     3. LIABILITY OF MEMBER. The Member shall not be liable as such for the
liabilities of the Company. The failure of the Company to observe any
formalities or requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or management
of its business or affairs under this Agreement or the Act shall not be grounds

Company.

     4. INDEMNIFICATION.

                 (a) No Member nor any officer, director, employee or agent of
the Company nor any employee, representative, agent or Affiliate of the Member
(collectively, the "COVERED PERSONS") shall be liable to the Company or any
other Person who is bound by this Agreement for any loss, damage or claim
incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered
Person in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably
believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Covered
Person by this Agreement, except that a Covered Person shall be liable for any
such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Covered Person's gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

                 (b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a
Covered Person shall be entitled to indemnification from the Company for any
loss, damage or claim incurred by such Covered Person by reason of any act or
omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of
the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of the
authority conferred on such Covered Person by this Agreement, except that no
Covered Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss,
damage or claim incurred by such Covered Person by reason of such Covered
Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or
omissions; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any indemnity under this Section 4 by the
Company shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company assets only, and
the Member shall not have personal liability on account thereof; and PROVIDED
FURTHER, that so long as any obligation is outstanding, no indemnity payment
from funds of the Company (as distinct from funds from other sources, such as
insurance) of any indemnity under this SECTION 4 shall be payable from amounts
allocable to any other Person pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

     5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Member hereby represents and
warrants to the Company that: (a) it is duly organized, validly existing, and in
good standing under the laws of its state of organization and that it has full
organizational power to execute and agree to this Agreement and to perform its
obligations hereunder; (b) it is acquiring its interest in the Company for its
own account as an investment and without an intent to distribute the interest;
and (c) it acknowledges that the interests have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws, and may not be
resold or transferred without appropriate registration or the availability of an
exemption from such requirements.

     6. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.

          6.1    The Member shall be entitled to enter into transactions that
may be considered to be competitive with, or a business opportunity that may be
beneficial to, the Company, it being expressly understood that the Member may
enter into transactions that are similar to the transactions into which the
Company may enter. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

                                      -12-
<Page>

the Member shall account to the Company and hold as trustee for it any property,
profit, or benefit derived by the Member in the conduct and winding up of the
Company business or from a use or appropriation by the Member of Company
property including information developed exclusively for the Company and
opportunities expressly offered to the Company.

          6.2    A Member does not violate a duty or obligation to the Company
merely because the Member's conduct furthers the Member's own interest. A Member
may lend money to and transact other business with the Company. The rights and
obligations of the Member if it lends money to or transacts business with the
Company are the same as those of a Person who is not a Member, subject to other
applicable law. No transaction with the Company shall be voidable solely because
a Member has a direct or indirect interest in the transaction if either the
transaction is fair to the Company or the disinterested Managers, in either case
knowing the material facts of the transaction and the Member's interest,
authorize, approve, or ratify the transaction.

                                   ARTICLE VII

     4. AUTHORITY OF MEMBER TO BIND THE COMPANY (GENERAL POWERS). The Member
hereby agrees that only the Managers (acting, except as otherwise provided
herein, by majority vote) and authorized agents of the Company shall have the
authority to bind the Company. The Managers have the power, on behalf of the
Company, to do all things necessary or convenient to carry out the business of
the Company.

provided for herein, the Managers shall have the sole right to manage the
business of the Company and shall have all powers and rights necessary,
appropriate or advisable to effectuate and carry out the purposes and business
of the Company. Except as otherwise provided herein, the vote of two Managers
shall be necessary to approve any action by the Board of Managers. The Member,
by reason of its status as such, shall have no authority to act for or bind the
Company but shall have only the right to vote on and approve the actions herein
specified to be voted on or approved by the Member. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, including Section 18-1101(c) of the Act, the Managers shall
consider only the interests of the Company, including its respective creditors,
in acting or otherwise voting on the matters referred to in this Agreement.
Except as provided in this Agreement, in exercising their rights and performing
their duties under this Agreement, any Manager shall have a fiduciary duty of
loyalty and care similar to that of a director of a business corporation
organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

     6. AUTHORITY TO SIGN DOCUMENTS. The Managers of the Company, and each of
them acting singly, are authorized to execute, acknowledge and deliver any
documents necessary, appropriate or advisable to effectuate and carry out the
purposes and business of the Company, and the execution and delivery by any of
such Managers of any such documents shall be conclusive evidence that such is
within the authority of such Manager so to do.

     7. COMPENSATION OF MANAGERS. The Member hereby agrees that it shall pay all
fees and expenses incurred by each of the Independent Managers in the discharge
of its duties under this Agreement. The Managers shall be reimbursed all
reasonable expenses incurred in managing the Company. Except as otherwise set
forth herein under Section 3 of Article VI hereof, the Managers shall receive no
compensation.

     8. MANAGERS' STANDARD OF CARE AND INDEMNIFICATION. The Managers' duty of
care in the discharge of the Managers' duties to the Company and the Member
shall be the same as a director's duty-of care in the discharging of its duties
under Delaware General Corporation law (subject to terms of Agreement).

