without limitation cash from the sale of any or all of the Company property)
less (i) the amount necessary for payment of all costs, expenses, obligations
and liabilities of the Company then due (including any then due advances to the
Company by the Members) and (ii) the amount deemed necessary by the Manager, in
the exercise of its reasonable discretion, for the operation of the Company and
to establish a reserve for the payment of foreseen or unforeseen costs,

attached Exhibit "A".

            3.1.3 The "Accounting Period" of the Company will be each period

        3.7 Sharing Between Transferor and Transferee. If a Membership Interest
is transferred, the income, gains, losses and deductions allocable to the
Membership Interest transferred for the Accounting Period during which the
transfer occurred will be allocated between the transferor and transferee of the
Membership Interest in proportion to the time during the Accounting Period that
the Membership Interest was owned by the transferor and transferee. Credits
shall be allocated to the Member who owned the Membership Interest at the time
that the property giving rise to the credit was placed in service. Each
transferee will be credited with the Capital Account of the transferee's
transferor. If a transferor transfers less than all of the transferor's
Membership Interest, the Capital Account will be allocated in proportion to the
fraction of the Membership Interest respectively transferred and retained.

            5.3.1 To act in contravention of this Agreement.

shall have any right, by virtue of this Agreement, to share or participate in
such other investments or activities of the Manager or to the income or proceeds
derived therefrom. The Manager shall not incur any liability to the Company or
to any of the Members as a result of engaging in any other business or venture.

        5.6 Affiliates. The Manager may, in the Manager's absolute discretion,
employ an Affiliate in any capacity on a basis comparable to that which could be



                                      -7-
<PAGE>   9

arranged with unaffiliated third parties for comparable service. Any Affiliate
employed by the Company shall have the absolute right (but not the obligation)
to contract with independent third parties in connection with the performance of
the foregoing service. For purposes of this Agreement, an "Affiliate" shall
include any and all firms and entities, including, without limitation,
corporations, partnerships, joint ventures, trusts, limited liability companies
and associations, which are directly or indirectly owned or controlled, in whole
or in part, by or in common with, any Member or Members or Manager and/or any of
such entities or any combination of any such persons or entities.

        5.7 Removal.

            5.7.1 The "removal" of the Manager shall automatically take place in
the event that any of the following occurs:

                  5.7.1.1 The Manager becoming bankrupt. The Manager shall be

proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended or superseded
from time to time; (c) the making by the Manager of a general assignment for the

the Manager generally to pay its debts as the debts become due within the
meaning of Section 303(h)(1) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, as determined
by the Bankruptcy Court, or the admission in writing of its inability to pay its
debts as they become due.

                  5.7.1.2 The Manager is dissolved.

            5.7.2 The removal of a Manager shall not affect such Manager's
rights as a Member and shall not constitute a withdrawal of a Member.

of Manager of the Company, the vacancy may be filled by the affirmative vote of
a Majority-in-Interest of the Members.

                               MEETINGS OF MEMBERS

        6.1 Meetings. Any Member may call a meeting at any time on not less than
five (5) business days' prior written notice to all Members. Any notice for a
meeting must identify the nature of the business to be discussed at such
meeting.

        6.2 Designees. Any Member may at any time, and from time to time, by
written notice to the other Members, designate a person ("Designee") to act on
its behalf at any meeting of the Members. Such Designee shall have all of the
voting rights of such Member. A Member who has named a Designee may subsequently
revoke such designation and may, at the same time or subsequently, name a
replacement Designee.

        6.3 Meeting of all Members. If all of the Members shall meet at any time
and place, either within or outside of the State of Texas and consent to the
holding of a meeting at such time and place, such meeting shall be valid without
call or notice, and at such meeting lawful action may be taken.

        6.4 Record Date. For the purpose of determining Members entitled to
notice of or to vote at any meeting of Members or any adjournment, or Members
entitled to receive payment of any distribution, or in order to make a
determination of Members for any other purpose, the date on which notice of the
meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolution declaring such
distribution is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such
determination of Members. When a determination of Members entitled to vote at
any meeting of Members has been made as provided in this Paragraph 6.4, such
determination shall apply to any adjournment.

