 Section 3. Distributions.

 2 

 
Period or Periods there shall be funds of the Company legally available for the payment of such distributions, and shall be payable quarterly, when, as and
if authorized by the Managing Member, in arrears on Distribution Payment Dates, commencing on the first Distribution Payment Date after the Issue Date. Each such distribution shall be payable in arrears to the holders of record of Series A Preferred
Units, as they appear on the records of the Company at the close of business on such record dates, not less than 10 nor more than 50 days preceding such Distribution Payment Dates thereof, as shall be fixed by the Managing Member. Accrued and unpaid
distributions on the Series A Preferred Units for any past Distribution Periods may be declared and paid at any time and for such interim periods, without reference to any regular Distribution Payment Date, to holders of record on such date, not
less than 10 nor more than 50 days preceding the payment date thereof, as may be fixed by the Managing Member. 
  
 (b) The amount of distributions payable for each full Distribution Period for the Series A Preferred Units shall be computed by dividing
the annual distribution rate by four. The amount of dividends payable for the initial Distribution Period, or any other period shorter or longer than a full Distribution Period, on the Series A Preferred Units shall be computed on the basis of
twelve 30-day months and a 360-day year. Holders of Series A Preferred Units shall not be entitled to any dividends, whether payable in cash, property or stock, in excess of cumulative dividends, as herein provided, on the Series A Preferred Units.
No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any distribution payment or payments on the Series A Preferred Units that may be in arrears. 
  
 (c) So long as any Series A Preferred Units are outstanding, no full distributions, except as described in
the immediately following sentence, shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment on any class or series of Parity Units, as to distributions, for any period unless full cumulative distributions have been or contemporaneously are declared and
paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for such payment on the Series A Preferred Units for all past Distribution Periods terminating on or prior to the distribution payment date on such class or series of Parity
Units. When distributions are not paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not so set apart), as aforesaid, all distribution declared upon the Series A Preferred Units and all distributions declared upon any other class or series
of Parity Units, as to distributions, shall be declared ratably in proportion to the respective amounts of distributions accumulated and unpaid on the Series A Preferred Units and accumulated and unpaid on such Parity Units. 
  
 (d) So long as any Series A Preferred Units are outstanding,
no distributions (other than distributions paid solely in shares of, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of, Fully Junior Units) shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment or other distribution declared or made
upon Junior Units, nor shall any Junior Units or Parity Units be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for any consideration (or any moneys be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any Junior Units or Parity Units)
by the Company, directly or indirectly (except by conversion into or exchange for Fully Junior Units), unless in each case (i) the full cumulative distributions on all outstanding Series A 

  

 3 

 
Preferred Units and any other Parity Units of the Company shall have been paid or declared and set apart for payment for all past Distribution Periods with
respect to the Series A Preferred Units and all past distribution periods with respect to such Parity Units and (ii) sufficient funds shall have been paid or declared and set apart for the payment of the distribution for the current Distribution
Period with respect to the Series A Preferred Units and the current distribution period with respect to such Parity Units. Any distribution payment on the Series A Preferred Units shall first be credited against the earliest accrued but unpaid
distribution due which remains payable. 
  
 (e)
No distributions on Series A Preferred Units shall be authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation or declared and paid or set apart for payment by the Corporation at such time as the terms and provisions of any agreement of the
Corporation, including any agreement relating to its indebtedness for borrowed money, prohibits such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment or provides that such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment would constitute a breach
thereof or a default thereunder, or if such declaration or payment shall be restricted or prohibited by law. 
  
 Section 4. Liquidation Preference. 
  
 (a) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any payment or
distribution of the assets of the Company (whether capital or surplus) shall be made to or set apart for the holders of Junior Units, as to the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of the
Series A Preferred Units shall be entitled to receive Twenty-Five Dollars ($25.00) per Series A Preferred Unit plus an amount equal to all distributions (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of final distribution
to such holders; but such holders shall not be entitled to any further payment. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets of the Company, or proceeds thereof, distributable among the holders of the Series A
Preferred Units shall be insufficient to pay in full the preferential amount aforesaid and liquidating payments on any other shares of any class or series of Parity Units, as to the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of the Company, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed among the holders of Series A Preferred Units and any such other Parity Units ratably in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such Series A
Preferred Units and any such other Parity Units if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. For the purposes of this Section 4, (i) a consolidation or merger of the Company with one or more corporations, real estate investment trusts or other
entities, (ii) a sale, lease or transfer of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or (iii) a statutory share exchange shall not be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, of the Company.

  
 (b) Subject to the rights of the holders of
shares of any series or class or classes of Membership Units ranking on a parity with or prior to the Series A Preferred Units upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, after payment
shall have been made in full to the holders of 

  

 4 

 
the Series A Preferred Units, as provided in this Section 4, any other series or class or classes of Junior Units shall, subject to the respective terms and
provisions (if any) applying thereto, be entitled to receive any and all assets remaining to be paid or distributed, and the holders of the Series A Preferred Units shall not be entitled to share therein. 
  
 (c) In determining whether a distribution (other than upon
voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by distribution, redemption or other acquisition of Membership Units of the Company or otherwise, is permitted under the Delaware law, amounts that would be needed, if the Company were to be dissolved at the
time of distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of Series A Preferred Units shall not be added to the Company’s total liabilities. 
  