     9. REMOVAL OF MANAGERS. The Managers (other than the Independent Managers)
may be removed (with or without cause) by the affirmative vote of the Member.
The Independent Managers may be removed (with or without cause) by the Indenture
Trustee.

     10. ADDITION OR REPLACEMENT OF MANAGERS. The Member may elect new Managers
or replace existing Managers, subject to Section 1 of this Article VII;
provided, however, that there

                                      -14-
<Page>

shall be no change of or appointment of new Managers without the prior
confirmation from the rating agencies then rating the Notes that such change
will not result in either a downgrade or a withdrawal of any of the then current
ratings of the outstanding Notes; and provided, further, however, that a new
Independent Manager may be appointed only by the Indenture Trustee.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                       CONTRIBUTIONS AND CAPITAL ACCOUNTS

     1. CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS. The Initial Member shall make the Initial Capital
Contribution described for the Initial Member on EXHIBIT A at the time and on
the terms specified on EXHIBIT A. If no time for contribution is specified, the
Capital Contributions shall be made upon the filing of the Certificate of
Formation. The value of the Capital Contributions shall be as set forth on
EXHIBIT A. No interest shall accrue on any Capital Contribution and the Member
shall have no right to withdraw or be repaid any Capital Contribution except as
provided in this Agreement.

     2. ADDITIONAL CONTRIBUTIONS. In addition to the Initial Capital
Contributions, the Managers may, but are not required to, determine from time to
time that additional contributions are needed to enable the Company to conduct
its business. Upon making such a determination, the Managers shall give Notice
to the Member in writing at least two Business Days prior to the date on which
such contribution is requested such Notice shall set forth the amount of
additional contribution requested, the purpose for which the contribution is
requested, and the date by which the Member may contribute. The Member shall not
be obligated to make any such additional contributions.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                  DISTRIBUTIONS

     1. INTERIM DISTRIBUTIONS. From time to time, the Managers shall determine
in their reasonable judgment to what extent, if any, the Company's cash on hand
exceeds the current and anticipated needs, including, without limitation, needs
for operating expenses, debt service, acquisitions, reserves, and mandatory
Distributions, if any. To the extent such excess exists, the Managers may make
Distributions to the Member in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and
the Indenture. Such Distributions shall be in cash or Property (which need not
be distributed proportionately) or partly in both, as determined by the
Managers.

     2. LIMITATIONS ON DISTRIBUTIONS. No Distribution shall be declared and paid
unless, after the distribution is made, the assets of the Company are in excess
of all liabilities of the Company, except liabilities to its Member and such
distribution complies with applicable law.

                                    ARTICLE X

                                      TAXES

     1. DISREGARDED ENTITY TREATMENT. The Initial Member intends that, for
federal income tax purposes, the Company shall be disregarded as an entity and
its assets shall be treated as owned in whole by the Initial Member. The
Managers and the Initial Member agree that they will not file an election to be
treated as an association with the Internal Revenue Service or otherwise take
any action contrary to the foregoing intention except as provided in Section 2
of this Article X.

     2. CERTAIN STANDBY PROVISIONS. If appropriate tax authorities require the
Company to be treated as other than a disregarded entity for income tax purposes
on account of any Notes being characterized as equity and not debt, then the
Initial Member and the Managers agree that the Company shall be treated as a
partnership for such purposes, and the following provisions shall apply and the
Managers shall perform or cause to be performed the following actions:

          2.1    A separate capital account (a "TAX CAPITAL ACCOUNT") shall be
established and maintained for each Member and each Note Owner that is
classified as a partner of such partnership for income tax purposes
(collectively, "PARTNERS" and individually, "PARTNER") in accordance with
Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). No Partner shall be entitled to
interest on its Tax Capital Account or any capital contribution made to the
Company.

          2.2    No Partner shall be required to restore any deficit balance in
its Tax Capital Account, and no Partner shall be liable for the return of the
Tax Capital Account of, or of any capital contribution made to the Company by,
another Partner.

          2.3    Income, deductions, gain and loss shall be allocated among the
Partners for income tax purposes in a reasonable manner consistent with the
economic substance of their respective rights under the Indenture and in
accordance with Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704 of the Code.

          2.4    The Company shall deliver to the Partners, as is required by
the Code, the applicable Treasury Regulations or otherwise, such information as
may be required to enable the Partners to prepare their tax returns.

          2.5    The Company shall prepare all applicable tax returns as may be
required by law on the basis of such fiscal year and accounting methods as the
Managers shall reasonably determine. The Managers shall sign and file any and
all such tax returns, unless applicable law requires a Partner to sign such
documents, in which case such returns shall be signed by the Initial Member.

          2.6    To the extent one may be required, the Initial Member shall be
the "tax matters partner" of the Company pursuant to the Code and the applicable
Treasury Regulations.

