1.9 Title to Company Assets. Title to the Company’s assets, whether real, personal or mixed and whether tangible or intangible, shall be vested in the Company as an entity, and no Member, Committee Member or officer, individually or collectively, shall have any ownership interest in the Company’s assets or any portion thereof by virtue of being a Member, Committee Member or officer.

1.10 Transaction Agreements. By the execution hereof, the Members each hereby acknowledge and agree that the Company intends to enter into the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, and Green Plains Partners, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, and DKL intend to deliver the parent guaranty agreement contemplated therein. In addition, the Members each hereby acknowledge and agree that the Company, DKL and BlendStar (or their respective Affiliates) intend to enter into the other Transaction Agreements, and in connection therewith to amend and restate this Agreement, prior to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, to reflect the matters set forth in the Letter of Intent attached hereto as Schedule A (or such other matters as DKL and BlendStar shall otherwise agree), including the application of specified previously incurred costs and expenses for the benefit of the Company to the Capital Contributions of each Member.

2.1 Management. An operating committee consisting of four designees (the “Committee”) shall be established by the Company for reporting and decision making purposes. Each Member may appoint two designees (each a “Member-Designee” and, collectively, the “Committee Members”). The Company will not have “managers,” as that term is used in the Act, it being understood that the Committee Members do not constitute “managers.” Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Committee shall have full, exclusive and complete authority, power and discretion to manage and control the business, affairs and properties of the Company and all other acts or activities customary or incidental to the management of the Company and the Business. Decisions or actions taken by the Committee in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute decisions or actions by the Company and shall be binding on each Member, the Committee Members, and officers and employees, if any, of the Company. Any Person dealing with the Company, other than a Member or a Member’s Affiliate, may rely on the authority of the Committee or an officer of the Company in taking any action in the name of the Company without inquiry into the provisions of this Agreement or compliance with it, regardless of whether that action actually is taken in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Committee approval shall be required for all matters not (a) expressly delegated to the Operator pursuant to the Operating Services Agreement, or (b) otherwise expressly permitted to be undertaken by the Operator pursuant to the Operating Services Agreement. All actions of a Member with respect to the Committee shall be taken through those persons it designates to act on its behalf as a Member-Designee. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or unless the Committee has authorized such Committee Member to take such action, no Committee Member in its capacity as such, shall have authority to bind the Company, or shall otherwise take any actions by or on behalf of the Company, such powers being reserved to the Committee Members acting through the action of the Committee in the manner authorized in this Agreement.

2.2 Actions by Committee; Total Votes. Any decision of the Committee other than those set forth in Section 2.4 or as otherwise specifically set forth herein, shall require the approval of, and only of, Member-Designees representing a majority of the Total Votes. For purposes of determining whether a voting threshold has been satisfied, the aggregate vote of Member-Designees designated by a particular Member shall be equal to fifty percent (50%); provided, however, that (a) if at any time the Percentage Interest of any Member is less than or equal to twenty five percent (25%), the votes of all Member-Designees shall be determined as follows: the aggregate vote of the Member-Designees designated by a particular Member shall be equal to (i) the Percentage Interest (at the time of such vote) of the Member who appointed such Member-Designees, times (ii) 100; and (b) in any case, such aggregate vote shall be allocated evenly among the Member-Designees designated by a Member and, if at any time there shall only be one Member-Designee of a particular Member, all of such aggregate vote of such Member shall be allocated to such Member-Designee for so long as such Member-Designee is the only designee of such Member. The sum of the votes of the Member-Designees entitled to vote at any time shall be the “Total Votes” at such time. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of determining the Total Votes with respect to any matter, each Member-Designee shall be entitled to vote on such matter, regardless of whether such Member-Designee attends or participates in the meeting or other action at which such vote is held, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.4 with respect to any particular Specified Voting Item. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any action or event relating to the Business conducted at a Committee meeting shall only be deemed approved if such action or event receives the required Committee approval at a meeting at which a quorum is present.

The rights granted pursuant to this Article 4 shall be deemed contract rights, and no amendment, modification or repeal of this Article 4 shall have the effect of limiting or denying any such rights with respect to actions taken or Proceedings arising prior to any such amendment, modification or repeal. IT IS ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVIDED IN THIS ARTICLE 4 COULD INVOLVE INDEMNIFICATION FOR NEGLIGENCE OR UNDER THEORIES OF STRICT LIABILITY.

4.4 Appearance as a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 4, the Company shall pay or reimburse expenses incurred by any Person entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Article 4 in connection with such Person’s appearance as a witness or other participation in a Proceeding at a time when he is not a named defendant or respondent in the Proceeding.

4.5 Non-exclusivity of Rights.

4.8 Scope of Indemnity. For the purposes of this Article 4, references to the “Company” include all constituent entities, whether corporations or otherwise, absorbed in a consolidation or merger as well as the resulting or surviving entity. Thus, any Person entitled to be indemnified or receive advances under this Article 4 shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article 4 with respect to the resulting or surviving entity as he would have if such merger, consolidation, or other reorganization never occurred.

(a) A Member (in its capacity as such) shall have no liability whatsoever for any debt, obligation or liability of the Company, except to the extent such Member specifically agrees in writing to be responsible for such debt, obligation or liability of the Company or to the extent and under circumstances set forth in any non-waivable provision of the Act. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of any Member (in its respective capacity as such) shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) (i) for any debt, contract, liability or other obligations of the Company or (ii) for any claim against the Company based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the Contributed Property, including any alleged non-disclosure or misrepresentations made by any such Persons.

To the fullest extent permitted by Law, none of the Members, Committee Members, Designated Officers, or other officers of the Company shall owe any fiduciary or similar duty or obligation whatsoever to the Company, any Member (other than the Member designating such Member-Designee or Designated Officer) or other holder of Membership Interests or the other Committee Members, except the duty of good faith and fair dealing or as required by any provisions of applicable Law that cannot be waived. Subject to the foregoing, the Company and the Members acknowledge and agree each Member-Designee may decide or determine any matter subject to the Committee’s approval hereunder in the sole and absolute discretion of such Member-Designee, it being the intent of all Members that such Member-Designee have the right to make such decision or determination solely on the basis of the interests of the Member that designated such Member-Designee. The Company and the Members agree that any claims against, actions, rights to sue, other remedies or recourse to or against any Committee Member (except for such claims, actions, rights to sue, remedies or recourse against a Member-Designee that may be initiated or brought solely by the Member that appointed by the Member-Designee) for or in connection with any such decision or determination by such Committee Member, whether arising in common law or equity or created by rule of Law, contract (including this Agreement) or otherwise, are in each case (except as set forth above) expressly released and waived by the Company and each Member, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, as a condition to and as part of the condition for the execution of this Agreement and the undertaking to incur the obligations provided for in this Agreement. To the extent that, at law or in equity, a Member, Committee Member, Designated Officer or other

officer of the Company owes any duties (including fiduciary duties) to the Company, any other Member or other holder of Membership Interests pursuant to applicable Law, such duty is hereby eliminated to the fullest extent permitted pursuant to Section 18-1101(c) of the Act, it being the intent of the Members that to the extent permitted by Law and except to the extent set forth in this Section 4.10 or specified elsewhere in this Agreement, such Member, Committee Member, Designated Officer or other officer shall not owe any duties of any nature whatsoever to the Company, the Members (other than, with respect to the Member-Designees, the Member that appointed such Member-Designee) or other holder of Membership Interests, other than the duty of good faith and fair dealing, and each Member may decide or determine any matter in its sole and absolute discretion taking into account solely its interests and those of its Affiliates (excluding the Company and its Subsidiaries) subject to the duty of good faith and fair dealing. Nothing herein is intended to create a partnership, joint venture, agency or other relationship creating fiduciary or quasi-fiduciary duties or similar duties or obligations, otherwise subject the Members to joint and several liability or vicarious liability or to impose any duty, obligation or liability that would arise therefrom with respect to any or all of the Members or the Company.

