The initial register is attached hereto as Schedule 1, and may be modified and updated by the Board from time to time to reflect changes in the identity of the Members or other relevant information (and any such changes made in accordance with this Agreement shall not be deemed to be amendments to this Agreement). The Company shall from time to time, at the direction and in the discretion of the Board, distribute an updated version of the Register of Members to all of the Members entitled to receive such updated Register of Members, and such updated Register of Members shall be available at all times upon the written request of any Member entitled to receive such updated Register of Members.

Shares;

(v) the projected Financial Payments Coverage Ratio is no less than 1.30 to 1.00 for each of the two consecutive years ending on the later of (a) the fourth Redeemable Preferred Dividend Date or (b) the second anniversary of the date of issuance of such Additional Redeemable Preferred Shares;

(vi) the issuance of such Additional Redeemable Preferred Shares will not result in the violation of any Legal Requirements;

For purposes of calculating the projected Financial Payments Coverage Ratio as required by Section 2.1(c)(v), (x) all Redeemable Preferred Dividends with respect to the Redeemable Preferred Shares (giving effect to the issuance of any applicable Additional Redeemable Preferred Shares) shall be assumed paid in cash, regardless of any non-cash accrual feature, and (y) to the extent any energy payments projected to be received by the Company are dependent on market projections, such projected energy payments shall be determined based upon the average of four quotes from established forward market participants or, if four quotes from established forward market participants are not reasonably available, based upon comparable information obtained from sources not affiliated with the Company.

Each Member agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and all other Members from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, damages, deficiencies and expenses resulting from any tax liability incurred by any Member attributable to the failure of the Company to withhold taxes on distributions or allocations to such Member, unless such failure to withhold was the result of willful malfeasance or gross negligence on the part of the Company.

4.5 Distributions in Kind. No Member may demand or receive property other than cash as provided in this Agreement. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, a Majority In Interest of the Shares may determine to make distributions in kind of Company assets provided that such Company assets shall be distributed in such a fashion as to ensure that the fair market value thereof is distributed in accordance with this Article 4.

Any affirmative covenant contained in Article 5 of the Credit Agreement (i) which requires the delivery of notice or other information to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, shall, for purposes of this Section 6.4(a), be deemed to require delivery of such notice or other information to the Redeemable Preferred Members, (ii) which references the approval or consent of the Supermajority Lenders, shall, for purposes of this Section 6.4(a), be deemed to require the approval or consent of a Supermajority In Interest of the Redeemable Preferred Members, and (iii) which references the approval or consent of the Majority Lenders, shall, for purposes of this Section 6.4(a), be deemed to require the approval or consent of a Majority In Interest of the Redeemable Preferred Members. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Credit Agreement Termination Date only the Administrative Agent (and not the Redeemable Preferred Members) shall be permitted to approve the form of the reports and other deliverables required under Sections 5.5, 5.14 and 5.15 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) Credit Agreement Negative Covenants. Until the Redeemable Preferred Shares Redemption Date, the Common Member shall cause the Company not to, and the Company shall not:

(i) unless compliance shall be waived by a Majority In Interest or Supermajority In Interest of the Redeemable Preferred Shares, as applicable, take or fail to take any action, fail to observe, or perform or fail to perform any action the effect of which would constitute a material violation or breach of any of the negative covenants of the Company contained Article 6 of the Credit Agreement, other than Sections 6.23, 6.24 and 6.25 thereof (in the form of such covenants exist as of the Effective Time and as they may hereafter be amended from time to time, but only to the extent such incorporation of any such amendments into this Agreement has been consented to by the Company and a Majority In Interest or Supermajority In Interest of the Redeemable Preferred Members, as applicable), each of which is hereby incorporated and made applicable by reference as if set forth at length in this Agreement (together with the applicable cure periods and standards of materiality, notification requirements, and consent and approval rights, if applicable), and (ii) deemed to be modified as incorporated herein to refer to the Redeemable Preferred Members rather than to the Administrative Agent,

Collateral Agent, Lenders, the Supermajority Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as the case may be;

(ii) after the Credit Agreement Termination Date, open or maintain a bank account at any financial institution other than the Company’s primary bank account established by the Board into which funds of the Company are deposited (the “Company Account”) unless a Majority In Interest of the Redeemable Preferred Members Consents to such action;

(iii) without the Consent of a Majority In Interest of the Redeemable Preferred Members, create, assume or suffer to exist any Lien, securing a charge or obligation on the Project or on any of the Collateral, real or personal, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens; and

(iv) without the Consent of a Majority In Interest of the Redeemable Preferred Members, incur, create, assume or permit to exist any Debt except Permitted Debt, or refinance any term Debt, including the Term Loans.

Any negative covenant contained in Article 6 of the Credit Agreement (i) which requires the delivery of notice or other information to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, shall, for purposes of this Section 6.4(b), be deemed to require delivery of such notice or other information to the Redeemable Preferred Members, (ii) which references the waiver of compliance, approval or consent of the Supermajority Lenders, shall, for purposes of this Section 6.4(b), be deemed to require the waiver of compliance, approval or consent of a Supermajority In Interest of the Redeemable Preferred Members, and (iii) which references the waiver of compliance, approval or consent of the Majority Lenders, shall, for purposes of this Section 6.4(b), be deemed to require the waiver of compliance, approval or consent of a Majority In Interest of the Redeemable Preferred Members.

