 ARTICLE VII 
 RIGHTS AND RESTRICTIONS OF MEMBERS 
 Section 7.1 Members’ Preemptive Rights. Each Member, and only a Member, shall have a preemptive right for a period of THIRTY
(30) days to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any Membership Interest or any other equity and/or voting interest in the Company that the Company and/or the Board of Managers at any time proposes to issue and/or sell or any right or
option that the Company and/or the Board of Managers proposes to grant for the purchase of Membership Interests or any other equity and/or voting interest in the Company or for the purchase of documents, instruments, bonds, securities or obligations
of the Company that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that carry rights to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire, Membership Interests or any other equity and/or voting interest in the Company, whether now or hereafter authorized
or created, and whether the proposed issuance, sale or grant is for cash, property or any other lawful consideration. The Company shall transmit written notice (the “Preemptive Rights Notice”) to every Member of any such proposed issuance,
sale or grant of Membership Interests, other interests, rights or options (collectively, “New Securities”), stating (a) the exact amount and type of New Securities proposed to be issued, sold or granted, (b) the amount of the
purchase price per New Security and for the total number of New Securities proposed to be issued, sold or granted and (c) the terms of the proposed issuance, sale or grant. Within THIRTY (30) days after the date of the Company’s
transmission of the Preemptive Rights Notice, any of the Members that desires to acquire all or any portion of the New Securities proposed to be issued, sold or granted (as specified in the Preemptive Rights Notice) shall deliver to the Company a
written election to purchase such New Securities or a specified number thereof. If the total number of New Securities specified in such elections exceeds the number of New Securities to be issued, sold or granted (as specified in the Preemptive
Rights Notice), then each such Member shall have priority, up to the number of New Securities specified in such Member’s notice of election to purchase, to purchase such proportion of the New Securities to be issued, sold or granted (as
specified in the Preemptive Rights Notice) as the Membership Voting Interests that such Member holds bears to the total Membership Voting Interests held by all of the Members electing to purchase. If New Securities out of the total number of the New
Securities proposed to be issued, sold or granted (as specified in the Preemptive Rights Notice) remain after the application of the foregoing formula, then such remaining New Securities shall be allocated among the Members that have not received
the number of New Securities specified in their notices of election to purchase in the proportion that the number of New Securities specified in each individual Member’s notice of election to purchase less the number 

  

 21 








 
of New Securities allocated to that Member under the foregoing formula bears to the total number of New Securities in all such elections to purchase less all
New Securities allocated to Members under the foregoing formula. If the Members do not purchase the total number of New Securities to be issued, sold or granted (as specified in the Preemptive Rights Notice) within the above-referenced THIRTY
(30) day period, then, after the expiration of such THIRTY (30) day period, but subject to all of the terms and provisions of this Section 7.1 and all other applicable terms and provisions of this Operating Agreement, such New
Securities not purchased by the Members, but only such New Securities, may be issued, sold or granted by the Board of Managers, as the case may be, to such persons, entities, corporations, partnerships and associations as the Board of Managers in
its discretion may determine, but only for the purchase price per New Security and under the exact terms specified in the Preemptive Rights Notice. If any Member transfers all or any portion of such Member’s Membership Interest to a person who
by reason of such transfer becomes an Interest Holder but is not admitted as a Member in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 14.2 or Section 14.5 of this Operating Agreement, then such Transferring Member shall continue to
be a Member and retain all of the preemptive rights provided by this Section 7.1 theretofore associated with such transferred Membership Interest until such time (if any) as the transferee Interest Holder of such transferred Membership Interest
(or such transferee Interest Holder’s successor in interest) is admitted to the Company as a Member in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 14.2 of this Operating Agreement. In every such case, the Transferring Member shall
continue to be a Member and retain the preemptive rights provided by this Section 7.1 theretofore associated with the transferred Membership Interest of such Member even if such Member so has transferred such Member’s entire Membership
Interest to one or more assignees. The preemptive rights terms and provisions of this Section 7.1 cannot be amended or repealed unless such amendment or repeal first has been approved by the affirmative vote or written consent of the Members
holding ONE HUNDRED PERCENT (100%) of the outstanding Membership Voting Interests. The preemptive rights terms and provisions of this Section 7.1 shall not apply to any transaction that is effected or proposed to be effected by the Company
under any of subparagraphs (i) through (n), inclusive, of Section 5.4 of this Operating Agreement or under Section 9.4 of this Operating Agreement. 
 Section 7.2 Public Offerings of Securities. Provided that, in accordance with the terms and provisions of subparagraphs (k) and (l) of Section 5.9 of this Operating Agreement, it first has
been reasonably proposed (a) that the Company (or any parent or successor entity of the Company) effect the registration and/or qualification of equity securities of the Company (or of any parent or successor entity of the Company) with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and state securities administrators for the purpose of effecting an initial public offering of such securities and (b) that the Company (or any parent or successor entity of the Company) effect an initial
public offering of equity securities of the Company (or of any parent or successor entity of the Company), and the Members holding more than SIXTY-FIVE PERCENT (65%) of the outstanding Membership Voting Interests have failed or refused to
authorize or approve such proposal within THIRTY (30) days after such proposal is made, any Member that at that time is not a publicly-traded entity shall have the unrestricted right within SIX (6) months after such THIRTY (30) day
period to commence the registration and/or qualification of equity securities of such Member with the Securities and Exchange Commission and state securities administrators for the purpose of effecting an initial public offering of such securities
and to commence an initial public offering of such securities of such Member. At any time and from time to time after the consummation of any such initial public offering of a Member’s equity securities, such Member shall have the unrestricted
right to commence and effect additional public offerings of securities of any class of such Member as such Member in its sole and absolute discretion deems appropriate. Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this 

  

 22

 Section 9.3 Subsequent Capital Contributions. Subject to the prior approval of the
vote or written consent of Members holding SEVENTY-FIVE PERCENT (75%) of the outstanding Membership Voting Interests at any time and from time to time, the Board of Managers may request, but not require, that every Member and Interest Holder
make additional contributions of capital to the Company. Each such request made to every Member and Interest Holder initially shall be for such proportion of the total additional contribution of capital requested from all of the Members and the
Interest Holders as the Membership Interest that such Member or Interest Holder holds bears to the total Membership Interests held by all of the Members and the Interest Holders. If all of the Members and the Interest Holders do not make additional
contributions of capital to the Company within TEN (10) days after being so requested, then those Members and Interest Holders who make such additional contributions of capital to the Company within that period (the “Contributing Members
and Interest Holders”) collectively and individually shall have the right and option within TEN (10) days after such initial TEN (10) day period to make more additional contributions of capital to the Company up to the total amount of
contributions of capital to the Company requested in accordance with the foregoing but not made (the “Uncontributed Amount”), each Contributing Member and Interest Holder individually (a) first in such proportion of the total
Uncontributed Amount as the Membership Interest that each Contributing Member or Interest Holder holds bears to the total 

