(a)                Members. A Person shall be admitted as a Member and shall become bound by the terms of this Agreement if such Person purchases or otherwise lawfully acquires Membership Interests in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Offering Circular. A Person may become a Member only with the consent and approval of the Manager, whose consent may be denied or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion. The Manager will be the Initial Member of the Company. Upon admission of additional Members, the Manager may withdraw as a Member of the Company, but shall continue to serve as Manager. in addition, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prohibit the Manager from increasing its interest in the Company on the same basis as any other Person. The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Membership Interests, all of which shall be issued in accordance with the provisions of the Offering Circular and Article 3 of this Agreement.

4

(b)                Additional and Substitute Members. The Company may admit additional or substitute Members with the sole approval of the Manager. Except as set forth herein, the Manager may withhold approval of the admission of any Person for any or no reason. The Manager will not permit any person to become a member until such person has agreed to be bound by all the provisions of this Operating Agreement as amended as of the date of the proposed admission, and the terms of the Offering Circular, and has delivered to the Company a completed Subscription Agreement along with payment in the amount of such investment.

(c)                Rights of Additional or Substitute Members. A Person admitted as an additional or substitute Member has all the rights and powers, and is subject to all the restrictions and obligations of a Member under this Agreement and the Act.

(d)                General Rights of Members. Except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement: (i) no Member shall be entitled to the withdrawal or return of its Capital Contribution, except to the extent, if any, that distributions made pursuant to this Agreement or upon dissolution or termination of the Company may be considered as such by law and then only to the extent provided for in this Agreement; (ii) no Member shall have priority over any other Member as to the return of Capital Contributions or as to distributions, unless as set forth in this Agreement; and (iii) no Member, in its capacity as such, shall participate in the operation or management of the business of the Company, transact any business in the Company’s name or have the power to sign documents for or otherwise bind the Company by reason of being a Member.

3.2 Transfer of Membership Interests.

(a)                Membership Interests Registry. The Company shall keep or cause to be kept on behalf of the Company a register of the Members of the Company. The Company may, but shall not be required to, appoint a Transfer Agent registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as such.

(b)                Manager Discretion of Transfer. The Manager may accept or reject subscription, including Transfer, to acquire Membership Interests for any reason, in the sole discretion of the Manager.

3.3              Redemptions and Withdrawals. Members will be required to hold their Membership Interests for a minimum of Twelve (12) months before they may request to withdraw from the Company and have their Membership Interests redeemed. Thereafter, a Member may request withdrawal from the Company and give at least Ninety (90) days’ prior written notice prior to the Manager. The Company will use its best efforts to return capital subject to, among other things, the Company’s then cash flow, financial condition, and prospective investments in assets. Furthermore, any Member requesting redemption will be responsible for any third-party costs incurred in effecting such redemption, including but not limited to, bank transaction charges, custody fees, and/or Transfer Agent charges (as applicable).

A Member's redemption amount shall be based on the capital account balance with the Company. In requesting for redemption, the Member shall specify the amount the Member requests to withdraw and shall be subject to the Manager's approval. While the Company intends to allow Members to request redemptions on an ongoing basis, the Company has imposed limitations on the amount of individual redemption requests in order to maintain liquidity to satisfy redemption requests without impacting the Company’s ability to invest in Loans and properties. Accordingly, each request for withdrawal or redemption shall be limited to per Member to withdraw the requested amount; provided, however, that the maximum aggregate amount of capital that the Company will return to the Members each fiscal year is limited to Ten Percent (10%) of the total outstanding capital of the Company. Withdrawal requests will be processed by the Company on a first-come, first-served basis.

5

The above requirements regarding the withdrawal amount and the timing of any specific withdrawal may be modified by the Manager, in its sole and absolute discretion, based on, amongst other things, the Company's current cash flow, the amount of the Company's reserves, and the Company's then- current financial condition. However, in the event that the Company amends, suspends or terminates withdrawals, the Company will file an offering circular supplement and/or Form 1-U, as necessary, and inform Members of such amendment.