(c) Survival of Covenants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Credit Agreement and notwithstanding the occurrence of the Credit Agreement Termination Date (and related termination of the Company’s obligations thereunder), the Common Member and Redeemable Preferred Members agree that the Company’s obligations under this Section 6.4 shall continue as though the Credit Agreement remained in full force and effect until the Redeemable Preferred Shares Redemption Date.

(d) No Material Modification of Credit Agreement. Until the Redeemable Preferred Shares Redemption Date and unless compliance shall have been waived by a Majority In Interest of the Redeemable Preferred Shares, the Common Member shall cause the Company not to enter into any agreement to materially amend or make any material modifications to the Credit Agreement.

(e) Limitation on Liability. During a Voting Rights Period, the obligations of the Common Member to comply with its covenants set forth in this Article VI shall immediately terminate and the Common Member shall have no liability to the Company, any Member or any other Person bound by this Agreement for any failure to satisfy any such obligations during such period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the

Common Member and its respective officers, directors, trustees, members, partners, employees or agents, and any of their heirs, executors, successors and assigns (the “Common Member Parties”), shall not be liable to the Company, any Member or any other Person bound by this Agreement for any breach of the covenants set forth in this Section 6.4, or for any act or omission by such Person in connection with the conduct of affairs of the Company, in each case unless such act or omission was finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be the result of fraud, willful misconduct or bad faith of any of the respective Common Member Parties with respect to the Common Member.

6.5 Matters Requiring Independent Director Approval. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement and any provision of law that so empowers the Company, none of the Company, the Members, the Board, or any other Person shall have authority to cause the Company to, and the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote or prior written Consent of both Independent Directors:

(b) Indemnification. The Company shall, solely from assets of the Company and without recourse to any Member, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Director and Officer for any and all claims or threats thereof, expenses and liabilities or threats thereof (including attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation and defense relating to the Company) which such Director or Officer may incur by reason of being a Director or Officer (regardless of the disclosure or lack of disclosure of such status) or by virtue of taking any action pursuant to this Agreement in such capacity unless such claim, expense or liability is caused by an act or omission performed or omitted by the Director or Officer that is the result of fraud, willful misconduct or breach of the fiduciary duty (as modified by this Agreement) described in Section 6.1(b) or Section 6.6(a) hereof. Expenses incurred by a Director or Officer in defense or settlement of any claim that may be subject to indemnification shall be advanced by the Company prior to the final disposition thereof upon (i) receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Director or Officer to repay such amount to the extent that it shall be determined ultimately that such Director or Officer is not entitled to indemnification and (ii) a reasonable determination by the Board that such Director or Officer, or someone on his or her behalf, is able to repay such amounts under such circumstances. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain director and officer liability insurance coverage for each of its Directors if such insurance is available at a commercially reasonable cost in the marketplace.

(c) Limitation of Duties. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they expand or restrict the duties and liabilities of the Directors otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by each of the Members and the Directors to modify, to that extent, such duties and liabilities.

(a) Intention of Parties. In anticipation that the Company, the Members, the Directors and their respective Affiliates may engage in the same or similar activities or lines of business and have an interest in the same areas of business opportunities, and in recognition of the benefits to be derived by the Company through its continued contractual, limited liability company or corporate and business relations with the Directors, the provisions of this Section 6.9 are set forth to regulate and define the conduct of certain affairs of the Company as they may involve the Directors and the Members and the powers, rights, duties and liabilities of the Company, the Directors and the Members, in all cases except as otherwise expressly limited by this Agreement.

In the event that a Member acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may be a business opportunity for both such Member and the Company, such Member shall have no duty (fiduciary or otherwise) to communicate or offer such business opportunity to the Company and shall not be liable to the Company, any Director or any other Member by reason of the fact that such Member pursues or acquires such business opportunity for itself, directs such opportunity to another Person, or does not communicate information regarding such opportunity to the Company. The foregoing provisions of this Section 6.9(c) apply in like manner to each Director and his or her relations with the Company and the Members.

(b) entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under the LLC Act; or

(c) any other event that causes a dissolution of the Company because the LLC Act mandates dissolution upon the occurrence of such other event, notwithstanding any agreement to the contrary, unless the Company is continued without dissolution in accordance with this Agreement or the LLC Act. Upon the occurrence of any event that causes the last remaining member of the Company to cease to be a member of the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the personal representative of such member is hereby authorized to, and shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of such member in the Company, agree in writing (i) to continue the Company and (ii) to the admission of the personal representative or its nominee or designee, as the case may be, as a substitute member of the Company, effective as of the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of such member in the Company.

