(iii)            Until final approval of a proposed Business Plan has been given, the subject Master Lessee shall be operated on the basis of the previous Fiscal Year’s approved Property Operating Budget, together with a 3% increase in expenditures under such budget until the end of the Fiscal Year for such proposed operating budget and capital expenditures budget, and a further 3% increase at the beginning of each successive Fiscal Year if such final approval has not then been given.

(iv)             Amendments to a Property’s approved Business Plan (other than variations in such Property’s Operating Budget set forth in clauses (vi) and (vii) in the definition of Major Decisions) shall require the approval of both Members.

(c)               Approved Operating Budgets and Business Plans. The Administrative Member is authorized to cause the Company, the Subsidiaries and the Properties to operate on the basis of the approved Company Operating Budget and Business Plans, together with such variations as are set forth in clauses (vi) and (vii) in the definition of Major Decisions. The Administrative Member shall promptly advise the Members of any event relating to the management and operation of a Property that does or could significantly affect, either adversely or favorably, such Property or cause a significant deviation from the approved annual Business Plan or Property Operating Budget for such Property.

5.5         Member, Tenure, and Qualifications of Administrative Member.

(a)               Generally. The Company shall have one Administrative Member. The initial Administrative Member shall be the Orion Member (in its capacity as the Administrative Member of the Company, the “Initial Administrative Member”). The Initial Administrative Member shall serve as Administrative Member of the Company until it resigns, it is removed for Cause pursuant to Section 5.5(c), or it suffers or incurs an Event of Dissociation (upon the occurrence of which, the Administrative Member will be deemed to have resigned). Any successor to the Initial Administrative Member shall hold office until its resignation, removal, dissolution and liquidation, or death, as applicable.

(b)               Resignation. The Administrative Member shall not be permitted to resign without the consent of the Investor Member.

(c)               Removal. The Investor Member may remove the Orion Member as the Administrative Member, but only for Cause, by delivering written notice of such removal (a “Removal Notice”) specifying the basis for such removal in reasonable detail. Any subsequent Administrative Member may be removed at any time by the prior written action of a Majority in Interest of the Members, with or without Cause. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as set forth in Section 5.5(c)((ix), Cause or a Cause Event shall not exist to the extent that the subject event is the result of Applicable Employee Misconduct which has been cured in the manner required in order to meet the definition of Excusable Employee Misconduct under this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 5.5(c), “Cause” or “Cause Event” means:

(i)                 A Bankruptcy with respect to the Administrative Member, unless the applicable petition is dismissed within one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of filing or a Bankruptcy relating to a Guarantor that results in an “event of default” under any Master Lease Documents after expiration of applicable notice and cure periods thereunder, and unless such “event of default” is otherwise cured or waived;

(ii)              The disposition (whether voluntary or by operation of law) by the Administrative Member of all or any part of the Administrative Member’s interest in the Company (or such Administrative Member’s right to receive distributions of Company property or assets) in breach of Article 12 hereof;

(iii)            The commission by the Administrative Member, Guarantor or Portfolio Manager, or any Affiliate or senior or key personnel thereof, of an act involving gross negligence, fraud, intentional misappropriation of Company assets, or willful misconduct in connection with the business of the Company or any Subsidiary or in connection with any Affiliated Contract;

(iv)             The voluntary withdrawal, retirement, or resignation of the Administrative Member from the Company in breach of Section 13.1(d) hereof;

(v)               As to any Administrative Member that is a corporation, general or limited partnership, limited liability company or trust, the liquidation or dissolution of such Entity, except in connection with a reorganization in which there is a surviving Entity;

(vi)            The engagement by the Administrative Member in any of the activities described in Section 5.2 without the approval of the Investor Member, provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 5.5(c)(vi), clause (a) of the definition of Excusable Employee Misconduct shall not apply to any determination of whether Excusable Employee Misconduct has occurred, and the removal of the employee(s) responsible for the Applicable Employee Misconduct from further work with respect to the Company, any Subsidiary, and all Properties, as described in clause (b) of the definition of Excusable Employee Misconduct, shall not be required;

(vii)         An Administrative Member Financing Default;

(viii)        A “Going Concern” disclosure is made by the auditors of either the Administrative Member, Orion REIT, or Orion REIT LP;

(ix)           A Management Change, if within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Management Change the Orion Member fails to replace such Orion Member Key Persons with one or more individuals reasonably acceptable to the Investor Member (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed); or

(x)             A Breach by the Administrative Member (including, without limitation, a Breach resulting from a failure by the Administrative Member to carry out its duties under this Agreement in substantial accordance with the Standard of Care), provided, however, a Cause or Cause Event pursuant to this Section 5.5(c)(ix) shall not be curable by Excusable Employee Misconduct, but otherwise shall have the benefit of the cure rights provided for in the definition of Breach.

(d)               Right of Contest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in Section 5.5(c), the Orion Member may dispute the Investor Member’s claim of the existence of a Cause Event pursuant to Section 5.5(c)(ii), (iii), (vi), (vii) or (ix) by delivering a notice to the Investor Member (a “Notice of Contest”) within ten (10) Business Days after the Orion Member’s receipt of the Investor Member’s Removal Notice. If the Orion Member fails to provide a Notice of Contest within such ten (10) Business Day Period, then the Orion Member shall have no right to dispute the effectiveness of the Removal Notice, which shall be conclusive. If a Notice of Contest is given within the period set forth above, then (i) the dispute shall be resolved by arbitration as provided in Exhibit G to this Agreement, and (ii) if the arbitrator upholds the grounds for termination under Section 5.5(c) (i.e., determines that a Cause Event has occurred), then the Removal Notice shall be conclusive and effective as of the date delivered, and not subject to further challenge, and (iii) if the arbitrator determines that there are no grounds for removal under Section 5.5(c) (i.e. that no Cause Event has occurred), then the Removal Notice shall be voided and of no further force or effect. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, even in the event Orion Member delivers a Notice of Contest to Investor Member, the applicable Removal Notice shall be effective on the date delivered to Orion Member and Investor Member shall be permitted to exercise all remedies set forth in Section 5.6 below pending resolution of any such arbitration, other than the remedy set forth in Section 5.6(d), which shall be suspended pending resolution of such arbitration; provided, however, the Investor Member shall indemnify the Orion Member and the Company for all Losses (as defined in Section 5.9(a) below) incurred by the Orion Member and the Company as a result of the Investor Member’s exercise of any such remedies in the event that the arbitrator determines that there are no grounds for removal (i.e. that no Cause Event has occurred).

(e)               Exit Cooperation. If the Administrative Member resigns or is removed for Cause, then the exiting Administrative Member shall cooperate in good faith, and with commercially reasonable diligence, with the Company, its Members and any replacement Administrative Member, for the purpose of facilitating an orderly transition of the Administrative Member’s duties and responsibilities, including the transfer of books and records and control of bank accounts of the Company and the Subsidiaries, all in accordance with good property management practices.

(f)                Vacancies. If the position of Administrative Member shall at any time be vacant, then subject to the terms of Section 5.6(a) below, a new Administrative Member shall be appointed by a Majority in Interest of the Members. An Administrative Member need not be a resident of the State of Delaware.

5.6         Remedies for Removal of Orion Member.

(a)               Appointment of New Administrative Member. In the event the Orion Member is removed as the Administrative Member for Cause, the Investor Member shall appoint a new Administrative Member (which may be the Investor Member or an Affiliate of the Investor Member) within ninety (90) days of the date on which the Administrative Member shall have been so removed; provided, however, if the Administrative Member contests its removal pursuant to Section 5.5(d) above, any new Administrative Member appointed by the Investor Member shall be either the Investor Member of an Affiliate of the Investor Member pending resolution of such contest. Notwithstanding such removal, the Orion Member shall remain liable for all accrued liabilities, duties and obligations incurred as Administrative Member arising prior to its removal.

(b)               Loss of Promote Distributions. If the Orion Member is removed as the Administrative Member for Cause, any rights that the Orion Member had to the promote distributions under Sections 9.1(c), 9.2(a)(v) and 9.2(b)(iii) (the “Promote Clauses”) shall terminate effective immediately, and all distributions under such Sections shall thereafter be made in accordance with each Member’s respective Ownership Percentage. However, if a Notice of Contest is delivered by the Orion Member under Section 5.5(d), then all distributions under the Promote Clauses shall be held in an escrow until resolution of the Orion Member’s contest of the Cause Event. If the arbitrator upholds the grounds for the Removal Notice, then such escrowed amounts shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of the first sentence of this subsection (b) as of the date of removal, and if the arbitrator determines that there are no grounds for removal (i.e., that no Cause Event has occurred), then the distributions under the Promote Clauses then held in escrow shall be distributed to Orion Member, together with interest thereon, payable by the Company, at the rate of 10% per annum.