The Manager may at any time suspend the withdrawal of funds from the Company, upon the occurrence of any of the following circumstances: (i) whenever, as a result of events, conditions or circumstances beyond the control or responsibility of the Manager or the Company, disposal of the assets of the Company is not reasonably practicable without being detrimental to the interests of the Company or its Members, determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Manager; or (ii) if the Manager has determined to dissolve the Company. Notice of any suspension will be given within Ten (10) business days from the time the decision was made to suspend distributions to any Member who has submitted a withdrawal request and to whom full payment of the redemption proceeds has not yet been remitted. If a redemption request is not rescinded by a Member following notification of a suspension, the redemption will be effected as of the last day of the calendar month in which the suspension is lifted.

3.4              Expulsion of a Member. At any time there are more than Two (2) Members, the Company may expel a Member, but only for cause. Cause for expulsion exists if the Member has materially breached this Agreement, is unable to perform the Member's material obligations under this Agreement, or if the Manager suspects the Member has violated federal or state law, rules, and regulations or the Member is under investigation by the federal, state, and/or local authorities, subject to the sole and absolute discretion and notwithstanding any of the withdrawal restrictions described herein. If a Member is expelled, that Member forfeits any and all rights to any accrued distribution during the interim quarter whether or not the withdrawal is partial or total. A Member's expulsion from the Company will be effective upon the Member's receipt of written notice of the expulsion.

3.5               Return of Capital. Subject to the terms contained herein, the Company may return all or a portion of a Member's capital at the Manager's discretion. Any such return of capital would not be considered a Distribution and would not be included in the determination of such Member's return on investment. However, any such return of capital would reduce the Member’s Membership Interest in the Company. Thus, if Manager elects to return all of Member’s capital, Member shall no longer be a Member in the Company and the Member would be considered to have withdrawn or to have elected redemption from the Company.

3.6               Upon 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: (1) 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 (2) 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 resulting from the Member's breach of this Agreement. Under most circumstances, the Member will have no right to any return of his or her capital prior to the termination of the Company unless the Manager elects to return capital to a Member. The effect of such Dissociation on the remaining Members who do not sell 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.

6

3.7               Verification of Membership Interest. 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 Membership Interest in the Company.

3.8 Manner of Action by Members.

(a) Meetings.

(1)               Right to Call. The Manager, or any combination of Members holding in the aggregate more than Seventy-Five Percent (75%) of the total outstanding Membership Interest, may call a meeting of Members by giving written notice to all Members and the Manager not less than Thirty (30), or more than Sixty (60) days prior to the date of the meeting. The notice must specify the date, time and place of the meeting and the nature of any business to be transacted. A Member may waive notice of a meeting of Members orally, in writing, or by attendance at the meeting.

(2)               Time and Place. Unless otherwise specified in the notice of meeting, all meetings shall be held at 2:00 p.m. on a regular business day of the Company, at the Company's principal place of business.

(3)               Proxy Voting. A Member may act at a meeting of Members through a Person authorized by signed proxy.

(4)               Quorum. Members whose aggregate holdings exceed a Majority of the outstanding Membership Interest will constitute a quorum at a meeting of Members. No action may be taken in the absence of a quorum.

(5)               Required Vote.

(b)               Written Consent. The Members may act without a meeting by written consent describing the action and signed by Members whose aggregate holdings of the Membership Interest equal or exceed the minimum that would be necessary to take the action at a meeting at which all Members were present.

3.9              Limitation on Individual Authority. A Member who is not also the Manager has no authority to bind the Company. A Member whose unauthorized act obligates the Company to a third party will indemnify the Company for any costs or damages the Company incurs as a result of the unauthorized act.

3.10           Negation of Fiduciary Duties. A Member who is not also the Manager owes no fiduciary duties to the Company or to the other Members solely by reason of being a Member.

