ARTICLE

Section
12.1 Transfers. \l3ii) A Member other than the Initial Member may not Transfer any part of its Membership Interest
without (i) the prior written consent of the Initial Member, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, and (ii) an opinion
of a nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that such transfer will not cause the Company
to be treated as a publicly traded partnership within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code. Any purported Transfer of any Membership
Interest in contravention of this Section 12.1 shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be null and void and
of no force or effect whatsoever. No purchase or transfer of a Membership Interest shall be made by or to a Benefit Plan Investor,
no purchase or transfer of a Membership Interest by or to a Benefit Plan Investor will be effective, and neither the Company nor
the Initial Member will recognize any such purchase or transfer. In addition, no purchase or transfer will be effective if it would
cause the Company to (x) be classified as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal
income tax purposes or (y) be required to withhold on the transferee’s distributions or distributive shares of income
under Sections 871, 881 or 1446 of the Code, and neither the Manager nor the Company will recognize any purchase or transfer giving
rise to such classification or withholding.


 


(b)The Initial Member
shall admit a transferee of a Member’s Membership Interest to the Company only if such transferee (i) has agreed in writing
to be bound by the terms of this Agreement by becoming a party hereto and (ii) has delivered such additional documentation as the
Initial Member shall reasonably require to so admit such transferee to the Company. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to
the contrary, both the Company and the Initial Member shall be entitled to treat the transferor of a Membership Interest as the
absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for distributions of cash or other property made in good faith
to it, until such time as a written assignment or other evidence of the consummation of a Transfer that conforms to the requirements
of this Section 12.1 and is reasonably satisfactory to the Initial Member has been received by the Company. The effective
date of any Transfer permitted under this Agreement shall be the close of business on the day of receipt thereof by the Company.


 


Section
12.2 Restrictions on Expulsion. No Member shall be expelled as a Member under any circumstances.


 


ARTICLE
XIII


 


Section
13.1 Liability of Members. Except as required by the Act, no Member or any Manager, agent, shareholder, director,
employee or incorporator of any Member solely by reason of its capacity as such will be liable for the debts, obligations and liabilities
of the Company or any other Member, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, which debts, obligations and liabilities shall
be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company or such other Member, as applicable.

Party in connection with any matter arising from, or related to, or in connection with this Agreement or the Company’s business
or affairs; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not eliminate or limit the liability of any Indemnified Party
if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the Indemnified Party establishes (i) that the Indemnified Party’s
acts or omissions were in bad faith or involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law or (ii) that the Indemnified
Party personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which the Indemnified Party was not legally entitled.


 


(b)The Company shall,
to the fullest extent permitted by the Act, indemnify and hold harmless, and advance expenses to, each Indemnified Party against

from, related to, or in connection with this Agreement or the Company’s business or affairs; provided, however,
that no indemnification may be made to or on behalf of any Indemnified Party (and expenses advanced shall be returned) if a judgment
or other final adjudication adverse to the Indemnified Party establishes (i) that the Indemnified Party’s acts or omissions
were committed in bad faith or involved intentional misconduct as a knowing violation of law or (ii) that the Indemnified
Party personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which the Indemnified Party was not legally entitled.