(c)               Termination of Portfolio Management Agreement. If the Orion Member is removed as the Administrative Member for Cause, the Portfolio Management Agreement shall terminate and the Portfolio Manager shall not be entitled to any further payments of any fees set forth in the Portfolio Management Agreement and any deferred amounts of such fees shall be forfeited. However, if a Notice of Contest is delivered by the Orion Member under Section 5.5(d), then all fees due to Portfolio Manager under the Portfolio Management Agreement shall be held in an escrow until resolution of the Orion Member’s contest of the Cause Event. If the arbitrator upholds the grounds for the Removal Notice, then such escrowed amounts shall be forfeited in accordance with the provisions of the first sentence of this subsection (c) as of the date of removal, and if the arbitrator determines that there are no grounds for removal (i.e., that no Cause Event has occurred), then the fees due to Portfolio Manager under the Portfolio Management Agreement then held in escrow shall be distributed to Orion Member, together with interest thereon, payable by the Company, at the rate of 10% per annum.

(d)               Remedies at Law and Equity. If the Orion Member is removed as the Administrative Member for Cause, the Investor Member shall have the right, at its election, and on behalf of itself and/or the Company, to pursue any and all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity, in addition to the remedies expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(e)              Bank Account Authority. Without limiting the Investor Member’s rights under this Section 5.6, upon a removal of the Administrative Member for Cause, the Investor Member shall have the option, at its sole election, to become the sole signatory on all bank accounts, documents, and instruments of the Company and any Subsidiaries. The Members shall provide that the bank accounts of the Company and all Subsidiaries are arranged so as to permit the Investor Member to become the sole signatory on all such bank accounts upon the Investor Member certifying to the bank holding such accounts that the Administrative Member has been removed for Cause. However, if a Notice of Contest is delivered by the Orion Member under Section 5.5(d), and if the arbitrator determines that there are no grounds for removal (i.e. that no Cause Event has occurred), then signature authority on the bank accounts of the Company and all Subsidiaries shall revert to the Orion Member upon the Orion Member certifying to the bank holding such accounts that the Orion Member has been restored as the Administrative Member.

(f)                Release of Guarantor. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Orion Member is removed as the Administrative Member for Cause, the Investor Member shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Guarantor to be released from its obligations under all Guarantees. In the event that the Investor Member fails to cause a Guarantor to be released simultaneously with any such removal, then the Investor Member shall cause a creditworthy Affiliate or other related party acceptable to the Orion Member in its reasonable discretion, to indemnify, defend and hold such Guarantor harmless from and against any and all losses and liabilities arising under any such Guarantee from and after the date of any such removal, and the Investor Member shall not take any action that would increase or modify the liability and obligations of such Guarantor under such Guarantee. Any and all losses and liabilities arising under any such Guarantee of a Guarantor attributable to events or occurrences prior to such removal, shall continue to be governed by the terms of Section 8.6 below, including any losses and liabilities of such Guarantor under its Guarantee relating to any Administrative Member Financing Default occurring prior to such removal. The Investor Member acknowledges that each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary of the indemnification obligations of the Investor Member under this Section 5.6(f).

5.7          Liability for Certain Acts. The Administrative Member shall not be liable for any of the debts or obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary, and has not guaranteed nor shall have any obligation with respect to the return of a Member’s Capital Contributions or profits from the operation of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Delaware Act, the Administrative Member shall not be liable to the Company, to any Subsidiary, or to any Member for any loss or damage sustained by the Company, any Subsidiary, or any Member except loss or damage resulting from any action constituting “Cause” under Section 5.5(c), or from a transaction for which such Administrative Member (solely in its capacity as such, and not merely as a Member) received a personal benefit in violation or breach of the material provisions of this Agreement. In the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Administrative Member shall be entitled to rely on information, opinions, reports, or statements, including but not limited to financial statements or other financial data prepared or presented by: (a) any one or more Members, Officers, employees, and other agents of the Company whom the Administrative Member reasonably believes to be reliable and competent in the matter presented, or (b) legal counsel, public accountants, or other Persons as to matters the Administrative Member reasonably believes are within the Person’s professional or expert competence.

5.8          No Exclusive Duty to Company. The respective Affiliates of the Members may have other business interests and, subject to Article 7, may engage in other activities in addition to those relating to the Company, even if such other business interests or activities are competitive with the Business or the Subsidiaries’ Business. Subject to the terms of Article 7, neither the Company nor any Member shall have any right, by virtue of this Agreement, to share or participate in such other investments or activities of the respective Affiliates of a Member or to the income or proceeds derived therefrom. Subject to the terms of Article 7, no Member, Administrative Member or any of their Affiliates shall incur any liability to the Company, any Subsidiary, or any of the Members as a result of engaging in any other business or ventures.

5.9          Indemnification.

(a)               Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements approved by the Administrative Member (if Indemnitee is not the Administrative Member) and other amounts (collectively, “Losses”) arising from or in connection with any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings (civil, criminal, administrative or investigative) incurred by the Indemnitee and relating to the Company or its operations (including by reason of the fact that such Indemnitee is or was acting in connection with the activities of the Company in any capacity or that is or was serving at the request of the Administrative Member as an officer, director, or employee of the Company or any Subsidiary) in which any such Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, but only if: (1) with respect to the Administrative Member and its related Indemnitees, the Losses in question were not the result of a Breach of this Agreement by the Administrative Member and did not otherwise result from a Cause Event or a breach of any Affiliated Contact by an Indemnitee related to the Administrative Member, or (2) as to each other Indemnitee, such Indemnitee (i) is not guilty of fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or (ii) the Losses in question did not result from a Breach of this Agreement by the Member associated with such Indemnitee; provided, that the Company’s indemnification obligations in connection with any Guarantee provided by an Affiliate of a Member are subject to the terms of Section 8.6(b). Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.9(a) shall be made only out of the assets of the Company and any insurance proceeds from any liability policy covering the Company or the Administrative Member, and without any obligation to call for Additional Capital Contributions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnitee in connection with any claim, lawsuit or other proceeding that has been brought against such Indemnitee by a Member, and (ii) the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnitee in connection with any claim, lawsuit or other proceeding in connection with a dispute or disputes between or among the Administrative Member and its owners and/or its Affiliates.

(b)               Indemnification by the Members. Each Member shall indemnify the Company, the other Members and the Affiliates of the other Members from and against any and all Losses arising from or in connection with any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings (civil, criminal, administrative or investigative) arising out of or relating to (i) in the case of the Orion Member or any of its Affiliates, a Cause Event (including, without limitation, a Breach of this Agreement), a breach of any Affiliated Contract by an Affiliate of the Administrative Member (subject to any notice and cure rights contained therein), or fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or a knowing violation of law by an Indemnitee related to Orion Member, and (ii) in the case of Investor Member, fraud, willful misconduct, knowing violation of law, or other Breach in the performance of this Agreement.

(c)               Actual Damages. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, a Member’s liability hereunder shall be limited to actual costs, liabilities and damages (including any punitive damages imposed by third party claims), and in no event shall any Member have any liability under this Agreement (including under this Section 5.9) for, and each Member waives its rights to claim, demand, and collect any, exemplary, special, consequential, incidental, indirect or punitive damages, lost profits or similar items (in each case, except for any indirect or punitive damages imposed by third party claims).

(d)               No Limitation of Rights; Liability of Members. The indemnifications provided by this Section 5.9 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee or any other Person may be entitled under any agreement as a matter of law or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity unless otherwise provided in a written agreement pursuant to which such Indemnitee is indemnified. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any claim against a Member by the Company, by another Member, or by an Affiliate of another Member under or in connection with this Agreement (including under this Section 5.9) shall be made only against, and shall be limited to, such Member’s interest in the Company, the distributions received by such Member from the Company, the proceeds of the sale by such Member of its interest in the Company or such Member’s interest in any property of the Company distributed to the Members pursuant to Section 13.3 below, and any right of the Company or a Member to proceed against (i) any other assets of a Member, or (ii) any direct or indirect owner or manager of such Member, or any of their respective assets, as a result of such a claim against such Member arising under this Agreement or otherwise, is hereby waived.

(e)               Insurance. To the extent contemplated in the Approved Budget, the Company may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of the Indemnitees and such other Persons as the Administrative Member shall determine against any liability that may be asserted against or expenses that may be incurred by such Person in connection with the Company’s activities, regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions hereof; provided, that if the Company shall purchase and maintain insurance for acts or omissions that are not subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 5.9(a) hereof, the Company shall be responsible for all costs of such insurance. If any Indemnitee recovers any amounts from such insurance coverage or any third party source, then such Indemnitee shall, to the extent such recovery is duplicative, reimburse the Company for any amounts previously paid to it by the Company in respect of such liabilities.

(f)               Benefit. The provisions of this Section 5.9 are solely for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons.

(g)               Contests. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Section 5.9, any Member may claim or dispute the existence of a Cause Event, fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, a knowing violation of law, or other Breach of this Agreement in connection with any claim for indemnification under this Section 5.9, in which case such dispute shall be resolved by arbitration as provided in Exhibit G to this Agreement. Pending resolution of any such arbitration, the indemnification provisions under this Section 5.9 shall be suspended.