7.2 Procedures Upon Dissolution.

(a) General. If the Company dissolves, the Company shall commence winding up pursuant to the appropriate provisions of the LLC Act and the procedures set forth in this Section 7.2. Notwithstanding the dissolution of the Company, prior to the termination of the Company, the business of the Company shall continue to be governed by this Agreement.

(b) Control of Winding Up. The winding up of the Company shall be conducted under the direction of the Board (the Board in such capacity hereinafter referred to as the “Liquidator”); provided, however, that if the dissolution is caused by entry of a decree of judicial dissolution pursuant to Section 7.1(b), the winding up shall be carried out in accordance with such decree.

(c) Manner of Winding Up. The Company shall engage in no further business following dissolution other than that necessary for the orderly winding up of the business and distribution of assets. The maintenance of offices shall not be deemed a continuation of the business for purposes of this Section 7.2(c). Upon dissolution of the Company, the Liquidator shall determine the time, manner and terms of any sale or sales of Company property pursuant to such winding up, consistent with its fiduciary responsibility (as modified by this Agreement) and having due regard to the activity and condition of the relevant market and general financial and economic conditions. Upon completion of winding up of the Company, the Liquidator shall cause to be filed a certificate of cancellation in accordance with the LLC Act.

(d) Application of Assets. In the case of a dissolution, liquidation, winding up or other return of capital of the Company, the Company’s assets shall be applied as follows:

(i) First, to satisfaction of the liabilities of the Company owing to third parties (excluding Subordinated Payments but including all other liabilities owed to Affiliates of the Members) to the extent permitted by law, whether by payment or reasonable provision for payment. The Liquidator is authorized to set up such reserves as are reasonably necessary for any contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations of the Company. Such reserves may be paid over by the Liquidator to an escrow holder or trustee, to be held in escrow or trust for the purpose of paying any such contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations, and, at the expiration of such period as the Liquidator may deem advisable, such reserves shall be distributed to the Members or their assigns in the manner set forth in Section 7.2(d)(ii), (iii) and (iv) below;.

(ii) Second, proportionately to the Redeemable Preferred Members to the extent of any accrued but unpaid Redeemable Preferred Dividends;

(iv) Fourth, to the satisfaction of Subordinated Payments; and

(v) Fifth, to the Common Member.

7.3 Termination of Company. Upon the completion of the liquidation of the Company and the distribution of all Company assets, the Company’s affairs shall terminate and the Liquidator shall cause to be executed and filed an appropriate certificate, if required, to such effect in the proper governmental office or offices, as well as any and all other documents required to effectuate the termination of the Company. The existence of the Company as a separate legal entity shall continue until the cancellation of the Certificate as provided for in the LLC Act.

7.4 Continuation of Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall not in and of itself dissolve upon the Bankruptcy, dissolution or dissociation of any Member. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Bankruptcy of a Member shall not cause such Member to cease to be a member of the Company and upon the occurrence of such an event, the Company shall continue without dissolution.

(a) Status of the Company. The Company and each Member acknowledge that, as of the Effective Time, the Company is a partnership for U.S. federal and state income and franchise tax purposes and hereby agree not to make any election, or take any other action, that would cause the Company to be treated as other than a partnership for federal, state or local tax purposes, including any action that would result in the Company being treated as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code and the Regulations. Each Member further agrees not to elect for the Company to be excluded from the application of Subchapter K of Chapter 1 of Subtitle A of the Code or any similar state statute.

(b) Tax Elections and Reporting.

(i) Generally. The Board shall cause the Company to make all such elections under the Code or Regulations as the Board may choose in its reasonable discretion.

(ii) Tax Information.

(iii) Company Tax Returns. A firm of certified public accountants selected by the Board shall, if the Board so determines, be retained to prepare or review the necessary federal income tax returns and information returns for the Company. Any such tax returns not prepared or reviewed by the firm of certified public accountants, and all other tax returns, shall be prepared in a manner directed by the Board. Each Member shall provide such information, if any, as may be needed by the Company for purposes of preparing such tax and information returns, provided that such information is readily available from regularly maintained accounting records.

(iv) Tax Audits. The Common Member shall be the “tax matters partner,” as that term is defined in Code section 6231(a)(7) (the “Tax Matters Member”) with all of the rights, duties and powers provided for in sections 6221 through 6234, inclusive, of the Code. The Tax Matters Member shall promptly deliver to each Member a copy of all notices and communications with respect to income or similar taxes received from the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority relating to the Company which might materially adversely affect such Members, and shall keep such Members advised of all significant developments in such matters coming to the attention of the Tax Matters Member. All costs incurred by the Tax

Matters Member and its Affiliates in performing the Tax Matters Member’s obligations (including reasonable allocable internal personnel costs and reasonable disbursements, subject to a right of audit of such costs and disbursements at the direction of a Majority In Interest of the Redeemable Preferred Shares with the costs and expenses for such audit to be paid by the holders of Redeemable Preferred Shares in proportion to the proportions in which they hold Redeemable Preferred Shares, unless the audit discloses a 10% overstatement of such costs and disbursements in which event the Tax Matters Member shall bear the costs and expenses of such audit), and all fees and expenses incurred in connection with directing the defense of any claims made by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority (to the extent that such claims relate to the adjustment of Company items), shall be borne by the Company. Neither the Tax Matters Member nor the Company shall be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties payable by a Member or any costs of separate counsel chosen by such Member to represent the Member with respect to any aspect of any challenge by a taxing authority.

