.1(b)(i) and increase future distributions to such Member by the Company by a portion of the Distribution Adjustment Amount so that such Member obtains the benefit of the entire Distribution Adjustment Amount.

(ii) If a Member receives an Estimated Distribution Amount greater than the Actual Distribution Amount with respect to such Member, the Operator will decrease future distributions made by the Company to such Member pursuant to this Section 8.1 by the Distribution Adjustment Amount.

(iii) The Operator will reasonably cooperate in good faith with the Members so that the Person owed a Distribution Adjustment Amount with respect to any month receives the benefit of such Distribution Adjustment Amount within 60 days of the final determination of such Distribution Adjustment Amount by the Operator.

Section 8.2 Withholding.

All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any foreign, state or local tax law or treaty with respect to any payment, distribution or allocation to the Company or the Members shall be treated as amounts distributed to the Members pursuant to this Article 8 for all purposes of this Agreement. The Board is authorized to withhold from distributions, or with respect to allocations, to the Members and to pay over to any federal, foreign, state or local government any amounts required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any other federal, foreign, state or local law or treaty and shall allocate such amounts to those Members with respect to which such amounts were withheld.

Section 8.3 Limitations on Distribution.

Except as provided in this Agreement, no Member shall be entitled to any distribution of cash or other property from the Company. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not make a distribution to any Member on account of its Interest in the Company if such distribution would violate the Act or other applicable law.

Section 8.4 Tax Distributions.

(a) Each Member shall be entitled to receive, on the date which is 2 Business Days prior to each date on which estimated income tax payments are required to be made by an individual calendar year taxpayer and each due date for the income tax return of an individual calendar year taxpayer (each a “Tax Distribution Date”), cumulative cash distributions in an amount equal to such Member’s Assumed Tax Liability, if any. The “Assumed Tax Liability” of each Member means an amount equal to (i) the cumulative amount of federal income taxes (including any applicable estimated taxes), determined taking into account the character of income and loss allocated to such Member as it affects the applicable tax rate, that the Board estimates would be due from such Member as of such Tax Distribution Date, assuming such Member were an individual that earned solely the items of income, gain, deduction, loss and/or credit allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 9.4 (after reflecting any adjustments thereto by reason of Code Sections 732(d), 734, or 743), reduced by (ii) all previous distributions made to such Member pursuant to this Article 8.

(b) Distributions under this Section shall be treated as an advance distribution under and shall offset future distributions that such Member would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 8.1 or, if not previously offset, Section 13.4.

(c) If on a Tax Distribution Date there are not sufficient funds on hand to distribute to each Member the full amount of such Member’s Assumed Tax Liability, distributions pursuant to this Section 8.4 shall be made to the Members to the extent of the available funds in proportion to each Member’s Assumed Tax Liability.

ARTICLE 9

ALLOCATIONS

Section 9.1 Profits and Losses.

After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 9.2, 9.3 and 13.4(b), all Profits and Losses from operations for each Fiscal Year (or part thereof) shall be allocated to the Class A Members and the Class B Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests; provided, that no Losses shall be allocated to any Member to the extent that such Losses would result in a Member having an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. To the extent Losses allocated to a Member would cause such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Fiscal

Year, the Losses will be reallocated to other Members. If any Member receives an allocation of Losses otherwise allocable to another Member in accordance with this Section 9.1, such Member shall be allocated Profits in subsequent Fiscal Years necessary to reverse the effect of such allocation of Losses. Such allocation of Profits (if any) shall be made before any other Profit allocations under this Section 9.1.

Section 9.2 Special Allocations.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the following special allocations shall be made:

(a) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable year shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests.

(b) Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable year shall be allocated 100% to the Member that bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704 2(i). If more than one Member bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to a Member Nonrecourse Debt, Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable thereto shall be allocated between or among such Members in accordance with the ratios in which they share such Economic Risk of Loss. This Section 9.2(b) is intended to comply with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c) Company Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain during any taxable year, each Member shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f)(6), (g)(2) and (j)(2)(i). For purposes of this Section 9.2, each Member’s Capital Account shall be determined, and the allocation of income or gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Article 9 with respect to such taxable year. This Section 9.2(c) is intended to comply with the partner minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(d) Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement (other than Section 9.2(c) above), if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during any taxable year, any Member with a share of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain at the beginning of such taxable year shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and (j)(2)(ii). For purposes of this Section 9.2, each Member’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income and gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Article 9, other than Section 9.2(c) above, with respect to such taxable year. This Section 9.2(d) is intended to comply with the partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(e) Qualified Income Offset. Except as provided in Sections 9.2(c) and 9.2(d) above, in the event any Member unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution

described in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Company income and gain shall be allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by such Treasury Regulation, the deficit balance, if any, in its Adjusted Capital Account created by such adjustment, allocation or distribution as quickly as possible unless such deficit balance is otherwise eliminated pursuant to Sections 9.2(c) or 9.2(d). This Section 9.2(e) is intended to constitute a qualified income offset described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(f) Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account at the end of any taxable year, such Member shall be allocated items of Company gross income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, however, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 9.2(f) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account after all other allocations provided in this Section 9.2 (other than Section 9.2(e)) have been tentatively made as if Section 9.2(e) and this Section 9.2(f) were not in this Agreement.

