MEMBERS AND INTERESTS GENERALLY




     Section 3.1 Powers of Members. The Members shall have the power to exercise any and
all rights or powers granted to the Members pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement. The
approval or consent of the Members shall not be required in order to authorize the taking of any
action by the Company unless and then only to the extent that (a) this Agreement shall
expressly provide therefor, (b) such approval or consent shall be required by non-waivable
provisions of the Delaware Act or (c) the Board shall have determined in its sole
discretion that obtaining such approval or consent would be appropriate or desirable. The Members,
as such, shall have no power to bind the Company.



     Section 3.2 Interests Generally. As of the date hereof, the Company has two
authorized classes of Interests: Common Units and Override Units (which will consist of either
Operating Units or Value Units as described below). Except as otherwise provided in this Article
III, the Company shall not (1) authorize additional classes of Interests denominated in the form of
Units other than Override Units or (2) to issue Units in a particular class to any Person other
than a Management Member (including any Person who becomes a Management Member at any time after
the date of this Agreement in accordance with Section 3.6) without (x) the prior consent of the
Board, (y) the prior consent of a Majority in Interest (exclusive of Override Units) of the
Management Members or, to the extent (and only to the extent) any particular Management Member
would be uniquely and adversely affected by a proposed additional class



3









 







of Interests, by such Management Member and (z) the prior consent of CA. Additional classes
of Override Units may be authorized from time to time by the Board without obtaining the consent of
any Member, class of Members or CA.



     (a) Common Units.




     (i) General. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2(b), the holders of
Common Units will have voting rights with respect to their Common Units as provided in
Section 3.3(d) and shall have the rights with respect to profits and losses of the Company
and distributions from the Company as are set forth herein. The number of Common Units of
each Member as of any given time shall be set forth on Schedule A, as it may be updated from
time to time in accordance with this Agreement.




     (ii) Price. The payment terms and schedule for the Capital Contributions
applicable to any Common Unit will be determined by the Board upon issuance of such Common
Units.



     (b) Override Units.




     (i) General. The Company will have two sub-classes of Override Units:
Operating Units and Value Units. Subject to the provisions of Article VII hereof (including
the applicable Benchmark Amount), the holders of Override Units will have no voting rights
with respect to their Override Units but shall have the rights with respect to profits and
losses of the Company and distributions from the Company as are set forth herein;
provided that additional terms and conditions applicable to an Override Unit may be
established by the Board in connection with the issuance of any such Override Unit to a
person who becomes a Management Member at any time after the date of this Agreement in
accordance with Section 3.6 hereof. The number of Override Units issued to a Management
Member as of any given time shall be set forth on Schedule A, as it may be updated from time
to time in accordance with this Agreement. Following the forfeiture and cancellation of any
Override Units pursuant to Section 7.2, the Company may issue a number of Override Units up
to such number of forfeited and cancelled Override Units as the Board may determine, without
obtaining the consent of any Member, class of Members or CA.




     (ii) Price. The holders of Override Units are not required to make any Capital
Contribution to the Company in exchange for their Override Units, it being recognized that,
unless otherwise determined by a majority of the Board, such Units shall be issued only to
Management Members who own Common Units and who agree to provide services to the Company
pursuant to Section 4.13.



     (c) At least 30 days prior to any issuance of Interests by the Company to any Management
Member (including any Person who becomes a Management Member at any time after the date of this
Agreement in accordance with Section 3.6), the Company shall deliver a written notice to that
effect to CA II, which notice shall include the amount and type of Interests to be issued, the
identity of such Management Member or Management Members, the Capital



4









 







Contribution expected to be made with respect to such Interests, if any, and any other
material terms and conditions of such proposed issuance.



     Section 3.3 Meetings of Members.



     (a) Meetings; Notice of Meetings. Meetings of the Members, including any special
meeting, may be called by the Board from time to time. Notice of any such meeting shall be given
to all Members not less than two nor more than 30 business days prior to the date of such meeting
and shall state the location, date and hour of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting,
the nature of the business to be transacted. Meetings shall be held at the location (within or
without the State of Delaware) at the date and hour set forth in the notice of the meeting.



     (b) Waiver of Notice. No notice of any meeting of Members need be given to any Member
who submits a signed waiver of notice, whether before or after the meeting. Neither the business
to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Members need be
specified in a written waiver of notice. The attendance of any Member at a meeting of Members
shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the Member attends a meeting for
the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any
business on the ground that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.



     (c) Quorum. Except as otherwise required by applicable law or by the Certificate, the
presence in person or by proxy of the holders of record of a Majority in Interest shall constitute
a quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting.