(x) with regard to the securities laws of the United States of America, including without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”), such Transfer shall meet one of the following criteria:

(1) be to a Person who the transferor reasonably believes is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act purchasing for its own account or for the account of a “qualified institutional buyer” in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A;

(4) be in a sale to an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act) pursuant to an exemption from registration under section 4(1) of the Securities Act (if available and upon delivery of an opinion of counsel in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Board).

(c) Transfers By Change of Control of Redeemable Preferred Member. For purposes of this Article 9, any change of control with respect to a Redeemable Preferred Member which occurs at the level of an entity, all or substantially all of the assets of which consist, directly or indirectly, of an interest in the Company, shall be considered to be a Transfer.

9.2 Rights of Assignee. Subject to Section 2.1(a)(ii), until such time, if any, as a transferee of any permitted Transfer pursuant to this Article IX is admitted to the Company as a

Substitute Member pursuant to Section 9.3(d): (i) such transferee shall be an Assignee only, as the holder of an Economic Interest, and only shall receive, to the extent Transferred, the distributions and allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit, or similar items to which the Member which Transferred its Shares would be entitled; and (ii) such Assignee shall not be entitled or enabled to exercise any other rights or powers of a Member including voting or consent rights (whether such rights arise hereunder, under the LLC Act or otherwise), such other rights remaining with the transferring Member. In such a case, the transferring Member shall remain a Member even if it has Transferred its entire Economic Interest in the Company to one or more Assignees. In the event any Assignee desires to make a further assignment of any Economic Interest in the Company, such Assignee shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement to the same extent and in the same manner as any Member desiring to make such an assignment.

9.3 Admission of Assignees as Substitute Members; Registration of Transfer on Company’s Books and Records.

(a) Conditions to Admission as Substitute Member. Subject to Section 9.3(b), an Assignee shall become a Substitute Member, and the Transfer of Shares to such Assignee shall be registered on the Company’s books and records, including the Register of Members, only if and when each of the following conditions is satisfied:

(i) the assignor of the Shares transferred sends written notice to the Board requesting the admission of the Assignee as a Substitute Member and setting forth the name and address of the Assignee, the Shares transferred and the effective date of the Transfer;

(ii) the Board receives from the Assignee written instruments of Transfer and such Assignee’s consent to be bound by this Agreement as a Substitute Member that are in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Board; and

(iii) the Board receives from the proposed assignor and/or assignee reasonably satisfactory representations and/or information:

(1) as to reasonably satisfy the Board that the Transfer and admission to the Company as a Substitute Member will not conflict with the requirements of Section 9.1 as if such requirements applied at the time of the admission of such Assignee as a Substitute Member; and

(2) as are reasonably required by the Company to enable it to satisfy all “know your customer” and anti-money laundering laws, orders, rules and regulations.

(b) Transfers of Common Shares by Common Member and Admission of Substitute Member. Upon the Transfer (other than a pledge or encumbrance) of Common Shares by a Common Member and the request for admission of the Assignee thereof as a Substitute Member in accordance with Section 9.3(a) hereof, the Transferor shall deliver its Common Share Certificate(s) to the Company for cancellation (endorsed on the reverse side thereof or endorsed on a separate document), and, upon the Company’s registering of the Transfer on the Register of Members and in connection with the valid admission of the Substitute Member, the Company shall issue a new Common Share Certificate to the Substitute

Member for the number of Common Shares being Transferred and, if applicable, cause to be issued to the transferor Common Member a new Common Share Certificate for the Common Shares that were represented by the canceled Common Share Certificate and that are not being Transferred; provided, that, the Company shall have no duty to register the Transfer unless the requirements of Section 8-401 of the UCC as in effect in the State of Delaware are satisfied.

(c) Refusal to Transfer. If, as a result of the failure to satisfy any of the conditions set forth in Section 9.3(a) or 9.3(b), the Board refuses to register a Transfer of Shares, it shall, within five Banking Days after the date on which the instrument of Transfer was delivered to the Company or its agent, send to the transferor and the transferee notice of the refusal.

(d) Retention of Transfer Instrument. The Company shall be entitled to retain any instrument of Transfer which is registered but any instrument of Transfer which the Board refuses to register shall be returned to the Person who delivered such instrument to the Company when notice of the refusal is given.

(e) Admission of Substitute Member. Upon the admission of any Substitute Member, the Register of Members shall be amended to reflect the name, address and Shares of such Substitute Member and to eliminate or adjust, if necessary, the name, address and Shares of the predecessor of such Substitute Member.