4.11 Restrictions on Financings. After the Acquisition Date, the Committee, with a majority of the Total Votes as set provided in Section 2.3, may elect to cause the Company to obtain financing in connection with the Company’s Business by a combination of Capital Contributions and debt financing. The Company will obtain any such debt financing upon commercially reasonable terms acceptable to the Committee and, if applicable, in accordance with the approved Budget and any specific parameters adopted by the Committee. Each Member agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with and assist the Company in its efforts to obtain any debt financing related to the Terminals. The Company may replace any debt financing related to the Terminals with either temporary or permanent credit facilities. The Operator shall be permitted without any further approval of the Committee (but in accordance with the approved Budget or as required to fund expenses to address an emergency in the Operator’s reasonable discretion, with any such emergency authority terminating upon the conclusion of the emergency and any remediation or repairs necessitated thereby) to make drawings under any such debt financing or other financing approved by the Committee as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such debt financing can be recourse or require credit support from a Member without the prior written consent of such Member in its sole and absolute discretion.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company and each of the Members acknowledges and agrees that each of BlendStar, DKL and their respective Affiliates have engaged, prior to the Effective Date, and are expected to engage, on and after the Effective Date, in other transactions with and with respect to, in each case, Persons engaged in businesses that directly or indirectly compete with the Business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as conducted from time to time or as expected to be conducted from time to time. Neither Member shall have any fiduciary duties to the Company or to the other Member, except as described in Section 4.10 above. Except as the Members may otherwise agree in an amendment to this Agreement, the Company and the Members agree that any involvement, engagement or participation each of BlendStar, DKL and their respective Affiliates in any such investments, transactions

and businesses, even if competitive with the Company and its Subsidiaries, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper or to violate any duty express or implied under applicable Law so long as Confidential Information is not used or made available by each of BlendStar, DKL and their respective Affiliates in violation of this Section 4.12 or Section 10.10 in connection with or for use in such investments, transactions or businesses and so long as any matter that requires the approval of the Board pursuant to this Agreement as in effect at the applicable time is submitted to the Board for such approval. The Company and each Member hereby renounce any interest, expectancy, co-participation rights or other rights in or to any business opportunity, transaction or other matter in which BlendStar, DKL or their respective Affiliates participates or seeks to participate (each, a “Business Opportunity”) other than to the extent a Business Opportunity contains Confidential Information. Except as the Members may otherwise agree in an amendment to this Agreement, none of BlendStar, DKL or their respective Affiliates shall have any obligation to communicate or offer any Business Opportunity to the Company, and BlendStar, DKL and their respective Affiliates may pursue for itself or direct, sell, assign or transfer to a Person other than the Company any Business Opportunity.

(b) Each of the Company and the Members hereby agrees that any claims against, actions, rights to sue, other remedies or other recourse to or against BlendStar, DKL or their respective Affiliates for or in connection with any such investment activity, Business Opportunity or other transaction activity or other matters described in Section 4.12(a), whether arising in common law or equity or created by rule of Law, contract or otherwise, are expressly released and waived by the Company and each Member, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by Law.

Approval by the Committee of an additional Capital Contribution shall deem such Capital Contribution a Mandatory Contribution whereby each Member shall, within fifteen (15) days of the Committee’s approval or such other time as the Committee designates, make such contribution pro rata in accordance with such Member’s Percentage Interest (without receiving additional Membership Interests). The terms of the contribution of the Existing DKL Terminals by DKL and the cash Capital Contributions of the Members relating to the AMID Terminal Acquisition shall be agreed upon by the Members in connection with the amendment and restatement of this Agreement as described in Section 1.10.

(d) Withdrawal.

A Member is not required to contribute to or to lend any cash or property to the Company to enable the Company to return any Member’s Capital Contributions.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if any Member breaches its obligation pursuant to this Section 5.1 to make Capital Contributions, including Section 5.1(c), the non-breaching Member may make a loan to the Company with a principal amount equal to the amount of the Capital Contribution that was not made by the breaching Member, which loan shall bear interest at the highest rate of interest allowed by applicable Law. Simultaneously with the making of the loan, the lending Member shall give notice to the breaching Member of the making of the loan. If, after having made such loan:

(A) the breaching Member makes the required Capital Contribution to the Company within 30 days after the above-described loan is made, the Company shall use such proceeds to repay the loan from the non-breaching Member, provided, however, that when making the applicable payment to the Company, the breaching Member shall provide the Company with funds equal to the principal and interest outstanding under such loan and the amount of any interest paid to the Company shall not be considered a Capital Contribution by the breaching Member; or

(B) the breaching Member remains in default of its Capital Contribution obligations 30 days after the above-described loan is made, the non-breaching Member may elect to convert its loan to the Company into a Capital Contribution and the non-breaching Member’s Capital Interest shall be increased by, and the breaching Member’s Capital Interest shall be decreased by, an amount equal to 1.125 times the sum of the principal and interest then outstanding of the loan. If the non-breaching Member makes the conversion election pursuant to this Section 5.1(e)(i)(B), the Company shall amend Exhibit B to this Agreement to reflect the Percentage Interests as revised after such deemed Capital Contribution by the non-breaching Member and shall give prompt notice to the breaching Member with a copy of the revised Exhibit B.

(ii) In the event the breaching Member’s Capital Interest has been diluted to 15% in accordance with this Section 5.1(e), the non-breaching Member may elect to purchase all, and not less than all, of the Membership Interests of the breaching Member at a price equal to the lesser of (x) the price paid by the

breaching Member for its Membership Interests and (y) the fair market value of its Membership Interests. If the non-breaching Member makes said election, the breaching Member shall cease to be a Member with respect to Membership Interests and shall no longer have any rights or privileges of a Member.

5.2 Distributions of Available Cash. After the Acquisition Date, the Members shall cause the Company to distribute to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests with respect to each quarter of the Fiscal Year an amount of cash equal to Available Cash. For the purpose of this Agreement, the term “Available Cash” means any positive amount of cash and cash equivalents held by the Company determined after subtracting the Base Amount from the sum of all cash and cash equivalents of the Company on hand at the end of such quarter, where “Base Amount” means an amount equal to not less than three (3) months’ and not more than six (6) months’ working capital anticipated to be required by the Company, as determined by the Committee.

