APPLICATION OF ORANGE AIR, LLC 

 FOR A CERTIFICATE OF 

PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY

 Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 41102, parts 201 and 204 of the Department’s 

Economic Regulations, subpart B of the Department’s Procedural 

Regulations, and the Department’s Streamlining Initiative in Docket OST2005-22228, Orange Air, LLC (“Orange Air”) respectfully applies for a 

certificate of public convenience and necessity authorizing Orange Air to 

engage in interstate charter air transportation of persons, property, and mail. 

Simultaneously with this Application, Orange Air has applied for a certificate 

authorizing it to engage in foreign charter air transportation of persons, 

property and mail. As Orange Air wishes to begin passenger operations as 

early as November 2011, it requests that the Department process this 

application expeditiously using written submissions and simplified, nonhearing procedures as contemplated by sections 302.15 and 302.207 of the 
Orange Air 

Certificate Application 

Page 2 

Procedural Regulations. In support of its application, Orange Air provides the 

information required by 14 C.F.R. §§ 201.4 and 204.3 in the Exhibits and 

Confidential Exhibits attached to this application and states as follows: 

 1. Experienced commercial aircraft financiers have teamed with 

experienced air carrier managers to form Orange Air, LLC. RWF Capital, 

LLC was formed by Hugo Reiter, Jorge L. Wolf, and Alberto Franco to take 

advantage of opportunities in the aviation field. Messrs. Reiter and Wolf, 

principals of AirTrust Capital Corp., currently manage and are equity 

holders in a fleet of more than 40 aircraft under lease to airlines throughout 

the world. They met Fred Credno, who founded Capital Airways, a contract 

air carrier operating under 14 C.F.R. Part 125, when AirTrust began leasing 

aircraft to Capital. As the operations of Capital Airways began winding 

down, RWF and Credno formed Orange Air to continue that relationship in 

the context of a new charter air carrier operating under Part 121.

 2. Orange Air intends to begin operations with a single, leased, MD-83 

aircraft. It will offer this aircraft for government contract flights and to public 

and private charterers for domestic and foreign operations. 

 3. With the financial support and aviation acumen of RWF Capital, 

Orange Air unquestionably has the strength to initiate and maintain the 

proposed charter operations without posing an undue risk to consumers or 

their funds. The principals of RWF Capital have on hand substantial funds 
Orange Air 

Certificate Application 

Page 3 

that are committed and immediately available to Orange Air to meet the 

Department’s financial fitness test. 

 4. Senior Orange Air management has the necessary business 

expertise and technical ability to offer and manage the proposed passenger 

transportation while complying effectively with relevant transportation laws. 

Led by Fred Credno, a 40+ year aviation veteran, the Orange Air team can 

draw on the management experience of its members at a variety of U.S. air 

carriers and aircraft operators and in the commercial aircraft setting. 

 5. Under 49 U.S.C. § 41102(b)(1), the Department may issue interstate 

authority if the applicant is a U.S. citizen and meets the Department’s fitness 

requirements. That is the case here. Moreover, grant of the requested 

certificate authority is in the public interest, as it will allow Orange Air to 

offer charterers new price and service options for domestic passenger 

transportation. 

 6. Further supporting information is provided in Exhibits 1-9 to this 

application, attached hereto, and in the accompanying Confidential Exhibits 

A-B. 

 WHEREFORE, Orange Air, LLC respectfully requests that the 

Department of Transportation process this application using expedited, 

simplified procedures, issue it a certificate of public convenience and 

necessity to engage in interstate charter air transportation of persons,

 As newly-formed companies, Orange Air and Holdings have no meaningful 

assets, and RWF has existed for only a few months in connection with Capital

Orange Air is attached as Exhibit 6. As these companies develop a financial

Exhibit 1 

Page 6 

(o) Pending investigations, actions, or formal complaints filed by DOT 

or the FAA regarding compliance with Federal aviation laws or 

orders, rules, regulations, or requirements under those laws. 

No pending investigations, enforcement actions or formal complaints have 

been filed against Orange Air or Holdings concerning compliance with 

Federal aviation laws. Further, to the carrier’s knowledge, none of the key 

personnel identified herein have any pending investigations, actions, or 

complaints to report under 14 C.F.R. § 204.3(o). 

(p) Other charges.

To Orange Air's knowledge, neither Orange Air, Holdings, nor any of the key 

personnel identified herein have experienced aircraft accidents or incidents 

that occurred in the preceding year or that remain under investigation by the 

FAA or the NTSB. 

(r) Brief narrative history of the applicant. 

The principals of RWF Capital and the Crednos were introduced when 

Capital Airways began leasing aircraft from AirTrust for Part 125 operations. 

As the operations of Capital Airways began winding down, Orange Air was 

formed to continue that relationship in the context of a new charter air 

carrier operating under Part 121. 

To date, Orange Air and Holdings have not conducted any business and are 

focusing on the certification of Orange Air as a charter air carrier. 

(s) Federal, State, and foreign transportation authority.

 
Orange Air 

Exhibit 1 

Page 7 

 On March 14, 2011, Orange Air filed a pre-application statement of intent 

with the FAA's South Florida Certificate Management Office describing its 

proposal to begin passenger charter operations. 

