5.2 [Intentionally Omitted]
5.3 [Intentionally Omitted]
5.4 Additional Members. The Company shall not issue any additional interests or admit any additional Members without the approval of the Manager, the Class A Member, and the Class B Members. Nothing in this Section 5.4, however, shall limit
the rights of Members to Transfer their interests in the Company, or to cause Transferees of their interests to be admitted as substituted Members, pursuant to Section 11.
5.5 No Other Contributions. Except as provided in Section 5.1, Section 5.2, Section 5.3 or the Act, no Member shall be required or permitted to make any contribution of cash, property or services, to return any distributions received in accordance with this Agreement or to make any loan, to the Company or to any creditor of the Company (including, without limitation, to restore a deficit balance in such Member’s capital account). No Member shall be liable for any debts, liabilities, contracts or obligations of the Manager or any other Member.
5.6 Capital Accounts. The Manager shall maintain capital accounts for the Members in accordance with Section 704(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. In that regard, the Manager may make such adjustments to the Members’ capital accounts as it determines are necessary and in accordance with the Treasury Regulations in connection with any contribution to or distribution by the Company of more than a de minimis amount of money or other property in exchange for an interest in the Company. If a Member holds interests of more than one (1) class, separate capital accounts shall be maintained for such Member for each such class of interests.

5.7 Company Assets. All assets of the Company shall be owned by the Company as an entity.
6. Allocations of Profit and Loss; Tax Allocations.
6.1 Profit and Loss. The Manger shall allocate the Company’s profits and losses (and the component items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit) among the Members on a portfolio by portfolio basis. Without limiting the foregoing, the Manager may make such special allocations as it reasonably determines to be appropriate (i) to comply with the rules set forth in the Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code governing (a) allocations of “nonrecourse deductions”, “partner nonrecourse deductions” and other items lacking “economic effect”, (b) “minimum gain chargebacks” and “partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargebacks”, and (c) allocations in connection with the exercise of options and conversions of equity or debt interests or instruments, and (ii) for this Agreement to contain a “qualified income offset” provision within the meaning of Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code. In no event, however, shall any such allocations affect the amount or timing of any distribution to be made to any Member hereunder.
6.2 Curative Allocations. The Members intend that their capital account balances as of the time immediately before the liquidating distributions are made pursuant to Section 14 equal the amounts of such distributions to be made to them so that they have zero (0) balances in their capital accounts after the liquidating distributions are
made. Subject to the requirements of the Treasury Regulations as contemplated by Section 6.1 (the “Regulatory Allocations”), the Company shall make such special allocations of items of income, gain, loss, deduction and expenditure as the Manager determines are required to give effect to such intent (including, without limitation, to cure any imbalances that might otherwise be caused by the Regulatory Allocations). The Manager may reallocate items of income, gain, loss, deduction and expenditure for prior open taxable years to give effect to such intent if it reasonably and in good faith determines that such items for the current and future taxable years will be insufficient to give effect to such intent.
6.3 Varying Interests. If any interest in the Company is Transferred during any accounting period, allocations of profit or loss and items of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such interest for such period shall be made using such method or methods (including, without limitation, an “interim closing” method) as the Manager and the Members determine to be appropriate and in compliance with Section 706 of the Code.
6.4 Tax Allocations. Tax allocations shall be made consistent with the allocations of book profit or loss made pursuant to Sections 6.1, except that, solely for tax purposes, (i) items of income, gain, loss, deduction and expenditure with respect to Company assets reflected hereunder in the Members’ capital accounts and on the books of the Company at values that differ from the Company’s adjusted tax bases in such assets shall be allocated among the Members in such manner, and using such method or methods as the Manager determines to be appropriate (it being agreed, however, that allocations made pursuant to this Section 6.6 on account of book/tax disparities with respect to securities held by the Company shall be made using the “traditional” method described in Section 1.704-3(b) of the Treasury Regulations except as the Manager, with the approval of the Class A Member, determines to be appropriate), and (ii) any items of gain recognized by the Company that are subject to the depreciation recapture provisions of Sections 1245 and 1250 of the Code shall be allocated among the Members in such manner as is necessary to comply with Sections 704, 1245 and 1250 of the Code and any applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder.
6.5 Tax Credits. Any tax credits of the Company for any fiscal year or other accounting period shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their allocations of the Company’s profit or loss, as the case may be, for such fiscal year or other accounting period.
6.6 Tax Elections. The Company shall make such elections under the Code and the Treasury Regulations (including, without limitation, those permitted by Sections 704(b), 704(c), 709(b) and 754 of the Code), and state tax or similar laws, as the Manager and the Fund A Advisor determine to be appropriate.