9.4 Withdrawal of Members.

(a) Cessation of Membership After Transfer of Shares. If a Member has transferred all of its Shares in the Company to one or more Assignees, then such Member shall without further act be deemed to have resigned from the Company if and when all such Assignees have been admitted as Substitute Members in accordance with this Agreement. A Member shall not cease to be a Member as a result of the Bankruptcy of such Member. So long as a Member continues to own or hold any Shares, such Member shall not have the ability to resign as a Member prior to the dissolution and winding up of the Company, and any such resignation or attempted resignation by a Member prior to the dissolution or winding up of the Company shall be null and void.

(b) Cessation of Membership After Full Redemption. If all the Redeemable Preferred Shares of a Redeemable Preferred Member have been fully redeemed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Redeemable Preferred Member shall cease to be a member of the Company automatically without any further action required by the Company, such withdrawing Redeemable Preferred Member or any other Member.

(c) Conversion of Membership Interest. Upon the Incapacity of a Member, such Incapacitated Member’s Membership Interest shall automatically be converted to an Economic Interest only, and such Incapacitated Member (or its executor, administrator, trustee or receiver, as applicable) shall thereafter cease to be a member of the Company and shall be deemed an Assignee for all purposes hereunder, with the same Economic Interest as was held by such Incapacitated Member prior to its Incapacity, but without any other rights of a Member

unless the holder of such Economic Interest is admitted as a Substitute Member in accordance with this Agreement.

9.5 Delivery of Information. The Company will promptly furnish or cause to be furnished to the Redeemable Preferred Members and, upon request of holders and prospective purchasers of Redeemable Preferred Shares, to such holders and purchasers, copies of the information required to be delivered to holders and prospective purchasers of the Redeemable Preferred Shares pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision thereto) in order to permit compliance with Rule 144A in connection with resales by such holders of the Redeemable Preferred Shares.

9.6 Pledge of Common Shares in Connection with Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the restrictions on the Transfer of Common Shares contained in this Agreement, including in this Article 9, shall not apply to any pledge of the Common Member’s Common Shares or the Common Share Certificates representing such Common Shares, and the Common Member is hereby authorized to pledge its Common Shares and the Common Shares Certificates representing such Common Shares, pursuant to the Pledge Agreement.

The foregoing definition of Adjusted Capital Account is intended to comply with the provisions of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

1.2 “Allocation Year” means (i) the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on December 31, 2005, (ii) any subsequent twelve (12) month period commencing on the day after the last day of the prior Allocation Year and ending on December 31 of each subsequent year, or (iii) any portion of the period described in clauses (i) or (ii) for which the Company is required to allocate Net Profits, Net Losses, and other items of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction pursuant to this Allocation Addendum.

1.3 “Capital Account” means a capital account established and maintained for each Member with respect to the Company in which the Member has an interest in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). At the Effective Time, the initial Capital Account of each Redeemable Preferred Member shall equal the amount paid by such Member for its Redeemable Preferred Shares. At the Effective Time, (a) the Common Member shall be deemed to have contributed or sold to the Company, for federal income tax purposes, all of the assets owned by the Company, subject to all liabilities associated therewith, immediately prior to the Effective Time and (b) the Common Member’s initial Capital Account, after taking into account each of the (i) issuance of the Redeemable Preferred Shares, (ii) borrowing under the Credit Agreement, and (iii) distribution to the Common Member under Section 4.2(c) of the Agreement (relating to the distribution of the net proceeds of the issuance of the Redeemable Preferred Shares), in each case, at or about the Effective Time, shall equal $585,000,000 less any liabilities secured by the Company’s assets or assumed by the Company in connection with the deemed contribution or sale (not including any indebtedness repaid with the proceeds of the borrowing under the Credit Agreement), less any amount distributed to the Common Member at or about the Effective Time under Section 4.2(c) of the Agreement. The Capital Account shall thereafter be adjusted as follows:

(i) To the Member’s Capital Account there shall be added (i) such Member’s additional Capital Contributions to the Company, (ii) such Member’s allocable share of Net Profits and any items in the nature of income or gain from the Company that are specially allocated to such Member under Section 2 and Section 3 of this Allocation Addendum, and (iii) the amount of any Company liabilities assumed by such Member or that are secured by any Company property distributed to such Member.

(ii) From each Member’s Capital Account there shall be subtracted (i) the amount of money distributed and the Gross Asset Value of any Company property distributed from the Company to such Member, (ii) such Member’s allocable share of Net Losses and any other items in the nature of expenses or losses that are specially allocated to such Member under Section 2 and Section 3 of this Allocation Addendum, and (iii) the amount of any liabilities of such Member assumed by the Company or that are secured by any Company property contributed by such Member to the Company.

(iii) In the event a Membership Interest is Transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to the extent it relates to the Transferred Membership Interest.

(iv) In determining the amount of any liability for purposes of subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, there shall be taken into account Section 752(c) of the Code and any other applicable provisions of the Code and Regulations.

(v) In conjunction with an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of the Company’s Assets pursuant to Code Sections 732, 734 or 743, the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted as provided in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m).

(vi) The foregoing provisions and the other provisions of the Agreement and this Allocation Addendum relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Regulations Section.