 

(t) Operating projections and a description of the service to be 

operated. 

 Orange Air proposes to begin passenger charter operations in November 2011 

with a single, leased, MD-83 aircraft. It will offer this aircraft for 

government contract flights and to public and private charterers for domestic 

and foreign operations. 

 Exhibit 8 includes forecast pre-operating expenses, forecast first-year 

expenses, and basic operating statistics for the proposed passenger operation, 

as well as forecast balance sheets for the first full year of operations. 

Projected revenue and a summary of the forecast are provided as Confidential

Exhibit B. Both exhibits were prepared by Karl Rothman, CPA. 

 

 Orange Air understands that charters of the type it will offer typically involve 

"ACMI" contracts, under which charterers will be directly responsible for fuel 

costs.1/ To summarize its forecast, Orange Air anticipates that its start-up 

costs related to passenger charter operations will be $1.44 million and that 

its first full year's operating expenses will total $5.93 million. 

 The capital required for Orange to conduct its initial services and to meet the 

Department's financial fitness requirement will be provided through RWF 

Capital, which has committed through an agreement among its members to 

make available a minimum of $3.03 million, matching the funding 

requirement demonstrated on the assumptions page of Exhibit 8. 

 

Orange Air does not anticipate a near-term net annual change in aircraft fuel 

consumption of 10 million gallons or more, and it has determined that 

adequate fuel is available for this service. To the extent the Department 

nonetheless concludes that grant of the requested authority would constitute 

a major regulatory action, Orange Air requests that the Department waive 

the requirement that an Energy Statement under 14 C.F.R. Part 313 be 

prepared. 

 

1/ Where, as here, a party other than the carrier is contractually responsible for 

certain operating expenses, the Department does not include those expenses 

in calculating financial reserve requirements. See, e.g., Dynamic Airways, 

LLC, Order 2010-9-17 at 5-6; Platinum Airlines, Inc., Order 2005-10-13 at 4; 

Primaris Airlines, Inc., Order 2004-7-8 at 2-3.

who has served as Manager of the Company shall be liable to the Company or any of its Members

or Managers for monetary damages for any act or omission in such Person’s capacity as a Member

or Manager of the Company, except to the extent that this limitation of liability exceeds that

permitted by the Act. No repeal or modification of this section or amendment to the Certificate of

Formation of the Company shall adversely affect the right or protection granted herein to a

Member or Manager with respect to any matter that occurred prior to such repeal, modification

or amendment.  

5.2 Indemnification.  The Company shall indemnify the Members and Managers of the

Company may advance expenses incurred by a Member or Manager upon (i) the approval of the

undertaking by such Member or Manager to reimburse the Company unless it shall ultimately be

determined that such Member or Manager is entitled to be indemnified by the Company against

such expenses.

to a Person who ceases to be a Member or Manager with respect to any matter that occurred

while such Person was a Member or Manager; (ii) inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs,

ARTICLE VI ‐ CONTRIBUTIONS TO CAPITAL;

CAPITAL ACCOUNTS

6.1 Initial Capital Contributions; Shares.    The nature and value of the initial Capital

Contributions of the Members are as set forth on Schedule I hereto, and shall be made upon

execution of this Agreement. The Company shall issue certificates to the Members to evidence the

ownership of their respective Membership Interests. The Company shall have authority to issue up

to and including 100 Membership Interests.  

6.2 Additional Capital Contributions.    The Managers shall notify the Members of the

need, if any, for additional Capital Contributions (beyond the initial Capital Contributions described

in Section 6.1 hereof). Any additional Capital Contributions from the Members to the Company
Execution Copy

12

must be approved by Required Member Approval.  If so approved, the Members shall be obligated

to make such additional Capital Contributions ratably in accordance with such Members’ then

existing Percentage Interest, within thirty (30) days after such approval or as otherwise

determined by the Members.

6.3 Failure to Make Additional Capital Contributions.   In the event any Member (the

“Defaulting Member”) fails to fulfill any commitment to contribute any additional Capital

Contributions under Section 6.2 and has not yet cured such default (a “Deficiency”), the other

contributing Member or Members (each a “Contributing Member” and collectively as

“Contributing Members”) may, but are not required to, fund the Deficiency on behalf of the

Defaulting Member as a “Contribution Loan” from such Contributing Member to such Defaulting

Member.  Each Contributing Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in

such Contribution Loan in proportion to its Percentage Interest.    Any such Contribution Loan shall

be secured by a pledge of the Membership Interests of the Defaulting Member, evidenced by a

written promissory note executed by the Defaulting Member, the principal amount of which shall

bear interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18.0%) per annum until repaid unless waived by the

Contributing Member, in its sole discretion and, except as otherwise payable hereunder, shall be

payable on the earlier of (i) demand of the Contributing Member(s) and (ii) in accordance with the

provisions of Section 7.2 hereof.  Such loan shall not limit or prevent the exercise by the Company

(through action taken by the Managers, excluding any Manager appointed by the Defaulting

Member) of any other legal or equitable remedies against the Defaulting Member for failure to

make such capital contribution, all of which remedies are expressly reserved.  The Contribution

Loan shall not be treated as a Capital Contribution by the Contributing Member or Members or

increase such Contributing Member’s or Members’ Percentage Interest.   

