    	 	2

provided by this Agreement or as required by the Act, no Member other than the Managing Member shall (i) have the power to act

of being an authorized person or a member of the Company.


 


9. Capital Contributions.


 


(a)           As used herein,
“Percentage Interest” shall mean, with respect to any Member at any point in time, a fraction, expressed
as a percentage, (i) the numerator of which shall be the aggregate capital contributions made by such Member to the Company as
of such point in time and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the aggregate capital contributions made by all Members to the
Company as of such point in time, as the same may be adjusted pursuant to Section 9(d) hereof. The initial Percentage Interests
of the Members are listed on their respective signature pages hereto.


 


(b)           The Members have
made initial capital contributions to the Company in the amounts set forth on their respective signature pages attached hereto.


 


(c)           If either (i)
the Managing Member determines that additional funds are necessary for the operation of the Company’s business and such additional
funds are consistent with the Development Budget (as defined below), or (ii) the Deciding Members otherwise determine that additional
funds are necessary for the operation of the Company’s business, including, without limitation, in order to make additional
investments in Holdco (in each case, an “Additional Funding Requirement”) or to pay, or to reimburse
Guarantor (as defined below) for, any Guaranty Liability (as defined below) (subject to Section 18(b) hereof), then the Managing
Member shall submit to the Members a written notice (a “Capital Demand Notice”), which Capital Demand
Notice shall set forth (i) the anticipated amount of, and the reason for, such Additional Funding Requirement, (ii) each Member’s
required share of such Additional Funding Requirement, and (iii) the due date for such Additional Funding Requirement (the “Capital
Demand Due Date”), which due date shall not be earlier than ten (10) days following the date such Capital Demand
Notice is delivered to the Members. Each Member shall be obligated to contribute its proportionate share (based on its respective
Percentage Interest) of any Additional Funding Requirement called for in a Capital Demand Notice. If any Member (a “Non-Contributing
Member”) refuses or fails to make all or any portion of its share of an Additional Funding Requirement pursuant to
this Section 9(c) on or prior to the applicable Capital Demand Due Date, then, provided that any Member shall have made
its corresponding share of such Additional Funding Requirement, such refusal or failure shall constitute a default by such Non-Contributing
Member and each of the Deciding Members shall have the right to advance all or a portion of such Non-Contributing Member’s
unpaid share of such Additional Funding Requirement to the Company (provided that if both Deciding Members elect to advance such
Non-Contributing Member’s unpaid share of such Additional Funding Requirement, then each Deciding Member shall advance its
pro rata share (based on their respective Percentage Interests) of such Non-Contributing Member’s unpaid share of
such Additional Funding Requirement) on behalf of such Non-Contributing Member (such contributing Deciding Member, a “Contributing
Member”), which advance shall be treated as a loan by such Contributing Member to the Non-Contributing Member (a
“Member Loan”) at an interest rate equal to the lesser of twelve percent (12%) per annum, compounded
quarterly, and the then maximum allowable rate permitted by law. To the extent not repaid directly by such Non- Contributing Member,
each Member Loan shall be repaid out of any subsequent distributions made pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement to which
the Non-Contributing Member for whose account such Member Loan was made would otherwise be entitled under this Agreement prior
to any other distributions being made to such Non-Contributing Member (but such distributions actually paid to the Contributing
Member shall, nonetheless, constitute a distribution to such Non-Contributing Member for purposes of this Agreement) and such payments
shall be applied first to the payment of accrued but unpaid interest on each such Member Loan and then to the payment of the outstanding
principal, until such Member Loan is paid in full.


 




    	 	3	 



     


    

 


(d)           If any Member
Loan remains outstanding for more than ninety (90) days, then the Contributing Member that made such Member Loan may convert such
Member Loan to a capital contribution in the amount of such Member Loan (including all accrued interest thereon) (a “Default
Contribution”). Upon such conversion, the Percentage Interest of the Non-Contributing Member shall be decreased such
that, immediately after such decrease, the Percentage Interest of the Non-Contributing Member shall be a percentage equal to its
Percentage Interest immediately prior to such decrease, less a percentage expressed as a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is
one hundred fifty percent (150%), multiplied by the amount of the Default Contribution, and (B) the denominator of which is the
aggregate amount of the capital contributions made by all of the Members prior to or as of such date (including such Default Contribution).
Concomitantly, the Percentage Interest of the Contributing Member shall be increased by the same amount by which the Percentage
Interest of the Non-Contributing Member was decreased pursuant to the foregoing sentence.