     (d) Voting. If the Board has fixed a record date, every holder of record of Units
entitled to vote at a meeting of Members or to consent in writing in lieu of a meeting of Members
as of such date shall be entitled to one vote for each such Unit outstanding in such Member’s name
at the close of business on such record date. Holders of record of Override Units will have no
voting rights with respect to such Units. If no record date has been so fixed, then every holder
of record of such Units entitled to vote at a meeting of Members or to consent in writing in lieu
of a meeting of Members shall be entitled to one vote for each Unit outstanding in his name on the
close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice of the meeting is given or the
first consent in respect of the applicable action is executed and delivered to the Company, or, if
notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting
is held. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, the Certificate or this Agreement, the
vote of a Majority in Interest at any meeting at which a quorum is present shall be sufficient for
the transaction of any business at such meeting.



     (e) Proxies. Each Member may authorize any Person to act for such Member by proxy on
all matters in which a Member is entitled to participate, including waiving notice of any meeting,
or voting or participating at a meeting. Every proxy must be signed by the Member or such Member’s
attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of three years from the date
thereof unless otherwise provided in the proxy. Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of
the Member executing it unless otherwise provided in such proxy; provided, that such right
to revocation shall not invalidate or otherwise affect actions taken under such proxy prior to such
revocation.



5









 





     (f) Organization. Each meeting of Members shall be conducted by such Person as the
Board may designate.



     (g) Action Without a Meeting. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, any action
which may be taken at any meeting of the Members may be taken without a meeting, without prior
notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be
signed by a Majority in Interest. Prompt notice of the taking of the action without a meeting by
less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those Members who have not consented in
writing.



     Section 3.4 Business Transactions of a Member with the Company. A Member may lend
money to, borrow money from, act as surety or endorser for, guarantee or assume one or more
specific obligations of, provide collateral for, or transact any other business with the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries; provided that any such transaction shall require the approval of
the Board.



     Section 3.5 No Cessation of Membership upon Bankruptcy. A Person shall not cease to
be a Member of the Company upon the happening, with respect to such Person, of any of the events
specified in Section 18-304 of the Delaware Act.



     Section 3.6 Additional Members.

ARTICLE IV




MANAGEMENT




     Section 4.1 Board.



     (a) Generally. The business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by or under
the direction of a committee of the Company (the “Board”) consisting of such number of
natural persons (each, a “Director”) as shall be established by the vote, approval or
consent of a



7









 







Majority in Interest from time to time. The Directors shall be appointed to the Board upon
the vote, approval or consent of a Majority in Interest. Directors need not be Members. Subject
to the other provisions of this Article IV, the Board shall have full, exclusive and complete
discretion to manage and control the business and affairs of the Company, to make all decisions
affecting the business and affairs of the Company and to take all such actions as it deems
necessary or appropriate to accomplish the purposes of the Company as set forth herein, including,
without limitation, to exercise all of the powers of the Company set forth in Section 2.2 of this
Agreement. Each person named as a Director herein or subsequently appointed as a Director is
hereby designated as a “manager” (within the meaning of the Delaware Act) of the Company. Except
as otherwise provided herein, and notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 18-402 of the
Delaware Act, no single Director may bind the Company, and the Board shall have the power to act
only collectively in accordance with the provisions and in the manner specified herein. Each
Director shall hold office until a successor is appointed in accordance with this Section 4.1(b) or
until such Director’s earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the provisions
hereof.



     (b) Current Directors. Subject to the right to increase or decrease the authorized
number of Directors pursuant to the first sentence of Section 4.1(a), the Board shall consist of
two Directors. The two Directors referenced in the immediately preceding sentence shall be Scott
Lebovitz and Kenneth Pontarelli.



     Section 4.2 Meetings of the Board. The Board shall meet from time to time to discuss
the business of the Company. The Board may hold meetings either within or without the State of
Delaware. Meetings of the Board may be held without notice at such time and at such place as shall
from time to time be determined by the Board. The Chief Executive Officer of the Company or a
majority of the Board may call a meeting of the Board on five business days’ notice to each
Director, either personally, by telephone, by facsimile or by any other similarly timely means of
communication, which notice requirement may be waived by the Directors.



     Section 4.3 Quorum and Acts of the Board.



     (a) At all meetings of the Board, two Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction
of business, unless the number of Directors is increased or decreased pursuant to Section 4.1(a),
in which case the presence of a majority of the then authorized number of Directors shall
constitute a quorum. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board, the Directors
present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement
at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present. Any action required or permitted to be taken at
any meeting of the Board or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if a majority
of the members of the Board or committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, and the
writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board or committee.



     (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the act of a majority of the Directors
present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board.



     Section 4.4 Electronic Communications. Members of the Board, or any committee
designated by the Board, may participate in a meeting of the Board, or any committee, by means



8









 







of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons
participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall
constitute presence in person at the meeting.



