The Manager shall execute, deliver and file any other certificates (and any amendments and/or restatements thereof). The Manager hereby adopts and ratifies the Certificate, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A hereto. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Operating Agreement and the terms of the Certificate, the terms of the Certificate shall prevail.

     4. Purpose. The purpose for which the Company is organized is to transact any and all lawful business incident thereto for which a Limited Liability Company may be organized under the Act.

     10. Officers. The Manager may elect a president, one or more vice presidents, treasurer, secretary and such other officer or officers as it may deem necessary. Unless the Manager decides otherwise, if the title is one commonly used for officers of a business corporation formed under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the assignment of such title shall constitute the delegation to such person of the authorities and duties that are normally associated with that office. Any two or more of such offices may be held by the same person. The officers of the Company (if any) shall hold office until their successors are elected and qualified, or for such order period as the Manager may provide, but any officer may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by the Manager without prejudice to the contract rights, if any, of the officers who were removed. The Manager may fill any vacancy in the office at any time. All of the officers of the Company shall at all times be and remain subject to the direction or control of the Manager.