          2.7    The Company shall make such elections as may from time to time
be required or appropriate under any applicable statute or rule or regulation
thereunder so as to maintain the Company's characterization as a partnership for
federal income tax purposes, and

                                      -16-
<Page>

under no circumstances will the Company, the Initial Member or any Manager file
an election for the Company to be treated as an association with the Internal
Revenue Service.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                       DISPOSITION OF MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS

     1. DISPOSITION. The Initial Member or an Assignee may dispose of all, but
not less than all of the Initial Member's or Assignee's Membership Interest upon
compliance with this SECTION 1. No Membership Interest shall be Disposed of:

          1.1    if such disposition, alone or when combined with other
transactions, would result in a termination of the Company within the meaning of
Section 708 of the Code;

          1.2    without an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Managers that
such assignment is subject to an effective registration under, or exempt from
the registration requirements of, the applicable state and federal securities
laws;

          1.3    unless and until the Company receives from the Assignee the
information and agreements that the Managers may reasonably require, including
but not limited to any taxpayer identification number and any agreement that may
be required by any Taxing Jurisdiction; and

          1.4    unless such disposition is to a single Assignee, and if such
Assignee is a partnership, grantor trust, S corporation or other "flow-through"
entity for tax purposes, such Assignee has provided an opinion of counsel
satisfactory to the Managers that, pursuant to Section 1.7704-1(h)(3) of the
Regulations, owners of such Assignee shall not be treated as partners in the
Company for purposes of Section 1.7704-1(h)1(ii) of the Regulations.

     2. DISPOSITIONS NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THIS ARTICLE VOID. To the fullest
extent permitted by law, any attempted Disposition of a Membership Interest, or
any part thereof, not in compliance with this Article is null and void AB
INITIO.

                                   ARTICLE XII

                             ADMISSION OF ASSIGNEES

     1. RIGHTS OF ASSIGNEE. The Assignee of a Membership Interest has no right
to participate in the management of the business and affairs of the Company or
to become a Member. The Assignee is only entitled to receive the Distributions
and return of capital, and to be allocated the income, deductions, gain and loss
attributable to the Membership Interest in accordance with Section 2.3 of
Article X.

     2. ADMISSION OF SUBSTITUTE MEMBER. The Assignee of a Membership Interest
shall be admitted as a Substitute Member and admitted to all the rights of the
Member who initially assigned the Membership Interest only with the approval of
the Member and upon execution of an Admission Agreement. The Member may grant or
withhold the approval of such admission for the Assignee in its sole and
absolute discretion. If so admitted, the Substitute Member has all

                                      -17-
<Page>

the rights and powers and is subject to all the restrictions and liabilities of
the Member originally assigning the Membership Interest. The admission of a
Substitute Member, without more, shall not release the Member originally
assigning the Membership Interest from any liability to the Company that may
have existed prior to the approval.

     3. FORBIDDEN TRANSFERS AND ASSIGNMENTS. A Membership Interest may not be
transferred or assigned to a Related Company or a Benefit Plan Investor. A
Related Company may, however, be admitted as a Substitute Member; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Board of Managers shall have received an opinion of counsel to
the effect that such Related Company's "estate", as defined under Section 541(c)
of the United States Bankruptcy Code, would not be consolidated with the
"estate" of any of the Transferors or HPSC in a bankruptcy proceeding involving
any of the Transferors or HPSC.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                           DISSOLUTION AND WINDING UP

     1. DISSOLUTION. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs wound up,
upon the first to occur of the following events:

          1.1    the expiration of the term of the Company if and as provided in
Article II, Section 5; and

          1.2    the written consent of the Member, which consent the Member, by
executing this Agreement, agrees shall require (among other matters agreed upon
by the Member) and only become effective upon the satisfaction of the following
conditions: (a) the Managers, by unanimous written consent of the Board of
Managers (including the Independent Managers) shall consent to and approve the
dissolution of the Company pursuant to the terms set forth in the written
consent of the Member; and (b) so long as any of the Transaction Documents are
outstanding at the time of dissolution, the Majority Holders (as defined in the
Indenture) shall consent in writing to and approve the dissolution of the
Company pursuant to the terms set forth in the written consent of the Member.

          1.3    Any other event that terminates the continued membership of the
last remaining member of the Company in the Company unless the business of the
Company is continued in a manner permitted by this Agreement or the Act; and

          1.4    the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section
18-802 of the Act.

     2. EFFECT OF DISSOLUTION. Upon dissolution, the Company shall cease
carrying on business as distinguished from the winding up of the Company
business, but the Company shall not be terminated, and shall continue until the
winding up of the affairs of the Company is completed and the Certificate of
Cancellation of the Certificate of Formation has been filed with the Secretary
of State of the State.

                                      -18-
<Page>

     3. DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS ON DISSOLUTION. Upon the winding up of the
Company, the Company Property shall be distributed:

          3.1    To the Note Owners (so long as such Note Owners are not
Affiliates of the Company) and other creditors of the Company, including the
Members (if it is a creditor) to the extent permitted by law, in satisfaction of
Company Liabilities and the balance, if any, to the Member.

          3.2    Liquidation proceeds shall be paid within 60 days of the end of
the Company's taxable year or, if later, within 90 days after the date of
liquidation. Such distributions shall be in cash or Property (which need not be
distributed proportionately) or partly in both, as determined by the Managers.
References to Member in this Section 3.2 of Article XIII do not include Note
Owners that are classified as partners for income tax purposes under Article X.

