This Section 8.4(a)(i) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith;

(ii) Except as otherwise provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt during any Fiscal Year, each Member who has a share of the Member Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Fiscal Years) in an amount equal to the portion of such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4).

Allocations provided for above in this Section 8.4 (“Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to cause allocations of Company items to be respected under Treasury Regulations, but may not be consistent with the manner in which the Members intend to allocate Profit and Loss or make Company distributions. Accordingly, subject to the Regulatory Allocations, the Company is directed to reallocate items of income, gain, deduction, loss or credit among the Members so as to offset and eliminate the effect of the Regulatory Allocations as quickly as possible consistently with Treasury Regulations, and cause the respective Capital Account balances of the Members to be in the amounts (or as close thereto as possible) they would have been if Profit and Loss and items thereof had been allocated without regard to the Regulatory Allocations.

Section 11.3 Reporting Requirements.

The Directors shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the preparation and timely filing of all tax returns required to be filed by the Company pursuant to the Code and all other tax returns deemed necessary and required by each jurisdiction in which the Company does business, provided however that the Directors shall only cause the preparation and filing of tax returns for taxable periods that end after the Closing Date of the Purchase and Contribution Agreement, as defined in such agreement, and provided further that if such tax return is with respect to a Straddle Period, as defined in the Purchase and Contribution Agreement, this Section 11.3 shall be subject to Section 11.01(f)(ii) of the Purchase and Contribution Agreement. No later than ninety (90) days prior to the due date for filing such tax returns, taking into account extensions, the Company shall provide each Member with a proposed federal Form 1065 setting forth such Member’s allocable share of the Company’s income, gain, loss, deductions and credits and other items required to be set forth thereon (the “Proposed 1065”). No later than thirty (30) days following the receipt of the Proposed 1065, the Members shall endeavor to agree on the content of the Proposed 1065. If the Members fail to agree on the content of the Proposed 1065 before the date that is sixty (60) days following the receipt of the Proposed 1065, the content of the Form 1065 shall be determined by a firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing mutually selected by the Members. The Form 1065 as agreed upon by the Members or determined by a firm of accountants under this Section 11.3 (the “Final 1065”) shall be final and binding upon the Members. Each of the Members shall bear all fees and costs incurred by it in connection with the determination of the content of the Form 1065, except that the Members shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of the fees and expenses of such accounting firm. The Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished to each Member (and, otherwise, to each Person to whom it is required to be furnished), by no later than ninety (90) days following the end of each taxable year of the Company, a Schedule K-1 of federal Form 1065 (and any corresponding schedules, documents, forms, etc. required to be furnished to such Member or Person) setting forth such Member’s, or Person’s allocable share of the Company’s income, gain, loss, deductions and credits and other items required to be set forth thereon in respect of such taxable year and conforming with the Final 1065. The Company shall also furnish such other tax-related information to any Member as such Member may reasonably request or require.

Section 11.4 Tax Matters.

(a) The Board shall designate the “Tax Matters Member” within the meaning of Code § 6231(a)(7). The Board shall initially designate Holdings III as the Tax Matters Member, and if Holdings III subsequently ceases to be a Member pursuant to a Transfer of all of its Membership Interests to one or more Permitted Transferees of Holdings III under Section 12.1(b), the Board shall designate the Permitted Transferee (or one of the Permitted Transferees) as the Tax Matters Member. All decisions for the Company relating to tax matters including, without limitation, whether to make any tax elections, the positions to be taken on the Company’s tax returns and the settlement or further contest or litigation of any audit matters raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority, shall be taken by the Tax Matters Member acting with Approval of the Board.

(b) Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law (disregarding for this purpose any requirement that can be avoided through the filing of an election or similar administrative procedure), the Tax Matters Member shall cause the Company to take the position that the Company is a partnership for federal, state and local income tax purposes and shall cause to be filed with the appropriate tax authorities any elections or other documents necessary to give due legal effect to such position.

