AGREEMENT

PURCHASER’S DUE DILIGENCE CONTINGENCY

1. Contribution in Consideration of Issuance of the 50% Interest.

1.1 Issuance of the 50% Interest. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company agrees to immediately issue to Purchaser or into escrow at the Closing (as defined below) the 50% Interest to American Restaurant Concepts, Inc., and Purchaser agrees to contribute to the Company a total contribution of $400,000.00 in cash, with the Company acknowledging receipt of $350,000.00 prior to Closing and with the balance due being $50,000.00, and $400,000 worth of shares of Purchaser’s (“ARC”) common stock (valued at the listed opening bid price of the ARC stock on XXXXxxxxxx.xxx on the morning of Closing) (the “ARC Shares”) (such cash and ARC Shares collectively the “Contribution”).

1.2 The Closing. The closing of the Contribution to the Company, and the Company’s issuance of the 50% Interest to the Purchaser (the “Closing”) shall take place no later than January 20, 2014. At the Closing, Purchaser shall (i) contribute to the Company the balance due of the cash portion ($50,000) of the Contribution by check, wire transfer or such other form of payment as shall be mutually agreed upon by Purchaser and the Company, (ii) deliver the ARC Shares to the Company, and (iii) execute and deliver a copy of the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of the Company to the Company, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Operating Agreement”), and the Company shall (i) transfer the 50% Interest to the Purchaser, and (ii) deliver a copy of the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement executed by a majority of the Members to the Purchaser.

1.3 Restructure of Ownership in the Company.

(a) In General. Prior to the Effective Date, the Members of the Company own 100% of the Company. Concurrent with the Contribution and issuance of the 50% Interest to Purchaser, the Members’ ownership interest in the Company shall be converted to 117.65 “Class A” Membership Units having a preferred right to distributions from the Company of the ARC Shares (as compared to the “Class B” Membership Units), and the Company shall issue Purchaser collectively 117.65 “Class B” Membership Units of the Company (which shall be identical to the Class A Membership Units in all respects except for preferential rights to distributions described above and in the Company’s Amended and Restated Operating Agreement). The Members shall receive collectively 117.65 Class A Membership Units, and Purchaser shall receive collectively 117.65 Class B Membership Units. The Operating Agreement reflects the ownership of the Company after giving effect to the issuance of the 50% Interest, with the Members holding in the aggregate 100% of the Class A Membership Units and Purchaser holding 100% of the Class B Membership Units.

(b) Intent and Effect of Transaction. The intent and effect of the transaction is to treat Members and Purchaser as if each were Members of the Company as of January 20, 2014 and as if Purchaser had invested in the Company on January 20, 2014. For all tax return filing and reporting purposes, Purchaser shall be treated as a member of the Company from and after January 20, 2014. With the exception of any gain, income, or loss associated with Company’ ownership of the ARC Shares, which shall be allocated exclusively to the Class A unitholders, Purchaser shall be entitled to 50% of all items of income, gain, losses, deductions and expenses (the “Items”) of the Company after January 20, 2014. The Operating Agreement shall reflect and embody the provisions of the prior two sentences. The parties confirm and agree that the provisions of this Section 1.3 reflect the parties’ intent and the provisions of this Agreement and the Operating Agreement shall be interpreted, and all tax reports and returns shall be filed, consistent with this intent.

1.4 Use of Contribution Funds. The Company agrees that it will not use the Contribution funds to pay salaries or bonuses to any of the Company’s Members, employees and/or managers’ salaries, and agrees to use the funds only according to the following purposes: repayment of debt associated with expansion efforts, additional marketing efforts, payment of finders’ fees, and legal and accounting fees, by a vote of sixty (60%) percent of the total Class A and Class B Membership Units, after the Closing.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement, the execution by the Members of the Operating Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will not result in any such violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time or giving of notice, either a default under any such provision or an event that results in the creation of any lien, charge, or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or non-renewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company, its business, operations, assets or properties.

