Section 2.7           Meetings of Members.

(a)          Annual Meeting. The Company may hold an annual meeting of its Members to elect Managers and transact any other business within its powers at such time and place as the Board of Managers shall determine. Failure to hold an annual meeting does not invalidate the Company’s existence or affect any otherwise valid limited liability company acts.

(b)          Special Meeting. At any time in the interval between annual meetings, a special meeting of the Members may be called by the President of the Company or by Members entitled to cast at least twenty-four percent (24%) of all the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting. A request for a special meeting shall state the purpose of the meeting and the matters proposed to be acted on at the meeting.

(c)          Time and Place ofMeetings. Meetings of Members shall be held at such time and place, within or without the State of Texas, as shall be stated in the notice of the meeting or in a duly executed waiver of notice thereof.

Not less than fourteen (14) nor more than ninety (90) days before each Members’ meeting, the Secretary shall give written notice of the meeting to each Member entitled to vote at the meeting and each other Member entitled to notice of the meeting. The notice shall state the time and place of the meeting and, if the meeting is a special meeting, the purpose of the meeting. Notice is given to a Member when it is personally delivered to him or her, left at his or her address as it appears on the records of the Company, if delivered by hand or by overnight delivery service, or mailed to him or her at his or her address as it appears on the records of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, each person who is entitled to notice waives notice if he or she before or after the meeting signs a waiver of notice which is filed with the records of Members’ meetings, or is present at the meeting in person or by proxy (unless present solely for the purpose of objecting to the calling or holding of the meeting).

(e)          Quorum; Voting. Unless this Agreement provides that a larger number of votes is required to approve a particular matter (and in such case that larger number or percent shall constitute a quorum), at a meeting of Members the presence in person or by proxy of Members entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting constitutes a quorum, and a majority of all the votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present (or such larger number of votes required in this Agreement) is sufficient to approve any matter which properly comes before the meeting, except that a plurality of all the votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present is sufficient to elect a Manager; provided, however, that so long as any member of the JBGL Member Group is a Member of the Company, the JBGL Member Group must be a part of any quorum.

(f)          General Right to Vote; Proxies. Unless this Agreement provides for a greater or lesser number of votes or limits or denies voting rights, each holder of a Membership Interest shall be entitled to one vote for each percent of Voting Percentage Interest held by such holder (for the avoidance of doubt, this shall mean that there are a total of 100 votes and a Member with a Voting Percentage Interest of 25% would be entitled to 25 votes) on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of Members. Fractional Voting Percentage Interests shall be entitled to the same pro rata fractional vote. In all elections for Managers, each holder may cast votes for as many individuals as there are Managers to be elected and for whose election the holder is entitled to vote upon; provided, however, that no cumulative voting shall be permitted. A Member may vote either in person or by proxy. A Member may sign a writing authorizing another person to act as proxy. Signing may be accomplished by the Member or the Member’s authorized agent signing the writing or causing the Member’s signature to be affixed to the writing by any reasonable means, including facsimile signature and a signature transmitted by email. A Member may authorize another person to act as proxy by transmitting, or authorizing the transmission of, a telegram, cablegram, datagram, or other means of electronic transmission to the person authorized to act as proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization, or other person authorized by the person who will act as proxy to receive the transmission. Unless a proxy provides otherwise, it is not valid more than eleven (11) months after its date. A proxy is revocable by a Member at any time without condition or qualification unless the proxy states that it is irrevocable and is coupled with an interest. A proxy may be made irrevocable for so long as it is coupled with an interest. The interest with which a proxy may be coupled includes an interest in the Membership Interests to be voted under the proxy or another general interest in the Company or its assets or liabilities.

(g)          Action by Written Consent of Members. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of Members may be taken without a meeting if there is filed with the records of Members meetings a written consent which sets forth the action and is signed by the Members entitled to cast at least a majority of the votes, or such larger number of votes required by this Agreement to pass the resolution contained in the consent; provided, however, that so long as any member of the JBGL Member Group is a Member of the Company, the JBGL Member Group must consent in writing to such action.