(c) Neither the Company nor any Member shall file (and each Member hereby represents that it has not filed) any income tax election or other document that is inconsistent with the classification of the Company as a partnership for applicable federal, state and local income tax purposes. Neither the Company nor any Member shall take any action inconsistent with such classification.

(d) No Member shall file a notice with the United States Internal Revenue Service under Code § 6222(b) in connection with such Member’s intention to treat an item on such Member’s Federal income tax return in a manner which is inconsistent with the treatment of such item on the Company’s federal income tax return unless such Member has, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the filing of such notice, provided the Tax Matters Member with a copy of the notice and thereafter in a timely manner provides such other information related thereto as the Tax Matters Member shall reasonably request.

ARTICLE 12

TRANSFER OF MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS

Section 12.1 Transfer of Membership Interests.

(a) Restriction on Transfer. Other than pursuant to Section 12.1(b) or Section 12.1(f), or a Transfer of Membership Interests approved by the Requisite Members, prior to July 1, 2019, no Transfer or offer to Transfer may be made by a Member of all or any part of such Member’s Membership Interests in the Company. Transfer of all of a Member’s Membership Interests shall terminate the Transferor’s status as a Member, and the Members are hereby authorized to continue the business of the Company without dissolution.

(b) Intra-group Transfers. Subject to Section 8.02(l) of the Purchase and Contribution Agreement, each Member shall have, and at all times retain the right to Transfer, all or any portion of such Member’s Membership Interests, and the rights granted under this Agreement relating to such Member, to such Member’s wholly-owning ultimate parent entity or to any direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of such Member’s wholly-owning ultimate parent entity (each, a “Permitted Transferee”); provided, that if any Permitted Transferee ceases to be such a wholly-owned Subsidiary, it shall no longer be a Permitted Transferee hereunder and all of its Membership Interests, if any, shall be deemed to have been Transferred back to such Member for all purposes hereunder.

(c) Effectiveness. A Transfer of Membership Interests in the Company shall be effective only upon satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) The Membership Interests so transferred were acquired by means of a Transfer permitted under this ARTICLE 12; and

(ii) The Transferee furnishes copies of all instruments effecting the Transfer and such other customary certificates, instruments and documents as the Company may reasonably require as necessary and appropriate to memorialize and confirm the Transfer.

(d) Substitute Members. Any Person who is a Transferee of any portion of a Member’s Membership Interests pursuant to this ARTICLE 12 (other than Section 12.1(f) hereof) shall become a substitute Member.

(e) Distribution entitlement. For purposes of receiving distributions, a Transfer of Membership Interests made in accordance with this ARTICLE 12 shall be effective on the first day of the month following the day on which the requirements of this ARTICLE 12 have been satisfied, or at such earlier time as the Board reasonably Determines. Distributions made after the effective date shall be made to the Transferee.

-42-

(f) Pledges of Membership Interests.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, including, without limitation, the other provisions of this ARTICLE 12, a Member shall be entitled to grant a Permitted Lien over its Membership Interests in favor of, any lender or lenders (or agent on behalf of such lender or lenders) pursuant to a bona fide financing transaction.

(ii) No consent of the Company or any Member shall be required under this Agreement to the Transfer to the lienee under a Permitted Lien of a Member’s Membership Interest that is subject to the Permitted Lien upon the exercise of such lienee’s rights under the Permitted Lien. Upon the exercise of such lienee’s foreclosure rights in respect of such Permitted Lien, the lienee shall have the rights, powers and entitlements of an assignee as set out in Section 18-702(b)(1) and (2) of the Act.

(iii) As of the date hereof, Holdings III has pledged its Membership Interests to, and granted a security interest in all of their right, title and interest under this Agreement in favor of, the agent for the lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