 


(e)           Except
as expressly provided in this Agreement or with the prior written consent of all the Members, no Member shall be required or
entitled to contribute any other or further capital to the Company, nor shall any Member be required or entitled to loan any
funds to the Company (provided, however, that for these purposes, amounts properly incurred by the Managing Member which are
reimbursable by the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall not be deemed loans). No
Member will have any obligation to restore any negative or deficit balance in its Capital Account (as defined on Exhibit A)
upon liquidation or dissolution of the Company (and for purposes of this Section 9(e), Capital Account shall be deemed
to also include the capital account of any Member for financial or book purposes or as set forth in the Act or under common
law). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, nothing contained herein will, or is intended or
will be deemed to benefit any creditor of the Company, or any limited liability company, limited partnership, corporation,
trust or similar entity wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company (each, a “Subsidiary”,
and together, “Subsidiaries”), including, without limitation, Holdco and Property Owner, or any
creditor of any Member, and no such creditor shall have any rights, interests or claims hereunder, be entitled to any
benefits or be entitled to require the Company, the Deciding Members or any Member to demand, solicit or accept any loan,
advance or additional capital contribution for or to the Company or any Subsidiary or to enforce any rights which the
Company, any Subsidiary or any Member may have against any other Member or which any Member may have against the Company or
Subsidiary, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

(a)           The Managing
Member shall have no fiduciary duty to any other Member; the obligations and liabilities of the Managing Member to the Company
or any other Member are as expressly set forth in this Agreement without reference to any duties or obligations implied or set
forth in case law or statute.


 


(b)           Unless otherwise
expressly provided herein, (i) whenever a conflict of interest exists or arises between Members, or (ii) whenever this Agreement
or any other agreement contemplated herein or therein provides that a Member shall act in a manner that is, or provides terms that
are, fair and reasonable to the Company or any Member, the Member shall resolve such conflict of interest, taking such action or
providing such terms, considering in each case the relative interest of each party (including its own interest) to such conflict,
agreement, transaction or situation and the benefits and burdens relating to such interests, any customary or accepted industry
practices, and any applicable generally accepted accounting practices or principles. In the absence of bad faith by a Member, the
resolution, action or term so made, taken or provided by such Member shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any other
agreement contemplated herein or of any duty or obligation of such Member at law, in equity or otherwise.


 


(c)           Whenever in this
Agreement a Member is permitted or required to make a decision (i) in its “discretion” or under a grant of similar
authority or latitude, such Member shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests,
and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Company or any other
Person, or (ii) in its “good faith” or under another express standard, such Member shall act under such express standard
and shall not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Agreement or other applicable law.


 


(d)           Each Member and
any person or entity affiliated with any of the Members may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures (unconnected
with the Company) of every kind and description, independently or with others. None of the Company or the other Members shall have
any rights in or to such independent ventures or the income or profits therefrom by virtue of this Agreement.


 


17. Limitation
on Powers of Members. The Managing Member shall have the power to do any and all acts necessary or convenient for the purposes
herein, subject to obtaining the REIT Member’s consent with respect to any Major Decisions. No Non-Managing Member shall
have the authority, without the approval of the Deciding Members, to file or consent to the filing of a bankruptcy petition or
otherwise institute an insolvency proceeding on behalf of the Company. Each Non-Managing Member covenants not to file or commence
any bankruptcy or other insolvency petition against the Company.

18. Exculpation and Indemnification.


 


(a)           Subject to the
terms of Section 18(b) below, neither the Authorized Person, the Managing Member, nor any Officer or Member shall be liable to
the Company, any other Members or Officers or any other person or entity who has an interest in the Company for any loss, damage
or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Authorized Person, Managing Member, Officer or
Member in good faith in connection with the formation of the Company or on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed
to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Authorized Person, Managing Member, Officer or Member by this Agreement,
except that the Managing Member, an Officer or a Member shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of
such Managing Member’s, Officer’s or Member’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. To the full extent permitted
by applicable law, each Authorized Person, the Managing Member, each Officer and each Member shall be entitled to indemnification
from the Company for any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Authorized Person, Managing Member, Officer or Member by reason
of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Authorized Person, Managing Member, Officer or Member in good faith on behalf
of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Authorized Person,
Managing Member, Officer or Member by this Agreement, except that no Managing Member, Officer or Member shall be entitled to be
indemnified in respect of any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Managing Member, Officer or Member by reason of gross negligence
or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions; provided, however, that any indemnity under this Section
18(a) shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company assets only, and no Member shall have personal liability on account
thereof.