5.3 Distributions in Kind. If any assets of the Company are distributed to the Members in kind as determined by the Committee, those assets shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of the distribution, as agreed upon by the Members in accordance with Section 2.3(x).

5.5 Audit. Upon notice in writing to the Company and all other Members, each Member shall have the right to audit the Company’s accounts and records relating to the books and records for any Fiscal Year within twelve (12) months following the end of a Fiscal Year. Where more than one (1) Member wishes to conduct such an audit, the requesting Members shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to conduct a joint audit in a manner which will result in minimum inconvenience to the Company. The Company shall bear no portion of such Members’ audit cost incurred under this Section 5.5. The audits shall not be conducted more than once each Fiscal Year per Member without prior approval of the Company.

5.6 Insurance. As soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof and in any event at least [•] days prior to the Acquisition Date, the Company and Operator will obtain and maintain (or cause to be obtained and maintained) insurance in the coverages and amounts set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto (the “Insurance Program”); provided, however, that such Insurance Program may be amended, supplemented or restated from time to time pursuant to a decision of the Committee. To the extent the Operator is a Member, or an Affiliate of a Member, and the Insurance Program includes coverage obtained through such Member’s, or its Affiliates’, corporate-wide program, the other Members (i) acknowledge that the Operator may allocate the premiums other than pro rata in accordance with the Members’ Membership Interests, and (ii) agree to Operator’s allocation in its sole discretion. To the extent (i) such Insurance Program is insufficient to cover any losses relating to the ownership and/or operation of the Terminals or (ii) any losses relating to the ownership and/or operation of the Terminals are incurred prior to the Committee’s approval of the Insurance Program as set forth in the preceding sentence, whether such loss is a property or casualty loss, liability claim or otherwise (collectively, an

“Uninsurable Loss”), such Uninsurable Loss shall be subject to the Capital Contribution provisions of Section 5.1(c). In the event the Company experiences an Uninsurable Loss, or the Company has agreed to provide contractual indemnity coverage in a Transaction Agreement and payment of an indemnity claim by the Company is proper thereunder and the Insurance Program is insufficient to cover such losses, the Members shall indemnify (in accordance with their Percentage Interest) the Company for such Insurable Loss or indemnity claim. Such indemnification obligation (“Insurance Indemnification Obligation”) shall be a Mandatory Contribution.

6.1 Transfers Prohibited. No Member shall Transfer any interest in any Membership Interests except in accordance with applicable securities laws and the provisions of this Article 6; provided, however, that:

(a) any Member may Transfer all of its Membership Interests to any of its Specified Affiliates, if (i) such Specified Affiliate executes and delivers to the Company a counterpart to this Agreement pursuant to which such Specified Affiliate agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) unless such Transferor is liquidated, such Transferor remains fully liable for its obligations under this Agreement, and (iii) such Transferor delivers written notice to the Company describing in reasonable detail the proposed Transfer at least five (5) Business Days prior to such Transfer.

(c) BlendStar may Transfer all of its Membership Interests to any Subsidiary of BlendStar (a “BlendStar Subsidiary”) if (i) the BlendStar Subsidiary executes and delivers to the Company a counterpart to this Agreement pursuant to which it agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, and (ii) such Transferor delivers written notice to the Company describing in reasonable detail the proposed Transfer at least five (5) Business Days prior to such Transfer, and (iii) Green Plains Inc. provides a guaranty of the obligations of the BlendStar Subsidiary in form and substance substantially similar to the Green Plains Guaranty.

Subject to Section 6.8 and the procedures and requirements set forth in this Article 6, if a Member wishes to Transfer its Membership Interests, such Member must Transfer all, and not less than all, of its Membership Interests. Any purported Transfer in breach of the terms of this Agreement shall be null and void ab initio, and the Company shall not recognize the transferee with respect to any such prohibited Transfer as a Member or an assignee of a Member.

6.2 Lock-Up Period. Other than with respect to a Transfer to in accordance with Section 6.1(a), (b) or (c) or in accordance with Section 6.3 as a result of the dissolution or Bankruptcy of a Member, neither Member shall Transfer its Membership Interest prior to the expiration of [•] days from the [Effective Date] (the “Lock-Up Expiration Date”).

(a) If a Member (i) is dissolved and wound up, or (ii) becomes Bankrupt (the “Affected Member”), it shall provide written notice (the “Section 6.3 Notice”) to the other Members (the “Other Members”), or if the Affected Member fails to provide the required notice within five (5) Business Days, the Company shall have the right to provide such notice to the Other Members. The entire Membership Interest owned by the Affected Member shall be deemed to be the subject of a proposed Transfer (subject to the provision of Section 6.9 with respect to the Lien) and, therefore, offered to the Other Members and the Affected Member shall be obligated to sell its Membership Interests in accordance with this Section 6.3.

(b) Right to Purchase. The Other Members shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase all but not less than all of the Membership Interests of the Affected Member (in proportion to the respective number of Membership Interests of all electing Other Members or in such other proportions as such Other Members may agree) for cash at a price equal to Fair Market Value proposed by the Affected Member (and such right shall exist irrespective of any failure of the Affected Member to send the Section 6.3 Notice). If within a period of fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Section 6.3 Notice, (i) any one or more of the Other Member(s) deliver written notice of its acceptance of the terms and conditions without further reservations or conditions, the Affected Member shall sell all, but not less than all, of the Membership Interests to such Other Member(s) (in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests or such other proportions as such Other Member(s) may agree) by the later of (A) the twentieth (20th) Business Day after the receipt of such acceptance or (B) the fifth (5th) Business Day after receipt of all required governmental approvals or (ii) any one or more of the Other Member(s) deliver written notice of its acceptance of the terms and conditions but disagree with the proposed Fair Market Value, the Fair Market Value shall be determined in accordance with Section 6.3(c) and, once determined, the Affected Member shall sell all, but not less than all, of the Membership Interests to such Other Member(s) (in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests or such other proportions as such Other Member(s) may agree) by the later of (A) the twentieth (20th) Business Day after the receipt of such acceptance or (B) the fifth (5th) Business Day after receipt of all required governmental approvals. If none of the Other Member(s) timely accepts such terms and conditions to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Membership Interests, the right to acquire the Membership Interests hereunder as a result of such dissolution or Bankruptcy shall be irrevocably waived.

(c) In the event of a dissolution and winding up or Bankruptcy the Affected Member or its Designee shall include in its notification to the Other Members a statement of the proposed Fair Market Value of the Affected Member’s Membership Interests. In the event the Members (including to the extent applicable any Designee), after engaging in good faith negotiations for ten (10) Business Days, cannot agree on the Fair Market Value of such Membership Interests, the Affected Member and the Other Members shall have ten (10) Business Days to agree on a third party appraiser (the “Appraiser”) who shall make a determination of Fair Market Value. The Appraiser must be a Person qualified by experience, knowledge, education and training to make a fair and informed determination with respect to the matter in dispute, which Person shall not be an Affiliate of any party, nor an employee, director, officer, shareholder, owner, partner, agent or a contractor of any party or of any Affiliate of any party, either presently or at any time during the previous two (2) years.