6.4 Offset.    Without limiting the remedies available to the Managers and the

Members, but in addition thereto, the Managers may elect to offset any distributions due and

payable to the Defaulting Member by the amount of or any portion of the Deficiency or any

Contribution Loan until such time as the Deficiency or the Contribution Loan, plus any interest

accrued on either or both, is paid in full.  Offsets shall be made first against Deficiencies (and

interest) that have not been made up by Contribution Loan, and then against Contribution

Loans (and interest) in the order in which they were made.

6.5   Indemnification by the Defaulting Member. The Defaulting Member shall

indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Contributing Members from and against any and all

claims, actions, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and

expenses) for funds advanced by the Contributing Member or Members on account of the

Defaulting Member.

6.6   Continuing Obligation.    Until such time as the Deficiency and/or Contribution

Loans(s), as the case may be, has been paid in full to the Company or the Contributing Member

or Members, as applicable, by a Non‐Contributing Member, whether by direct payment or by

offset as provided above, such Non‐Contributing Member shall remain liable to the Company or

the Contributing Member or Members for the unpaid portion of the Deficiency and/or the
Execution Copy

13

Contribution Loan(s), as the case may be, together with interest accrued on each at the

Contribution Loan Rate from the date of the Deficiency until the payment in full thereof.

6.7 Capital Accounts.

(a) The Company shall maintain separate “book” and “tax” Capital Accounts for

each Member pursuant to the principles of this Section 6.7 and Treasury Regulation

Section 1.704‐1(b). Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references to "Capital

Accounts" shall be references to "book" capital accounts and not "tax" capital accounts.

The initial Capital Account of each Member shall be equal to his or its Initial Capital

Contribution as set forth in Schedule I attached hereto.

(b) A Member’s Capital Account shall be increased by (i) the amount of

subsequent Capital Contributions to the Company by or on behalf of such Member under

Section 6.2(e) or otherwise, and (ii) the share of the Company’s Income allocated to such

Member pursuant to Section 7.1.   A Member’s Capital Account shall be decreased by (i)

the amount of cash distributed to the Member by the Company pursuant to Section 7.2 or

otherwise and (ii) the share of the Company’s Loss allocated to such Member pursuant to

Section 7.1.

(c) The provisions of this Section 6.7 and other portions of this Agreement

relating to maintenance of Capital Accounts are designed to comply with the requirements

of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704‐1(b). The Members intend that such provisions be

interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations. The

Managers may modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts are maintained if they

determine that such modification (i) is required or prudent to comply with the Treasury

Regulations and (ii) will not have a material effect on the amounts distributable to any

Member upon the dissolution of the Company.

6.8 Withdrawal or Reduction of Members’ Contributions to Capital.  No Member shall

have the right to withdraw all or any part of its Capital Contribution from the Company or to

receive any return on any portion of its Capital Contribution, except as may be otherwise

specifically provided in this Agreement. Under circumstances involving a return of any capital, no

Member shall have the right to require receipt of property other than cash.  

6.9 No Interest on Capital Contributions. No interest shall be paid on any capital

invested in the Company unless expressly provided herein to the contrary.

6.10 Liability of Members. No Member shall be liable for the debts, liabilities or

obligations of the Company beyond his or its respective Initial Capital Contribution and any

Additional Capital Contribution (including any Contribution Loan) required of such Member

pursuant to Sections 6.2 or 6.3 above; provided that all provisions in this Agreement requiring any

Member to make any Additional Capital Contributions are intended solely for the benefit of the

parties hereto and not for the benefit of any third party, and shall be enforceable only by the
Execution Copy

14

parties hereto and not by any Person not a party hereto.  Except as otherwise expressly provided

herein, no Members shall be required to contribute to the capital of, or to loan any funds to, the

Company.  

ARTICLE VII ‐ ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

7.1 Allocations.  

(a) General.  Subject to the following paragraph (b) and Exhibit A (Regulatory

Allocations) hereto, for purposes of determining the rights of the Members as among

themselves, Net Income or Net Loss, if any, for a Fiscal Year or other period, shall be

allocated to the Members in the same proportions as their respective Percentage Interests

as set forth on Schedule I hereto.

(b) Allocations Pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code.    In accordance with

Section 704(c) of the Code and the Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and

deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall,

solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of the

variation, if any, between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal

income tax purposes and its agreed fair market value at the time of its contribution to the

Company. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the

Managers in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this

Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 7.1(b) are solely for income tax purposes

and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s book

Capital Account or distributable share of net profits, net losses, other items, or

distributions pursuant to this Agreement.

7.2 Non‐Liquidating Monthly Distributions.  On the 15th calendar day of each and every

month, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the Managers shall cause the Company to distribute

to the Members, after payment of all operating expenses of the Company or the reservation or

withholding of such other amounts as reasonably determined by the Managers, all then remaining

Distributable Cash.   Distributions of Distributable Cash shall be made in the following order of

priority:

(a) First, to the Class A Holders, pro rata in accordance with their Preferred

Distribution entitlement, until the Class A Holders have received Distributions under this

Section 7.2(a) equal the annual Preferred Distribution amount (subject to the application of

the Preferred Distribution Cap);  

(b) Second, to the Contributing Members to repay the principal amount of

any Contribution Loans plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, until the aggregate

amount outstanding under all such Contribution Loans is paid in full;  
Execution Copy

15

(c) Third, to the Members pro rata based on their Capital Accounts in such

amounts sufficient to reduce each such Member’s Capital Account balance to zero; and

(d) Thereafter, to the Members in the same proportions as their respective

Percentage Interests as set forth on Schedule I hereto.