 


(b)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that the Guarantor shall incur any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising from the Guarantor’s
obligations with respect to any Guaranty (including, without limitation, in connection with the existing construction loan by Bank
of the Ozarks (“BO”) to Property Owner) (“Guaranty Liability”), then, in any
such event, (x) the REIT Member shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Guarantor for REIT Member’s pro rata share
(based on REIT Member’s Percentage Interest) of such Guaranty Liability, (y) the REIT Member shall have no such obligation
to indemnify the Guarantor if the Guarantor incurs any Guaranty Liability and the act and/or omission giving rise to such Guaranty
Liability (1) constitutes the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Managing Member and/or any of its affiliates
(other than REIT Member), or (2) was taken or omitted by the Managing Member and/or any of its affiliates (other than REIT Member)
in violation of the terms of this Agreement, unless, in either case, such act or omission was taken or not taken with the prior
written consent of the REIT Member or its affiliates, and (z) the REIT Member shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Guarantor
for 100% of any and all Guaranty Liability if the Guarantor incurs any such Guaranty Liability and the act and/or omission giving
rise to such Guaranty Liability constitutes gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the REIT Member, and/or any of
its affiliates (other than SAYT Member and any of its direct or indirect members), or (2) was taken or omitted by REIT Member and/or
any of its affiliates (other than SAYT Member and any of its direct or indirect members) in violation of the terms of this Agreement,
unless, in either case, such act or omission was taken or not taken with the prior written consent of the Managing Member.


 


19. Liability
of Members. No Member or its affiliate shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Company or
any Member for any action taken or failure to act on behalf of the Company reasonably believed by such Member to be within the
scope of the authority conferred on such Member by this Agreement or by law, unless such action or omission was performed or omitted
in bad faith or constituted gross negligence, or willful misconduct.

20. Assignments; Transfers.


 


(a)           No Member may
Transfer in whole or in part its limited liability company interest in the Company without the written consent of the Deciding
Members, which consent may be granted or withheld in the Deciding Members’ sole discretion. As used herein, “Transfer”
shall mean any direct or indirect sale, exchange, issuance, redemption, assignment, distribution, gift, retirement, resignation,
transfer or other withdrawal, disposition or alienation in any way as to any interest of or within a Member.


 


(b)           If a Member transfers
all of its direct interest in the Company pursuant to this Section 20, the transferee shall be admitted to the Company upon
its execution of an instrument signifying its agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Such admission
shall be deemed effective immediately prior to the Transfer, and, immediately following such admission, the transferor Member shall
cease to be a member of the Company.


 


(c)           It is expressly
understood and agreed that any Transfer permitted pursuant to this Section 20 shall in all instances be prohibited (and,
if consummated, shall be void ab initio) if such Transfer does not comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations
and other requirements of Governmental Authorities, including, without limitation, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s
Office of Foreign Assets Control, and any enabling legislation or other executive orders in respect thereof. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement (including, without limitation under Section 20(a)), but subject to
Section 20(b) and the immediately preceding sentence in this Section 20(c), the following Transfers shall be permitted without
the consent of any Member:


 


(i)           any Transfer
(i) by devise, bequest or operation of law, upon the death or incapacity of a natural person, to such natural person’s spouse,
brothers, sisters, children (natural or adopted), stepchildren (natural or adopted), grandchildren (natural or adopted), or any
of their respective spouses or domestic partners (“Immediate Family Members”), and (ii) in connection
with any estate-planning purposes, to or for the benefit of the transferor’s Immediate Family Members or a trust established
for the benefit of the transferor and/or any of such transferor’s Immediate Family Members;


 


(ii)          any
Transfer by either of the Deciding Members to their respective affiliate(s); and


 


(iii)          any Transfers
by the Managing Member to a bona fide third-party that is not an affiliate of SAYT Member (a “Bona Fide Purchaser”),
provided that (x) the provisions of Section 20(e) hereof are satisfied, (y) David Lichtenstein maintains, directly or indirectly,
control of, and ownership of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the equity interests in, SAYT Member, and (z) such transferee
agrees to be bound by all the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement (including the provisions of this Section 20).


 


(iv)        any
Transfer of publicly traded shares in any direct or indirect equity owner in any Member.


