Capital Contributions. Notwithstanding anything stated herein to the contrary, the 20% Units and rights arising in connection
therewith under this Agreement shall be NON-DILUTABLE until the Buyer Performance Date, such that, in the event and to
the extent that Buyer or Attis make a Capital Contribution hereunder from and after the Closing Date (excluding any amounts due

to the Company prior to the Buyer Performance Date.

if issued prior to the Buyer Performance Date or (ii) majority vote of Members based upon Units, if issued after the Buyer Performance

Committee, and all Units and certificates shall be recorded in a register that will record the issuance and transfer thereof,
and shall be subject to such rules for issuance thereof as the Management Committee may from time to time determine in accordance
with this Agreement.


 


5.3 Capital
Calls.


 


5.3.1 General.
Subject to the exclusions stated herein involving the 20% Units, the Members shall have the right, upon a Super Majority Vote
of the Members, and upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, to call for all of the Members to make additional Capital
Contributions in such amounts as the Members shall determine to be necessary for the successful operation of the Company’s
business (“Capital Call”). Each Member shall be liable for such Member’s pro rata share of such Capital
Call based on the Percentage Interest of the Member at the time the Capital Call notice is issued.


 


5.3.2 Capital
Call Default. If a Member fails to make a Capital Contribution in response to a Capital Call under this Article, the Management
Committee shall give written notice to such Defaulting Member of default (“Capital Call Default Notice”). If
the full amount of such additional Capital Call is not received by the Company within three (3) business days after the delivery
of such Capital Call Default Notice, then, without limitation to Article 11, such Member shall be a Defaulting Member and the
following provisions shall apply with respect to such Defaulting Member:


 


(i) The
Management Committee may cause to be deducted from any amounts otherwise distributable to the Defaulting Member the amount of
such deficiency, plus an amount computed as interest at the prime rate then being charged by the principal bank of the Company
plus three percent (3%) per annum, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less, on the deficiency until such amount
is paid in full.


 


(ii) The
Defaulting Member shall remain fully liable to the Company to the full extent of any unpaid Capital Call plus interest at the
prime rate then being charged by the principal bank of the Company plus three percent (3%) per annum, or the maximum rate permitted
by law, whichever is less, from the date of default until the obligation is satisfied.


 


(iii) No
right, power or remedy conferred upon the Company or the Management Committee in this Section shall be exclusive, and each such
right, power, or remedy, whether conferred in this Section or now or hereafter available at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise. No course of dealing between the Company and any Defaulting Member and no delay in the exercise of any right, power
or remedy conferred in this Section or now or hereafter existing shall operate as a waiver or otherwise prejudice any such right
or power.


 


5.4 Interest
On and Return of Capital Contributions. No Member shall have the right to demand or receive the return of all or part of such
Member’s Capital Contribution, except as provided in Article X; provided, however, that the Management Committee may authorize
the return of capital to the Members in such amounts as may be necessary from time to time to cause all of the Members’
Net Capital Contributions to be in proportion to their Percentage Interest. No Member shall be entitled to interest on its Capital
Contribution. Neither the Management Committee nor any Member shall have any personal liability for the repayment of any Member’s
Capital Contribution or any returns thereon.

Offeree shall have a right of first refusal with regard to the Offer pursuant to the following conditions:


 


(a) The
Offeree shall have sixty (60) days from the date of the Offeror’s notice to notify the Offeror in writing of its decision as to
whether or not to exercise its right of first refusal to acquire all (but not less than all) of the Units subject to the Offer.


 


(b) If
the Offeree exercises such right within such 60-day period, then the Disposition shall be completed within the following sixty
(60) days after the exercise of such notice, under the terms and conditions contained in the Offer, provided that the Offeree
may elect to pay cash in lieu of non-cash payments offered by the Third Person Purchaser.


 


(c) If
the Offeree does not exercise such right within such 60-day period, or if such Disposition to the Offeree is not completed within
such following 60-day period, then the Offeror may proceed to sell its Units to the Third Person Purchaser on terms and conditions
no more favorable to such Third Person Purchaser than those contained in the Offer, provided that such sale is consummated within
sixty (60) days after the Offeror is authorized to proceed and the Third Person Purchaser complies with the provisions set out
in Sections 10.3.