     4. WINDING UP AND CERTIFICATE OF CANCELLATION. The winding up of the
Company shall be completed when all debts, liabilities, and obligations of the
Company have been paid and discharged or reasonably adequate provision therefor
has been made, and all of the remaining property and assets of the Company have
been distributed to the Member. Upon the completion of winding up of the
Company, a certificate of cancellation shall be delivered to the Secretary of
State of the State for filing. The certificate of cancellation shall set forth
the information required by the Act. The Company shall terminate when (i) all of
the assets of the Company, after payment of or due provision for all debts,
liabilities and obligations of the Company shall have been distributed to the
Member in the manner provided for in this Agreement and (ii) the Certificate of
Formation shall have been canceled in the manner required by the Act.

     5. RESIGNATION OF MEMBER. The Member shall be prohibited from resigning as
a member of the Company. The bankruptcy (as defined in the Act) of a Member or a
Special Member shall not cause such Member or Special Member to cease to be a
Member or Special Member of the Company and upon the occurrence of such an
event, the business of the Company shall continue without dissolution.

     6. CONTINUATION OF COMPANY. Upon the occurrence of any event that causes
the last remaining member of the Company to cease to be a member of the Company,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, the personal representative (which shall
be an entity and not a natural person) of such member is hereby authorized to,
and shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of the event that terminated the
continued membership of such member in the Company, agree in writing (i) to
continue the Company and (ii) to the admission of the personal representative or
its nominee or designee, as the case may be, as a Substitute Member of the
Company, effective as of the occurrence of the event that terminated the
continued membership of such member in the Company.

Upon the occurrence of any event that causes the last remaining Member to cease
to be a Member of the Company (other than upon an assignment by the Member of
all of its limited liability company interest in the Company and the admission
of the transferee pursuant to Article XII, Section 1), each Person acting as an
Independent Manager pursuant to this Agreement shall, without any action of any
Person and simultaneously with the last remaining Member ceasing to

                                      -19-
<Page>

be a Member of the Company, automatically be admitted to the Company as a member
of the Company (as such, a "SPECIAL MEMBER") and shall continue the Company
without dissolution. No Special Member may resign from the Company or transfer
its rights as Special Member unless (i) a successor Special Member has been
admitted to the Company as Special Member by executing a counterpart to this
Agreement, and (ii) such successor has also accepted its appointment as
Independent Manager pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, the Special
Members shall automatically cease to be members of the Company upon the
admission to the Company of a Substitute Member appointed by the personal
representative of the Person that was the last remaining Member. Each Special
Member shall be a Member of the Company that has no interest in the profits,
losses and capital of the Company and has no right to receive any distributions
of Company assets. Pursuant to Section 18-301 of the Act, a Special Member shall
not be required to make any capital contributions to the Company and shall not
receive a limited liability company interest in the Company. A Special Member,
in its capacity as Special Member, may not bind the Company. Except as required
by any mandatory provision of the Act, each Special Member, in its capacity as
Special Member, shall have no right to vote on, approve or otherwise consent to
any action by, or matter relating to, the Company, including, without
limitation, the merger, consolidation or conversion of the Company. In order to
implement the admission to the Company of each Special Member, each Person
acting as an Independent Manager pursuant to this Agreement shall execute a
counterpart to this Agreement. Prior to its admission to the Company as Special
Member, each Person acting as an Independent Manager pursuant to this Agreement
shall not be a Member of the Company.

                                   ARTICLE XIV

                                    AMENDMENT

     1. AGREEMENT MAY BE MODIFIED. This Agreement may be modified as permitted
in this Article XIV (as the same may from time to time be amended). No Member or
Manager shall have any vested rights in this Agreement which may not be modified

     2. AMENDMENT OR MODIFICATION OF AGREEMENT. Subject to Section 2.1(iv) of
Article III, this Agreement may be amended or modified from time to time only by
a written instrument adopted by the unanimous written consent of its Board of

Board of Managers shall have received a confirmation from the rating agencies
that such amendment or modification will not cause a downgrade or withdrawal of
the rating on the Notes, and (ii) the Board of Managers shall have received an
opinion of counsel to the effect that such amendment or modification shall not
affect the current status of the Company within the meaning of Statement 140
promulgated by Financial Accounting Standards Board.

                                   ARTICLE XV

     2. NO PARTNERSHIP INTENDED FOR NON-TAX PURPOSES. The Member has formed the
Company under the Act, and expressly does not intend hereby to form a
partnership under either the Delaware Revised Uniform Partnership Act nor the
Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act.

     3. RIGHTS OF CREDITORS AND THIRD PARTIES UNDER AGREEMENT. The Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders are intended third party beneficiaries of this
Agreement. Except and only to the extent provided herein or by applicable
statute, no creditor of the Company or any other third party shall have any
rights under this Agreement or any agreement between the Company and the Member
with respect to any Capital Contribution or otherwise.

laws).

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                     RECORDS

     1.   RECORDS TO BE MAINTAINED. The Company shall maintain the following
records at its registered office:

                                   ARTICLE VI

                           RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF MEMBER

     1.   SINGLE MEMBER COMPANY. It is intended that the Company shall be a
single member limited liability company, except for the admission of Special
Members, as provided in Article XIII.

