Each Member shall have the percentage interest in the Company (“Membership Interest”) as set forth on Schedule A.

  Allocation of Profits and Losses   The Company’s profits and losses shall be allocated in proportion to the Membership Interest of the Members. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Company has only one member (a) except as otherwise required by applicable provisions of tax law, solely for federal income tax purposes and for purposes of certain state tax laws, the Company shall be disregarded as an entity separate from the Member; and (b) each item of Company income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit shall be treated as if realized directly by, and shall be allocated one hundred percent (100%) to, the Member.

9.
  Distributions   Distributions shall be made to the Members at the times and in the aggregate amounts determined by the Members. Such distributions shall be allocated among the Members in the same proportion as their Membership Interests.

12.
  Admission of Additional Members   One or more additional members of the Company may be admitted to the Company with the consent of all of the Members, and upon being so admitted shall become bound by all of the terms of this Agreement, and shall execute a written joinder to this Agreement.

13.
  Indemnification   The Company shall indemnify the Members, the members of the Board of Managers and any officer or employee of the Company, and may so indemnify any agent of the Company, who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (including, without limitation, an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of any action or omission in their respective capacities against any liabilities, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses and any other costs and expenses incurred in connection with defending such action, suit or proceeding), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the Person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, if the Person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe its, his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendre or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption (a) that the Person did not act in good faith and in a manner which it, he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and (b) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, that the Person had reasonable cause to believe its, his or her conduct was unlawful. Expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by a Person seeking indemnification hereunder shall be paid in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking from the Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the Person is not entitled to indemnification.
 
 
      The indemnity provided by this Section 13 shall be in accordance with and to the full extent now or hereafter permitted by law, provided that, in no event shall any subsequent change in law have the effect of reducing or diminishing the indemnification provided for herein.

 
      For purposes of this Section 13, the word “Person” shall include the Members, the members of the Board of Managers and any officer, employee or agent of the Company.