For the avoidance of doubt, any payment to a Redeemable Preferred Member in redemption of a Redeemable Preferred Share shall be treated as a distribution to such Member and reduce such Member’s Capital Account accordingly. In the event the Board shall determine in good faith and on a commercially reasonable basis that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto, are computed in order to comply with such Regulations, the Board may make such modification; provided that the Board shall promptly give each other Member written notice of such modification. The Board also shall, in good faith and on a commercially reasonable basis, (i) make any adjustments to the Capital Accounts that are necessary or appropriate to maintain equality between the aggregate Capital Accounts of the Members and the amount of capital reflected on the Company’s balance sheet, as computed for book purposes, in accordance with Regulations § 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(q), and (ii) make any appropriate modifications to the Capital Accounts (and, if necessary, the initial Gross Asset Value of the Company’s assets) in the event unanticipated events might otherwise cause this Agreement not to comply with Regulations § 1.704-1(b) or in the event that adjustments to Capital Account balances or Gross Asset Values are determined by the Board to be necessary or appropriate to reflect properly the economic position of the parties and the intent and operation of this Agreement.

1.4 “Capital Contribution” means with respect to any Member in its capacity as such, (a) the aggregate amount of money contributed by such Member to the capital of the Company and (b) the initial Gross Asset Value of any property (other than money) contributed by such Member to the capital of the Company, reduced by the amount of any liabilities encumbering

such property that the Company is considered to assume or take subject to under Code Section 752.

1.5 “Company Minimum Gain” has the meaning set forth in Regulations Sections 1.704-2(b)(2) and 1.704-2(d) for the phrase “partnership minimum gain.”

1.6 “Depreciation” shall mean, for each Allocation Year, an amount equal to the depreciation, amortization or other cost recovery deduction allowable with respect to an asset for such Allocation Year for federal income tax purposes, except that (a) with respect to any asset the Gross Asset Value of which differs from its adjusted tax basis for federal income tax purposes, which difference is being eliminated by use of the “remedial method” pursuant to Section 1.704-3(d) of the Regulations, Depreciation for such Allocation Year shall be the amount of book basis recovered for such Allocation Year under the rules prescribed by Section 1.704-3(d)(2) of the Regulations, and (b) with respect to any other asset the Gross Asset Value of which differs from its adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes at the beginning of such Allocation Year, Depreciation shall be an amount that bears the same ratio to such beginning Gross Asset Value as the depreciation, amortization or other cost recovery deduction for such Allocation Year for federal income tax purposes bears to such beginning adjusted tax basis; provided, however, that if the federal income tax depreciation, amortization or other cost recovery deduction for such Allocation Year is zero, Depreciation shall be determined with reference to such beginning Gross Asset Value using any reasonable method selected by the Board.

1.7 “Gross Asset Value” means, with respect to any asset, the asset’s adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes, except as follows:

(i) The initial Gross Asset Value of any asset (other than cash) contributed by a Member to the Company shall be the gross fair market value of such asset, mutually agreed by the contributing Member and the Board, provided that the initial Gross Asset Value of the Company’s assets at or about the Effective Time, after taking into account each of (a) the issuance of the Redeemable Preferred Shares, (b) the borrowing under the Credit Agreement, and (c) the distribution to the Common Member under Section 4.2(c) of the Agreement, shall equal the sum of (I) the aggregate initial Capital Accounts of the Members at or about the Effective Time (as determined under the definition of “Capital Account”) and (II) the aggregate amount of all indebtedness of the Company for federal income tax purposes at or about the Effective Time (not including any indebtedness repaid with the proceeds of the borrowing under the Credit Agreement at or about the Effective Time)..

(ii) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or as determined by the Board, the Gross Asset Values of all Company assets immediately prior to the occurrence of any event described in subsection (a), subsection (b), subsection (c), subsection (d), or subsection (e) of this Section 1.7(ii) shall be adjusted to equal their respective gross fair market values, as determined by the Board (using any reasonable valuation method approved by the Board), as of the following times:

(a) the acquisition of any additional Membership Interest in the Company by any new or existing Member in exchange for more than a de minimis Capital Contribution pursuant to Regulations

Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(5)(i);

(b) the distribution by the Company to a Member of more than a de minimis amount of assets as consideration for an interest in the Company pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(5)(ii);

(c) the liquidation of the Company, within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(5)(ii);

(d) immediately prior to issuance of more than a de minimis Membership Interest in exchange for services rendered or to be rendered pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(5)(iii); and

(e) at such other times as are permitted by Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(5)(iv).

(iii) The Gross Asset Value of any Company asset distributed to a Member shall be the gross fair market value (taking Code Section 7701(g) into account) of such asset on the date of distribution.

(iv) The Gross Asset Values of the assets of the Company shall be increased (or decreased) to reflect any adjustments to the adjusted basis of such Assets pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b), but only to the extent that such adjustments are taken into account in determining Capital Accounts pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m) and subparagraph (iv) of the definition of “Net Profits” and “Net Losses” or Section 3.7 of this Allocation Addendum, provided, however, that Gross Asset Values shall not be adjusted pursuant to this subparagraph (iv) to the extent that an adjustment pursuant to subparagraph (ii) is required in connection with a transaction that would otherwise result in an adjustment pursuant to this subparagraph (iv).

