conveyed in a permitted Transfer during any year, allocations of Profits and Losses and items
of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such Membership Interest shall be
allocated between the transferor and the transferee by taking into account their varying
interests in such Membership Interest during the year as though the Company’s books were
closed on the date of the permitted Transfer.
○ Tax Allocations. In accordance with Code § 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder, income,
gain, loss and deduction with respect to the initial Capital Contributions of the Members
shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among Members so as to take account of any
variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax
purposes using any method selected by Majority Consent of the votes of the Managers.

ARTICLE IX: DISTRIBUTIONS TO MEMBERS

○ Distribution of Net Cash Flow. Subject to ​Sections 9.2​ and ​9.3​, the Net Cash Flow shall be

Members shall be treated as amounts paid or distributed to the Members pursuant to this
ARTICLE 9​ for all purposes under this Agreement.
○ Limitation upon Distributions. Notwithstanding ​Sections 9.1 ​and ​9.2​, no distribution shall be
declared and paid if, after giving effect to the distribution, all liabilities of the Company
(other than liabilities to a Member on account of such Member’s Membership Interest and
liabilities for which the recourse of creditors is limited to specified property of the Company)
exceed the fair value of the assets of the Company (except that the fair value of property that
is subject to a liability for which the recourse of creditors is limited shall be included in the

6
assets of the Company only to the extent that the fair value of that property exceeds that
liability).

distributions in the event of dissolution and termination of the Company shall be made in
accordance with ​Section 17.4​.
○ No Third-Party Beneficiaries. The foregoing priorities of application of Net Cash Flow are
for the benefit of the Members only and not for the benefit of any third party or creditor of
the Company or of the Members, and neither the Company nor the Members shall be liable

deviation from such priorities so long as such person’s actions did not involve bad faith,
willful misconduct or recklessness.

ARTICLE X: MANAGEMENT OF THE COMPANY

○ Management of Company Affairs. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this


Agreement, the management of the Company shall be vested in the Managers. Subject to the
foregoing, each Manager has full, exclusive and complete discretion in the management and
control of the business and affairs of the Company and may make all decisions affecting the
Company’s business and affairs, and, except as otherwise provided herein, any action taken
by any Manager (in their capacity as such) shall constitute the act of, and serve to bind, the
Company. The Managers may designate one or more agents or Affiliates to carry out their
duties and responsibilities to the Company and may evidence such designation by filing a
statement of authority under Section 302 of the Act or by any other means permitted under
the Act. Persons dealing with the Company shall be entitled to rely conclusively on the
power and authority of a Manager or such agents or Affiliates as set forth in this Agreement.
○ Majority Consent of the Managers; Deadlock of Managers. In the event that there is more
than one Manager, except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement that a single
Manager may take independent action or make an independent determination or decision
(e.g., “any Manager may…”), any action to be taken or determination or decision to be made
by the Managers shall be subject to Majority Consent of the votes of the Managers. If
Managers are deadlocked as to any action to be taken or determination or decision to be
made by the Managers, then such action, determination or decision shall be resolved by

legal existence, die or be adjudicated insane or incompetent, then such Manager shall
immediately thereupon cease to be a Manager of the Company. In addition, the Members by
an 85% supermajority vote may at any time remove a Manager from the office of Manager.
If at any time a Manager is removed as Manager or ceases to be a Manager of the Company
for any reason, the Members by 85% supermajority vote shall appoint a new Manager.
○ Authorized Officers. The Managers may vote to elect officers of the Company with such
titles as they deem appropriate and may delegate authority to such officers to manage the
day-to-day operations of the Company. Such officers shall hold office until their successors
are elected and qualified or such officer is removed or resigns from such position. Each
person listed on ​Schedule 10.4(a)​ shall hold the office listed opposite such person’s name
until such person’s resignation or removal or the election by the Managers and qualification
of such person’s successor. Any and all officers are subject to removal, with or without
cause, upon written notice by the Managers. In the absence of a specific delegation of
authority to any individual appointed by the Managers to an office, the individual appointed
to such office shall have the authority and responsibility exercised by an officer holding the
same office of a Utah corporation. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, a
person holding a specific office shall at least have the rights, duties and responsibilities
designated to such office on ​Schedule 10.4(b)​. The officers shall be entitled to reasonable
compensation for services rendered to, or on behalf of, the Company, as reasonably
determined by the Managers. Additionally, the Company shall reimburse any officer for any
payments made by such officer in connection with performance of the duties of such officer.
○ Engagements by the Company. If approved by 80% of the Membership interest, a Manager
may engage, on behalf and at the expense of the Company, such persons, firms or
corporations as such Manager in its reasonable judgment shall deem advisable for the
conduct and operation of the business of the Company, including managers, leasing, rental
and sales agents and brokers, mortgage bankers, lawyers, accountants, architects, engineers,
consultants, contractors, subcontractors and purveyors of other services or materials for the
Company on such terms and for such compensation or costs as such Manager, in its
reasonable judgment, shall determine.