7.3 Tax Distributions.  Notwithstanding Section 7.2 above, to the extent the Company

has Distributable Cash which the Managers determine to be available for distribution to the

Members, the Company shall make cash distributions to each Member (provided any such

Member may elect not to receive any particular tax distribution, which election shall not

constitute a waiver with respect to any subsequent tax distribution) in an amount not to exceed

the amount determined by the Managers to be such Member’s federal tax liability (determined

using the highest tax rate applicable to an individual resident of the State of Florida) resulting

from the allocation of Profits and Losses pursuant to this Agreement.  Any distributions made to a

Member pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall be treated as an advance distribution under Section

7.2(c) and shall be offset against subsequent Distributions to which such Member is next entitled

pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.2(c).  Distributions pursuant to this Section 7.3, if any, shall

be made on a [quarterly] basis.

7.4 Liquidating Distributions.  All distributions after dissolution under Article X shall be

governed by Section 10.5.

7.5 Limitation Upon Distributions.    No distribution shall be declared and paid if

payment of such distribution would cause the Company to violate any limitation on distributions

provided in the Act.  

ARTICLE VIII ‐ BOOKS, ACCOUNTING AND TAX MATTERS

8.1 Books and Records. At all times during the continuation of the Company, the

Managers shall keep or cause to be kept true and full books of account and all other records

necessary for recording the Company's business and affairs and in compliance with all applicable

laws. The books of the Company shall be maintained on the cash basis (unless and until accrual

basis is required by federal tax law) and in accordance with Treasury Regulations §1.704‐1(b), et

seq., as amended. Such books of account shall be maintained at all times at the principal office of

the Company (or at such other place as the Managers may unanimously agree), and such books of

account and records shall be open to the inspection and examination of any Member or Manager

in person, or by his or its duly authorized representative, at all reasonable times.

prepared, including a balance sheet, statement of operations, and such supporting statements as

information required by federal law or state taxing and regulatory authorities. Such statements

and information shall be furnished to the Members as soon as possible after the close of the

Company's fiscal year, but in any event on or before April 1 next following the close of the

Company’s fiscal year.

to examine all books and records of the Company at reasonable times for purposes reasonably

Company funds for professional services and costs associated therewith. The Members and

Managers agree to cooperate with the tax matters partner and to do or refrain from doing any or

all things reasonably required by the tax matters partner to conduct such proceedings.

8.7 Tax Status, Elections.

the Code and the Treasury Regulations to adjust the basis of the Company assets as

provided by Section 743 or 734 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

respect to the determination of any item of Company Income or Loss, allocations to the Members,

or the Capital Account balances of the Members, an independent certified public accountant shall

be selected by action of the Managers and engaged by the Company, at the Company's expense,

whose computation of such items shall be binding upon all the Members.

8.9 Expenses. The Company shall reimburse each Member and Manager for all

reasonable expenses, if any, incurred in connection with the organization, management and

INTERESTS; PURCHASE RIGHTS

9.1 General.  

(a) Except as permitted under Section 9.2, a Member shall not at any time

Transfer all or any part the Member’s Membership Interest to any third person or entity.  

(b) Any Non‐Permitted Transfer (as defined in Article I) by a Member of all or

any part of its Membership Interest shall be null and void and of no effect, except that it

shall constitute an involuntary event of withdrawal as provided in Section 10.2 below.  

(c) The Company shall refuse to recognize the purported transferee in a Non‐

Permitted Transfer as a Member or as a transferee of any Interest, unless all the Members

agree to the contrary in writing.

(d) Any transferee of a Membership Interest pursuant to a Permitted Transfer

shall have only the rights, powers and privileges set out in Section 9.3 or otherwise

required by law.

(e) A Member shall not permit a Change of Control of such Member to

occur without the written consent of the other Member.  A “Change of Control” means,

with respect to a Member, the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) a merger,

consolidation or reorganization of such Member with or into any other Person, other than

any such transaction (or series of related transactions) following which the equity owners

of the Member immediately prior to such transaction (or series of related transactions)

own immediately following such transaction (or series of related transactions), solely in

respect of the equity interests held by them prior to such transaction, directly or indirectly

through another Person, greater than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the equity

securities of the surviving Person; provided, however, that a merger, consolidation or

reorganization effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of such

Member will not be deemed a Change of Control; (ii) a transaction (or series of related

transactions) in which a Person, or a group of related Persons, acquires either from such

Member or from the equity owners of such Member equity securities representing more

than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting power of such Member; or (iii) the

Transfer, lease or exclusive license, in a single transaction or series of related transactions,

by such Member of all or substantially all of the assets of such Member; provided,

however, that a sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition to one or more

wholly‐owned subsidiaries of such Member will not be deemed a Change of Control.