6.7 Tax Matters Partner. Windspeed (or an Entity that has become Manager pursuant to Section 8.1.3 upon the Transfer to it of Windspeed’s interest in the Company) shall be the “Tax Matters Partner” of the Company, as defined in Section
6231(a)(7) of the Code, for purposes of any tax audit of the Company for as long as it is a Manager and a Class B Member. At such time as neither Windspeed nor any such Transferee of its interest is the Tax Matters Partner, a successor Tax Matters Partner shall be designated by the Portfolio A Advisor in accordance with the Code and the Treasury Regulations. The Tax Matters Partner shall have all of the rights, duties, obligations and powers of a Tax Matters Partner, as so defined, under the Code, subject to Section 8.3.10.
7. Distributions.
7.1 Net Portfolio Receipts. Subject to Sections 7.2, 7.5, 7.6, 8.1.4, 8.3, 14, 15 and any legal or contractual restrictions on the Company’s ability to make distributions to the Members, the Manager shall make distributions by wire transfer of any Net Portfolio Receipts (and any other available cash, other than amounts contributed by the Members, the Company may have) as promptly as it determines to be appropriate (but not less frequently than quarterly) as follows:
7.1.1 For purposes of Portfolio A:
85% to the Class A Member and 15% to the Class B Member.
7.1.2 For purposes of Portfolio AA:
7.1.2.1 First, to all of the Members (Class A and Class B) in proportion to their respective Contribution Percentages until (i) the amount that has been distributed pursuant to this Section 7.1.2.1 (including so much of Sections 7.2 and 7.3 as relate to this Section 7.1.2.1) for all fiscal years and other accounting periods equals (ii) the sum of the Members’ Capital Contributions less the sum of the amounts that have been returned to the Members pursuant to Section 5.4;
7.1.2.2 Second, 90% to all of the Members (Class A and Class B) in proportion to their respective Contribution Percentages, and 10% to the Class B Member, until (i) the amount that has been distributed to the Class A Members pursuant to this Section 7.1.2 (including so much of Sections 7.2 and 7.3 as related to this Section 7.1.2) for all fiscal years and other accounting periods equals (ii) (a) 1.8 times (b) the sum of the Class A Members’ Capital Contributions less the sum of the amounts that have been returned to the Class A Members pursuant to Section 5.4;
7.1.2.3 Third, 80% to all of the Members (Class A and Class B) in proportion to their respective Contribution Percentages, and 20% to the Class B Member, until (i) the amount that has been distributed to the Class A Members pursuant to this Section 7.1.2 (including so much of Sections 7.2 and 7.3 as relate to this Section 7.1.2) for all fiscal years and other accounting periods equals (ii) (a) 2.3 times (b) the sum of the Class A Members’ Capital Contributions less the sum of the amounts that have been returned to the Class A Members pursuant to Section 5.4; and
7.1.2.4 Fourth, thereafter, 70% to all of the Members (Class A and Class B) in proportion to their respective Contribution Percentages, and 30% to the Class
B Member.
7.1.3 For purposes of Portfolio B:
In lieu of any further Management Fee under this Agreement, from and after February 21, 2011, 100% to the Class B Member. Based on discussions among the parties and the valuation estimates of the Manager, as of February 21, 2011, the parties concur that the estimated value of the securities related to the companies in Portfolio B is approximately $154,211.00.
7.2 Tax Distributions. Notwithstanding Sections 7.1 and 7.6, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to make advance distributions to the Members within a reasonable period of time before taxes are due in such amounts and proportions as are necessary for the distributions made with respect to their interests (including to predecessor holders of such interests) for all fiscal years and other accounting periods to equal their respective Tax Liabilities as of the time of determination; provided, however, that advance distributions may be made with respect to the portion of a Member’s Tax Liability relating to any particular portfolio only from cash receipts of the Company with respect to such portfolio. Distributions pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be made in advance of the dates by which the corresponding tax amounts are due. Any advance distribution to a Member pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall offset an equal amount of distributions that would otherwise thereafter be made to such Member pursuant to Section 7.1 (or, in the case of the Class C Member, pursuant to Section 7.6).