  

 26 








 
Membership Interests held by all of the Contributing Members and Interest Holders but (b) ultimately in such proportion of the total Uncontributed
Amount as the Membership Interest that each Contributing Member or Interest Holder electing to exercise such right and option holds bears to the total Membership Interests held by all of the Contributing Members and Interest Holders electing to
exercise such right and option. The foregoing formula contemplates the possibility that, within such second TEN (10) day period, any ONE (1) of the Contributing Members or Interest Holders individually (if no other Contributing Member or
Interest Holder elects to contribute any part of the Uncontributed Amount in accordance with the foregoing formula) may make an additional contribution of capital to the Company equaling the entire Uncontributed Amount. If certain Members and
Interest Holders elect to make additional contributions of capital to the Company upon request in accordance with the foregoing terms and provisions, and certain other Members and Interest Holders elect not to make additional contributions of
capital to the Company upon request in accordance with the foregoing terms and provisions, then the Membership Interests of Members and Interest Holders who elect to make such additional contributions of capital to the Company shall increase
accordingly, and the Membership Interests of Members and Interest Holders who elect not to make such additional contributions of capital to the Company shall be diluted in accordance with the Members’ aggregate capital contributions (with the
capital contributions as of the date hereof as set forth on Schedule A attached hereto. The Board of Managers has no authority to, and shall not, request that any Member or Interest Holder make an additional contribution of capital to the Company
except in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Section 9.3. 
 Section 9.4 NGA Additional Interests. Except as
otherwise provided in this Section 9.4 and 9.5, the holder of the NGA Additional Interests shall have all rights, obligations, limitations and restrictions as all other Members and holders of Membership Interests. The Majority NGA Holder(s)

otherwise provided herein, Reeg shall continue to serve as the designated representative of NGA, unless replaced by NGA, so long as NGA or an Affiliate of NGA remains a Member of the Company. In the event of the death or disability of Reeg or the
termination or resignation of Reeg as a representative of NGA, NGA shall designate a replacement representative to Reeg which designation shall be subject to the Company’s consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If, for any
reason, the designated representative of NGA is determined by any applicable gaming authority, including without limitation the Nevada Gaming Authorities, not to be suitable or qualified to be a Manager of the Company, NGA will be entitled to
nominate a replacement Manager. 
 Section 9.5 NGA Specific Rights. All NGA’s Membership Interests shall be subject to the
buy-sell rights, the transfer restrictions and provisions as provided in this Section 9.5. The buy-sell rights become exercisable only upon the occurrence of a Material Event (as defined below) or at any time after June 14, 2015
(“Trigger Date”).

Date, the Majority NGA Holder shall have the right to sell (“Put”) all but not less than all of its NGA Additional Interests to Company and Company shall have the right to purchase (“Call”) all but not less than all of NGA’s
Membership Interest, at a price equal to the fair market value of the NGA Additional Interests and/or NGA’s Membership Interest without discounts for minority ownership and lack of marketability. The purchase price shall be determined by mutual

 27 








 
THIRTY (30) days after delivery of the Option Notice (as defined below) (the “Negotiation Period”) the Company and NGA have not mutually
agreed on a purchase price for the NGA Interests, then the purchase price shall be determined by the average of two (2) appraisals by nationally recognized appraisers of private companies with one appraisal obtained and paid for by NGA and one
appraisal obtained and paid for by the Company, if and only if such appraisals are within a 5% range of value based upon the lowest of such appraisals. If the referenced two appraisals are not within a 5% range, the purchase price shall be
determined by the average of a third mutually acceptable, independent, nationally recognized appraiser of private companies (with NGA and Company to each pay one-half of costs) and the next nearest appraisal of the two appraisals engaged by each of
the parties unless the third appraisal is at the mid-point of the original two appraisals, in which event the third appraisal shall be used to established the fair market value. The selection of such appraisers shall occur no later than THIRTY
(30) days after termination of the Negotiation Period. Either NGA or the Company, as the case may be, shall deliver written notice to the other party initiating its applicable Put or Call rights under this Section 9.5 (the “Option
Notice”).

Operating Agreement including but not limited to the Put and Call provisions set forth in this Section 9.5 and subject to the consent of the Company which shall not be unreasonably withheld and so long as the Company’s right to exercise
its Call rights are not materially impaired.

assigns shall have the right to unilaterally extend the Trigger Date for two one-year extension periods. This right shall be exercised by giving written notice of the extension of the Trigger Date at least thirty (30) days before reaching the
then applicable Trigger Date.

close on or before one year of the anniversary date of the Option Notice unless delayed by obtaining the necessary approvals from the applicable Gaming Authorities. All parties agree to proceed in good faith and with due diligence to close any such
transaction. Upon close, the purchase price shall be paid in full, in cash, by the Company. 
 (e) A Material Event for the
purpose of allowing Company to exercise the right to Call the NGA Interests shall mean the loss, forfeiture, surrender or termination of a material license or finding of unsuitability issued by one or more of the applicable Gaming Authorities with
respect to Reeg, NGA or any transferee of NGA or any affiliate of NGA. In the event that a Material Event occurs prior to the Trigger Date or during an extension thereof, NGA or its assignee or affiliate shall provide carry back financing to the
Company on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to the Company. Upon the occurrence of a Material Event, the Company shall have the right at any time to Call NGA’s Membership Interest if required or ordered by any one or more of the
applicable Gaming Authorities and such Call shall be on the terms as provided for herein, unless other terms are required by any of the applicable Gaming Authorities in which event, the Call shall be on such other terms.