9.2 Permitted Transfers.  

(a) Transfers Approved by Members.  All or part of a Member’s Membership

Interest may be Transferred by it with the prior  written Required Member Approval, which
Execution Copy

18

approval may be granted or denied in the sole discretion of each Member.  However, such

transferee and the transferred Membership Interest shall be and remain subject to all of

the restrictions of this Article IX and the other provisions of this Agreement.

(b) Transfer to Related Party.  Notwithstanding any contrary provisions in this

Article IX, the Membership Interest owned by a Member who was an original Member as

of the date of this Agreement may be transferred to any Related Party (as defined below)

of such Member free and clear and without triggering any of the above‐provided

restrictions. No further Transfer of such Membership Interest shall be made by such

transferee, except (i) back to the Member who originally owned it, or (ii) to a Related Party

of such Member who originally owned it.  For purposes of this paragraph (b), with respect

to a transferring Member which is (i) an Entity, “Related Party” shall mean any other Entity

wholly or majority owned by such Member and (ii) an individual Person, “Related Party”

shall mean any parent, spouse, sibling or child of such Person.  

(c) Drag‐Along Right.

(i) In the event that Members holding Membership Interests

constituting a Percentage Interest of greater than 50% (collectively, the “Drag‐Along

Member”) desire to effect an Exit Event approved by the Managers, then the Drag Along

Member shall have the right (the “Drag‐Along Right”), upon 15 days written notice to the

remaining Members (the “Non‐Drag‐Along Member” or collectively the “Non‐Drag Along

Members”) to require that any or all such remaining Members join pro rata in such Exit

Event on substantially the same terms (including, without limitation, with respect to

representations, warranties and indemnification) as the Drag‐Along Member; provided,

however, that any representations and warranties relating specifically to any Member or

any specific securities or Membership Interests held by any Member shall be made only by

such Member and any indemnification provided by the Members shall be based on the

number of Membership Interests being sold by each Member, either on a several, not

joint, basis or solely with recourse to an escrow established for the benefit of the proposed

purchaser.    For purposes of this Section 9.2(c), participation on a “pro rata” basis shall

mean the applicable Person or Persons, other than the Drag‐Along Member, having the

obligation to sell a percentage of the Membership Interests owned by such Person or

Persons that is equal to the aggregate percentage of the Drag‐Along Member’s

Membership Interests being sold in the Exit Event.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the

contrary, to the extent the Drag‐Along Right is exercised in respect of a transaction that is

taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes (as reasonably determined by the Managers)

for consideration other than cash or marketable securities, the Drag‐Along Member shall

make arrangements such that the consideration received by the other Members (whether

from the purchaser in such transaction or otherwise, including without limitation, from the

Company by redemption or otherwise or from the Drag‐Along Member or any Affiliate

thereof by purchase or otherwise) shall include cash or the fair market value of marketable

securities in total equal to no less than the tax to be recognized for U.S. federal income tax

purposes (as reasonably determined by the Managers) in such transaction with respect to
Execution Copy

19

the relevant Membership Interests transferred in such transaction, except to the extent

such tax is recognized, in whole or in part, as a result of such remaining Member’s failure

to fully comply with this Agreement; provided, that the amount of such cash or fair market

value of marketable securities shall reduce the amount of consideration other than cash or

marketable securities otherwise to be received by any Non‐Drag‐Along Member (as

reasonably determined by the Managers); provided, further, that the foregoing

requirement may be waived by the Non‐Drag‐Along Members holding a majority of the

Membership Interests held by such Members.

  

(ii) For purposes of this Section 9.2(c), the obligation of each Non‐Drag‐

Along Member to “join” the Drag‐Along Member in an Exit Event shall include, without

limitation, (i) voting the Membership Interests of such Non‐Drag‐Along Member in favor of

such Exit Event, (ii) waiving any appraisal or similar rights in respect of such transaction,

(iii) causing such Non‐ Drag‐Along Member’s Manager designee(s), if any, to approve such

Exit Event, and (iv) executing and delivering any agreements and documents reasonably

necessary in connection with such Exit Event, and providing any other cooperation as the

Drag‐Along Member may reasonably request.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any transaction

costs (including, without limitation, transfer taxes and legal, accounting and investment

banking fees incurred by Drag‐Along Member) shall, in connection with an Exit Event or

any other sale of Membership Interests and/or capital stock of the Drag‐Along Member, be

borne by the Company in the event of a merger, consolidation or sale of assets of the

Company or any Company Subsidiary, or otherwise be borne by the Non‐  Drag‐Along

Members, on the one hand, and the Drag‐Along Member and its respective Affiliates, on

the other hand, pro rata based on the number of Membership Interests being sold by such

Non‐ Drag‐Along Member, on the one hand, and the Drag‐Along Member, on the other

hand, in such transaction.

