All provisions of the Certificate and this Agreement are to be so construed so as to preserve that status under the appropriate circumstances. At any time that the Company has only one Member, all activities and items of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit or the like of the Company shall be treated as activities and items of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit or the like of the Member. At any time that the Company has more than one Member, it is the intention of the Members that the Company shall be taxed as a “partnership” for federal, state, local and foreign income tax purposes.

9.1 Assignment. The Member may assign, in whole or in part, its Membership Interest.

Such admission shall be deemed effective immediately upon the transfer, and immediately upon such admission.

9.2 Pledge. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Member may cause, or permit to be created, a lien or security interest upon its Membership Interest, provided that such lien or security interest is in favor of a lender to the Company and is granted in connection with a financing transaction or arrangement the proceeds of which will be used directly for the benefit of the Company or its affiliates. In the event that the third party is a lender and executes its rights under any such lien or security interest, such third party lender or its successor shall have all of the rights of the Member hereunder, provided that such third party lender or successor thereto agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

10.1 Term. The term of the Company shall commence on the date as of which the Certificate was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and shall continue in perpetuity until terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof or as provided by law.

In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or any application of it or them shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions and any other application of it or them shall not in any way be affected or impaired by such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability.

11.3 Binding Effect. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Member and its respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, transferees and assigns.

11.4 Terminology. As the context may require, the singular shall include the plural, as appropriate. Titles of Articles and Sections are for convenience only and neither limit nor amplify the provisions of this Agreement itself.