5.10          Standard of Care. The Administrative Member and each of its Affiliates performing services in connection with the business of the Company shall carry out its duties under this Agreement with the Standard of Care. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, neither the Administrative Member nor any Indemnitee associated with the Administrative Member shall be liable for monetary damages to the Company or any Members for Losses sustained, liabilities incurred or benefits not derived as a result of errors in judgment or mistakes of fact or law or of any act or omission (including any negligent act or omissions) except as provided in Section 5.9(b).

5.11          Authority of Agents. Unless authorized to do so by the Administrative Member, no attorney-in-fact, employee (if any), or other agent of the Company shall have any power or authority to bind the Company or any Subsidiary in any way, to pledge its credit or to expose the Company to pecuniary liability for any purpose. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member (in its capacity as a Member) shall have any power or authority to bind the Company or any Subsidiary.

5.12          Officers. The Administrative Member may, but shall not be required to, create such officers of the Company as it deems appropriate, including, but not limited to, President, Executive Vice President, Senior Vice President(s), Vice President(s), Secretary, and Treasurer. The Officers shall have such duties and authority as are assigned or delegated to them by the Administrative Member from time to time. All Officers shall serve at the pleasure of the Administrative Member, and the Administrative Member may remove any Officer from office without cause. Any Officer may resign at any time.

5.13          Affiliated Contracts.

(a)               The Members hereby approve and authorize the Administrative Member to cause the Company to enter into a property and asset management agreement with the Portfolio Manager in the form of the Portfolio Management Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit C. Except for the foregoing, the Administrative Member shall not cause the Company or any Subsidiary to enter into any Affiliated Contract without the prior written consent of the Members. The Orion Member will cause the Portfolio Manager and any other Affiliate under an Affiliate Contract to provide services and carry out obligations consistent with the Standard of Care.

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.1, if the Investor Member determines, in its sole discretion, that an Affiliated Contract with the Orion Member or an Affiliate of the Orion Member has been breached by the Orion Member or such Affiliate, then the Investor Member may, on behalf of the Company or a Subsidiary, provide written notice to the Administrative Member of such determination and thereafter cause the Company or the Subsidiary, as applicable, to take such action as may be reasonably necessary to enforce such Affiliated Contract in accordance with the terms of such Affiliated Contract. In addition, the Investor Member may, on behalf of the Company or a Subsidiary, exercise any right of termination expressly set forth in an Affiliated Contract with the Orion Member or an Affiliate of the Orion Member, subject to any grace or cure periods set forth therein. The Investor Member shall have the authority to sign documents on behalf of the Company and/or a Subsidiary, and to issue notices on behalf of the Company and/or a Subsidiary, in order to carry out such enforcement or termination and shall provide the Administrative Member contemporaneous notice of all such actions by the Investor Member on behalf of the Company or a Subsidiary.

(c)               If the Orion Member determines, in its sole discretion, that an Affiliated Contract with the Investor Member or an Affiliate of the Investor Member has been breached by that Member or Affiliate, then the Orion Member may, on behalf of the Company or a Subsidiary, provide written notice to the Investor Member of such determination and thereafter cause the Company or the Subsidiary, as applicable, to take such action as may be reasonably necessary to enforce such Affiliated Contract in accordance with the terms of such Affiliated Contract. In addition, the Orion Member may, on behalf of the Company or a Subsidiary, exercise any right of termination expressly set forth in an Affiliated Contract with the Investor Member or an Affiliate of the Investor Member, subject to any grace or cure periods set forth therein. The Orion Member shall have the authority to sign documents on behalf of the Company and/or a Subsidiary, and to issue notices on behalf of the Company and/or a Subsidiary, in order to carry out such enforcement or termination and shall provide the Investor Member contemporaneous notice of all such actions by the Orion Member on behalf of the Company or a Subsidiary.

(d)               If the Administrative Member is removed for Cause as set forth in Section 5.5(c), the Company and each Subsidiary may terminate all Affiliated Contracts with the Administrative Member or its Affiliates, which such right may be exercised by the Member not Affiliated with the Administrative Member on behalf of the Company and each Subsidiary, as applicable.

(e)               No Affiliate of the Administrative Member contracting with the Company or any Subsidiary may rely upon any action of the Administrative Member as binding upon the Company to the extent any such action violates the terms of this Agreement.

(f)                Each Affiliate Contract shall contain the provisions set forth in Exhibit F attached hereto or comparable provisions approved by each of the Members.

(g)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Investor Member shall have the right, without the consent of the Orion Member, to enforce, on behalf of the Company and its Affiliates, the terms of the ROFO and the Portfolio Management Agreement.

(h)               For purposes of clarification and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 3.5 of the Portfolio Management Agreement, the Portfolio Manager may enter into contracts, agreements, or other arrangements with Submanagers (as defined in the Portfolio Management Agreement) without the consent of the Investor Member.

(i)                Orion Member acknowledges and agrees that effective no later than one (1) day after the Effective Date, the Orion Member Key Persons will be the executives of the Orion Member, Orion REIT LP, and/or Orion REIT with primary responsibility for the business decisions of the Orion Member in connection with the Properties. In the event of (a) the foregoing appointments failing to take place on or before (1) day after the Effective Date, or (b) changes in the Orion Member Key Persons which result in none of such Orion Member Key Persons continuing to be employees of Orion REIT (each, a “Management Change”), and if within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Management Change the Orion Member fails to replace such Orion Member Key Persons with one or more individuals reasonably acceptable to the Investor Member (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), then the Investor Member may at its option on behalf of the Company, terminate the Portfolio Management Agreement and replace the Portfolio Manager with a new asset and property management company acceptable to the Investor Member in its sole, but reasonable discretion.

5.14          Fees to Members and Affiliates. Except as specifically provided for in this Section 5.14 or set forth in an Affiliated Contract, no Member, nor any Affiliate of any Member, shall receive any compensation from the Company or any Subsidiary for its services to the Company or any Subsidiary, without prior written consent of all Members. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Members hereby consent and agree to the payment of the following fees:

(a)               Property Management Fee. Pursuant to the Portfolio Management Agreement, the Portfolio Manager shall be entitled to receive a property management fee for each Property in an amount that is equal to the greater of (i) 1% of gross receipts from such Property, or (ii) the amount of the property management fees that are reimbursable by tenants of such Property under their respective Leases. The Portfolio Manager shall be solely responsible for the payment of any fees negotiated with and owed to any sub-property managers.

(b)               Asset Management Fee. Pursuant to the Portfolio Management Agreement, the Portfolio Manager shall be entitled to receive an annual asset management fee with respect to each Property equal to 0.5% of the Equity Investment Amount attributable to such Property during the applicable calendar year, adjusted as necessary to reflect increases or decreases in such Equity Investment Amount during the course of the applicable calendar year.

(c)               Additional Property Acquisition Fee. With respect to the acquisition of each Additional Property in accordance with Article 7, an acquisition fee equal to 0.6% of the purchase price of such Additional Property shall be payable to the Orion Member (or its designated Affiliate).

(d)               Reimbursement. The Orion Member shall, or shall cause an affiliate of the Orion Member to, reimburse the Investor Member and the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred by the Investor Member or the Company, as applicable, in connection with the review and approval by the Investor Member or the Company, as applicable, of this Agreement, the Merger, or the Assignment, and any and all other documents or matters related to the foregoing, including, but not limited to, the Portfolio Management Agreement, ROFO, Warrant and any amendments to the Master Lease Documents or other documents related thereto.

5.15          REIT Status. The Members recognize that the Orion Member is indirectly owned by the Orion REIT, that the Orion REIT qualifies or will qualify as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) for federal income tax purposes and that the Orion Member must comply with a number of restrictions under the Code so that the Orion REIT may maintain its REIT status. In furtherance thereof, the Members agree that neither the Orion Member nor any other Administrative Member shall cause or allow the Company or any Subsidiary to take any action that would cause any of the income derived by the Company or such Subsidiary to fail to qualify as “Rents From Real Property” (as defined in Section 856(d) of the Code) or to take any other action that would cause the Orion REIT to fail to qualify as a REIT or to be subject to federal income tax under Sections 857 or 4981 of the Code, and that the Investor Member shall not prevent the Orion Member from causing the Company and the Subsidiaries to comply with the restrictions required under the Code in order for the Orion REIT to maintain its REIT status. In the event that the Investor Member removes the Orion Member in accordance with Section 5.5 and it or its Affiliate becomes the Administrative Member pursuant to Section 5.6, the Investor Member shall only be in violation of this Section 5.15 if (i) it operates the Properties differently, or changes the policies related thereto, from how the Properties were operated in the ordinary course of business prior to the removal of the Orion Member, and (ii) the change in operation or policy results in Orion REIT failing to qualify as a REIT, but in no event shall Investor Member be responsible for the actions of the Orion Member prior to removal that result in the failure of Orion REIT failing to qualify as a REIT. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, without the prior written consent of the Orion Member, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall:

(a)               Perform or provide any services to tenants of the Properties that would cause the Company or any Subsidiary to derive income that does not qualify as Rents From Real Property if the Company were taxed as a REIT. Instead, any such services must be provided by a “Taxable REIT Subsidiary” (as defined in Section 856(l)) of the Orion REIT, or by an “independent contractor” (as defined in Section 856(d) of the Code) from whom neither the Company nor the Orion REIT derives any income, directly or indirectly.