     Section 4.5 Committees of Directors. The Board may, by resolution passed by a
majority of Directors, designate one or more committees. Such resolution shall specify the duties,
quorum requirements and qualifications of the members of such committees, each such committee to
consist of such number of Directors as the Board may fix from time to time. The Board may
designate one or more Directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent
or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. In the absence or disqualification of a
member of a committee, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified
from voting, whether or not such members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another
member of the Board to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member.
Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of the Board, shall have and may
exercise all the powers and authority of the Board in the management of the business and affairs of
the Company. Such committee or committees shall have such name or names as may be determined from
time to time by resolution adopted by the Board. Each committee shall keep regular minutes of its
meetings and report the same to the Board when required.



     Section 4.6 Compensation of Directors. The Board shall have the authority to fix the
compensation of Directors. The Directors may be paid their expenses, if any, of attendance at such
meetings of the Board and may be paid a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the Board or a
stated salary as a Director. No such payment shall preclude any Director from serving the Company
in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. Members of any committee of the Board
may be allowed like compensation for attending committee meetings.



     Section 4.7 Resignation. Any Director may resign at any time by giving written notice
to the Company. The resignation of any Director shall take effect upon receipt of such notice or
at such later time as shall be specified in the notice; and, unless otherwise specified in the
notice, the acceptance of the resignation by the Company, the Members or the remaining Directors
shall not be necessary to make it effective. Upon the effectiveness of any such resignation, such
Director shall cease to be a “manager” (within the meaning of the Delaware Act).



     Section 4.8 Removal of Directors. Members shall have the right to remove any Director
at any time for cause upon the affirmative vote of a Majority in Interest. In addition, a majority
of the Directors then in office shall have the right to remove a Director for cause. Upon the
taking of such action, the Director shall cease to be a “manager” (within the meaning of the
Delaware Act). Any vacancy caused by any such removal shall be filled in accordance with Section
4.9.



     Section 4.9 Vacancies. If any vacancies shall occur in the Board, by reason of death,
resignation, deemed resignation, removal or otherwise, the Directors then in office shall continue
to act, and actions that would otherwise be taken by a majority of the Directors may be taken by a
majority of the Directors then in office, even if less than a quorum. A Director elected to fill a



9









 







vacancy shall hold office until his or her successor has been elected and qualified or until
his or her earlier death, resignation or removal.



     Section 4.10 Directors as Agents. The Directors, to the extent of their powers set
forth in this Agreement, are agents of the Company for the purpose of the Company’s business, and
the actions of the Directors taken in accordance with such powers shall bind the Company. Except
as otherwise provided in Section 1.3 and notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 18-402 of the
Delaware Act, no single Director shall have the power to bind the Company and the Board shall have
the power to act only collectively in the manner specified herein.



     Section 4.11 Officers. The Board shall appoint an individual or individuals to serve
as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President and Chief Financial Officer and may, from
time to time as it deems advisable, appoint additional officers of the Company (together with the
Chief Executive Officer and President and Chief Financial Officer, the “Officers”) and
assign such officers titles (including, without limitation, Vice President, Secretary and
Treasurer). Unless otherwise decided by a majority of the Board, each Management Member shall be
an officer of the Company. Unless the Board decides otherwise, if the title is one commonly used
for officers of a business corporation formed under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the
assignment of such title shall constitute the delegation to such person of the authorities and
duties that are normally associated with that office. Any delegation pursuant to this Section 4.11
may be revoked at any time by the Board. Any Officer may be removed with or without cause by the
Board, except as otherwise provided in any services or employment agreement between such Officer
and the Company.



     Section 4.12 Strategic Planning Committee. The Company shall establish a Strategic
Planning Committee to advise the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company on such
matters as he shall request, which shall at a minimum include (but shall not be limited to)
assessment of and advice regarding (a) the business affairs and prospects of the Company
and its Subsidiaries; (b) developing and implementing corporate and business strategy and
planning for the Company and its Subsidiaries, including plans and programs for improving
operating, marketing and financial performance, budgeting of future corporate investments,
acquisition and divestiture strategies, and reorganization programs and (c) planning for
and assessment of strategic opportunities and disposition prospects for the Company and its
Subsidiaries. The Strategic Planning Committee shall have no decision-making authority, but
instead shall advise and report to, and be chaired by, the President and Chief Executive Officer of
the Company. The Strategic Planning Committee shall consist of each Management Member (excluding
Inactive Management Members). The Strategic Planning Committee shall meet at least semiannually
and in connection with matters determined by the Board in its sole discretion.

ARTICLE VIII




ALLOCATIONS




     Section 8.1 Book Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss.



     (a) Except as provided in Section 8.2, Net Income and Net Loss of the Company shall be
allocated among the Members’ Capital Accounts as of the end of each Accounting Period or portion
thereof in a manner that as closely as possible gives effect to the economic provisions of this
Agreement.



     (b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.2, all items of gross income, gain, loss and
deduction included in the computation of Net Income and Net Loss shall be allocated in the same
proportion as are Net Income and Net Loss.



