2.1         Purpose
of the Trust.


 


(a)          It
is expected that the Fund shall dissolve and liquidate prior to fully winding up its affairs, including, but not limited to, the
sale of its remaining assets, the collection of any receivables and the payment of any unsatisfied debts, claims, liabilities,
commitments, suits and other obligations, whether contingent or fixed or otherwise (the “Liabilities”), except
for such liabilities and obligations for which the Fund has previously established reserves by the retention of the Cash Reserves
as described in the recitals hereto. The Trust hereby is organized for the sole purpose of winding up the affairs of the Fund as
promptly as reasonably possible and with no objective to continue or engage in the conduct of a trade or business except as necessary
for the orderly liquidation of the Trust Assets.


 


(b)          The
Cash Reserves and Fund Assets to be granted, assigned and conveyed to the Managing Trustee as of the Effective Date will be held

accordance with the terms and conditions hereof; and (iii) distribute the Trust Assets in accordance with the terms and conditions

the extent that the Managing Trustee becomes liable for the payment of taxes, including withholding taxes, with respect to income
derived from the investment of funds held hereunder or any payment made hereunder (collectively, the “Taxes”),
the Managing Trustee may pay such Taxes from the assets of the Trust. The Managing Trustee may withhold from any payment of the
Trust Assets such amount as the Managing Trustee estimates to be sufficient to provide for the payment of such Taxes not yet paid,

any liability for Taxes and for any penalties or interest with respect to Taxes on such investment income or payments in the manner

2.3          Payment
of Liabilities. The Trust hereby agrees to assume all Liabilities of the Fund on the Effective Date. Should any Liability be
asserted against the Trust as the transferee of the Trust Assets or as a result of the assumption of the Liabilities, the Managing
Trustee may use such part of the Trust Assets as may be necessary in contesting any such Liability or in payment thereof. In no
event shall the Managing Trustee, Beneficiaries or employees or agents of the Trust be personally liable, nor shall any personal
property of such Persons or any other Trust Assets be subject to attachment, in the event the Trust Assets are not sufficient to
satisfy the Liabilities asserted against or payable out of the Fund’s available Trust Assets in the Trust.

of Sale, Assignment, Acceptance and Assumption Agreement; Instruments of Further Assurance. On the Effective Date, the Fund
and the Trust shall execute a Bill of Sale, Assignment, Acceptance and Assumption Agreement conveying the Fund Assets, Cash Reserves
and Liabilities to the Trust, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A hereto. After the dissolution of the Fund, such Persons
who shall have the right and power to so act, will, upon reasonable request of the Managing Trustee, execute, acknowledge, and
deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be necessary or proper to carry out effectively the purposes of
this Agreement, to confirm or effectuate the transfer to the Managing Trustee of any property intended to be covered hereby, and

Article

BENEFICIARIES


 


3.1         Beneficial
Interests.


 


(a)          The
Beneficial Interest of each Initial Beneficiary hereof shall be determined by the Fund in accordance with the Fund’s list
of Fund Unit holders as of the Record Date (the “List”). The Fund will deliver the List to the Managing Trustee
promptly after the Record Date specifying the Fund Units of each Member in the Fund. Each Fund Unit owned by a Member shall be
converted into Beneficial Interests in the Trust. For ease of administration, the List shall express the Beneficial Interest of
each Initial Beneficiary in terms of units and it is intended that each unit shall represent one Trust Unit in the Trust.

    	5



    	 



    

 


(c)          If
any conflicting claims or demands are made or asserted with respect to the ownership of any Trust Units, or if there should be
any disagreement between the transferees, assignees, heirs, representatives or legatees succeeding to all or part of the interest
of any Beneficiary resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with such Trust Units, then, in any of such
events, the Managing Trustee shall be entitled, at its sole election, to refuse to comply with any such conflicting claims or demands.
In so refusing, the Managing Trustee may elect to make no payment or distribution with respect to such Trust Units, or to make
such payment to a court of competent jurisdiction or an escrow agent, and in so doing the Managing Trustee shall not be or become
liable to any of such parties for their failure or refusal to comply with any of such conflicting claims or demands, nor shall
the Managing Trustee be liable for interest on any funds which it may so withhold. The Managing Trustee shall be entitled to refrain
and refuse to act until either (i) the rights of the adverse claimants have been adjudicated by a final non-appealable judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) all differences have been adjusted by valid written agreement between all of such
parties, and the Managing Trustee shall have been furnished with an executed counterpart of such agreement, or (iii) there
is furnished to the Managing Trustee a surety bond or other security satisfactory to the Managing Trustee, as it shall deem appropriate,
to fully indemnify it as between all conflicting claims or demands.