 Section 11.6 Tax Allocations.

forth in the Proposed Transferee’s Written Offer; provided, however, that such option and right to purchase of the Company shall be NULL and VOID if the sale to the Company of the Membership Interest of the Transferring Member described in the
Proposed Transferee’s Written Offer would result in the Company having only ONE (1) Member. Whether or not the Company shall exercise such option and right to purchase shall be determined by the vote or written consent of the Members
holding more than FIFTY PERCENT (50%) of the outstanding Membership Voting Interests, excluding the outstanding Membership Voting Interests held by the Transferring Member. 
 Within FIVE (5) days after the Company’s failure or election not to exercise the Company’s option and right to purchase provided by this
Section 14.1 (for any reason, including that such right and option is NULL and VOID under the immediately-preceding paragraph hereof), the Board of Managers shall forward to each of the Members a copy of the Proposed Transferee’s Written
Offer together with a statement that the Company has failed or elected not to exercise the Company’s option and right to purchase (such statement of the Company, for the purposes of this Section 14.1, the “Company’s
Statement”), who collectively and individually then shall have the right and option, but no obligation, to purchase all, and only all, of the Membership Interest of the Transferring Member described in the Proposed Transferee’s Written
Offer under the terms set forth in the Proposed Transferee’s Written Offer. Any Member desiring to acquire all or a portion of the Membership Interest of the Transferring Member described in the Proposed Transferee’s Written Offer shall
deliver to the Board of Managers a written election to purchase such Membership Interest of the Transferring Member or a specified portion thereof within THIRTY (30) days after the date of the Company’s Statement (such THIRTY (30) day
period, for the purposes of this Section 14.1, the “Members’ Option Period”). If, in accordance with the immediately-preceding sentence hereof, the Company during the Members’ Option Period receives notice from Members
electing to purchase in the aggregate more than the Membership Interest of the Transferring Member described in the Proposed Transferee’s Written Offer, then each purchasing Member shall have priority, up to the amount of such Membership
Interest of the Transferring Member specified in such purchasing Member’s notice, to purchase such proportion of such Membership Interest of the Transferring Member as such purchasing Member’s Membership Interest bears to the total
Membership Interests held by Members electing to purchase. 
  

 34 








 Within FOURTEEN (14) days after the expiration of the Members’ Option Period, the Board of
Managers shall notify each purchasing Member as to what extent, if at all, such purchasing Member’s election was effective. Each such purchasing Member shall satisfy the terms and conditions of the purchase within TWENTY ONE (21) days
after receipt of such Board of Managers’ notification. 
 If, in accordance with the foregoing terms and provisions of this
Section 14.1, neither the Company nor the Members have elected to exercise their option and right to purchase all of the Membership Interest of the Transferring Member described in the Proposed Transferee’s Written Offer, then (provided
that, in accordance with subparagraph (d) of Section 17.1 of this Operating Agreement, such sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition does not cause the Company to dissolve), subject to the remaining terms and provisions of this
Section 14.1 and the terms and provisions of Section 14.2 of this Operating Agreement, the Transferring Member may sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of such Membership Interest of the Transferring Member to the Proposed
Transferee under the exact terms specified in the Proposed Transferee’s Written Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Transferring Member’s sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition of such Membership Interest of the Transferring
Member to the Proposed Transferee under the exact terms specified in the Proposed Transferee’s Written Offer shall be conditioned (the “Gaming Approval Condition”) on the receipt by the Proposed Transferee, in accordance with the
terms and provisions of ARTICLE XV of this Operating Agreement, of a license to hold an ownership interest in a gaming licensee in all jurisdictions where Company operates. Within SIXTY (60) days after the expiration of the Members’ Option
Period, the Proposed Transferee shall file with the applicable Gaming Authorities an application for a gaming license (the “Gaming License Applications”). The Proposed Transferee shall prosecute the Gaming License Applications with all
reasonable diligence and otherwise use best efforts to obtain the Gaming Licenses as expeditiously as practicable, without delay. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstance shall the Proposed Transferee have more than ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY
(180) days after the date of filing of the Gaming License Applications with the applicable Gaming Authorities to obtain the Gaming Licenses. If, in accordance with the foregoing terms and provisions of this Section 14.1, the Transferring
Member does not sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of the Membership Interest of the Transferring Member described in the Proposed Transferee’s Written Offer to the Proposed Transferee under the exact terms specified in the Proposed
Transferee’s Written Offer within TWO HUNDRED FIFTY (250) days after the expiration of the Members’ Option Period, then the Transferring Member shall, before so selling, transferring, assigning or otherwise disposing of such
Membership Interest of the Transferring Member to the Proposed Transferee or any other Transferee, re-offer such Membership Interest of the Transferring Member to the Company and the Members in the manner provided in this Section 14.1.

 Section 14.2 Substitute Members; Rights of Transferees. Except as otherwise permitted by Section 14.4 hereof and
notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Operating Agreement, a Transferee upon receipt of a Membership Interest shall become a Member only if and when each of the following conditions is satisfied: 
 (a) The Transferring Member of the Membership Interest transferred shall send written notice to the other Members requesting the admission
of the Transferee as a substitute Member with respect to the Membership Interest transferred and setting 

  