     Section 8.2 Special Book Allocations.



     (a) Qualified Income Offset. If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustment,
allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulations section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5)
or



17









 







(6) and such adjustment, allocation or distribution causes or increases a deficit in such
Member’s Capital Account in excess of its obligation to make additional Capital Contributions (a
“Deficit”), items of gross income and gain for such Accounting Period and each subsequent
Accounting Period shall be specifically allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient
to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, the Deficit of such Member as
quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 8.2(a) shall be
made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a Deficit after all other allocations
provided for in this Article VIII have been tentatively made as if this Section 8.2(a) were not in
this Agreement. This Section 8.2(a) is intended to comply with the qualified income offset
provision of Treasury Regulations section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted in a manner
consistent therewith.



     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, items of gross income, gain,
loss or deduction shall be specifically allocated to particular Members to the extent necessary to
comply with applicable law (including the requirement to make “forfeiture allocations” within the
meaning of Prop. Treas. Reg. Section 1. 704-1(b)(4)(xii)).



     (c) Restorative Allocations. Any special allocations of items of income or gain
pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall be taken into account in computing subsequent allocations
pursuant to this Agreement so that the net amount for any item so allocated and all other items
allocated to each Member pursuant to this Agreement shall be equal, to the extent possible, to the
net amount that would have been allocated to each Member pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement if such special allocations had not occurred.



     Section 8.3 Tax Allocations. The income, gains, losses, credits and deductions
recognized by the Company shall be allocated among the Members, for U.S. federal, state and local
income tax purposes, to the extent permitted under the Code and the Treasury Regulations, in the
same manner that each such item is allocated to the Members’ Capital Accounts. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Board shall have the power to make such allocations for U.S. federal, state and
local income tax purposes so long as such allocations have substantial economic effect, or are
otherwise in accordance with the Members’ Interests, in each case within the meaning of the Code
and the Treasury Regulations. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, in allocating income, gain,
loss, credits, and deductions among the Members for U.S. federal, state, and local income tax
purposes, the Board has discretion to: (1) disregard Section 7.1(c); and (2) compute Current Value
by assuming that the price per Common Unit will equal the quotient obtained by dividing: (x) the
aggregate capital accounts of all Members, by (y) the number of Common Units outstanding, including
all Override Units issued and outstanding at the end of the taxable year, whether vested or
unvested, other than Override Units (including without limitation, Value Units issued hereunder)
that, by their terms would be forfeited in conjunction with the occurrence of an Exit Event if they
did not become eligible to participate in distributions pursuant to Section 7.1(b) upon the
occurrence of the Exit Event. In accordance with section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury
Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed
to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax
purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the
adjusted basis of such property to the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its Book
Value.

ARTICLE IX




DISTRIBUTIONS




     Section 9.1 Distributions Generally.



     (a) The Company may make distributions to the Members to the extent that the cash available to
the Company is in excess of the reasonably anticipated needs of the business (including reserves).
In determining the amount distributable to each Member, the provisions of this Section 9.1 shall be
applied in an iterative manner.



     (b) Subject to Section 9.1(c) and (d), any such distributions shall be made to the Members in
proportion to the number of Units held by each Member as of the time of such distribution.



     (c) The amount of any proposed distribution to a holder of any Override Unit pursuant to
Section 9.1(b) in respect of such Override Unit shall be reduced until the total reductions in
proposed distributions pursuant to this Section 9.1(c) in respect of such Override Unit equals the
Benchmark Amount in respect of such Override Unit. Any amount that is not distributed to the
holder of any Override Unit pursuant to this Section 9.1(c) shall be distributed pursuant to
Section 9.1(b) and shall remain subject to this Section 9.1(c).



     (d) In the event that pursuant to Section 7.1(b) a Value Unit was not previously entitled to
participate in an actual distribution made by the Company under Section 9.1(b) but under the terms
of Section 7.1(b) such Value Unit is currently entitled to participate in distributions, then
Section 9.1(b) notwithstanding, any distributions by the Company shall be made 100% to the holder
of such Value Unit in respect of such Value Unit until the total distributions made pursuant to
this Section 9.1(d) in respect of such Value Unit equal the total distributions that would have
been made in respect of such Value Unit if such Value Unit (and any other Value Units currently
entitled to participate in distributions) had at all times been entitled to participate in
distributions to the extent set forth in Section 7.1(b). In the event that this Section 9.1(d)
applies to two or more Value Units at the same time, the distributions contemplated by this Section
9.1(d) shall be made in respect of each such Value Unit in proportion to the amounts distributable
under this Section 9.1(d) in respect of each such Value Unit. For the avoidance of doubt, this
Section 9.1(d) shall not apply to any Value Unit that is forfeited. The Board shall have the power
in its sole discretion to make adjustments to the operation of this Section 9.1(d) if the Board
determines in its sole discretion that such adjustments will further the intent of this Section
9.1(d).