 


3.2         Rights
of Beneficiaries. Each Beneficiary shall be entitled to participate in the rights and benefits due to a Beneficiary hereunder
according to his Beneficial Interest. Each Beneficiary shall take and hold the same subject to all the terms and provisions of
this Agreement. The interest of the Beneficiary hereby is declared and shall be in all respects personal property and upon the
death of an individual Beneficiary, his Beneficial Interest shall pass as personal property to his legal representative and such
death shall in no way terminate or affect the validity of this Agreement, provided that the Managing Trustee shall not be required
to evidence a book entry transfer of a deceased Beneficiary’s Beneficial Interest to his legal representative until the Managing
Trustee shall have received Letters Testamentary or Letters of Administration and written notice of the death of the deceased Beneficiary.
A Beneficiary shall have no title or right to, or possession, management or control of, the Trust Assets except as herein expressly
provided. No widower, widow, heir, or devisee of any Person who may be a Beneficiary shall have any right of dower, homestead,
or inheritance, or of partition, or of any other right, statutory or otherwise, in any property forming a part of Trust Assets
but the whole title to the Trust Assets shall be vested in the Managing Trustee and the sole interest of the applicable Beneficiaries
shall be the rights and benefits given to such Persons under this Agreement.


 


3.3         No
Transfer of Interests of Beneficiaries. No Beneficial Interest may be transferred by any Beneficiary in person or by a duly
authorized agent or attorney, or by the properly appointed legal representatives of the Beneficiary. No Beneficiary has authority
or power to sell, assign, transfer, encumber, or in any other manner dispose of his Beneficial Interest; provided, however, that
the Beneficial Interest shall be assignable or transferable by will, intestate succession, or operation of law; further provided
that a Beneficiary shall be allowed to assign or transfer a Beneficial Interest held by a tax-qualified employee retirement plan
or account (including a regular IRA, a Keogh plan or a 401(k) plan) to the plan participant or account owner (or their beneficiaries),
but only if and to the extent that (x) a distribution from the plan or account is required to be made in order to satisfy the required
minimum distribution (“RMD”) provisions applicable to such plan or account, and (y) such RMD requirements cannot
be satisfied by distributing other assets from such plan or account, or from other accounts of such account owner; and further
provided, that the executor or administrator of the estate of a Beneficiary may mortgage, pledge, grant a security interest in,
hypothecate or otherwise encumber, the Beneficial Interest held by the estate of such Beneficiary if necessary in order to borrow
money to pay estate, succession or inheritance taxes or the expenses of administering the estate of the Beneficiary, upon written
notice to and upon written consent of the Managing Trustee, which consent may be withheld in the Managing Trustee’s sole
discretion.


 


Except as may be otherwise required
by law, the Beneficial Interests of the Beneficiaries hereunder shall not be subject to attachment, execution, sequestration or
any order of a court, nor shall such Beneficial Interests be subject to the contracts, debts, obligations, engagements or liabilities
of any Beneficiary, but the Beneficial Interest of a Beneficiary shall be paid by the Managing Trustee to the Beneficiary free
and clear of all assignments, attachments, anticipations, levies, executions, decrees and sequestrations and shall become the property
of the Beneficiary only when actually received by such Beneficiary.

Trustee as Beneficiary. The Managing Trustee, either individually or in a representative or fiduciary capacity, may be a Beneficiary
to the same extent as if it were not a Managing Trustee hereunder and shall have all the rights of a Beneficiary, including, without
limitation, the right to vote and to receive distributions, to the same extent as if it were not the Managing Trustee hereunder.

    	7



    	 



    

 


(a)          Distributions
of Net Cash Flow from Operations of the Trust for any fiscal year will be made ninety percent (90%) to the Beneficiaries and ten
percent (10%) to the Managing Trustee until the “Unitholders’ 8% Preferred Return” is attained (pro rata among
the Beneficiaries in proportion to their Trust Units), commencing on the date such Beneficiary (or predecessor in interest) first
contributed capital to the Fund, and assuming for the purposes of this Section 5.4 that distributions of Net Cash Flow from Operations
include prior distributions of “Net Cash Flow from Operations” as defined under, and made pursuant to, the Fund Agreement,
that all distributions by the Fund to the Managing Member were paid to the Managing Trustee, that all distributions by the Fund
to the Members were paid to the Beneficiaries, and that during any period prior to the Effective Date, each Beneficiary’s
Invested Capital Contribution was his or her “Invested Capital Contribution” as defined under the Fund Agreement;


 


(b)          Thereafter,
distributions of Net Cash Flow from Operations shall be made one hundred percent (100%) to the Beneficiaries until the Early Investors’
12% Incentive Return is attained; and


 


(c)          Thereafter,
Distributions of Net Cash Flow from Operations shall be made fifty percent (50%) to the Beneficiaries (pro rata among the Beneficiaries
in proportion to their Trust Units) and fifty percent (50%) to the Managing Trustee.