8
○ Employment of Affiliates. The Managers may, on behalf and at the expense of the
Company, engage any Member or an Affiliate of any Member or Manager to render services
or provide goods to the Company.
○ Fiduciary Duties.
Duty of Loyalty​. A Manager shall owe a fiduciary duty of loyalty to the Company; provided that
such duty of loyalty shall not include the aspects of the duty of loyalty set forth in Sections
409(2) and (9) of the Act. The Members may authorize or ratify, after full disclosure of all
material facts, a specific act or transaction that otherwise would violate the duty of loyalty.
Duty of Care​. A Manager shall owe a fiduciary duty of care to the Company, which duty of care
is limited to the requirement that such Manager refrain from engaging in intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law.
Duty of Good Faith and Fair Dealing​. A Manager shall also discharge the duties and obligations
under the Act or under this Agreement and exercise any rights consistently with the contractual
obligation of good faith and fair dealing.
● Notwithstanding the above, a Manger does not violate a duty or obligation under the Act or
under this Agreement solely because such Manager’s conduct furthers such Manager’s own
interest.
○ Limited Liability. The debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising
in contract, tort, or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the
Company and a Manager shall not be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation
or liability of the Company solely by reason of being a Manager of the Company.
○ Devotion of Time by Manager. The Company is not the principal business of the
Members, and the Members agree and acknowledge that they shall not be required to
devote full time to Company business, but shall devote sufficient time to assure
appropriate management and conduct of Company business.
○ Other Business of Manager. A Manager and its agents, Affiliates, employees or any of
their respective representatives of agents may engage or possess any interests in other
business ventures whether or not directly competing with the Company, or to exploit
business opportunities whether or not arising from the conduct of Company business of
any kind, independently or with others. Neither the Company or any Manager nor the
holder of any interest in the Company shall have any right by virtue of this Agreement or
the relationship created hereby in, or to, such ventures or activities or to the income or
profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of such ventures, even if competitive with the
business of the Company, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper.
○ Company Indemnification of Manager. The Company shall indemnify, defend, and hold
a Manager and its Affiliates, shareholders, directors, members, managers, employees,
agents and the officers of the Company, or any of their respective successors, executors,
administrators or personal representatives (each, a “​Manager Indemnitee Party​”)
harmless from and against any claim or demand against any Manager Indemnitee Party

9
and any loss, liability, damage, cost, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees)
sustained or incurred as a result of any act or omission concerning the business or
activities of the Company or due to such Manager Indemnitee Party’s former or present
capacity as a Manger of the Company or other Manager Indemnitee Party (each, a
“​Claim​”); provided that such Claim does not arise from a Manager Indemnitee Party’s
breach of Sections 405, 407 or 409 of the Act. The Company may advance reasonable
expenses incurred by a Manager Indemnitee Party in connection with a Claim against
such Manager Indemnitee Party so long as such Manager Indemnitee Party promises to
repay the Company if such Manager Indemnitee Party is determined to not be entitled to
indemnification under this ​Section 10.11​.
○ Exculpation of Managers. Any act or the failure to do any act by a Manager or, if such
Manager is not an individual, any stockholder, officer, manager, member, director or
employee of such Manager, the effect of which results in loss or damage to the Company,
shall not give rise to any liability to such Manager so long as such Manager’s conduct did
not involve bad faith, willful misconduct or recklessness.
○ Insurance. At the sole discretion of the Managers, the Company may purchase and
maintain insurance on behalf of a Manager against any liability asserted against or
incurred by such Manager in any such capacity or arising out of his, her or its status as a
Manager, whether or not the Company would have the power to eliminate or limit such
Manager’s liability to the Company for the conduct giving rise to the liability under
Section 10.12​ or Section 112(3)(g) of the Act.
○ Salary and Expenses. The Members may, in their sole discretion, elect to compensate a
Manager for services rendered to, or on behalf of, the Company. The Company shall
reimburse a Manager for any payments made by such Manager, its Affiliates, employees
or agents on behalf of the Company or otherwise in connection with performance of the
duties of such Manager so long as such Manager complies with Sections 407 and 409 of
the Act in making such payment.

