If the applicable Property is subject to more than one liability, only that portion of the Property's adjusted tax basis which is allocated to the applicable Member Nonrecourse Debt under the immediately succeeding sentence shall be used to compute Member Minimum Gain. The adjusted basis of Company Property subject to two or more liabilities of equal priority shall be allocated among such liabilities in proportion to their outstanding balances, and the adjusted basis of Company Property subject to two or more liabilities of unequal priority shall be allocated to the liabilities of subordinate priority only to the extent of the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of such Property over the aggregate outstanding balance of all liabilities of superior priority.

Reg. Sec. 1.752-2, and shall be treated as a Nonrecourse Liability to the extent that no Member (or related party) bears the economic risk of a loss, and as a Member Nonrecourse Debt to the extent that the applicable Member (or related party) bears the economic risk of loss. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be determined in accordance with Treas. Reg.

If the net increase in the amount of Member Minimum Gain during any taxable year exceeds the Available Member Nonrecourse Debt Deductions, then the excess shall be carried over and treated as Member Minimum Gain of the applicable Member for the immediately succeeding taxable year and all taxable years thereafter until the cumulative Member Nonrecourse Debt Deductions for the applicable Member shall be equal to the sum of all net increases in Member Minimum Gain of the applicable Member for all Company years ending after the date of this Operating Agreement.

If property is subject to more than one liability, only that portion of the property's adjusted tax basis which is allocated to a Nonrecourse Liability under the immediately succeeding sentence shall be used to compute Minimum Gain. The adjusted basis of Company Property subject to two or more liabilities of equal priority shall be allocated among such liabilities in proportion to their outstanding balances, and the adjusted basis of Company Property subject to liabilities of unequal priority shall be allocated to the liabilities of subordinate priority only to the extent of the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of such property over the aggregate outstanding balance of all liabilities of superior priority. The relative priorities of any liability or any group of liabilities shall be determined by reference to all applicable facts and circumstances including, without limitation, all agreements by and between applicable creditors and all applicable corporate, commercial, bankruptcy and other laws.

If, and to the extent that the Manager(s) determine in good faith that the required funds cannot be borrowed on reasonable terms, the Manager(s) may then request that the Members contribute to the Company their respective shares of such Capital Shortfall by providing each Member with written notice of such request ("Funds Request"). Each Member may, but is not required to, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Funds Request ("Contribution Date"), contribute to the Company its proportionate share of the additional capital ("Additional Capital Contribution") required pursuant to such Capital Shortfall, which share shall bear the same ratio to the total capital required by such Capital Shortfall as such Member's Sharing Ratio bears to the total Sharing Ratios of all Members.

Upon any Contributing Member's request, the Company shall return such Additional Capital Contribution to such Contributing Member and such Contributing Member may retain such amount until all Noncontributing Members shall have made the Additional Capital Contributions specified to be made by them in the Funds Request pursuant to Paragraph 3.08(b).

 

 

Exhibit 10.2 -- Page 14

 

 

	
  

	
Following a Contribution Failure, any Contributing Member who does not request a return of his or her contribution may elect to either lend the Deficiency to a Noncontributing Member pursuant to Paragraph 3.08(c)(i) or contribute the Deficiency to the Company and dilute the Interest of a Noncontributing Member pursuant to Paragraph 3.08(c)(ii). If there is more than one Noncontributing Member, any Contributing Member must elect the same alternative with respect to each Noncontributing Member. Further, if there is more than one Contributing Member, the Contributing Members must each elect the same alternative with respect to the Deficiency of a particular Noncontributing Member without any obligation to elect either of such alternatives with respect to any other Noncontributing Member:

 

	
  

	
(i)

	
All but not less than all of the Deficiency may be paid by such Contributing Member (in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 3.08(c) (iii)) on behalf of the Non contributing Member, in which event the Capital Account of such Noncontributing Member shall be credited with the amount of such contribution and such amount shall constitute a debt ("Contribution Loan") owed by such Noncontributing Member to such Contributing Member. A Contribution Loan shall bear interest at the prime commercial lending rate of interest announced and as adjusted from time to time by the First National Bank of Chicago ("Prime Rate") plus one per cent (1%) per annum (but not to exceed the maximum rate permitted by law) until paid and shall be payable (with interest as aforesaid) only out of distributions (as hereinafter provided). If a Contribution Loan is outstanding to a Noncontributing Member, then any distribution to be made by the Company pursuant to Paragraph 4.08, 4.09 or 10.03 to the Noncontributing Member shall be deemed received by the Noncontributing Member and shall instead be paid to the Contributing Member, to be applied against such Contribution Loan, first to interest and then to principal, until the full amount of such Contribution Loan, including accrued interest, is paid. If more than one Contribution Loan to the same Noncontributing Member is outstanding at the time of any distribution, then such distribution shall be made in payment first of accrued, unpaid interest and then principal to the Contributing Member or Members in order of priority based on the inverse chronological order in which the Contribution Loans were made (i.e., the most recent Contribution Loan to be paid first in full). If more than one Contribution Loan was made to the same Noncontributing Member with respect to the same Deficiency, then such Contribution Loans shall be paid pro rata (on the basis of the amount outstanding of such loans) to the Contributing Members and otherwise in accordance with the preceding sentence. All Contribution Loans, with interest as aforesaid, shall be nonrecourse as to the Noncontributing Member, and shall be secured by the Noncontributing Member's Membership Interest, and the Noncontributing Member hereby grants a security interest in such Membership Interest to the Contributing Member and hereby irrevocably appoints each Contributing Member, and any of their respective officers, as its attorney-in-fact with full power to prepare and execute any documents, instruments and agreements, including, but not limited to, any note evidencing the Contribution Loans, and such Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, continuation statements, and other security instruments as may be appropriate to perfect and continue such security interest in favor of the Contributing Member or Members. Said security interest shall terminate upon repayment in full of the principal and interest of the Contribution Loans. Any Additional Capital Contribution so contributed by the Contributing Member or Members on behalf of a Noncontributing Member shall, for purposes of Paragraph 3, be deemed made by the Noncontributing Member; or