        6.5 Quorum. A Majority-In-Interest of the Members, represented in person
or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of Members. In the absence
of a quorum at any such meeting, a majority of the Membership Percentages so
represented may adjourn the meeting from time to time for a period not to exceed
60 days without further notice. However, if the adjournment is for more than 60
days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned
meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each Member of
record entitled to vote at the meeting. At such adjourned meeting at which a
quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which
might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed. The Members
present at a duly organized meeting may continue to transact business until
adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal during such meeting of that number
of Membership Percentages whose absence would cause less than a quorum.

        6.6 Manner of Acting. If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of
Majority-in-Interest of the Members (whether or not all are present) shall be
the act of



                                      -9-
<PAGE>   11

the Members, unless the vote of a greater proportion or number is otherwise
required by the Act, by the Articles of Organization, or by this Agreement.
Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or required under
applicable law, Members who have an interest (economic or otherwise) in the
outcome of any particular matter upon which the Members are being asked to vote
or consent may vote or consent upon any such matter and their Membership
Percentage, vote or consent, as the case may be, shall be counted in the
determination of whether the requisite matter was approved by the Members.

        6.7 Proxies. At all meetings of Members, a Member may vote in person or
by proxy executed in writing by the Member or by a duly authorized
attorney-in-fact. Such proxy shall be filed with the Members of the Company
before or at the time of the meeting. No proxy shall be valid after eleven
months from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy.

        6.8 Action by Members Without a Meeting. Action required or permitted to
be taken at a meeting of Members may be taken without a meeting if the action is
evidenced by one or more written consents signed by all Members.

        6.9 Waiver of Notice. When any notice is required to be given to any
Member, a waiver in writing signed by the person entitled to such notice,
whether before, at, or after the time stated in such notice shall be equivalent
to the giving of such notice.

which approval may be withheld in the Manager's absolute discretion, and (iii)
Transfers to persons pursuant to Paragraph 7.4 (entitled "Right of First
Refusal") (collectively referred to as "Permitted Transfers"); provided,
however, that (a) all such Permitted Transfers must be made in full compliance
with all requirements contained in this Agreement and (b) no Member may transfer
all or any part of such Member's Membership Interest to a minor or an
incompetent unless the Transfer is to a trust, guardianship, or other legal
entity formed for the benefit of the incapacitated party. Any Transfer of a
Membership Interest which does not comply with the provisions of this Agreement
shall be invalid and shall not vest any interest in the transferee.

            7.2.2 Admission. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a
person shall become a Member only upon (i) the approval of the Manager, which
approval may be withheld in the Manager's absolute discretion, and (ii) the
person executing any and all documents reasonably requested by the Manager,
including without limitation an agreement by which such person shall be bound by
all of the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a
Member transfers a Membership Interest to an Associate or a Membership Interest
is transferred to a successor upon the death of a Member, the Associate or the
successor shall be entitled to Admission without the approval of the Manager,
provided that all other requirements contained in this Agreement must be
complied with prior to such Admission.

            7.2.3 Admission Date. Any Admission shall be deemed to occur
effective either (i) if the Admission occurs from the first through the 15th day
of the month, then on the first day of the calendar month in which the admission
occurs or (ii) if the Admission occurs from the 16th through the last day of the
month, then on the first day of the calendar month after the month in which the
Admission occurs.

            7.2.4 Additional Requirements. No Transfer or Admission shall be
permitted (i) if the proposed Transfer, transferee or Admission will, or could,
impair the ability of the Company to be taxed as a partnership under the Federal
income tax laws, or (ii) if the Transfer or Admission will, or could, cause the
Company's tax year to close or the Company to terminate for Federal income tax
purposes, and (iii) no Admission shall be permitted unless the proposed Member
has acknowledged in writing the



                                      -11-
<PAGE>   13

liabilities of the transferor and the Company which cannot be ascertained from
this Agreement.