(d) After the designation of the Appraiser, the Affected Member and the Other Members shall have fifteen (15) days (“Document Submission Period”) to submit true copies of all documents considered relevant together with their respective statements of Fair Market Value. Additionally, the Appraiser may decide to require the submission of additional documents that the Appraiser considers necessary for the Appraiser’s understanding and determination of the Membership Interests’ Fair Market Value. Based on the documents submitted, the Appraiser shall have thirty (30) days from the end of the Document Submission Period (or within any other mutually agreeable period of time) to deliver its written opinion as to Fair Market Value and the decision rendered by the Appraiser shall be final and binding on the Affected Member and the Other Members.

(e) If the Affected Member and the Other Members cannot agree on an Appraiser, then the Affected Member shall select a Person and the Other Members collectively shall select a Person. The two individuals selected shall select a third Person meeting the qualifications to be the Appraiser. If the two individuals selected by the Members cannot agree on a third Person to act as the Appraiser, the Members will refer the issue to the regional office of the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution covering Houston, Texas, which shall select the third Person meeting the qualifications to be the Appraiser.

(f) The fees and costs associated with the Appraiser’s determination of Fair Market Value will be borne one-half by the Affected Member and one-half by the Other Members; provided, however, each party shall bear its own fees and costs of legal representation and document preparation.

(g) Any disputes with respect to the foregoing process shall be resolved pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 10.3.

(a) Any Member who shall Transfer any Membership Interests shall, upon compliance with all provisions of this Article 6, (i) cease to be a Member with respect to such Membership Interests and shall no longer have any rights or privileges of a Member

with respect to such Membership Interests and (ii) except for any Transfer in accordance with Section 6.1(a), (b) or (c), shall then be relieved of all obligations pursuant to this Agreement, other than (i) any liability for any breach of this Agreement with respect to such Membership Interests and (ii) the obligations set forth in Section 10.10 (and such obligations shall expire three (3) years following the date of the applicable Transfer).

(b) Upon compliance with all provisions of this Article 6, a Transferee shall become a Member and assume all obligations of the Transferor pursuant to this Agreement, other than any liability for any breach of this Agreement by the Transferor.

(c) Subject to Section 10.14, in the event any Member Transfers its Membership Interests to any Person who was not previously a Member, all references to the Transferor herein shall be deemed to refer to the Transferee after the consummation of such Transfer.

(d) Upon the Transfer of a Member’s Membership Interests other than in compliance with Article 6, any Member or Affiliate of the Transferring Member then currently serving as Operator under the Operating Services Agreement shall offer to resign from such position subject to the terms of the Operating Services Agreement, and the Non-Transferring Member(s) (or its Affiliate) shall have the right, but not any obligation, to assume the rights as Operator under such agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if any Member breaches its obligation pursuant to Article 6 relating to a proposed or purported Transfer during any period such Member remains in breach of Article 6, (i) all voting rights of the Member-Designees designated by such Member pursuant to this Agreement other than under Section 2.3(f) and (z)-(cc) will be suspended, (ii) all other Transfer rights of such Member pursuant to this Agreement will be suspended and (iii) all of such Member’s rights to receive distributions from the Company will be suspended (and such Member shall not be entitled to any such distributions). For clarification purposes, if any Member breaches its obligation pursuant to Article 6 relating to a proposed or purported Transfer, the Member-Designees appointed by such Member shall have no right to vote other than with respect to those matters set forth pursuant to Section 2.3(f) and (z)-(cc). Unless such Member’s rights to receive distributions are otherwise suspended pursuant to Section 5.1(e), promptly following such Member’s cure of all breaches of Article 6, the Company shall pay to such Member, without interest, all distributions such Member would have otherwise received during the period of suspension pursuant to this Section 6.4(e).

(a) Execution of Counterpart. Each Transferee of Membership Interests shall, as a condition precedent to such Transfer, execute and deliver to the Company a joinder agreement to this Agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Committee pursuant to which such Transferee shall agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement.

(b) Legal Opinion. No Transfer of Membership Interests to a third party may be made unless (i) in the opinion of the Transferring Member’s counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to all of the other Members (unless all such other Members waive their right to receive such opinion) such Transfer would not violate any federal securities Laws applicable to the Company or the interest to be Transferred, or cause the Company to be required to register as an “Investment Company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended and (ii) the Transferring Member provides reasonable assurance that such Transfer would not violate any state or foreign securities Laws applicable to the Company or the interest to be Transferred. Such opinion of counsel shall be delivered in writing to the Company prior to the date of the Transfer.

(c) Legal Fees. Each Transferee shall pay or reimburse the Company for all legal fees and filing costs incurred by the Company in connection with the admission of the Member, unless waived by the Members.

(d) Authority. If the Transferee is not an individual, it shall provide the Company with evidence, satisfactory to counsel for the Company, of its authority to become a Member under the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

6.6 Legend. In the event that certificated Membership Interests are issued, such certificated Membership Interests will bear the following legend:

“THE MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ORIGINALLY ISSUED ON [•], 2018, HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS (“STATE ACTS”) AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR STATE ACTS OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER. THE TRANSFER OF THE MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS SPECIFIED IN A LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT, DATED FEBRUARY [•], 2018, AS AMENDED AND MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME, GOVERNING THE ISSUER (THE “COMPANY”), AND BY AND AMONG CERTAIN INVESTORS (THE “LLC AGREEMENT”). THE MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY ALSO BE SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL TRANSFER AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE LLC AGREEMENT AND/OR A SEPARATE AGREEMENT WITH THE HOLDER OF THE MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS. A COPY OF SUCH CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS SHALL BE FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST AND WITHOUT CHARGE.”

6.7 Transfer Fees and Expenses. Without limiting the obligation of the Transferee under Section 6.5(c), the Transferor and Transferee of any Membership Interests shall be jointly and severally obligated to reimburse the Company for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) of any Transfer or proposed Transfer, whether or not consummated.

6.8 Void Transfers. Any purported Transfer by any Member of any Membership Interests in contravention of this Agreement (including the failure of the Transferee to execute a joinder agreement to this Agreement in the form reasonably acceptable to the Company and each other Member) or which would cause the Company (a) to be treated as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (b) not be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, shall be null and void and of no legal effect, ab initio, and shall not bind or be recognized by the Company or any other party. No such purported Transferee shall have any rights as a Member, including any rights to any profits, losses or distributions of the Company.