3.12           ERISA Considerations. The Manager intends to limit the equity participation by “benefit plan investors” (as defined in Section 3(42) of ERISA) in the Company to less than Twenty-Five Percent (25%) of Membership Interests in the Company, to the extent required.

3.13           Redemptions in Connection with ERISA.

ARTICLE 4: FINANCE

4.1 Contributions.

(a)                Initial Member. The Manager will be the Initial Member of the Company. The Capital Contributions made to the Company by the Members are set forth on Schedule 1 to this Agreement. The Company will amend Schedule 1 from time to time to reflect additional Capital Contributions made to the Company.

(b)                Additional Members. The Company may admit additional or substitute Members with the sole approval of the Manager. Except as set forth herein, the Manager may withhold approval of the admission of any Person for any or no reason. The Manager will not permit any person to become a member until such person has agreed to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement as amended as of the date of the proposed admission, and the terms of the Offering Circular, and has delivered to the Company a completed Subscription Agreement along with payment in the amount of such investment. Members’ subscription funds will be deposited to the operating bank account of the Company and Membership Interests will be issued to such Members.

(c)                Additional Contributions. The Company may authorize additional Contributions at such times and on such terms and conditions as it determines to be in its best interest. Absent the Company's authorization, no Member is permitted to make additional Contributions.

4.3               Tax Allocations. For federal income tax purposes, unless the Code otherwise requires, each item of the Company's income, gain, loss or deduction will be allocated to the Members in proportion to their allocations of the Company's Profit or Loss.

8

4.4 Distributions.

(a)                The Preferred Return. Members will generally be entitled to receive an annualized Preferred Return calculated by reference to their capital account balances, payable after the end of each quarter (and prorated as applicable for the amount of time that a Member was a member of the Company during such quarter) (the “Preferred Return”). This Preferred Return will be payable prior to any other distributions to Members (however, all expenses and fees other than profit participation will be paid to the Manager and any allocation of income for a loan loss reserve will be made prior to the distribution of the Preferred Return). The Preferred Return for any Member shall be equal to a non-cumulative annualized rate of Seven Percent (7%), calculated and payable on a quarterly basis.

In addition, in the event that the Company does not have funds available to pay the Preferred Return, the payment of the Preferred Return may be delayed until such funds are available, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Manager.

(b) Distribution of Net Profits. The Net Profits shall be distributed on a quarterly basis

as follows:

(1) First, to pay the Preferred Return to Members on a pro-rata basis;

(2)                Second, from any remaining amount of Net Profits following the payment of the Preferred Return referred to in Section 4.4(b)(1) above, to pay StartEngine per quarter, until StartEngine has received an amount, as calculated by the Manager, equal to an annual rate of Two Percent (2%) of the aggregate capital account balances of the Members (pro-rated as applicable on the same basis as the Preferred Return; that is, the amount of time a Member was a member of the Company during such quarter) (“Platform Fee”); and

(3)                Thereafter, of the remaining cash, One Hundred Percent (100%) of such cash will be distributed to the Members on a pro-rata basis.

All cash distributions of Net Profits will be made on a quarterly basis, in arrears, and distributions to Members shall be prorated as applicable for the amount of time that a Member was a member of the Company during such accounting period. Distribution of cash is not guaranteed, and shall be made only to the extent cash is available and provided that the distributions will not impact the continuing operations of the Company, subject to the sole and absolute discretion of the Manager.

(d) By the end of the Company's fiscal year, the Manager will make every effort to have distributed to each Member the amount of Profit or Loss that will be allocated to that Member on the Schedule K-1 that he, she, or it receives for income tax reporting. However, the amount of income reported to each Member on his, her, or its Schedule K-1 may differ somewhat from the actual cash distributions made during the fiscal year covered by the Schedule K-1 due to, among other things the loan loss reserve and factors unique to the tax accounting of limited liability companies, such as the treatment of investment expense.