(g) Agreed Allocations.

(i) With respect to any taxable period ending prior to the First Equalization Date and the Trigger Date, any remaining items of gross income, gain, loss or deduction shall be allocated among the Members in such a manner determined by the Board to cause the Members’ relative projected Capital Account balances to be proportionate to their respective projected relative Investment Balances as of the earlier to occur of the First Equalization Date and the Trigger Date; and

(ii) With respect to any taxable period ending on or after the first to occur of the First Equalization Date or the Trigger Date, any remaining items of gross income, gain, loss or deduction shall be allocated among the Members in such a manner determined by the Board to cause the Member’s relative Capital Account balances to be proportionate to their relative Investment Balances as of the end of such taxable period.

Section 9.3 Curative Allocations.

Except for the allocations set forth in Section 9.2(g), the allocations set forth in Section 9.2 (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this Section 9.3. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 9 (other than the Regulatory Allocations), but subject to the Code and the Treasury Regulations, the Board shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Member’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of this Agreement. In exercising its discretion under this Section 9.3, the Board shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made.

Section 9.4 Income Tax Allocations.

(a) Except as provided in this Section 9.4, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as such items are allocated for book purposes under Sections 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 and 13.4(b).

(b) In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to 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 Gross Asset Value at the time of its contribution to the Company. If the Gross Asset Value of any Company property is adjusted in accordance with clause (c) or (d) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, then subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such property for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value as provided in Code Section 704(c) and the related Treasury Regulations. For purposes of such allocations, the Company shall elect the remedial allocation method described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(d).

(c) All items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit allocated to the Members in accordance with the provisions hereof and basis allocations recognized by the Company for federal income tax purposes shall be determined without regard to any election under Section 754 of the Code which may be made by the Company.

(d) If any deductions for depreciation or cost recovery are recaptured as ordinary income upon the Transfer of Company properties, the ordinary income character of the gain from such Transfer shall be allocated among the Members in the same ratio as the deductions giving rise to such ordinary character were allocated.

Section 9.5 Allocation and Other Rules.

(a) In the event Members are admitted to the Company pursuant to this Agreement on different dates, the Profits (or Losses) allocated to the Members for each Fiscal Year during which Members are so admitted shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests during such Fiscal Year in accordance with Section 706 of the Code, using any convention permitted by law and selected by the Board that takes into account the varying interests of the Members during such Fiscal Year.

(b) For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses or any other items allocable to any period, Profits, Losses and any such other items shall be determined on a daily, monthly or other basis, as determined by the Board using any method that is permissible under Section 706 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(c) The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Article 9 and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article 9 in reporting their shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

(d) Allocations made by the Board under Section 9.2 in reliance upon the advice of the Company’s accountants shall be deemed to be made pursuant to any fiduciary obligation to the Company and the Members.

(e) If any Member makes a loan to the Company, or the Company makes a loan to any Member, and interest in excess of the amount actually payable is imputed under Code Sections 7872, 483, or 1271 through 1288 or corresponding provisions of subsequent federal income tax law, then any item of income or expense attributable to any such imputed interest shall be allocated solely to the Member who made or received the loan and shall be credited or charged to its Capital Account, as appropriate.

In addition, the Company, at its expense, shall cause to be delivered to each Member within 60 days after the end of each calendar quarter (other than a calendar quarter ending as of the end of the Company’s taxable year which shall be governed by the first sentence of this Section 11.3) a good faith estimate of the amounts that will be included on the IRS Form K-1 for such Member for the taxable year in which such calendar quarter is included (including a statement for the year to date of each Member’s share of net income, net losses and other items allocated to such Member).

Section 11.4 Tax Matters Representative.

(a) The “tax matters partner” of the Company for purposes of Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code shall be MWE Operating Company, so long as MWE Operating Company or one of its Affiliates is a Member, and shall have the power to manage and control, on behalf of the Company, any administrative proceeding at the Company level with the Internal Revenue Service relating to the determination of any item of Company income, gain, loss, deduction or credit for federal income tax purposes. Any Member who is designated as the tax matters partner shall be referred to herein as the “Tax Matters Member.”