2.11 Equity Holder Agreements. Except as contemplated by this Agreement and the Operating Agreement, there are no agreements between the Company and any of the Company’s equity holders, or among any of the Company’s equity holders, which in any way affect any equity holder’s ability or right to freely transfer or vote such interests (except restrictions designed to provide compliance with securities laws).

2.12 Offering. The issuance of the 50% Interest as contemplated by this Agreement is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and neither the Company nor any authorized agent acting on its behalf will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemption.

The Company may not make a call for additional capital contributions or the admission of a new Member except upon the unanimous consent of the Managers and ninety (90%) percent consent of the Members.

Prior to the issuance of Units to other Members or third party investors, the Company shall give written notice to all Members, specifying the number of Units to be issued, the consideration to be paid for such Units, and such other material terms and conditions as the Manager deems appropriate.

Each Member acknowledges and agrees that the sale of any of such additional Units shall result in the dilution of the interest in the Company of the Members.

3.4 Capital Accounts.

3.4.1 A separate “Capital Account” (herein so called) shall be maintained for each Member in accordance with the capital accounting rules of section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Regulations. Each Member shall have only one Capital Account regardless of the number or classes of Units in the Company owned by such Member and regardless of the time or manner in which such Units were acquired by such Member. Pursuant to the basic rules of section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Regulations, the balance of each Member’s Capital Account shall be:

(a)

Credited with: (i) the amount of money contributed by such Member to the Company and the fair market value of any property contributed by such Member to the Company (net of liabilities secured by such property that the Company assumes or takes subject to); (ii) except as provided below, the amount of taxable income or gain allocated to such Member; and (iii) such Member’s pro rata share of any tax exempt income or gain of the Company; and

(b)

Debited with: (i) the amount of money (excluding guaranteed payments) and the agreed fair market value of any property distributed to such Member (net of liabilities secured by such property that the Member assumes or takes subject to); ii) except as provided below, the amount of taxable loss and deductions (or items thereof) allocated to such Member; and (iii) such Member’s pro rata share of any expenditures of the Company described in section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code (or expenditures which are so treated under section 1.704-(b) of the Regulations; and

(c)

Shall be otherwise adjusted in accordance with the other capital account maintenance rules of section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Regulations.

In addition, if property is distributed in kind by the Company, the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to reflect the manner in which the unrealized income, gain, loss, and deduction inherent in such property (that has not already been reflected in the Member’s Capital Accounts) would be allocated to the Members if there were a taxable disposition of such property for its agreed fair market value on the date of distribution.

3.4.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if property is contributed to the Company by a Member, the Company shall thereafter compute gain, loss, and depreciation in respect to the contributed property separately for book and tax purposes as required by sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv), 1.704-1(b)(4)(i), and 1.704-(b)(4)(iii) of the Regulations. Such items so computed for book purposes shall be allocated among the Members in the manner provided in Article 4 below and shall be reflected in the Members’ Capital Accounts by appropriate increases or decreased thereto as required by section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(b) of the Regulations. Such items so allocated for tax purposes shall not be reflected in the Members’ Capital Accounts.

3.4.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the Members that their Capital Accounts in the Company be maintained strictly in accordance with the capital account maintenance requirements of section 1.704-1(b) of the Regulations, and that their Capital Accounts be adjusted to the extent required by the provisions of such Regulations or any successor provisions thereto.

3.4.4 A loan by a Member to the Company shall not be considered a contribution of money to the capital of the Company, and the balance of such Member’s Capital Account shall not be increased by the amount so loaned, unless such loan is determined by the Internal Revenue Service in a final administrative proceeding to be a capital contribution by such Member. No repayment of principal or interest on any such loan, or reimbursement made to a Member with respect to advances or other payments made by such Member on behalf of the Company, or payments of fees to a Member or its Affiliates which are made by the Company shall be considered a return of capital or in any manner affect the balance of such Member’s Capital Account.