(b)               Derive any income from a Net Profit Lease or any lease that would cause the Company or any Subsidiary to receive payments that do not qualify as Rents From Real Property if the Company were taxed as a REIT.

(c)               Acquire any assets that would not qualify as “real estate assets” under Section 856(c)(5)(B) of the Code or cause any assets already acquired by the Company to not qualify as “real estate assets” under Section 856(c)(5)(B).

The provisions of this Agreement regarding the Company’s acquisition of Additional Properties are set forth in Exhibit D attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof.

ARTICLE 8

8.2            OAP Holdings LLC Initial Capital Contributions. On or prior to the date hereof, the Investor Member made such initial Capital Contributions to the Company as set forth in the Company’s books and records.

8.3           Additional Property Acquisition Contributions. The Orion Member and the Investor Member hereby agree to make additional cash contributions to the capital of the Company, in accordance with their respective Ownership Percentages, in connection with the (i) acquisition of Additional Properties at such times and in such amounts as are specified in the Final Acquisition Proposals for any such Additional Properties (such contributions, the “Additional Property Acquisition Contributions”), including, but not limited to, Additional Properties that may be acquired by the Company in connection with the ROFO.

8.4             Additional Capital Contributions.

(a)               If, at any time and from time to time, (i) the Company or any Subsidiary requires Necessary Funds, or (ii) the Members jointly agree to make additional capital contributions for any other purpose, then the Members shall make additional contributions to the capital of the Company (herein collectively referred to as “Additional Capital Contributions”) on the terms set forth in this Section 8.4.

(b)              If the Administrative Member determines, in its reasonable discretion, that the Company or any Subsidiary requires Necessary Funds, or if the Members jointly agree to make additional capital contributions for any other reason, then the Administrative Member shall give written notice to the Members (a “Capital Contribution Notice”) setting forth:

(i)             the amount of additional capital required by the Company or otherwise agreed to be funded by the Members,

(ii)           in the case of Necessary Funds, the specific purpose for which such additional capital is required, and

(iii)          a contribution date by which the Members shall be required to make any such Additional Capital Contributions (which shall not be less than twenty (20) days following the date of the Capital Contribution Notice).

(c)               Each Member shall contribute its pro rata share of any Additional Capital Contributions based upon the Ownership Percentages of the Members; provided, however, that if any Additional Capital Contribution is made pursuant to Section 8.4 at a time when distributions have previously been made to Orion Member pursuant to Section 9.1(c), Section 9.2(a)(v), or Section 9.2(b)(iii), then, such Additional Capital Contribution shall be made in accordance with the Members’ respective proportionate shares of the distributions made under Section 9.1(c), Section 9.2(a)(v), and Section 9.2(b)(iii) in reverse order and to the extent of the distributions made, and thereafter in accordance with Ownership Percentages. The remedies set forth in Section 8.5 constitute the sole and exclusive remedies if a Member does not timely make the full amount of its Additional Capital Contribution following receipt of a Capital Contribution Notice.

8.5            Failure to Contribute.

(a)               If any Member (the “Non-Contributing Member”) fails to make an Additional Property Acquisition Contribution or an Additional Capital Contribution within the specified time as provided in a Final Acquisition Proposal or a Capital Contribution Notice (in either case, a “Deficiency”), then the other Member (i.e., the Member other than the Non-Contributing Member) (the “Contributing Member”) may, in its sole and absolute discretion within thirty (30) days after the date the Deficiency was required to be contributed, elect to either (i) withdraw its share of such Additional Property Acquisition Contribution or Additional Capital Contribution, as the case may be, in which event the applicable Final Acquisition Proposal or Capital Contribution Notice shall be deemed cancelled and the Contributing Member’s contribution shall be refunded to it, or (ii) pursuant to Section 8.5(b) below, lend to the Company the entire amount of such Additional Property Acquisition Contribution or Additional Capital Contribution (the “Member Loan Option”). If the Contributing Member elects to exercise the Member Loan Option, then the amount previously advanced by the Contributing Member to the Company shall be treated as a portion of the Member Loan described in Section 8.5(b) below. If the Contributing Member fails, within such thirty (30) day period, to withdraw its portion of the Additional Property Acquisition Contribution or Additional Capital Contribution or fund the Deficiency to the Company in exercise of the Member Loan Option, then the Contributing Member shall be deemed to have elected to proceed under clause (i) above and the Company shall promptly return to the Contributing Member its share of such Additional Property Acquisition Contribution or Additional Capital Contribution, as applicable. In addition, in the event the Contributing Member elects to withdraw its portion of an Additional Property Acquisition Contribution with the result that the proposed acquisition of a Target Property is terminated, the Non-Contributing Member shall promptly pay or reimburse all Pursuit Costs and any forfeited earnest money incurred by the Company or the Contributing Member in connection with the proposed acquisition and subsequent failure to acquire such Target Property, and shall not be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for any such costs to the extent incurred by such Non-Contributing Member. Until such time as such amounts have been paid in full by the Non-Contributing Member all distributions pursuant to this Agreement that would otherwise be paid to the Non-Contributing Member shall instead be paid to the Company or the Contributing Member, as applicable, in payment of such obligation on behalf of the Non-Contributing Member.

(b)               Member Loan Option. If the Contributing Member elects to exercise the Member Loan Option, then the Contributing Member shall advance to the Company the full amount of the applicable Additional Property Acquisition Contribution or Additional Capital Contribution, which advance shall constitute the principal amount of, and shall be, a non-recourse debt (as provided below) of the Company to such Contributing Member (a “Member Loan”). Such Member Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal balance thereof from the date on which the Contributing Member makes such Member Loan until such debt and all interest accrued thereon have been paid in full at the interest rate of 10% per annum (but not more than the maximum amount allowable under applicable law). For the sake of clarity, the Member Loan shall constitute a non-recourse obligation of the Company and the Contributing Member shall only be entitled to require any such debt to be paid out of distributions of Distributable Cash from Operations, Distributable Cash from Capital Transactions, and distributions pursuant to Section 13.3(b) of this Agreement.

8.6            Guarantee of Master Lease Financing.

(a)               The Orion Member shall execute and deliver, or cause one or more of its Affiliates to execute and deliver, any guarantees or indemnities required by the terms of any Master Lease Financing obtained by the Company or any Subsidiary, provided that such Master Lease Financing has been approved by the Orion Member. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Orion Member has previously consented to be the replacement Guarantor in connection with the Properties owned, directly or indirectly by the Company as of the Effective Date.

(b)               Notwithstanding such guarantees and indemnities provided by the Orion Member or its Affiliates (each such guaranteeing party being hereinafter referred to as a “Guarantor”, and each such guarantee or indemnity being hereinafter referred to as a “Guarantee”), the Company shall be primarily obligated for all liabilities evidenced by any such Guarantee and all of the assets of the Company shall be utilized to satisfy such obligations and liabilities before the Orion Member or Guarantor is required to make any payment pursuant to any such Guarantee. The Company shall indemnify and defend each Guarantor, on demand, from and against all claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) suffered or incurred by such Guarantor by reason of, or in connection with (either directly or indirectly), any such Guarantee. In the event that the Company does not have sufficient assets to satisfy such obligations and liabilities or to indemnify each Guarantor with respect thereto, the amount required to pay such obligations and liabilities or to indemnify each Guarantor shall be considered Necessary Funds and the provisions of Sections 8.4 and 8.5 shall be applicable.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company or any Member have any obligation to fund, defend, indemnify or hold harmless any Guarantor on account of liability arising under any Guarantee as a result of any Cause Event by the Orion Member, any breach of any Affiliated Contract with an Affiliate of the Orion Member by such Affiliate of the Orion Member, or the fraud, willful misconduct, or negligence of such Guarantor or any of its Affiliates. Additionally, in the event the fraud, willful misconduct, or negligence of a Member or an Affiliate of a Member causes the breach of a non-recourse carve-out contained in a Guarantee or any of the other Master Lease Documents, resulting in the Company or any other Member incurring liability pursuant to any such Guarantee or pursuant to the Master Lease Documents, the responsible Member shall be obligated to reimburse the Company and/or such other Member (without indemnification by the Company or any Member) for any and all liabilities or expenses incurred by the Company or such other Member as a result of such action by the responsible Member.

8.7            Limit on Contributions and Obligations of Members. Except as expressly provided in this Article 8, the Members shall have no obligation or liability to the Subsidiaries, the Company or to the other Members (a) to make any contributions to the capital of the Company, (b) to guarantee any loans to the Subsidiary or the Company, or (c) to make any loans to any Subsidiary or the Company.

8.8            Return of Capital Contributions. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, no Member shall be entitled to demand or receive the return of its Capital Contributions. Upon dissolution and liquidation of the Company, the Members shall look solely to the Company’s assets for the return of their Capital Contributions, and no Member shall be liable for such return, even if such Company assets are insufficient to return the full amount of such Capital Contributions.

8.9            Interest on Capital. No interest shall be payable on any Capital Contribution made to the Company or on the balance in any Member’s Capital Account.