 35 








 
forth the name and address of the Transferee, the Membership Interest transferred and the effective date of the transfer; provided, however, that the
foregoing shall not apply to any transfer of a Membership Interest to a Proposed Transferee under Section 14.1 of this Operating Agreement or to any transfer of all or any portion of a Membership Interest effected under Section 14.5 of
this Operating Agreement (except as otherwise provided therein); 
 (b) Not less than a “majority in interest” (as
hereinafter defined) of the Members (excluding the Transferring Member) must approve of the Transferring Member’s sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition to the Transferee of the Transferring Member’s Membership Interest so
transferred and consent in writing to the admission of such Transferee as a Member, which approval and consent may be given or withheld by any Member in the sole and absolute discretion of such Member; provided, however, that, with respect to any
sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition to a Proposed Transferee under Section 14.1 of this Operating Agreement, the Members (excluding the Transferring Member) shall vote on such sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition and the
admission of such Proposed Transferee as a Member at a special meeting or in writing by no later than TEN (10) days after the expiration of the Members’ Option Period as defined in Section 14.1 of this Operating Agreement. For the
purposes of this subparagraph (b) of this Section 14.2, the term “majority in interest” means a majority in interest in profits of the Members, which is based on Membership Interests; 
 (c) The Transferee (and such Transferee’s spouse, where applicable) shall execute and deliver to the Company and the Members and the
Interest Holders a counterpart of this Operating Agreement, thereby binding such Transferee (and such Transferee’s spouse, where applicable) to the terms and provisions of this Operating Agreement, and further shall execute such other documents
and instruments as the Board of Managers deems necessary or appropriate for admission of the Transferee as a substitute Member; and 
 (d) Unless the Board of Managers approves otherwise, the Transferee shall reimburse the Company for all reasonable accounting, legal and other expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the transfer of a Membership Interest to such
Transferee and the admission of such Transferee as a Member. 
 If a sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition of a Membership Interest
to a Transferee under this ARTICLE XIV is approved and the admission of such Transferee as a Member is consented to as required by subparagraph (b) of this Section 14.2, then such Transferee shall be admitted to all of the rights and
powers of a Member, including holding a Membership Voting Interest, and shall be subject to all of the restrictions and liabilities of the Transferring Member; provided, however, that, in accordance with Nevada Revised Statutes Section 86.351,
in every such event the Transferring Member is not released from liability to the Company. Until such time, if any, as a Transferee is admitted to the Company as a substitute Member in accordance with the terms and provisions of this
Section 14.2, (i) such Transferee shall be an assignee only, and such Transferee only shall receive, to the extent transferred, the distributions and allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit or similar item to which the
Transferring Member that transferred its Membership Interest to such Transferee would be entitled, and (ii) such Transferee shall not be entitled or enabled to exercise any other right or power of a Member, all of such other rights and powers
remaining with the Transferring Member. In every such case, the Transferring Member shall continue to 

  

 36 








 
be a Member and retain all rights as such theretofore associated with the transferred Membership Interest of such Member even if such Member so has
transferred such Member’s entire Membership Interest to one or more assignees. If any such Transferee desires to make a further assignment of any Membership Interest, then such Transferee shall be subject to all of the terms and provisions of
this Operating Agreement to the same extent and in the same manner as any Member desiring to make such an assignment. 
 Section 14.3
Additional Conditions to Transfer. Notwithstanding the terms and provisions of Section 14.1 of this Operating Agreement, no Member shall have the right voluntarily or involuntarily to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of all or
any portion of any Membership Interest, and no such purported sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition need be recognized by the Company, unless all of the following conditions are satisfied or waived by the Board of Managers: 
 (a) The sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition shall not of itself cause the Company to be in default under any indebtedness of
the Company; 
 (b) The Transferring Member shall deliver to the Company an opinion in form and substance and from legal
counsel reasonably acceptable to the Board of Managers stating that such sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition does not violate any federal securities law, or any applicable gaming law, the Transferee shall deliver such additional
documents respecting the Transferee’s investor suitability and other legal or investment matters as the Board of Managers reasonably may require, including, without limitation, the suitability questionnaire referred to in Section 7.5 of
this Operating Agreement, and the Company shall have no duty to participate in, cause or pay for any registration or qualification procedure under federal or state securities law; 
 (c) The Transferring Member shall deliver to the Company a fully-executed written agreement of sale, transfer, assignment or other
disposition that sets forth the name, address and social security or taxpayer identification number of the Transferee and the terms of such sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition, provided that such terms shall not conflict with any
provision of this Operating Agreement; and 
 (d) The Transferee (and such Transferee’s spouse, where applicable),
whether or not admitted to the Company as a Member under this Operating Agreement, shall execute and deliver to the Company and the Members and the Interest Holders a counterpart of this Operating Agreement, thereby binding the Transferee (and such
Transferee’s spouse, where applicable) to the terms and provisions of this Operating Agreement. 
 Section 14.4 Permitted

and securities law, any Member at any time and from time to time may transfer all or any portion of such Member’s Membership Interest to any of the persons or entities listed in subparagraphs (a) through (d), inclusive, of this

 37 








 (c) To any ONE (1) or more entities that directly, or indirectly through one or more
intermediaries, control, or are controlled by, or are under common control with, any ONE (1) or more of the Members, whether or not such Members, immediately before such transfer, are the owners of the Membership Interests so transferred;
and/or 
 (d) To any Affiliate of NGA as provided in Section 9.5(b). 
 Section 14.5 Special Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding Section 14.1 of this Operating Agreement, but subject to all of the
requirements of applicable gaming law and securities law, all or any portion of the Membership Interests (individually, a “Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interest,” and, collectively, the “Specially-Permitted Transferable
Membership Interests”) originally issued to and held as of the date of this Operating Agreement by Ludwig J. Corrao (the “Current Individual Member ) may be transferred, subject to the limitation set forth below in this Section 14.5,
at any time and from time to time by the Current Individual Member and any of the persons or entities listed in subparagraphs (a) through (c), inclusive, of this Section 14.5 to any of the persons or entities listed in subparagraphs
(a) through (c), inclusive, of this Section 14.5 (individually, a “Specially-Permitted Transferee,” and, collectively, the “Specially-Permitted Transferees”). For the purposes of this Section 14.5, the term
“Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interests” (i) shall not include Membership Interests acquired by the Current Individual Member after the date of this Operating Agreement and (ii) shall not include Membership
Interests acquired by any other person or entity after the date of this Operating Agreement unless (a) such other person or entity is a Specially-Permitted Transferee, and (b) such Membership Interests consist of all or any portion of the
Membership Interests originally issued to and respectively held by the Current Individual Member as of the date of this Operating Agreement, in which case such Membership Interests so acquired by such Specially-Permitted Transferee shall be included
in the term “Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interests” for the purposes of this Section 14.5. Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Operating Agreement, but subject to the limitation set forth below in this
Section 14.5, all current Members holding ONE HUNDRED PERCENT (100%) of the outstanding Membership Voting Interests, and all future Members effective immediately upon their execution and delivery to the Company of a counterpart of this
Operating Agreement, hereby irrevocably approve by their affirmative written consent (the execution and delivery of this Operating Agreement or any counterpart of this Operating Agreement constituting such written consent for this purpose) any
transfer of all or any portion of the Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interests effected under this Section 14.5 and the admission as Members of any or all of the persons or entities listed in subparagraphs (a) through (c),
inclusive, of this Section 14.5 upon the receipt by such persons or entities of all or any portion of such Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interests so transferred. In the alternative, notwithstanding any other term or provision of
this Operating Agreement, but subject to the limitation set forth below in this Section 14.5, all current Members, and all future Members effective immediately upon their execution and delivery to the Company of a counterpart of this Operating
Agreement, hereby irrevocably agree and bind themselves to be obligated, upon request at any time and from time to time by any holder of Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interests, such request being made in the sole and absolute
discretion of such holder of Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interests, to approve by their affirmative written consent any transfer of all or any portion of the Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interests effected under this
Section 14.5 and the admission as Members of any or all of the persons or entities listed in subparagraphs (a) through (c), inclusive, of this Section 14.5 upon the receipt by such persons or entities of all or any portion of such