7.3 [Intentionally Omitted]
7.4 Distributions in Kind. Subject to Sections 8.8, 14, 15 and any legal or contractual restrictions on the Company’s ability to make distributions to the Members, the Manager may from time to time cause the Company to distribute Marketable Securities in kind. Any in kind distribution of a Marketable Security shall be made to the Members in accordance with Section 7.1. Any such in kind distribution shall be made as if such Marketable Security were an amount of Net Portfolio Receipts equal to its value as determined pursuant to Section 7.7 (and, for purposes of thereafter applying Section 7.1, or so much of any other provision of this Agreement as relates to the applicable one of such Sections, shall be treated as having been distributed pursuant to such Section). For purposes of determining and allocating profit, loss and other items pursuant to Section 6, any Marketable Security that is to be distributed in kind shall be treated as having then been sold by the Company for its value as determined for purposes of applying this Section 7.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as CDI (or an Affiliate of CDI that has become a Class A Member upon the Transfer to it of CDI’s Class A interest in the Company) is the Class A Member, the Manager will attempt to sell and convert into cash any Marketable Securities for at least 180 days after such securities have attained the status of Marketable Securities in Portfolio A and Portfolio AA. The Manager may, in its discretion and with the consent of the Class A Member, distribute Marketable Securities from Portfolio A or Portfolio AA in kind to a Class B Member
during such 180-day period; provided that the value of any such distribution to the Class B Member of a share of Marketable Securities in kind shall be deemed to be the comparable per share cash value of the cash distributions made to the Class A Member as a result of the disposition of such in kind Marketable Securities.
7.5 [Intentionally Omitted]
7.6 [Intentionally Omitted]
7.7 Valuation of Securities. The value of any security shall be determined as provided in this Section 7.7.
7.7.1 Any security that is listed on a national securities exchange shall be valued at its average last sale price as recorded by the New York composite tape system over the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the date of such valuation or, if the security is not included in such system, at its average last sale price over such ten (10) trading days on the principal national securities exchange on which such security is traded, as recorded by such exchange (using instead of the last sale price, for any such day on which no sales occurred, the mean between the closing “bid” and “asked” prices on such day as recorded by such system or such exchange, as the case may be).
7.7.2 Any security that is listed on the Nasdaq National Market shall be valued at its average last sale price over the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the date of such valuation as reported by Nasdaq (using instead of the last sale price, for any day on which no sales occurred, the mean between the closing “bid” and “asked” prices on such day as reported by Nasdaq).
7.7.3 Any security that is not listed on a national securities exchange or on the Nasdaq National Market but that is traded in the over-the-counter market in the United States shall be valued at the average mean between the closing “bid” and “asked” prices for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the date of such valuation as reported by Nasdaq or, if not so reported, as reported in the over-the-counter market in the United States.
7.7.4 Any security in the form of an option, warrant or similar security for which no price quotation is available shall be valued by determining the value of the underlying security in accordance with Sections 7.7.1, 7.7.2, 7.7.3 or 7.7.5, as applicable, and subtracting therefrom the exercise or conversion price of such security; and
7.7.5 Any security that is not subject to valuation under any of the preceding provisions of this Section 7.7 shall be assigned the value established for such security in the last round of financing of the issuer of such security plus or minus any adjustments which the Manager reasonably determines to be appropriate to reflect market, issuer or other events that have occurred subsequent to such last round of financing, all consistently applied.
The foregoing valuation methodologies contained in this Section 7.7 will be used by the Manager for purposes of stating the fair value for the period stated of the Company’s Portfolio investments in the Company’s Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Capital as of the applicable quarterly reporting date.
8. Management.
8.1 Manager.
8.1.1 The management and operation of the Company, and the development and implementation of Company policies, shall be and hereby are vested in the Manager, which shall be Windspeed unless and until it ceases to serve as Manager pursuant to Section 8.1.3 or Section 8.1.4. Subject to Section 8.3 and any other applicable limitations imposed by this Agreement, the Manager shall have exclusive authority to exercise on behalf of the Company all of the powers of the Company hereunder (including, without limitation, those specified in Section 2) and to take such other actions as it determines are necessary, advisable or incidental to the carrying on of the Company’s business and affairs. The parties agree that any Person serving as Manager hereunder shall be a “manager” of the Company within the meaning of the Act (with the rights, powers and duties in such capacity provided in this Agreement) for as long as it so serves. In dealings with the Members, or with or on behalf of the Company, the Manager shall act in good faith and in the manner it believes to be, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and the Members. The Manager and its individual members shall have fiduciary responsibilities, solely with respect to the Members, as set forth under the Act and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in like manner and to the same extent as if such persons served directly as individual Managers of the Company.
8.1.2 A Manager shall serve until its successor becomes Manager hereunder or, if earlier, until it ceases to serve as Manager pursuant to Section 8.1.3 or Section 8.1.4. If a Manager ceases to serve as such for any reason (other than, in the case of Windspeed, by its Transfer of its interest in the Company to another Entity that is Controlled by any two (2) or more of the individuals comprising the Windspeed Team and that thereupon becomes the Manager as provided in Section 8.1.3), any vacancy thereby created may be filled by a Person designated by the Class A Member or the Portfolio A Advisor. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the cessation of any Member’s services as Manager shall not, in and of itself, affect its rights, or constitute its withdrawal, as a Member.