 


5.5         Interim
Distributions of Net Sales Proceeds. Subject to Sections 5.6 and 5.7, at such times as may be determined by it in its sole
discretion, the Managing Trustee shall distribute, or cause to be distributed, to the Beneficiaries the Net Sales Proceeds, after
replenishment of any reserves, in the following order of priority:


 


(a)          First,
one hundred percent (100%) to the Beneficiaries in an amount equal to their Invested Capital Contributions, calculated at the time
of such Distribution (pro rata among the Unitholders in proportion to their Invested Capital Contributions) and assuming for the
purposes of this Section 5.5 that distributions of Net Sales Proceeds include prior distributions of “Net Sales Proceeds”
as defined under, and made pursuant to, the Fund Agreement, that all distributions by the Fund to the Managing Member were paid
to the Managing Trustee, that all distributions by the Fund to the Members were paid to the Beneficiaries, and that during any
period prior to the Effective Date, each Beneficiary’s Invested Capital Contribution was his or her “Invested Capital
Contribution” as defined under the Fund Agreement.;


 


(b)          Thereafter,
ninety percent (90%) to the Beneficiaries and ten percent (10%) to the Managing Trustee until the Beneficiaries have received distributions
in an amount equal to the unpaid balance of their aggregate Unitholders’ 8% Preferred Return (pro rata among the Unitholders
in proportion to their Trust Units); and


 


(c)          Thereafter,
fifty percent (50%) to the Beneficiaries (pro rata among the Unitholders in proportion to their Trust Units) and fifty percent
(50%) to the Managing Trustee.


 


5.6         Final
Distribution. If the Managing Trustee determines that (a) all of the real properties of the Trust have been sold, with the
proceeds from such sales and any amounts held in reserve for such properties distributed pursuant to Section 5.5, and all other
claims, expenses, charges, liabilities and obligations of the Trust have been paid or discharged, or (b) if the existence of the
Trust shall terminate pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof and not have been extended pursuant to such Section 4.1, then in the event
of (a) or (b) above Managing Trustee shall, consistent with the conservation and protection of the Trust Assets, expeditiously
make Liquidating Distributions to the Beneficiaries in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 5.5
above. The Managing Trustee shall hold in the Trust and thereafter make disposition of all Liquidating Distributions and
other payments due any Beneficiaries who have not been located subject to applicable state laws regarding escheat and abandoned
property. It is understood that the Managing Trustee and the Beneficiary’s bank in any funds transfer may rely solely upon
any account numbers or similar identifying number provided by the parties hereto to identify (i) the Beneficiary, (ii) the
Beneficiary’s bank, or (iii) an intermediary bank. The Managing Trustee may apply any of the Trust Assets for any payment
order it executes using any such identifying number, even where its use may result in a person other than the Beneficiary being
paid, or the transfer of funds to a bank other than the Beneficiary’s bank, or an intermediary bank designated.

5.7          Limitations
on Distributions. The Distributions to be made pursuant to this Article V are subject to the limitations of this Section 5.7.
Distributions may be made only if the Managing Trustee determines in its reasonable judgment that the Trust has sufficient cash
on hand exceeding the current and the anticipated needs of the Trust to fulfill its business purposes (including its needs for
operating expenses and reserves). No Distribution will be declared or made if, after giving it effect, the Fund would not be able
to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or the fair market value of the Trust’s assets would
be less than the sum of its liabilities. All such Distributions to Beneficiaries shall be made only to the Persons who, according
to the books and records of the Trust, are the holders of record of the Trust Units in respect of which such Distributions are
made on the actual date of Distribution. Neither the Trust nor the Managing Trustee shall incur any liability for making Distributions
in accordance with this Article V.


 


5.8         Reports
to Beneficiaries and Others. As soon as practicable after the end of each taxable year of the Trust on a timeline as though
the Trust were a non-accelerated filer thereunder, the Managing Trustee shall file an annual report under cover of Form 10-K with
the Commission showing the assets and liabilities of the Trust at the end of each calendar year and the receipts and disbursements
of the Managing Trustee with respect to the Trust for such period covered by the report. The annual report will also describe the
changes in the assets of the Trust and the actions taken by the Managing Trustee during such period covered by the report. The
financial statements contained with in such annual report need not be audited but will be prepared on a liquidation basis in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles The Managing Trustee will also file periodic reports under cover of Form 8-K with
the Commission whenever an event occurs for which a Form 8-K would have been required to be filed for the Trust or whenever, in
the opinion of the Managing Trustee, any other material event relating to the Trust or its assets has occurred. The taxable year
of the Trust shall end on December 31 of each year unless the Managing Trustee deems it advisable to establish some other date
as the date on which the taxable year of the Trust shall end.