 38 








 (a) To any ONE (1) or more entities that directly, or indirectly through one or more
intermediaries, control, or are controlled by, or are under common control with, any ONE (1) or more of the Members, whether or not such Members, immediately before such transfer, are the owners of the Specially-Permitted Transferable
Membership Interest so transferred; 
 (b) To any ONE (1) or more of the respective children and/or other lineal
descendants of the holder of the Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interest, by inter-vivos transfer, devise, bequest, declaration of trust (with the trustee of such trust being obligated under the terms of such trust to hold such
transferred Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interest subject to the terms and provisions of this Operating Agreement) or any other means; and/or 
 (c) To a revocable living trust for the benefit of the holder of the Specially- Permitted Transferable Membership Interest to the extent
allowed by local law (with the trustee of such revocable living trust being obligated under the terms of such trust to hold such transferred Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interest subject to the terms and provisions of this Operating
Agreement). 
 Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Operating Agreement, but subject to the limitation set forth below in this
Section 14.5, effective immediately upon any sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition of all or any portion of a Specially-Permitted Transferable Membership Interest effected under this Section 14.5 to any of the persons or entities
listed in subparagraphs (a) through (c), inclusive, of this Section 14.5, such person or entity shall be admitted to all of the rights and powers of a Member, including holding a Membership Voting Interest, and shall be subject to all of
the restrictions and liabilities of the Transferring Individual Member; provided, however, that, in accordance with Nevada Revised Statutes Section 86.351, in every such event the Transferring Member is not released from liability to the
Company. 
 Section 14.6 Transfer Upon Death of Individual Member. Provided that, in accordance with subparagraph (d) of
Section 17.1 of this Operating Agreement, such event does not cause the Company to be dissolved, and subject to the terms and provisions of Section 14.2 and Section 14.5 of this Operating Agreement, within a period beginning with the
death of any individual Member (a “Decedent Individual Member”) and ending ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY (180) days after the qualification of the Decedent Individual Member’s executor or administrator, the Company shall have the right and
option, but no obligation, to purchase all, and only all, of the Decedent Individual Member’s Membership Interest for the purchase price determined under Section 14.8 of this Operating Agreement and, subject to the remaining terms and
provisions of this Section 14.6, under the terms and provisions of Section 14.9 of this Operating Agreement; provided, however, that such option and right to purchase of the Company shall be NULL and VOID if the sale to the Company of the
Membership Interest of the Decedent Individual Member would result in the Company having only ONE (1) Member. Whether or not the Company shall exercise such option and right to purchase shall be determined by the vote or written consent of the
Members holding more than FIFTY PERCENT (50%) of the outstanding Membership Voting Interests, excluding the outstanding Membership Voting Interests held by the Decedent Individual Member. 
  

 39 








 Within FIVE (5) days after the Company’s failure or election not to exercise the Company’s
option and right to purchase provided by this Section 14.6 (for any reason, including that such right and option is NULL and VOID under the immediately-preceding paragraph hereof), the Board of Managers shall forward to each of the Members a
notice of the Decedent Individual Member’s death together with a statement that the Company has failed or elected not to exercise the Company’s option and right to purchase (such statement of the Company, for the purposes of this
Section 14.6, the “Company’s Statement”), who collectively and individually then shall have the right and option, but no obligation, to purchase all, and only all, of the Decedent Individual Member’s Membership Interest for
the purchase price determined under Section 14.8 of this Operating Agreement and under the terms and provisions of Section 14.9 of this Operating Agreement. Any Member desiring to acquire all or a portion of the Membership Interest of the
Decedent Individual Member shall deliver to the Board of Managers a written election to purchase such Membership Interest of the Decedent Individual Member or a specified portion thereof within THIRTY (30) days after the date of the
Company’s Statement (such THIRTY (30) day period, for the purposes of this Section 14.6, the “Members’ Option Period”). If, in accordance with the immediately-preceding sentence hereof, the Company during the
Members’ Option Period receives notice from Members electing to purchase in the aggregate more than the Membership Interest of the Decedent Individual Member, then each purchasing Member shall have priority, up to the amount of such Membership
Interest of the Decedent Individual Member specified in such purchasing Member’s notice, to purchase such proportion of such Membership Interest of the Decedent Individual Member as such purchasing Member’s Membership Interest bears to the
total Membership Interests held by Members electing to purchase. 
 Within FOURTEEN (14) days after the expiration of the Members’
Option Period, the Board of Managers shall notify each purchasing Member as to what extent, if at all, such purchasing Member’s election was effective. Each such purchasing Member shall satisfy the terms and conditions of the purchase within
TWENTY ONE (21) days after receipt of such Board of Managers’ notification or, if precluded from doing so by probate or other similar proceedings, then as soon as practicable pursuant to such proceedings. 
 If, in accordance with the foregoing terms and provisions of this Section 14.6, neither the Company nor the Members have elected to exercise their
option and right to purchase all of the Membership Interest of the Decedent Individual Member, then (provided that, in accordance with subparagraph (d) of Section 17.1 of this Operating Agreement, such sale, transfer, assignment or other
disposition does not cause the Company to dissolve) the executor or administrator or other authorized representative of the Decedent Individual Member’s estate or any successor of the Decedent Individual Member may sell, transfer, assign or
otherwise dispose of the Membership Interest of the Decedent Individual Member, but only in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 14.1 and Section 14.2 of this Operating Agreement. 
 If, in accordance with the foregoing terms and provisions of this Section 14.6, either the Company or the Members have elected to exercise their
option and right to purchase all of the Membership Interest of the Decedent Individual Member, then the executor or administrator or other authorized representative of the Decedent Individual Member’s estate shall apply for and obtain any
necessary court approval or confirmation of the sale of the Membership Interest of the Decedent Individual Member, and the Company shall file the necessary proofs of death and collect the proceeds of outstanding insurance policies on the life of the
Decedent Individual Member owned by the Company, if any. If the purchase price is fully funded by the proceeds of such insurance policies, then the Company shall pay the purchase price in cash from the proceeds of such insurance policies, and the
remaining proceeds, if any, shall be Company 

