2.             Section 4.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding a new Section 4.1(e) thereto, which shall read as follows:

 

“(e)  Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement to the contrary (including Section 4.1(b)(ii) and Section 4.1(b)(iii)):

 

(i)            Cash that is contributed to the Company by the Members pursuant to this Section 4.1(e) shall be considered Capital Contributions under the Agreement for all purposes.

During the Interim Period, at each time when the Company requires additional Capital Contributions consistent with the Approved Budget, the Board, in accordance with this Agreement, shall issue a Capital Call to the Members which shall set forth the following information: (1) the aggregate amount of capital being called; (2) the portion of such called capital which would have otherwise been required to be contributed to the Company by the Class A Members pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(ii) had the Agreement not been amended to include this Section 4.1(e) (such amount, the “Class A Amount”); (3) a statement that the Class A Amount is being called from the Class B Members pursuant this Section 4.1(e); and (4) the aggregate Class A Amounts that have been contributed by the Class B Members as of the date of such Capital Call.  The Class B Members shall contribute to the Company the amount of Capital Contributions so requested, including the Class A Amount, in accordance with their respective Class B Percentage Interests, within fifteen Business Days after receipt of such Capital Call.

SPECIFIC TERMS IN THIS EXHIBIT HAVE BEEN REDACTED BECAUSE CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT FOR THOSE TERMS HAS BEEN REQUESTED. THE REDACTED MATERIAL HAS BEEN SEPERATELY FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, AND THE TERMS HAVE BEEN MARKED AT THE APPROPRIATE PLACE WITH TWO ASTERISKS (**).

 

(iii)          Notwithstanding Section 4.7, the Investment Balance of the Class B Members shall be increased by the aggregate amount of Capital Contributions, including all Class A Amounts, contributed by the Class B Members pursuant to this Section 4.1(e) (such aggregate amount of Class A Amounts contributed by the Class B Members, the “Make Up Contribution Amount”).

 

(iv)          On or no more than 15 Business Days prior to the end of the Interim Period, the Company shall send the Class A Members a written notice notifying the Class A Members of the Make Up Contribution Amount.  Within 15 Business Days following the delivery of such written notice, but in any event by no later than March 15, 2013 (the “Make Up Contribution Date”), the Class A Members shall, without the requirement of any further notice by the Company, make additional cash Capital Contributions to the Company in an amount equal to the Make Up Contribution Amount.  Notwithstanding Section 4.7, the Investment Balance of the Class A Members shall be increased by the Capital Contributions made pursuant to this Section 4.1(e)(iv).

 

(v)           The provisions of Section 4.2 shall apply with respect to any Member who fails to contribute any capital to the Company that is required to be so contributed pursuant to this Section 4.1(e).

 

(vi)          Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement to the contrary, and without any further approval of the Board or the Members, including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 6.1(b), 6.12(a) and 8.1, promptly following the contribution of the Make Up Contribution Amount to the Company by the Class A Members pursuant to Section 4.1(e)(iv), the Company shall make a special distribution to the Class B Members for capital reimbursement in an amount equal to the Make Up Contribution Amount less $15,000,000 (such distribution, the “Special Distribution”).  Upon completion of the Special Distribution, the Investment Balance of the Class B Members shall be reduced by the amount of the Special Distribution.

 

(vii)         Following the end of the Interim Period, the existing provisions of the Agreement, without reference to this Section 4.1(e), shall continue to apply with respect to all additional cash Capital Contributions to the Company, after giving effect to any changes to the Members’ Investment Balances described in this Section 4.1(e), provided that the obligations of the Class A Members to contribute additional cash Capital Contributions equal to the Make Up Contribution Amount and the obligations of the Company to make the Special Distribution to the Class B Members shall remain in full force and effect until such obligations are fully satisfied.

 

(viii)        Section 5.6 shall not apply to the Capital Contributions contemplated by this Section 4.1(e).

 

(ix)           For the avoidance of doubt, during and after the Interim Period, the Overfunded Capital Amount, Overfunded Capital Base Amount, Overfunded Capital