     Section 9.2 Distributions In Kind. In the event of a distribution of Company
property, such property shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to have been sold at its
Fair Market Value and the proceeds of such sale shall be deemed to have been distributed to the
Members.



     Section 9.3 No Withdrawal of Capital. Except as otherwise expressly provided in
Article XIII, no Member shall have the right to withdraw capital from the Company or to receive any
distribution or return of such Member’s Capital Contributions.



19









 





     Section 9.4 Withholding.



     (a) Each Member shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify and hold
harmless each Person who is or who is deemed to be the responsible withholding agent for U.S.
federal, state or local income tax purposes against all claims, liabilities and expenses of
whatever nature (other than any claims, liabilities and expenses in the nature of penalties and
accrued interest thereon that result from such Person’s fraud, willful misfeasance, bad faith or
gross negligence) relating to such Person’s obligation to withhold and to pay over, or otherwise
pay, any withholding or other taxes payable by the Company or as a result of such Member’s
participation in the Company.



     (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX, (i) each Member hereby
authorizes the Company to withhold and to pay over, or otherwise pay, any withholding or other
taxes payable by the Company or any of its Affiliates with respect to such Member or as a result of
such Member’s participation in the Company and (ii) if and to the extent that the Company
shall be required to withhold or pay any such taxes (including any amounts withheld from amounts
payable to the Company to the extent attributable, in the judgment of the Members, to such Member’s
Interest), such Member shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have received a
payment from the Company as of the time such withholding or tax is required to be paid, which
payment shall be deemed to be a distribution with respect to such Member’s Interest to the extent
that the Member (or any successor to such Member’s Interest) is then entitled to receive a
distribution. To the extent that the aggregate of such payments to a Member for any period exceeds
the distributions to which such Member is entitled for such period, such Member shall make a prompt
payment to the Company of such amount. It is the intention of the Members that no amounts will be
includible as compensation income to any Management Member, or will give rise to any withholding
taxes imposed on compensation income, for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of
the receipt, vesting or disposition of, or lapse of any restriction with respect to, any Override
Units granted to such Member.



     (c) If the Company makes a distribution in kind and such distribution is subject to
withholding or other taxes payable by the Company on behalf of any Member, such Member shall make a
prompt payment to the Company of the amount of such withholding or other taxes by wire transfer.



     Section 9.5 Restricted Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not make a distribution to any Member on account of
its Interest if such distribution would violate Section 18-607 of the Delaware Act or other
applicable law.



     Section 9.6 Tax Distributions. In the event that the Company sells an equity interest
in a Subsidiary, resulting in taxable income being recognized by the Members, or the Members are
otherwise allocated taxable income from the Company (in each case, other than upon an Exit Event),
the Company may make distributions to the Members to the extent of available cash (as
determined by the Board in its discretion) in an amount equal to such income multiplied by a
reasonable tax rate determined by the Board; it being understood that, if the Members are allocated
material taxable income without corresponding cash distributions sufficient to pay the resulting
tax liabilities, it is the Company’s intention to make the tax distributions referred to



20









 







herein;
provided that the Board in its sole discretion shall determine whether any such tax
distributions will be made. Any distributions made to a Member pursuant to this Section 9.6 shall
reduce the amount otherwise distributable to such Member pursuant to the other provisions of this
Agreement, so that to the maximum extent possible, the total amount of distributions received by
each Member pursuant to this Agreement at any time is the same as such Member would have received
if no distribution had been made pursuant to this Section 9.6. To the extent the cumulative sum of
tax distributions made to a Member under this Section 9.6 has not been applied pursuant to the
preceding sentence to reduce other amounts distributable to such Member, such Member shall
contribute to the Company the remaining amounts necessary to give full effect to the preceding
sentence on the date of the final liquidating distribution made by the Company pursuant to Section
13.2.



ARTICLE X




BOOKS AND RECORDS




     Section 10.1 Books, Records and Financial Statements. At all times during the
continuance of the Company, the Company shall maintain, at its principal place of business,
separate books of account for the Company that shall show a true and accurate record of all costs
and expenses incurred, all charges made, all credits made and received and all U.S. income derived
in connection with the operation of the Company’s business in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles consistently applied, and, to the extent inconsistent therewith, in
accordance with this Agreement. Such books of account, together with a copy of this Agreement and
the Certificate, shall at all times be maintained at the principal place of business of the Company
and shall be open to inspection and examination at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice by
each Member and its duly authorized representative for any purpose reasonably related to such
Member’s Interest; provided that the Company may maintain the confidentiality of Schedule
A.



     Section 10.2 Filings of Returns and Other Writings; Tax Matters Partner.