(g) Transfers in Violation. No Transfer of Membership Interests, or any part thereof, that is in violation of this ARTICLE 12, shall be valid or effective against, or shall bind, the Company, and neither the Company nor the Members shall recognize the same for the purpose of making allocations, distributions or other payments pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such Membership Interests or part thereof. Neither the Company nor the non-transferring Members shall incur any liability as a result of refusing to make any such distributions to the Transferee of any such invalid Transfer, or any other Person, and no such purported Transferee shall have any right to receive allocations or payments of any Profits or Losses or distributions. In addition, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (i) any Transfer, as a whole or in part, of Membership Interests shall be prohibited if, in the reasonable opinion of the Board such Transfer poses a material risk that the Company would be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Code § 7704 and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder; and (ii) a Member may not Transfer all or any part of such Person’s Membership Interests in the Company if such Transfer would jeopardize the status of the Company as a partnership for federal income tax purposes or would violate any provision of Federal or state securities or blue sky laws or breach the conditions to any exemption from registration of the Membership Interests under any such laws or breach any undertaking or agreement of a Member entered into pursuant to such laws or in connection with obtaining an exemption thereunder.

-43-

Section 12.2 Rights of First Refusal.

(a) Right of First Refusal. In the event that, after July 1, 2019, any Carrier Holder (“Carrier Offeror”) or any Watsco Holder (“Watsco Offeror” and, together with Carrier Offeror, “Offeror”) desires to Transfer any or all of its Membership Interests in a transaction (other than a Transfer permitted by Section 12.1(a)), the Offeror shall deliver to the Company, in any case, and the Watsco Deciding Member, in the case of a Carrier Offeror, or the Company and the Carrier Deciding Member, in the case of a Watsco Offeror (the Watsco Deciding Member or the Carrier Deciding Member, as applicable, together with the Company, the “Offerees”), a written notice of the proposed transaction (hereinafter referred to as a “First Refusal Notice”) to Transfer the Membership Interests which shall set forth the name and address of the proposed purchaser and the material terms and conditions of the proposed transactions, including, without limitation, the purchase price and the number of Membership Interests proposed to be transferred. The First Refusal Notice shall be accompanied by a written offer (hereinafter referred to as the “Offer”), irrevocable for ten (10) Business Days from its receipt by the Offerees to sell to the Offerees all but not less than all of the Membership Interests covered by the First Refusal Notice, for a price determined in accordance with Section 12.2(c), and on the same terms and conditions as are contained in the First Refusal Notice. The Offer shall further state that (i) the Company, subject to Section 6.3, may acquire, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, any of the Membership Interests subject to the Offer for the price and upon the other terms and conditions set forth therein, and (ii) if all such Membership Interests are not purchased by the Company, the other Offeree may purchase all but not less than all of the Membership Interests subject to the Offer not purchased by the Company for the price and upon the other terms and conditions set forth in the Offer. An Offeree may accept the Offer by delivering a written notice (an “Offeree Notice”) to the Offeror and the other Offeree within such ten (10) Business Days. If an Offeree fails to timely deliver an Offeree Notice to the Offeror, it shall be deemed to have waived any right to participate in the Offer. If the Offeree (other than the Company), and/or the Company, as applicable, accepts the Offer, such Offeree, and/or the Company, as applicable, shall purchase and pay for all of such Membership Interests in accordance with the terms of the Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Offer may not be accepted by any of the Offerees unless, following such acceptances, all of the Membership Interests covered by the First Refusal Notice are accepted by the Offerees.

(b) Right of First Refusal Procedure. If the Offer is not accepted by the Offerees, or payment for all of the Membership Interests offered by an Offeror is not made in accordance with Section 12.2(c) and Section 12.2(d), the Offeror may sell the Membership Interests that were the subject of the First Refusal Notice to the third party purchaser on terms and conditions which are no less favorable to the Offeror in the aggregate than the terms and conditions set forth in the First Refusal Notice, during the ninety (90) day period immediately following expiration of the Offer pursuant to a binding agreement entered into during such ninety (90) day period which contains an

-44-

agreement to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If the Membership Interests are not purchased pursuant to an Offer or by the third party purchaser, such Membership Interests may not be sold or otherwise disposed of without again offering them to the Offerees in accordance with this Agreement.