  

 40 








 
property. If the purchase price is not fully funded by the proceeds of such insurance policies, then the Company shall pay the purchase price in cash up to
the full amount of the proceeds of such insurance policies and shall pay any remaining portion of the purchase price in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 14.9 of this Operating Agreement. In order to ensure that all or a
substantial part of the purchase price for the Membership Interest of an individual Member will be available immediately in cash upon such individual Member’s death, the Company may procure and make subject to this Operating Agreement insurance
on the lives of any or all of the individual Members. The Company shall be the beneficiary and sole owner of all insurance policies issued to the Company subject to this Operating Agreement. The Company shall pay all premiums falling due under such
insurance policies. The Company shall have the right at any time to procure additional insurance policies on the lives of the individual Members and make such insurance policies subject to this Operating Agreement in order to keep the value of the
insurance policies owned by the Company in parity with the value of the outstanding Membership Interests. The Company shall be the beneficiary and sole owner of all such additional insurance policies. Other insurance policies may be substituted for
insurance policies made subject to this Operating Agreement, and insurance policies subject hereto may be withdrawn. Any addition, substitution or withdrawal of insurance policies shall be endorsed and signed by the Company and all of the Managers.

 Section 14.7 Triggering Events - Involuntary Transfer. Provided that, in accordance with subparagraph (d) of
Section 17.1 of this Operating Agreement, such event does not cause the Company to be dissolved, if any of the triggering events (individually, a “Triggering Event”) listed below occurs as to any Member (an “Affected
Member”), the Company and the Members who are not Affected Members shall have the rights and options, but no obligation, to purchase the entire Membership Interest owned by the Affected Member under the remaining terms and provisions of this
Section 14.7. 
 (a) A Member is adjudicated a bankrupt, either voluntary or involuntary; 
 (b) A Member makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; 
 (c) A Member’s Membership Interest is subject to a writ of attachment or charging order; or 
 (d) The execution of any property settlement agreement between any Member and such Member’s spouse, or the entry of any decree of
divorce or separate maintenance by a court of competent jurisdiction, wherein such spouse is awarded any Membership Interest or a trust is imposed on such Membership Interest for the benefit of such spouse. To the extent that such Membership
Interest is transferred, or to the extent that such Membership Interest is subject to the imposition of any such trust or lien, a Triggering Event as to the Membership Interest so affected shall be deemed to have occurred. 
 During the period that commences as of the date of a Triggering Event and ends ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY (180) days thereafter, the Affected Member or the
authorized representative of the Affected Member may sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of the Membership Interest of the Affected Member, but only in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 14.1 and Section 14.2 of
this Operating Agreement. If such sale does not occur within such ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY (180) day period, then as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter the Company shall give written notice to the Affected Member or the authorized
representative of the Affected Member of the rights and options of the Company and the Members who are not Affected Members to purchase the Membership Interest of the Affected Member in accordance with the terms and provisions of this
Section 14.7. 
  

 41 








 Within THIRTY (30) days after the date of such written notice of the Company to the Affected Member
or the authorized representative of the Affected Member, the Company shall have the right and option, but no obligation, to purchase all, and only all, of the Affected Member’s Membership Interest for the purchase price determined under
Section 14.8 of this Operating Agreement and under the terms and provisions of Section 14.9 of this Operating Agreement; provided, however, that such option and right to purchase of the Company shall be NULL and VOID if the sale to the
Company of the Membership Interest of the Affected Member would result in the Company having only ONE (1) Member. Whether or not the Company shall exercise such option and right to purchase shall be determined by the vote or written consent of
the Members holding more than FIFTY PERCENT (50%) of the outstanding Membership Voting Interests, excluding the outstanding Membership Voting Interests held by the Affected Member. 
 Within FIVE (5) days after the Company’s failure or election not to exercise the Company’s option and right to purchase provided by this
Section 14.7 (for any reason, including that such right and option is NULL and VOID under the immediately-preceding paragraph hereof), the Board of Managers shall forward to each of the Members a notice of the Triggering Event and the identity
of the Affected Member together with a statement that the Company has failed or elected not to exercise the Company’s option and right to purchase (such statement of the Company, for the purposes of this Section 14.7, the
“Company’s Statement”), who collectively and individually then shall have the right and option, but no obligation, to purchase all, and only all, of the Affected Member’s Membership Interest for the purchase price determined
under Section 14.8 of this Operating Agreement and under the terms and provisions of Section 14.9 of this Operating Agreement. Any Member desiring to acquire all or a portion of the Membership Interest of the Affected Member shall deliver
to the Board of Managers a written election to purchase such Membership Interest of the Affected Member or a specified portion thereof within THIRTY (30) days after the date of the Company’s Statement (such THIRTY (30) day period, for
the purposes of this Section 14.7, the “Members’ Option Period”). If, in accordance with the immediately-preceding sentence hereof, the Company during the Members’ Option Period receives notice from Members electing to
purchase in the aggregate more than the Membership Interest of the Affected Member, then each purchasing Member shall have priority, up to the amount of such Membership Interest of the Affected Member specified in such purchasing Member’s
notice, to purchase such proportion of such Membership Interest of the Affected Member as such purchasing Member’s Membership Interest bears to the total Membership Interests held by Members electing to purchase. 
 Within FOURTEEN (14) days after the expiration of the Members’ Option Period, the Board of Managers shall notify each purchasing Member as to
what extent, if at all, such purchasing Member’s election was effective. Each such purchasing Member shall satisfy the terms and conditions of the purchase within TWENTY ONE (21) days after receipt of such Board of Managers’
notification or, if precluded from doing so by bankruptcy, divorce or other similar proceedings, then as soon as practicable pursuant to such proceedings. 
 If, in accordance with the foregoing terms and provisions of this Section 14.7, neither the Company nor the Members have elected to exercise their option and right to purchase all of the Membership Interest of
the Affected Member, then (provided that, in accordance with subparagraph (d) of Section 17.1 of this Operating Agreement, such sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition does not cause the Company to dissolve) the Affected Member or
the 

  