8.10          Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Sections 5.6(f) and 8.6(b), neither this Article 8, nor any other provision of this Agreement, shall be construed to create any rights or benefits in any Person, other than the Members or any Officers, and, subject to the limitations on Transfer contained herein, their respective legal representatives, transferees, successors, and assigns. Without limiting the foregoing, the right of the Administrative Member to require any Additional Capital Contributions under the terms of this Agreement and the agreement of the Members to make Additional Capital Contributions shall not be construed as conferring any rights or benefits to or upon any Person not a party to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any licensee, invitee, or tenant of any part of any Property, or the holder of any obligations secured by a mortgage, or other lien or encumbrance upon or affecting a Subsidiary, the Company or any interest of a Member therein or in a Property or any part thereof or any interest therein.

ARTICLE 9

9.1            Distributions of Distributable Cash from Operations. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.8 below, the Administrative Member shall cause the Company to distribute, on at least a quarterly basis, Distributable Cash from Operations to the Members in the following order of priority:

(a)               First, to the Members to the extent of, and in proportion to, any outstanding Member Loans, with all payments first applying to accrued and unpaid interest and then to principal, until such Member Loans have been paid in full;

(b)               Thereafter to the Members in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages until there shall have been distributed to the Members aggregate amounts necessary to cause the Investor Member to have achieved a cumulative IRR of twelve percent (12%) on its aggregate Capital Contributions with respect to all of the Properties, inclusive of amounts previously paid under this Section 9.1(b), Section 9.1(c), Section 9.2(a)(ii)(iv), and (v), and Section 9.2(b)(ii) and (iii);

(c)               Thereafter, but subject to Section 9.4, to the Members as follows:

9.2            Distribution of Distributable Cash from Capital Transactions. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.8 below, the Administrative Member shall cause the Company to distribute to the Members, as soon as practicable following a Capital Transaction, Distributable Cash from Capital Transactions in the following order of priority:

(a)               In the case of a Capital Transaction with respect to an Initial Property:

(i)            First, to the Members to the extent of, and in proportion to, any Member Loans made with respect to such Initial Property, with all payments first applying to accrued and unpaid interest and then to principal, until such Member Loans have been paid in full;

(ii)           Second, to the Investor Member until the Investor Member’s Initial Contribution Account with respect to such Property has been reduced to zero;

(iii)          Third, to the Orion Member, until the Orion Member’s Initial Contribution Account with respect to such Property has been reduced to zero;

(iv)          Fourth, to the Members in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages until there shall have been distributed to the Members aggregate amounts necessary to cause the Investor Member to have achieved a cumulative IRR of twelve percent (12%) on its aggregate Capital Contributions with respect to all of the Properties, inclusive of any amounts previously paid under Sections 9.1(b) and 9.1(c) above, under subsections (ii), (iv), and (v) of this Section 9.2(a), and under Section 9.2(b)(ii) and (iii) below; and then

(v)          Thereafter, but subject to Section 9.4, to the Members as follows:

(b)               In the case of a Capital Transaction with respect to any Additional Property:

(i)            First, to the Members to the extent of, and in proportion to, any Member Loans made with respect to any Property, with all payments first applying to accrued and unpaid interest and then to principal, until such Member Loans have been paid in full;

(ii)           Second, to the Members in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages until there shall have been distributed to the Members aggregate amounts necessary to cause the Investor Member to have achieved a cumulative IRR of twelve percent (12%) on its aggregate Capital Contributions with respect to all of the Properties, inclusive of any amounts previously paid under Section 9.1(b) and 9.1(c), under Section 9.2(a)(ii), (iv), and (v), and under subsections (ii) and (iii) of this Section 9.2(b); and then

(iii)           Thereafter, but subject to Section 9.4, to the Members as follows:

9.3            Intentionally Omitted.

9.4            True-Up. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 9, which are intended to permit distributions of the Orion Member’s promote on an interim basis, distributions on account of Distributable Cash from Capital Transactions shall ultimately be determined in the aggregate for all Properties and over the entire term of the Company as a whole. If, upon the final dissolution and liquidation of the Company, the financial statements for the Company shall show, or it is otherwise determined by the Company’s accountants, that the aggregate distributions made to the Orion Member pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(iii) and 9.2(b)(iii) exceed the amount of the aggregate distributions that should have been made to the Orion Member when calculating the aggregate Distributable Cash from Capital Transactions with respect to all Capital Transactions consummated from the commencement of the term of the Company to the date of such calculation (any such over-distribution, an “Excess”), then the proceeds available in connection with the final dissolution and liquidation of the Company shall be distributed to the Investor Member until the Excess, if any, on the date of such distribution has been reduced to $0.00, and if such proceeds are insufficient to reduce the Excess to $0.00, then the Orion Member shall promptly pay to the Investor Member the amount necessary to reduce such Excess to $0.00.

9.5            Limitation Upon Distributions. No distribution shall be made to the Members if prohibited by the Delaware Act.

9.6            Priority and Return of Capital. No Member shall have priority over any other Member, either as to the return of Capital Contributions or as to Net Profits, Net Losses or distributions, except as otherwise specifically provided for herein. This Section shall not apply to loans (as distinguished from Capital Contributions) a Member has made to the Company.

9.7            Amounts Withheld. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any state, local or foreign tax law with respect to any payment, distribution or allocation to the Members shall be treated as amounts paid or distributed, as the case may be, to the Members with respect to which such amount was withheld pursuant to this Section 9.7. The Company is authorized to withhold from payments, distributions or allocations to the Members, and to pay over to any federal, state and local government or any foreign government, any amounts required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any other federal, state or local law or any foreign law, and shall allocate any such amounts to the Members with respect to which such amounts were withheld. To the extent the Company is required to pay any such amount to any taxing authority prior to a Member’s receipt of a related distribution, such Member shall reimburse the Company for such amount to the extent such tax payment does not reduce a distribution to the Member within thirty (30) days of the payment to the taxing authority.

9.8           Tax Distribution. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, for any Fiscal Year other than the year in which the Company distributes the proceeds of liquidation to the Members pursuant to Section 13.3(b), the distributions actually distributable to any Member pursuant to Section 9.1 and Section 9.2, in each case taking into account Section 9.4, would be insufficient to pay the Assumed Tax Liability, then, to the extent the Company has sufficient cash on hand to do so, the Company shall distribute to such Member, on or about April 1 of the following year, the amount of cash needed to pay the Assumed Tax Liability (a “Tax Distribution”). Any Tax Distribution pursuant to this Section 9.8 shall be treated as an advance against and shall reduce future distributions under Sections 9.1 and 9.2.

ARTICLE 10 
ALLOCATIONS OF NET PROFITS AND NET LOSSES

10.1          Separate Allocations Among Properties. The Company’s Net Profit and Net Loss shall be allocated between the Members on a Property-by-Property basis. To the extent necessary (as determined by the Administrative Member in good faith based on the advice of counsel or the Company’s tax accountants) to properly account for and allocate the Company Net Profit and Net Loss, the Administrative Member is hereby authorized to modify the provisions of this Article 10 to incorporate concepts of separate accounting or to otherwise achieve the legally correct result, but in all events taking into account the intentions of the Members to account for all Net Profit and Net Loss in a manner that effectively treats each Property as being held by a separate Entity.

10.2          Allocation of Net Profits and Net Losses. The Company’s Net Profit and Net Loss derived from each Property attributable to each Fiscal Year shall be determined as though the books of the Company were closed as of the end of such Fiscal Year. The rules of this Section 10.2 shall apply except as provided in Section 10.5.

(a)               For each Fiscal Year, Net Profit or Net Loss (other than items allocated pursuant to Section 10.5) derived from each Property shall be allocated, insofar as possible, so that, following all allocations pursuant to Section 10.5 for such Fiscal Year and the allocation pursuant to this Section 10.2 which is here being described, each Member’s Capital Account balance shall be equal to the result (be it positive, negative or zero) of subtracting (i) the sum of (x) such Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain and (y) such Member’s share of Member Minimum Gain, from (ii) such Member’s Target Amount applicable to each Property at the end of such Fiscal Year.

(b)               Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law: (i) in applying subsection (a), to the extent possible each item of income, gain, loss, and deduction shall be allocated among the Members in the same proportions as each other such item, and, to the extent permitted by law, each item of credit shall be allocated in such proportions; and (ii) to the extent necessary to produce the result prescribed by subsection (a), items of income and gain shall be allocated separately from items of loss and deduction, in which event the proportions applicable to items of income and gain shall (to the extent permitted by law) be applicable to items of credit.

(c)               If, for any Fiscal Year, (i) the aggregate of all items of income, gain, loss, and deduction (other than those to be allocated pursuant to Section 10.5) derived from a Property is zero and (ii) each Member’s Capital Account balance with respect to such Property equals, prior to allocations pursuant to this Section 10.2 for such Fiscal Year, the result (be it positive, negative or zero) of subtracting (A) the sum of (1) such Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain and (2) such Member’s share of Member Minimum Gain, from (B) such Member’s Target Amount at the end of such Fiscal Year with respect to the applicable Property then, except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law, all such items, and (to the extent permitted by law) all items of credit, shall be allocated among all Members in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages with respect to the applicable Property as in effect throughout such Fiscal Year.