8.1.3 A Manager may not resign without the approval of the Class A Member; provided, however, that upon any Transfer by Windspeed pursuant to Section 11 of its interest in the Company to an Entity Controlled by any two (2) or more of the individuals comprising the Windspeed Team, such Entity shall become the Manager upon its admission to the Company as a substituted Class B Member.
8.1.4 A Manager may not be removed except (i) by vote of the Class A Member and (ii) if such Manager is Windspeed (or an Entity that has become Manager pursuant to Section 8.1.3 upon the Transfer to it of Windspeed’s interest in the Company), (a) for Cause, (b) if at least two (2) of the individuals comprising the Windspeed Team are no longer actively committed to the Manager in accordance with Section 8.1.5, or (c) upon the occurrence of a Retirement Event relating to the Manager. If so removed as a Manager for Cause, (i) any distributions (including distributions earned but not yet made) which such removed Manager, or any affiliate thereof, may be entitled to receive as a Member shall be forfeited and (ii) such removed Manager, or any affiliate thereof, shall thereafter no longer be entitled to any further distributions of the Company and (iii) shall have none of the rights and powers of a Member hereunder or under the Act (including, without limitation, to vote, give consents or approvals, or otherwise manage or participate in the affairs of the Company). A removal for Cause shall be effective immediately upon receipt of notice; a Manager’s removal without Cause shall be effective 30 days following receipt of notice.
8.1.5 Until the termination of the Company (as hereinafter provided in Section 14.4), Windspeed and at least two (2) of the individuals comprising the Windspeed Team shall devote to the Company such time and resources and maintain such staffing as are reasonably necessary and appropriate to administer and conduct the Company’s affairs in accordance with the terms hereof and in a manner intended to conform to the best interest of the Company.
8.2 Portfolio A and Portfolio AA Advisor.
8.2.1 The Class A Member will from time to time appoint an individual to act as the Portfolio A and Portfolio AA Advisor hereunder (collectively the “Portfolio A Advisor”). A Portfolio A Advisor may (i) resign upon at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to the Class A Member (which notice will be waived by the Class A Member) and (ii) be removed at any time, for any reason or no reason, by the Class A Member. Any vacancy created by the resignation, removal or other event with respect to a Portfolio A Advisor may be filled by the Class A Member.
8.2.2 The Manager shall not take any action expressly requiring the approval of the Portfolio A Advisor hereunder without such approval (or, if there is then no Portfolio A Advisor, the approval of the Class A Member). In addition, the Manager shall consult with the Portfolio A Advisor regarding potential conflicts of interest and other matters as the Manager from time to time determines to be appropriate. With regard to any potential conflict of interest, the Manager shall provide the Portfolio A Advisor with a written proposal containing an analysis outlining the conflict and the reasonably foreseeable economic ramifications thereof to the Company and Portfolio A and/or Portfolio AA. The Manager shall promptly consider in good faith (without being obligated to comply with) any recommendations that are promptly made by the Portfolio A Advisor in response to any such proposal. Because of the relative interest of CDI in the Company and Portfolio A and Portfolio AA, the Manager acknowledges its fiduciary duty to CDI to maximize the value of CDI’s interest in the Company after considering the
recommendations of the Portfolio A Advisor and consistent with its duties to the members.
8.2.3 Except in its capacity as Manager, liquidating trustee or other authorized service provider, no Member shall have any authority to act for or on behalf of the Company or any other Member or to bind the Company or any other Member in any way, to pledge the Company’s credit or to render the Company liable for any purpose.
8.3 Actions Requiring Member Approval. Notwithstanding Section 8.1, and in addition to any other matters requiring the approval of some or all of the Members hereunder, without the approval of the Portfolio A Advisor (or, if there is then no Portfolio A Advisor, the Class A Member), the Manager shall have no authority to:
8.3.1 liquidate more than two (2) positions included in the Portfolio A in a single transaction or series of related transactions;
8.3.2 cause the Company to engage in a transaction that would result in a Company security being Transferred from Portfolio A or Portfolio AA to Portfolio B;
8.3.3 cause the Company to acquire any asset that would be included in either Portfolio A or Portfolio AA other than by reason of (i) any stock dividend, stock split, stock issuance, combination, recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, conversion or similar transaction with respect to any security held by in such portfolio, (ii) the Company’s cashless exercise of any option, warrant, conversion or exchange right, with respect to securities held in such portfolio, or (iii) the Company’s exercise, using cash available in the Company or, in the absence of such cash, borrowed in accordance with Sections 8.3.9 and 8.10, of any option, warrant, conversion or exchange right, with respect to securities held in that portfolio, that could not have been exercised on a cashless basis (such securities being “Cash Option Securities”);

8.3.5 delegate or assign any of its obligations as Manager hereunder other than as permitted by Section 8.6;

8.3.8 cause the distribution of any Marketable Securities in kind except in accordance with Section 7.4;
8.3.9 except to borrow money to acquire Cash Option Securities in accordance with Section 8.10 or pay expenses pending the receipt of Net Portfolio Receipts cause the Company to borrow money or pledge assets to secure such borrowing; or