 Section 5. Redemption. In connection with the redemption by the Managing Member of any of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock in accordance with the provisions of the Articles Supplementary of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company shall provide cash to the Managing Member for such purpose which shall be equal to the redemption price (as set forth in the
Articles Supplementary of the Series A Preferred Stock), plus all distributions accumulated and unpaid to the Redemption Date (as defined in the Articles Supplementary of the Series A Preferred Stock), and one Series A Preferred Unit shall be
concurrently redeemed with respect to each share of Series A Preferred Stock so redeemed by the Managing Member. From and after the applicable Redemption Date (as defined in the Articles Supplementary of the Series A Preferred Stock), the Series A
Preferred Units so redeemed shall no longer be outstanding and all rights hereunder, to distributions or otherwise, with respect to such Series A Preferred Units shall cease. Any Series A Preferred Units so redeemed may be reissued to the Managing
Member at such time as the Managing Member reissues a corresponding number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock so redeemed or repurchased, in exchange for the contribution by the Managing Member to the Company of the proceeds from such reissuance
of shares of Series A Preferred Stock. 
  
 Section 6.
Ranking. Any class or series of Membership Units of the Corporation shall be deemed to rank: 
  
 (a) prior to the Series A Preferred Units, as to the payment of distributions and as to distribution of assets upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up, if the holders of such class or series shall be entitled to the receipt of distributions or of amounts distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be, in preference or priority to the holders
of Series A Preferred Units; 
  
 (b) on a parity
with the Series A Preferred Units, as to the payment of distributions and as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, whether or not the distribution rates, distribution payment dates or redemption or liquidation prices
per unit thereof be different from those of the Series A Preferred Units, if the holders of such class or series and the Series A Preferred Units shall be entitled to the receipt of distributions and of amounts distributable upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up in proportion to their respective amounts of accrued and unpaid dividends per unit or liquidation preferences, without preference or priority one over the other (“Parity Units”); 
  

 5 

 (c) junior to the Series A Preferred Units, as to the payment of distributions or as to
the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if such class or series shall be Junior Units; and 
  
 (d) junior to the Series A Preferred Units, as to the payment of distributions and as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up, if such class or series shall be Fully Junior Units. 
  
 Section 7. Voting. Except as required by applicable law, the holders of the Series A Preferred Units, in their capacity as such, shall have no voting rights. 
  
 Section 8. Limitation on Ownership. The Series A Preferred Units shall
be owned and held solely by the Managing Member. 
  
 Section 9.
Sinking Fund. The Series A Preferred Units shall not be entitled to the benefits of any retirement or sinking fund. 
  
 Section 10. Conversion. The Series A Preferred Units are not convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Company.

  
 Section 11. Allocations. The Company’s items of
income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated to the holders of the holders of Series A Preferred Units and the other Members for each taxable year (or portion thereof) as provided herein below: 
  
 (a) After giving effect to the special allocations set forth
in Sections 6.2 and 6.3 of the Operating Agreement, Net Income shall be allocated to the Members as follows: 
  
 (i) first, to the holders of Series A Preferred Units and the holders of any Parity Units pro rata in proportion to the aggregate Net
Losses allocated to each such class of holders pursuant to Section 11(b)(ii) for all prior taxable years (and within each such class of Membership Units, pro rata with respect to each Membership Unit of such class), until the aggregate Net Income
allocated to such holders pursuant to this Section 11(a)(i) for the current and all prior taxable years is equal to the aggregate Net Losses allocated to such holders pursuant to Section 11(b)(ii) for all prior taxable years; 
  
 (ii) second, to the holders of Series A Preferred Units and
the holders of any Parity Units pro rata in proportion to the respective amounts of distributions accumulated on the Series A Preferred Units and on such Parity Units up to the last day of the current taxable year (or portion thereof) (and within
each such class of Membership Units, pro rata with respect to each Membership Unit of such class), until the aggregate Net Income allocated to such holders pursuant to this Section 11(a)(ii) for the current and all prior taxable years is equal to
the aggregate amount of distributions accumulated on the Series A Preferred Units and on such Parity Units up to the last day of the current taxable year (or portion thereof); and 
  

 6 

 (iii) third, to the holders of Junior Units in accordance with the rights of each class
of Junior Units. 
  
 (b) After giving effect to
the special allocations set forth in Sections 6.2 and 6.3 of the Operating Agreement, Net Losses shall be allocated to the Members as follows: 
  
 (i) first, to the holders of Junior Units in the reverse order of the priorities of each class of Junior Units; provided that Net Losses
shall not be allocated to such holders to the extent that such allocation would cause any holder of Junior Units to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of such taxable year (or portion thereof) (or increase any existing Adjusted
Capital Account Deficit); and 
  
 (ii) second, to
the holders of Series A Preferred Units and the holders of any Parity Units pro rata in proportion to the number of Membership Units of each such class; provided that Net Losses shall not be allocated to such holders to the extent that such
allocation would cause any holder of Series A Preferred Units or Parity Units to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of such taxable year (or portion thereof) (or increase any existing Adjusted Capital Account Deficit).