4.5               Reinvestment Election. Members must elect to (a) receive cash with respect to the quarterly income distributions from the Company in the amount of that Member’s share of cash available for distribution, including the Preferred Return due to the Member, or (b) allow the reinvestment through purchase of additional Membership Interests at the price of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) with respect to the quarterly income distributions from the Company in the amount of that Member’s share of cash available for distribution, including the Preferred Return due to the Member. Fractional interests may be purchased by the Member who has elected to reinvest through the purchase of additional Membership Interests. Members must elect to receive cash or reinvest all of their quarterly income distributions, including their Preferred Returns. No partial reinvestment is permitted. If no election is made, then the quarterly income distribution and a Preferred Return will be automatically reinvested into the Company to purchase additional Membership Interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, reinvestments will be allowed to the extent that the Offering is qualified with the SEC and provided that such reinvestments do not exceed the offering amount that may be sold in any given Twelve (12) month period in accordance with Regulation A, Tier II requirements.

9

Members may change their election at any time upon Thirty (30) days written notice to the Company. Upon receipt and after the Thirty (30) day notice has occurred, the Member’s election shall be changed and reflected on the following first day of the quarter in which the Member is entitled to receive a distribution. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences, the Manager may at any time immediately commence with income distributions in cash only (hence, suspending the reinvestment option for such Member(s)) to any Member(s) in order for the Company to remain exempt from the ERISA plan asset regulations.

4.6 Capital Accounts.

(a)                General Maintenance. The Company will establish and maintain a Capital Account for each Member on a monthly basis. A Member's Capital Account Balance will be:

(1)                increased by: (i) the amount of any money the Member contributes to the Company's capital (including reinvestment of his, her, or its portion of distribution); and (ii) the Member's share of the Company’s Profits and any separately stated items of income or gain; and

(2)                decreased by: (i) the amount of any money the Company distributes to the Member; (ii) the Member's share of the Company’s Losses and any separately stated items of deduction or loss; and (iii) the amount of any withdrawals or redemption made by the Members in accordance with Section 3.3 above.

(b)               Transfer of Capital Account. A Transferee of Membership Interests succeeds to the portion of the transferor's Capital Account that corresponds to the portion of the Membership Interest that is the subject of the Transfer.

(c)                Compliance with Code. The requirements of this Article are intended and will be construed to ensure that the allocations of the Company's income, gain, losses, deductions and credits have substantial economic effect under the Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code.

ARTICLE 5: MANAGEMENT

5.1               Representative Management. The Company will be managed by One (1) Manager.

(2)               Justifiable Reliance. The Manager may rely on the Company's records maintained in good faith and on information, opinions, reports or statements received from any Person pertaining to matters the Manager reasonably believes to be within the Person's expertise or competence.

(c)                Competing Activities. The Manager may participate in any business or activity without accounting to the Company or the Members. Each Member waives the benefit of the corporate opportunity doctrine, on his or her own behalf and on behalf of the Company, and agrees that the Manager may deal in other real estate transactions for its own account and/or for the accounts of others without any requirement to account to the Company for such dealings.

(d)               Self-Dealing. In addition to the transactions expressly permitted by this Agreement, the Manager may enter into business transactions with the Company if the terms of the transaction are no less favorable to the Company than those of a similar transaction with an independent third party, including without limitation selling loans to, and buying loans from, the Company.

(e)                Specific Transactions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that the Manager shall be permitted to bargain for and accept the following transactions connected with the business of the Company, subject to the terms of any other agreement among the Members.

The Manager may service the loans or appoint an Affiliate to service the loans, or retain the services of a third-party loan servicer at any time for any reason (or no reason). The servicer, whether a third party or the Manager or its Affiliate, shall be herein referred to as the “Servicer.” The Servicer will be compensated by the borrowers and/or Company for such loan servicing activities, as agreed upon by the Manager and Servicer, as outlined below. To the extent applicable, the Manager will oversee the activities and performance of the Servicer.

(3)                Purchase of Existing Loans. When the Company purchases an existing loan (or pool of loans) from a third party, the Manager will be paid a fee comparable to a loan origination fee.