6.9 Lien. Any purported Lien by a Member upon a Member’s Membership Interests or any portion thereof, which is placed without the prior approval of all the other Members is expressly prohibited and shall be null and void and of no legal effect, ab initio, provided, however, that the Parties acknowledge and consent to a Lien upon a Member’s Membership Interests or any portion thereof pursuant to a Lien granted to the senior lenders to the Affiliates of either Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a creditor or trustee-in-bankruptcy seeks to commence foreclosure remedies or proceedings upon all or any portion of the Membership Interests of a Member by a legal or equitable proceeding pursuant to a Lien granted in accordance with this Section 6.9, the affected Member shall notify the other Member in writing, or if the affected Member fails to provide the required notice within five (5) Business Days, the Company shall have the right to provide the required notice to the non-affected Member. Such notice shall be deemed a Section 6.3 Notice for purposes of Section 6.3 and the entire Membership Interest owned by the affected Member shall be deemed to be the subject of a proposed Transfer (subject to the Lien), and the Affected Member shall be obligated to sell its Membership Interest in accordance with Section 6.3 and this Section 6.9.

6.10 Overriding Restrictions on Transfer. Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Article 6, and subject to the other restrictions set forth in this Agreement, no Membership Interests shall be Transferred:

(a) other than as set forth in Section 6.1(b) or Section 6.1(c), to a Transferee:

(i) if rated, with a credit rating below “B” on Moody’s or the Standard & Poor’s credit rating scale;

(ii) if unrated, that has net financial assets which are less than the Member proposing the Transfer, after considering the support of any Guaranty offered by the proposed Transferee, or is otherwise judged not reasonably creditworthy by the Committee or

(iii) who is not generally in the business of producing, marketing, selling, storing and transporting fuels or petroleum products;

(b) without (i) an opinion of counsel to the Transferor (which counsel must be reasonably acceptable to each of the non-Transferors), in form and substance satisfactory to the Members (unless waived by each of the non-Transferors) that the Transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the applicable federal securities Laws and (ii) reasonable assurance that such Transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of any state or foreign securities Laws applicable to the such Transfer; and

(c) unless and until the Company receives from the Transferee any information regarding the Transferee and an executed joinder agreement to this Agreement in the form that the Company or any other Member may reasonably require.

6.11 Rights of Transferees. A Transferee shall have no rights under the Act, the Certificate, or this Agreement until the requirements of this Article 6 have been met.

6.12 Distributions and Allocations in Respect to a Transferred Interest. Subject to the option provided in Section 9.6(c), if a Transferred Interest is Transferred in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement during any accounting period, profits, losses, each item thereof and all other items attributable to the Transferred Interest for such period shall be divided and allocated between the Transferor and the Transferee by taking into account their varying interests during the period in accordance with Code Sec. 706(d) and the Regulations issued thereunder, using an interim closing of the books or any other method and conventions permitted by Law and selected by the Members. All distributions on or before the date of such Transfer shall be made to the Transferor, and all distributions thereafter shall be made to the Transferee. None of the Company, the Committee Members or the Operator shall incur any liability for making allocations and distributions in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.12 whether or not the Committee Members, the Operator or the Company have knowledge of any Transfer of ownership of any Membership Interests. In addition, the Company, the Committee Members or the Operator shall be entitled to treat the Transferor as the absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for distributions made in good faith to it, until such time as the Transfer meets all of the requirements of this Agreement.

The Company may merge or consolidate with one or more limited liability companies or other business entities or convert from a limited liability company only upon a vote pursuant to Section 2.3.

8.1 Events Causing Dissolution. Subject to the provisions of any Laws, the Company shall dissolve and its affairs shall be wound up upon the approval of the Committee pursuant to Section 2.3.

(a) Upon dissolution of the Company, the Operator shall promptly wind up the affairs of the Company, liquidate and discharge or provide for all debts and liabilities of the Company and distribute the remaining assets in accordance with the Act and this Agreement. The Operator shall use reasonable efforts to complete the winding up within one (1) year of dissolution; provided, however, that the Company shall either (i) retain cash in an amount agreed by the Members as reasonably necessary to cover the costs and expenses of a future audit and/or litigation regarding tax matters of the Company, including any anticipated costs and expenses required to be paid under Section 9.1(a) by the Company; or (ii) provide for the payment of the costs and expenses referenced in clause (i) in a manner agreed by the Members acting in good faith.

(b) If assets are distributed in kind to the Members after approval thereof by the Committee, all assets shall be valued at their then fair market value as determined by the Committee in accordance with Section 2.3(h), and the Members’ Capital Accounts shall be adjusted accordingly, as provided for in the Sec. 704(b) Regulations. This fair market value shall be used for purposes of determining the amount of any distribution to a Member pursuant to Section 8.5.

8.3 Profits or Losses in Winding Up. The Members shall continue to share profits and losses during the winding up process in the same proportion as before the dissolution. Any gain or loss on the disposition of Company assets in the process of winding up shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.4 and Sections 9.3, 9.4 and 9.5, except as may be otherwise required by the Code or the Regulations.

8.4 Tax Obligations. Before the assets of the Company are distributed pursuant to Section 8.5, the Company shall file Tax Returns and pay tax obligations if and as required by Law.

8.5 Distributions at Liquidation. Subject to the right of the Committee and the Operator to establish cash reserves as may be deemed reasonably necessary for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company, the proceeds of the liquidation and any other funds of the Company shall be distributed as follows:

(a) first, to the payment and discharge of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities to creditors, including the Operator, Members, Committee Members and their Affiliates as provided in Sections 18-804(a)(1) and (2) of the Act; and

(b) second, after the adjustments referred to in Section 8.2, to the Members in an amount equal to the positive Capital Account balance of each Member, determined after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for the Company’s taxable year during which the liquidation occurs, and such amount shall be paid to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2).

8.6 Final Report. Within a reasonable time following the completion of the liquidation and winding up of the Company, the Company shall cause the Committee to produce a statement of the assets and Liabilities of the Company as of the date of complete liquidation and each Member’s portion of payments and distributions pursuant to Section 8.5.

8.7 Rights of Member; Restoration of Capital Account. Each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for all distributions, and no Member shall have recourse (upon dissolution or otherwise) against any other Member; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall alter the obligations that a Member may have to the Company or any other Member under any Transaction Agreement. No Member shall be entitled to receive property other than cash upon dissolution and termination of the Company, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. No Member shall be obligated to restore a negative balance in such Member’s Capital Account.

8.8 Termination. Upon the completion of the liquidation and winding up of the Company and the distribution of all Company assets, the Company shall terminate. The Operator shall have the authority to execute and record a Certificate of Cancellation pursuant to Section 18-203 of the Act as well as any and all other documents required to effect the dissolution and termination of the Company.

8.9 Waiver of Judicial Dissolution. To the fullest extent permitted by Law and notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, each Member and Committee Member hereby waives and renounces any right to seek judicial dissolution, liquidation or termination of the Company under Section 18-802 of the Act or otherwise at law or in equity.

8.10 Deficit Capital Accounts. No Member shall have any obligation to restore any negative balance in its Capital Account upon liquidation of the Company.