The Company shall pay JBGL (or one of its Affiliates as designated by JBGL), monthly in arrears, a closing fee (the "Closing Fee") in an amount equal to a reasonable allocation of actual overhead costs incurred or to be incurred by JBGL or its Affiliates, which shall not exceed $2,000.00 for each residential property sold by the Company or any Subsidiary in any calendar month. The Members herein agree that $2,000 shall be the amount of the Closing Fee as of the Effective Date; and that as of the Effective Date such amount reflects a reasonable allocation of overhead costs incurred or to be incurred by JBGL or its Affiliates; provided, however, that such Closing Fee may decrease or increase (but not above $2,000) in the future in the event that such amount no longer represents a reasonable allocation of the actual overhead costs incurred or to be incurred. The Closing Fee shall begin to accrue on the Effective Date and shall cease to accrue upon the date that no member of the JBGL Member Group, holds a Membership Interest. The Closing Fee for each calendar month shall be payable monthly in arrears no later than the tenth (10^th) day of the month immediately following such calendar month, commencing April 10, 2012.

ARTICLE III

ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 3.1           Allocations

(a)          General Allocations of Profits and Losses. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.4 hereof, items of profit, income, gain, loss, deduction and tax credit recognized by the Company in accordance with the method of accounting and the books and records of the Company as in effect from time to time shall be allocated to and among the Members, prior to any distributions of any Operating Profits attributable thereto, in a manner such that the Capital Account of each Member, immediately after making such allocation, is as nearly as possible equal to the excess of (a) the distributions that would be made to such Member if the Company were dissolved, its affairs wound up and its assets sold for cash equal to their Book Value, all Company liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the fair market value of the assets securing such liability), and the net assets of the Company were distributed pursuant to Section 6.2(a) of this Agreement to the Members immediately after making such allocation, over (b) such Member’s share, if any, of items of Company profit, income, gain, loss, deduction and tax credit specially allocated to such Members pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.4 hereof.

(b)          Transfer. All items of profit, income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit allocable to any Membership Interest that may have been transferred shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee based on the portion of the calendar year during which each was recognized as owning that Membership Interest, without regard to the results of Company operations during any particular portion of that calendar year and without regard to whether cash distributions were made to the transferor or the transferee during that calendar year; provided, however, that this allocation must be made in accordance with a method permissible under Section 706 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

Section 3.2           Distributions of Operating Profits

To the extent the Company has available cash (as determined by the Board of Managers), the Company shall distribute Net Operating Profits to the Members at such times, and in such amounts, as may be determined by the Board of Managers; provided, that to the extent the Company has available cash (as determined by the Board of Managers) the Company shall distribute Net Operating Profits in accordance with this Section 3.2 not less frequently than once per year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall maintain and withhold from such distributions of Net Operating Profits a cash reserve in the amount determined by the Board of Managers to be sufficient to meet the working capital requirements of the Company (“Retained Cash”); provided, that the Members agree that a cash reserve equal to thirty percent (30%) of the amount of Net Operating Profits (determined without consideration of such cash reserve) shall be retained unless otherwise approved by the Board of Managers, except that the Retained Cash shall not exceed a total amount of $1,000,000.00 unless unanimously approved by the Board of Managers. Notwithstanding the frequency or amounts of distributions, Net Operating Profits which are distributed to the Members shall be distributed as follows:

(a)          First, to the Members pro rata in accordance with their respective then Undistributed Preferred Return, in such amounts and until such times as each Member’s Undistributed Preferred Return has been reduced to zero (0);

(b)          Next, to the Members pro rata in accordance with the Members’ proportionate Unreturned Capital Contributions in such amounts, and until such time, as each Member’s Unreturned Capital Contributions have been reduced to zero (0); and

(c)          Thereafter, to the Members pro rata in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

As used herein (i) the term “Undistributed Preferred Return” shall mean, as to each Member, the aggregate Preferred Return accrued with respect to such Member’s Unreturned Capital Contributions reduced by the aggregate distributions to such Member from the Company pursuant to Sections 3.2(a) and 6.2(a)(i) hereof; and (ii) the term “Preferred Return” shall mean, with respect to each Member, a cumulative return of thirteen and 85/100 percent (13.85%), compounded annually, on such Member’s Unreturned Capital Contributions outstanding from time to time.