     (a) The Company shall timely file all Company tax returns and shall timely file all other
writings required by any governmental authority having jurisdiction to require such filing. Within
90 days after the end of each taxable year (or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter), the
Company shall send to each Person that was a Member at any time during such year copies of Schedule
K-1, “Partner’s Share of Income, Credits, Deductions, Etc.”, or any successor schedule or form,
with respect to such Person, together with such additional information as may be necessary for such
Person to file his, her or its United States federal income tax returns.



     (b) GSCP Onshore shall be the tax matters partner of the Company, within the meaning of
section 6231 of the Code (the “Tax Matters Partner”) unless a Majority in Interest votes
otherwise. Each Member hereby consents to such designation and agrees that upon the request
of the Tax Matters Partner, such Member will execute, certify, acknowledge, deliver, swear to,
file and record at the appropriate public offices such documents as may be necessary or appropriate
to evidence such consent.



21









 





     (c) Promptly following the written request of the Tax Matters Partner, the Company shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, reimburse and indemnify the Tax Matters Partner for
all reasonable expenses, including reasonable legal and accounting fees, claims, liabilities,
losses and damages incurred by the Tax Matters Partner in connection with any administrative or
judicial proceeding with respect to the tax liability of the Members, except to the extent arising
from the bad faith, gross negligence, willful violation of law, fraud or breach of this Agreement
by such Tax Matters Partner.



     (d) The provisions of this Section 10.2 shall survive the termination of the Company or the
termination of any Member’s Interest and shall remain binding on the Members for as long a period
of time as is necessary to resolve with the Internal Revenue Service any and all matters regarding
the U.S. federal income taxation of the Company or the Members.



     Section 10.3 Accounting Method. For both financial and tax reporting purposes, the
books and records of the Company shall be kept on the accrual method of accounting applied in a
consistent manner and shall reflect all Company transactions and be appropriate and adequate for
the Company’s business.

     Section 11.3 Fiduciary Duty. Any duties (including fiduciary duties) of a Covered
Person to the Company or to any other Covered Person that would otherwise apply at law or in equity
are hereby eliminated to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware Act and any other
applicable law; provided that (a) the foregoing shall not eliminate the obligation
of each Covered Person to act in compliance with the express terms of this Agreement and
(b) the foregoing shall not be deemed to eliminate the implied contractual covenant of good
faith and fair dealing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each
of the Members
hereby acknowledges and agrees that each of the Directors, in determining whether or not to
vote in support of or against any particular decision for which the Board’s consent is required,

shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to the final disposition of such claim,
demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction that the Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in
this Section 11.5.



     Section 11.6 Severability. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if any
portion of this Article shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction,

Transfer any Interests including, without limitation, to any other Member, or by gift, or by
operation of law or otherwise; provided that, subject to Section 12.2(b) and Section
12.2(c), Interests may be Transferred by a Member (i) pursuant to Section 12.3 (“Estate
Planning Transfers, Transfers Upon Death of a Management Member”), (ii) in accordance with
Section 12.4 (“Involuntary Transfers”), or (iii) pursuant to the prior written approval of
each of the Board and CA, in each case, in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the forgoing,
Interests may be
Transferred by an Investor Member to an Affiliate of such Transferring Investor Member without
the approval of the Board or CA.



23









 





     Section 12.2 Overriding Provisions.



     (a) Any Transfer in violation of this Article XII shall be null and void ab initio, and the
provisions of Section 12.2(e) shall not apply to any such Transfers. The approval of any Transfer
in any one or more instances shall not limit or waive the requirement for such approval in any
other or future instance.



     (b) All Transfers permitted under this Article XII are subject to this Section 12.2 and
Sections 12.5 and 12.6.



     (c) Any proposed Transfer by a Member pursuant to the terms of this Article XII shall, in
addition to meeting all of the other requirements of this Agreement, satisfy the following
conditions: (i) the Transfer will not be effected on or through an “established securities
market” or a “secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof,” as such terms are used in
Treasury Regulations section 1.7704-1, and, at the request of the Board, the transferor and the
transferee will have each provided the Company a certificate to such effect; and (ii) the
proposed transfer will not result in the Company having more than 99 Members, within the meaning of
Treasury Regulations section 1.7704-1(h)(1) (determined pursuant to the rules of Treasury
Regulations section 1.7704-1(h)(3)). The Board may in its sole discretion waive the condition set
forth in clause (ii) of this Section 12.2(c).



     (d) The Company shall promptly amend Schedule A to reflect any permitted transfers of
Interests pursuant to and in accordance with this Article XII.



     (e) The Company shall, from the effective date of any permitted assignment of an Interest (or
part thereof), thereafter pay all further distributions on account of such Interest (or part
thereof) to the assignee of such Interest (or part thereof); provided that such assignee shall have
no right or powers as a Member unless such assignee complies with Section 12.6.



