(i) except as permitted by this Agreement, seek its dissolution or winding up;

(j) guarantee, become obligated for, or hold itself out to be responsible for the debt of another Person other than pursuant to any contract entered into by the Company with or for the benefit of any Portfolio Company, Alternative Investment Vehicle or Financing Subsidiary;

(k) fail either to hold itself out to the public as a legal entity separate and distinct from any Related Person or any other Person or to conduct its business solely in its own name in order not (i) to mislead others as to the identity with which such other Person is transacting business, or (ii) to suggest that it is responsible for the debts of any third party (including any of its Related Persons);

(l) fail to maintain adequate capital for the normal obligations reasonably foreseeable in a business of its size and character and in light of its contemplated business operations; provided that in no event shall any Member be required to make a Capital Contribution other than as expressly provided in this Agreement.

(m) except as may be required by the Code and regulations thereunder or other applicable state or local tax law, hold itself out as or be considered as a department or division of any of its Related Persons or permit any of its Related Persons to hold themselves out as or be considered as a department or division of the Company;

2

(s) take any action, or conduct its affairs in a manner, that is likely to result in its separate existence being ignored or in its assets and liabilities being substantively consolidated with any other Person in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceeding.

Failure of the Company to comply with any of the foregoing covenants or any other covenants contained in this Agreement shall not affect the status of the Company as a separate legal entity or the limited liability of a Member.

(d) Section 3.1(d) of the Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the phrase “and for purposes of repayments of debt and expenses incurred under any Subscription Facility prior to such suspension” immediately prior to the period at the end of such Section.

(e) Section 6.1(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following sentence at the end of such Section: “In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, with respect to any Investment sold or contributed by either Member to the Company or any Financing Subsidiary thereof, neither such Member nor any Board Member appointed by such Member shall have any right to veto or otherwise block any decision made by the other Members of the Company or Board Members appointed by other Members of the Company to make a claim against (or to defend a claim by) such Member that sold or contributed such Investment with respect to any covenants, representations or warranties in any written agreement or certificate it has entered into for the benefit of the JV in connection with the sale or contribution of any such Investment.”