3.4.5 Except as otherwise provided herein or by the Act, no Member having a negative balance in its Capital Account shall have any obligation to the Company or any other Member to restore its Capital Account to zero. A deficit Capital Account of a Member shall not be deemed to be a liability of such Member or an asset or property of the Company.

3.4.6 Return of Capital. Except to the extent provided in Article 4 below and U.C.A 48-2c-1005 (2001 as amended), a member may demand payment from the Company of the fair market value of the member’s interest in the Company only: upon the dissolution and completion of winding up of the company; or upon the date or occurrence of an event specified in the Articles of Organization or Operating Agreement for redemption of the members interest. Except as otherwise provided in the Articles of Organization or this Operating Agreement, or with consent of all members, a member, regardless of the nature of the member’s contribution, has only the right to receive cash in redemption of the member’s interest in the Company.

3.4.7 No Interest on Capital Contributions. Except as otherwise provided herein, no Member shall receive any interest on such Member’s capital contributions to the Company or such Member’s Capital Account, notwithstanding any disproportion therein as between the Members.

RESTRICTIVE WORDING

TO BE INCLUDED ON CERTIFICATES AS FOLLOWS:

3.5 Investment Representation. Each Member represents to the Company and the other Members that (a) the Member is acquiring a Membership Interest in the Company for investment and for the Member’s own account and not with a view to its sale or distribution and (b) neither the Company nor any other Member has made any guaranty or representation upon which the Member has relied concerning the possibility or probability of profit or loss resulting from the Member’s investment in the Company.

3.6 Capital Account Adjustments. Except as otherwise provided in the Amended Articles of Organization or this Amended Operating Agreement, the capital accounts of all members shall be adjusted, either increased or decreased, to reflect the revaluation of company assets, including intangible assets such as goodwill, on the Company’s books in connection with any of the following events:

3.6.1 A capital contribution, other than a de minimis contribution, same by or on behalf of a new member or an additional capital contribution, other than a de minimis contribution, made by or on behalf of an existing member;

3.6.2 A distribution, other than a de minimis amount, made in partial or complete redemption of a member’s interest in the Company; or

3.6.3 The dissolution and winding up of the Company.

Article 4

Allocations and Distributions

4.1 Allocations of Income and Loss. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2, the Company’s items of Net Income and Loss from Operations for each Fiscal Year and gain and loss realized by the Company in connection with each Capital Transaction, after giving effect to all Capital Account adjustments attributable to contributions and distributions of money and property made during such Fiscal Year (but excluding income and loss, if any, that is required to be separately determined and allocated to the Members for federal income tax purposes in the same manner as prescribed under section 704(c) of the Code), shall be allocated to the Members as follows:

4.1.1 Any Net Income or gain shall be allocated in the following order of priority.

First: To each Member, an amount equal to the negative balance (if any) in such Member’s Capital Account; provided, however, that if the gain to be allocated pursuant to this Section 4.1.1 is insufficient to cause the negative balance in each Member’s Capital Account to equal zero, then the gain shall first be allocated to the Members with negative Capital Account balances, pro rata in accordance with their respective negative Capital Account balances.

Second: An amount of income shall next be allocated to the Members (as necessary) so as to cause the positive balances in their respective Capital Accounts to be in the same proportion to each other as are their respective ownership percentages.

Third: All remaining gain shall be allocated to the Members, pro rata in accordance to their respective Ownership Percentages.

4.1.2 Loss (if any) shall be allocated as follows:

First: Loss shall be allocated to the Members until each Member’s Capital Account equals zero, provided, however, if there is not a sufficient amount of loss to be allocated to reduce the Members’ Capital Accounts to zero, loss shall first be allocated to the Members (as necessary) so to cause their Capital Accounts to be in the same proportions to one another as are their respective Ownership Percentages, and the balance of loss shall be allocated to the Members, pro rata in accordance with their respective Ownership Percentages.

Second: Any remaining loss shall be allocated to the Members pro rata in accordance with their respective Ownership Percentages.