     Section 12.3 Estate Planning Transfers; Transfers upon Death of a Management Member.
Interests held by Management Members may be transferred for estate-planning purposes of such
Management Member, to (A) a trust under which the distribution of the Interests may be made only to
beneficiaries who are such Management Member, his or her spouse, his or her parents, members of his
or her immediate family or his or her lineal descendants, (B) a charitable remainder trust, the
income from which will be paid to such Management Member during his or her life, (C) a corporation,
the shareholders of which are only such Management Member, his or her spouse, his or her parents,
members of his or her immediate family or his or her lineal descendants or (D) a partnership or
limited liability company, the partners or members of which are only such Management Member, his or
her spouse, his or her parents, members of his or her immediate family or his or her lineal
descendants. Interests may be transferred as a result of the laws of descent; provided
that, in each such case, such Management Member provides prior written notice to the Board of such
proposed Transfer and makes available to the Board documentation, as the Board may reasonably
request, in order to verify such Transfer.



     Section 12.4 Involuntary Transfers. Any transfer of title or beneficial ownership of
Interests upon default, foreclosure, forfeit, divorce, court order or otherwise than by a voluntary



24









 







decision on the part of a Management Member or Outside Member (each, an “Involuntary
Transfer”) shall be void unless such Management Member or Outside Member complies with this
Section 12.4 and enables the Company to exercise in full its rights hereunder. Upon any
Involuntary Transfer, the Company shall have the right to purchase such Interests pursuant to this
Section 12.4 and the Person to whom such Interests have been Transferred (the “Involuntary
Transferee”) shall have the obligation to sell such Interests in accordance with this Section
12.4. Upon the Involuntary Transfer of any Interest, such Management Member or Outside Member
shall promptly (but in no event later than two days after such Involuntary Transfer) furnish
written notice to the Company indicating that the Involuntary Transfer has occurred, specifying the
name of the Involuntary Transferee, giving a detailed description of the circumstances giving rise
to, and stating the legal basis for, the Involuntary Transfer. Upon the receipt of the notice
described in the preceding sentence, and for 60 days thereafter, the Company shall have the right

than all) of the Interests acquired by the Involuntary Transferee for a purchase price equal to the
lesser of (i) the Fair Market Value of such Interest and (ii) the amount of the
indebtedness or other liability that gave rise to the Involuntary Transfer plus the excess, if any,
of the Carrying Value of such Interests over the amount of such indebtedness or other liability
that gave rise to the Involuntary Transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any
Involuntary Transfer of Override Units shall result in the immediate forfeiture of such Override
Units and without any compensation therefor, and such Involuntary Transferee shall have no rights
with respect to such Override Units.



     Section 12.5 Assignments.



     (a) Assignment Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Members hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives,
successors and assigns; provided that no Non-Investor Member may assign any of its rights
or obligations hereunder without the consent of GSCP unless such assignment is in connection with a
Transfer explicitly permitted by this Agreement and, prior to such assignment, such assignee
complies with the requirements of Section 12.6.



     Section 12.6 Substitute Members. In the event any Non-Investor Member or Investor
Member Transfers its Interest in compliance with the other provisions of this Article XII (other
than Section 12.4), the transferee thereof shall have the right to become a substitute Non-Investor
Member or substitute Investor Member, as the case may be, but only upon satisfaction of the
following:



     (a) execution of such instruments as the Board deems reasonably necessary or desirable to
effect such substitution; and



     (b) acceptance and agreement in writing by the transferee of the Member’s Interest to be bound
by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and assumption of all obligations under this
Agreement (including breaches hereof) applicable to the transferor and in the case of a transferee
of a Management Member who resides in a state with a community property system, such transferee
causes his or her spouse, if any, to execute a Spousal Waiver in the form of
Exhibit A attached hereto. Upon the execution of the instrument of assumption by such
transferee and, if applicable, the Spousal Waiver by the spouse of such transferee, such



25









 







transferee
shall enjoy all of the rights and shall be subject to all of the restrictions and obligations of
the transferor of such transferee.



     Section 12.7 Release of Liability. In the event any Member shall sell such Member’s
entire Interest (other than in connection with an Exit Event) in compliance with the provisions of
this Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to the penultimate sentence of Section
12.4, without retaining any interest therein, directly or indirectly, then the selling Member
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be relieved of any further liability
arising hereunder for events occurring from and after the date of such Transfer.



ARTICLE XIII




DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION




     Section 13.1 Dissolving Events. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs wound
up in the manner hereinafter provided upon the happening of any of the following events:



     (a) the Board and the Members shall vote or agree in writing to dissolve the Company pursuant
to the required votes set forth in Section 3.3(d) and Section 4.3, respectively; or



     (b) any event which, under applicable law, would cause the dissolution of the Company;
provided that, unless required by applicable law, the Company shall not be wound up as a result of
any such event and the business of the Company shall continue.