(d)               For these purposes, the “Target Amount” of a Member at the end of any Fiscal Year means the amount which such Member would then be entitled to receive in respect of a Property if, immediately following such Fiscal Year: (i) all of the assets of the Company related to the applicable Property were sold for cash equal to their respective book values (as determined for Capital Account maintenance purposes under Section 704 of the Code and the Regulations thereunder) (or, in the case of assets subject to liabilities for which the creditor’s right is limited to assets of the Company, the amounts of such liabilities, if greater than the aggregate book values of such assets); and (ii) the proceeds of such sale were applied to pay all debts of the Company related to the applicable Property with the balance distributed as provided in Section 9.2, provided, however, that if the sale described in clause (i) would not generate proceeds sufficient to pay all debts of the Company related to the applicable Property, the Members shall be considered entitled in the aggregate (and as among them in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages) to receive, pursuant to Section 9.2, a negative amount equal to the excess of such debts over such proceeds.

10.3          Limitation on Loss Allocations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no loss or item of deduction shall be allocated to a Member if such allocation would cause such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as of the last day of the Fiscal Year or other period to which such allocation relates. Any amounts not allocated to a Member pursuant to the limitations set forth in this Section 10.3 shall be allocated to the other Members to the extent possible without violating the limitations set forth in this Section 10.3, and any amounts remaining to be allocated shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2.

10.4          Intention and Construction of Allocations. It is the intention of the Members to allocate Net Profits and Net Losses with respect to a particular Property in such a manner as to cause each Member’s Capital Account related to such Property to always equal the amount of cash such Member would be entitled to receive if the Company sold its assets related to the applicable Property for their book values and, after satisfying all Company liabilities related to the applicable Property, the proceeds from such sale, as well as all other funds of the Company related to the applicable Property, were then distributed to the Members pursuant to Section 9.2. These provisions shall be so interpreted as necessary to accomplish such result.

10.5          Special Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made in the following order:

(a)               Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations, in the event there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during a Company Fiscal Year with respect to a particular Property, each Member shall be allocated (before any other allocation is made pursuant to this Article 10) items of income and gain for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent Fiscal Years) in an amount equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain with respect to such Property.

(i)            The determination of a Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(g) of the Regulations.

(ii)           The items to be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with this Section 10.5(a) shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(f)(6) of the Regulations.

(iii)          This Section 10.5(a) is intended to comply with the Minimum Gain chargeback requirement set forth in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(b)               Member Minimum Gain Chargeback.

(i)            Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(i)(4), in the event there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain during a Company Fiscal Year with respect to a particular Property, each Member who has a share of that Member Minimum Gain as of the beginning of the year, to the extent required by Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Regulations shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Fiscal Years) in an amount equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain with respect to such Property.

(ii)           Allocations pursuant to this Section 10.5(b) shall be made in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Regulations. This Section 10.5(b) is intended to comply with the requirement set forth in Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c)               Qualified Income Offset Allocation. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5) or 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6) of the Regulations which would cause such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit with respect to a particular Property, items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as quickly as possible. This Section 10.5(c) is intended to constitute a “qualified income offset” in satisfaction of the alternate test for economic effect set forth in Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(d)               Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Company Fiscal Year with respect to a particular Property which is in excess of the sum of (i) any amounts such Member is obligated to restore pursuant to this Agreement, plus (ii) such Member’s distributive share of Company Minimum Gain as of such date, plus (iii) such Member’s share of Member Minimum Gain determined pursuant to Section 1.704-2(i)(5) of the Regulations, each such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain relating to such Property in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 10.5(d) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article 10 have been made, except assuming that Section 10.5(c) and this Section 10.5(d) were not contained in this Agreement.

(e)               Allocation of Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions with respect to a particular Property shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Ownership Percentages.

(f)                Allocation of Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Member Nonrecourse Deductions with respect to a particular Property shall be allocated as prescribed by the Regulations.

10.6          Built-In Gain or Loss/Section 704(c) Tax Allocations. In the event that the Capital Account of any Member with respect to a particular Property is credited with or adjusted to reflect the fair market value of a Company property or properties, the Members’ distributive shares of depreciation, depletion, amortization, and gain or loss, as computed for tax purposes, with respect to such property, shall be determined pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code and the Regulations thereunder, so as to take account of the variation between the adjusted tax basis and book value of such property. For purposes of such allocations, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Company previously elected the remedial allocation method described in Section 1.704-3(d) of the Regulations with respect to the contributed portion of the Initial Properties, as reflected in the Company’s books and records]ⁱ. Any deductions, income, gain or loss specially allocated pursuant to this Section 10.6 shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining Net Profits or Net Losses or for purposes of adjusting a Member’s Capital Account with respect to the applicable Property.

10.7          Recapture. Ordinary taxable income arising from the recapture of depreciation and/or investment tax credit with respect to a particular Property shall be allocated to the Members in the same manner as such depreciation and/or investment tax credit was allocated to them.

10.8          Prohibition Against Retroactive Allocations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Member shall be allocated any loss, credit, or income attributable to a period prior to its admission to the Company. In the event that a Member Transfers all or a portion of his Interest, or if there is a reduction in a Member’s Ownership Percentage with respect to a particular Property due to the admission of new Members or otherwise, each Member’s distributive share of Company items of income, loss, credit, etc. attributable to such Property, shall be determined by taking into account each Member’s varying Interests in the Company with respect to such Property during the Company’s taxable year. For this purpose, unless the Administrative Member, in its sole discretion, elects to provide for an interim closing of the Company’s books, each Member’s distributive share shall be estimated by taking the pro rata portion of the distributive share such Member would have included in his taxable income had he maintained his Ownership Percentage with respect to the applicable Property throughout the Company year. Such proration shall be based upon the portion of the year during which such Member held the Ownership Percentage, except that extraordinary, non-recurring items shall be allocated to the Persons holding Interests with respect to the applicable Property at the time such extraordinary items occur.

10.9          Allocation of Nonrecourse Liabilities. The “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Company (within the meaning of Section 1.752-3(a)(3) of the Regulations) with respect to a particular Property shall be shared by the Members in accordance with their respective Ownership Percentages.

10.10      Alternative Allocations. It is the Members’ intention that each Member’s distributive share of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit (or item thereof) with respect to a particular Property be determined and allocated consistently with the provisions of the Code, including Sections 704(b) and 704(c) of the Code. If the Administrative Member reasonably deems it necessary in order to comply with the Code, the Administrative Member may allocate income, gain, loss, deduction or credit (or items thereof) arising in any Fiscal Year differently than as provided for in this Article 10 if, and to the extent, (a) allocating income, gain, loss, deduction or credit (or item thereof) with respect to a particular Property would cause the determinations and allocations of each Member’s distributive share of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit (or item thereof) attributable to such Property not to be permitted by the Code and any applicable Regulations or (b) such allocation would be inconsistent with a Member’s Interest relating to such Property taking into consideration all facts and circumstances; provided, however, that any allocation pursuant to this Section 10.10 shall not materially alter the economic agreement between or among the Members. Any allocation made pursuant to this Section 10.10 will be a complete substitute for any allocation otherwise provided for in this Agreement, and no further amendment of this Agreement or approval by any Member is necessary to effectuate such allocation. In making any such allocations under this Section 10.10 (“New Allocations”) the Administrative Member may act in reliance upon advice of counsel to the Company or the Company’s regular accountants that, in either case, in their respective opinions after examining the relevant provisions of the Code and any current or future proposed or final Regulations, the New Allocations are necessary in order to ensure that, in either the then-current year or in any preceding year, each Member’s distributive share of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit (or items thereof) with respect to a particular Property is determined and allocated in accordance with the Code and such Member’s Interest. New Allocations made by the Administrative Member in reliance upon the advice of counsel or accountants as described in this Section 10.10 will be deemed to be made in the best interests of the Company and all of the Members consistent with the duties of the Administrative Member under this Agreement and any such New Allocations will not give rise to any claim or cause of action by any Member against the Company or the Administrative Member.

The Company shall keep at its principal place of business the following records:

All such returns shall be presented to the Members for review prior to filing and at least fifteen (15) days prior to any applicable filing deadline (including any applicable extensions), and the failure of a Member to object to any such tax return within seven (7) Business Days after the date such tax return is delivered to such Member shall be deemed an approval of any tax election contained therein for purposes of Section 5.2(b)(x) hereof. Copies of such returns, or pertinent information therefrom, shall be furnished to the Members within a reasonable time after filing thereof.

11.4          Reports to Members.

(a)               Within forty-five (45) days after the close of each Fiscal Year, beginning with the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2021, the Administrative Member shall provide to the Members drafts of audited financial statements of the Company for such Fiscal Year, with final audited financial statements to be provided within sixty (60) days after the close of each Fiscal Year. Such financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (including footnotes and year-end adjustments, but subject to estimated depreciation) and shall include an income and expense statement, statement of cash flows, and balance sheet which shall reflect the results of the operations of the Company for such Fiscal Year, the unpaid balance due on all obligations of the Company, a statement of changes in the Members’ equity, and all other information customarily reflected in similar financial statements and as reasonably requested by a Member.