(b) The Tax Matters Member shall keep the Members informed as to the status of any audit of the Company’s tax affairs, and shall take such action as may be necessary to cause any Member so requesting to become a “notice partner” within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(8) of the Code. Without first obtaining the approval of the Board and Requisite Member Approval, the Tax Matters Member shall not, with respect to Company tax matters: (i) enter into a settlement agreement with respect to any tax matter which purports to bind Members, (ii) intervene in any action pursuant to Code Section 6226(b)(6), (iii) enter into an agreement extending the period of limitations for making assessments on behalf of Members, or (iv) file a petition pursuant to Code

The margin tax paid on behalf of the Company shall be equal to the margin tax that the Company would have paid if it had computed its margin tax liability for the report period on a separate entity basis rather than as a member of the combined group. In such event, the parties agree that such Member shall be considered as paying such amount on behalf of the Company and the Company shall deduct for federal income tax purposes 100% of the Texas margin tax attributable to the Company; provided, that in the event that such deduction may not be properly taken by the Company, the Company shall reimburse such Member for the after-tax cost of such payment of Texas margin tax paid on the Company’s behalf.

Section 13.4 Liquidation.

(a) Upon dissolution of the Company, the Board (in such capacity, the “Liquidating Trustee”) shall carry out the winding up of the Company and shall immediately commence to wind up the Company’s affairs; provided, however, that a reasonable time shall be

allowed for the orderly liquidation of the assets of the Company and the satisfaction of liabilities to creditors so as to enable the Members to minimize the normal losses attendant upon a liquidation.

Any remaining proceeds shall be distributed to the Class A Members and the Class B Members in proportion to their respective Investment Balances.

(b) In the event of any liquidation and winding up of the Company under Section 13.4 or a sale, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary, Profits and Losses and each item of gross income, gain, loss and deduction for such period shall be allocated to the Members so that, to the maximum extent possible, each Member’s Capital Account balance equals the amount of cash distributed to each such Member pursuant to Section 13.4(a) (referred to as “Liquidation Amounts”), and no other allocation of Profit or Loss pursuant to this Agreement shall reverse the effect of such allocation. If in the year of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the Members’ Capital Accounts are not equal to their respective Liquidation Amounts after the application of the preceding sentence, then to the extent permitted by law and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, items of gross income and gain for any preceding taxable period(s) with respect to which IRS Form 1065 Schedules K-1 have not been filed by the Company shall be reallocated among the Members until the Members’ Capital Accounts are equal to their respective Liquidation Amounts, and no other allocation of Profit or Loss pursuant to this Agreement shall reverse the effect of such allocation.

Section 13.5 Termination.

The Company shall terminate when all of the assets of the Company, after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company, shall have been distributed to the Members in the manner provided for in this Article 13 and the Certificate shall have been canceled, or such other documents required under the Act to be executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware have been so executed and filed, in the manner required by the Act.

Section 13.6 Claims of the Members or Third Parties.

The Members and former Members shall look solely to the Company’s assets for the return of their Capital Contributions, and if the assets of the Company remaining after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company are insufficient to return such Capital Contributions, the Members and former Members shall have no recourse against the Company or any other Member; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of a Member under applicable law. In the event any Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account at the time of the Company’s dissolution, it shall not be required to restore

such account to a positive balance or otherwise make any payments to the Company or its creditors or other third parties in respect of such deficiency.

Section 13.7 Distributions In-Kind.

If any assets of the Company shall be distributed in kind, such assets shall be distributed to the Member(s) entitled thereto as tenants-in-common in the same proportions as such Member(s) would have been entitled to cash distributions if (i) such assets had been sold for cash by the Company at the fair market value of such property (taking the Gross Asset Value definition herein and Code Section 7701(g) into account) on the date of distribution; (ii) any unrealized income, gain, loss and deduction inherent in such property (that has not been reflected in the Capital Accounts previously) that would be realized by the Company from such sale were allocated among the Member(s) as Profits or Losses in accordance with this Agreement; and (iii) the cash proceeds were distributed to the Member(s) in accordance with this Article 13. The Capital Accounts of the Member(s) shall be increased by the amount of any unrealized income or gain inherent in such property or decreased by the amount of any loss or deduction inherent in such property that would be allocable to them, and shall be reduced by the fair market value of the assets distributed to them under the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Members shall have the right to assign their interest to such in-kind distribution to any Person.