 


5.9          Federal
Income Tax Information. Within seventy-five (75) days after the end of each fiscal year (in the event of a calendar taxable
year of the Trust, or within one hundred twenty (120) days thereafter in the event the Trust has changed to a non-calendar taxable
year), the Managing Trustee shall direct its agent to mail to each Person who was a Beneficiary at the close of the year, a schedule
K-1 stating the Beneficiary’s share of taxable income and tax deductions. In addition, after receipt of a good faith written
request, or in its discretion without such request or if required by applicable law, such agent (or if it cannot, the Managing
Trustee) shall furnish to any Person who has been a Beneficiary at any time during the preceding year a statement containing such
further information as is reasonably available to the agent or Managing Trustee, respectively, which shall be helpful in determining
the amount of taxable income which such Person should include in such Person’s federal income tax return for such preceding
taxable year.


 


5.10       Employment
of Manager.


 


(a)          The
Managing Trustee shall conduct the affairs of the Trust, devoting such time thereto as it, in its sole discretion, shall determine
to be necessary to manage Trust affairs in an efficient manner. The Managing Trustee shall have the power to appoint, employ or
contract with any Person or Persons as the Managing Trustee may deem necessary or proper for the transaction of the activities
of the Trust, including the Manager. The Managing Trustee may grant or delegate such authority to the Manager as the Managing Trustee
may in its sole discretion deem necessary or desirable to carry out the purpose of the Trust without regard to whether such authority
is normally granted or delegated by trustees.


 


(b)          The
Manager or other Persons shall not be required to administer the Trust as its sole and exclusive function and may have other business
interests and may engage in other activities similar or in addition to those relating to the Trust, including the rendering of
advice or services of any kind to investors or any other Persons and the management of other investments.

by it, or for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement while acting in good faith and in
a manner he, she or it reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust or its Beneficiaries; and
whose actions did not breach such Person’s fiduciary duties to the Trust and whose actions did not constitute fraud, willful
misconduct or gross negligence, and with respect to a criminal action or proceeding, if the Person had no reasonable cause to believe

the proper party or parties.


 


(b)          The
Managing Trustee may consult with legal counsel, auditors or other experts to be selected by it, including firms with which the

obligation of the Trust to include a reference to this Agreement and to provide that neither the Beneficiaries, the Managing Trustee
nor their agents shall be liable thereunder and that the other parties to such instrument shall look solely to the Trust Assets
for the payment of any claim thereunder or the performance thereof; provided, however, that the omission of such provision from
any such instrument shall not render the Beneficiaries, the Managing Trustee, or their agents liable, nor shall the Managing Trustee
be liable to anyone for such omission.


 


7.3         Limitation
on Liability to Third Persons. No Beneficiary shall be subject to any personal liability whatsoever, in tort, contract or otherwise,
to any Person in connection with the Trust Assets or the affairs of the Trust; and neither the Managing Trustee nor any employee
or agent of the Trust shall be subject to any personal liability whatsoever, in tort, contract or otherwise, to any Person in connection
with any Trust Assets or the affairs of the Trust, except for such Person’s own willful misconduct, knowingly and intentionally
committed in bad faith; and all such other Persons shall look solely to any Trust Assets for satisfaction of claims of any nature
arising in connection with the affairs of the Trust. The Managing Trustee shall purchase and maintain insurance as it deems reasonably
necessary for the protection of all Trust Assets, its Beneficiaries, the Trustee and its employees and agents in such amount as
the Managing Trustee shall deem adequate to cover all foreseeable liability to the extent available at reasonable rates.


 


7.4         Recitals.
Any written instrument creating an obligation of the Trust shall be conclusively taken to have been executed or done by the Managing
Trustee, or the employee or agent of this Trust only in its capacity as Managing Trustee under this Agreement or in its capacity
as employee or agent of the Trust.


 


7.5         Indemnification.


 


(a)          Subject
to all of the provisions of this Section 7.5, the Trust shall indemnify a Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made
a party to a threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
and whether formal or informal, other than an action by or in the right of the Trust, by reason of the fact that he, she or it
is or was a Managing Trustee of the Trust, or is or was serving at the request of the Trust as a director, officer, partner, trustee,
employee or agent of another foreign or domestic limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, whether for profit or not, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts
paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him, her or it in connection with the action, suit or proceeding, if the
Person acted in good faith and in a manner he, she or it reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Trust or its Beneficiaries, did not breach such Person’s fiduciary duties to the Trust and whose actions did not constitute
fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence, and with respect to a criminal action or proceeding, if the Person had no reasonable
cause to believe his, her or its conduct was unlawful.  The termination of an action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order,
settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does not, itself, create a presumption that the Person
did not act in good faith and in a manner which he, she or it reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of the Trust or its Beneficiaries, and, with respect to a criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his,
her or its conduct was not unlawful.


 


(b)          Indemnification
shall not be made to a Person for a claim, issue, or matter in which the Person has been found liable to the Trust unless and only
to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought has determined upon application that, despite the adjudication
of liability but in view of all circumstances of the case, the Person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for
the expenses which the court considers proper.