  

(d) Tag‐Along Right. In the event that a Member (together with its Affiliates)

(any such Person, the “Initiating Seller”), proposes to sell Membership Interests other than

to an Affiliate of the Initiating Seller, then the other Members shall have the right (the

“Tag‐Along Right”), exercisable by written notice to the Initiating Seller, to participate pro

rata in such sale on substantially the same terms (including, without limitation, with

respect to representations, warranties and indemnification) as such Initiating Seller;

provided, however, that any representations and warranties relating specifically to any

Member or any specific securities or Membership Interests held by such Member shall only

be made by such Member and any indemnification provided by the Members shall be

based on the number of Membership Interests being sold by each such Member, either on

a several, not joint, basis or solely with recourse to an escrow established for the benefit of

the proposed purchaser.  For purposes of this Section 9.2(d), participation on a “pro rata”

basis shall mean the applicable Person or Persons having the ability to sell a percentage of

their Membership Interests that is equal to the percentage of the Initiating Seller’s

Membership Interests to be sold.  The Managers shall have the authority to determine the
Execution Copy

20

amounts that would ultimately be payable to each participating Member based upon its

good faith interpretation and estimation of what amounts would have been payable to

such Members had the Company been liquidated and distributions made to the Members

in accordance with Article X.  In the absence of a showing of bad faith or manifest error, all

determinations hereunder by the Managers shall be binding and conclusive on the

Company and the Members.

9.3 Rights of Transferee.  

(a) The term “Membership Interest” as used in this Section and in Section 9.2

with respect to Permitted Transfers, shall mean (except in the case of a Permitted Transfer

to a transferee described in Section 9.2(b)) only the transferring Member’s Capital Account

balance and its share of the distributions and allocations of and from the Company, and

shall not include any rights to participate in the management of the Company or any voting

rights with respect thereto (“Subject Rights”).  Such Subject Rights may only be exercised

by a transferee if the transferee is admitted as a Member as provided in Section 3.2(a).  

(b) The limitations of paragraph (a) of this Section shall not apply to a

Permitted Transfer to a transferee described in paragraph (b) of Section 9.2.  

(c) Whenever a transferee holds a transferred Membership Interest and has

not been admitted as a Member, his or its Percentage Interest shall be excluded for all

purposes under this Agreement and the Act (except for distributions, allocations, and as

otherwise expressly required under the Act) in calculating the total outstanding Percentage

Interests or any portion or fraction thereof.

9.4 Rights of Transferor. A Member who has transferred his or its entire Membership

Interest shall cease to be a Member as of the effective date of such Transfer for all purposes. A

Member who has transferred less than his or its entire Membership Interest shall cease to be a

Member as of the effective date of such Transfer for all purposes with respect to the portion of the

Membership Interest transferred, but shall continue to be a Member (with its Percentage Interest

decreased accordingly) as to the portion of his or its Membership Interest not Transferred.

9.5 Pledges.    Subject to the provisions of Section 9.6 below, the provisions of this

Article IX shall not apply to the pledge of all or part of a Membership Interest as collateral for a

loan (including any Contribution Loan), but shall apply to the sale or other Transfer of such

Membership Interest pursuant to any such pledge.

9.6 Involuntary Transfers, Liens and Related Encumbrances.  In the event that (i) any

third party seeks to obtain or is granted or otherwise obtains a lien, charging order or other

encumbrance on Credno’s Membership Interest or in any distribution right of Credno or any

Affiliate thereof pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) a Transfer (other than a Permitted Transfer)

occurs with respect to Credno, then RWF Capital and JO Holdings shall have the right (the “Call

Right”), exercisable by RWF Capital and JO Holdings in their sole discretion by written notice to
Execution Copy

21

Credno (the “Call Right Notice”), to purchase and acquire all of Credno’s Membership Interest in

the Company at a price equal to 50% of the difference between (a) the net book value of Credno’s

Membership Interests (determined in good faith by the Managers ) and (b) the sum of (i) the then

unpaid Preferred Distribution Cap and (ii) the principal amount of any then outstanding

Contribution Loans made to Credno plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the “Call Right

Purchase Price”).  The Credno Purchase Price shall be payable by the RWF Member’s issuance of

an unsecured promissory note (the “Contribution Loan Note”) made payable to Credno having a

term of not less than five (5) years and accruing interest on the unpaid balance thereof at the then

applicable Federal Rate.  Absent a default under the Contribution Loan Note, the principal amount

thereof and all interest accrued thereon shall be payable from distributions made by the Company.  

The closing of any transaction subject of this Section 9.6 shall occur within three (3) business days

of the issuance of the Call Right Notice.  The provisions of this Section 9.6 and the rights granted to

RWF Capital and JO Holdings hereunder shall be applicable to any Transferee of Credno pursuant

to any Permitted Transfer.

ARTICLE X ‐ DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION

10.1 Voluntary Withdrawal. No Member shall have the right at any time to voluntarily

retire or withdraw from the Company or withdraw any amount out of his or its Capital Account.

10.2 Involuntary Withdrawal.  

(a) Unless the other Members unanimously agree to the contrary, a Member

shall be considered to have withdrawn as a Member from the Company upon the

happening of any of the following events with respect to that Member:

(i)   its removal as a Member in accordance with any provision

contained in this Agreement;

(ii)   its dissolution if an Entity; or

(iii)   the Transfer or attempted Transfer by it of all or any part of its

Membership Interest not in accordance with the conditions and restrictions

imposed under Article IX of this Agreement.

(b) Upon the involuntary withdrawal of any Member under paragraph (a), the

withdrawing Member shall thereafter have only the rights of a transferee as set forth in

Section 9.3 above; and the withdrawing Member shall not be entitled to any distribution of

capital from the Company by reason of such withdrawal, except as expressly provided

otherwise elsewhere in this Agreement.

(c) The involuntary withdrawal of any Member under paragraph (a) shall not

result in the dissolution of the Company, unless the other Members (excluding the

withdrawing Member) unanimously consent in writing to dissolution of the Company.
Execution Copy

22

10.3 Dissolution.

(a) The Company shall be dissolved upon the first of the following to occur:

the Certificate of Formation to establish a new dissolution date;

(ii)   On the effective date set forth in any written resolution to dissolve

the Company signed by the Members constituting the Required Member Approval;

(iii)   Upon an election to dissolve the Company made in accordance with

a certificate for administrative dissolution under the Act.

(b) Upon dissolution of the Company, the business and affairs of the Company

shall be wound up, and the assets of the Company shall be liquidated under this Article X.

(c) Dissolution of the Company shall be effective as of the day on which the

event occurs giving rise to the dissolution, but the Company shall not terminate until there

has been a winding up of the Company’s business and affairs, and the assets of the

Company have been distributed as provided in Section 10.5.

(d) Upon dissolution of the Company, the Managers may cause any part or all

of the assets of the Company to be sold in such manner as they shall determine in an effort

to obtain the best prices for such assets; provided, however, that the Managers may

distribute assets of the Company in kind to the Members to the extent practicable as

provided in Section 10.6.

10.4 Articles of Dissolution.  Upon the dissolution and commencement of the winding up

of the Company, the Managers shall cause Articles of Dissolution to be executed on behalf of the

Company and filed with the Secretary of State. The Members agree to execute, acknowledge and

deliver to the Managers such Articles of Dissolution and any and all other instruments necessary or

appropriate to reflect the dissolution of the Company.  
Execution Copy

assets of the Company shall be paid in the following priority:

(a) First, to creditors, in the order of priority as provided by law; then

Distribution entitlement, until each has received aggregate Distributions under this Section

10.5 (b) and 7.2(a) hereto, equal to its then aggregate unpaid Preferred Distribution

amount; then

(c) Third, to Members who have made Contribution Loans until all such

Contribution Loans are paid in‐full; then

   

(d) Fourth, to the Members (and any transferee pursuant to a Permitted

Transfer) in proportion to their then respective Capital Accounts until the balance of such

Capital Accounts is zero; then

(e) Finally, to the Members (and any transferee pursuant to a Permitted

Transfer) in proportion to their then respective Percentage Interests.

10.6 Distributions in Kind. If any assets of the Company are distributed in kind, unless

the Members unanimously agree otherwise such assets shall be distributed to the Members

entitled thereto as tenants‐in‐common in the same proportions as the Members would have been

entitled to cash distributions if such property had been sold for cash and the net proceeds thereof

distributed to the Members.

ARTICLE XI – MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

11.1 Competing Business.  Except as may be provided in any employment consulting or

other agreement between the Company and a Member, the Members and the Managers shall not

be prohibited or restricted in any way from investing in or conducting, either directly or indirectly,

other businesses of any nature whatsoever, including the ownership and operation of businesses

or properties similar to and/or in the same geographical area as those held by the Company; and

such shall not give rise to any claim for an accounting by any Member or the Company or any right

to claim any interest in such business or the profits therefrom.  

11.2   Member Representations and Agreements.  Each Member hereby represents and

warrants to the Company and to each other that: (i) the Membership Interest of such Member is

acquired for investment purposes only, for the Member’s own account, and not with a view to or

in connection with any distribution, offer, resale or other disposition not in compliance with the

Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder and applicable state

securities laws; (ii) such Member is aware that this Agreement provides restrictions on the ability

Exhibit A

REGULATORY ALLOCATIONS

This Exhibit contains special rules for the allocation of items of Company income, gain, loss and

deduction that override the basic allocations of profits and losses in Section 7.1 to the extent

necessary to cause the overall allocations of items of Company income, gain, loss and deduction to

have “substantial economic effect” pursuant to Treasury Regulations § 1.704‐1(b). Subsection (a)

below contains special technical definitions. Subsections (b) through (h) contain the Regulatory

Allocations themselves. Subsections (h), (i) and (j) are special rules applicable in applying the

Regulatory Allocations.  

(a) Definitions Applicable to Regulatory Allocations. For purposes of the Agreement,

the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:

(1) “Company Minimum Gain” has the meaning of “partnership minimum gain”

set forth in Treasury Regulations § 1.704‐2(d), and is generally the aggregate gain the

Company would realize if it disposed of its property subject to Nonrecourse Liabilities in full

satisfaction of each such liability, with such other modifications as provided in Treasury

Regulations § 1.704‐2(d). In the case of Nonrecourse Liabilities for which the creditor’s

recourse is not limited to particular assets of the Company, until such time as there is

regulatory guidance on the determination of minimum gain with respect to such liabilities,

all such liabilities of the Company shall be treated as a single liability and allocated to the

Company’s assets using any reasonable basis selected by the Managers.

(2) “Member Nonrecourse Deductions” shall mean losses, deductions or Code

§ 705(a)(2)(B) expenditures attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt under the general

principles applicable to “partner nonrecourse deductions” set forth in Treasury Regulations

§ 1.704‐21(i)(2).

(3) “Member Nonrecourse Debt” means any Company liability with respect to

which one or more but not all of the Members or related persons to one or more but not

all of the Members bears the economic risk of loss within the meaning of Treasury

Regulations § 1.752‐2 as a guarantor, lender or otherwise.

(4) “Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain” shall mean the minimum gain

attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt as determined pursuant to Treasury

Regulations § 1.704‐2(i)(3). In the case of Member Nonrecourse Debt for which the

creditor’s recourse against the Company is not limited to particular assets of the Company,

until such time as there is regulatory guidance on the determination of minimum gain with

respect to such liabilities, all such liabilities of the Company shall be treated as a single

liability and allocated to the Company’s assets using any reasonable basis selected by the

Managers.
Execution Copy

30

(5) “Nonrecourse Deductions” shall mean losses, deductions, or Code §

705(a)(2)(B) expenditures attributable to Nonrecourse Liabilities (see Treasury Regulations

§ 1.704‐2(b)(1)). The amount of Nonrecourse Deductions for a fiscal year shall be

determined pursuant to Treasury Regulations § 1.704‐2(c), and shall generally equal the

net increase, if any, in the amount of Company Minimum Gain for that taxable year,

determined generally according to the provisions of Treasury Regulations § 1.704‐2(d),

reduced (but not below zero) by the aggregate distributions during the year of proceeds of

Nonrecourse Liabilities that are allocable to an increase in Company Minimum Gain, with

such other modifications as provided in Treasury Regulations § 1.704‐2(c).

(6) “Nonrecourse Liability” means any Company liability (or portion thereof) for

which no Member bears the economic risk of loss under Treasury Regulations § 1.752‐2.

(7) “Regulatory Allocations” shall mean allocations of Nonrecourse Deductions

provided in Paragraph (b) below, allocations of Member Nonrecourse Deductions provided

in Paragraph (c) below, the minimum gain chargeback provided in Paragraph (d) below, the

member nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback provided in Paragraph (e) below, the

qualified income offset provided in Paragraph (f) below, the gross income allocation

provided in Paragraph (g) below, and the curative allocations provided in Paragraph (h)

below.

(b) Nonrecourse Deductions. All Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be

allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective interests in net profit and loss as

provided in Section 7.1 without reference to these Regulatory Allocations.

(c) Member Nonrecourse Deductions. All Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any

fiscal year shall be allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss under Treasury

Regulations § 1.752‐2 with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member

Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable.

(d) Minimum Gain Chargeback. If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain

for a fiscal year, each Member shall be 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 such net

decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations §

1.704‐2(g)(2) and the definition of Company Minimum Gain set forth above. This provision is

intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulations §

1.704‐2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(e) Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain Chargeback. If there is a net decrease in

Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt for any

fiscal year, each Member who has a share of the Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain

attributable to such Member Nonrecourse debt as of the beginning of the fiscal year, determined

in accordance with Treasury Regulations § 1.704‐2(i)(5), shall be allocated items of Company

income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such
Execution Copy

31

Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to

such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations §§ 1.704‐

2(i)(4) and (5) and the definition of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain set forth above.

This Paragraph is intended to comply with the member nonrecourse debt minimum gain

chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulations § 1.704‐2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted

consistently therewith.

(f) Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any

adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Treasury Regulations

§§ 1.704‐1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4),(5), or (6), items of Company Income (consisting of a pro rata portion of

each item of Company Income, including gross income for such year) shall be allocated as quickly

as possible to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent

required by the Treasury Regulations, any deficit in the balance in such Member’s Capital Account.

This Paragraph (f) is intended to constitute a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of

§ 1.704‐1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(h) Rules for Applying the Regulatory Allocations. These Regulatory Allocations shall be

interpreted and applied in light of the purpose set forth in the first sentence of this Exhibit.

However, to the greatest extent possible consistent with that purpose, the Managers shall take the

Regulatory Allocations into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss or deduction

among the Members such that the total net amounts allocated to each Member are the same as

they would have been under Section 7.1 of the Operating Agreement had the Regulatory

Allocations not been made. The Regulatory Allocations shall be applied in whatever order the

Managers reasonably determine will minimize the deviation from the allocation provisions set

forth in Section 7.1 of the Operating Agreement that might otherwise result from the application

of the Regulatory Allocations.

(i) Waiver of Minimum Gain Chargeback Provision.  If the Managers determine that

(1) either of the two minimum gain chargeback provisions contained in this Exhibit would cause a

distortion in the economic arrangement among the Members, (2) it is not expected that the

Company will have sufficient other items of income and gain to correct that distortion, and (3) the

Members have made capital contributions or received net income allocations that have restored

any previous Nonrecourse Deductions or Member Nonrecourse Deductions, the Managers shall

have the authority, but not the obligation, to request (after notice to all the Members) that the

Internal Revenue Service waive the minimum gain chargeback or member nonrecourse debt

minimum gain chargeback requirements pursuant to Treasury Regulations §§ 1.704‐2(f)(4) and

1.704‐2(i)(4).

(j) Code Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax

basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code § 734(b) or Code § 743(b) is required, pursuant to

Treasury Regulations § 1.704‐1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital

Accounts, 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 a manner consistent
Execution Copy

32

with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such

Section of the Regulations.