meeting is called. Any meeting of the Members may be convened using electronic means of
communication so long as all Members participating in such meeting are able to
communicate one with another. A quorum of Members must be present for any business to

Sections 405, 407 or 409 of the Act. The Company may advance reasonable expenses
incurred by a Member Indemnitee Party in connection with a Claim against such Member
Indemnitee Party so long as such Member Indemnitee Party promises to repay the Company
if such Member Indemnitee Party is determined to not be entitled to indemnification under

hereof, no person shall be admitted to the Company after the date of organization of the
Company as a result of a Transfer of Membership Interest from a Member or Members to
such person. A newly admitted Member shall execute and deliver all documents necessary to
reflect such Member’s admission to the Company and such Member’s agreement to be bound

other successor if applicable) shall cease to have any rights of a Member except only the
right to receive distributions occurring at the times and equal in amounts to those
distributions the withdrawn Member would otherwise have received if a Withdrawal Event
had not occurred; provided, however, that such Membership Interest is subject to ​Section
15.1​ hereof.

ARTICLE XIV: RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY

○ Restrictions Upon Transfer by Member. A Member may not sell, exchange, assign or
otherwise transfer, mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber all or any part of such Member’s
Membership Interest in the Company, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, whether by
operation of law, order of any court, contract, gift, will, intestacy, financial insolvency,

12
division of property in the context of a divorce or separation proceeding, or otherwise
(“​Transfer​”), without the unanimous consent of the Members, absent which consent any
such Transfer or attempted Transfer shall be void and of no effect. In addition to obtaining
such required consent of the other Members, any lifetime disposition of a Membership
Interest is also subject to the Company’s right of first refusal set forth in ​Section 14.2​ hereof.
○ Right of First Refusal.
■ Notice of Offer. If a Member proposes to sell or otherwise dispose of such Member’s
Membership Interest (or any portion thereof) to any unrelated entity or person, such
Member will obtain a bona fide, executed written offer (the “​Offer​”) for the proposed
sale or other disposition and will, within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the Offer, submit
to the Company and the other Members a true and complete copy of such Offer. The
Offer shall specify the nature of the transfer, the consideration to be received therefor
(which shall be expressed in dollars), the identity of the proposed purchaser (and the
individuals ultimately owning or controlling the purchaser, directly or indirectly), and all
of the terms upon which such Member intends to undertake such sale or other
disposition. The Company and such other Members shall have the first right to purchase
such Membership Interest as set forth in this ​Section 14.2​.
■ Option to Company. The Managers by Majority Consent of the votes shall have thirty
(30) days from receipt of the Offer (the “​Company Option Period​”) to accept or reject
the Offer in full on behalf of the Company on the terms and conditions set forth in the
Offer. The Company may elect the payment terms as set forth in the Offer or those
payment terms set forth in ​Section 15.3 ​hereof.
■ Option to other Members. If the Managers decline to accept said offer on behalf of the
Company, the other Members (other than the transferring Member) may assign the Offer
to those Members who desire to accept it, pro rata in proportion to such Members’
Membership Interests or as such Members may otherwise agree among themselves.
Such other interested Members must accept the Offer in writing within thirty (30) days
after expiration of the Company Option Period (the “​Member Option Period​”). Such
other interested Members may elect the payment terms as set forth in the Offer or those
payment terms set forth in ​Section 15.3 ​hereof.
■ Transfer to Third Party. If the other Members decline to accept the Offer or otherwise
waive their rights hereunder, and the other Members have consented to the Transfer
pursuant to ​Section 14.1 ​above, the transferring Member shall be free to accept the Offer
from said third party, provided he or she does so within thirty (30) days after the earlier
of the end of the Member Option Period or receipt of the other Members’ waiver and
provided he or she consummates the sale of his or her Membership Interest, or portion
thereof, without any material variation in the terms and conditions stated in said offer. If
the thirty (30) day period for acceptance expires or if such Member desires to materially

