The Series Manager may, from time to time appoint officers of the Series (the “Officers”) and assign in writing titles (including, without limitation, President, Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary) to any such person. Unless the Series Manager decides otherwise, if the title is one commonly used for officers of a business corporation formed under the Act, the assignment of such title constitutes the delegation to such person of the authorities and duties that are normally associated with that office, including, without limitation, the execution of documents, instruments and agreements in the name of and on behalf of the Series. Any delegation pursuant to this Section 3.e. may be revoked at any time by the Series Manager in writing.

g.             Removal. The Series Manager may be removed as provided in the Company Agreement.

 

4. Members.

 

a.              Capital Contributions. The Members shall make the initial capital contribution to the Series as set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Schedule of Members”). The Members are not required to make any additional capital contributions to the Company, but may make additional capital contributions to the Company as provided in the Company Agreement.

 

b.             Units. Each Member’s interest in the Series is represented by units (“Units”) of membership interest (“Membership Interest”) each having identical rights and privileges, except as otherwise provided in this Series Agreement. An unlimited number of Units is hereby authorized. Outstanding Units shall be shown on the Schedule of Members kept with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar, StartEngine Secure LLC.

 

c.              Distributions.

 

i.              Distributions. The Members may receive “Distributable Cash” from the Series. “Distributable Cash” shall mean net proceeds after the Management Fee, payment of certain liabilities or contractual obligations and sufficient working capital and related reserves. The Series Manager intends to operate the Separate Assets of the Series in such a manner as to generate Distributable Cash for distribution to the Members. The Series Manager shall evaluate Distributable Cash quarterly or at more frequent intervals, in the Series Manager’s sole discretion. Distributable Cash shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Series Manager. Distributions of Distributable Cash to Members, when made, will be allocated among them in proportion to their Membership Interests in the Series. Distributable Cash, if any, will be distributed in the order described in (a) and (b) below, depending on the phase of operation of the Series. The Series Manager anticipates that Distributions of Distributable Cash will not be made for at least the first twelve (12) months following the acquisition of the Asset and will be evaluated quarterly thereafter. The Series Manager will attempt to manage the Series so as to issue dividend payments, to the extent of available cash flow, as follows:

 

(a)            First, 10% of gross proceeds before deductions for expenses, liabilities, contractual obligations, withholdings or reserves (“Gross Proceeds”) to the Series Manager for payment of the Management Fee; and

 

(b)           Second Distributable Cash to the Members, other than the Series Manager, pro rata. This shall be calculated as the dividends available multiplied by a fraction with the fraction being the number of Membership Interests held by the Member as the numerator and the total number of outstanding Membership Interests as the denominator.

ii.             Working Capital Reserves. The Series Manager shall determine the cash available for dividends after retention of reasonable working capital reserves. Working capital reserves may include pre-paid insurance and administrative expenses for an Asset for up to three (3) years. Working capital expenses may be as much as the cost of the interest in the Asset.

 

d.              Withdrawal or Reduction of Members’ Contributions to Capital. Except as otherwise provided herein, a Member may not receive out of the Series’ property a return of any part of such Member’s capital contributions until all other liabilities of the Company have been paid or there remains property of the Company sufficient to pay such other liabilities. A Member shall not be entitled to demand or receive from the Series the liquidation of such Member’s Membership Interest in the Series until the Series is dissolved in accordance with the provisions hereof or other applicable provisions of the Act.

 

e.              Restrictions on Transferability. Restrictions on Transferability shall be governed by the provisions set forth in the Company Agreement.

 

5. Dissolution.

 

a.             Authority to Dissolve Series. The Series Manager may dissolve the Series at any time once the Separate Assets have been sold. The dissolution may only be ordered by the Series Manager or the Company, not by an owner of Series Membership Interests or by any Member of the Series.

 

b.             Distribution upon Dissolution. Upon dissolution of the Company, the Separate Assets of the Series will be distributed as follows:

 

i.              First, to pay the creditors of the Series, including the Series Manager, any Member or third party who loaned or advanced money to the Series or has deferred any reimbursements or fees;

 

ii.             Second, to establish Reserves against anticipated or unanticipated Series liabilities; and

 

iii.            Third, any remaining Distributable Cash will be distributed as described in Section 4.c.i. above (10% to the Series Manager and the remaining Distributable Cash to the Members, pro rata).

 

6. Miscellaneous Provisions.

 

a.             Agreement to be Bound. Each of the undersigned Parties agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Series Agreement.

 

b.             Headings. The headings in this Series Agreement are included for convenience and identification only and are in no way intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent, or intent of this Series Agreement or any provision hereof.

 

c.             Severability. Each provision of this Series Agreement is severable, and if for any reason any provision or provisions herein are determined to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal under any existing or future law, such invalidity, unenforceability or illegality does not impair the operation of or affect those portions of this Series Agreement which are valid, enforceable and legal.
