Section 4.3. Additional Capital

(a) Additional Capital Contributions. To the extent that the Company requires funds in addition to the amounts provided in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 and the Members have determined in accordance with Section 5.3 hereof that additional capital contributions are necessary or desirable, the Manager shall give written notice (the “Cash Call”) to each Member setting forth in reasonable detail (i) the amount and purpose of such required funds, (ii) the date on which the funds are required (the “Additional Capital Contribution Date”) and (iii) the amount to be contributed by each Member, which amount shall be in proportion to each Member’s Interest on the date of the Cash Call. Within twenty (20) calendar days (the “Call Period”) after the date of the Cash Call, each Member shall contribute to the Company as an “Additional Capital Contribution” the funds requested in the Cash Call. Until the Company has received the total amount of the Additional Capital Contribution set forth in the Cash Call, all funds advanced to the Company by a Member in fulfillment of such Member’s Cash Call shall be deposited in a separate escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) in the name of and for the benefit of such Member advancing such funds, and such Escrow Account shall be segregated from the general funds (and not available to satisfy the obligations) of the Company. Any Escrow Account established pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be established using the employer identification number of the Member in whose benefit such Escrow Account is being established and shall be treated as owned by such Member for all purposes, including U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any interest accrued in any Escrow Account for the benefit of a Member shall be (i) paid to that Member upon either the release of the Additional Capital Contributions to the Company or the return of the entire Escrow Account to the Non-Defaulting Member or Members as provided in Section 4.3(b), and (ii) reported by such Member on its U.S. federal income tax return and not on the U.S. income tax return of the Company. The exclusive remedies for a Member’s failure to make an Additional Capital Contribution to capital in accordance with a Cash Call shall be those set forth in this Section 4.3, and no Member shall have any personal or recourse liability for the failure to satisfy a Cash Call.

(b) Consequences of Failure to Provide Additional Capital Contributions. In the event that Additional Capital Contributions are required to be made and on or prior to the Additional Capital Contribution Date one or more Members has made its share of the Additional Capital Contribution (each a “Non-Defaulting Member”) and one or more Members has failed to make its share of the Additional Capital Contribution (each a “Defaulting Member”), the Manager shall determine and give written notice to each Non-Defaulting Member of the amount of Additional Capital Contributions remaining to be made (the “Deficit Contribution Amount”),

 

16


whereupon any Non-Defaulting Member shall have the option during the following five (5) day period (the “Deficit Option Period”) to (i) request and receive from the Escrow Account an immediate return of the funds advanced as its Additional Capital Contribution (whereupon, for purposes of the remainder of this Section 4.3, the Member making such request shall become a Defaulting Member and the Deficit Contribution Amount shall be increased by the amount returned to such Defaulting Member) or (ii) elect to advance to the Company as a loan its pro rata share of the Deficit Contribution Amount and treat such Non-Defaulting Member’s share of the Additional Capital Contribution as a loan to the Company and not an Additional Capital Contribution (the “Optional Deficit Loan”). If there is more than one Non-Defaulting Member who elects to make an Optional Deficit Loan such Non-Defaulting Members shall make the Optional Deficit Loans pro rata in proportion to their respective Interests. In the event a Non-Defaulting Member makes an Optional Deficit Loan, (i) the principal balance of each Optional Deficit Loan shall be equal to the sum of the amount paid by the Non-Defaulting Member to the Company on behalf of the Defaulting Member and such Non-Defaulting Member’s share of the Additional Capital Contribution, (ii) each such loan shall bear interest at the rate of 14% plus the rate publicly announced by the Bank of America as its “Prime Rate” or “Reference Rate” or any other similar successor rate or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is less and (iii) the interest and principal on each Optional Deficit Loan shall be payable before any distributions are paid pursuant to Section 4.6, with payments to the Non-Defaulting Member first being applied to reduce accrued interest on the Optional Deficit Loan and then to reduce the principal balance of the Optional Deficit Loan.

(c) No Third Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to benefit the Members and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall not be construed as conferring any benefit upon any creditor of the Company (and no such creditor of the Company shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement) and the Members shall not have any duty or obligation to any creditor of the Company to make any contribution to the Company or to issue any call for capital pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 4.4. Capital Accounts.