(4)                Loan Extension and Modification Fees Payable by Borrower. Loan extension and modification fees are collected from borrower and payable to the Manager, as part of the Manager’s compensation, as outlined below.

(5)                Loan Processing, Loan Documentation, and Other Similar Fees Payable by Borrower.

(8)                Property Management.

(9)                Reimbursement of Business Expenses. The Manager shall be entitled to reimbursement by the Fund (but only to the extent that Fund assets are sufficient therefor) for reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Manager on behalf of the Fund. Further, the Fund shall reimburse the Manager and its Affiliates for any reasonable formation, accounting, analyst, banking, transactional fees, and legal costs incurred in connection with the formation of the Fund and the capital raising activities undertaken by the Company.

(a)                The Manager and each of their respective successors in interest; (i) any Person that directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Manager; (ii) any officers, directors, shareholders, controlling Persons, partners, members, employees, representatives, directors or agents of the Manager, or any of their respective Affiliates; and

Members will not be individually obligated with respect to such indemnification beyond their respective contributions and the amount of distributions by the Company to Members described under Section 4.4.

(b)                Notwithstanding subsection (a) above, the Company shall not indemnify any Covered Person for liability imposed or expenses incurred in connection with any claim arising out of a violation of the Securities Act, or any other federal or state securities law, with respect to the offer and sale of the Membership Interests. Indemnification will be allowed for settlements and related expenses in lawsuits alleging securities law violations, and for expenses incurred in successfully defending such lawsuits, provided, that (i) the Manager is successful in defending the action, (ii) the indemnification is specifically approved by the court of law which shall have been advised as to the current position of the Securities and Exchange Commission (as to any claim involving allegations that the Securities Act was violated) or the applicable state authority (as to any claim involving allegations that the applicable state’s securities laws were violated) or (iii) in the opinion of the counsel of the Company, the right to indemnification has been settled by controlling precedent.

5.7               Compensation to Manager and Affiliates. The Company will compensate the Manager as follows for services rendered to or on behalf of the Company:

13

(a)                Asset Management Fee. The Manager shall earn an annual asset management fee (“Asset Management Fee”) of One Percent (1%) of Assets Under Management, calculated and payable monthly.

(b)                Loan Origination Fees and Lender Discount Points. Loan origination fees, exit fees, and lender discount points are generally collected from borrowers, by the Manager, on behalf of the Fund. Such fees and points average (in the aggregate) between One and Ten Percent (1-10%) but could be as low as Zero Percent (0%) or as high as Fifteen Percent (15%) depending on market conditions. One Hundred Percent (100%) of the loan origination fees, exit fees, and lender discount points shall be payable to the Manager.

(a)                Purchase of Existing Loans. When the Company purchases an existing loan (or pool of loans) from a third party, the Manager or Affiliate will be paid a fee comparable to a loan origination fee.

(b)                Loan Servicing Fee. The Servicer may elect to charge a loan servicing fee of up to but not to exceed the following: One-Twelfth of One-Half of One Percent (1/12th of 0.5%) of the principal amount of each Fund loan, payable on a monthly basis (i.e., 0.5% per year). This fee shall be collected monthly from the payments received by the Company from the borrowers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the loan servicing fee may vary from loan to loan.

(c)                Loan Extension and Modification Fees payable by Borrower. Loan extension and modification fees are collected from borrowers by the Manager. Such fees are typically between One and Three Percent (1-3%) of the original loan amount, but could be higher or lower depending on market rates and conditions. Such fees shall be payable to the Manager.

(d)                Loan Processing, Loan Documentation, and other Similar Fees payable by Borrower.

(g)                Property Management Fee. The Manager shall be entitled to receive a monthly property management fee for managing properties acquired by the Fund through foreclosure or otherwise (“Property Management Fee”). The Property Management Fee shall generally be computed as a monthly flat fee or a specified numerical percentage (which percentage shall be set by the Manager on a case-by-case basis for each subject property) multiplied by monthly gross rents for the property. Generally, the Manager expects to receive a Property Management Fee of Five Percent (5%) of the monthly gross rents received per property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager reserves the right to retain a third-party property management company, in its sole and absolute discretion.

