Board of Managers Section 3.01
Managers Authority We authorize you, acting as Manager, to (i) negotiate, execute and deliver the Underwriting Agreement, (ii) exercise all authority and discretion granted by the Underwriting Agreement and take all action you deem desirable in connection with this Agreement and the Underwriting Agreement including, but not limited to, waiving performance or satisfaction by the Company, any selling security holder or any other party to the Underwriting Agreement of its or their obligations or conditions included in the Underwriting Agreement or the Terms Communication (including this Agreement), if in your judgment such waiver will not have a material adverse effect upon the interests of the Underwriters and exercising any right of cancellation or termination, (iii) modify, vary or waive any provision in the Underwriting Agreement except the amount of Our Securities or the purchase price (except you may determine the price by Formula Pricing where applicable), (iv) determine the timing and the terms of the Offering (including varying the offering terms and the concessions and discounts to dealers), (v) exercise any option relating to the purchase of Option Securities, and (vi) take all action you deem desirable in connection with the Offering and the purchase, carrying, sale and distribution of the Securities. If there are other Managers with respect to an Offering, you may take any action hereunder alone on behalf of the Managers, and our representations, agreements and authorizations given herein shall also be for the benefit of such other Manager to whom you may grant any of your authority to act hereunder. You may arrange for the purchase by others, who may include your or other Underwriters, of any Securities not taken up by an Underwriter in respect of its obligations hereunder who defaults under this Agreement and/or the Underwriting Agreement. We will assume our proportionate share of all defaulted obligations not assumed by others and any Securities so assumed shall be included in Our Securities. However, nothing in this paragraph will affect our liability or obligations in the event of a default by us or any other Underwriter(s). You may advertise the Offering as you determine and determine all matters relating to communications with dealers or others. We will not advertise the Offering without your consent, and we assume all expense and risk with respect to any advertising by us. Notwithstanding any information you furnish as to jurisdictions where you believe the Securities may be sold, you have no obligation for qualification of the Securities for sale under the laws of any jurisdiction. You may file a New York Further State Notice. You have no liability to us except for your own lack of good faith in meeting obligations expressly assumed by you hereunder.
