Any Manager may be removed from the Board of Managers, whether with or without cause, only by the Member that appointed him or her. In the event of a vacancy in a ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Manager’s position for any reason (including, without limitation, a ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Manager’s resignation or removal), such vacancy shall be filled by the designation of a successor Manager by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.

Any action that may be taken at a meeting of the Board of Managers may be taken without a meeting if all of the Managers consent thereto in writing. As of the date hereof, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has appointed ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇. and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ as the initial ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Managers to serve until his or her removal or resignation as a ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Manager.

For purposes of this Article 10, the term “Permitted Transfer” shall mean (subject at all times to the provisions of Section 10.05) as follows: with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, any Transfer of a Membership Interest to any Person Controlled by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Power Inc., a Delaware corporation; and with respect to TEPS, any Transfer of a Membership Interest to any Person Controlled by ThermoEnergy Corporation, a Delaware corporation. Any Permitted Transfer shall be expressly conditioned upon obtaining an agreement that if, at any time after such Transfer, the transferee ceases to be Controlled by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Power Inc. (in the case of a Transfer by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇) or by ThermoEnergy Corporation (in the case of a Transfer by TEPS), then such transferee shall immediately Transfer such Membership Interest to a Person Controlled by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Power, Inc. or ThermoEnergy Corporation (as the case may be). In the event of a Permitted Transfer by a Member, the Member to whom such Permitted Transfer relates shall promptly provide evidence of compliance with Article 10 to the Board of Managers.

10.04 Effect of Bankruptcy or Dissolution of a Member. The dissolution or adjudication of bankruptcy of a Member shall not dissolve the Company. Each of the parties hereto agrees that any Transfer of a Member’s interest in the adjudication of a bankruptcy of such Member shall be (i) subject to the consent requirement in Section 10.01 and (ii) to the extent that the consent requirement in Section 10.01 is unenforceable, subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 11.02 as if the bankrupt Member were a Disposing Member, to the extent permitted by law.

10.05 Additional Restrictions on Transfer.

No Transfer of a Membership Interest by a Member (or by any Person owning any interest, directly or indirectly, in a Member) shall be a Permitted Transfer if such disposition would (i) cause the Company to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation (rather than a partnership) or as a publicly traded partnership for federal income tax purposes; (ii) violate the provisions of any federal or state securities laws; (iii) violate the terms of any law, rule or regulation binding on the Company; (iv) result in the termination of the Company under Section 708(b) of the Code; or (v) contravene any provision of, or trigger consent rights under, any other agreement of the Company (including without limitation any loan document or license agreement), unless consent is actually obtained, at the sole cost of the Member or Person seeking to Transfer, and such Transfer does not cause the Company to incur any costs or be in breach of any agreement, and does not render any agreement to which the Company is a party to be rendered terminable or be otherwise negatively affected.

10.06 Good Faith Cooperation. If any third party consent is necessary to satisfy any requirement of this Article 10, the Members agree to cooperate in good faith in order to obtain such consent.

11. Withdrawal of Members; Right of First Refusal.

11.01 Withdrawal of Members.

(A) A Member (the “Withdrawing Member”) may withdraw from the Company if an agreed upon milestone (a “Milestone”), as approved by the Board of Managers on the date hereof and as amended and/or modified from time to time by the Board of Managers, is not met, unless the failure to meet the Milestone is primarily attributable to the failure of such Member to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any Related Agreements.

(B) A Member who intends to withdraw from the Company shall have three (3) months from the date on which a Milestone is not met to give each other Member at least 30 days prior written notice of its intent to withdraw from the Company (a “Withdrawal Notice”). Upon withdrawal from the Company, the Withdrawing Member shall be entitled to receive a distribution of its Capital Account balance, subject to prior satisfaction of any outstanding Member Loans and any other obligations of the Company. The Company shall also grant a perpetual, non-exclusive royalty-free license to the Withdrawing Member with respect to all Company Intellectual Property owned by the Company, for use in Competing Activities, as of the date on which the Withdrawing Member notified the other Members of its intent to withdraw from the Company.

(C) Upon receipt of a Withdrawal Notice from a Withdrawing Member, any other Member may cause a termination and dissolution of the Company in accordance with Article 12 of this Agreement by giving written notice thereof (a “Dissolution Notice”) to all of the other Members of the Company, including the Withdrawing Member.

11.02 Right of First Refusal.

(A) If at any time any Member, who has previously obtained the other Members’ Consent to Transfer in accordance with Section 10.01 (the “Disposing Member”), conditioned on compliance with this Section 11.02, wishes to Transfer any or all of its Membership Interests pursuant to the terms of a bona fide offer received from a third party, such Disposing Member shall submit a written offer to sell such Membership Interests to each of the other Members on terms and conditions, including price, not less favorable to the Members than those on which such Disposing Member proposes to sell such Membership Interest to such third party (the “Offer”). The Offer shall disclose the identity of the proposed purchaser or transferee, the Percentage of Company Interests proposed to be sold or transferred and the agreed terms of the Transfer. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Offer (after which time the Offer shall expire), a Member shall give notice to the Disposing Member of its intent to purchase all or any portion of the offered Membership Interests on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Offer. Any statement of intent to buy all or part of a Membership Interest may be made subject to the satisfaction of any condition included in good faith in the notice of intent to purchase, such as obtaining financing.