(a) A separate book capital account (a “Capital Account”) shall be established and maintained for each Member by the Manager. The Capital Account of each Member shall be: (a) credited with (i) the amount of cash and the agreed-upon Fair Market Value of any property contributed by such Member to the Company (net of liabilities secured by such contributed property that the Company is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the Code), including cash contributed by a Member as such Member’s Initial Capital Contribution, (ii) such Member’s share of any Profits or other items in the nature of income or gain allocated to it under this Agreement, and (iii) such Member’s share of other items required to be credited thereto under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv); and (b) shall be debited with (i) the amount of cash and the Fair Market Value of any property distributed to such Member (net of liabilities secured by such distributed property that such Member is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the Code), (ii) such Member’s share of any Losses or other items in the nature of expenses or losses allocated to it under this Agreement, and (iii) such Member’s share of other items required to be debited thereto under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704- 1(b)(2)(iv).

(ii) Profits shall next be allocated among the Members in proportion to their respective Interests until each Member’s Capital Account balance is increased to a level at which an immediate distribution of such Capital Account balance to each Member would cause each Member to receive an Internal Rate of Return of eleven percent (11%);

(iii) Profits shall next be allocated (A) eighty-nine percent (89%) among the Members in proportion to their respective Interests and (B) eleven percent (11%) to Managing Member until each Member’s Capital Account balance is increased to a level at which an immediate distribution of such Capital Account balance to each Member would cause each Member to receive an Internal Rate of Return of twenty-five percent (25%);

18


such Capital Account balance to each Member would cause each Member to receive a final Internal Rate of Return of at least eleven percent (11%) but not more than twenty percent (20%), then $250,000 of the Profits allocated to the Non-Managing Members shall be reallocated, in accordance with the Non-Managing Members’ respective Interests, to the Manager and the Members’ Capital Accounts will be adjusted accordingly.

(viii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.5(a), if, upon the sale or the Assets or liquidation of the Company, each Member’s Capital Account balance is increased to a level at which an immediate distribution of such Capital Account balance to each Member would cause each Member to receive a final Internal Rate of Return of more than forty percent (40%), then $125,000 of the Profits allocated to the Manager shall be reallocated to the Non-Managing Members in accordance with their respective Interests, and the Members’ Capital Accounts will be adjusted accordingly.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.5:

(i) If during any Fiscal Year there is a net decrease in Company minimum gain (as such term is defined by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(d) with respect to partnership minimum gain), then each Member shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent Fiscal Years) in the manner provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f). This Section 4.5(b)(i) is intended to comply with the partnership minimum gain chargeback requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2.

(ii) If during any Fiscal Year there is a net decrease in Member nonrecourse debt minimum gain (as such term is defined by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i) with respect to partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain) then each Member with a share of such Member nonrecourse debt minimum gain shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, for subsequent Fiscal Years) in the manner provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i).

(c) Taxable income, gain, loss or deduction of the Company (as well as any credits and the basis of property to which such credits apply) as determined for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated in the same manner as the corresponding income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated for purposes of adjusting Capital Accounts hereunder.

 

19


(d) Subject to Section 706 of the Code and to any applicable Treasury Regulations, Profits, Losses and items of income, gain, loss deduction or credit for federal income tax purposes for a Fiscal Year that are attributable to any Interest in the Company that is transferred or assigned during such Fiscal Year shall be allocated between the portion of the Fiscal Year during which such Interest was held by the transferor and the portion of the Fiscal Year during which such Interest was held by the transferee on the basis of the number of days of the year such Interest was held by each, assuming that the effective date of each transfer shall be deemed to have occurred on the first day of the month in which it becomes final.

(e) (i) Any Losses otherwise allocable to a Member with, or which would produce, a deficit in such Member’s Adjusted Capital Account Balance shall be allocated to the extent of the aggregate of and in proportion to the positive Adjusted Capital Account Balances of other Members. If any Member receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) that create or increase a deficit balance in their Adjusted Capital Account Balances, then the next allocation of items of Company income and gain that would otherwise have been allocated to the other Members shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and a manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balance in such Adjusted Capital Account Balance created by such adjustments, allocations, or distributions as quickly as possible. The preceding sentence is intended to comply with the qualified income offset provision in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).