(c) Purchase Price. The purchase price to the Offerees for Membership Interests offered pursuant to an Offer shall be, on a per Membership Interest basis, an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the cash per Membership Interest purchase price and one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of any non-cash per Membership Interest consideration identified in the First Refusal Notice with the fair market value of such non-cash consideration as determined within twenty (20) days after the last date on which the Offer must be accepted by a mutually agreed nationally recognized investment banking firm or other valuation expert. If the Offeror and Offerees are unable to agree upon an investment banking firm or other valuation expert within two (2) days after the last date on which the Offer must be accepted, either the Offeror or the Offerees may request the American Arbitration Association to appoint a nationally recognized investment banking firm or other valuation expert to perform the services required under this Section 12.2(c).

(d) Terms of Payment. Subject to Section 12.2(c), if the Offerees have the right to purchase Membership Interests pursuant to the terms of this Section 12.2, the Offerees will purchase such Membership Interests on the same terms as is specified in the First Refusal Notice.

(e) Closing. The closing of the purchase of Membership Interests subscribed pursuant to this Section 12.2 shall be determined by written notice by the Offerees purchasing Membership Interests to the Offeror, which shall specify a closing date, which date shall not be later than thirty (30) days after the last date on which the Offer must be accepted. At such closing, the Offeror shall deliver documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Offerees, effecting Transfer of such Membership Interests. The Offerees shall deliver at the closing payment of the purchase price determined pursuant to Section 12.2(c).

(f) No Waiver of Subsequent Rights. The exercise or non-exercise of the rights of an Offeree under this Section 12.2 shall not affect its rights under this Section 12.2 with respect to any future Transfers of Membership Interests that meet the conditions specified in this Section 12.2.

Section 12.3 Tag-Along Rights.

Subject to the terms of the other Sections of this ARTICLE 12, including, without limitation, Section 12.2, unless Watsco Holders have, in the aggregate, Transferred (excluding for these purposes Transfers pursuant to Section 12.1(b), but giving effect to proposed Transfers which are the subject of this Section 12.3) Membership Interests representing a Percentage Interest of not more than five percent

-45-

(5%) during the three-year period preceding the applicable date of determination, in the event any Watsco Holder (the “Tag Seller”) proposes to Transfer (any such Transfer, a “Tag Sale”) any Membership Interests held by the Tag Seller to a third party (which, for purposes hereof, shall not include any Permitted Transferee of the Tag Seller) in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions, then the Watsco Deciding Member shall provide written notice to the Carrier Deciding Member (the “Tag Notice”). The Tag Notice shall specify the identity of the prospective purchaser and the terms and conditions of such proposed Transfer, including, without limitation, the number of Membership Interests proposed to be transferred and the amount and type of consideration to be paid in respect thereof. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 12.3, the Carrier Deciding Member shall have the right to participate in such Tag Sale for the same consideration and on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Tag Notice and to Transfer a number of its Membership Interests equal to the number of Membership Interests proposed to be sold by the Tag Seller multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Percentage Interest of the Carrier Holders, in the aggregate, and the denominator of which is the aggregate Percentage Interest of the Carrier Holders and the Watsco Holders, and the number of Membership Interests to be sold by the Tag Seller pursuant to the Tag Sale shall be reduced accordingly. This right of co-sale shall be on the following terms and conditions:

(a) Option to Participate. The Carrier Deciding Member may elect to participate in the contemplated Tag Sale by delivering a written notice (an “Election Notice”) to the Watsco Deciding Member within twenty (20) Business Days after receipt of a Tag Notice relating to such sale and the Carrier Deciding Member may elect to sell in the contemplated Tag Sale up to that number of Membership Interests owned by the Carrier Holders as is set forth in this Section 12.3 above. If the Carrier Deciding Member fails to deliver in a timely manner an Election Notice to the Watsco Deciding Member, it shall be deemed to have waived any right to participate in the Tag Sale. To the extent that the Carrier Deciding Member exercises such right of participation in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, the number of Membership Interests which the Tag Seller may sell shall be correspondingly. Promptly following expiration of the offering period for the Tag Notice, the Watsco Deciding Member will notify the Carrier Deciding Member whether the Membership Interests offered by the Tag Seller in the Tag Notice will be purchased and shall confirm the final terms of the Tag Sale to the third party purchaser.