 




    	 	13	 



     


    

 


(d)           Drag-Along.
Upon the Managing Member receiving an offer acceptable to the Managing Member to sell some or all of the Managing Member’s
interest in the Company (such interests proposed to be sold, the “Managing Member Transfer Interests”)
to a Bona Fide Purchaser, the Managing Member shall have the right (the “Drag-Along Right”), exercisable
in the Managing Member’s sole discretion, to require each Non-Managing Member to sell to such Bona Fide Purchaser a share
of such Non-Managing Member’s interests in the Company (such share of the Non-Managing Member’s interests, its “Drag/Tag
Interests”) proportionate to the share of the Managing Member’s interests in the Company represented by the
Managing Member Transfer Interests, pursuant to and in accordance with such terms and conditions agreed between the Managing Member
and such Bona Fide Purchaser. If the Managing Member elects to exercise the Drag-Along Right, then the Managing Member shall provide
each Non-Managing Member with a notice which shall include (i) a statement that the Managing Member is exercising the Drag-Along
Right, (ii) the share of the Managing Member’s interest in the Company proposed to be sold, (iii) the purchase price at which
such Bona Fide Purchaser has proposed to purchase the Managing Member Transfer Interests and a calculation of the purchase price
to be paid by such Bona Fide Purchaser for such Non-Managing Member’s Drag/Tag Interests, and (iv) the closing date for such
sale (which shall be no sooner than ten (10) days following the date of such notice). The purchase price for each Non-Managing
Member’s Drag/Tag Interests shall equal the distributions that such Non-Managing Member would have received, assuming that
the aggregate purchase price for the Managing Member Transfer Interests and all Drag/Tag Interests was distributed to the Managing
Member and the Non- Managing Members pro rata and pari passu in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests
(subject to Section 9(c)), for the Managing Member to have received distributions equal to the purchase price that the Managing
Member is receiving from the Bona Fide Purchaser for the Managing Member Transfer Interests.


 


(e)           Tag-Along.
Upon the Managing Member receiving an offer acceptable to the Managing Member to sell Managing Member Transfer Interests to Bona
Fide Purchaser, the Managing Member shall provide REIT Member and, if the Managing Member has not exercised the Drag-Along Right
with respect to any Transfer described in Section 20(c)(iii) above, each Non-Managing Member with written notice of its
intent to effect such Transfer, and REIT Member and, as applicable, each such Non-Managing Member shall have the right (the “Tag-
Along Right”), exercisable by the delivery of written notice during the ten (10) day period (the “Tag-Along
Option Period”) immediately following the date that such notice from the Managing Member is received by REIT Member
and, as applicable, such Non-Managing Member, to require the Bona Fide Purchaser to purchase REIT Member’s or, as applicable,
such Non-Managing Member’s share of REIT Member’s or, as applicable, such Non-Managing Member’s interests in
the Company (such share of REIT Member’s or, as applicable, the Non- Managing Member’s interests, its “Tag
Interests” and, together with the Drag Interests, collectively and generally, “Drag/Tag Interests”)
proportionate to the share of the Managing Member’s interests in the Company represented by the Managing Member Transfer
Interests, in addition to the Managing Member Transfer Interests. If (i) REIT Member or any Non-Managing Member fails to exercise
the Tag-Along Right during the Tag-Along Option Period, or (ii) REIT Member and/or any Non-Managing Member notifies the Managing
Member in writing, during the Tag Along Option Period, that REIT Member or such Non-Managing Member, as applicable will not exercise
the Tag-Along Right, then the Managing Member may sell the Managing Member Transfer Interests to the Bona Fide Purchaser free of
REIT Member’s or such Non- Managing Member’s Tag-Along Right, as applicable.


 




    	 	14	 



     


    

 


(f)           Terms of Drag-Along
or Tag-Along. If either the Drag-Along Right or the Tag-Along Right is timely exercised in accordance with Section 20(d)
or 20(e), then the following provisions shall apply:


 


(i)           The sale
of the Managing Member Transfer Interests and REIT Member’s and/or each applicable Non-Managing Member’s (as the case
may be, the “Drag/Tag Member”) Drag/Tag Interests shall be consummated simultaneously and the proceeds
attributable to such sale of the Managing Member’s and each Drag/Tag Member’s interests shall be paid simultaneously
to the Managing Member and each Drag/Tag Member;


 


(ii)           The sale
of the Managing Member Transfer Interests and the Drag/Tag Interests shall occur on a date specified by the Managing Member;


 


(iii)           Each
Drag/Tag Member hereby irrevocably appoints the Managing Member as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to execute all
documents, agreements and instruments which the Managing Member may reasonably request to consummate the conveyance of the Drag/Tag
Interests in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof;


 