14

The Manager shall be entitled to reimbursement by the Fund (but only to the extent that Fund assets are sufficient therefor) for reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Manager on behalf of the Fund. Further, the Fund shall reimburse the Manager and its Affiliates for any reasonable formation, accounting, analyst, banking, transactional fees, and legal costs incurred in connection with the formation of the Fund and the capital raising activities undertaken by the Fund.

(j)                 The definition of Manager’s Fees includes all the fees described in “Compensation to Manager and Affiliates”.

5.8 Tenure.

(a)                Term. The Manager will serve until the earlier of (1) the Manager’s resignation;

(2)  the Manager’s removal; (3) as to a Manager who is a natural person, the Manager’s death or adjudication of incompetency; and (4) as to a Manager that is an Entity, the Manager’s dissolution. In any such event, Members representing a Majority of the Membership Interest outstanding shall promptly elect a successor as Manager; provided, however if the then Manager desires to appoint an Affiliate as the new Manager, then such Affiliate may become the Manager without Member approval.

(b)                Resignation. The Manager at any time may resign by written notice delivered to the Members at Thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the resignation. Members may elect a replacement Manager with a Majority vote, provided, however if the then Manager desires to appoint an Affiliate as the new Manager, then such Affiliate may become the Manager without Member approval.

(c)                Removal. The Members may remove the Manager if: (1) the Manager is convicted or found liable for an act of gross negligence or fraud which materially lowers the net asset value of the Company, and (2) the holders of at least a Majority of the outstanding Membership Interests vote in favor of such removal.

ARTICLE 7: DISSOLUTION

7.1               Events of Dissolution. The Company will continue until (a) dissolved herein pursuant to Article 7 below, unless sooner dissolved or terminated under the Act or as described herein; (b) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Company; (c) any event that makes the Company ineligible to conduct its activities as a limited liability company under the Act; or (d) otherwise by option of law.

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. The Company will not cease to exist immediately upon the occurrence of an event of dissolution, but will continue until its affairs have been wound up. Upon dissolution of the Company, the Manager will wind up the Company’s affairs by liquidating the Company's assets as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair market value thereof, either by sale to third parties or by collecting loan payments under the terms of the loan(s) until a suitable sale can be arranged. 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.

17

(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 or by collecting loan payments under the terms of the loans. Due to high prevailing interest rates or other factors, the Company could suffer reduced earnings (or losses) if a substantial portion of its loan portfolio remains and must be liquidated quickly during the winding up period. Members who sell their Membership Interests prior to any such liquidation will not be exposed to this risk. Conversely, if prevailing interest rates have declined at a time when the loan portfolio must be liquidated, unanticipated profits could be realized by those Members who remained in the Company until its termination.

(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. 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.

ARTICLE 8: GENERAL PROVISIONS

8.1               Amendments. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Manager or the Majority of Members may propose, for consideration and action, an amendment to this Agreement, and a proposed amendment will become effective at such time as it is approved by the Members holding a Majority of the outstanding Membership Interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager may amend this Agreement from time to time; provided, however, that any amendment that materially or adversely affects the rights of the Members to receive distributions, withdraw from the Company or their voting rights shall require the consent of the Manager and Majority of the Members.