4.1.3 For purposes of determining the nature (as ordinary or capital) of any income or gain in respect to a capital transaction allocated to the Members for federal income tax purposes pursuant to this Article 4 hereof, such income or gain (if any) required to be recognized as ordinary income pursuant to section 1245 and/or 1250 of the Code shall be deemed to be allocated among the Members in the same proportion that they were allocated and claimed the depreciation deductions, or basis reductions, directly or indirectly giving rise to such treatment under sections 1245 and/or 1250 of the Code.

4.2 Limitations and Qualifications Regarding Allocations. Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 4 Net Income and Loss for each Fiscal Year and gain and loss realized by the Company (or items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit, as the case may be) shall be allocated in accordance with the following provisions to the extent such provisions shall be applicable.

4.2.1 If the allocation of Net Loss (or items thereof) as provided in Article 4.1(1) hereof would cause or increase a deficit balance in a Member’s Capital Account, there shall be allocated to such Member only that amount of net loss (or items thereof) as will not cause or increase a deficit balance in the Member’s Capital Account. The net loss (or items thereof) that would, absent the application of the preceding sentence, otherwise be allocated to such Member shall be allocated (i) first, to the other Members having positive balances in their Capital Accounts, in proportions to such positive balances; and (ii) second, to all the Members in accordance with their respective Ownership Percentages. For purposes hereof, each Member’s Capital Account shall be reduced for the items described in this Article 4. If any allocation of net loss (or items thereof) is made under this Article 4, any allocation of Net Income and gain (including income and gain exempt from tax) of the Company allocated thereafter shall first be allocated as necessary to offset in reverse order the allocation made pursuant to this Section 4.2(1).

4.2.2 If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustment allocation or distribution described in clauses (4), (5), and (6) under Regulation Section 1.704.1(b)(2)(ii)(d), such Member shall be allocated, before any other allocation is made pursuant to Section 4.1, items of income and gain (including a pro rata portion of each item of income, including gross income and gain for such years) in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, as quickly as possible, the deficit balance, if any, in such Member’s Capital Account (in excess of any limited dollar amount that such Member is obligated or treated as obligated to restore by contribution, within the meaning of Regulation section 1.704-1-(b)(ii)(d)(2)). This provision is intended to be a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of section 1.704-1-(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Regulations and should be interpreted and implemented as provided therein. Any allocation of income or gain pursuant to this section shall be taken into account in computing subsequent allocations of income and gain pursuant to this Section 4.2 and Section 4.1 so that the net amount of all such allocations to each Member shall, to the extent possible, be equal to the net amount of income and gain that would have been allocated to each Member pursuant to Section 4.1 is such unexpected adjustment, allocation, or distribution had not occurred.

4.3 Allocation of Income, Loss, and Distributions in Respect of Units Transferred.

4.3.1 If any Units in the Company are transferred, or are increased or decreased by reason of the admission of a new Member or otherwise, during any Fiscal Year of the Company, each item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of the Company for such Fiscal Year shall be assigned pro rata to each day in the particular period of such Fiscal Year to which such item is attributable (i.e.,the day on or during which it is accrued or otherwise incurred) and the amount of each such item so assigned to any such day shall be allocated to the Members based upon their respective Units in the Company at the close of such day. For purposes of accounting convenience and simplicity, the Company shall treat a transfer of, or an increase or decrease in, Units in the Company which occurs at any time during a semi-monthly period (commencing with the semi-monthly period including the date hereof) as having been consummated on the first day of such semi-monthly period, regardless of when during such semi-monthly period such transfer, increase, or decrease actually occurs (i.e., sales and dispositions made during the first 15 days of any month will be deemed to have been made on the first day of the month and sales and dispositions thereafter will be deemed to have been made on the 16th day of the month).

4.3.2 Distributions of assets of the Company in respect to Units in the Company shall be made only to the persons or entities who, according to the books and records of the Company, are the holders of record of Units in respect of which such distributions are made on the actual date of distribution.