11. Transfers.
11.1 Restrictions on Transfer. A Member may not Transfer any interest in the Company without the express written consent of the Manager and each of the other Members; provided, however, (i) that the consent of the Manager and the other Members pursuant to this Section 11.1 shall not be required if such Transfer (a) is made by CDI in accordance with Section 11.2, (b) will not violate or fail to comply with any federal or state securities law or regulation, (c) will not cause the Company to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” as defined in Section 7704(b) of the Code, (d) will not cause the Company to be an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (e) will not cause the assets of the Company or any part thereof to be treated as assets of any employee benefit plan or trust subject to ERISA, (f) will not constitute a prohibited transaction within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and (ii) that the Manager and the other Members may not unreasonably withhold their consents (if required) to any Transfer of an interest in the Company by an Entity to another Entity that directly or indirectly Controls, is Controlled by or is under common Control with the Transferring Entity if (a) in the case of a Transfer by a Class A Member, the Manager has determined that all of the obligations of such Class A Member to the Company will be satisfied in accordance with their terms or (b) in the case of a Transfer by a Class B Member, the Transferee is Controlled by any two (2) or more of the individuals comprising the Windspeed Team. The Manager, in its sole discretion, may require any Member (or unadmitted assignee of a Member) who proposes to make any Transfer not requiring consents under this Section 11.1 to provide the Company with a legal opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Manager that such Transfer will comply with applicable securities laws. In its sole discretion, the Manager may disregard as void any Transfer made in violation of this Section 11.1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no consent or legal opinion will be required in connection with a Transfer of an interest in the Company by CDI to an Affiliate.
11.2 Right of First Offer. Notwithstanding the consent requirements of Section 11.1 (but subject to the other provisions thereof), a Class A Member may Transfer its interest (or any portion thereof) in compliance with the following procedures:
11.2.1 If a Class A Member (a “Selling Member”) proposes to Transfer all or any portion of its interest in the Company to any Person other than an Affiliate of CDI, such Selling Member shall give notice of its intent to make such Transfer (the “Transfer Notice”) to the Manager. The Transfer Notice shall set forth (i) the portion of the Selling Member’s interest to be Transferred (the “Offered Interest”) and (ii) if known to the Selling Member, the identity of the prospective Transferee and the material terms of the proposed Transfer to the prospective Transferee.
11.2.2 The Manager shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deliver to the Selling Member, before the close of the ten (10) day period after the delivery of the Transfer Notice to the Manager (such period, the “Offer Period”), a written offer (an “Offer”) to purchase the Offered Interest. An Offer shall set forth all of the material terms and conditions of the proposed purchase of the Offered Interest. The Manager’s rights to make the Offer and to purchase the Offered Interest pursuant thereto shall be assignable by the Manager to such one (1) or more Persons as the Manager determines to be appropriate (subject to compliance by the Manager with the provisions of Section 11.1 as if such rights were an interest in the Company). During the Offer Period, the Selling Member shall not solicit proposals or offers from, or engage in discussions with, other parties regarding the sale of the Offered Interest.
11.2.3 The Selling Member shall have no obligation to accept an Offer by the Manager (or its assignee). Any closing of the purchase of the Offered Interest by the Manager (or its assignee), however, shall take place on such date, and at such time and place, as the Selling Member and the Manager (or its assignee) shall agree upon. At such closing, the Manager (or its assignee) shall make such deliveries in payment for the Offered Interest as are contemplated by the Offer, and the Selling Member shall deliver such executed documentation (including, without limitation, any required consents) to the Manager (or its assignee) as may be required to effect the Transfer of the Offered Interest to the Manager (or its assignee) and the admission of the Manager (or its assignee) as a substituted Member with respect to the Offered Interest. All of the foregoing deliveries shall be deemed to be made simultaneously and none shall be deemed completed until all have been completed.