(a) Until removed or replaced in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Operating Services Agreement, the Company shall serve as “partnership representative” of the Company within the meaning of Code Section 6223 (as amended by the BBA) (the “Tax Member”); provided, however, that the appointment of the Company as the Tax Member for any prior Fiscal Year for which an IRS Form 1065 has been filed shall not be revoked without the consent of the Company. The Tax Member shall have (i) the power to manage and control, on behalf of the Company, any administrative proceeding at the Company level with the Internal Revenue Service relating to the determination of any item of Company income, gain, loss, deduction or credit for federal income tax purposes, (ii) such other rights and powers provided under the Code and (iii) rights similar to those set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) herein with respect to any state or local tax matter or administrative tax proceeding. Neither the Tax Member nor its directors, officers, stockholders, partners, members and Affiliates (without giving effect to the last two sentences of such definition) shall be liable to the Company or the Members for acts or omissions taken or suffered by it in its capacity as Tax Member in

good faith in the belief that such act or omission is in accordance with the directions of the Committee, and the Tax Member and its officers, directors, stockholders, partners, members, and Affiliates (without giving effect to the last two sentences of such definition) shall be an Indemnitee under Section 4.1; provided that such act or omission is not in willful violation of this Agreement and does not constitute fraud or a willful violation of Law. All expenses incurred by the Tax Member with respect to any tax matter that does or may affect the Company, or any Member by reason thereof, including but not limited to expenses incurred by the Tax Member in connection with Company level administrative or judicial tax proceedings, shall be paid for out of Company’s assets and shall be treated as Company expenses. The provisions of this Section 9.1 shall survive the termination of the Company, this Agreement or the termination of any Member’s Member Interest and shall remain binding on the Members for a period of time necessary to resolve with the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Department of the Treasury and/or any other tax authority any and all matters regarding the United States Federal and state and local income taxation of the Company and the Member’s obligations and duties provided herein.

(b) If the Internal Revenue Service, in connection with an audit governed by the Partnership Tax Audit Rules, proposes an adjustment in the amount of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of the Company, or any Member’s distributive share thereof, and such adjustment results in an “imputed underpayment” as described in Code Section 6225(b) of the Partnership Tax Audit Rules (a “Covered Audit Adjustment”), the Tax Member may in its discretion elect, to the extent that such election is available under the Partnership Tax Audit Rules (taking into account whether the Tax Member has received any needed information on a timely basis from the Members), to apply the alternative method provided by Code Section 6226 of the Partnership Tax Audit Rules (the “Alternative Method”). The Members agree to act in a timely manner to permit an election of the Alternative Method, and each Member agrees to provide any needed information on a timely basis necessary or required or helpful to elect the Alternative Method.

(c) To the extent that the Alternative Method is not elected for a Covered Audit Adjustment, the Tax Member shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make any modifications available under Code Section 6225(c)(3) and (4) of the Partnership Tax Audit Rules to the extent that such modifications are available (taking into account whether the Tax Member has received any needed information on a timely basis from the Members) and would reduce any Partnership Level Taxes (defined below) payable by the Company with respect to the Covered Audit Adjustment. Additionally, to the extent that the Company does not elect the Alternative Method with respect to a Covered Audit Adjustment, if requested by a Member, the Company shall provide to such Member information allowing such Member (or indirect partner as defined under Proposed Regulations Section 301.6241-1(a)(4)(or any successor thereto)) to file an amended U.S. federal income tax return, as described in Code Section 6225(c)(2) of the Partnership Tax Audit Rules, to the extent such amended return and payment of any related taxes, additions to tax, penalties and interest, would reduce the Partnership Level Taxes. In addition to and not in limitation of the forgoing, each Member agrees to timely provide the Tax Member with any information, statements, affidavits or executed Internal

Revenue Service forms reasonably necessary for the Tax Member to elect the Alternative Method, to effect any modification under Code Section 6225(c) of the Partnership Tax Audit Rules, or to allow the Members (or indirect partners as defined above) to file amended returns under Code Section 6225(c)(2) of the Partnership Tax Audit Rules, or to provide evidence of a Member’s (or indirect partner’s as defined above) filing of, and payment of taxes, additions to taxes, penalties and interest attributable to, an amended tax return under Code Section 6225(c)(2) of the Partnership Tax Audit Rules.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any taxes, penalties, additions to taxes, and interest payable under the Partnership Tax Audit Rules by the Company (“Partnership Level Taxes”) shall be treated as attributable to the Members (or former Members, as applicable) of the Company, and the Tax Member shall allocate the burden of any such Partnership Level Taxes to those Members (or former Members, as applicable) to whom such amounts are reasonably attributable (whether as a result of their status, actions, inactions, or otherwise) taking into account the effect of any modifications described in Section 9.1(c) that reduce the amount of Partnership Level Taxes. All Partnership Level Taxes allocated to a Member (or former Member, as applicable), at the option of the Tax Member applied consistently to all Members (or former Members, as applicable), shall (i) be promptly paid to the Company by such Member (or former Member, as applicable) (“Option A”) or (ii) be paid by reducing the amount of the current or next succeeding distribution or distributions which would otherwise have been made to such Member pursuant to Article V or if distributions are not sufficient for that purpose, by reducing the proceeds of liquidation otherwise payable to such Member pursuant to Article VIII (“Option B”). If the Tax Member selects Option A, the Company’s payment of the Partnership Level Taxes allocated to the applicable Member (or former Member, as applicable) shall be treated as a distribution to such Member (or former Member, as applicable) and the payment by such Member (or former Member, as applicable) to the Company shall be treated as a capital contribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes; provided that such payments shall not affect the Capital Accounts of, any other contributions to be made by, or the distributions and allocations to be made to the applicable Members (or former Members, as applicable) under this Agreement. If the Tax Member selects Option B, the applicable Member shall for all purposes of this Agreement be treated as having received a distribution of the amount of its allocable share of the Partnership Level Taxes at the time such Partnership Level Taxes are paid by the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Member (and former Member, as applicable) hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other Members (and former Members, as applicable) from and against any liability for Partnership Level Taxes allocated to such Member (or former Member, as applicable) under this Section 9.1(d). For the avoidance, of doubt, regarding the potential obligation of a former Member under this Section 9.1, each Member agrees that notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if it is no longer a Member it shall nevertheless be obligated for any responsibilities under this Section 9.1 as if it were a Member at the time of the demand hereunder.

(e) No Member shall file a request pursuant to Code Section 6227 for an administrative adjustment of Company items for any taxable year, or a petition under Code Section 6234 with respect to any item involving the Company, without first notifying the other Members.