 

 

Exhibit 10.2 -- Page 15

 

 

	
  

	
(ii)

Reg. Sec. 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member's share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treas. Reg. Sec. 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to the Members pursuant thereto.

If any Member's Capital Account is unexpectedly adjusted for, or such Member is unexpectedly allocated or there is unexpectedly distributed to such Member any item described in Treas. Reg. Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4)-(6), and such treatment creates or increases a Member's Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, then without regard to the allocations provided in Paragraphs 4.01 and 4.02, the Company shall allocate to such Member items of Company income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Company income, including gross income, and gain for such year) in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to this Paragraph 4.03(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that the Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Article 4 have been tentatively made as if this Paragraph 4.03(c) were not in this Operating Agreement.

 

	
(d)

	
Gross Income Allocation. In the event that a Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Company fiscal year which is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount the Member is obligated to restore pursuant to any provision of this Operating Agreement, and (ii) the amount the Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to Treas. Reg.

Sec. 1.704-1(b). Notwithstanding any other provision of Article 4 (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating other profits, losses and items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of other profits, losses and other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Member shall be equal to the amount that would have been allocated if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.

 

Paragraph 4.05 Code Section 704(c) Allocations. In accordance with Code Sec. 704(c), income, gain, loss and deduction concerning any Contributed Property shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members to take account of any variation between the adjusted tax basis of such property and the Net Agreed Value of such property upon contribution.

Allocations under this Paragraph 4.05 are solely for purposes of federal income taxes and shall not affect or be taken into account in computing any Member's Capital Account.

Unless the Code requires otherwise, any Profits or Losses allocable to an Interest which has been transferred during any year shall be allocated among the Persons who were holders of such Interest during such year by taking into account their varying interests during such taxable year in accordance with Code Sec. 706(d) and using any convention selected by the Manager(s).

Paragraph 5.03 Restrictions on Transfer of Membership Interests.

 

	
(a)

	
Voluntary Transfer. If a Member intends to Transfer any Membership Interests he or she owns to any Person other than the Company, he or she shall give ninety (90) days prior written notice to the Company and the Remaining Members of his or her intention to do so ("Transfer Notice"). The Transfer Notice, in addition to stating the Member's intention to Transfer his or her Membership Interests, shall state: (i) the number of Units he or she desires to Transfer; (ii) the name, business and residence address of the proposed transferee; (iii) whether the proposed Transfer constitutes a Permitted Transfer and, if so, the relationship between the transferor and the transferee; and (iv) whether or not the proposed Transfer is made at arm's length for full and valuable consideration and, if so, the amount of the consideration and the other terms of the sale. If the proposed Transfer of the Membership Interests identified in the Transfer Notice qualifies as a Permitted Transfer, the Company and the Remaining Members shall not have an option to purchase the Transferor's Interest, and instead the provisions of Paragraph 5.03(e) and (g) of this Operating Agreement shall apply. If, how ever, the proposed Transfer of the Membership Interests identified in the Transfer Notice does not qualify as a Permitted Transfer, then: (1) for sixty (60) days following the Company's receipt of the Transfer Notice (the "Company Option Period"), the Company shall have the option to purchase all or any portion of the Membership Interests which are proposed to be transferred, for the price and upon the terms set forth in Paragraph 5.03(j); and (2) if and to the extent that the Company does not exercise its option to purchase such Membership Interests within said sixty (60) day period, the Remaining Members, for a period of fifteen (15) days following the expiration of the Company Option Period (such period to be subject to extension pursuant to Paragraph 5.03(c)(i)), shall have an option to purchase all of the Membership Interests which have not been purchased by the Company, at the price and upon the terms set forth in Paragraph 5.03(j).