Section 3.3           Withheld Amounts

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article III to the contrary, each Member hereby authorizes the Company to withhold and to pay over, or otherwise pay, any withholding or other taxes payable by the Company with respect to the Member as a result of the Member’s participation in the Company; if and to the extent that the Company shall be required to withhold or pay any such taxes, such Member shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have received a payment from the Company as of the time such withholding or tax is paid, which payment shall be deemed to be a distribution with respect to such Member’s Membership Interest to the extent that the Member (or any successor to such Member’s Membership Interest) is then entitled to receive a distribution. To the extent that the aggregate amount of such payments to a Member for any period exceeds the distributions to which such Member is entitled for such period, the amount of such excess shall be considered a loan from the Company to such Member. Such loan shall bear interest (which interest shall be treated as an item of income to the Company) at the prevailing prime interest rate published from time to time by The Wall Street Journal until discharged by such Member by repayment, which may be made by the Company out of distributions to which such Member would otherwise be subsequently entitled. Any withholdings authorized by this Section 3.3 shall be made at the maximum applicable statutory rate under the applicable tax law unless the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel or other evidence satisfactory to the Board of Managers to the effect that a lower rate is applicable, or that no withholding is applicable.

Section 3.4           Limitations on Allocations

(a)          Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article III, if there is a net decrease in Company minimum gain during any fiscal year or other period, prior to any other allocation pursuant hereto, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount and manner required by Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b)(4)(iv) and Section 1.704-2. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article III, if there is a net decrease in partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain, any Member with a share of that partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain as of the beginning of such year shall be allocated items of income and gain for the year (and, if necessary, for succeeding years) equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in the partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain, as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4).

(b)          Qualified Income Offset. Any Member who unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) that causes or increases a negative balance in its Capital Account beyond the sum of the amount of such Member’s obligation to restore its deficit Capital Account plus its share of minimum gain shall be allocated items of income and gain sufficient to eliminate such increase or negative balance caused thereby, as quickly as possible, to the extent required by such Treasury Regulation.

(c)          Gross Income Allocation. If any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Company fiscal year which is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount such Member is obligated to restore pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and (ii) the amount such Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2, each such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 3.4(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article III have been made as if this Section 3.4(c) were not in this Agreement.

(d)          Section 704(b) Limitation. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no allocation of any item of income or loss shall be made to a Member if such allocation would not have “economic effect” pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii) or otherwise be in accordance with its interest in the Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b)(3) and 1.704-2. To the extent an allocation cannot be made to a Member due to the application of this Section 3.4(d), such allocation shall be made to the other Member(s) entitled or required to receive such allocation hereunder.

(e)          Curative Allocations. Any allocations of items of income, gain, or loss pursuant to Sections 3.4(a)-(d) hereof shall be taken into account in computing subsequent allocations pursuant to this Article III, so that the net amount of any items so allocated and the income, losses and other items allocated to each Member pursuant to this Article III shall, to the extent possible, be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each Member had no allocations ever been made pursuant to Sections 3.4(a)-(d) hereof.

Section 3.5           Return of Distributions in the Event of Certain Operating Losses

Upon the written request of the Board of Managers at any time and from time to time, which request may be made or withheld upon the Board of Manager’s sole discretion, the Company, by written notice (the “Claw Back Notice”) to each of the Member Groups, shall demand that each Member Group pay to the Company, within thirty (30) days after the date of such Claw Back Notice, its Claw Back Amount; provided, however, that the Board of Managers shall not deliver a Claw Back Notice unless the aggregate net Operating Losses (as determined in accordance with Schedule C hereto) at the time of such Claw Back Notice are greater than $250,000 plus the amount of any Retained Cash.