(f) The Tax Member will keep the Members promptly informed about any communications with the tax authorities in connection with any Company-level audit. The Tax Member will consult in good faith with the Members regarding material matters in connection with any such audit about strategy and use commercially reasonable efforts to give the Members the opportunity to attend any meetings with the tax authorities in such audits (it being understood that the tax authorities are not always amenable to such participation), but will ultimately control the selection of counsel or advisors to assist in the audits and the approach taken with the tax authorities. The Tax Member will provide each Member with notice reasonably in advance of any meetings or conferences with respect to any administrative or judicial proceedings relating to the determination of Company items at the Company level (including any meetings or conferences with counsel or advisors to the Company with respect to such proceedings) and (to the extent permitted by the tax authorities) each Member will have the right to participate, at its sole cost and expense, in any such meetings or conferences. The reference to Members in this paragraph (f) shall include former Members to the extent the Company level audit involves a reviewed year (as that term is defined in Section 6225(d)(1) of the Code (as amended by the BBA)) in which the former Member was a Member.

(g) The Tax Member shall provide any Member, upon written request, access to all accounting and tax information, workpapers and schedules related to the Company within a reasonable time.

(h) No Member shall file a notice of inconsistent treatment under Code Section 6222(c) (as amended by the BBA).

(i) Combined or Consolidated Returns. If either Member is required to include the income, receipts or related items of the Company in a combined or consolidated return filed by such Member (the “Including Member”), the Including Member shall pay the tax due in connection with such combined or consolidated return; and the Company shall promptly pay the Including Member the amount of tax that the Company would have been required to pay if the Company had filed a hypothetical “standalone” return for such period. Tax administration and controversy matters with respect to any such taxes shall be handled by the Tax Member. The Tax Member shall keep the Members reasonably informed of developments, shall promptly deliver copies of any written communications with the tax authorities related to such issue, and shall provide the Members with a reasonable opportunity to comment on any communication to the tax authorities related to such issue, taking into account any reasonable comments of the Members.

(a) Maintenance. A Capital Account shall be established and maintained for each Member. Each Member’s Capital Account (a) shall be increased by (i) the amount of money contributed by that Member to the Company, (ii) the Agreed Value of

Contributed Property contributed by that Member to the Company (net of Liabilities associated with the Contributed Property that the Company is considered to assume or take subject to under the provisions of Code Sec. 752) and (iii) allocations to that Member of Net Profits and other items of income and gain specifically allocated to such Member, and (b) shall be decreased by (i) the amount of money distributed to that Member by the Company, (ii) the fair market value of property distributed to that Member by the Company (net of Liabilities associated with the distributed property that the Member is considered to assume or take subject to under the provisions of Code Sec. 752) and (iii) allocations to that Member of Net Losses and other items of loss and deductions specifically allocated to such Member. For purposes of making the adjustments to the Members’ Capital Accounts as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, a liability of the Company that is assumed by a Member shall be treated as money contributed by such Member to the Company, and a liability of a Member assumed by the Company shall be treated as money distributed to such Member by the Company, subject to the exceptions and other rules set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(c). Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, whenever it is necessary to determine the Capital Account balance of any Member for purposes of this Agreement, the Capital Account of the Member shall be determined after giving effect to (x) all Capital Contributions made to the Company on or after the date of this Agreement, (y) all allocations of income, gain, deduction and loss pursuant to Section 5.4 and this Article 9 for operations and transactions effected on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the date such determination is required to be made under this Agreement and (z) all distributions made on or after the date of this Agreement.

(b) Transfers. Upon the Transfer of a Member’s Membership Interests or part of a Member’s Membership Interests, the Capital Account of the Transferor Member that is attributable to the Transferred Membership Interests shall be carried over to the Transferee with respect to the Transferred Membership Interests.

(c) Book/Tax Disparities. The realization, recognition and classification of any item of income, gain, loss or deduction for Capital Account purposes shall be the same as its realization, recognition and classification for federal income tax purposes; provided, however, that:

(i) Any deductions for depreciation, cost recovery or amortization attributable to Contributed Property shall be determined as if the adjusted tax basis of such property on the date it was acquired by the Company was equal to the Agreed Value of such property. Upon adjustment pursuant to this Section 9.2 of the Carrying Value of the Company Property subject to depreciation, cost recovery or amortization, any further deductions for such depreciation, cost recovery or amortization shall be determined as if the adjusted tax basis of such property were equal to its Carrying Value immediately following such adjustment. Any deductions for depreciation, cost recovery or amortization under this Section 9.2(c)(i) shall be computed in accordance with Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g)(3) of the Regulations.

(ii) Any income, gain or loss attributable to the taxable disposition of any property shall be determined by the Company as if the adjusted tax basis of such property as of such date of disposition were equal in amount to the Carrying Value of such property as of such date.

(iii) All items incurred by the Company that cannot be deducted under Sections 267(a) or 707(b) of the Code shall, for purposes of Capital Accounts, be treated as an item of deduction for purposes of determining Net Profits and Net Losses and shall be allocated among the Members according to Article 5.

(iv) Unless the Members agree otherwise by a unanimous consent of the Percentage Interest of all Membership Interests entitled to vote, upon the contribution to the Company by a new or existing Member of cash or Contributed Property (other than a de minimis contribution), the Capital Accounts of all Members and the Carrying Values of all Company Properties immediately prior to such contribution shall be adjusted (consistent with the provisions hereof and with the Regulations under Code Sec. 704) upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to each Company Property, as if such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss had been recognized upon an actual sale of each such Property immediately prior to such contribution and had been allocated to the Members in accordance with Article 5 and this Article 9.

(v) Immediately before the actual distribution of any Company Property (other than cash or deemed cash) or the distribution of cash or deemed cash in redemption of all or a portion of a Member’s Membership Interests, the Capital Accounts of all Members and the Carrying Value of all Company Property shall be adjusted (consistent with the provisions of this Agreement and Regulations under Code Sec. 704) upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to each item of Company Property, as if such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss had been recognized upon an actual sale of each such item of Company Property immediately prior to such distribution and had been allocated to the Members at such time in accordance with Article 5.

(vi) The computation of all items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall include those items described in Code Sec. 705(a)(1)(B) and Sec. 705(a)(2)(B) Expenditures without regard to the fact that such items are not includable in gross income or are not deductible for federal income tax purposes.

(d) General Requirement. In addition to the adjustments required by the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.2, the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted in accordance with the capital account maintenance rules of Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Regulations. The foregoing provisions of this Section 9.2 are intended to comply with Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Regulations. If the Members unanimously determine that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts are computed in order to comply with such Regulations, the Members may make such modification. No Member shall have any liability to any other Member for any failure to exercise any such discretion to make any modifications permitted under this Section 9.2(d).

(e) Current Capital Accounts. The Capital Account balance of each Member, as of the date of this Agreement, shall be set forth opposite the Member’s name on Exhibit B.

(a) Except as provided in Section 9.3(b) hereof, for income tax purposes, each item of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as its correlative item of book income, gain, loss, deduction or credit is allocated pursuant to Section 5.4.