(b)               The Administrative Member shall have prepared and delivered to the Members, (a) within twenty (20) days after the end of each month of each Fiscal Year with respect to the Company and each Subsidiary, (i) monthly income and expense statements and balance sheets, except with respect to the last month of each calendar year, (ii) a copy of cash disbursements ledger entries for such period, (iii) a copy of cash receipts ledger entries for such period, (iv) an aged receivables report, if applicable, (v) a trial balance, (vi) a variance analysis-budget vs. actual (line items 10% or greater), (vii) a copy of check registers, bank account statements and reconciliations, and (viii) a rent roll; and (b) within forty five (45) days after the end of each of the first three (3) calendar quarters of each Fiscal Year with respect to the Company and each Subsidiary, an unaudited income and expense statement, statement of cash flows, and balance sheet showing each Member’s Capital Account balance with respect to each such quarter. Such financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, subject to estimated depreciation and the lack of footnotes and year-end adjustments.

(c)               The Partnership Representative shall cause to be prepared and delivered to the Members by February 15th of each Fiscal Year (i) a report (inclusive of a draft K-1 and various supporting documents) reflecting each Member’s share of the Company’s estimated taxable income for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, and (ii) an annual depreciation schedule prepared in accordance with the alternative depreciation system using the straight-line method.

(d)               The Administrative Member shall maintain the books and records of the Company, and shall prepare the reports set forth in Sections 11.4(b) and (c), (i) on a “stand alone” basis for each Property, as if the investment in each Property were made pursuant to a separate joint venture agreement having the same parties and same economic terms as set forth in this Agreement (i.e., as if such Property were the sole asset of the Company), and (ii) on an aggregate basis taking into account all assets of the Company. Annually, by May 1 of each Fiscal Year, in connection with the preparation of tax returns under Section 11.3, the Administrative Member shall prepare or cause to be prepared a separate tax statement for each Property to be provided to Investor Member concurrently with Investor Member’s Schedule K-1 reflecting such “stand alone” treatment for tax purposes so that Investor Member can determine how Investor Member’s share of cash distributions, capital contributions and allocations of profits and losses for tax purposes for each Fiscal Year shall be apportioned to and among its members on a Property-by-Property basis. Such separate tax statements shall be prepared on a tax basis and in accordance with the federal income tax laws in effect during the applicable Fiscal Year. If the Administrative Member reasonably determines that any cash, revenue, liability, income, expense, gain, loss or other item is not clearly attributable to a specific Property, then the Administrative Member shall apportion such item to and among the Properties in any manner determined by the Administrative Member to be reasonable. The Administrative Member and the Members further acknowledge that the “stand alone” reports and financial statements may be augmented or modified as reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the requirements described in the preceding sentence to be accomplished satisfactorily as reasonably determined by the Members. For the avoidance of doubt, it is anticipated that, to the extent permitted by applicable law (including Section 704 of the Code and the Regulations thereunder), the Company will prepare, file with the IRS, and send to the Investor Member, a single K-1 for each taxable year that is a composite of the “stand alone” Property-by-Property statements contemplated by this Section 11.4(d). To the extent that any costs or expenses of any tax audits are reasonably attributable to the application of this Section 11.4(d), as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Member, such costs and expenses shall be borne solely by the Investor Member, and the Investor Member shall not pursue recovery of any damages attributable to the application of this Section 11.4(d) from the Administrative Member.

(e)               In addition to the reports set forth above, the Administrative Member shall prepare and deliver to the Members such other reports as any Member may reasonably request from time to time.

(f)                Any damages for breach of Section 13.1(d) may be offset against distributions by the Company to which the Withdrawing Member would otherwise be entitled.

13.3          Winding Up, Liquidation and Distribution of Assets.

(a)             Upon dissolution, an accounting shall be made by the Company’s accountants of the accounts of the Company and of the Company’s assets, liabilities and operations, from the date of the last previous accounting until the date of dissolution. The Administrative Member, or if none, the Person or Persons selected by the Members (the “Liquidators”), shall immediately proceed to wind up the affairs of the Company.

(b)             If the Company is dissolved and its affairs are to be wound up, the Liquidators shall:

ARTICLE 14 
PROPERTY SALE OPTION

14.1          Sale of Properties.

(a)               The sale procedure (the “Property Sale Procedure”) described in this Article 14 may be initiated by the Investor Member at any time.

(b)               In the event the Investor Member initiates the Property Sale Procedure pursuant to Section 14.1(a) above, (for purposes of this Article 14, the Investor Member shall be referred to herein as the “Commencing Member”), then the Commencing Member shall initiate such Property Sale Procedure by giving written notice thereof to the Orion Member. Thereafter, the Members shall in good faith cooperate and negotiate for a period of thirty (30) days as to (i) the gross sale price for the Properties, (ii) the marketing efforts to be undertaken, and (iii) the other terms and conditions of a sale of such Properties to a third party purchaser.

14.2          Sale Option.

(a)               Generally. If the Members are unable to reach agreement on the matters set forth in Section 14.1 within the thirty (30) day period set forth therein, then the Commencing Member may deliver a written notice (a “Sale Notice”) to the Orion Member (hereinafter referred to as the “Responding Member” for purposes of this Article 14) setting forth the gross sale price at which the Commencing Member proposes to sell the Properties (the “Target Sale Price”). The Target Sale Price must be in an amount equal to at least the sum of (i) the amount of any indebtedness directly or indirectly secured by the Properties through Master Lease Financing, including all fees, yield maintenance and penalty amounts, and/or other payments applicable to any prepayment of such indebtedness, and (ii) any other indebtedness or obligation owed by the Company and the Subsidiaries to third parties.

Until the date that is forty-five (45) days after receipt of a Sale Notice, the Responding Member may deliver to the Commencing Member a written notice (a “Purchase Notice”) electing to purchase the Properties. In the event the Responding Member does not exercise its right to purchase the Properties within such forty-five (45) day period, then the Commencing Member shall be entitled to proceed with a sale of the Properties pursuant to the provisions of this Section 14.2.

(b)               Purchase Election. In the event the Responding Member timely exercises its right to purchase the Properties following its receipt of a Sale Notice, the Responding Member (hereinafter referred to as the “Purchasing Member”) shall purchase the Properties in accordance with the following terms and conditions:

(i)             The price payable by the Purchasing Member to the Commencing Member (hereinafter referred to as the “Selling Member”) for the Properties (the “Purchase Option Purchase Price”) shall equal the amount which the Selling Member would receive under this Agreement if the Properties were sold for cash to an unrelated Person for a gross sale price equal to the Target Sale Price and the Distributable Cash from Capital Transactions resulting from such sale were distributed to the Members pursuant to Section 9.2, after payment of all indebtedness directly or, by virtue of Master Lease Financing, indirectly secured by such Properties, including all fees, yield maintenance and penalty amounts, and/or other payments applicable to any prepayment of such indebtedness, after paying all other indebtedness and obligations owed by the Company and the Subsidiaries to third parties, and after liquidating any Reserves then existing and without establishing any additional Reserves.

(ii)            Within ten (10) days after delivering its Purchase Notice, the Purchasing Member shall deposit with First American Title Insurance Company (Atlanta, Georgia NCS office) an earnest money deposit equal to $2,000,000.00, which deposit shall be held in escrow and applied against the Purchase Option Purchase Price at closing.

(iii)           The purchase of the Properties shall be closed and consummated on a date specified by Purchaser in the Purchase Notice, which date shall be at least forty five (45) days but not more than sixty (60) days after delivery of the Purchase Notice. Closing shall take place on the designated closing date by delivery of documents through First American Title Insurance Company (Atlanta, Georgia NCS office).

(iv)           At the closing, the Master Lessees shall deliver to the Purchasing Member all documents customarily required (or reasonably required by the Purchasing Member) to convey the Properties to the Purchasing Member, which documents shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchasing Member. Title to the Properties shall be conveyed free and clear of any Master Lease Documents or other Loan Documents and without any other exceptions not included in the Master Lessees’ title insurance policies or not otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement or previously approved by the Company. Alternatively, upon the mutual agreement of the parties, the purchase transaction may be structured as a conveyance of membership interests in the Company or the Subsidiaries.

(v)           Rentals and other income, as well as taxes and operating expenses with respect to the Properties (to the extent not payable directly or reimbursable by the tenants of the Properties), shall be prorated between the Company and the Purchasing Member at closing. In the event accurate prorations and other adjustments cannot be made at closing because current bills or statements or other information is not available, the parties shall prorate on the best available information, subject to adjustment after the closing as the actual amounts to be prorated are determined.

(vi)          Closing costs, such as transfer taxes and title insurance premiums shall be allocated between the Company and the Purchasing Member in accordance with customary practices in the state, county, and municipality in which the Properties are located. The Purchasing Member and the Selling Member each shall pay its own attorneys’ fees and expenses.