(ii) The allocation provisions contained in this Agreement are intended to comply with Section 514(c)(9)(e) of the Code and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iii) Subject to compliance with Section 514(c)(9)(E) of the Code, any special allocations pursuant to this Section 4.5(e) or Section 4.5(b) shall be taken into account in computing subsequent allocations pursuant to this Section 4.5, so that the allocations of items of Company income and gain allocated to each Member pursuant to this Section 4.5 shall be equal to the allocations of items of Company income and gain that would have been allocated to each Member pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.5 if the adjustments, allocations, or distributions and the resulting special allocations pursuant to this Section 4.5(e) or Section 4.5(b) had not occurred.

(0 In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for income tax purposes, be allocated among the Members to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its Fair Market Value at the time of contribution. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Manager, subject to the approval rights under Section 5.3, in a manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 4.5(f) are solely for purposes of federal, state, and local income tax purposes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses or distributions.

 

20


(g) The Members intend that the allocation provisions of Section 4.5 shall produce final Capital Account balances of the Members that will permit liquidating distributions that are made in accordance with final Capital Account balances under Section 10.2(c) to be made (after unpaid loans and interest thereon, including, without limitation, those owed to Members, have been paid) in a manner identical to the order of priorities set forth in Section 4.6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, to the extent permitted under Section 514(c)(9)(E) of the Code and to the extent that the allocation provisions would fail to produce such final Capital Account balances, (x) Profits and Losses of the Company for the current taxable year and future taxable years (or items of gross income and deduction of the Company for such years) may be reallocated by the Manager among the Members as necessary to produce such result (or, to the extent it is not possible to achieve such result with allocations of items of income (including, without limitation, gross income) and deduction for the current year and future years, for prior open taxable years) as reasonably determined by the Manager, subject to the approval rights under Section 5.3, and (y) such provisions shall be amended by the Manager, subject to the approval rights under Section 5.3, if and to the extent necessary to produce such result without the consent of any other Member being required.

Section 4.6. Distributable Cash Flow.

(a) All Distributable Cash Flow, if any, attributable to each calendar month of each Fiscal Year (or portion thereof) shall be applied and distributed as follows, subject to Section 4.3(b):

(i) first, to replenish the Contingency Reserve up to an amount approved by the Members; and

(ii) second, to the Members, as follows:

(A) first, one hundred percent (100%) shall be distributed to the Members (including Manager) in accordance with their Interests until each Member has received an amount that yields it an Internal Rate of Return of at least eleven percent (11%);

(B) second, any remainder shall be distributed (1) eighty-nine percent (89%) to the Members (including Manager) in accordance with their Interests and (2) eleven percent (11%) to the Manager as an additional distribution until each Member has received and without regard to amounts paid to the Manager under Section 4.6(a)(ii)(B)(2) an amount that yields it an Internal Rate of Return of at least twenty-five percent (25%);

(C) third, any remainder shall be distributed (1) sixty-five percent (65%) to the Members (including Manager) in accordance with their Interests and (2) thirty-five percent (35%) to the Manager as an additional distribution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if application of subsections (ii)(B) and (C) would cause the Members to receive an amount that, when aggregated with all prior distributions referenced in Section 4.6(a) and Section 10.2(c) yields it an Internal Rate of Return of less than

 

21


eleven percent (11%), the additional distributions otherwise payable to the Manager under subsections (ii)(B) and (C) shall be reduced to the extent necessary for the Members to achieve a eleven percent (11%) Internal Rate of Return.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the distributions pursuant to Section 4.6(a)(ii) shall be adjusted to result in each of the Members receiving an equivalent Internal Rate of Return and without regard to amounts paid to the Manager under Sections 4.6(a)(ii)(B)(2).