In the case of any criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

(a)

In connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the Company in which the manager was adjudged liable to the Company; or

6.6 Indemnification of Members, Employees, Fiduciaries, and Agents.

6.6.1 The Company may not indemnify a manager unless authorized and a determination has been made in the specific case that indemnification of the manager is permissible in the circumstances because the manager has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 6.4.

6.7.3 a determination is made that the facts then known to those making the determination would not preclude indemnification under this part.

The undertaking required by the above must be an unlimited general obligation of the manager but need not be secured and may be accepted without reference to financial ability to make repayment.

Determinations and authorizations of payments under this section shall be made in the manner specified above.

Upon the assignment or transfer of a Member’s interest in the Company, (i) the Company shall not be required to recognize any such assignment or transfer until the Company has received written notice of the same; (ii) no such assignment or transfer of an interest in the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, shall of itself, dissolve the Company; (iii) the assignee or transferee of the Member’s interest in the Company shall not thereby become entitled to vote or otherwise participate in the management of the Company’s business and affairs, or to require any information or accounts of Company transactions, or to inspect the Company books and records, or to become a Member; (iv) the assignee or transferee shall only be entitled to receive, in accordance with the contact or order of assignment or transfer, the share of profits, or other compensation by way of income and the return of contributions to which the assigning Member would otherwise be entitled under this Agreement and, in case of the winding-up of the Company, the assignee or transferee shall be entitled to receive such distribution as would otherwise be made to the assigning Member.

7.2 Liability of Assignor Continues. An assignor of an interest in the Company is not released from liability to the Company by reason of the assignment or by reason of the assignee’s becoming a member.

7.3 Invalid Transfers. Any transfer or assignment of a member’s interest in the Company in violation of this Operating Agreement is void.

7.4 Admission as Substituted Member. With the exception of permitted transfers as provided in Section 7.5 of this Agreement, no purchaser, assignee or other transferee (by conveyance, operation of law or otherwise) of all or any part of an interest in the Company shall have the right to become a substituted Member in place of that person’s seller, assignor, or transferor, and thereby, become entitled to vote and participate in the management of the business and affairs of the Company, unless all of the following conditions are satisfied (all subsequent references in this agreement to “assignor” and “assignee” shall be construed to include sellers and purchasers, transferrers and transferees, donors and donees, and otherwise, as the case may be):

7.4.4 Managers holding an affirmative vote have consented in writing to the substitution, which consent shall be exercisable in the Managers’ sole discretion.

(a)

The number of Units or other interest in the Company (the “Transferable Interest”) which the Transferring Member desires to transfer;

(b)

The identity and address of the proposed purchaser or other transferee;

(c)

That the Transferring Member had received a bona fide offer therefor, if a sale is contemplated;

(d)

The cash and other consideration (per Unit and in the aggregate) to be received by the Transferring Member in connection with such disposition;

(e)

A true copy of the offer or agreement, if any, for such sale or other disposition and a certification by the Transferring Member that, to the best of his or her knowledge and belief, the offer or agreement is genuine and in all respects what it purports to be;

(f)

An offer to sell to the Company and the other Members the Transferable Interest in accordance with this Section 7.3; and

(g)

Such other information as may be necessary or desirable in order to afford to the Company and the other Members the benefits intended to be conferred by this Section 7.3.

To the extent the terms of such sale or other transfer provide for the receipt by the Transferring Member of consideration other than cash or cash equivalents, the Transfer Notice shall also include a fair market appraisal of such consideration prepared by a qualified independent appraiser.

7.5.2 The Company shall have 30 days from the date of receipt by it of the Transfer Notice to elect to purchase all or any part of the Transferable Interest. To the extent the Company does not elect to purchase all of such interest, the other Members shall have 60 days from the date of the expiration of the Company’s option to elect to purchase all or any part of the Transferable Interest to which each Member shall be entitled to purchase (in the absence of a unanimous consent among such Members, in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages), such election to be made by delivering written notice of such election to the Transferring Member within such 30-day period.