13
vary any of the terms and conditions of the offer, he or she must follow the procedure set
forth above as if he or she were receiving a new offer of purchase.
○ Transferring Member’s Capital Account Balance. That portion of the Capital Account
balance of a Member who transfers all or any portion of his or her Membership Interest in the
Company, as permitted hereunder, which is attributable to such transferred interest, shall
carry over to the transferee as set forth in Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(l) of the Regulations;
provided, however, if such portion is a negative amount, it shall constitute a liability of the
transferring Member to the Company and shall be paid in full within ninety (90) days after
such sale or other transfer, unless the other Members consent to the assumption of such
liability by the transferee.
○ Internal Revenue Service Reporting Requirements. In the event of a sale or exchange of an
interest in the Company, the Members shall comply with the reporting requirements of Code
§ 6050K.

ARTICLE XV: BUY-OUT OF MEMBER’S INTEREST

○ Optional Buy-Out Upon Certain Events. Upon receiving notice of the occurrence of an
Optional Buy-Out Event (defined below), the Company shall have sixty (60) days in which it
may (but is not obligated to) exercise an option to purchase the entire interest in the
Company of the Member to whom or by whom an Optional Buy-Out Event has occurred (the
“​Liquidating Member​”). An 80% Majority Consent of the votes of the Managers shall be
required to exercise such option.
■ Optional Buy-Out Event Defined. An “​Optional Buy-Out Event​” shall consist of any of
the following events or circumstances:
■ a Withdrawal Event described in ​Section 1.1(n)​ hereof;
■ a Transfer or attempted Transfer by a Member of all or any portion of his or her
Membership Interest in the Company except as permitted in ​Section 14.1​ hereof; or
■ the breach by a Member of any material term or provision of this Agreement, which
breach remains uncured after reasonable notice and opportunity to cure.
■ Exercise. Exercise of said option by the Company shall be made by giving written notice
thereof to the Liquidating Member or the personal representative, trustee or other
successor-in-interest of the Liquidating Member, effective as of the date of notice of such
election. Valuation of the Membership Interest in the Company of the Liquidating
Member shall be pursuant to ​Section 15.2​, below, and payment for such interest shall be
pursuant to ​Section 15.3 ​below.
○ Purchase Price for Liquidating Member’s Membership Interest. The purchase price for a
Liquidating Member’s Membership Interest shall be determined by Majority Consent of the
votes of the Managers. If the Managers cannot agree upon a purchase price for such
Liquidating Membership Interest or if the Liquidating Member objects to the purchase price

14
determined by the Managers, the purchase price shall be made by and independent qualified
appraiser mutually agreeable to, and selected by, the Managers. The Liquidating Member
shall pay all costs associated with the determination of the redemption price.
○ Payment Schedule. Unless otherwise agreed upon by the Company and the Liquidating
Member, the Company will have the right to pay the purchase price for the Liquidating
Member’s Membership Interest by providing an unsecured promissory note for the amount of
the purchase price with (a) a term of up to seven (7) years, (b) a per annum interest rate equal
to 6% and (c) that is payable in equal monthly, quarterly or annual installments (as elected by
the Company in its sole discretion) of principal and accrued interest. The Company shall
have the right to prepay all or any portion of such obligation at any time without notice or
penalty. In the event the Company terminates under ​ARTICLE 17 ​below, prior to the
payment in full of the foregoing obligation, the entire remaining balance of principal and
accrued interest shall be immediately due and payable by the Company, as set forth in
Section 17.3​ below.
○ Insurance.
■ Life. To insure the availability of cash for the payment of the purchase price for the
Membership Interest of a deceased Member, the Company or the other Members may
purchase a policy or policies of life insurance on any Member’s life to effectuate their
respective obligations under this Agreement.
■ Disability. To insure the availability of cash for the payment of the purchase price for the
Membership Interest of a disabled Member, the Members may purchase a policy or
policies of disability insurance on the Members to effectuate their respective obligations
under this Agreement.
■ Purchase of Policies by Insured. The insured under any life or disability policy described
in this ​Section 15.4​, shall have the right to purchase any or all of such policies from the
owner thereof within ninety (90) days after any of the following:
■ the dissolution of the Company; or
■ a permitted lifetime Transfer of all of such Member’s Membership Interest.
The foregoing right of purchase shall be exercised as to each policy by written notice delivered
to the owners thereof within the time specified. Within ten (10) days after giving such notice,
the insured shall pay to the policy owners an amount equal to the cash surrender value as defined
in the policy, adjusted to the date of transfer of ownership of the policy to the purchaser. The
parties agree to execute such releases and assignments as may be reasonably necessary to any
such policy transfer.