 42 








 
authorized representative of the Affected Member may sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of the Membership Interest of the Affected Member, but only
in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 14.1 and Section 14.2 of this Operating Agreement. 
 If, in accordance with
the foregoing terms and provisions of this Section 14.7, either the Company or the Members have elected to exercise their option and right to purchase all of the Membership Interest of the Affected Member, then the Affected Member or authorized
representative of the Affected Member shall apply for and obtain any necessary court approval or confirmation of the sale of the Membership Interest of the Affected Member. 
 Section 14.8 Valuation. The date for determining the valuation of a Membership Interest for the purposes of this ARTICLE XIV (except
Section 14.1 hereof) (the “Determination Date”) shall be the last day of the month immediately preceding the month in which the event requiring a determination of the purchase price occurs. The purchase price to be paid for a
Membership Interest subject to this Operating Agreement shall be determined by appraisal and shall be equal to the appraised value of the Company and allocated among the Membership Interests outstanding in accordance with each Member’s and
Interest Holder’s capital account. All appraisals shall be undertaken by TWO (2) appraisers, ONE (1) selected by the selling party, or such party’s estate, successor or legal representative, as the case may be, and the other
selected by the purchasing party, or such party’s estate, successor or legal representative, as the case may be. The selection of such appraisers shall occur no later than THIRTY (30) days after the occurrence of the event requiring
determination of the purchase price under this Operating Agreement. The appraised value of the Company shall be the valuation arrived at by such TWO (2) appraisers within SIXTY (60) days after the appointment of the last appraiser to be
appointed. If the TWO (2) appraisers cannot agree on such appraised value of the Company within such SIXTY (60) days, then (a) if the appraisers’ valuations are within FIVE PERCENT (5%) of each other based on the lower of
such appraisals, the appraised value of the Company shall be the mean of the TWO (2) valuations, or (b) if the difference between the appraisers’ valuations is greater than FIVE PERCENT (5%) based on the lower of such appraisals,
the appraisers shall select a third appraiser who shall calculate the appraised value of the Company independently, and, except as provided in the immediately-following sentence hereof, the appraised value of the Company in each such case shall be
the average of the TWO (2) valuations arrived at by the TWO (2) out of such THREE (3) appraisers whose valuations are closest in amount. If ONE (1) appraiser’s valuation is the mean of the valuations determined by the other
TWO (2) appraisers, then the appraised value of the Company shall be such mean valuation. If the TWO (2) original appraisers cannot agree upon a third appraiser within THIRTY (30) days after the end of the SIXTY (60) day period
referred to above, then the third appraiser shall be appointed by the Chief Judge of the Second Judicial District Court, County of Washoe, in and for the State of Nevada. The selling party, or such party’s estate, successor or legal
representative, as the case may be, shall pay all fees and costs of the appraiser selected by such party. The purchasing party, or such party’s estate, successor or legal representative, as the case may be, shall pay all fees and costs of the

 (b) Such member has no present intention to sell or otherwise distribute any part of such Member’s

Members holding more than SEVENTY FIVE PERCENT (75%) of the outstanding Membership Voting Interests; or

 Section 17.2 Liquidation. Upon the occurrence of any event requiring dissolution as set forth in Section 17.1 of this Operating
Agreement, if the Company is not continued as permitted under subparagraph (d) of Section 17.1 of this Operating Agreement, then the Board of Managers in accordance with Nevada Revised Statutes Section 86.491 immediately shall
commence settling and closing the Company’s business, collecting and discharging the Company’s obligations, disposing of and conveying the Company’s property and distributing the Company’s assets, but not for the purpose of
continuing the business for which the Company was established. 
  

 49 








 Section 17.3 Distribution of Assets. During the liquidation of the Company, the Members and
the Interest Holders shall continue to share Net Profits and Net Losses in the same proportions as before dissolution. In settling accounts after dissolution, the proceeds from the liquidation of the Company’s assets (after payment of all
expenses of liquidation) shall be applied as follows: 
 (a) To creditors of the Company, including Members and Interest
Holders who are creditors of the Company (other than debts owed to Members and/or Interest Holders for their capital contributions), in the order of priority as provided by law; and then 
 (b) To the Members and the Interest Holders in accordance with their positive capital account balances, as determined after taking into
account all capital account adjustments for the taxable year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Company occurs (other than such capital account adjustments made by reason of this clause);

disposition of the Company’s property shall be credited or charged to the Members and the Interest Holders in accordance with the terms and provisions of ARTICLE X of this Operating Agreement. Any property distributed in kind in liquidation
shall be valued and treated as if the property were sold for its fair market value and the cash proceeds distributed. The difference between the value of the property distributed in kind and its book value to the Company shall be treated as a gain
or loss on the sale of the property to be allocated between the Members and the Interest Holders in accordance with ARTICLE X of this Operating Agreement. 
 Section 17.5 Right to Defer Sale of Certain Assets. Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this ARTICLE XVII, if upon dissolution of the Company the Board of Managers determines that an immediate
sale of all or a portion of the assets of the Company would cause undue loss to the Members and the Interest Holders, then the Board of Managers, in order to avoid such loss, after giving notice of intending to do so to all of the Members and the
Interest Holders, to the extent not then prohibited by Chapter 86 or any other applicable law, either may defer the sale of and withhold from distribution for a reasonable time such assets of the Company, unless a sale of such assets is necessary to
satisfy the Company’s debts and obligations, or may distribute such assets of the Company to the Members and the Interest Holders in kind. 
 Section 17.6 Liquidation Distributions in Kind. If any part of the assets of the Company are to be distributed in kind, then such assets shall be distributed on the basis of their fair market value, and any Member or Interest
Holder entitled to any interest in such assets shall receive such interest as a tenant-in-common with all other Members and Interest Holders so entitled in proportion to their Membership Interests. The fair market value of such assets shall be
determined by an independent appraiser that shall be selected by the Board of Managers. The book value of such assets shall be credited or charged to the Members and the Interest Holders in proportion to their Membership Interests. 
  