If the Gross Asset Value of a Company asset has been determined or adjusted pursuant to Section 1.7(i), Section 1.7(ii) or Section 1.7(iv) above, such Gross Asset Value shall thereafter be adjusted by the Depreciation taken into account with respect to such Asset for purposes of computing Net Profits and Net Losses.

1.8 “Member Nonrecourse Debt” has the meaning set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(4) for the phrase “partner non-recourse debt.”

1.9 “Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain” means an amount, with respect to each Member Nonrecourse Debt, equal to the Company Minimum Gain that would result if such Member Nonrecourse Debt were treated as a Nonrecourse Liability, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation § 1.704-2(i)(3).

1.10 “Member Nonrecourse Deductions” has the meaning set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) for the phrase “partner non-recourse deductions.”

1.11 “Net Profits” or “Net Losses” means, with respect to the Company, for each Allocation Year, an amount equal to the taxable income or loss of the Company for such Allocation Year, determined in accordance with Code Section 703(a) (for this purpose, all items

of income, gain, loss or deduction required to be stated separately pursuant to Code Section 703(a)(1) shall be included in taxable income or loss), with the following adjustments:

(i) Any income that is exempt from federal income tax and not otherwise taken into account in computing Net Profits or Net Losses pursuant to this Section shall be added to such taxable income or loss;

(ii) Any expenditure described in Code Section 705(a)(2)(B) or treated as Code Section 705(a)(2)(B) expenditures pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i), and not otherwise taken into account in computing Net Profits or Net Losses pursuant to this Section, shall be subtracted from such taxable income or loss;

(iii) Gain or loss resulting from any disposition of Company assets where such gain or loss is recognized for federal income tax purposes shall be computed by reference to the Gross Asset Value of the assets disposed of, notwithstanding that the adjusted tax basis of such assets differs from its Gross Asset Value;

(iv) To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as a result of a distribution other than in liquidation of a Member’s Membership Interest, the amount of such adjustment shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the Asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases the basis of the Asset) from the disposition of the Asset and shall be taken into account for the purposes of computing Net Profits and Net Losses;

(v) If the Gross Asset Value of any Asset is adjusted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the amount of such adjustment shall be taken into account in the taxable year of such adjustment as gain or loss from the disposition of such Asset for purposes of computing Net Profits or Net Losses;

1.13 “Nonrecourse Liability” has the meaning set forth in Regulations Section 1.704- 2(b)(3).

1.14 “Regulatory Allocations” is defined in Section 3.8 of this Allocation Addendum.

2. Allocation of Net Profits and Losses. As of the end of each Allocation Year, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Net Profits and Net Losses and, to the extent necessary, individual items of income, gain, loss or deduction of the Company shall be allocated among the Members in a manner such that the Capital Account balance of each Member, immediately after making the allocation and after taking into account amounts specially allocated pursuant to Section 3 of this Allocation Addendum (including Section 3.9) or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, is, as nearly as possible, equal (proportionately) to (I) the distributions that would be made to the Member pursuant to Section 7.2(d) of this Agreement (taking into account the priority of such distributions) if the Company were dissolved, its affairs wound up and its assets sold for cash equal to their Gross Asset Value, all Company liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the Gross Asset Value of the assets securing such liability), and the net assets of the Company were distributed in accordance with Section 7.2(d) to the Members immediately after making the allocation, minus (II) the Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain and Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets. For purposes of determining Capital Accounts under this Section 2, Capital Accounts shall first be reduced by any distributions made during the Allocation Year for which allocations are being made.

3. Special Allocations. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Allocation Addendum, the following allocations shall be made before the allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses set forth in Section 2 of this Allocation Addendum:

3.1 Minimum Gain Chargeback. Subject to the exceptions set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(2) through (5), and notwithstanding any other provision in this Allocation Addendum, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Allocation Year, then each Member shall be allocated items of income and gain for such taxable year (and, if necessary, for subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(2). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 3.1 is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement of Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(2) and Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

3.2 Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain Chargeback. Subject to the exceptions set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), and notwithstanding any other provision in this Allocation Addendum, if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt during any Allocation Year, each Member who has a share of the Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of income and gain for such taxable year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in a manner consistent with the provisions of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 3.2 is intended to comply with the partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirement of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

3.3 Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any Allocation Year shall be specially allocated to the Common Member. The amount of Nonrecourse Deductions for a Company Allocation Year equals the excess, if any, of the net increase, if any, in the amount of Company Minimum Gain during that fiscal year over the aggregate amount of any distributions during that fiscal year of proceeds of a Nonrecourse Liability that are allocable to an increase in Company Minimum Gain, determined according to the provisions of Regulations Section 1.704-2(c). For purposes of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Common Member’s share of “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Company shall equal one hundred percent.

3.4 Member Nonrecourse Deductions. The Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated each year to the Member that bears the economic risk of loss (within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-2) for the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable.