“Claw Back Amount” as to each Member Group shall mean the lesser of (i) an amount equal to such Member Group’s Operating Loss Share, or (ii) sixty-six percent (66%) of the total distributions of Net Operating Profits made to such Member Group during the fifteen (15) month period immediately preceding the date of the Claw Back Notice (the “Claw Back Period”). In the event that a Claw Back Notice is given and the amount of subpart (i) of the immediately preceding sentence exceeds the amount of subpart (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, then the difference between the two amounts shall be carried forward and applied to reduce the next distribution of Net Operating Profits to such Member Group, or any Member thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Member Group be obligated to pay, collectively, aggregate Claw Back Amounts in excess of $750,000.

“Operating Loss Share” as to each Member Group shall mean (i) an amount equal to the Operating Loss multiplied by such Member Group’s Percentage Interest, minus (ii) an amount equal to the Retained Cash multiplied by such Member Group’s Percentage Interest

“Operating Loss” with respect to any period of time, shall mean Operating Losses determined as provided in Schedule C to this Agreement.

Unless otherwise agreed by the Members by unanimous consent, any Member or assignee transferring his Membership Interest, or any portion thereof, shall remain jointly and severally liable along with any transferee of such Membership Interest for payment to the Company of the Claw Back Amount with respect to any Operating Losses incurred by the Company during the time such Person was a Member regardless of whether such party received any distribution of Net Operating Profits.

Section 3.6           Return of Other Distributions.

Unless otherwise required by law which may not be waived or modified pursuant to such law’s terms, it is the intent of the Company and all Members that except as provided in Section 3.5 above, no Member shall be obligated to return any distribution to or for the account of the Company or any creditor of the Company. The payment of any money or distribution of any property to a Member shall be deemed to be a compromise and, except as provided in Section 3.5 above, the Member receiving any such money or property shall not be required to return any such money or property to the Company or any creditor of the Company. However, if any court of competent jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, any Member is obligated to return amounts previously wrongfully distributed to such Member, such obligation shall be the sole responsibility of the Member who received such distributions.

Regardless of any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, including this Section 4.3(a) or Section 4.3(b). the Pasquinelli Member Group shall have no right to remove the Pasquinelli Manager from the Board of Managers of the Company or any Subsidiary without the prior written consent of the JBGL Managers (acting on behalf of the Company as the sole member of the Subsidiary, in the case of a Subsidiary), and any Manager appointed or elected to the Board of Managers of the Company or any Subsidiary by the Pasquinelli Member Group is subject to the approval of the JBGL Managers (acting on behalf of the Company as the sole member of the Subsidiary, in the case of a Subsidiary).

In the event that no time and place are specified by resolution of the Board of Managers or the President (with notice in accordance with Section 4.3(e) hereof), the Board of Managers shall meet immediately following the close of, and at the place of, such Members meeting. Any other regular meeting of the Board of Managers shall be held on such date and at any place as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Managers.

(d)          Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board of Managers may be called at any time by the President or by any Manager. A special meeting of the Board of Managers shall be held on such date and at any place as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Managers. In the absence of a designation, such meeting shall be held at such place as may be designated in the call.

(e)          Notice of Meeting. Except as provided in Section 4.3(c) hereof, the Secretary shall give notice to each Manager of each regular and special meeting of the Board of Managers. The notice shall state the time, place and purpose of the meeting. Notice is given to a Manager when it is delivered personally to him or her, left at his or her residence or usual place of business, or sent by email, telephone (including voicemail), or text message, at least seventy-two (72) hours before the time of the meeting or, in the alternative by mail to his or her address as it shall appear on the records of the Company, at least seventy-two (72) hours before the time of the meeting. Unless a resolution of the Board of Managers provides otherwise, the notice need not state the business to be transacted at or the purposes of any regular meeting of the Board of Managers. No notice of any meeting of the Board of Managers need be given to any Manager who attends, except where a Manager attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened, or to any Manager who, in a writing executed and filed with the records of the meeting either before or after the holding thereof, waives such notice. Any meeting of the Board of Managers, regular or special, may adjourn from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place, and no notice need be given of any such adjourned meeting other than by announcement.