 50 








 Section 17.7 Limitation on Recourse at Liquidation. The Members and the Interest Holders
shall look solely to the assets of the Company for payment of debts or liabilities owed by the Company to the Members or Interest Holders and for the return of their capital contributions. If the assets of the Company remaining after the payment or
discharge of the debts and liabilities of the Company to persons other than Members and Interest Holders is insufficient to pay the debts or liabilities owed by the Company to the Members and the Interest Holders and to return their capital
contributions, then the Members and the Interest Holders shall have no recourse therefor against the Company or any other Member or Interest Holder except to the extent that such other Member or Interest Holder may have outstanding debts or
obligations owing to the Company. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, upon liquidation of a
Member’s Interest in the Company (whether or not in connection with a liquidation of the Company), no Member shall have any liability to restore any deficit in its Capital Account. In addition, no allocation to any Member of any loss, whether
attributable to depreciation or otherwise, shall create any asset of or obligation to the Company, even if such allocation reduces the Capital Account of any Member or creates or increases a deficit in such Capital Account; it is also the intent of
the Members that no Member shall be obligated to pay any such amount to or for the account of the Company or any creditor of the Company. No creditor of the Company is intended as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement nor shall any such
creditor have any rights hereunder. 
 Section 17.8 Articles of Dissolution. When all debts, liabilities and obligations of the
Company have been paid and discharged or adequate provision has been made therefor, and all of the remaining property and assets have been distributed to the Members and/or the Interest Holders, articles of dissolution shall be prepared, signed,
acknowledged and filed with the Nevada Secretary of State in accordance with Nevada Revised Statutes Sections 86.531 and 86.541.

such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does not, of itself, create a presumption that such person

to any criminal action or proceeding, such person had reasonable cause to believe that such person’s conduct was unlawful.

good faith and in a manner that such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. Indemnification shall not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such person has been adjudged by a court of
competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the Company, or for amounts paid in settlement to the Company, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of
competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all of the circumstances of the case such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper. 
 Section 18.3 Advancement of Expenses. The expenses (including attorney’s fees) of a Member or Manager or officer of the Company incurred
in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Company as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, upon the Company’s receipt from such Member or Manager or
officer of the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Member or Manager or officer of the Company to repay the entire amount of monies so advanced by the Company if it ultimately is determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court
of competent jurisdiction that such Member or Manager or officer of the Company is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company (which determination, as to any Manager, shall have been made under the terms and provisions of subparagraph (d) of
Section 5.7 of this Operating Agreement; and which determination, as to any officer of the Company, shall have been made under the terms and provisions of subparagraph (b) of Section 6.6 of this Operating Agreement). The terms and

actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such defense. 
  

 52

subparagraph (a) of this Section 18.4, any indemnification under Section 18.1 or Section 18.2 of this Operating Agreement, unless ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or advanced in accordance with Section 18.3 of
this Operating Agreement, may be made by the Company only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification is proper in the circumstances. Except as prohibited by the last sentence of Section 18.2 of this Operating

PERCENT (50%) of the outstanding Membership Voting Interests that are not owned by parties to the act, suit or proceeding so order, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; provided, however, that such independent legal counsel shall
have no authority to, and shall not, determine that indemnification is proper for any person in any case in which liability of such person is determined by such independent legal counsel to have resulted from or have been caused by acts or omissions
of such person that involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law; or 
 (iv) If Members who are not
parties to the act, suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; provided, however, that such independent legal counsel shall have no authority to, and shall not, determine that indemnification is proper

 TAX MATTERS PARTNER 
 21.1 Designation. The Members hereby unanimously designate Recreational
Enterprises, Inc., a Nevada corporation, that as of the date of this Operating Agreement is both a Member and a Manager, as the “Tax Matters Partner” of the Company as defined in Section 6231 of the Internal Revenue Code. Any future
alternative Tax Matters Partner that may be approved by the Members in accordance with the terms and provisions of subparagraph (a) of Section 5.10 of this Operating Agreement shall be both a Member and a Manager of the Company.

 21.2 Powers and Duties. The Tax Matters Partner shall have such powers and perform such duties as provided in Sections 6221 through
6233 of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to a “tax matters partner” as such term is defined in Section 6231(a)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code. 
 ARTICLE XXII 
 PREVENTION OF TAXATION OF COMPANY AS A CORPORATION BY REASON OF BEING 

TREATED AS A PUBLICLY-TRADED PARTNERSHIP 
 Section 22.1 Number of Members and Interest Holders. Without the prior affirmative vote or written consent of the Members holding more than FIFTY PERCENT (50 %) of the outstanding Membership Voting Interests, the Company
shall not at any time have more than ONE HUNDRED (100) Members and/or Interest Holders (including as Members and Interest Holders every person indirectly owning a Membership Interest through a partnership, limited liability company, S
corporation or grantor trust (such an entity, a “Flow-Through Entity”) but only if substantially all of the value of such person’s interest in the Flow-Through Entity is attributable to the Flow-Through Entity’s interest (direct
or indirect) in the Company). 
 Section 22.2 Compliance With Safe Harbor. The Board of Managers and the Chief Executive
Officer, President and Presiding Manager shall monitor the transfers of Membership Interests to determine (a) whether such Membership Interests are being traded on an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or
the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Internal Revenue Code and (b) whether additional transfers of Membership Interests would result in the Company being unable to qualify for at least ONE
(1) of the “safe harbors” set forth in Regulations Section 1.7704-1 (or such other guidance subsequently published by the Internal Revenue Service setting forth safe harbors under which Membership Interests will not be treated as
“readily tradable on a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Internal Revenue Code) (the “Safe Harbors”). The Board of Managers and the Chief Executive
Officer, President and Presiding Manager shall take all steps reasonably necessary or appropriate to prevent any trading of Membership Interests or any recognition by the Company of transfers of Membership Interests made on such markets and,
except as otherwise provided in this Operating Agreement, to ensure that the conditions of at least ONE (1) of the Safe Harbors is satisfied. 
 Section 22.3 Prohibited “Market” Transfers. Each Member and Interest Holder hereby covenants and agrees with the Company for the benefit of the Company and of all other Members and Interest Holders (a) that such
Member or Interest Holder currently is not making a market in Membership Interests; (b) that such Member or Interest Holder shall not transfer any Membership Interest upon an “established securities market” or a “secondary market
(or the 

  

 56 








 
substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Internal Revenue Code and all regulations, proposed regulations, revenue
rulings or other official pronouncements of the Internal Revenue Service or Treasury Department that may be promulgated or published; and (c) that, in the event that such regulations, revenue rulings or other pronouncements treat arrangements
that facilitate the selling of a Membership Interest that commonly are referred to as “Matching Services” as being a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof),” such Member or Interest Holder shall not transfer
any Membership Interest through a Matching Service that is not approved in advance by the Board of Managers. 
 ARTICLE XXIII
