Company, agree in writing (i) to continue the Company and (ii) to the admission
of the personal representative or its nominee or designee, as the case may be,

as are necessary to wind up its affairs (including the sale of the assets of the
Company in an orderly manner), and the assets of the Company shall be applied in
the manner, and in the order of priority, set forth in Section 18-804 of the
Act.

enforceable by any creditor of the Company or by any creditor of the Member or a

shall not be construed in any respect to be a contract in whole or in part for
the benefit of any third Person (except as provided in Section 29).

 

Section 27. Severability of Provisions.

 

Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered severable and if for any
reason any provision or provisions herein are determined to be invalid,
unenforceable or illegal under any existing or future law, such invalidity,
unenforceability or illegality shall not impair the operation of or affect those
portions of this Agreement which are valid, enforceable and legal.