(B) In the event that the Members do not purchase all of the Membership Interests offered by a Disposing Member pursuant to and within ninety (90) days after receipt of the Offer, such Disposing Member may Transfer unpurchased Membership Interests at any time within ninety (90) days after the expiration of the Offer, but subject to the provisions of Article 10 above. Any such Transfer shall be made only to the proposed purchaser or transferee identified in the Offer and shall be at not less than the price and upon other terms and conditions, if any, not more favorable to the purchaser or transferee than those specified in the Offer. Any part of the Membership Interest not sold or transferred within such ninety (90) day period shall continue to be subject to the requirements of a prior offer pursuant to this Section 11.02. In the event that Membership Interests are sold or transferred pursuant to this Section 11.02, said Membership Interests shall continue to be subject to this Agreement.

(C) If any attempted or purported Transfer of any Membership Interest is made without compliance with this Section 11.02, such Transfer shall be null and void.

12. Term.

12.01 Term and Dissolution. The existence of the Company shall continue until the earlier of:

(C) A date to be selected by the Board of Managers following the sale, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company Property; or

12.02 Liquidation of Company Property.

(A) In the event of dissolution and final termination of the Company, a full accounting of the assets and liabilities shall be taken and, subject to clause (B) of this Section 12.02, the assets shall be liquidated, with the proceeds therefrom distributed by the later of (i) the last day of the Fiscal Year in which the termination occurs or (ii) ninety (90) days after the date on which the termination occurs. Subject to clause (B) of this Section 12.02, the assets of the Company available for distribution to the Members shall be distributed to the Members in proportion to their positive Capital Accounts (after giving effect to adjustments attributable to all Company transactions prior to any such distributions and any amounts credited to the Capital Account of any Member). Upon the complete liquidation and distribution of the Company Property, the Members shall cease to be Members of the Company and the Members shall execute, acknowledge and cause to be filed any certificates and notices required by law to terminate the Company.

(B) Notwithstanding clause (A) of this Section 12.02, in the event of a dissolution and final termination of the Company, any Company Intellectual Property shall be jointly owned by the Members, and the Members shall enter into a joint ownership agreement evidencing such arrangement.

(C) Upon the dissolution of the Company pursuant to Section 12.01, the Board of Managers shall prepare or cause to be prepared and furnished to each Member a statement setting forth the assets and liabilities of the Company and, promptly following the complete liquidation and distribution of the Company Property, a statement showing the manner in which the Company Property was liquidated and distributed.

13. Disclosure and Publicity.

The Members hereby agree that all public disclosures concerning the parties or transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Related Agreements, such as press releases or written information distributed to financial intermediaries, shall require unanimous prior approval of all Members. However, to the extent any party determines in the exercise of its good faith judgment that any such disclosure is required by law, such party shall be entitled after notice to the other party to make such disclosure even if it has not obtained such approval.

1. Definitions. The following terms shall have the meaning ascribed to them for purposes of this Exhibit 1 and for purposes of the Agreement:

“Adjusted Capital Account Deficit” shall mean, with respect to any Member, the deficit balance, if any in such Member’s Capital Account as of the end of the relevant Fiscal Year, after giving effect to the following adjustments:

(A) Credit to such Capital Account any amounts which such Member is obligated to restore or 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); and

(B) Debit to such Capital Account the items described in Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6).

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

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

“Depreciation” means, for each Fiscal Year or other period, an amount equal to the depreciation, amortization, or other cost recovery deduction allowable with respect to an asset for such year or other period, except that if the Gross Asset Value of an asset differs from its adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes at the beginning of such year or other period, Depreciation shall be an amount which bears the same ratio to such beginning Gross Asset Value as the federal income tax depreciation, amortization, or other cost recovery deduction for such year or other period bears to such beginning adjusted tax basis; provided, however, that if the federal income tax depreciation, amortization, or other cost recovery deduction for such year is zero, Depreciation shall be determined with reference to such beginning Gross Asset Value using any reasonable method selected by the Board of Managers.

“Member 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 Regulations Section 1.704-2(i).

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

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

“Nonrecourse Deductions” has the meaning set forth in Regulations Sections 1.704-2(b)(1) and (c).

“Nonrecourse Liability” has the meaning set forth in Regulations Section 1.752-1(a)(2).