     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the death, retirement, resignation, expulsion, bankruptcy or
dissolution of any Member or the occurrence of any other event that terminates the continued
membership of any Member in the Company under the Delaware Act shall not, in and of itself, cause
the dissolution of the Company. In such event, the remaining Member(s) shall continue the business
of the Company without dissolution.



     Section 13.2 Dissolution and Winding-Up. Upon the dissolution of the Company, the
assets of the Company shall be liquidated or distributed under the direction of, and to the extent
determined by, the Board, and the business of the Company shall be wound up. Within a reasonable
time after the effective date of dissolution of the Company, the Company’s assets shall be
distributed in the following manner and order:



     First, to creditors in satisfaction of indebtedness (other than any loans or advances
that may have been made by any of the Members to the Company), whether by payment or the making of
reasonable provision for payment, and the expenses of liquidation, whether by payment or the making
of reasonable provision for payment, including the establishment of reasonable reserves (which may
be funded by a liquidating trust) determined by the Board or the liquidating trustee, as the case
may be, to be reasonably necessary for the payment of the Company’s expenses, liabilities and other
obligations (whether fixed, conditional, unmatured or contingent);



     Second, to the payment of loans or advances that may have been made by any of the
Members to the Company; and



26









 





     Third, to the Members in accordance with Section 9.1, taking into account any amounts
previously distributed under Section 9.1;


provided that no payment or distribution in any of the foregoing categories shall be made
until all payments in each prior category shall have been made in full, and provided,
further, that, if the payments due to be made in any of the foregoing categories exceed the
remaining assets available for such purpose, such payments shall be made to the Persons entitled to
receive the same pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts due to them.




     Section 13.3 Distributions in Cash or in Kind. Upon the dissolution of the Company,
the Board shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to liquidate all of the Company’s assets in
an orderly manner and apply the proceeds of such liquidation as set forth in Section 13.2;
provided that, if in the good faith judgment of the Board, a Company asset should not be
liquidated, the Board shall cause the Company to allocate, on the basis of the Fair Market Value of
any Company assets not sold or otherwise disposed of, any unrealized gain or loss based on such
value to the Members’ Capital Accounts as though the assets in question had been sold on the date
of distribution and, after giving effect to any such adjustment, distribute such assets in
accordance with Section 13.2 as if such Fair Market Value had been received in cash, subject to the
priorities set forth in Section 13.2, and provided, further, that the Board shall
in good faith attempt to liquidate sufficient Company assets to satisfy in cash (or make reasonable
provision for) the debts and liabilities referred to in Section 13.2.



     Section 13.4 Termination. The Company shall terminate when the winding up of the
Company’s affairs has been completed, all of the assets of the Company have been distributed and
the Certificate has been canceled, all in accordance with the Delaware Act.



     Section 13.5 Claims of the Members. The Members and former Members shall look solely
to the Company’s assets for the return of their Capital Contributions, and if the assets of the
Company remaining after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of
the Company are insufficient to return such Capital Contributions, the Members and former Members
shall have no recourse against the Company or any other Member.

     (a) Subject to the amendment provisions of Section 12.10(a), this Agreement may not be
amended, modified or supplemented except by a written instrument signed by each of the Investor
Members; provided, however, that the Board may make such modifications to this
Agreement, including Schedule A, as are necessary to admit Additional Members who are admitted in
accordance with Sections 3.2, 3.6, 6.2 and 12.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment,
modification or supplement shall adversely affect the Management Members as a class without the
consent of a Majority in Interest (exclusive of Override Units) of the Management Members or, to
the extent (and only to the extent) any particular Management Member would be uniquely and
adversely affected by a proposed amendment, modification or supplement, by such Management Member;
provided, further, that, in either case, no such consent shall be required for

open market, and for that reason, among others, the Company and the Members will be irreparably
damaged in the event this Agreement is not specifically enforced. Each of the Members therefore
agrees that, in the event of a breach of any provision of this Agreement, the aggrieved party may
elect to institute and prosecute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce
specific performance or to enjoin the continuing breach of this Agreement. Such remedies shall,
however, be cumulative and not exclusive, and shall be in addition to any other remedy which the
Company or any Member may have. Each Member hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in New York for the



30









 







purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of, or based upon, this Agreement

Delaware because of:




     (i) any duly made amendment to this Agreement, or

to effect a termination and dissolution of the Company which is authorized under this Agreement;



     (d) any amendments to this Agreement, duly adopted in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement; and



     (e) any other instruments that GSCP or the Board may deem necessary or desirable to carry out
fully the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that any action taken
pursuant to this power shall not, in any way, increase the liability of the Members beyond the
liability expressly set forth in this Agreement, and provided, further, that, where
action by a majority of the Board is required, such action shall have been taken.



     Such attorney-in-fact is not by the provisions of this Section 14.13 granted any authority on
behalf of the undersigned to amend this Agreement, except as provided for in this Agreement. Such
power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall continue in full force and effect