11.2.4 If the Manager (or its assignee) does not purchase the Offered Interest in accordance with Section 11.2.3, then, subject to Section 11.1, the Selling Member shall be entitled to Transfer the Offered Interest to a third party Transferee at any time during the one hundred fifty (150) day period after the delivery of the Transfer Notice. If the Offered Interest (or any portion thereof) has not been transferred within such one hundred fifty (150) day period, no Transfer of any portion of the Offered Interest shall be effective unless the Selling Member has again complied with the provisions of this Section 11 as to the Offered Interest. As a condition to the effectiveness of any Transfer of the Offered Interest to a third party Transferee pursuant to this Section 11.2.4, (i) such Transferee shall (a) execute and deliver such documents and agreements as the Manager reasonably determines to be appropriate to effect such Transferee’s agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and (b) take such other actions as the Manager may reasonably determine to be necessary to effect the admission of such Transferee to the Company, to qualify the Company to conduct business or to preserve the limited liability status of the Members, and (ii) the Selling Member and the Transferee shall execute and deliver such documents and agreements, and take such other actions, as the Manager may reasonably require to ensure that all of the obligations of the Selling Member to the Company and Fund B (including, without limitation, the obligation of the Selling Member to fund its
commitment to Fund B with the escrow established pursuant to Section 7.5) will be satisfied in accordance with their terms.
11.3 Assignees. Unless and until a Person who has acquired an interest in the Company by any form of Transfer has been admitted to the Company as a Member, such Person shall have the status of an non-admitted assignee of such interest and, as such, shall have none of the rights and powers of a Member hereunder or under the Act (including, without limitation, to vote, give consents or approvals, access Company records or otherwise manage or participate in the affairs of the Company) other than to receive the distributions and allocations that such Person’s predecessor would have been entitled to receive hereunder with respect to such interest. A Member who Transfers its entire interest in the Company shall cease to have any of the rights and powers of a Member. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to treat the record holder of any interest as the absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for distributions made in good faith to such record holder, until such time as it has received written notice of such Transfer and all of the conditions to the effectiveness of such Transfer hereunder have been satisfied. A Person who acquires an interest in the Company (by any form of Transfer) but is not admitted as a substituted Member may not Transfer all or any portion of such interest without complying with this Section 11 in full as if such Person were a Member for such purpose.
11.4 Substituted Members. A Person who acquires an interest in the Company by any form of Transfer shall be admitted to the Company as a substituted Member only (i) with the consent of the Manager and each of the other Members, (ii) by satisfying the applicable requirements of Sections 11.1 and 11.2, (iii) by executing and delivering such documents and agreements as the Manager reasonably determines to be appropriate to effect such Person’s agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (iv) if necessary, upon an amendment to this Agreement or such other instrument, executed by all necessary parties and filed or recorded in the proper records of each jurisdiction in which such recordation is necessary to preserve the limited liability status of the Members; provided, however, that the Manager and the other Members (a) shall have no rights to consent to the admission pursuant to this Section 11.4 of any Transferee of an interest in the Company if they had no rights to consent to the Transfer of such interest to such Transferee under Section 11.1 and (b) may not unreasonably withheld their consents to the admission pursuant to this Section 11.4 of any Transferee of an interest in the Company if they could not unreasonably withhold their consents to the Transfer of such interest to such Transferee under Section 11.1. The admission of a substituted Member shall not dissolve the Company and shall be shown in the books and records of the Company. The Manager shall promptly provide the Members with written notice of the admission of any substituted Member.
11.5 Rights of Representatives. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if an individual Member that is an Entity is dissolved or terminated, the powers of such Member may be exercised by its personal representative to the extent required by the Act.
11.6 Partial Transfers. If there are two (2) or more Class A Members or Class B Members, as the case may be, after any Transfer by a Class A Member or Class B Member of an interest in the Company, then any subsequent consent, approval, vote or other action of “the Class A Member” or “the Class B Members” hereunder (including, without limitation, an amendment of this Agreement pursuant to Section 18.11) shall be validly effected if given or taken, as the case may be, by a majority in interest of the Class A Members or Class B Members as the case may be (based on their Capital Contributions, rights to share in distributions or other factors as the Manager determines, based on the terms of the Transfer, to be appropriate).
11.7 Costs and Expenses. Any costs or expenses incurred by the Company in connection with any Transfer or proposed Transferor of an interest in the Company shall be paid or reimbursed by the Transferor of such interest.
12. Withdrawals.
12.1 Withdrawals. Except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, no Member may (i) resign or withdraw from the Company or (ii) receive any distribution from the Company on account of its resignation or withdrawal (whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law) before the liquidation of the Company.