(b) Transfer Restrictions Binding on Third Party Purchaser. If any Membership Interests are sold pursuant to this Section 12.3 to any third party purchaser who is not a party to this Agreement, such purchaser shall agree to be bound by the terms, conditions and obligations of this Agreement in the same manner as the Transferor of such Membership Interests as a precondition to the purchase of such Membership Interests and such Membership Interests shall continue to be subject to the provisions set forth in this Agreement.

-46-

(c) No Waiver of Subsequent Rights. The exercise or non-exercise of the rights of the Carrier Deciding Member under this Section 12.3 shall not affect its rights to participate in subsequent sales by Watsco Holders that meet the conditions specified in this Section 12.3.

ARTICLE 13

ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL INTERESTS; ADMISSION OF NEW MEMBERS

Section 13.1 Issuance of Additional Membership Interests.

(a) In order to raise additional capital or to acquire assets or for any other Company purposes, subject to Section 3.1, if the Board Determines to raise additional capital, the Board is authorized to cause the Company to issue additional Membership Interests at any time or from time to time to any Person, provided it first obtains the approval of the Requisite Members as provided in Section 6.3(a). Purchasers of Membership Interests directly from the Company shall be admitted to the Company as new Members at such time as all conditions to their admission have been satisfied, as Determined in good faith by the Board.

The Board, and the officers as authorized by the Board, is hereby authorized to do all things it deems to be appropriate or necessary to effectuate issuance of Membership Interests as provided in this Section 13.1, including, without limitation, compliance with the Act and any other statute, rule, regulation or guideline of any federal, state or other governmental agency.

ARTICLE 14

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 14.1 Liability for Certain Acts.

Subject to applicable law, no Members and officers, employees or agents appointed pursuant to this Agreement (each in their capacity as such an “Exculpated Person”) shall be liable, in damages or otherwise, to the Company, the Members or their Affiliates, or any other Exculpated Person for any act or omission performed or omitted by them in good faith (including, without limitation, any act or omission performed or omitted by any of them in reliance upon and in accordance with the opinion or advice of experts, including, without limitation, of legal counsel as to matters of law, of accountants as to matters of accounting, or of investment bankers or appraisers as to matters of valuation).

(a) The Company shall indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law any Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Company), or any appeal thereof by reason of the fact that such Person is or was a Member, Director, an officer, employee or agent of the Board or the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another Person (any such Person in their capacity as such, a “Covered Person”), against any losses or damages, (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and any amount expended in settlement of any claim or loss or damage), actually incurred by such Person in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such action, suit or proceeding except that no Covered Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of such losses and damages incurred by such Covered Person (i) by reason of willful misconduct, fraud or bad faith, (ii) resulting from any breach of this Agreement, or (iii) where, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, such Covered Person had reasonable cause to believe such Person’s conduct was unlawful.

(b) The Company shall indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law any Covered Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such Covered Person is or was a Director, an officer, employee or agent of the Board or the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another Person against any losses or damages, (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and any amount expended in settlement of any claim or loss or damage), actually incurred by such Covered Person in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such action, suit or proceeding except that no Covered Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of such losses and damages incurred if such Covered Person did acted bad faith or fraudulently; provided that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such Covered Person shall have been determined upon final adjudication after all possible appeals have been exhausted to be liable to the Company unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such Covered Person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which a court shall deem proper.

(c) Expenses (including, without limitation attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by any Covered Person in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or

-48-

investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding promptly upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such or officer to repay such amount if it shall be determined upon final adjudication after all possible appeals have been exhausted that such Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company authorized in this Section 14.2. In addition, any expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by any Covered Person in enforcing their right to indemnification pursuant to this Section 14.2 shall be paid or reimbursed by the Company promptly upon receipt by it of an undertaking by such Covered Person to repay such expenses if it shall ultimately be determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to indemnification by the Company.

(d) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Section 14.2 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any law, agreement, or otherwise, both as to action in an official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

(e) The Company may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any Covered Person against any liability asserted against such Covered Person and incurred by such Covered Person in any such capacity, or arising out of such Covered Person’s status as such, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under this Section 14.2.

