SECTION 4

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: INDEMNIFICATION

4.01. Limitation of Liability of Manager. In any proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company or brought by or on behalf of the Member, a Manager (in its capacity as a Manager) or any of its Affiliates shall not be liable to the Company or its Member for any monetary damages arising out of any transaction, occurrence or course of conduct, unless in such proceeding the Manager or any of its Affiliates was adjudged to have engaged in willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the criminal law.

 

5


4.02. Indemnity of Manager. The Manager shall be indemnified by the Company under the following circumstances and in the manner and to the extent indicated:

(a) Every Person, and his/its heirs, executors and administrators, who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding of any kind, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative, or was or is the subject of any claim, and whether or not by or in the right of the Company, by reason of his/its being or having been a Manager, or by reason of his/its serving or having served at the request of the Company as a director, officer, manager, employee or agent of another Entity, or at the request of the Company in any capacity that under Federal law regulating employee benefit plans would or might constitute him/it a fiduciary with respect to any such plan, whether or not such plan is or was for employees of the Company, shall be indemnified by the Company against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, penalties, awards, costs, amounts paid in settlement and liabilities of all kinds, actually and reasonably incurred by him/it in connection with, or resulting from, such action, suit, proceeding or claim, if he/it acted in good faith and in the manner he/it 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 his/its conduct was unlawful, provided that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which he/it shall have been adjudicated to be liable to the Company for willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the criminal law in the performance of his/its duty to the Company unless, and only to the extent, that the court in which such action, suit or proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all circumstances of the case, he/it is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity. The termination of any such action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or by settlement, shall not of itself create a presumption that any such Person did not act in good faith and in a manner he/it reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interest of the Company.

(b) Any indemnification under Section 4.02(a) (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of such Person is proper in the circumstances because the Manager had met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in such paragraph. Such determination may be made either (i) if there is more than one Manager, by the Managers by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Managers who were not a party to such action, suit or proceeding, (ii) if such a quorum is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, if a quorum of disinterested Managers so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (iii) by the Member.

(c) Reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by or in respect of any such Person in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative, shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition thereof upon receipt of an undertaking by, or on behalf of, such Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he/it is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.

(d) The Manager of the Company shall have the power, generally and in specific cases, to indemnify its employees and agents to the same extent as provided in this Section 4.02 with respect to its Manager.

(e) The provisions of this Section 4.02 are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other right to indemnity to which any Person who is or may be indemnified by or pursuant to

 

6


this Section 4.02 may otherwise be entitled, and to the powers otherwise accorded by law to the Company to indemnify any such Person and to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any such Person against any liability asserted against or incurred by it in any capacity referred to in this Section 4.02 or arising from its status as serving or having served in any such capacity (whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnity against such liability).

(f) If any provision of this Section 4.02 shall be adjudicated invalid or unenforceable, such adjudication shall not be deemed to invalidate or otherwise affect any other provision hereof or any power of indemnity which the Company may have under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

(g) No amendment or repeal of this Section 4.02 shall limit or eliminate the right to indemnification provided hereunder with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

(h) So long as any obligations (other than Unasserted Obligations (as such term is defined in the Loan Documents)) of the Company to the lenders under the Loan Documents remain outstanding, this Section 4.02(h) shall remain in full force and effect and the indemnification provided herein shall be subordinated to the obligations under the Loan Documents; provided, however that so long as no “Event of Default” (as such term is defined in the Loan Documents) then exists under the Loan Documents, the Company shall be permitted to make any payment described in this Section 4.02.

4.03. No Personal Liability to Member. Notwithstanding any provision of Section 4.02 above, the indemnification provided in Section 4.02 shall in no event cause the Member to incur any liability to the Company beyond its total Capital Contributions plus its share of any undistributed profits of the Company, nor shall it result in any liability of the Member to any third party.

SECTION 5

ACTION BY THE MEMBER

5.01. Meetings. Meetings of the Member, for any purpose or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by statute, may be called by the Manager or the Member at any time.

5.02. Action by Consent. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Member may be taken without a meeting if one or more written consents to such action are signed by the Member. Action taken under this Section 5.02 is effective when the Member signs the consent or consents, unless the consent or consents specifies a different effective date.