(vii)         Pending the closing, the Properties shall be operated and maintained and the business of the Master Lessees conducted consistent with prior practices and then current Property Operating Budgets. On the Business Day immediately preceding the closing, the Company shall make a distribution of any Distributable Cash from Operations pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof. The Purchase Option Purchase Price for the Properties and all other amounts payable in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby shall be payable at the closing by federal wire of immediately available funds.

(viii)        In the event that the Responding Member delivers a Purchase Notice but thereafter defaults in its agreement to acquire the Properties on the scheduled date of closing, then the Responding Member’s earnest money deposit shall be disbursed to the Selling Member as full liquidated damages on account of the Responding Member’s default. In addition, the Selling Member thereafter may, without further consent of the Responding Member, cause the Company to market the applicable Properties in accordance with the terms of Section 14.2(c) below, provided that the gross sale price for the Properties may be marketed and sold for less than 95% of the Target Sale Price.

(c)               Sale Election. In the event the Responding Member does not exercise its right to purchase the Properties within the time period specified in Section 14.2(a) above, then the Commencing Member may, without further consent of the Responding Member, cause the Company to market the Properties at a gross sale price equal to not less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the Target Sale Price for a period of six (6) months (the “Sales Period”). If the Company, at the direction of the Commencing Member, fails to enter into a Qualifying Agreement (as defined in Section 14.2(d) below) for the sale of the Properties during the Sales Period, the Commencing Member shall not be entitled to cause the Company to continue to market or sell the Properties without submitting a new Sale Notice to the Responding Member and following the procedures set forth in Section 14.2(a) above with respect to such Sale Notice. If the Commencing Member succeeds in obtaining a Qualifying Agreement for the sale of the Properties during the Sales Period then the Company shall proceed to sell the Properties pursuant to such Qualifying Agreement.

(d)               Qualifying Agreement. “Qualifying Agreement” shall mean a purchase and sale agreement for the sale of all, but not less than all, of the Properties which meets the following requirements:

(i)             The gross sale price in such transaction must equal or exceed ninety-five percent (95%) of the Target Sale Price and will be paid in full, in cash, at the closing (subject to customary prorations, credits, and cost allocations);

(ii)            The purchaser thereunder shall have a reasonably demonstrable financial capability to make the deposits required under the agreement and to provide the equity that, together with generally available conventional mortgage financing, will be sufficient to pay the purchase price;

(iii)           Closing is required within 60 days of the date of execution of the purchase and sale agreement, with no rights of extension other than one 30-day extension period beyond such 60 days;

(iv)           The purchaser shall not be an Affiliate of the Commencing Member; and

(v)            The sale of the Properties shall be without representations or warranties as to the physical condition of the improvements constructed on the Properties other than such representations and warranties as are generally accepted as being standard and customary with respect to the sale of similar properties.

(e)               Marketing. During the Sales Period, the Commencing Member may require the Company (i) to incur reasonable and customary expenses in connection with the marketing of the Properties, such as the preparation of studies and brochures and legal fees to prepare and negotiate agreements, and (ii) to retain on a nonexclusive or exclusive basis one or more brokers designated by the Commencing Member, provided that (A) such brokers are not Affiliates of the Commencing Member, and (B) the commissions or fees payable to such broker(s) are consistent with commissions and fees payable to brokers in connection with the sale of properties similar to the Properties.

This appointment is made pursuant to the provisions of Section 6223 of the Code and the Partnership Representative shall act on behalf of the Company for purposes of Sections 6221 through 6241 of the Code.

The Partnership Representative shall be authorized, on behalf of the Company, to designate a Person to act as the Partnership Representative’s Designated Individual at such time and in such manner as may be prescribed by the Regulations.

(b)               The Partnership Representative shall represent the Company (at the Company’s expense) in connection with any disputes, controversies or proceedings with the Internal Revenue Service or with any state, local, or non-U.S. taxing authority involving the Company, and subject to the terms of Section 5.2 in the case of any such action which constitutes a Major Decision, the Partnership Representative shall be authorized and entitled to (i) sign consents, enter into settlement and other agreements with such authorities with respect to any such examinations or proceedings, (ii) expend the Company’s funds for professional services incurred in connection therewith, and (iii) take such actions on behalf of the Company in any and all proceedings with the Internal Revenue Service and any other such taxing authority as it reasonably determines to be appropriate.

The Partnership Representative shall periodically update the Members as to the status of any disputes, controversies, or proceedings.

(c)               The Partnership Representative shall give prompt notice to the Members of (i) the receipt by the Partnership Representative of written notice that a federal, state or local taxing authority intends to examine the Company’s income tax returns for any year; (ii) receipt by the Partnership Representative of written notice of a final partnership adjustment under Code Section 6231; and (iii) receipt of any request by the Partnership Representative from the Internal Revenue Service for waiver of any applicable statute of limitations with respect to any tax return of the Company.

The Partnership Representative shall keep all Members reasonably informed of the progress of any tax audits or examinations.

(d)               In the event of any controversy with the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority involving the Company, the outcome of which may adversely affect the Company, directly or indirectly, or the amount of allocation or profits, gains, credits or losses of the Company to an individual Member, the Partnership Representative shall cause the Company to incur such reasonable expenses as the Partnership Representative deems necessary or advisable and in the interest of the Company in connection with any such controversy, including, without limitation, attorneys’ and accountants’ fees.

(e)               The Partnership Representative may cause the Company, in connection with any audit or proposed adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service, to make a valid election pursuant to Section 6226 of the Code and to comply with any requirements necessary to the continued validity of such election and accordingly to require each Person who was a Member during the Fiscal Year of the Company that was audited (a “Review Year”) to personally bear any tax, interest and penalty resulting from adjustments based on such audit, and shall notify each such Person (and the Internal Revenue Service) of its share of such audit adjustments. Each Member agrees to the foregoing, even if such Person is no longer a Member at the time of the assessment of such tax, interest or penalty.

(f)                In the event that the Company is unable (or otherwise fails) to make an election pursuant to Section 6226 of the Code and the Company is subject to an entity-level tax (including any interest, addition to tax, or penalties related thereto, an “Entity Tax”) as a result of adjustments to items of income, gain, deduction, loss or credit of the Company for any Review Year, then (i) each Member agrees that each Person who was a Member during the Review Year, even if such Person is no longer a Member (unless a transferee Member has agreed to bear such liability in an appropriate document evidencing a Transfer effectuated in accordance with Article 12 hereof), shall pay to the Company, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice from the Partnership Representative requesting the payment, an amount equal to such Person’s proportionate share of such liability (including such Member’s share of any additional accrued interest assessed against the Company relating to such Member’s share of the assessed amounts), as reasonably determined by the Partnership Representative, based on the amount each such Person would have borne (computed at the tax rate used to compute the Company’s liability, as may be adjusted pursuant to clause (ii) below) had the Company’s tax return for such Review Year reflected the audit adjustment, and the expense for the Company’s payment of such Entity Tax shall be specially allocated to such Persons (or their successors) in such proportions, and (ii) the Partnership Representative will use commercially reasonable efforts to (x) if a Member was a tax-exempt entity during such Review Year, reduce the amount of such Entity Tax liability owed by the Company on account of the tax-exempt status of such Member as provided in Section 6225(c)(3) of the Code, (y) if a Member was a C corporation or an individual during such Review Year, reduce the amount of such Entity Tax liability owed by the Company on account of such status as provided in Section 6225(c)(4) of the Code, and (z) reduce, to the extent possible, the Entity Tax liability based on any other provisions of the Code or Regulations thereunder that may be applicable in such circumstance. At the reasonable discretion of the Orion Member, with respect to current Members, the Company may alternatively allow some or all of a Member’s obligation pursuant to the preceding sentence to be applied to and reduce the next distribution(s) otherwise payable to such Member under this Agreement provided that such application to and reduction of the distributions shall apply to all current Members having a share of the assessment, pro-rata based on the Members’ shares of the assessment.

(g)               The Members acknowledge and agree that the Company may pay tax obligations under this Section 16.12 that relate to a period prior to the time a Member was admitted to the Company as a Member or when the Member’s Economic Interest was less, and the Company, after reasonable efforts, may be unable to collect payments from Review Year Members pursuant to clause (f) of this Section 16.12. Consequently, a Member at the time of payment by the Company may bear the burden of tax obligations related to adjustments to tax items from which the Member did not benefit.

(h)               The Orion Member is specifically directed and authorized to take whatever steps in its discretion it deems necessary or desirable to perfect the Orion Member’s designation as Partnership Representative, including, without limitation, filing any forms or documents with the Internal Revenue Service and taking such other action as the Orion Member in its discretion determines may from time to time be required or advisable under the Regulations.

(i)                 The provisions contained in this Section 16.12 shall survive the dissolution of the Company and the withdrawal of any Member or the Transfer of any Member’s Membership Interest and/or Economic Interest in the Company. The provisions of this Section 16.12 shall survive the termination of the Company and shall remain binding on the Members for as long a period of time as is necessary to resolve with the Internal Revenue Service any and all matters regarding the federal income taxation of the Company or the Members, and any other proceeding with any other such taxing authority, and for the Members to satisfy their obligations hereunder. Each Member shall file tax returns consistent with the tax treatment set forth in the Company’s tax returns.