12.2 Retirement Events. From and after the time a Retirement Event occurs with respect to any Member (such Member, the “Retired Member”), such Retired Member (and, subject to Section 11, any Transferee of any interest of such Retired Member in the Company) shall, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, have the status of an unadmitted assignee of its interest in the Company and, as such, shall have none of the rights and powers of a Member hereunder or under the Act (including, without limitation, to vote, give consents or approvals, access Company records or otherwise manage or participate in the affairs of the Company) other than to receive the distributions and allocations that it otherwise would have been entitled to receive hereunder with respect to such interest.
13. Actions of the Members.
13.1 In General. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a Member’s consent, approval, vote or other action as to any matter may be effected by (i) the affirmative vote by such Member to the doing of the act or thing under consideration at any meeting called and held pursuant to Section 13.2 to consider such act or thing or (ii) a written consent given by such Member at, prior to or after the doing of the act or thing under consideration pursuant to Section 13.3.
13.2 Meetings. Any matter requiring the action of any one (1) or more of the Members hereunder may be considered at a meeting called by the Manager or any Member and held not less than three (3) nor more than thirty (30) Business Days after written notice thereof shall have been given to the Member(s) entitled to vote at the meeting. Any such notice shall state briefly the purpose, time and place of the meeting.
A Member may waive in writing the requirements for notice of a meeting before, during or after such meeting (and the attendance of a Member at any meeting shall constitute such Member’s waiver). All such meetings shall be held at such reasonable times and places as the Manager (or, in the case of a meeting of the Class A Member(s), such Class A Member(s)) shall determine. A Member may participate in any meeting by conference telephone call or similar communications equipment if all the Persons participating in such meeting can hear each other. Such participation of a Member shall constitute the presence of such Member at such meeting. At any meeting of one (1) or more of the Members, the presence in person, or by conference telephone call or similar communications equipment, of Members sufficient to approve the action under consideration shall be required to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting. When a quorum is present at any meeting of one (1) or more of the Members, the vote of Members sufficient to approve the action under consideration shall decide any matter brought before such meeting, unless the matter is one upon which by express provision of law or this Agreement, a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision on such matter.
13.3 Action Without Meeting. Any action that may be taken at a meeting of any one (1) or more of the Members may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, are signed by one (1) or more Members (or their proxy holders) whose votes would be sufficient to authorize or take such action at a meeting and delivered to the Company (and, if the consent of more than one (1) Member is required, are delivered to the Company within a period of sixty (60) consecutive days). Any copy, facsimile or other reliable reproduction of a consent in writing may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing for any and all purposes for which the original writing could be used, provided that such copy, facsimile or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing. Prompt notice of the taking of any action without a meeting by fewer than all of the Members entitled to participate in such action shall be given to those Members who have not consented in writing.
13.4 Proxies. A Member entitled to vote at a meeting of one (1) or more of the Members, or to express consent or dissent to Company action in writing without a meeting, may authorize another Person or Persons to act for it by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period.
13.5 No Other Voting Rights. A Member shall have no rights to vote, give consents or approvals, or otherwise manage or participate in the affairs of the Company except as expressly provided in this Agreement or in any mandatory provision of the Act.
14. Dissolution; Wind-up; Liquidating Distributions.
14.1 Events Causing Dissolution. The Company shall dissolve (i) at the time that there are no remaining Members of the Company unless the business of the Company is continued in accordance with the Act, (ii) on the effective date specified in a
written election to dissolve the Company adopted by the Class A Member at any time after the Effective Date of this Agreement or (iii) the time of the judicial dissolution of the Company under the Act.
14.2 Wind-up. The Manager (or, if one is appointed under the Act, a liquidating trustee) shall be responsible for the winding up and liquidation of the Company. Subject to Section 8.3 (it being agreed, however, that Section 8.3.1 shall not apply after the Company’s dissolution), after the dissolution of the Company, the Manager (or such liquidating trustee) shall collect the Company’s receivables, pay the Company’s debts and obligations, and liquidate or distribute the Company’s assets as promptly as is practicable and consistent with obtaining fair value for the Company’s assets, having due regard to the activity and condition of the relevant markets and general financial and economic conditions. After the Company’s affairs have been wound up and its debts and obligations have been paid or provided for, the Manager shall (i) make a final allocation of Profit or Loss, as the case may be, and other items in such amounts and proportions as are necessary (to the extent possible) for the Members’ capital account balances to equal the amounts of any remaining assets of the Company they would be entitled to receive if such remaining assets were to be distributed in accordance with Section 7 (subject to the limitations set forth therein) and (ii) then distribute such remaining assets to the Members in accordance with Section 7. Until the Company’s termination pursuant to Section 14.4, the business of the Company and the affairs of the Manager and Members, as such, shall continue to be governed by this Agreement, provided that the Company shall engage in no further business other than in connection with its wind-up and liquidation.
