DISTRIBUTIONS OF INCOME 
  
 5.1 Distributions of Net Income. Upon the determination of the Manager, the Company may distribute (at the times determined by the Manager) so much
of the Company’s Net Income as is not, in the opinion of the Manager, necessary for the conduct of the Company’s business, after setting aside such amounts as the Manager deems necessary to create adequate reserves for future capital or
operating needs of the Company; provided, that the Company shall use its best efforts to make cash distributions to the Members each year to enable them to pay any income taxes attributable to their distributive shares of Profits, net of
their distributive shares of Losses not previously offset by other allocations of Profits. Distributions shall first be allocated to funds advanced to the Company by the Members as a lender to the extent of such advances including interest thereon,
if any, and then to the Members, pro rata, in proportion to their Interest Ownership Percentage. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no distribution shall be made that would render the Company insolvent or which is
prohibited by the Act.

 6.4 Return of Distributions of Capital. 
  
 A Member may, under certain circumstances, be required by law to return to the Company, for the benefit of the Company’s creditors, amounts
previously distributed. The Members shall be obligated by this Agreement to pay those distributions to or for the account of 

  

 - 9 - 







 
the Company or any creditor of the Company. Any payment returned to the Company by a Member or made directly by a Member to a creditor of the Company shall

 ARTICLE 7

  
 TRANSFER OF MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS 

 
 7.1 Transferees.

rights and be subject to the same obligations as, its predecessor as a Member hereunder.