 


(c)          To
the extent that a Person has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of an action, suit, or proceeding referred to
in Sections 7.5(a) or 7.5(b) of this Agreement, or in defense of a claim, issue or matter in the action, suit, or proceeding, he,
she or it shall be indemnified against expenses, including actual and reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by him, her or
it in connection with the action, suit or proceeding and an action, suit, or proceeding brought to enforce the mandatory indemnification
provided in this Section 7.5.


 



    	14



    	 



    

 


(d)          An
indemnification under Sections 7.5(a) or 7.5(b) of this Agreement, unless ordered by a court, shall be made by the Trust only as
authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Person is proper in the circumstances because
he, she or it has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 7.5(a) or 7.5(b), whichever is applicable. 
Determination that indemnification is proper shall be made as follows:


 


(1)         For
the indemnification of the Managing Trustee, such determination shall be made only if all of the following conditions shall be
satisfied:


 


a.            The
Managing Trustee has determined, in good faith, that the course of conduct which caused the loss or liability was in the best interests
of the Fund.


 


b.            Such
liability or loss was not the result of fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Managing Trustee.


 


c.            Such
indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is recoverable only out of the assets of the Trust and not from the Beneficiaries.


 


d.            Such
determination shall be made in either of the following ways: (A) by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or (B) by the
Beneficiaries pursuant to Article X.


 


e.            If
and only to the extent prohibited by applicable law, indemnification will not be allowed on any liability imposed by judgment,
and costs associated therewith, including attorneys’ fees, arising from or out of a violation of state or federal securities
laws associated with the offer and sale of the Fund’s Units.  Indemnification will be allowed for settlements and related
expenses of lawsuits alleging securities law violations, and for expenses incurred in successfully defending such lawsuits if (1)
there has been a successful adjudication of the merits of each count involving alleged securities law violations as to the indemnitee
or (2) the claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the indemnitee or
(3) a court of competent jurisdiction approves the settlement of the claims against the indemnitee and finds that indemnification
of the settlement and related costs should be made and prior to seeking such approval, the court has been apprised that the California
Commissioner of Corporations and the Securities and Exchange Commission believes that indemnification for violations of securities
law violates the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968 and the Securities Act of 1933 and is against public policy and therefore
unenforceable.


 


(2)         For
the indemnification of all Persons other than the Managing Trustee, such determination shall be made in any of the following ways:
(A) by the Managing Trustee provided the Managing Trustee was not a party to the action, suit or proceeding; (B) by independent
legal counsel in a written opinion; or (C) by the Beneficiaries pursuant to Article X.


 


(e)          If
a Person is entitled to indemnification under Sections 7.5(a) or 7.5(b) of this Agreement for a portion of expenses including attorneys’
fees, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement, but not for the total amount thereof, the Trust may indemnify
the Person for the portion of the expenses, judgments, penalties, fines or amounts paid in settlement for which the Person is entitled
to be indemnified.


 



    	15



    	 



    

 


(f)           Expenses
incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding described in Sections 7.5(a) or 7.5(b) of this Agreement may
be paid by the Trust in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or
on behalf of the Person involved to repay the expenses if it is ultimately determined that the Person is not entitled to be indemnified
by the Fund and, in the event of an action initiated by a Beneficiary or a third party, provided a court of competent jurisdiction
specifically approves such advance.  The undertaking shall be by unlimited general obligation of the Person on whose behalf
advances are made but need not be secured.


 


(g)          The
Trust may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Managing Trustee, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement
of expenses to any employee or agent of the Trust to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Section 7.5(a) with respect to
the indemnification and advancement of expenses of the Managing Trustee and officers of the Fund.


 


(h)          The
indemnification provided in the foregoing sections of this Section 7.5 continues as to a Person who has ceased to be a Managing
Trustee, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such Person.


 


(i)           The
Trust may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any Person who is or was a Managing Trustee, officer, employee or agent
of the Trust, or who is or was serving at the request of the Trust as a director, officer, employee or agent of another limited
liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such
Person and incurred by such Person in any such capacity or arising out of such Person’s status as such, whether or not the
Fund would have power to indemnify such Person against such liability under this Agreement or the laws of the State of California. 
The Trust will not incur the cost of that portion of liability insurance which insures the Managing Trustee for any liability for
which the Fund is prohibited from indemnifying the Managing Trustee.


 


(j)           The
right to indemnification conferred in this Section 7.5 shall be a contract right, and shall apply to services of a Managing Trustee
or officer as an employee or agent of the Trust as well as in such Person’s capacity as a Managing Trustee or officer. 
Except as provided in Section 7.5(d) of this Agreement, the Trust shall have no obligations under this Section 7.5 to indemnify
any Person in connection with any proceeding, or part thereof, initiated by such Person without authorization by the Managing Trustee.