(b) Code Sec. 704(c) Requirements. In the case of Contributed Property, items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit, as determined for federal income tax purposes, shall be allocated first in a manner consistent with the requirements of Code Sec. 704(c) to take into account the difference between the Agreed Value of such property and its adjusted tax basis at the time of contribution. In the case of Adjusted Property, such items shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the principles of Code Sec. 704(c) to take into account the difference between the Carrying Value of such property and its adjusted tax basis. Any elections or other decisions relating to the allocations shall be made by the Company in any manner permitted by Sec. 1.704-3(b), (c) and (d) of the Regulations. If the item of Adjusted Property was originally Contributed Property, the allocation required by this Section 9.3 also shall take into account the other requirements of this Article 9. All items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit recognized by the Company for federal income tax purposes and allocated to the Members in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be determined with regard to any election under Code Sec. 754 which may be made by the Company and shall be adjusted as necessary or appropriate to take into account those tax basis adjustments permitted by Code Secs. 734 and 743.

(c) Recapture Allocations. Whenever the income, gain and loss of the Company allocable under this Agreement consist of items of different character for tax purposes (e.g., ordinary income, long-term capital gain, interest expense, etc.), the income, gain and loss for tax purposes allocable to each Member shall be deemed to include the Member’s pro rata share of each such item, except as otherwise required by the Code and the Regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company realizes depreciation recapture income pursuant to Code Secs. 1245 or 1250 (or other comparable provision) as the result of the sale or other disposition of any asset, the allocations to each Member hereunder shall be deemed to include the same proportion of such depreciation recapture as the total amount of deductions for tax depreciation of such asset previously allocated to such Member bears to the total amount of deductions for tax depreciation of such asset previously allocated to all Members, as provided in the Regulations. This Section 9.3(c) shall be construed to affect only the character, rather than the amount, of any items of income, gain and loss.

9.4 Special Regulatory Allocations. The following Regulatory Allocations shall be made in the following order:

(a) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain during any tax year of the Company, then, prior to any other allocations provided for in this Agreement, a Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for the year (and, if necessary, for succeeding years) equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Minimum Gain in accordance with Sec. 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations and other applicable Regulations. The items to be allocated shall be determined in accordance with Sec. 1.704-2(f)(6) of the Regulations.

(b) Member Minimum Gain Chargeback. If during a taxable year of the Company there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, any Member with a share of that Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain (determined under Sec. 1.704-2(i)(5) of the Regulations) as of the beginning of the 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 such net decrease in accordance with Sec. 1.704-2(i) of the Regulations and other applicable Regulations.

(c) Qualified Income Offset. If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in subsections (4), (5) or (6) of Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Regulations, then items of income and gain shall be specially allocated to the Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate as quickly as possible, to the extent required by the Regulations, any deficit in a Member’s Capital Account caused by the unexpected adjustment, allocation or distribution, but only to the extent that the Member does not otherwise have an obligation to restore its Capital Account deficit. This Section 9.4(c) is intended to satisfy the “qualified income offset” provisions of Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(d) Allocation of Nonrecourse Deductions. Items of loss, deduction and Code Sec. 705(a)(2)(B) Expenditures attributable under Sec. 1.704-2(c) of the Regulations to increases in the Company’s Minimum Gain shall be allocated, as provided in Sec. 1.704-2(e) of the Regulations, to the Members in accordance with the allocation provisions set forth in Article 5.

(e) Allocation of Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.4, items of loss, deduction and Code Sec. 705(a)(2)(B) Expenditures attributable under Sec. 1.704-2(i) of the Regulations to Member Nonrecourse Debt shall (prior to any allocation pursuant to Section 5.4) be allocated, as provided in Sec. 1.704-2(i) of the Regulations, to the Members in accordance with the ratios in which they bear the economic risk of loss for such debt for purposes of Sec. 1.752-2 of the Regulations.

9.5 Ameliorative Allocations. The allocations in Section 9.4 and this Section 9.5 (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements under Section 704 of the Code and the Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset with other Regulatory Allocations or special allocations of other items of income, gain, loss or deduction of the Company pursuant to this Section 9.5. The Tax Member shall, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable Law, make allocations pursuant to this Section 9.5 to minimize any distortions in the economic arrangement of the Members that might otherwise result from the application of the Regulatory Allocations and, in that regard, shall take into account any future required offsetting allocations.

(a) Tax Returns. The Company shall cause to be prepared and timely filed all necessary federal and state tax returns for the Company, including making the elections described in Section 9.6(b). Upon written request by the Company, each Member shall furnish to the Company all pertinent information in its possession relating to Company operations that is necessary to enable the Company’s tax returns to be prepared and filed.

(b) Tax Elections. The Company shall make the following elections on the appropriate tax returns:

(ii) to use the calendar year as provided for in Section 9.7 as the taxable year;

(iv) to elect to deduct and/or amortize the organizational expenses of the Company as permitted by Section 709(b) of the Code;

(v) to elect to deduct and/or amortize the start-up expenditures of the Company as permitted by Section 195(b) of the Code; and

(vi) any other election that the Committee deems appropriate and in the best interests of the Company or Members, as the case may be.

It is the intention of the Members that the Company be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and neither the Company nor any Member may make any election to the contrary, including an election pursuant to Treasury Regulation section 301.7701-3(c) or any similar provisions of applicable state law, and no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to sanction or approve such an election.

(c) Pro Rata Method. In the event of a Transfer of ownership of all of the Membership Interests of a Member, the Transferor and the Transferee shall have the option to elect the pro rata method of determining items to be included in the taxable income of the respective party pursuant to Regulations Section 1.706-1(c)(2) or any successor provision thereto. Upon presentation by the Transferor and its Transferee to the Tax Member of an agreement duly executed under the applicable regulations, the Company shall use the pro rata method in reporting partnership items to the Transferor Member and its Transferee in connection with the Transferred Interest.

(d) Remedial Method. For purposes of the allocations set forth in Section 9.3(b), the Company hereby elects the remedial method of allocation under Regulations Section 1.704-3(d).

9.7 Fiscal Year. Unless a different tax year is required under the Code and the Regulations, the fiscal year of the Company (the “Fiscal Year”) shall end on December 31 of each calendar year. The Company shall have the same Fiscal Year for United States federal income tax purposes and for accounting purposes.

No notice to or demand on a Member not expressly required under this Agreement shall entitle the Member receiving the notice or demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Member giving the notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without the notice or demand.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS, WAIVES AND RELEASES THE OTHER PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT FROM AND EXCLUDES ANY RECOVERY FOR ITS OWN SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, AND INDIRECT DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF, DAMAGE TO OR DELAY IN PROFIT, REVENUE OR PRODUCTION) RELATING TO, ASSOCIATED WITH, OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, INCLUDING ANY SUCH DAMAGES RELATING TO, ASSOCIATED WITH OR ARISING OUT OF MATTERS INVOLVING ANY PARTY ACTING IN ITS CAPACITY AS A PARTY HERETO, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT ANY SUCH PARTY SUFFERS SUCH DAMAGES TO A THIRD PARTY, WHICH DAMAGES (INCLUDING COSTS OF DEFENSE AND REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES INCURRED IN CONNECTION WITH DEFENDING AGAINST SUCH DAMAGES) SHALL NOT BE EXCLUDED BY THIS PROVISION AS TO RECOVERY HEREUNDER.