            7.2.5 Necessary Amendments. In the event of the Admission of a
Member or a Permitted Transfer by a Member, this Agreement will be promptly
amended as necessary to reflect any changes in the profit and loss allocations
of Members, to reflect the capital contributions of the newly admitted Member
and to set forth any new provisions or to amend any existing provisions of this
Agreement which may be necessary or desirable in light of the Admission of a
Member or Transfer by a Member.

            7.2.6 Enforceability of Transfer Restrictions. Each Member
acknowledges the reasonableness of the restrictions on the transferability of
Membership Interests imposed by this Agreement in view of the Company purposes
and the relationship of the Members. Accordingly, the restrictions on
transferability contained in this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable.

        7.3 Members and Assignees.

            7.3.1 Rights of Admitted Member. A transferee who becomes a Member
succeeds to all of the rights and powers and is subject to all of the
obligations, restrictions and liabilities of a Member for the Membership
Interest which is acquired by the transferee;

            7.3.2 Rights of Assignee. A transferee who does not become a Member
("Assignee") will be entitled only to (i) receive, to the extent assigned, the
distributions and the allocations of income, gains, losses, deductions, credit
or similar items to which the assignor would be entitled and (ii) require
information and accounts of Company transactions and to inspect the Company
books only as required by the Act, and an Assignee shall have no other rights or
powers of a Member. An Assignee nevertheless is subject to all of the provisions
of this Agreement and to all of the obligations, restrictions and liabilities
under this Agreement for the Membership Interest acquired.

            7.3.3 Duties of Assignor. Until the time when the transferee of a
Membership Interest becomes a Member, the transferor of the Membership Interest
remains subject to all of the obligations, restrictions and liabilities under
this Agreement for the Membership Interest and retains all rights and powers of
a Member for the Membership Interest other than the right to receive cash and in
kind distributions and the return of capital contributions.

        7.4 Right of First Refusal.

            7.4.1 A Member ("Selling Member") who desires to sell all or any
portion of such Member's Membership Interest (the "Offered Interest") to a third
party purchaser ("Third Party") shall obtain from such Third Party a bona fide
written offer to



                                      -12-
<PAGE>   14

purchase such Offered Interest stating the price and other terms and conditions
for the proposed purchase (the "Offer"). The Selling Member shall give written
notification to the remaining Members of the Selling Member's intention to so
transfer the Offered Interest (the "Offer Notice") and shall include with the
Offer Notice a copy of the Offer.

            7.4.2 The remaining Members shall have the right to exercise a right
of first refusal to purchase, in proportion to the Membership Percentages of the
remaining Members who exercise such right, all (but not less than all) of the
Offered Interest upon the same terms and conditions as stated in the Offer by
giving written notification to the Selling Member of their exercise of such
right (the "Exercise Notice") within 30 days after the Offer Notice is given. If
any of the remaining Members (in the aggregate) exercise their right to purchase
all of the Offered Interest, then the transaction shall close within 90 days
after the date upon which the last Exercise Notice is given. If no remaining
Members exercise their right to purchase all of the Offered Interest, then the
Selling Member may sell the Offered Interest on the terms and conditions stated
in the Offer to the purchaser named in the Offer within 120 days after the Offer
Notice is given. The purchaser shall become either a Member or an Assignee in
accordance with Paragraph 7.2 (entitled "Transfer and Admission") and shall not
otherwise be entitled to Admission. Whether or not the Offered Interest is so
sold, it shall remain subject to all of the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, including without limitation this Paragraph 7.4.

        7.5 Withdrawal. No Member may withdraw or resign from the Company or
take any other voluntary action which would cause the dissolution of the Company
without the consent of the Manager, which consent may be withheld in its
absolute discretion.

        7.6 Death of a Member. Upon the death of a Member who is an individual,
the Membership Interest of the deceased Member shall be transferred to his or
her lawful successor(s)-in-interest. Any such successor shall become a Member in
accordance with the provisions of this Article 7.

                                    ARTICLE 8

<PAGE>   15

            8.1.3 Statutory Dissolution. The happening of any events set forth
in Section 6.01(A) of the Act, unless the business of the Company is continued
by the consent of a Majority-in-Interest of the remaining Members within 90 days
after the happening of that event and there are at least two remaining Members.

