LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY OPERATING AGREEMENT PFG Fund V, LLC

(2) No Member may resell or otherwise transfer any Membership Interests without the satisfaction of certain conditions designed to comply with applicable tax and securities laws, including (without limitation) the requirement that certain legal opinions be provided to the Members and the Manager with respect to such matters at the expense of the Member requesting such transfer. The transferee must meet any investor qualifications as is set forth by the Manager. Furthermore, if the Act imposes a transfer restriction on the Membership Interests, then Membership Interests may not be sold or transferred unless permitted otherwise.

(3) The Membership Interests have not been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon exemptions provided for therein. Membership Interests may not be sold or otherwise transferred without registration under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption therefrom.

Such consent may be withheld for any reason (or no reason). In the event that such consent is granted, the Transfer and the transferee must comply with all the provisions of this Agreement and all applicable law. No Membership Interests may be transferred if, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Manager, such a Transfer would jeopardize the availability of exemptions from registration under federal securities laws, the tax status of the Company or cause termination of the Company for federal income tax purposes.

(4) the Company receives from the Transferee the information and agreements reasonably required to permit it to file federal and state income tax returns and reports; and

However, the Member will remain liable for any obligation with respect to the transferred portion that existed prior to the effective date of the Transfer, including (without limitation) any costs or damages resulting from the Member’s breach of this Agreement.

6

LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY OPERATING AGREEMENT PFG Fund V, LLC

(e) Transferee’s Status.

(1) Admission as a Member. A Member who Transfers one or more Membership Interests has no power to confer on the Transferee the status of a Member. A Transferee may be admitted as a Member only in accordance with the provisions of this Article 3. A Transferee who wishes to become a Member must make an application in writing to the Company and provide evidence, as requested by the Company, of compliance with all conditions to admission, as set forth above. Prior to admission, each proposed member must execute and deliver a counterpart of this Agreement, as amended to date, or a separate written agreement to be bound hereby.

(2) Rights of Non-Member Transferee. A Transferee who is not admitted as a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Article 3 (i) has no right to vote or otherwise participate in the Company’s governance, (ii) is not entitled to receive information concerning the Company’s affairs or inspect the Company’s books and records, (iii) with respect to the transferred Membership Interests, is entitled to receive the Distributions to which the Member would have been entitled had the Transfer not occurred, and (iv) is subject to the restrictions imposed by this Article 3 to the same extent as a Member. Any provision of the Agreement permitting or requiring the Members to take action by vote or written approval of a specified percentage of the Membership Interests shall be deemed to mean only Membership Interests then owned by Members.

3.3 Expulsion of a Member. At any time there are more than two (2) Members, the Company may expel a Member for cause. Cause for expulsion exists if the Member has materially breached or is unable to perform the Member’s material obligations under this Agreement. A Member’s expulsion from the Company will be effective upon the Member’s receipt of written notice of the expulsion.

3.4 No Withdrawals. Except as expressly provided herein, no Member or Transferee may withdraw his, her or its Contribution to the Company at any time nor may any Member compel the Company to effectuate any redemption of his, her or its Membership Interests.

3.5 Dissociation. “Dissociation” from the Company occurs upon a Member’s expulsion, transfer or redemption of all of the Member’s Membership Interests, withdrawal or resignation (an “Event of Dissociation”). Upon the occurrence of an Event of Dissociation: (a) the Member’s right to participate in the Company’s governance, receive information concerning the Company’s affairs and inspect the Company’s books and records will terminate and (b) unless the Dissociation resulted from the Transfer of the Member’s Membership Interests, the Member will be entitled to receive the Distributions to which the Member would have been entitled as of the effective date of the Dissociation had the Dissociation not occurred. The Member will remain liable for any obligation to the Company that existed prior to the effective date of the Dissociation, including any costs or damages from the Member’s breach of this Agreement. The Member will have no automatic right to any return of his, her or its capital (or redemption of his, her or its Membership Interests) prior to the termination of the Company unless the Company affirmatively elects (in its sole and absolute discretion) to return capital to a Member. The effect of such Dissociation on the remaining Members who do not sell or dissociate will be to increase their percentage share of the remaining assets of the Company, and thus their proportionate share of its future earnings, losses and distributions. The reduction in the outstanding Membership Interests will also increase the relative voting power of remaining Members.

Within Thirty (30) days after receipt of a Member’s written request, the Company will provide such Member with a statement evidencing his, her or its ownership of Membership Interests in the Company. This verification will serve the sole purpose of verifying the Member’s interest in the Company and shall not constitute a certificated security, negotiable instrument or other vehicle by which to effectuate a transfer of Membership Interests.

7.2 Effect of Dissolution.

(a) Appointment of Liquidator. Upon the Company’s dissolution, the Manager (unless unwilling or unable to serve as such) shall serve as liquidator, and as such will wind up and liquidate the Company in an orderly, prudent and expeditious manner in accordance with the following provisions of this Article. While serving as liquidator, the Manager shall have the same authority, powers, duties and compensation as before dissolution, except that the liquidator shall not acquire any additional assets for the Company, and shall use its best efforts to liquidate the Company’s existing assets as rapidly as is consistent with receiving the fair market value thereof. If the Manager is unwilling or unable to serve as liquidator, or has resigned or been removed, the Members shall elect another person, who may be a Member, to serve as liquidator.

(b) Distributions Upon Dissolution. All funds received by the Company shall be applied to satisfy or provide for Company debts and liabilities and the balance, if any, shall be distributed to Members on a pro-rata basis as is consistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

(c) Time for Liquidation. The Company will not immediately cease to exist upon the occurrence of an event causing its dissolution, but will continue until its affairs have been wound up. It is acknowledged and agreed that the assets of the Company are illiquid, and will take time to sell. The liquidator shall liquidate the Company’s assets as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair market value thereof, either by sale to third parties by auction to the highest bidder in a reasonably promoted auction (or other commercially reasonable suitable means, if necessary).

(d) Final Accounting. The liquidator will make proper accountings, (1) to the end of the month in which the event of dissolution occurred, and (2) to the date on which the Company is finally and completely liquidated.

(e) Duties and Authority of Liquidator. The liquidator will make adequate provision for the discharge of all of the Company’s debts, obligations and liabilities. The liquidator may sell, encumber or retain for distribution in kind any of the Company’s assets. Any gain or loss recognized on the sale of assets will be allocated to the Members’ Capital Accounts in accordance with the provisions of Article 4 above. With respect to any asset the liquidator determines to retain for distribution in kind, the liquidator will allocate to the Members’ Capital Accounts the amount of gain or loss that would have been recognized had the asset been sold at its fair market value.

(f) Final Distribution. The liquidator will distribute any assets remaining after the discharge or accommodation of the Company’s debts, obligations and liabilities to the Members in proportion to their Capital Accounts. The liquidator will distribute any assets distributable in kind to the Members in undivided interests as tenants in common. A Member whose Capital Account is negative will have no liability to the Company, the Company’s creditors or any other Member with respect to the negative balance.

(g) Required Filings. The liquidator will file with the appropriate Secretary of State such statements, certificates and other instruments, and take such other actions, as are reasonably necessary or appropriate to effectuate and confirm the cessation of the Company’s existence.