7.5.3 If the Company and some, but not all, of the other Members timely exercise their election to so purchase their respective shares of the Transferable Interest not purchased by the Company, or if the other Members elect to purchase less than all of the Transferable Interest not purchased by the Company, then the Transferring Member after expiration of such 60-day option period to the other Members shall promptly give written notice (a “Second Notice”) to each of the Members so exercising the election that certain of the Transferable Interest remains available for purchase by them. Each of such exercising Members shall have 30 days from the date of receipt by him/her of the Second Notice to elect to purchase his or her proportionate share (in the absence of a unanimous consent among such exercising Members, determined by reference to the total ownership Percentages held by only the electing other Members) of such remaining Transferable Interest, such election to be made by his or her delivering to the Transferring Member written notice of such election within such 30-day period.

7.5.4 If the Company and/or some or all of the other Members have timely elected to purchase all of the Transferable Interest, then the Company and each of the electing other Members shall purchase that part of the Transferable Interest which it has elected to purchase within 5 days after expiration of such 60-day or 30-day period, as applicable, on a date and at a time designated by the Company and/or electing other Members in a written notice to be given at least two days in advance to the Transferring Member by the Company and/or electing other Members, and at the principal place of business of the Company. At the closing, the Transferring Member shall deliver certificates or other evidence of ownership representing the Transferable Interest being purchased, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by duly executed transfer documents acceptable to the Company and the purchasing Members.

7.5.5 The purchase by the Company and/or the other Members shall be at the price and upon the same terms and conditions as contained in the Transfer Notice; provided, however, that if the Transfer Notice provides for payment of all or any portion of the purchase price by delivery of consideration other than cash or cash equivalents, the Company and/or other Members may make payment of such portion of the purchase price in cash or cash equivalents in the amount of the fair market value of such non-cash consideration as set forth in the appraisal accompanying the Transfer Notice. If, however, the Company or the other Members, as the case may be, electing to purchase the Transferable Interest shall object to such appraisal of the non-cash consideration within the time period set forth above for electing to purchase the Transferable Interest, the Company or the other Members so electing to purchase shall within such period select an independent appraiser to determine such fair market value. In the event that the independent appraisers selected by each of the Transferring Members and the Company, or the other Members electing to purchase, cannot agree on the fair market value. The two independent appraisers shall mutually select a third independent appraiser to determine the fair market value, and the value selected by such third independent appraiser shall be binding on all of the parties hereto. Each such independent appraiser may use any customary method of determining fair market value. Each party shall bear the costs of the independent appraiser selected by that party and the cost of the independent appraiser, if any, mutually selected by the two independent appraisers shall be paid one-half by the Transferring Member and one-half by the Company or such other Members.

7.5.6 If the Company and the other Members do not timely elect to purchase all of the transferable Interest pursuant to this Section 7.5, the Transferring Member, within 30 days after the expiration of such 60-day period or 30-day period, as applicable, may transfer the Transferable Interest to the purchasers or other transferee named in the Transfer Notice for the consideration and on the other terms set forth in the Transfer Notice and not otherwise. Upon failure of the Transferring Member to effect such transfer pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in the Transfer Notice within such 30-day period, the right to transfer such interest shall lapse, and any desired transfer thereafter shall be made only upon compliance again with the notice and election procedures of this Section.

7.5.7 Purchasing Members shall become substituted Members with respect to interest purchased under this Section 7.5 as soon as the purchase has been accomplished according to the terms hereof. Any other purchaser or transferee of the Transferring Member’s interest shall not be entitled to become a substitute Member except as provided in Section 7.4.

7.6 Option to Purchase Interest Upon Certain Events.

7.6.1 If a Member’s interest is transferred pursuant to (i) an adjudication of the Members as a bankrupt; (j) an entry of an order, judgment or decree by any court of competent jurisdiction appointing a trustee, receiver of liquidator of the assets of the Member; (k) an assignment or attempted assignment by the Member for the benefit of creditors; (l) the institution or attempted institution of voluntary bankruptcy proceedings by the Member; (m) the divorce or separation of the Member from his or her spouse under which by judicial decree the Member is required to transfer all or part of his or her interest in the Company to his or her spouse; or (n) the death of the Member, then, in any such event (an “Option Event”), the Company and, to the extent the Company does not elect to purchase all of such interest, the other Members shall have the option, but not the obligation, to purchase from such Member (or from such Member’s estate or legal successor(s)) (the “Subject Member”) the Subject Member’s interest in the Company transferred.