ARTICLE XVI: DISPUTE RESOLUTION

15
Any and all controversies, disputes or claims arising out of, under or relating to this Agreement
or any Schedule attached hereto (collectively, the “​Transaction Documents​”) or the Company
(“​Disputes​”), including any Deadlock, shall be determined as follows:
● Blackjack. According to the Rules of Blackjack as set forth by Bicycle​®​ Cards(“​the
Rules of the Game​”), a round of Blackjack, will be played between one Member from
each of the parties in Dispute. The game will be dealt by an unaffiliated 3rd party,
agreeable to each of the parties in Dispute. The hand must be won, according to the Rules
of the Game, by said Member to end the Deadlock. All Members recognize that the result
of such a game represents a binding decision by the Company in favor of the winning
member.
● Obligations. Each party to a Dispute is required to continue to perform its obligations
under this Agreement pending final resolution of any Dispute, unless to do so would be
impossible or impracticable under the circumstances.

ARTICLE XVII: DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION

○ Dissolution Events. The Company shall be dissolved upon the occurrence of any of the
following: (a) the unanimous consent of the Members or Managers; (b) the passage of ninety
(90) consecutive days during which the Company has no Member unless (i) consent to admit
at least one specified person as a Member of the Company is given by the transferee holding
the Membership Interest at the time the consent is to be effective and (ii) at least one (1)
person becomes a Member of the Company in accordance with such consent; and (c) any
other reason set forth in Section 701 of the Act.
○ Articles of Dissolution. Upon completion of the liquidation of the Company and the
distribution of all Company property, the Company shall terminate and the Managers shall
cause to be executed and filed with the division a statement of dissolution to evidence the
dissolution and termination of the Company. The legal existence of the Company shall
terminate on the effective date of the statement of dissolution with the Division.
○ Winding Up the Company. In the event of the dissolution and liquidation of the Company
for any reason, the Managers shall commence to wind up the affairs of the Company and (a)
convert all of the Company’s assets to cash or cash equivalents within such reasonable period
of time as may be required to receive fair value therefor, (b) discharge the Company’s debts,
obligations and other liabilities as set forth herein, (c) settle and close the Company’s
activities and affairs and (d) marshal and distribute the assets of the Company as set forth
herein. All items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit during the period of liquidation
shall be allocated to the Members in the same manner as before the dissolution.
○ Liquidation. Upon the termination of the Company, the Managers (or a liquidating trustee or
agent appointed by the Managers) shall apply and distribute the remaining property of the
Company, together with the proceeds of any sales of same, as follows:

16
● first, all Company debts and liabilities shall be paid and discharged to creditors in priority
required by applicable law (which may include debts for loans made by the Members);
● second, to a reserve which the Managers may deem reasonably necessary for any contingent
or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company. Such funds may be placed in escrow
by the Managers for the purposes of disbursing such funds in payment of any of the
contingencies, liabilities or obligations, and, at the expiration of such period as the Managers
shall deem advisable, the balance then remaining shall be distributed pursuant to ​Section
17.4(c)​; and
● third, any balance thereof to the Members in the amount of the final balances in their
respective Capital Accounts (after the allocation of all Profits and Losses).
● Each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for the return of such Member’s
investment in the Company, and if such assets or the proceeds from the liquidation of such
assets are insufficient to return said investment, such Member shall have no recourse against
any other Member. Liquidating distributions to Members shall be made by the later of (x)
the end of the Company taxable year in which liquidation occurs, or (y) ninety (90) days after
liquidation.
○ Return of Capital Contributions. No Member shall be entitled to the return of specific
property contributed to the Company or to any payments in liquidation of such Member’s
interest in the Company other than in cash.
○ Negative Capital Account Balance. Notwithstanding the last paragraph of ​Section 17.4​, a
debit (negative) balance in any Member’s Capital Account which, but for this provision,
would exist upon termination of the Company (after the allocation of all Company Profits or
Losses) shall constitute a liability of such Member to make an additional capital contribution
to the Company equal to such debit balance, which liability shall be paid in full by the later
of (a) the end of the Company taxable year in which liquidation occurs or (b) ninety (90)
days after liquidation.