     2.   MANAGEMENT RIGHTS. The Member shall be entitled to the sole vote on,
and right to approve any matter submitted for vote or approval of the Member.

     3.   LIABILITY OF MEMBER. The Member shall not be liable as such for the
liabilities of the Company. The failure of the Company to observe any
formalities or requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or management
of its business or affairs under this Agreement or the Act shall not be grounds
for imposing personal liability on the Member or Managers for liabilities of the
Company.

     4.   INDEMNIFICATION.

                     (a) No Member nor any officer, director, employee or agent
of the Company nor any employee, representative, agent or Affiliate of the
Member (collectively, the "COVERED PERSONS") shall be liable to the Company or
any other Person who is bound by this Agreement for any loss, damage or claim
incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered
Person in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably
believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Covered
Person by this Agreement, except that a Covered Person shall be liable for any
such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Covered Person's gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

                     (b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a
Covered Person shall be entitled to indemnification from the Company for any
loss, damage or claim incurred by such Covered Person by reason of any act or
omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of
the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of the
authority conferred on such Covered Person by this Agreement, except that no
Covered Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss,
damage or claim incurred by such Covered Person by reason of such Covered
Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or
omissions; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any indemnity under this Section 4 by the
Company shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company assets only, and
the Member shall not have personal liability on account thereof; and PROVIDED
FURTHER, that so long as any obligation is outstanding, no indemnity payment
from funds of the Company (as distinct from funds from other sources, such as
insurance) of any indemnity under this Section 4 shall be payable from amounts
allocable to any other Person pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

     5.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Member hereby represents and
warrants to the Company that: (a) it is duly organized, validly existing, and in
good standing under the laws of its state of organization and that it has full
organizational power to execute and agree to this Agreement and to perform its
obligations hereunder; (b) it is acquiring its interest in the

                                      -12-
<Page>

Company for its own account as an investment and without an intent to distribute
the interest; and (c) it acknowledges that the interests have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities
laws, and may not be resold or transferred without appropriate registration or
the availability of an exemption from such requirements.

     6.   CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.

               6.1.  The Member shall be entitled to enter into transactions
that may be considered to be competitive with, or a business opportunity that
may be beneficial to, the Company, it being expressly understood that the Member
may enter into transactions that are similar to the transactions into which the
Company may enter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Member shall account to
the Company and hold as trustee for it any property, profit, or benefit derived
by the Member in the conduct and winding up of the Company business or from a
use or appropriation by the Member of Company property including information
developed exclusively for the Company and opportunities expressly offered to the
Company.

               6.2.  A Member does not violate a duty or obligation to the
Company merely because the Member's conduct furthers the Member's own interest.
A Member may lend money to and transact other business with the Company. The
rights and obligations of the Member if it lends money to or transacts business
with the Company are the same as those of a Person who is not a Member, subject
to other applicable law. No transaction with the Company shall be voidable
solely because a Member has a direct or indirect interest in the transaction if
either the transaction is fair to the Company or the disinterested Managers, in
either case knowing the material facts of the transaction and the Member's
interest, authorize, approve, or ratify the transaction.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                                    MANAGERS

     2.   INDEPENDENT MANAGERS. At least two members of the Board of Managers
shall be Independent Managers.

     3.   TERM OF OFFICE AS MANAGERS. No Manager shall have any contractual
right to such position. Each Manager shall serve until he shall die, resign,
become incapable of serving or be removed.

     4.   AUTHORITY OF MEMBER TO BIND THE COMPANY (GENERAL POWERS). The Member
hereby agrees that only the Managers (acting, except as otherwise provided
herein, by majority vote) and authorized agents of the Company shall have the
authority to bind the Company. The Managers have the power, on behalf of the
Company, to do all things necessary or convenient to carry out the business of
the Company.

     5.   ACTIONS OF THE MANAGERS. Subject to the delegation of rights and
powers provided for herein, the Managers shall have the sole right to manage the
business of the Company and shall have all powers and rights necessary,
appropriate or advisable to effectuate and carry out the purposes and business
of the Company. Except as otherwise provided herein, the vote of two Managers
shall be necessary to approve any action by the Board of Managers. The Member,
by reason of its status as such, shall have no authority to act for or bind the
Company but shall have only the right to vote on and approve the actions herein
specified to be voted on or approved by the Member. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, including Section 18-1101(c) of the Act, the Managers shall
consider only the interests of the Company, including its respective creditors,
in acting or otherwise voting on the matters referred to in this Agreement.
Except as provided in this Agreement, in exercising their rights and performing
their duties under this Agreement, any Manager shall have a fiduciary duty of
loyalty and care similar to that of a director of a business corporation
organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

     6.   AUTHORITY TO SIGN DOCUMENTS. The Managers of the Company, and each of
them acting singly, are authorized to execute, acknowledge and deliver any
documents necessary, appropriate or advisable to effectuate and carry out the
purposes and business of the Company, and the execution and delivery by any of
such Managers of any such documents shall be conclusive evidence that such is
within the authority of such Manager so to do.