 

	
(b)

	
Involuntary Transfers. Except in the case of a Permitted Transfer, in the event of the death, incompetency, bankruptcy, withdrawal or dissolution of a Member (a "Withdrawing Member"), (i) for a period of ninety (90) days after the Company receives actual notice thereof, the Company shall have the option to purchase all or any portion of the Withdrawing Member's Interest, for the price and upon the terms set forth in Paragraph 5.03(j), and (ii) if the Company does not exercise its option to purchase all of such Withdrawing Member's Interest, then for a period ending fifteen (15) days after the close of the Company's 90-day option period, the Remaining Members shall have an option to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Withdrawing Member's Interest at the price set forth in Paragraph 5.03(j)(i)(2) and upon the same terms as provided for an option regarding a voluntary transfer in Paragraph 5.03(a) of this Operating Agreement. If the Company and the Remaining Members do not exercise their option, the provisions of Paragraph 5.03(e) and (g) shall apply to the Withdrawing Member and his or her Representative, if any.

(c)

	
Exercise of Options.

 

 

	
  

	
(i)

	
More than One Remaining Member. Irrespective of any contrary provision of this Operating Agreement, if there is an option to purchase Membership Interests under this Operating Agreement, and there is more than one Remaining Member who has such an option, the option period specified in the paragraph of this Operating Agreement which grants the option in question to the Remaining Members ("Original Option Period"), shall be extended for ten (10) additional days. The ten (10)-day period of extension of the Original Option Period shall be referred to in this Operating Agreement as the "Extension Period." All purchase options granted to the Remaining Members in this Operating Agreement shall be subject to the following provisions:

 

	
  

	
(A)

	
Initial Option. During the Original Option Period, each Remaining Member shall have the option to purchase that number of Units subject to the option ("Option Units") which bears the same proportion to the total number of Option Units as the number of Units owned by such Remaining Member at the commencement of the Original Option Period bears to the total number of Units which all such Remaining Members then owned.

 

	
  

	
(B)

	
Additional Option. If any Remaining Member fails to exercise his or her option to purchase his or her proportionate number of Option Units, each Remaining Member who exercised his or her option to purchase his or her proportionate number of Option Units shall, during the Extension Period, have an option to purchase those Option Units with respect to which a Remaining Member or Members have failed to exercise their respective options to purchase. If only one Remaining Member exercised his or her initial option to purchase his or her proportionate number of Option Units, said Remaining Member shall have the option to purchase all of the unpurchased Option Units. If two or more Remaining Members exercised their initial options to purchase their respective proportionate number of Option Units, each such Remaining Member shall have the option to purchase that number of unpurchased Option Units which bears the same proportion to the total number of unpurchased Option Units as the number of Units which each such Remaining Member owned at the commencement of the Original Option Period bears to the total number of Units which all such Remaining Members then owned; provided, however, that all the Remaining Members may by agreement among themselves determine the proportions in which some or all of them may exercise the options granted in this Paragraph.

 

 

Exhibit 10.2 -- Page 23

 

 

	
  

	
(ii)

Exercise of any option shall be subject to compliance with the requirements of Paragraph 5.03(e).

 

	
  

	
(iii)

	
Voting To Exercise. A Transferor, in his or her capacity as a Member, shall not be entitled to vote in the Company's determination of whether to exercise any purchase option granted by this Operating Agreement or with respect to any decisions or actions involving the purchase option or the consummation of the exercise thereof.

 

	
(d)

	
Nonexercise of Options. If the Remaining Members and the Company fail to exercise the purchase options granted by Paragraph 5.03(a) of this Operating Agreement, the Transferor may, within thirty (30) days following the expiration of the option period for the Remaining Members, Transfer the Interests to the transferee named in the Transfer Notice, subject to the terms of this Operating Agreement; provided, however, that such Transfer must be upon the terms and for the consideration specified in said Transfer Notice. If the Transfer is not upon the terms or is not to the transferee stated in the Transfer Notice, or is not made within said thirty (30) day period, or if the Transferor, after the Transfer, reacquires all or any portion of the transferred Units, the Transfer shall be void and without legal or other effect.

(f)

	
Effectiveness of Assignment. No Transfer shall be effective unless and until the requirements of Paragraph 5.03(e) are satisfied. The Transfer by a Member of all or part of his or her Interest shall become effective on the first day of the calendar month immediately succeeding the month in which all of the requirements of this Paragraph 5.03 have been met, and the Manager(s) have received from the Transferor a transfer fee sufficient to cover all expenses of the Company connected with such transfer; provided, however, that the Manager(s) may elect to waive this fee in their sole discretion.

(iv)

	
The admission is approved by a majority of the Manager(s) who are also Members ("Member-Manager(s)"); or, if there are no Member-Manager(s) (or the Transferor is the only Member-Manager), then the admission is approved by all of the remaining Members in the Company other than the Transferor; and

If the parties agree, the Second Appraisal shall be used to determine the value of the Company Property. If the two appraisals are performed and the parties cannot agree within ten (10) days which of the appraisals accurately reflects the value of the Company Property, then the two appraisers selected under this subparagraph shall select a Qualified Appraiser to conduct a third appraisal ("Third Appraisal") of the fair market value of the Company Property.

The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Indemnified Person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, that the Indemnified Person had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.