14.3 Bid by the Manager. Within ninety (90) days after the Company’s election to dissolve, the Manager shall prepare and deliver to the Class A Member, at the Manager’s expense, a bid for the Class A Member’s interest in the Company at a price, and on such other terms and conditions, as the Manager determines to be appropriate in its sole discretion. If, within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such bid, the Class A Member delivers a written notice to the Manager approving the sale of its interest in the Company to the Manager at the price, and on the other terms and conditions, set forth in such bid, then the Manager shall purchase, and the Class A Member shall sell, the Class A Member’s interest in the Company at such price and on such terms and conditions. The Manager may assign its right to purchase the interest of the Class A Member to one (1) or more Persons as it determines to be appropriate. At any closing of a purchase and sale pursuant to this Section 14.3, the Manager (or its assignee) shall make such deliveries in payment, and the Class A Member shall make such deliveries of instruments of assignment, as are necessary to effect such purchase and sale (with all of the required deliveries deemed made simultaneously and none deemed completed until all have been completed). If the Class A Member does not deliver such notice of approval to the Manager, the Manager shall have no obligation or right to purchase the Class A Member’s interest in the Company.
14.4 Termination. The dissolution of the Company shall be effective on the day on which the event occurs giving rise to the dissolution, but the Company shall
not terminate until the winding up of the business and affairs of the Company has been completed as provided herein and a certificate of cancellation of the Company has been filed with the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Manager (or the liquidating trustee, as the case may be), acting singly, is authorized to execute and file a certificate of cancellation on behalf of the Company.
14.5 Liquidating Trust. With the approval of the Portfolio A Advisor, if the Company has not been liquidated by the second anniversary of the date of its dissolution pursuant to Section 14.1, the Manager (or liquidating trustee) may distribute the non-cash assets of the Company (other than any Marketable Securities) to a trust established for the sole purposes of liquidating such remaining assets, collecting amounts owed to the Company and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company. The Manager (or such liquidating trustee) shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that such trust qualifies as a liquidating trust under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-4(d). The distribution to the trust shall constitute a final, liquidating distribution of assets pursuant to 14.2 (with any asset distributed in kind to the trust being treated as if it were an amount of cash equal its fair market value as determined pursuant to Section 7.7). For purposes of determining and allocating Profit, Loss and other items pursuant to Section 6, any asset that is to be distributed in kind to such trust shall be treated as having then been sold by the Company for its value as determined for purposes of applying this Section 14.5 (provided that, for such purposes, the fair market value of any asset that is distributed subject to a nonrecourse indebtedness shall be deemed not to be less than the amount of such indebtedness). The Members’ relative beneficial interests in the trust shall be equal to their respective relative interests in the assets contributed to the liquidating trust as of the time that such assets are contributed to the liquidating trust.
15. Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to withhold and pay over, or otherwise pay, any withholding or other taxes payable by the Company at such times and based upon such rates as the Manager determines to be appropriate. If the Company makes a payment of tax for any accounting period with respect to any Member or as a result of any Member’s participation in the Company, such Member shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have received the amount of such payment as a distribution from the Company on the last day of the period for which the tax is withheld and paid or, if earlier, on the last day on which such Member owned an interest in the Company. Any deemed distribution to a Member pursuant to this Section 15 shall be treated (to the extent not repaid to the Company) as an advance of, and shall offset, an equal amount of distributions that would otherwise thereafter be made to such Member pursuant to the provisions of Section 7 in the order that such distributions would otherwise have been made. To the extent that the aggregate of such distributions to a Member for any month exceeds the distributions to which such Member would otherwise be entitled for such month, the amount of such excess shall be repaid by such Member to the Company within thirty (30) days after the end of such month.
16. Books; Reports.
16.1 Books and Records. The books and records of the Company, including a list of the names and business or mailing addresses of the Members, shall be maintained at the principal office of the Company in accordance with the Act. All of the books and records of the Company shall be available for examination at the offices of the Company in which they are maintained by any Member or by any Member’s duly authorized representatives at any and all reasonable times upon reasonable notice. Each Member, or such Member’s duly authorized representatives, upon written notice to the Manager and upon paying the costs of collection, duplication and mailing, shall be entitled for any purpose reasonably related to such Member’s interest as a Member in the Company to a copy of information to which such Member is entitled under the Act. The Company may maintain such other books and records and may provide such financial or other statements as the Manager and the Portfolio A Advisor mutually agree upon.
16.2 Accounting; Tax Year. The Company shall report its operations for tax purposes on such method and based upon such taxable year as the Manager determines to be appropriate consistent with applicable federal income tax laws.