3.5 Qualified Income Offset. If any Member unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution of the type contemplated by Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) that causes or increases a deficit, items of income and gain shall be allocated to all such Members (in proportion to the amounts of such deficit Adjusted Capital Accounts) in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balances in such Members’ Adjusted Capital Accounts as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Adjusted Capital Account after all other allocations provided for in this Allocation Addendum have been tentatively made as if this Section 3.5 were not in this Agreement. It is intended that this Section 3.5 qualify and be construed as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).

3.6 Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Allocation Year that is in excess of the sum of (i) any amounts such Member is obligated to restore pursuant to the terms of the Agreement or otherwise, and (ii) the amount such Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 3.6 of this Allocation Addendum shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Allocation Addendum have been made as if Section 3.5 and Section 3.6 of this Allocation Addendum were not in the Agreement.

3.7 Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent that an adjustment to the adjusted basis of any Company Asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to the Regulations, to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the Regulations.

3.8 Regulatory Allocations. The allocations set forth in Sections 3.1 through 3.7 of this Allocation Addendum (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Regulations. The Regulatory Allocations may not be consistent with the manner in which the Members intend to distribute the Assets or allocate income or loss from the

Company. Accordingly, notwithstanding any other provision of this Allocation Addendum (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Board shall make such offsetting allocations of income, gain, loss or deduction of the Company in a reasonable manner 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 and all items of the Company were allocated pursuant to this Allocation Addendum without regard to the Regulatory Allocations.

3.9 Depreciation/Amortization Deductions. All depreciation, amortization, and similar deductions relating to the Company property shall be specially allocated one hundred percent to the Common Member.

3.10 No Impermissible Deficits. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, taxable loss (or items of deduction) shall not be allocated to a Member to the extent that the Member has or would have, as a result of such allocations, a negative Adjusted Capital Account. Any taxable loss (or items of deduction) which otherwise would be allocated to a Member, but which cannot be allocated to such Member because of the application of the immediately preceding sentence, shall instead be allocated to the other Members.

4. Tax Allocations

4.1 Elimination of Book/Tax Disparities. If any Company asset has a Gross Asset Value different than its adjusted tax basis to the Company for federal income tax purposes (whether by reason of the contribution of such property to the Company, the revaluation of such property hereunder, or otherwise), allocations of taxable income, gain, loss and deduction under this Section 4.1 with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted tax basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the manner provided by Code section 704(c) and Regulation Section 1.704-3, using any method approved under Treasury Regulation section 1.704-3 chosen by the Board in its sole discretion. Allocations pursuant to this Section 4.1 are solely for purposes of federal, state and local income taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Net Profits, Net Losses, other items or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

4.2 Income Characterization. For purposes of determining the character (as ordinary income or capital gain) of any gain recognized from any disposition of a Company asset which is treated as ordinary income because it is attributable to the recapture of any depreciation or amortization shall, to the extent possible, be allocated pursuant to Section 2 among the Members in the proportion which (i) the amount of depreciation previously allocated to each Member (or such Member’s predecessor in interest) bears to (ii) the total of such depreciation allocated to all Members. This Section 4.2 shall not alter the amount of allocations among the Members pursuant to Section 2 but merely the character of income so allocated.

4.3 Conformity of Reporting. Items of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit and tax preference for state and local income tax purposes shall be allocated to and among the Members in a manner consistent with the allocation of such items for federal income tax purposes in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Allocation Addendum.

5. Other Provisions.

5.1 All Net Profits, Net Losses or any other items of income, gain, loss or deductions of

the Company shall be allocated to the Members pursuant to this Allocation Addendum with respect to each Allocation Year (or part thereof) as of the last day of such year; provided that Net Profits, Net Losses, and such other items shall also be allocated at such times as the Gross Asset Values of the Company’s assets are adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (ii) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value.”

5.2 For any fiscal year during which any part of a Membership Interest or Economic Interest changes for any reason, including the transfer of any Membership Interest or Economic Interest to another Person, the Net Profits, Net Losses and other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit for the Company for such year shall be adjusted as necessary to reflect the varying interests of the Members during such year in accordance with Section 706 of the Code, using any convention permitted by law and selected by the Board.

5.3 Except as provided in Section 4 hereof, for income tax purposes under the Code and the Regulations each Company item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated among the Members as its correlative item of “book” income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to this Allocation Addendum.

5.4 The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Allocation Addendum and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Allocation Addendum in reporting their respective shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

5.5 The allocations set forth in this Allocation Addendum are intended to comply with the requirements of Sections 704(b) and 704(c) of the Code and the Regulations thereunder and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith. If, any provision contained in this Agreement that allocates any item of income, gain, deduction or loss shall not, in the good faith opinion of the Board, (i) comply with the Code provisions cited in such provision and the Regulations, or (ii) comply with any other provision of the Code or the Regulations, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, such allocation provision shall, upon notice in writing to the other Members, be modified to satisfy such provisions of the Code and the Regulations in a manner to be reasonably determined in good faith by the Board; provided, that any such modification shall not alter materially the economic arrangement among the Members.