        8.2 Winding Up Affairs and Liquidations. Upon the termination and
dissolution of the Company, the Manager or the persons required or permitted by
law to carry out the winding up of the affairs of the Company ("Liquidator")
will promptly notify all Members of such dissolution; shall proceed to the
liquidation of the assets of the Company by converting such assets to cash
insofar as deemed practicable by the Manager or the Liquidator; will wind up the
affairs of the Company; and, after paying or providing for the payment of all
liabilities and obligations of the Company, will distribute the proceeds of
liquidation and other assets of the Company as provided by law and the terms of
this Agreement. Upon the dissolution of the Company as the result of the
occurrence of an event described in Paragraph 8.1 (entitled "Events of
Termination"), the Manager or Liquidator shall cause to be filed in the office
of, and on a form prescribed by, the Texas Secretary of State, a Certificate of
Dissolution. Upon the completion of the winding up of the affairs of the
Company, the Manager or Liquidator shall cause to be filed in the office of, and
on a from prescribed by, the Texas Secretary of State, a Certificate of
Cancellation of Articles of Organization.

        8.3 Continuation of Business for Purpose of Winding Up Affairs. Upon the
filing with the Texas Secretary of State of a Certificate of Dissolution, the
Company shall cease to carry on its business, except insofar as may be necessary
for the winding up of its business.

        8.4 Distributions on Dissolution. The proceeds of liquidation and other
assets of the Company shall be applied and distributed in the following order of
priority:

            8.4.1 Debts. To the payment of debts and liabilities of the Company
(other than any loans and advances that may have been made by any of the
Members, or amounts owing to any of the Members) and the expenses of
liquidation;

            8.4.2 Reserves. To the setting up of any reserves that the Manager
or Liquidator may deem reasonably necessary for any contingent or unforeseen
liabilities or obligations of the Company, which reserves shall be paid over to
an escrow holder designated by the Manager or Liquidator to be held for the
purpose of disbursing such reserves in payment of any of the aforementioned
contingencies, and, at the expiration of such period, as the Manager or the
Liquidator shall deem advisable, to distribute the balance thereafter remaining
in the manner hereinafter provided;

            8.4.3 Member Loans. To the payment of any loans or advances



                                      -14-
<PAGE>   16

that may have been made by any of the Members; and

            8.4.4 Members. Any balance then remaining will be distributed to the
Members in accordance with Paragraph 3.4 (entitled "Distributions and
Payments").

        8.5 Assets Other Than Cash. Assets of the Company may be distributed in
kind on the basis of the then fair market value of such assets as determined by
agreement of the Members, and if no such agreement of value is reached within 30
days, then such value shall be determined by an independent appraiser appointed
by the Members (the cost and expense of said appraisal to be borne by the
Company). If agreed to by all the Members, distributions in-kind will be made to
the Members as tenants-in-common. For purposes of making such distribution only,
the unrealized profit or loss on any such asset (based on its fair market value)
shall be first allocated among the Members and the distribution of the asset
shall be treated as a distribution of cash equal to the fair market value of
such asset.

                                    ARTICLE 9

                                 FISCAL MATTERS

deduction, credit or preference which a Member is required to take into account
separately on such Member's foreign, federal and state income tax returns.

                                   EXHIBIT "A"

                              ALLOCATION PROVISIONS


        1. Capital Accounts and Definitions.

           1.1 Capital Account. A Capital Account shall be maintained for each
Member in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). If the Manager
determines that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital
Accounts, or any debits or credits to the Capital Accounts (including, without
limitation, debits or credits relating to liabilities which are secured by
contributed or distributed property or which are assumed by the Company or a
Member), are computed in order to comply with such Regulations, the Manager may
make such modification, provided that the modification is not likely to have a
material affect on the amounts distributable to any Member pursuant to Article 9
of this Agreement upon the dissolution of the Company. The Manager also shall
make any appropriate modifications in the event unanticipated events might
otherwise cause this Agreement not to comply with Regulations Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv).