SECTION 6

CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE COMPANY AND DISTRIBUTIONS

6.01. Member’s Capital Contributions.

(a) Initial Capital Contribution. The initial Capital Contribution described on Schedule 1 (the “Real Property”) was made by the previous Member. An additional Capital Contribution in the amount of $31,898,134.29 was made by the Member in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

 

7


(b) Additional Capital Contributions. The Member shall not be required to make any further Capital Contributions beyond those set forth in Section 6.01(a) above.

(c) Loans. The Manager may endeavor to obtain a loan or loans to the Company, from time to time, for necessary capital on reasonable terms, in order to finance the ownership and operation of the business of the Company, including the loan evidenced by the Loan Documents.

(d) Loans to Company by Member. Nothing in this Operating Agreement shall prevent the Member from making secured or unsecured loans to the Company by agreement with the Company in accordance with the terms of this Operating Agreement.

6.02. Distributions. Distributions shall be made by the Company to the Member at such times and in such amounts as the Member shall determine in its sole discretion; provided, however, the Company’s obligation, and the Manager’s authority, to make any distribution is subject to the restrictions governing distributions under the Act and such other pertinent governmental restrictions as are now and may hereafter become effective. Currently, among other prohibitions, the Act prohibits the Company from making a distribution to the extent that, after giving effect to the distribution, liabilities of the Company exceed the fair value of the assets of the Company.

SECTION 7

TAX MATTERS

7.01. Tax Status. It is intended that the Company be treated as a single member entity within the meaning of Section 301.7701-2(c)(2) of the Treasury Regulations and, accordingly, disregarded as a separate entity for tax purposes.

8.01. Events of Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

(c) As otherwise required by Virginia law.

 

8


8.02. Liquidation. Upon the dissolution of the Company, it shall wind up its affairs by either or a combination of both of the following methods as the Manager (or if there is no Manager, such Person or Persons appointed by the Member) shall in his sole discretion determine:

(a) Selling the Company’s assets and, after paying the Company’s liabilities or reserving sufficient funds for such liabilities, distributing the net proceeds to the Member in satisfaction of its interest in the Company; and/or

(b) Distributing the Company’s assets to the Member in kind with the Member accepting the Company’s assets, subject to its liabilities, in satisfaction of its interest in the Company.

8.03. Orderly Liquidation. A reasonable time as determined by the Manager (or the Person or Persons carrying out the liquidation) not to exceed eighteen (18) months shall be allowed for the orderly liquidation of the assets of the Company and the discharge of liabilities to the creditors so as to minimize any losses attendant upon dissolution.

8.04. Distributions. Upon dissolution, the Company’s assets (including any cash on hand) shall be distributed in the following order and in accordance with the following priorities:

(a) First, to the payment of the debts and liabilities of the Company (including but not limited to loans made by the Member or Manager) and the expenses of liquidation, including a sales commission to the selling agent, if any; then

(b) Second, to the setting up of any reserves which the Manager (or the Person or Persons carrying out the liquidation) shall deem reasonably necessary for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company. Said reserves shall be paid over to a bank or an attorney at law as escrow agent to be held for the purpose of disbursing such reserves in payment of any of the aforementioned contingencies. At the expiration of such period as the Manager (or the Person or Persons carrying out the liquidation) shall deem advisable, but in no event to exceed eighteen (18) months, the Manager shall distribute the balance thereof in the manner provided in the following subparagraph; then

(c) Third, to the Member.

8.05. Certificate of Cancellation.

(a) Within a reasonable time following the completion of the liquidation of the Company, there shall be supplied to the Member a statement which shall set forth the assets and the liabilities of the Company as of the date of complete liquidation. Upon completion of the liquidation of the Company and the distribution of all the Company’s assets, the Company shall terminate, and the Member shall execute and record a Certificate of Cancellation of the Company as well as any and all other documents required to effectuate the dissolution and termination of the Company.

 

9


(b) Upon the issuance of the filing of the Certificate of Cancellation, the existence of the Company shall cease, except for the purpose of suits, other proceedings and appropriate action as provided in the Act. The Manager shall thereafter be trustees for the Member and creditors of the Company and as such shall have authority to distribute any Company property discovered after dissolution, convey real estate, if any, and take such other action as may be necessary on behalf of and in the name of the Company.

SECTION 9