(g) The termination of any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative 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 Covered Person was not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 14.2.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 14.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or dissolution of the Company.

(i) Nothing in this Section 14.2 is intended to relieve any Member or any other Person from any liability or other obligation of such Person pursuant to the Purchase and Contribution Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, or to in any way impair the enforceability of any provision of such agreements against any party thereto.

-49-

directly to indemnify any Covered Person pursuant to this Section 14.2. None of the provisions of this ARTICLE 14 shall be deemed to create any rights in favor of any person other than Covered Persons and Exculpated Persons.

Any dispute, claim or controversy (a “Dispute”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any such Dispute between the Company, Carrier Holders and Watsco Holders, shall be subject to the following dispute resolution procedure: first, such Dispute shall be addressed to the President of the Company and the President of the Carrier North America operating division (or equivalent level manager) for discussion and attempted resolution; second, if any such Dispute cannot be resolved by such individuals within twenty (20) business days from the date that the Dispute is submitted to such persons, then such Dispute shall be immediately referred to the appropriate, respective senior officer of each Member (provided, however, that in the case of Holdings III, such person shall be a senior officer of Watsco) (or equivalent level person) for discussion and attempted resolution; third, if any such Dispute cannot be resolved by such officers within twenty (20) business days from the date that the Dispute is submitted to such persons, then such Dispute shall be immediately referred to the appropriate, respective Chief Executive Officers of each Member (provided, however, that in the case of Holdings III, such person shall be the Chief Executive Officer of Watsco) (or equivalent level person) for discussion and attempted resolution; and fourth, if any such Dispute cannot be resolved by such Chief Executive Officers within twenty (20) business days from the date that the Dispute is submitted to such persons, then such Dispute shall be immediately referred to non-binding mediation as provided in Section 15.3(b) below.

(b) Mediation. Following the initial dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 15.3(a), the parties agree to submit any Dispute to mediation before a neutral mediator in Wilmington, Delaware who will be requested to conduct informal, nonbinding mediation of the Dispute. Each party will work with the other to select an

-51-

(c) Litigation. In the event of a Mediation Termination, then such Dispute shall be resolved through legal action or proceeding in state or federal courts located in the State of Delaware. Each party hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of Delaware, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and each party hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding must be brought and/or defended in such court; provided, however, that matters which are under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal courts shall be brought in the Federal District Court for the District of Delaware and any court of appeal therefrom; and each party hereby waives any obligation or requirement to post any bond on appeal. Each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 15.2 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party. Service made pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such party personally within the State of Delaware, and each party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent each may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

No delay or omission in the exercise of any power, remedy or right herein provided or otherwise available to a party or the Company shall impair or affect the right of such party or the Company thereafter to exercise the same. Any extension of time or other indulgence granted to a party hereunder shall not otherwise alter or affect any power, remedy or right of any other party or of the Company, or the obligations of the party to whom such extension or indulgence is granted. The single or partial exercise of any power, remedy or right herein provided or otherwise available to a party or the Company shall not preclude any other or further exercise of any power, remedy, or right.

Section 15.7 Severability.

If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 15.8 Assignment.

Neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the express written Consent of all the Members, except as permitted pursuant to ARTICLE 12.

Section 15.11 Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile transmission), and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 15.12 Successors and Assigns.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Members and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 15.13 Advice and Construction.

Each Member has been advised, or has had the opportunity to be advised, by respective counsel as to its respective rights and obligations under this Agreement and clearly understands and agrees with all terms and conditions of this Agreement as set forth herein; and the principle of construction against draftsmen shall have no application in the interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 15.14 Specific Performance.

The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

Section 15.15 General Statutory Override.

To the extent permitted by law, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern over all provisions of the Act which would apply but for (and inconsistently with) the Agreement. For each question (a) with respect to which the Act provides a rule (a “Default Rule”) but permits a limited liability company’s operating agreement to provide a different rule and (b) which is addressed by this Agreement, the Default Rule shall not apply to the Company.