           1.2 Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following
capitalized terms are defined as follows:

               1.2.1 Depreciation. "Depreciation" means, for each Accounting
Period (as defined below) of the Company, an amount equal to the depreciation,
amortization or other cost recovery deduction allowable with respect to an asset
for such Accounting Period, except that if the "Gross Asset Value" (defined
below) of an asset differs from its adjusted basis for federal income tax
purposes at the beginning of such Accounting Period, Depreciation shall, in
accordance with Regulations Section 1.704- 1(b)(2)(iv)(g)(3), 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
bears to such beginning adjusted tax basis; provided, however, that if such
asset has a zero adjusted tax basis, Depreciation shall be determined using any
reasonable method selected by the Members.

               1.2.2 Gross Asset Value. "Gross Asset Value" means, with respect
to any asset, the asset's adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes, except
as follows:

                      1.2.2.1 Initial Value. The initial Gross Asset Value of
any asset contributed by a Member to the Company shall be the gross fair market
value of such asset at the time of contribution, as mutually agreed by the
contributing Member and the Manager.

                      1.2.2.2 Adjustments. The Gross Asset Values of all Company
assets shall be adjusted to equal their respective gross fair market values, as


                                      -1-
<PAGE>   22

determined by the Manager, as of the following times: (i) the acquisition of an
additional interest in the Company by any new or existing Member in exchange for
more than a de minimis capital contribution; (ii) the distribution by the
Company to a Member of more than a de minimis amount of Company property as
consideration for an interest in the Company; and (iii) the liquidation of the
Company within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g);
provided, however, that adjustments pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above shall
be made only if the Manager reasonably determines that such adjustments are
necessary or appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the
Members in the Company;

                      1.2.2.3 Distributions. The Gross Asset Value of any
Company asset distributed to any Member shall be the gross fair market value of
such asset on the date of distribution; and

                      1.2.2.4 Special Adjustments. The Gross Asset Values of
Company assets shall be increased (or decreased) to reflect any adjustments to
the adjusted basis of such assets pursuant to IRC Section 734(b) or IRC Section
743(b), but only to the extent that such adjustments are required to be taken
into account in determining Capital Accounts pursuant to Regulations Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m) and subparagraph 2.4 of this Exhibit "A"; provided,
however, that Gross Asset Values shall not be adjusted pursuant to this
subparagraph 1.2.2.4 to the extent the Manager determines that an adjustment
pursuant to subparagraph 1.2.2.2 of this Exhibit "A" is necessary or appropriate
in connection with a transaction that would otherwise result in an adjustment
pursuant to this subparagraph 1.2.2.4. If the Gross Asset Value of an asset has
been determined or adjusted pursuant to subparagraphs 1.2.2.1 or 1.2.2.2 of this
Exhibit "A" or this subparagraph 1.2.2.4, such Gross Asset Value shall
thereafter be adjusted by the Depreciation taken into account with respect to
such asset for purposes of computing "Profits" and "Losses" (as defined below).

                      1.2.2.5 Manager's Determination. Except as otherwise
provided in subparagraph 1.2.2.1 of this Exhibit "A", for purposes of
determining the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset, the reasonable
determination of the Manager shall control.

               1.2.3 Profits and Losses. "Profits" and "Losses" means, for each
Accounting Period of the Company, an amount equal to the Company's taxable
income or loss for such year, determined in accordance with IRC Section 703(a)
(for this purpose, all items of income, gain, loss or deduction required to be
stated separately pursuant to IRC Section 703(a)(1) shall be included in taxable
income or loss), with the following adjustments:

                      1.2.3.1 Income. 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 subparagraph 1.2.3 shall be added to such
taxable income or loss;

                      1.2.3.2 Special Expenditures. Any expenditures of the
Company described in IRC Section 705(a)(2)(B) or treated as IRC 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 subparagraph 1.2.3 shall be subtracted from such taxable income or loss;

                      1.2.3.3 Disposition. If the Gross Asset Value of any
Company asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph 1.2.2.2 or subparagraph
1.2.2.3 of this Exhibit "A", the amount of such adjustment shall be taken into
account as gain or loss from the disposition of such asset;

                      1.2.3.4 Gross Asset Value Adjustment. Gain or loss
resulting from any disposition of Company property with respect to which gain or
loss is recognized for federal income tax 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;

                      1.2.3.5 Special Depreciation. 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 Accounting Period, computed in accordance with subparagraph 1.2.1 of this
Exhibit "A"; and

                      1.2.3.6 Special Allocations. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Paragraph 1, any items which are specially allocated pursuant
to Paragraphs 2 or 3 of this Exhibit "A" shall not be taken into account in
computing Profits or Losses.