     7.   COMPENSATION OF MANAGERS. The Member hereby agrees that it shall pay
all fees and expenses incurred by each of the Independent Managers in the
discharge of its duties under this Agreement. The Managers shall be reimbursed
all reasonable expenses incurred in managing the Company. Except as otherwise
set forth herein under Section 3 of Article VI hereof, the Managers shall
receive no compensation.

                                      -14-
<Page>

     8.   MANAGERS' STANDARD OF CARE AND INDEMNIFICATION. The Managers' duty of
care in the discharge of the Managers' duties to the Company and the Member
shall be the same as a director's duty-of care in the discharging of its duties
under Delaware General Corporation law (subject to terms of Agreement).

     9.   REMOVAL OF MANAGERS. The Managers (other than the Independent
Managers) may be removed (with or without cause) by the affirmative vote of the
Member. The Independent Managers may be removed (with or without cause) by the
Indenture Trustee.

     10.  ADDITION OR REPLACEMENT OF MANAGERS. The Member may elect new Managers
or replace existing Managers, subject to Section 1 of this Article VII;
provided, however, that there shall be no change of or appointment of new
Managers without the prior confirmation from the rating agencies then rating the
Notes that such change will not result in either a downgrade or a withdrawal of
any of the then current ratings of the outstanding Notes; and provided, further,
however, that a new Independent Manager may be appointed only by the Indenture
Trustee.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                       CONTRIBUTIONS AND CAPITAL ACCOUNTS

     1.   CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS. The Initial Member shall make the Initial
Capital Contribution described for the Initial Member on Exhibit A at the time
and on the terms specified on Exhibit A. If no time for contribution is
specified, the Capital Contributions shall be made upon the filing of the
Certificate of Formation. The value of the Capital Contributions shall be as set
forth on Exhibit A. No interest shall accrue on any Capital Contribution and the
Member shall have no right to withdraw or be repaid any Capital Contribution
except as provided in this Agreement.

     2.   ADDITIONAL CONTRIBUTIONS. In addition to the Initial Capital
Contributions, the Managers may, but are not required to, determine from time to
time that additional contributions are needed to enable the Company to conduct
its business. Upon making such a determination, the Managers shall give Notice
to the Member in writing at least two Business Days prior to the date on which
such contribution is requested such Notice shall set forth the amount of
additional contribution requested, the purpose for which the contribution is
requested, and the date by which the Member may contribute. The Member shall not
be obligated to make any such additional contributions.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                  DISTRIBUTIONS

     1.   INTERIM DISTRIBUTIONS. From time to time, the Managers shall determine
in their reasonable judgment to what extent, if any, the Company's cash on hand
exceeds the current and anticipated needs, including, without limitation, needs
for operating expenses, debt service, acquisitions, reserves, and mandatory
Distributions, if any. To the extent such excess exists, the Managers may make
Distributions to the Member in accordance with the terms of this

                                      -15-
<Page>

Agreement and the Indenture. Such Distributions shall be in cash or Property
(which need not be distributed proportionately) or partly in both, as determined
by the Managers.

     2.   LIMITATIONS ON DISTRIBUTIONS. No Distribution shall be declared and
paid unless, after the distribution is made, the assets of the Company are in
excess of all liabilities of the Company, except liabilities to its Member and
such distribution complies with applicable law.

                                    ARTICLE X

                                      TAXES

     1.   DISREGARDED ENTITY TREATMENT. The Initial Member intends that, for
federal income tax purposes, the Company shall be disregarded as an entity and
its assets shall be treated as owned in whole by the Initial Member. The
Managers and the Initial Member agree that they will not file an election to be
treated as an association with the Internal Revenue Service or otherwise take
any action contrary to the foregoing intention except as provided in Section 2
of this Article X.

     2.   CERTAIN STANDBY PROVISIONS. If appropriate tax authorities require the
Company to be treated as other than a disregarded entity for federal income tax
purposes on account of any Notes being characterized as equity and not debt,
then the Initial Member and the Managers agree that the Company shall be treated
as a partnership for such purposes, and the following provisions shall apply and
the Managers shall perform or cause to be performed the following actions:

               2.1.  A separate capital account (a "TAX CAPITAL ACCOUNT") shall
be established and maintained for each Member and each Note Owner that is
classified as a partner of such partnership for income tax purposes
(collectively, "PARTNERS" and individually, "PARTNER") in accordance with
Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). No Partner shall be entitled to
interest on its Tax Capital Account or any capital contribution made to the
Company.

               2.2.  No Partner shall be required to restore any deficit balance
in its Tax Capital Account, and no Partner shall be liable for the return of the
Tax Capital Account of, or of any capital contribution made to the Company by,
another Partner.

               2.3.  Income, deductions, gain and loss shall be allocated among
the Partners for income tax purposes in a reasonable manner consistent with the
economic substance of their respective rights under the Indenture and in
accordance with Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704 of the Code.

               2.4.  The Company shall deliver to the Partners, as is required
by the Code, the applicable Treasury Regulations or otherwise, such information
as may be required to enable the Partners to prepare their tax returns.

               2.5.  The Company shall prepare all applicable tax returns as may
be required by law on the basis of such fiscal year and accounting methods as
the Managers shall reasonably determine. The Managers shall sign and file any
and all such tax returns, unless applicable law

                                      -16-
<Page>

requires a Partner to sign such documents, in which case such returns shall be
signed by the Initial Member.