(iv)          Each Drag/Tag
Member shall be deemed to represent and warrant to the Bona Fide Purchaser (and shall sign (or, at the election of the Managing
Member, hereby appoints the Managing Member to sign) a certification reasonably requested by the Managing Member or the Bona Fide
Purchaser reflecting same), on and as of the date of closing of such Transfer, that (A) such Drag/Tag Member is the sole owner
of its Drag/Tag Interests and holds its Drag/Tag Interests free and clear of any liens or other encumbrances (other than any liens
or other encumbrances to which the Managing Member’s interest in the Company is also subject), and (B) such Drag/Tag Member
has all requisite power and authority to sell its Drag/Tag Interests to the Bona Fide Purchaser in accordance with this Section
20(f);


 


(v)           Each Drag/Tag
Member shall bear its respective pro rata share of all closing costs and deliver its respective pro rata share of
all closing escrow funds, reserves and similar closing obligations; and


 


(vi)           If any Drag/Tag
Member fails to transfer its Drag/Tag Interests in accordance with this Section 20(f), then the Managing Member and the
Company shall have all rights and remedies available pursuant to law and in equity, including, without limitation, the right to
specific performance and to bring an action for damages against such Drag/Tag Member.


 


21. Books
and Records. Managing Member shall maintain proper and complete books of account and records with respect to the
Company, each Subsidiary, the Project, the Property and all related business activities thereof. Managing Member shall
maintain the books and records of the Company at the Company’s principal place of business as set forth in Section
4. Managing Member covenants and agrees that all books and records of the Company shall be open to and made available for
inspection and copy by any Member and such Member’s representatives at any time during normal business hours within
three (3) Business Days after receipt by Managing Member of a written request for such access from such Member. For the
purposes of this Section 21, “Business Days” shall mean “Monday through Friday of each week, except
that a legal holiday recognized as such by the Government of the United States, the State of Delaware or the State of New
York shall not be regarded as a Business Day.”


 




    	 	15	 



     


    

 


22.Resignation.
No Member may resign from the Company without the written consent of the Deciding Members. If a Member elects to resign
pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 22, an additional member may be admitted to the Company, subject to Section
20, upon its execution of an instrument signifying its agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. Such admission shall be deemed effective immediately prior to the resignation, and, immediately following such
admission, the resigning Member shall cease to be a member of the Company.


 


23. Admission
of Additional Members. One (1) or more additional members of the Company may be admitted to the Company with the written consent
of the Deciding Members.


 


24. Dissolution.


 


(a)           The Company shall
dissolve, and its affairs shall be wound up, upon the first to occur of the following: (i) the written consent of the Deciding
Members, or (ii) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under the Act.


 


(b)           In the event
of dissolution, the Company shall conduct only such activities as are necessary to wind up its affairs (including the sale of the
assets of the Company in an orderly manner), and the assets of the Company shall be applied in the manner, and in the order of
priority, set forth in the Act.


 


25. Waiver of
Partition; Nature of Interest. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, each of the Members hereby irrevocably waives any right or power that they might have to institute any proceeding at law or
in equity to cause the dissolution, liquidation, winding up or termination of the Company. The Members shall not have any interest
in any specific assets of the Company, and the Members shall not have the status of a creditor with respect to any distribution
pursuant to Section 12(a) hereof. The interest of the Members in the Company is personal property.


 


26. Attorneys’
Fees. If the Company or any Member obtains a judgment against any other Member by reason of breach of this Agreement
or failure to comply with the provisions hereof, reasonable attorneys’ fees as fixed by the court shall be included in such
judgment.


 


27.Benefits of
Agreement; No Third Party Rights. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any
creditor of the Company or by any creditor of any Member. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create any right in any
person or entity (other than such persons or entities as are entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 18 hereof) not
a party hereto, and this Agreement shall not be construed in any respect to be a contract in whole or in part for the benefit of
any third person (other than such persons or entities as are entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 18 hereof).


 


28. Separability
of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered separable and if for any reason any provision or provisions
herein are determined to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal under any existing or future law, such invalidity, unenforceability
or illegality shall not impair the operation of or affect those portions of this Agreement which are valid, enforceable and legal.


 




    	 	16	 



     


    

 


29. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which taken
together shall constitute a single instrument.


 


30. Entire Agreement.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes
all prior understandings or agreements between the parties.


 


31. Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed under, the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard to conflict
of laws principles), all rights and remedies being governed by said laws.


 


32. Amendments.
This Agreement may not be modified, altered, supplemented or amended except pursuant to a written agreement executed and delivered
by the Deciding Members; provided, however, that any modification, alteration, supplement or amendment that increases
the obligations or reduces the rights of any Non-Managing Member hereunder (other than to a de minimis extent) shall also
require the prior written consent of such Non-Managing Member.