 


(k)          The
indemnification or advancement of expenses provided under this Section 7.5 is not exclusive of other rights to which a Person seeking
indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under a contractual arrangement with the Trust.  However, the total
amount of expenses advanced or indemnified from all sources combined shall not exceed the amount of actual expenses incurred by
the Person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses.


 


(l)            No
amendment or deletion of this Section 7.5 shall apply to or have any effect on any Managing Trustee or officer of the Trust for
or with respect to any acts or omissions of any such Person occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.


 


7.6          Rights
of Managing Trustees, Employees, Independent Contractors and Agents to Own Trust Units or Other Property and to Engage in Other
Business. Any Managing Trustee, employee, independent contractor or agent, including the Manager, may own, hold and dispose
of Trust Units for its individual account, and may exercise all rights thereof and thereunder to the same extent and in the same
manner as if it were not a Managing Trustee, employee, independent contractor or agent. Any Managing Trustee, employee, independent
contractor or agent, including the Manager, may, in its personal capacity or in the capacity of trustee, manager, officer, director,
shareholder, partner, member, advisor, employee of any Person or otherwise, have business interests and holdings similar to or
in addition to those relating to the Trust. Any Managing Trustee, employee, independent contractor or agent of the Trust, including
the Manager, may be a trustee, manager, officer, director, shareholder, partner, member, advisor, employee or independent contractor
of, or otherwise have a direct or indirect interest in, any Person who may be engaged to render advice or services to the Trust,
and may receive compensation from such Person as well as compensation as Trustee, employee, independent contractor or agent, including
as Manager, or otherwise hereunder so long as such interest is disclosed to the Managing Trustee. None of these activities in and
of themselves shall be deemed to conflict with its duties as Managing Trustee, employee, independent contractor or agent, including
as Manager.

Article
VIII


THE
MANAGING TRUSTEE AND SUCCESSOR MANAGING TRUSTEE


 


8.1          Number
and Qualification of Managing Trustees. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.3 of the Agreement relating to the period pending
the appointment of a successor Managing Trustee, there shall be one Managing Trustee of this Trust, which shall be a citizen and
resident of or a corporation or other entity which is incorporated or formed under the laws of a state of the United States. The
number of Managing Trustees may be increased or decreased from time to time by the Managing Trustee.


 


If any entity Managing Trustee shall
change its name, or shall reorganize or reincorporate, or shall merge with or into or consolidate with any other entity such entity
Managing Trustee shall be deemed to be a continuing entity and shall continue to act as a Managing Trustee hereunder with the same
liabilities, duties, powers, titles, discretions and privileges as are herein specified for a Managing Trustee.


 


8.2          Resignation
and Removal. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.2, until the dissolution of the Trust, the Managing Trustee shall
not take any voluntary step to dissolve itself or to resign as Managing Trustee. The Managing Trustee shall have the right to resign
voluntarily as Managing Trustee or to dissolve itself with the concurrence of the Beneficiaries by a Majority Vote; provided, however,
that the Managing Trustee may, without the consent of the Beneficiaries, to the extent permitted by law, substitute in its stead
as Managing Trustee any entity which has, by merger, consolidation or otherwise, acquired substantially all of such Managing Trustee’s
assets, stock or other evidence of equity interest and continued its business. Any Managing Trustee may be removed only upon the
Majority Vote of Beneficiaries. All obligations of the Managing Trustee hereunder shall cease and terminate on the effective date
of its resignation or removal and its sole responsibility thereafter shall be to hold the Trust Assets for a period of thirty (30)
calendar days following the effective date of resignation or removal, at which time, if a successor Managing Trustee shall have
been appointed and have accepted such appointment in a writing to the Beneficiaries, then upon written notice thereof given by
the successor Managing Trustee to the resigning Managing Trustee, the resigning Managing Trustee shall deliver the Trust Assets
to the successor Managing Trustee. If a successor Managing Trustee shall not have been appointed within a thirty (30) day period
from the predecessor Managing Trustee’s resignation or removal, for any reason whatsoever, the resigning Managing Trustee
shall deliver the Trust Assets to a court of competent jurisdiction in the county in which the Trust Assets are there being held
and give written notice of the same to the parties hereto.


 


The resigning Managing Trustee shall
be entitled to payment of any unpaid fees (which shall be pro-rated as of the effective date of the resignation or removal) and
expenses and to reimbursement by the Beneficiaries out of the Trust Assets for any expenses incurred in connection with the transfer
of the Trust Assets pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.2 of this Agreement.


 


8.3          Appointment
of Successor. Should at any time a Managing Trustee resign or be removed, unless any remaining Managing Trustees shall decrease
the number of Managing Trustees of the Trust pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof, a vacancy shall be deemed to exist and a successor
shall be appointed by any remaining Managing Trustees. If there are no remaining Managing Trustees, the Beneficiaries may, pursuant
to Article X hereof, call a meeting to appoint a successor Managing Trustee upon the Majority Vote of Beneficiaries. If such a
vacancy is not filled by any remaining Managing Trustees within ninety (90) days, the remaining Managing Trustees must notify the
Beneficiaries of their inability to fill such vacancy, and the Beneficiaries may, pursuant to Article X hereof, call a meeting
to appoint a successor Managing Trustee by a Majority Vote of Beneficiaries. Pending the appointment of a successor Managing Trustee,
the remaining Managing Trustee or Trustees then serving may take any action in the manner set forth in this Agreement.