               2.6.  To the extent one may be required, the Initial Member shall
be the "tax matters partner" of the Company pursuant to the Code and the
applicable Treasury Regulations.

               2.7.  The Company shall make such elections as may from time to
time be required or appropriate under any applicable statute or rule or
regulation thereunder so as to maintain the Company's characterization as a
partnership for federal income tax purposes, and under no circumstances will the
Company, the Initial Member or any Manager file an election for the Company to
be treated as an association with the Internal Revenue Service.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                       DISPOSITION OF MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS

     1.   DISPOSITION. The Initial Member or an Assignee may dispose of all, but
not less than all of the Initial Member's or Assignee's Membership Interest upon
compliance with this Section 1. No Membership Interest shall be Disposed of:

               1.1.  if such disposition, alone or when combined with other
transactions, would result in a termination of the Company within the meaning of
Section 708 of the Code;

               1.2.  without an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Managers
that such assignment is subject to an effective registration under, or exempt
from the registration requirements of, the applicable state and federal
securities laws;

               1.3.  unless and until the Company receives from the Assignee the
information and agreements that the Managers may reasonably require, including
but not limited to any taxpayer identification number and any agreement that may
be required by any Taxing Jurisdiction; and

               1.4.  unless such disposition is to a single Assignee, and if
such Assignee is a partnership, grantor trust, S corporation or other
"flow-through" entity for tax purposes, such Assignee has provided an opinion of
counsel satisfactory to the Managers that, pursuant to Section 1.7704-1(h)(3) of
the Regulations, owners of such Assignee shall not be treated as partners in the
Company for purposes of Section 1.7704-1(h)1(ii) of the Regulations.

     2.   DISPOSITIONS NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THIS ARTICLE VOID. To the fullest
extent permitted by law, any attempted Disposition of a Membership Interest, or
any part thereof, not in compliance with this Article is null and void ab
initio.

                                   ARTICLE XII

                             ADMISSION OF ASSIGNEES

     1.   RIGHTS OF ASSIGNEE. The Assignee of a Membership Interest has no right
to participate in the management of the business and affairs of the Company or
to become a

                                      -17-
<Page>

Member. The Assignee is only entitled to receive the Distributions and return of
capital, and to be allocated the income, deductions, gain and loss attributable
to the Membership Interest in accordance with Section 2.3 of Article X.

     2.   ADMISSION OF SUBSTITUTE MEMBER. The Assignee of a Membership Interest
shall be admitted as a Substitute Member and admitted to all the rights of the
Member who initially assigned the Membership Interest only with the approval of
the Member and upon execution of an Admission Agreement. The Member may grant or
withhold the approval of such admission for the Assignee in its sole and
absolute discretion. If so admitted, the Substitute Member has all the rights
and powers and is subject to all the restrictions and liabilities of the Member
originally assigning the Membership Interest. The admission of a Substitute
Member, without more, shall not release the Member originally assigning the
Membership Interest from any liability to the Company that may have existed
prior to the approval.

     3.   FORBIDDEN TRANSFERS AND ASSIGNMENTS. A Membership Interest may not be
transferred or assigned to a Related Company or a Benefit Plan Investor. A
Related Company may, however, be admitted as a Substitute Member; provided,
however, that the Board of Managers shall have received an opinion of counsel to
the effect that such Related Company's "estate", as defined under Section 541(c)
of the United States Bankruptcy Code, would not be consolidated with the
"estate" of any of the Transferors or HPSC in a bankruptcy proceeding involving
any of the Transferors or HPSC.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                           DISSOLUTION AND WINDING UP

     1.   DISSOLUTION. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs wound up,
upon the first to occur of the following events:

               1.1.  the expiration of the term of the Company if and as
provided in Article II, Section 5; and

               1.2.  the written consent of the Member, which consent the
Member, by executing this Agreement, agrees shall require (among other matters
agreed upon by the Member) and only become effective upon the satisfaction of
the following conditions: (a) the Managers, by unanimous written consent of the
Board of Managers (including the Independent Managers) shall consent to and
approve the dissolution of the Company pursuant to the terms set forth in the
written consent of the Member; and (b) so long as any of the Transaction
Documents are outstanding at the time of dissolution, the Majority Holders (as
defined in the Indenture) shall consent in writing to and approve the
dissolution of the Company pursuant to the terms set forth in the written
consent of the Member.

               1.3.  any other event that terminates the continued membership of
the last remaining member of the Company in the Company unless the business of
the Company is continued in a manner permitted by this Agreement or the Act; and

                                      -18-
<Page>

               1.4.  the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section
18-802 of the Act.

     2.   EFFECT OF DISSOLUTION. Upon dissolution, the Company shall cease
carrying on business as distinguished from the winding up of the Company
business, but the Company shall not be terminated, and shall continue until the
winding up of the affairs of the Company is completed and the Certificate of
Cancellation of the Certificate of Formation has been filed with the Secretary
of State of the State.

     3.   DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS ON DISSOLUTION. Upon the winding up of the
Company, the Company Property shall be distributed:

               3.1.  To the Noteholders (so long as such Noteholders are not
Affiliates of the Company) and other creditors of the Company, including the
Members (if it is a creditor) to the extent permitted by law, in satisfaction of
Company Liabilities and the balance, if any, to the Member.

               3.2.  Liquidation proceeds shall be paid within 60 days of the
end of the Company's taxable year or, if later, within 90 days after the date of
liquidation. Such distributions shall be in cash or Property (which need not be
distributed proportionately) or partly in both, as determined by the Managers.
References to Member in this Section 3.2 of Article XIII do not include
Noteholders that are classified as partners for income tax purposes under
Article X.

     4.   WINDING UP AND CERTIFICATE OF CANCELLATION. The winding up of the
Company shall be completed when all debts, liabilities, and obligations of the
Company have been paid and discharged or reasonably adequate provision therefor
has been made, and all of the remaining property and assets of the Company have
been distributed to the Member. Upon the completion of winding up of the
Company, a certificate of cancellation shall be delivered to the Secretary of
State of the State for filing. The certificate of cancellation shall set forth
the information required by the Act. The Company shall terminate when (i) all of
the assets of the Company, after payment of or due provision for all debts,
liabilities and obligations of the Company shall have been distributed to the
Member in the manner provided for in this Agreement and (ii) the Certificate of
Formation shall have been canceled in the manner required by the Act.

     5.   RESIGNATION OF MEMBER. The Member shall be prohibited from resigning
as a member of the Company. The bankruptcy (as defined in the Act) of a Member
or a Special Member shall not cause such Member or Special Member to cease to be
a Member or Special Member of the Company and upon the occurrence of such an
event, the business of the Company shall continue without dissolution.

     6.   CONTINUATION OF COMPANY. Upon the occurrence of any event that causes
the last remaining member of the Company to cease to be a member of the Company,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, the personal representative (which shall
be an entity and not a natural person) of such member is hereby authorized to,
and shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of the event that terminated the
continued membership of such member in the Company, agree in writing (i) to
continue the Company and (ii) to the admission of the personal representative or
its

                                      -19-
<Page>

nominee or designee, as the case may be, as a Substitute Member of the Company,
effective as of the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued
membership of such member in the Company.

Upon the occurrence of any event that causes the last remaining Member to cease
to be a member of the Company (other than upon an assignment by the Member of
all of its limited liability company interest in the Company and the admission
of the transferee pursuant to Article XII, Section 1), each Person acting as an
Independent Manager pursuant to this Agreement shall, without any action of any
Person and simultaneously with the last remaining Member ceasing to be a member
of the Company, automatically be admitted to the Company as a Member of the
Company (as such, a "Special Member") and shall continue the Company without
dissolution. No Special Member may resign from the Company or transfer its
rights as Special Member unless (i) a successor Special Member has been admitted
to the Company as Special Member by executing a counterpart to this Agreement,
and (ii) such successor has also accepted its appointment as Independent Manager
pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, the Special Members shall
automatically cease to be members of the Company upon the admission to the
Company of a Substitute Member appointed by the personal representative of the
Person that was the last remaining Member. Each Special Member shall be a Member
of the Company that has no interest in the profits, losses and capital of the
Company and has no right to receive any distributions of Company assets.
Pursuant to Section 18-301 of the Act, a Special Member shall not be required to
make any capital contributions to the Company and shall not receive a limited
liability company interest in the Company. A Special Member, in its capacity as
Special Member, may not bind the Company. Except as required by any mandatory
provision of the Act, each Special Member, in its capacity as Special Member,
shall have no right to vote on, approve or otherwise consent to any action by,
or matter relating to, the Company, including, without limitation, the merger,
consolidation or conversion of the Company. In order to implement the admission
to the Company of each Special Member, each Person acting as an Independent
Manager pursuant to this Agreement shall execute a counterpart to this
Agreement. Prior to its admission to the Company as Special Member, each Person
acting as an Independent Manager pursuant to this Agreement shall not be a
Member of the Company.

                                   ARTICLE XIV

     2.   AMENDMENT OR MODIFICATION OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement may be amended

confirmation from the rating agencies that such amendment or modification will
not cause a downgrade or withdrawal of the rating on the Notes, and (ii) the
Board of Managers shall have received an opinion of counsel to the effect that
such

                                      -20-
<Page>

amendment or modification shall not affect the current status of the Company
within the meaning of Statement 140 promulgated by Financial Accounting
Standards Board.

                                   ARTICLE XV

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

     1.   ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement represents the entire agreement
between the Member and the Company.

     2.   NO PARTNERSHIP INTENDED FOR NON-TAX PURPOSES. The Member has formed
the Company under the Act, and expressly does not intend hereby to form a
partnership under either the Delaware Revised Uniform Partnership Act nor the
Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act.

     3.   RIGHTS OF CREDITORS AND THIRD PARTIES UNDER AGREEMENT. The Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders are intended third party beneficiaries of this
Agreement. Except and only to the extent provided herein or by applicable
statute, no creditor of the Company or any other third party shall have any
rights under this Agreement or any agreement between the Company and the Member
with respect to any Capital Contribution or otherwise.

     4.   GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed
under, the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard to principles of
conflict of laws).