7.6.2 Not later than ninety (90) days after the occurrence of an Option Event, the Subject Member (or the Subject Member’s estate or successor(s)) shall notify the Company of such occurrence, which notice shall set forth (a) a description of the Option Event; (b) the Units (the “Option Units”) which the Company and the other Members have the right to purchase pursuant to this Section 7.6.2by reason of such Option Event; (c) the identity of the Subject Member; and (d) such other information as may be necessary or desirable in order to afford to the Company and the other Members the benefits intended to be conferred by this Section 7.6.2.

7.6.3 The Company shall have 30 days from the date of receipt by it of the Option Notice to elect to purchase all or any part of the Option Units. To the extent the Company does not elect to purchase all of such interest, the other Members shall have 60 days from the date of the expiration of the Company’s option to elect to purchase all or any part of the Option Units to which each Member shall be entitled to Ownership Percentages), such election to be made by delivering written notice of such election to the Subject Member within such 60-day period.

7.6.4 If the Company and some, but not all, of the other Members timely exercise their election to so purchase their respective shares of the Option Units not purchased by the Company, or if the other Members elect to purchase less than all of the Option Units not purchased by the Company, then the Subject Member, after expiration of such 60-day option period to the other Members, shall promptly give written notice (a “Section Notice”) to each of the other Members so exercising their election that certain of the Option Units remain available for purchase by them. Each of such exercising other Members shall have 30 days from the date of receipt by him/her of the Second Notice to elect to purchase his or her proportionate share (in the absence of a unanimous consent among such exercising other Members, determined by reference to the total Ownership Percentages held by only the electing other Members) of such remaining Option Units, such election to be made by his or her delivering to the Subject Member written notice of such election within such 30-day period.

7.6.5 If the Company and/or some or all of the other Members have timely elected to purchase all of the Option Units, then the Company and each of the electing other Members shall purchase that part of the Option Units which it has elected to purchase within 5 days after expiration of such 60-day or 30-day period, as applicable, on a date and at a time designated by the Company and/or electing other Members in a written notice to be given at least two days in advance to the Subject Member by the Company and/or electing other Members, and at the principal place of business of the Company.

7.6.6 The purchase price for the Option Units purchased by the Company or another Member shall be the fair market value (“FMV”) of the interest as of the date of the occurrence of the Option Event as determined herein. The Company shall pay for and obtain an independent appraisal of all real estate and unlisted securities (including options and warrants). Listed securities shall be valued at the market price (bid) for such securities. All other assets shall be valued at their book value. The FMV of the interest being purchased shall be based on the relative percentage of ownership of the Company based on the total number of Units outstanding as of the valuation date multiplied by the sum of (a) the fair market value of the real estate and unlisted securities as determined by appraisal; plus (b) the market price (bid) for any listed securities; plus (c) the book value of all other assets; minus (d) total Company liabilities as the valuation date.

7.7 Permitted Transfers. Nothing in this agreement shall be deemed to prohibit or limit the sale, assignment or transfer from a Member of all or any part of the Member’s interest in the Company to another existing Member of the Company, and no such sale, assignment, or transfer shall create a right, interest, or power in any other Member, or in the Company, or any other person, to purchase or acquire such interest in the Company, nor shall the Member who desires to sell, assign, or transfer all or any part of that Member’s interest in the Company to another Member be required to obtain the prior consent of the other Members or the Company or to offer such interest to the other Members or to the Company.

7.8 Estate Planning Transfers. Estate Planning Transfer shall mean any transfer made during the life of a Member without value, or for less than full consideration, by a Member to:
