taxable year bears to such beginning adjusted basis; provided, however, that if the adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes of an asset at the beginning of such taxable year is zero, Depreciation shall be determined with reference to
such beginning Gross Asset Value using any reasonable method selected by the Members.

writing to the other Member that Liquidation Value be determined, by an independent Appraiser selected by both Members. Such Appraiser shall submit to the Members its appraisal within thirty (30) days after selection, which shall constitute the
final Liquidation Value. If the Members are unable to agree upon an Appraiser within ten (10) days following the expiration of such thirty (30)-day period, the Liquidation Value shall be determined by two independent Appraisers, one selected by
each Member; provided, that if a Member fails to appoint an Appraiser within ten (10) days following the expiration of such ten (10)-day period, Liquidation Value shall be determined by the Appraiser selected by the other Member. Each

on a settlement of the discrepancy within ten (10) days after receipt of the appraisal, then a third Appraiser mutually selected by the Members (or if they cannot so select then selected by the first two Appraisers), shall be afforded access to
the first two appraisals. The third Appraiser shall select one of the appraisals of the first two Appraisers, which selection shall constitute a final determination of Liquidation Value and shall be binding upon all Members. If a discrepancy between
appraisals of the first two Appraisers is less than 10% of the higher appraisal, then the Liquidation Value of the Interest shall be the average of the two appraisals.

respective Operating 

  

 -9- 








 
Percentages at such times and shall be made in such amounts as a majority of the Board of Managers shall determine within ten (10) business days of the
end of each month, subject to the following requirements: 
 (i) The Board of Managers shall use its best efforts to cause the
Company to distribute to the Members an amount of Cash Flow as shall be sufficient to enable the Members to fund their respective federal and state income tax liabilities on a quarterly basis. 
 (ii) All distributions shall be made from Profits and capital of the Company and shall be allocated to each of the Members in accordance
with their respective Operating Percentages in the Company, as set forth in Exhibit A. 
 4.2. Regulatory Allocations.

 (a) Qualified Income Offset. No Member shall be allocated Losses or deductions if the allocation causes a Member to have an Adjusted
Capital Account Deficit. If a Member receives (i) an allocation of Loss or deduction (or item thereof) or (ii) any distribution which causes the Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any taxable year, then all
items of income and gain of the Company (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Company income, including gross income and gain) for that taxable year shall be allocated to that Member before any other allocation is made of Company items
for that taxable year, in the amount and in proportions required to eliminate the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as quickly as possible. This Section 4.2(a) is intended to comply with, and shall be interpreted consistently with, the
“qualified income offset” provisions of the Regulations promulgated under section 704(b) of the Code. 
 (b) Company
Minimum Gain. Except as set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(f)(2), notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if, during any taxable year, there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, each Member, prior to any other
allocation pursuant to this Article IV, shall be specially allocated items of gross income and gain for such taxable year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in an amount equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Company
Minimum Gain, computed in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(g). Allocations of gross income and gain pursuant to this Section 4.2(b) shall be made first from gain recognized from the disposition of Company assets subject to
nonrecourse liabilities (within the meaning of the Regulations promulgated under section 752 of the Code), to the extent of the Company Minimum Gain attributable to those assets, and thereafter, from a pro rata portion of the Company’s
other items of income and gain for the taxable year. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treas. Reg. §§ 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). It is the intent of the parties hereto that any allocation
pursuant to this Section 4.2(b) shall constitute a “minimum gain chargeback” under Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. 
 (c) Member Minimum Gain. Except as otherwise provided in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(4), notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt during any taxable year, each Member who has a share of the Member Nonrecourse Debt

Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated
items of income and gain for such taxable year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt,
determined in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be determined in accordance with Treas. Reg. §§ 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 4.2(c) is
intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. 
 (d) Contributed Property. 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 any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset Value. In the event
the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset 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 section 704(c) of the Code and the Regulations thereunder. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations (including but not limited to such simplifying conventions
as appropriate) shall be made by the Members in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 4.2(d) 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 Person’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. A majority of the Members may amend the
provisions of this Section 4.2(d) to conform with any amendments to the Regulations or with any Regulations promulgated under section 704(c) of the Code, provided that such amendments shall not have a material adverse effect on the amounts
distributable to any Member pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (e) Section 754 Adjustment. To the extent an adjustment to the tax
basis of any Company asset pursuant to section 734(b) or section 743(b) of the Code is required, pursuant to Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of the
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 basis) and the gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in a manner
consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to that Section of the Regulations. 
 (f)
Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable year 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 Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(1). 
 (g) Member Loan Nonrecourse Deductions. Any
Member Loan Nonrecourse Deduction for any taxable year or other period shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears the risk of loss with respect to the loan to which the Member Loan Nonrecourse Deduction is attributable in accordance with
Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(b).

 (h) Unrealized Receivables. If a Member’s Interest is reduced (provided the reduction does
not result in a complete termination of the Member’s Interest), the Member’s share of the Company’s “unrealized receivables” and “substantially appreciated inventory” (within the meaning of section 751 of the
Code) shall not be reduced, so that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, that portion of the Profit otherwise allocable upon a liquidation or dissolution of the Company pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof which is
taxable as ordinary income (recaptured) for federal income tax purposes shall, to the extent possible without increasing the total gain to the Company or to any Member, be specially allocated among the Members in proportion to the deductions (or
basis reductions treated as deductions) giving rise to such recapture. Any questions as to the aforesaid allocation of ordinary income (recapture), to the extent such questions cannot be resolved in the manner specified above, shall be resolved by
the Members. 
 (i) Withholding. All amounts required to be withheld pursuant to section 1446 of the Code or any other provision
of federal, state or local tax law shall be treated as amounts actually distributed to the affected Members for all purposes under this Agreement. 
 4.3. Liquidation and Dissolution. 
 (a) If the Company is liquidated, the assets of the Company shall be distributed to the
Members in accordance with the balances in their respective Positive Capital Accounts, after taking into account the allocations of Profit or Loss, if any. 
 (b) No Member shall be obligated to restore a Negative Capital Account. 
 4.4. Valuation of Distributions
in Kind. If any assets of the Company are distributed in kind to the Members, those assets shall be valued on the basis of their fair market value, and any Member entitled to any interest in those assets shall receive that interest as a
tenant-in-common with all other Members so entitled. Unless the Members otherwise agree, the fair market value of such assets shall be determined by an independent Appraiser selected by the Members. The Profit or Loss for each unsold asset shall be
determined as if the asset had been sold at its fair market value, and the Profit or Loss shall be allocated as provided in Section 4.1 and shall be properly credited or charged to the Capital Accounts of the Members prior to the distribution
of the assets in liquidation pursuant to Section 4.3. 
 4.5 Record Holders. All Profit and Loss shall be allocated, and all
distributions shall be made, to the Persons shown on the records of the Company who are Members as of the last day of the taxable year for which the allocation or distribution is to be made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Company’s
taxable year is separated into segments, if there is a Transfer or an Involuntary Withdrawal during the taxable year, the Profit and Loss shall be allocated between the original Member and the successor on the basis of the number of days each was a
Member during the taxable year. 
 4.6 Limitation on Distribution. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the Company shall not make a distribution to any Member on account of its Interest in the Company if such distribution would violate any applicable law.
