name”, as the Member may determine.

nature, including, without limitation by specification, the ownership of another business similar
to that operated by the Company. The Company shall not have any right or interest in any
such independent ventures or to the income and profits derived therefrom.
☐ - MULTI-MEMBER: Right of First Refusal
If a Member desires to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or any part of their interest in
the Company, such Member (the “Selling Member”) shall first offer to sell and convey such
interest to the other Members before selling, transferring or otherwise disposing of such
interest to any other person, corporation or other entity. Such offer shall be in writing, shall be
9
given to every other Member, and shall set forth the interest to be sold, the purchase price to
be paid, the date on which the closing is to take place (which date shall be not less than thirty
nor more than sixty days after the delivery of the offer), the location at which the closing is to
take place, and all other material terms and conditions of the sale, transfer or other disposition.
Within fifteen days after the delivery of said offer the other Members shall deliver to the Selling
Member a written notice either accepting or rejecting the offer. Failure to deliver said notice
within said fifteen days conclusively shall be deemed a rejection of the offer. Any or all of the
other Members may elect to accept the offer, and if more than one of the other Members elects
to accept the offer, the interest being sold and the purchase price therefore shall be allocated
among the Members so accepting the offer in proportion to their Members’ Percentage
Interests, unless they otherwise agree in writing.
If any or all of the other Members elect to accept the offer, then the closing of title shall be held
in accordance with the offer and the Selling Member shall deliver to the other Members who
have accepted the offer an assignment of the interest being sold by the Selling Member, and
said other Members shall pay the purchase price prescribed in the offer.
If no other Member accepts the offer, or if the Members who have accepted such offer default
in their obligations to purchase the interest, then the Selling Member within 120 days after the
delivery of the offer may sell such interest to any other person or entity at a purchase price
which is not less than the purchase price prescribed in the offer and upon the terms and
conditions which are substantially the same as the terms and conditions set forth in the offer,
provided all other applicable requirements of this Agreement are complied with. An
assignment of such interest to a person or entity who is not a Member of the Company shall
only entitle such person or entity to the allocations and distributions to which the assigned
interest is entitled, unless such person or entity applies for admission to the Company and is
admitted to the Company as a Member in accordance with this Agreement.
If the Selling Member does not sell such interest within said 120 days, then the Selling Member
may not thereafter sell such interest without again offering such interest to the other Members
in accordance with this Agreement.

into the Company by the unanimous vote or consent of the Members.
As a condition to the admission of a new Member, such Member shall execute and
acknowledge such instruments, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, as the
Company may deem necessary or desirable to effectuate such admission and to confirm the
agreement of such Member to be bound by all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this
Agreement, as the same may have been amended. Such new Member shall pay all
reasonable expenses in connection with such admission, including without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and the cost of the preparation, filing or publication of any
amendment to this Agreement or the Articles of Organization, which the Company may deem
necessary or desirable in connection with such admission.
10

deductions of the Company. The Company may make pro rata allocations of income, losses
or expense deductions to a new Member for that portion of the tax year in which the Member
was admitted in accordance with Section 706(d) of the Internal Revenue Code and regulations
thereunder.
In no event shall a new Member be admitted to the Company if such admission would be in
violation of applicable Federal or State securities laws or would adversely affect the treatment
of the Company as a partnership for income tax purposes.

event of bankruptcy or insolvency, as hereinafter defined, with respect to a Member, or the
occurrence of any other event which terminates the continued membership of a Member in the
Company pursuant to the Statutes (each of the foregoing being hereinafter referred to as a

14. Arbitration
(Check if Applicable)
☐ - MULTI-MEMBER: Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or in connection with

business of the Company is then located, pursuant to the commercial arbitration rules then in

transferee of the Member) shall not be liable, responsible or accountable, in
14
damages or otherwise, to the Company or any other person for: (i) any act
performed, or the omission to perform any act, within the scope of the power and
authority conferred on the Member by this agreement and/or by the Statutes except
by reason of acts or omissions found by a court of competent jurisdiction upon entry
of a final judgment rendered and un-appealable or not timely appealed (“Judicially
Determined”) to constitute fraud, gross negligence, recklessness or intentional
misconduct; (ii) the termination of the Company and this Agreement pursuant to the
terms hereof; (iii) the performance by the Member of, or the omission by the Member
to perform, any act which the Member reasonably believed to be consistent with the
advice of attorneys, accountants or other professional advisers to the Company with
respect to matters relating to the Company, including actions or omissions
determined to constitute violations of law but which were not undertaken in bad faith;
or (iv) the conduct of any person selected or engaged by the Member.
The Company, its receivers, trustees, successors, assignees and/or transferees
shall indemnify, defend and hold the Member harmless from and against any and all
liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses of any nature whatsoever, known or
unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, that are incurred by the Member (including
amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in settlement of any action, suit, demand,
investigation, claim or proceeding (“Claim”), as fines or penalties) and from and
against all legal or other such costs as well as the expenses of investigating or
defending against any Claim or threatened or anticipated Claim arising out of,
connected with or relating to this Agreement, the Company or its business affairs in
any way; provided, that the conduct of the Member which gave rise to the action
against the Member is indemnifiable under the standards set forth herein.
Upon application, the Member shall be entitled to receive advances to cover the
costs of defending or settling any Claim or any threatened or anticipated Claim
against the Member that may be subject to indemnification hereunder upon receipt
by the Company of any undertaking by or on behalf of the Member to repay such
advances to the Company, without interest, if the Member is Judicially Determined
not to be entitled to indemnification as set forth herein.
All rights of the Member to indemnification under this Agreement shall (i) be
cumulative of, and in addition to, any right to which the Member may be entitled to
by contract or as a matter of law or equity, and (ii) survive the dissolution, liquidation
or termination of the Company as well as the death, removal, incompetency or
insolvency of the Member.
The termination of any Claim or threatened Claim against the Member by judgment,
order, settlement or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of
itself, cause the Member not to be entitled to indemnification as provided herein
unless and until Judicially Determined to not be so entitled.