Section 10.2. Method of Liquidation. Upon the happening of any event specified in Section 10.1 hereof, and provided the Company is not continued in accordance with Section 9.7, the Manager or, if there is no remaining Manager, such special liquidator as the Non-Managing Members shall designate by Majority Vote (either, the “Liquidator”), shall immediately commence to wind up the Company’s affairs and shall liquidate the Assets as promptly as possible, unless the Liquidator, with the approval of a Majority in Interest of the Members, shall determine that an immediate sale of Assets would cause undue loss to the Company, in which event (i) the liquidation may be deferred for a reasonable time, or (ii) all or part of the Assets may be distributed in kind. As promptly as possible after dissolution, the Liquidator shall prepare a final statement of account which shall reflect the status of each Member’s capital account and such other items and matters which they deem to be appropriate. The Liquidator, shall determine the fair market value of the remaining Company properties using appraisal techniques which it deems to be appropriate.

38


undivided interests in Company property which secures mortgage indebtedness, then each Member receiving such distribution of property in kind subject to such mortgage indebtedness shall be severally liable (as among each other, but not for the benefit of third parties) for his proportionate part of such mortgage indebtedness (which need not be paid or otherwise discharged out of the proceeds of liquidation) in proportion to his interest in such property so distributed; provided, further, that no Member intends hereby to incur (except as among each other, and then only to the extent of the value of his interest), nor does he assume any liability on any such mortgage indebtedness which he has not previously incurred under the terms of the instrument creating such mortgage indebtedness; then

(b) to the repayment of any loans made to the Company directly by Members (including pursuant to Section 4.3(b)) but if the amount available for such repayment is insufficient to repay all such loans, then pro rata on account thereof, the amount to be distributed to any such Member being in the proportion which the unpaid principal balance of any loans made to the Company by such Member bears to the aggregate unpaid principal balances of loans made to the Company by all Members; then

(c) the remaining liquidation proceeds, if any, shall be distributed to the Members in accordance with their respective positive Capital Account balances.

Section 10.3. Date of Termination.

If the selling Member defaults on its obligation to transfer its Interest to the purchasing Member at the closing as required by this Article XI, then in addition to any rights or remedies that the purchasing Member may have at law or equity, including, without limitation, an action for specific performance, the Interest of the defaulting selling Member shall be reduced by fifty percent (50%) immediately after the closing date and the Interests of the non-defaulting Member shall be increased accordingly, and if the purchasing Member seeks to enforce the defaulting Member’s) obligation to sell, the Purchase Price shall be recalculated based on the selling Member reduced Interest.

(f) No Continuing Liability. From and after the closing, the selling Member shall have no further interest in the assets or profits of the Company and the obligations of the Company to the selling Member shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged in full. The selling Member shall not be responsible for any losses of the Company, including losses or liabilities arising after the closing. The purchasing Member shall indemnify and defend the selling Member for all liabilities and losses arising from incidents or transactions occurring after the closing, including, without limitation any liability that any selling Member (or its Affiliate) might have under any guaranties given in connection with any indebtedness of the Company or the Property Owner with respect to any incidents or actions occurring after the closing.

Each Member hereby consents in advance and will make reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of its Agents to any motion for any protective order brought by any other Member or Affiliate of a Member represented as being intended by the movant to implement the purposes of this Section 14.9, provided that if a Member receives a request to disclose any Information under the terms of a valid and effective order issued by a court or government agency and the order was not sought by or on behalf of or consented to by the Member, the Member may disclose the Information to the extent required if the Member as

 

46


promptly as practicable (i) notifies the Manager of the existence, terms and circumstances of the order, (ii) consults in good faith with the Manager on the advisability of taking legally available steps to resist or to narrow the order, and (iii) if disclosure of the Information is required, exercises its best efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the portion of the disclosed Information that the Manager designates. The cost (including without limitation attorneys’ fees and expenses) of obtaining a protective order covering Information designated by the Manager will be a Company cost.

(c) Miscellaneous. The covenants contained in this Section 14.9 will survive the transfer of the interest in the Company of any Member and the termination of the Company.

(d) No Effect on Competition. This Section 14.9 will not prevent a Member or Affiliate permitted to do so from competing with the Company or from using business contacts and general knowledge of operating procedures in the competing business.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall not engage in any business, and it shall have no purpose, unrelated to the Property Owner and its related property and shall not acquire any real property or own assets other than those related to the Property Owner and/or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Company.