 



    	17



    	 



    

 


8.4          Acceptance
of Appointment by Successor Managing Trustee. Any successor Managing Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute an instrument
accepting such appointment hereunder. Thereupon such successor Managing Trustee shall, without any further act, become vested with
all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts and duties of his or its predecessor in the Trust hereunder with like effect
as if originally named therein.


 


8.5          Bonds.
No bond shall be required of the original Managing Trustee hereunder, and no bond shall be required of any successor Managing Trustee
hereunder. If a bond is required by law, no surety or security with respect to such bond shall be required unless required by law.

the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent, or waiver, the removal of a Trustee, the appointment of
a successor Trustee, or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action such Beneficiaries
have joined therein may be evidenced (i) by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by Beneficiaries
in person or by agent or attorney appointed in writing, or (ii) by the record of the Beneficiaries voting in favor thereof
at any meeting of Beneficiaries duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article X of this agreement. Such meeting
or writing may take any form permitted under California law.


 


9.2          Limitation
on Suits by Beneficiaries. No Beneficiary shall have any right by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to institute any
action or proceeding at law or in equity against any party other than the Trustees upon or under or with respect to any Trust Assets
or the agreements relating to or forming part of any Trust Assets, and the Beneficiaries do hereby waive any such right.


 


9.3          Requirement
of Undertaking. The Managing Trustee may request any court to require, and any court may in its discretion require, in any
suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Agreement, or in any suit against the Managing Trustee for any action
taken or omitted by it as Managing Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of
such suit, and such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any
party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant;
provided, however, that the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit by the Managing Trustee.


 


Article
X


MEETING
OF BENEFICIARIES


 


10.1        Meetings
of Beneficiaries. Meetings of all Beneficiaries may be called by the Managing Trustee and shall be called upon the written
request to the Managing Trustee of Beneficiaries holding in the aggregate at least a majority of the Beneficial Interests owned
by all Beneficiaries. The request shall state the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is to be called.


 


10.2       Purpose
of Meetings. A meeting of the Beneficiaries may be called at any time and from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this
Article for the purposes of taking any action which the terms of this Agreement permit a Beneficiary having a specified aggregate
Beneficial Interest to take either acting alone or with the Managing Trustee.


 


10.3       Place
of Meetings. All meetings of the Beneficiaries shall be held at the principal office of the Trust or at such other place as
shall be determined by the Managing Trustee and stated in the notice of meeting.

10.4        Notice
of Meetings.  In the case of a meeting requested by Beneficiaries holding at least a majority in the aggregate of the
Beneficial Interests owned by all Beneficiaries, the notice shall be delivered to the Beneficiaries of the Trust within 10 business
days of receipt of such request.  Except as otherwise provided by statute, written notice of the time, place and purposes
of a meeting of Beneficiaries shall be given not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each Beneficiary,
either personally or by mailing such notice to its last address as it appears on the books and records of the Trust.  The
notice must include a detailed statement of the action proposed, including a verbatim statement of the wording of any resolution
proposed for adoption by the Beneficiaries and of any proposed amendment to the Agreement. The Trust will provide for proxies or
written consents which specify a choice between approval and disapproval of each matter to be acted upon at the meeting. 
No notice need be given of an adjourned meeting provided the time and place to which such meeting is adjourned are announced at
the meeting at which the adjournment is taken and at the adjourned meeting only such business is transacted as might have been
transacted at the original meeting.  However, 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 Beneficiary of record on the new record date entitled to notice as provided
in this Agreement.


 


10.5       Record
Dates.  The Managing Trustee may fix in advance a date as the record date for the purpose of determining Beneficiaries
entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting of Beneficiaries or an adjournment thereof, or to express consent or to dissent
from a proposal without a meeting, or for the purpose of determining Beneficiaries entitled to receive payment of a Distribution
or allotment of a right, or for the purpose of any other action.  The date fixed shall not be more than 60 nor less than 20
days before the date of the meeting, nor more than 60 days before any other action.  In such case only such Beneficiaries
as shall be Beneficiaries of record on the date so fixed shall be entitled to notice of and to vote at such meeting or adjournment
thereof, or to express consent or to dissent from such proposal, or to receive payment of such Distribution or to receive such
allotment of rights, or to participate in any other action, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any Units on the
books of the Trust, or otherwise, after any such record date.


