LLC. If he does not close by that time, he must again give the notice and options to
the LLC and the LLC Members before he sells the interest.

Member unless a majority of the non-selling Members consent to him becoming a
Member. The non-member purchaser will be entitled, however, to share in such
profits and losses, to receive such distributions, and to receive such allocation of
income, gain, loss, deduction, credit or similar items to which the selling member
would be entitled, to the extent of the interest assigned, and will be subject to calls for
contributions under the terms of this Agreement. The purchaser, by purchasing the
selling member’s interest, agrees to be subject to all the terms of this Agreement as if
he were a Member.

its assets, as may be adjusted by the Members in their discretion. The initial Set Price
shall be adjusted no later than ________________. This basis for determining the Set