“Profits and Losses” means, for each Fiscal Year or other period, an amount equal to the Company’s taxable income or loss for such year or period, 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:

(A) Any income of the Company that is exempt from federal income tax and not otherwise taken into account in computing Profits or Losses pursuant to this definition shall be taken into account in computing such taxable income or loss;

(B) Any expenditures of the Company 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 Profits or Losses pursuant to this definition shall be taken into account in computing such taxable income or loss;

(C) In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company Property is adjusted pursuant to (B) or (C) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, the amount of such adjustment shall be taken into account as gain or loss from the disposition of such asset for purposes of computing Profits or Losses;

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

(E) To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company Property 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 Interest in the Company, the amount of such adjustment shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of such asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) from the disposition of such asset and shall be taken into account for purposes of computing Profits and Losses;

(F) In lieu of the depreciation, amortization, and other cost recovery deductions taken into account in computing such taxable income or loss, there shall be taken into account Depreciation for such Fiscal Year or other period, computed in accordance with the definition of Depreciation; and

(G) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this definition, any items which are specially allocated pursuant to Section 2(C) hereof shall not be taken into account in computing Profits or Losses.

The amounts of the items of Company income, gain, loss, expense or deduction available to be specially allocated pursuant to Section 2(C) hereof shall be determined by applying rules analogous to those set forth in paragraphs (A) through (F) above.

2. Allocation of Profit and Loss.

(A) After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 2(C), Profits and Losses for each Fiscal Year or other period shall be allocated among the Members such that the Capital Account of each Member, immediately after giving effect to such allocations, shall equal, as nearly as possible, (i) the amount of the distributions that would be made to such Member if (A) the Company were dissolved and terminated, (B) its affairs were wound up and each of its remaining assets were sold for their respective Gross Asset Values, (C) all liabilities of the Company were satisfied (limited with respect to each Nonrecourse Liability to the Gross Asset Value of the Company Property securing such liability); and (D) the net assets of the Company were distributed to the Members in accordance with Section 6.02 of this Agreement immediately after making the allocations provided for in this Exhibit 1, minus (ii) the Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain and Member Minimum Gain, computed immediately before the hypothetical sale of assets.

(B) Tax credits, tax credit recapture and related items shall be allocated in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(4)(ii) and 1.704-1(b)(4)(viii), as applicable.

(1) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Exhibit 1, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any taxable year of the Company, then, to the extent required by Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain relating to the Company Property for such taxable year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable 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). The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j). This Section 2(C)(1) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(2) Member Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Exhibit 1 except Section 2(C)(1), if there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain during any taxable year of the Company, then, to the extent required by Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), each Member who has a share of the Member Minimum Gain determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j). This Section 2(C)(2) is intended to comply with the partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirement in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(3) Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Company income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Company income, including gross income, and gain for such year) shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Member as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 2(C)(3) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Member would have a Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in Section 2 of this Exhibit 1 have been tentatively made as if this Section 2(C)(3) were not in this Exhibit.

(4) Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Fiscal Year, such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of income, including gross income, and gain for such year) relating to the Company Property, in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 2(C)(4) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in Section 2 of this Exhibit 1 have been tentatively made as if Section 2(C)(3) and this Section 2(C)(4) were not in this Exhibit.

(5) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year or other period relating to the Company Property shall be specially allocated to the Members in proportion to their Percentages of Company Interest.

(6) Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year or other period relating to the Company Property shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(1).

(7) Section 754 Adjustment. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company Property pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or 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 to a Member in complete liquidation of its Membership Interest, 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 accordance with their interests in the Company in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Members to which such distribution was made in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.

(D) Other Allocation Rules.

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

(2) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all items of Company income, gain, loss, deduction and any other allocations not otherwise provided for shall be divided among the Members in the same proportions as they share Profits and Losses, as the case may be, for the year.

(3) The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made pursuant to the provisions of this Exhibit 1 hereof and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Exhibit 1 hereof in reporting their shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

(4) Solely for purposes of determining a Member’s proportionate share of the “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Company relating to the Company Property within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Members’ interests in Company profits shall be equal to their Percentages of Company Interests.

(E) It is the intent of the Members that each Member’s distributive share of Profits and Losses (and items thereof) and credit shall be allocated in accordance with this Exhibit 1 to the fullest extent permitted by Section 704(b) of the Code.

3. Tax Allocations: Code Section 704(c).

(1) In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company by the Members shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset Value (computed in accordance with the definition herein).

(2) In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company Property is adjusted, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder.

(3) Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations to the Members shall be made by the Board of Managers in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 3 are solely for purposes of federal, state and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

4. Special Basis Adjustments

In the event of a Transfer of all or any part of the Member Interest of any Member for an amount in excess of the adjusted basis for such Membership Interest for federal income tax purposes, the Company shall elect, pursuant to Section 754 of the Code to adjust the basis of the Company Property. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, any adjustments made pursuant to Section 754 shall affect only the successor in interest to the transferring Member. Each successor in interest to the transferring Member will furnish the Company with all information necessary to give effect to such election and shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Company associated with any election applicable as to such Member. Unless otherwise specifically provided, neither adjustments to basis, nor adjustments to the taxable income of a Member as a result of this Section 4, shall affect its positive Capital Account.