 


10.6       Quorum. 
Unless a greater or lesser quorum is required in the California law, the Beneficiaries present at a meeting in person or by proxy
who, as of the record date for such meeting, were holders of a majority of the Beneficial Interests held by all Beneficiaries shall
constitute a quorum at the meeting.  Whether or not a quorum is present, a meeting of Beneficiaries may be adjourned by a
vote of the Beneficiaries present in person or by proxy.


 


10.7       Proxies. 
A Beneficiary entitled to vote at a meeting of Beneficiaries or to express consent or dissent without a meeting may authorize other
Persons to act for such Beneficiary by proxy.  A proxy shall be signed by the Beneficiary or its authorized agent or representative
and shall not be valid after the expiration of one year from its date unless otherwise provided in the proxy.  A proxy is
revocable at the pleasure of the Beneficiary executing it except as otherwise provided by California law.


 


10.8        Inspectors
of Election.  The Managing Trustee, in advance of a Beneficiaries’ meeting, may, and on request of a Beneficiary
entitled to vote thereat shall, appoint one or more inspectors.  In case a Person appointed fails to appear or act, the vacancy
may be filled by appointment made by the Managing Trustee in advance of the meeting or at the meeting by the Person presiding thereat. 
If appointed, the inspectors shall determine the Beneficial Interests of all Beneficiaries represented at the meeting, the existence
of a quorum and the validity and effect of proxies, and shall receive votes, ballots or consents, hear and determine challenges
or consents, determine the result, and do such acts as are proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all Beneficiaries. 
On request of the person presiding at the meeting or a Beneficiary entitled to vote thereat, the inspectors shall make and execute
a written report to the Person presiding at the meeting of any of the facts found by them and matters determined by them. 
The report shall be prima facie evidence of the facts stated and of the vote as certified by the inspectors.


 


10.9        Actions
Without a Meeting.  Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Beneficiaries may be taken without
a meeting, without prior notice, and without a vote, if consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, are signed by the
number of Beneficiaries required to approve such action, but in no event less than a majority in Beneficial Interest of the Beneficiaries. 
Each written consent will bear the date and signature of each Beneficiary who signs the consent.

AMENDMENTS


 


11.1       Consent
of Beneficiaries. Upon the Majority Vote of Beneficiaries, or such greater percentage as shall be specified in this Agreement
for the taking of an action by the Beneficiaries under the affected provision of this Agreement, the Managing Trustee shall promptly
make and execute a declaration amending this Agreement for the purpose of adding any material provisions to or changing in any
material manner or eliminating any of the material provisions of this Agreement or amendments thereto as they apply to the Trust;
provided, however, that no such amendment shall affect the Beneficiaries’ rights to receive their pro rata shares of the
Trust Assets at the time of distribution; provided further, however, that, so long as such amendment has been approved by the Managing
Trustee, no consent of the Beneficiaries shall be required with respect to any amendment made (a) solely for the purpose of facilitating
the transferability by Beneficiaries of Trust Units, (b) to comply with applicable laws, including tax laws or to satisfy any requirements,
conditions, guidelines or opinions contained in any opinion, directive, order, ruling or regulation of the Commission, the Internal
Revenue Service or any other U.S. federal or state or non-U.S. governmental agency, compliance with which the Managing Trustee
deems to be in the best interest of the Beneficiaries as a whole, (c) to obtain no-action assurances from the staff of the Commission
regarding relief from registration and reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, which relief the Managing Trustee deems to
be in the best interest of the Beneficiaries as a whole, (d) to cause the Trust to be treated as a liquidating trust under Treasury
Regulation Section 301.7701-4(d) and any analogous provision of state or local law, if the Managing Trustee deems it to be in the
best interests of the Beneficiaries as a whole, or (e) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein which
may be inconsistent with any other provision herein, or to add any other provision with respect to matters or questions arising
under this Agreement which will not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.


 


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement, this Agreement shall in no event be amended to change the limited liability of the Beneficiaries without the
vote or consent of all of the Beneficiaries, nor shall this Agreement be amended to diminish the rights or benefits to which any
of the Managing Trustee or Beneficiaries are entitled under the provisions of this Agreement, without the consent of all of the
Beneficiaries who would be adversely affected thereby, and in the case of the Managing Trustee being singularly affected, then
by the Managing Trustee.


 


11.2        Effect
of Amendment. Upon the execution of any such declaration of amendment by the Managing Trustee, this Agreement shall be deemed
to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties, and immunities
of the Managing Trustee and the Beneficiaries under this Agreement with respect to the Trust shall thereafter be determined, exercised
and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modification and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such
amendment shall be thereby deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Agreement for any and all purposes.


 


11.3        Managing
Trustee’s Declining to Execute Documents. If, in the reasonable opinion of the Managing Trustee, any document required
to be executed pursuant to the terms of Section 14.2 hereof adversely affects any right, obligation, immunity or indemnity in favor
of the Managing Trustee under this Agreement, the Managing Trustee may in its discretion decline to execute such document.