 


(d) Upon
the Disposition of a Member’s Units and the execution by the

Disposee of this Agreement, the Disposee shall be admitted as a Member at the time the Disposition is completed.


 


10.3 Admission
of Additional Members. A Person who is to become a Member must agree to abide by the terms of this Agreement and must execute
a copy hereof prior to actually becoming a Member. Once a Person becomes a Member, such Person shall be considered a Member for
all purposes of this Agreement and the Members shall cause this Agreement, including Exhibit A, to be amended, as
necessary, to reflect such new Member.


 


10.4 Restraining
Order. If any Member shall at any time Encumber or Dispose or attempt to Encumber or Dispose of its Unit or any part thereof
in violation of the provisions of this Agreement, then the other Member(s) shall, in addition to all rights and remedies at law
and in equity, be entitled to a decree or order restraining and enjoining such Encumbrance or Disposition, and the offending Member
agrees not to plead in defense thereto that there would be an adequate remedy at law. The Members expressly acknowledge and agree
that damages at law would be an inadequate remedy for a breach or threatened breach of the violation of the provisions concerning
Encumbrances and Disposition set forth in this Agreement. Any attempt to Encumber or Dispose of any Unit in violation of this
Agreement shall be null and void.


 


10.5 Exempt
Transfers. Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary herein, transfers of the Company’s Units shall be permitted
in connection with the applicable security interests referenced in Section 4.6 hereof.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a Covered Person shall be entitled to indemnification from the Company

CONFIDENTIALITY


 


13.1 Confidentiality
Obligation. In recognition of the Company’s and each Member’s need to protect its respective legitimate
business interests, each Member covenants and agrees that it shall regard and treat each item of information or data
constituting a Trade Secret or Confidential Information of either the Company or any and all other Member(s) as strictly
confidential and wholly owned by the Company or such other Member, and that it will not use, distribute, disclose, reproduce
or otherwise communicate any such item of information or data to any Person for any purpose other than in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement or with the written consent of the Company and/or Member having the Trade Secret or Confidential
Information. The covenant contained in the preceding sentence shall apply: (i) with respect to Confidential Information, at
all times during the Term of the Company and for a period of three (3) years thereafter; and (ii) with respect to Trade
Secrets, at all times such data or information remains a “trade secret” under applicable Law.


 


13.2 Permitted
Disclosures. A Member may disclose Confidential Information and Trade Secrets of the Company or the other Member to those

ensuring the continued confidentiality of all Trade Secrets and Confidential Information of the Company or other Member known
by, disclosed or made available to such of its officers, directors, employees, agents, independent contractors and advisors in
connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, instructing its officers, employees, independent contractors, agents
and advisors to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information and Trade Secrets and obtaining written confidentiality
agreements where practicable or as requested by the other Member.


 


13.3 Required
Disclosures. If a Member becomes legally required to disclose any Confidential Information or Trade Secrets of the Company
or the other Member (whether by judicial or administrative order, applicable law, rule or regulation, applicable rules of any
stock exchange, or otherwise), such Member will use its reasonable efforts to provide the Company or the other Member, as applicable,
with prior notice thereof so that the Company or the other Member, as applicable, may seek a protective order or other appropriate
remedy to prevent such disclosure; provided, however, that such Member will use all reasonable efforts (at the other Member’s
or the Company’s expense, as applicable,) to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information and Trade Secrets.
If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained prior to the time such disclosure is required, such Member will only
disclose that portion of such Confidential Information and Trade Secrets which it is legally required to disclose.


 


13.4 Return
of Confidential Information. Upon ceasing to be a Member in the Company, such prior Member shall return to the Company or
the other Member(s), as applicable, all copies, versions or abstracts of written or descriptive materials of any kind that contain
or discuss any Confidential Information or Trade Secrets of the Company or such other Member(s), as applicable, respectively,
and the confidentiality obligations of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