(f)          Action by Managers. Unless this Agreement requires a greater proportion, the action of a majority of the Managers present at a meeting at which a quorum is present is the action of the Board of Managers; provided, however, that so long as Jim Brickman is one of the JBGL Managers, such majority must include Jim Brickman, or any other Manager as may be designated by JBGL. A majority of the entire Board of Managers shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. In the absence of a quorum, the Managers present by majority vote and without notice other than by announcement may adjourn the meeting from time to time until a quorum shall be present. At any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Board of Managers may be taken without a meeting, if a written consent which sets forth the action is signed by at least a majority of the members of the entire Board of Managers; provided, however, that so long as Jim Brickman is one of the JBGL Managers, such majority must include Jim Brickman, or any other Manager as may be designated by JBGL.

(g)          Meeting by Conference Telephone. Members of the Board of Managers may participate in a meeting by means of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment if all persons participating in the meeting can hear and speak to each other. Participation in a meeting by these means constitutes presence in person at a meeting.

Section 4.4           No Participation of Members in Business and Affairs of the Company.

No Member, in his or her capacity as such, shall have any authority or right to act for or bind the Company or to participate in or have any control over Company business, except for (i) such rights to consent to or approve of the actions and decisions of the Board of Managers as are expressly provided for in this Agreement, and any other rights granted to the Members in this Agreement, and (ii) such authority to act for and bind the Company as the Board of Managers may, from time to time and in the exercise of its sole discretion, delegate to such Member in writing.

Section 4.6           Indemnification and Exculpation.

(a)          The Company shall indemnify (i) its Members, Managers and Officers to the fullest extent permitted by law, including, without limitation, the advance of expenses under the procedures and to the fullest extent permitted by law, and (ii) other employees and agents of the Company to such extent as shall be authorized by the Board of Managers and is permitted by law. The foregoing rights of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled. The Board of Managers may take such action as is necessary to carry out these indemnification provisions and is expressly empowered to adopt, approve and amend from time to time such resolutions or contracts implementing such provisions or such further indemnification arrangements as may be permitted by law. No amendment of this Agreement or repeal of any of the provisions thereof shall limit or eliminate the right to indemnification provided hereunder with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to such amendment or repeal. The indemnification shall be payable solely from the assets of the Company and no Member, Manager or Officer shall have any personal liability therefor.

ARTICLE V
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS

Section 5.1           Transfer of Membership Interest.

(a)          Without the prior approval of the Board of Managers by unanimous consent, which consent shall be at the Board of Managers’ sole discretion, no Member shall (i) endorse, sell, give, pledge, encumber, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, voluntarily or involuntarily, or by operation of law (excluding a merger or consolidation), (including any indirect transfer made by BHCP or the Trust) (hereinafter referred to as a “Transfer”) all or any part of such Member’s Membership Interest, or (ii) voluntarily withdraw or retire from the Company as a Member; provided, however, that JBGL shall have the right to Transfer all or any part of its Membership Interest to any other entity which is controlled directly or indirectly by Jim Brickman or Matt Baynham or any entity which is controlled directly or indirectly by Jim Brickman and Matt Baynham, without such consent of the Board of Managers.

(b)          Any attempted Transfer or withdrawal in contravention of this Agreement shall be void ab initio and shall not bind or be recognized by the Company.

(c)          At any time after the occurrence of a Buy-Sell Event throughout the term of this Agreement, unless such shorter period shall be otherwise provided herein, as to any member of either Member Group, the Member Group that did not experience such Buy-Sell Event (the “Offeror Member Group”) may deliver a written offer (the “Buy-Sell Notice”) to the other Member Group which has experienced a Buy-Sell Event (the “Offeree Member Group”), to buy from the Offeree Member Group the entire Membership Interest of each member of the Offeree Member Group. The Buy-Sell Notice shall (i) be in writing and signed by each member of the Offeror Member Group; (ii) specify a cash purchase price (“Overall Purchase Price”) for all of the assets of the Company, as if free and clear of all loans and other financing; and (iii) specify the other major economic terms and conditions upon which the Offeror Member Group would be willing to sell to the Offeree Member Group its entire Membership Interest (and in each case, under the circumstances described below, those same terms and conditions to apply to the sale by the Offeree Member Group to the Offeror Member Group of its Membership Interests). The Offeree Member Group shall have the right, exercisable by delivery of notice in writing to the Offeror Member Group within thirty (30) days from the receipt of the Buy-Sell Notice to elect to either:

(i) Sell to the Offeror Member Group the Offeree Member Group’s entire Membership Interest for a purchase price equal to the amount that the Offeree Member Group would receive if all Company assets were sold for the Overall Purchase Price, all existing loans and other indebtedness of the Company were paid in full, and the remaining proceeds were distributed to the Members and the Company was liquidated, all as provided in Section 6.2 hereof; or

(ii) Purchase the Offeror Member Group’s entire Membership Interest for a purchase price equal to the amount that the Offeror Member Group would receive if all Company assets were sold for the Overall Purchase Price, all existing loans and other indebtedness of the Company were paid in full, and the remaining proceeds were distributed to the Members and the Company was liquidated, all as provided in Section 6.2 hereof.

Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Buy-Sell Notice, the Offeree Member Group will notify the Offeror Member Group of its election either to sell its entire Membership Interest to the Offeror Member Group or to purchase the Offeror Member Group’s entire Membership Interest based upon the Overall Purchase Price and the other terms and conditions set forth in the Buy-Sell Notice (as provided in subpart (i) or (ii), as applicable, of Section 5.1(c) above). If the Offeree Member Group fails to notify the Offeror Member Group of its election within such thirty (30) day period, the Offeree Member Group shall be deemed to have elected to sell its entire Membership Interest upon the terms and conditions of the Buy-Sell Notice. Upon delivery of the notice specifying such election (or a deemed election arising by the failure of the Offeree Member Group to notify the Offeror Member Group of its election within such thirty (30) day period), the Offeror Member Group and the Offeree Member Group will be obligated to consummate the purchase and sale in accordance with such election and the provisions of this Section 5.1(c).

The closing of any purchase and sale of Membership Interests under this Section 5.1(c) will occur on or before the sixtieth (60th) day after the Offeree Member Group has elected to buy or sell (or a deemed election has occurred as hereinabove provided). Such closing shall take place at the Principal Office of the Company or at such other place as the purchasing Member Group and selling Member Group may agree. At such closing, the purchase price shall be payable by the purchasing Member Group to the selling Member Group, by wire transfer or such other means as are acceptable to the selling Member Group, upon the execution, acknowledgement and delivery of all documents, instruments and agreements that the purchasing Member Group and the Board of Managers determines to be necessary or appropriate to evidence and render fully effective the sale, assignment and transfer of the subject Membership Interest by the selling Member Group, and each member thereof, to the purchasing Member Group; provided, however, that such documents shall be reasonably consistent with similar transactions. The purchasing Member Group and selling Member Group will each pay one-half of any transfer taxes, recording fees, legal fees for preparation of agreements and instruments and other fees and expenses (including legal and accounting fees) incurred by the Company in connection with the Transfer of any interest in the Company under this Section 5.1(c). The purchasing Member Group and selling Member Group will each pay their own costs and expenses incurred in connection with any Transfer of any interest in the Company under this Section 5.1(c).

If any Member Group brings suit to enforce its right to purchase an interest in the Company under this Section 5.1(c). the Member Group prevailing in the suit will be entitled to be reimbursed by the Member Group against whom an adverse determination ultimately is made for the costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of attorneys and other professional advisors) incurred in connection with the suit. A Member Group who shall have agreed to purchase the Membership Interest of the other Member Group under this Section 5.1(c) and subsequently fails to purchase that Membership Interest in breach of this Agreement will be subject to suit for damages caused by his breach as well as other available remedies.