(a)                Amendments to be Adopted solely by the Manager. The Manager may, without the approval of any Member, amend any provisions of this Agreement, and execute, deliver, file and/or record all necessary documents that may be required in connection therewith (and any such amendment shall not be deemed to affect the Members disproportionally, materially or adversely affect the rights of the Members), as follows:

18

(i)                 a change in the name of the Company, the location of the principal place of business of the Company, the registered agent of the Company or the registered office of the Company;

(ii)                 the admission, substitution, withdrawal or removal of Members in accordance with this Agreement;

(iii)             a change in the fiscal year or taxable year of the Company and any other changes that the Manager determines to be necessary or appropriate as a result of a change in the fiscal year or taxable year of the Company;

(iv) a change that, in the sole discretion of the Manager, it determines:

(i)   does not adversely affect the Members; (ii) to be necessary or appropriate to satisfy any requirements, conditions or guidelines contained in any opinion, directive, order, ruling or regulation of any federal or state agency or judicial authority or contained in any federal or state statute (including the Act), or (iii) is required to effect the intent expressed in any Offering document or the intent of the provisions of this Agreement or is otherwise contemplated by this Agreement; and

(v) The Manager shall have the authority to execute and file any amendment to the Articles required by the Act that it determines to be necessary or appropriate for the formation, continuation, qualification and operation of a limited liability company in the State of California or any other state in which the Company may elect to do business or own property. The Company shall not be required, before or after filing, to deliver or mail a copy of the Articles, any qualification document or any amendment thereto to any Member. If any such amendment results in inconsistencies between the Articles and this Agreement, this Agreement will be considered to have been amended in the specifics necessary to eliminate fine inconsistencies.

8.2               Power of Attorney. Each Member appoints the Manager, with full power of substitution, as the Member's attorney-in-fact, to act in the Member's name to execute and file (a) all certificates, applications, reports and other instruments necessary to qualify or maintain the Company as a limited liability company in the states and foreign countries where the Company conducts its activities, (b) all instruments that effect or confirm changes or modifications of the Company or its status, including, without limitation, amendments to the Articles, and (c) all instruments of transfer necessary to effect the Company's dissolution and termination. The power of attorney granted by this Article is irrevocable, coupled with an interest and shall survive the death of the Member.

8.3               Binding Arbitration. Either Member, Manager or the Company may, at its sole election, require that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for resolution of a Claim be final and binding arbitration pursuant to this section (this “Arbitration Provision”). The arbitration shall be conducted in the State of California in the Los Angeles area. As used in this Arbitration Provision, “Claim” shall include any past, present, or future claim, dispute, or controversy involving Member (or persons claiming through or connected with Member), on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, and/or the activities or relationships that involve, lead to, or result from any of the foregoing, including (except to the extent provided otherwise in the last sentence of sub-section (iv) below) the validity or enforceability of this Arbitration Provision, any part thereof, or the entire Agreement. Claims are subject to arbitration regardless of whether they arise from contract; tort (intentional or otherwise); a constitution, statute, common law, or principles of equity; or otherwise. Claims include (without limitation) matters arising as initial claims, counter-claims, cross-claims, third-party claims, or otherwise. This Arbitration Provision applies to claims under the U.S. federal securities laws and to all claims that that are related to the Company, including with respect to this offering, our holdings, the common shares, our ongoing operations and the management of our investments, among other matters. The scope of this Arbitration Provision is to be given the broadest possible interpretation that is enforceable.

19

(i)                 The party initiating arbitration shall do so with the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) or JAMS. The arbitration shall be conducted according to, and the location of the arbitration shall be determined in accordance with, the rules and policies of the administrator selected, except to the extent the rules conflict with this Arbitration Provision or any countervailing law. In the case of a conflict between the rules and policies of the administrator and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision shall control, subject to countervailing law, unless all parties to the arbitration consent to have the rules and policies of the administrator apply.

(ii)                  If the Company elects arbitration, the Company shall pay all the administrator’s filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees). If Member elects arbitration, filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees) shall be paid in accordance with the rules of the administrator selected, or in accordance with countervailing law if contrary to the administrator’s rules. The Company shall pay the administrator’s hearing fees for one full day of arbitration hearings. Fees for hearings that exceed one day will be paid by the party requesting the hearing, unless the administrator’s rules or applicable law require otherwise, or Member requests that the Company pay them and the Company agree to do so. Each party shall bear the expense of its own attorney’s fees, except as otherwise provided by law. If a statute gives Member the right to recover any of these fees, these statutory rights shall apply in the arbitration notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein.