               1.2.4 Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. For purposes of this
Agreement, "Adjusted Capital Account Deficit" means, with respect to any Member,
the deficit balance, if any, in such Member's Capital Account as of the end of
the relevant Accounting Period after giving effect to the following adjustments:

                      1.2.4.1 Restoration Amounts. Credit to such Capital
Account any amounts which such Member is obligated to restore pursuant to any
provision of the Agreement 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

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

                      The 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



                                      -3-

interpreted consistently therewith.

        2. Special Allocations: The following special allocations shall be made
in the following order:

           2.1 Minimum Gain Chargeback. Each Member shall be specially allocated
items of Company income and gain to the extent necessary to comply with the
"minimum gain chargeback" requirements in Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f),
(i)(4).

           2.2 Qualified Income Offset. Each Member shall be specially allocated
items of Company income and gain to the extent necessary to comply with the
"qualified income offset" requirements in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(d).

           2.3 Recourse and Nonrecourse Debt. Each Member shall be specially
allocated items of Company loss, deduction and IRC Section 705(a)(2)(B)
expenditure to the extent necessary to comply with the allocation requirements
for "partner nonrecourse deductions" and "nonrecourse deductions" in Regulations
Sections 1.704-2(i), (c).

           2.4 Special Tax Basis Adjustments. To the extent that Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m) requires an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of
any Company property under IRC Sections 734(b) or 743(b) to be taken into
account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to
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 with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required
to be adjusted pursuant to such section of the Regulations.

           2.5 Adjusted Capital Account Deficits. The Losses allocated pursuant
to Paragraph 3.3 of this Agreement shall not exceed the maximum amount of Losses
that can be so allocated without causing any Member to have an Adjusted Capital
Account Deficit at the end of any Accounting Period. In the event that some but
not all of the Members would have Adjusted Capital Account Deficits as a
consequence of an allocation of Losses under Paragraph 3.2 of this Agreement,
the limitation set forth in this Paragraph 2.5 shall be applied on a Member by
Member basis so as to allocate the maximum permissible loss to each Member under
Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).

        3. Other Allocation Rules:

           3.1 Method of Allocation. For any Company Accounting Period, all
items of Company income, gain, loss, deduction and any other items not otherwise
allocated pursuant to this Agreement shall be divided among the Members in the
same proportions as they share Profits or Losses, as the case may be, for such
Company Accounting Period.

           3.2 Acknowledgment by Members. The Members are aware of the income
tax consequences of the allocations made by Article 3 of this Agreement and



                                      -4-

this Exhibit "A" and agree to be bound by the provisions of Article 3 of this
Agreement and this Exhibit "A" in reporting their shares of Company income and
loss for income tax purposes.

           3.3 Contributed Property. In accordance with IRC Section 704(c) and
the Regulations, 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 (computed in accordance with subparagraph
1.2.2.1 of this Exhibit "A").

           3.4 Tax Purposes. In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company
asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph 1.2.2.2 of this Exhibit "A",
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 IRC Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder. Any elections
or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Manager in
a manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of the Agreement.
Allocations pursuant to this Paragraph 3 are solely for purposes of federal and
state income taxes and shall not, except to the extent required pursuant to
Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), 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.

           3.5 Liquidation of Member's Interest. Upon liquidation of any
Member's interest in the Company, the liquidating distributions shall be made in
accordance with the positive Capital Account balances of the Members adjusted as
otherwise required by the provisions of this Agreement. A liquidation of a
Member's interest shall occur as required pursuant to Regulations Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g).