Each Member agrees and acknowledges that the purchase price for the Membership Interest to be transferred to be determined in accordance with, and paid pursuant to, the provisions of this Section 5.1(c) is fair as to dates used, notices, terms, price and in all other respects. Each Member waives any right, at law or in equity that he may have to use any other method to determine the purchase price in connection with the application of this Section 5.1(c).

It is expressly agreed that the remedy at law for breach of any of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.1(c) is inadequate in view of (i) the complexities and uncertainties in measuring the actual damages that would be sustained by reason of the failure of a Member to comply fully with each of said obligations, and (ii) the uniqueness of the Company’s business. Accordingly, each of the aforesaid obligations shall be, and is hereby expressly made, enforceable by specific performance.          

The right to purchase or sell provided in this Section 5.1(c) shall be apportioned as between the members of such Member Group pro rata based upon the Percentage Interest of such Member unless otherwise agreed by the members of such Member Group.

“Buy-Sell Event” shall mean, as to each member of a Member Group, the occurrence of any of the following :

(ii) if, within one hundred twenty (120) days after the commencement of any proceeding against any member of such Member Group seeking the reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief pursuant to any statute, law, or regulation, the proceeding shall not have been dismissed, or if within ninety (90) days after the appointment without his consent or acquiescence of a trustee, receiver, or liquidator of such member of a Member Group or of all or any substantial part of his properties, the appointment shall not be vacated or stayed, or within ninety (90) days after the expiration of any stay, the appointment shall not be vacated;

(iii) any member of such Member Group shall encumber or attempt to encumber his Membership Interest or any portion thereof without the prior approval required by Section 5.1;

(iv) Any member of such Member Group, (or in the case of the Pasquinelli Member Group, additionally BP), shall die or there shall be entered an order by a court of competent jurisdiction adjudicating such member of a Member Group (or in the case of the Pasquinelli Member Group, additionally BP) incompetent to manage his person or his property, or such member of a Member Group (or in the case of the Pasquinelli Member Group, additionally BP) having a guardian appointed for his person;

(vi) any member of such Member Group, if an entity, shall dissolve, liquidate, or wind up;

(ix) any such Member Group shall have failed to pay any Claw Back Amount when due;

(x) As to the JBGL Member Group, solely for a period of 6 months following the date on which neither Jim Brickman nor Matt Baynham is acting a Manager of the Company;

(xi) As to the JBGL Member Group, in the event that the Board of Managers determines to dissolve in accordance with Section 6.1(a)(i) without the consent of the Pasquinelli Manager, solely for a period of sixty (60) days following such determination to dissolve.

If a Member transfers all or any part of such Member’s limited liability company interest in the Company in accordance with the requirements of Section 5.1 hereof, the transferee shall be admitted to the Company as a Member of the Company upon its execution of an instrument, as required by the Board of Managers, signifying such transferee’s agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, which instrument may be a counterpart signature page to this Agreement.

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed by the Members, no Member shall be entitled to withdraw capital or to receive distributions of or against capital without the prior written consent of, and upon the terms and conditions agreed upon by, all Members. The Members have (i) no right under the Texas Act, or otherwise, to withdraw or resign and receive the fair value of their Membership Interests, and further hereby waive any dissenters’ rights pursuant to the Texas Act, or otherwise, (ii) no right to demand or receive any distribution from the Company in any form other than cash and in accordance with provisions of this Agreement concerning distributions, and (iii) no right under the Texas Act to become a creditor of the Company with respect to distributions owed them.

Section 5.4          Dissociation of a Member.

(a)          Each of the following events shall be an “Event of Dissociation” (herein so called) with respect to all members of the Pasquinelli Member Group:

(i) Any Buy-Sell Event occurs with respect to any member of the Pasquinelli Member Group, regardless of whether the JBGL Member Group exercises its right to send the Buy-Sell Notice pursuant to Section 5.1(c) hereof or any other rights thereunder, subject of the right of the Pasquinelli Member Group to receive notice of a Default Buy-Sell Event and the opportunity within thirty (30) days of such notice to cure such curable Default Buy-Sell Event;