(iii)             Within 30 days of a final award by the arbitrator, a party may appeal the award for reconsideration by a three-arbitrator panel selected according to the rules of the arbitrator administrator. In the event of such an appeal, an opposing party may cross-appeal within 30 days after notice of the appeal. The panel will reconsider de novo all aspects of the initial award that are appealed. Costs and conduct of any appeal shall be governed by this Arbitration Provision and the administrator’s rules, in the same way as the initial arbitration proceeding. Any award by the individual arbitrator that is not subject to appeal, and any panel award on appeal, shall be final and binding, except for any appeal right under the Federal Arbitration Act (the “FAA”), and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

The Company agrees not to invoke the Company’s right to arbitrate an individual Claim that a Member may bring in Small Claims Court or an equivalent court, if any, so long as the Claim is pending only in that court. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, NO ARBITRATION SHALL PROCEED ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS (INCLUDING AS PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ON BEHALF OF OTHERS), EVEN IF THE CLAIM OR CLAIMS THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE ARBITRATION HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN ASSERTED (OR COULD HAVE BEEN ASSERTED) IN A COURT AS CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTIONS IN A COURT.

8.4               Notices. Notices contemplated by this Agreement may be sent by any commercially reasonable means, including hand delivery, first class mail, facsimile, e-mail or private courier. The notice must be prepaid and addressed as set forth in the Company's records. The notice will be effective on the date of receipt or, in the case of notice sent by first class mail, the Fifth (5^th) day after mailing.

8.5               Resolution of Inconsistencies. If there are inconsistencies between this Agreement and the Certificate, the Certificate will control. If there are inconsistencies between this Agreement and the Act, this Agreement will control, except to the extent the inconsistencies relate to provisions of the Act that the Members cannot alter by agreement. If there are inconsistencies between this Agreement and the Offering Circular, this Agreement will control. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless the language or context clearly indicates a different intent, the provisions of this Agreement pertaining to the Company's governance and financial affairs and the rights of the Members upon Dissociation and dissolution will supersede the provisions of the Act relating to the same matters.

20

8.6               Provisions Applicable to Transferees. Each Member will execute and deliver any document or statement necessary to give effect to the terms of this Agreement or to comply with any law, rule or regulation governing the Company's formation and activities.

8.7               Additional Instruments. Each Member will execute and deliver any document or statement necessary to give effect to the terms of this Agreement or to comply with any law, rule or regulation governing the Company's formation and activities.

8.8               Computation of Time. In computing any period of time under this Agreement, the day of the act or event from which the specified period begins to run is not included. The last day of the period is included, unless it is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, in which case the period will run until the end of the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday. For purposes of this paragraph, a day shall be deemed to end at 5:00 p.m. in the time zone where the Company then maintains its principal place of business.

8.9               Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Certificate comprise the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the Company. This Agreement and the Certificate supersede any prior agreements or understandings with respect to the Company. No representation, statement or condition not contained in this Agreement or the Certificate has any force or effect.

8.10           Waiver. No right or remedy under this Agreement may be waived, except by an instrument in writing signed by the party sought to be charged with the waiver.

8.11           General Construction Principles. Words in any gender are deemed to include the other genders. The singular is deemed to include the plural and vice versa. The headings and underlined paragraph titles are for guidance only and have no significance in the interpretation of this Agreement.

8.12           Binding Effect. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement relating to the transferability of Membership Interests and the rights of Transferees, this Agreement is binding on and will inure to the benefit of the Company, the Members and their respective distributees, successors and assigns.

8.13           Governing Law. California law governs the construction and application of the terms of this Agreement.

8.14           Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then notwithstanding such invalidity, unenforceability or illegality, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

8.15           Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be considered an original as to the party signing it. Facsimile signatures shall have the same legal effect as original signatures.