 

2. The Manager, and any additional or substitute Manager of the Company, may not be an individual and shall at all times have as its sole purpose to act as the Manager of the Company, and shall be engaged in no other business or have any other purpose. Additionally, any additional or substitute Manager of the Company shall have organizational documents which conform in all material respects to the organizational documents of the Manager.

 

3. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Manager shall have no authority to perform any act in respect of the Company in violation of any (i) applicable laws or regulations or (ii) any agreement between the Company and Wachovia Bank, National Association or its successors or assigns (collectively, the “Lender”).

 

4. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, so long as any indebtedness remains outstanding by the Company to the Lender, the Company shall not:

(a) make any loans to the Manager or its Affiliates;

(b) except as permitted by the Lender in writing, sell, encumber (except with respect to the Lender) or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties of the Company (a sale or disposition will be deemed to be “all or substantially all of the properties of the Company” if the sale or disposition includes the Property Owner or if the total value of the properties sold or disposed of in such transaction and during the twelve months preceding such transaction is 66-2/3% or more in value of the Company’s total assets as of the end of the most recently completed Company fiscal year);

(c) dissolve, wind-up, or liquidate the Company;

(d) merge, consolidate or acquire substantially all the assets of another person or entity;

(e) change the nature of the business conducted by the Company; or

 

73


(f) except as permitted by the Lender in writing, amend or modify this Agreement.

For purposes of this Agreement, Affiliate means any person or entity which directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries controls, is controlled by or is under common control with a Member. For purposes hereof, the terms “control”, “controlled”, or “controlling” shall include, without limitation, (i) the ownership, control or power to vote ten percent (10%) or more of (x) the members or (y) the Company or beneficial interests of any such person or entity, as the case may be, directly or indirectly, or acting through one or more persons or entities, (ii) the control in any manner over the Manager(s) or the election of more than one director or trustee (or persons exercising similar functions) of such person or entity, or (iii) the power to exercise, directly or indirectly, control over the management or policies of such person or entity.

 

5. All funds of the Company shall be deposited in such checking accounts, savings accounts, time deposits, or certificates of deposit in the Company’s name or shall be invested in the Company’s name, in such manner as shall be designated by the Manager from time to time. Company funds shall not be commingled with those of any other person or entity. Company funds shall be used by the Manager only for the business of the Company.

 

6. Title to Company assets shall be held in the Company’s name.

 

7.

8. The Company shall have no indebtedness, secured or unsecured, direct or contingent (including guaranteeing any obligation) and shall incur no liability other than (a) the Loan made to the Company by the Lender and (b) trade payables or accrued expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business of operating the Project (provided, however, that all such sums shall be paid in full promptly by the Company, but in no event later than sixty (60) days of the date incurred) and no other debt will be secured (senior, subordinate or pari passu) by the Project.

 

9.

The Company shall not terminate solely as a consequence of the bankruptcy, insolvency, appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee or sequestrator (or other similar official) of a member of the Company or a substantial part of such member’s property, or assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or an admission in writing of the inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or any similar action, of one or more of the

 

74


  members, so long as there remains a solvent manager of the Company

 

75


10. The Company shall at all times observe the applicable legal requirements for the recognition of the Company as a legal entity separate from any members of the Company (each a “Member”) and Affiliates, including, without limitation, as follows:

  (i) The Company is and will be solvent and shall pay its own liabilities, indebtedness and obligations of any kind, including all administrative expenses, from its own separate assets.

 

  (j)

76


  and if held on behalf of the Company by another entity, shall at all times be kept identifiable (in accordance with customary usages) as assets owned by the Company. This restriction requires, among other things, that Company funds shall not be commingled with those of any Affiliate and it shall maintain all accounts in its own name and with its own tax identification number, separate from those of any Affiliate.

 

  (k) The Company shall not take any action if as a result of such action, the Company would be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

  (o) The Company shall not enter into any contract or agreement with any employee, shareholder, consultant, agent, director, partner, member or manager of the Company or any Affiliate, as applicable, except upon terms and conditions that are intrinsically fair and substantially similar to those that would be available on an arms-length basis with third parties other than an Affiliate.

 

  (p) The Company shall file its own tax returns.

 

  (q) The Company shall not do any act which would make it impossible to carry on the ordinary business of the Company.
