Section 4.02    Specific Performance.
The Members acknowledge and agree that an award of money damages would be inadequate for any breach of the provisions of this Article IV and Article V and any such breach would cause the non-breaching parties irreparable harm. Accordingly, the Members agree that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Article IV and Article V by a Member, the Members, to the fullest extent permitted by law, will also be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance; provided such Member is not in material default hereunder.

RIGHTS UPON A PROPOSED TRANSFER
Section 5.01    Right of First Offer.
(a)    Following the Control Period, except for a Permitted Transfer, no Membership Interest shall be Transferred unless the provisions of this Section 5.01 or Section 5.02 are first complied with. If a Member (the “ROFO Seller”) wishes to solicit proposals from third parties to acquire all, but not less than all, of the ROFO Seller’s Units, the ROFO Seller shall first provide a notice (the “ROFO Notice”) to the other Member, with a copy to the Company, containing: (i) the number and class of Units proposed to be transferred (the “ROFO Units”) and (ii) a request for the other Member (the “ROFO Non-Selling Member”) to specify the purchase price (the “ROFO Price”) and other terms and conditions on which the ROFO Non-Selling Member is willing to purchase the ROFO Units.

19




(b)    Within 30 days after receiving the ROFO Notice, the ROFO Non-Selling Member (the “ROFO Accepting Member”) may elect (the “ROFO Offer Notice”) to purchase all, but not less than all, of the ROFO Units. The ROFO Offer Notice shall specify the ROFO Price and other terms and conditions on which the ROFO Accepting Member is willing to purchase the ROFO Units.

(c)    If the ROFO Seller accepts the ROFO Accepting Member’s offer, the ROFO Accepting Member must purchase the ROFO Units in the manner, and subject to the terms and conditions, described in Section 5.01(d). If the ROFO Seller does not accept the offer from the ROFO Accepting Member or fails to make such election within 30 days after receiving the ROFO Offer Notice, the ROFO Seller may, during the next 120 days, Transfer the ROFO Units to a third party Transferee (i) at a purchase price not less than 105% of the ROFO Price and upon terms no more favorable to the proposed transferee than those specified in the ROFO Notice and (ii) subject to the applicable terms and restrictions of this Agreement, including Article IV.

Delivery of the ROFR Sellers’s Notice to the other Member (the “ROFR Non-Transferring Member”) shall constitute an offer (a “ROFR Offer”) by the ROFR Seller to sell the ROFR Units at the ROFR Sale Price to the ROFR Non-Transferring Member, which shall remain outstanding for a period of thirty (30) days after the delivery of the ROFR Seller’s Notice (subject to extension as provided below, the “ROFR Period”).

20




(c)    A failure by the ROFR Non-Transferring Member to validly deliver a ROFR Acceptance Notice during the ROFR Period shall be deemed a rejection of the ROFR Offer and a waiver of the ROFR Non-Transferring Member’s right to purchase any portion of the ROFR Units.
(d)    If the ROFR Non-Transferring Member does not elect to purchase all of the ROFR Units pursuant to this Section 5.02, then the ROFR Seller shall be free, for a period of sixty (60) days from the date of the expiration of the ROFR Period, to sell such ROFR Units to a third party (the “Proposed Transferee”) (x) at a price per Unit equal to or greater than the ROFR Price and upon terms no more favorable to the Proposed Transferee than those specified in the ROFR Seller’s Notice and (y) subject to the applicable terms and restrictions of this Agreement, including Article IV.

Section 7.04    Return of Contributions.
Except as expressly provided herein, no Economic Member is entitled to the return of any part of its Capital Contributions or to be paid interest in respect of either its Capital Account or its Capital Contributions.

22




Section 7.05    Capital Accounts.
A separate capital account (“Capital Account”) shall be established, determined and maintained for each Economic Member in accordance with the substantial economic effect test set forth in Treasury Regulation § 1.704-l(b)(2), which provides, in part, that a Capital Account shall be:

(b)    Each distribution in respect of an Economic Unit shall be paid by the Company only to the holder of record of such Economic Unit as of the record date set for such distribution. Such payment shall constitute full payment and satisfaction of the Company’s liability in respect of such payment, regardless of any claim of any Person who may have an interest in such payment by reason of an assignment or otherwise.
Section 8.02    Allocations.
After giving effect to the allocations set forth in Section 8.03, the Company shall allocate Profits and Losses for any Allocation Year among the Economic Members in accordance with the Economic Members’ Ownership Percentages.

23




Section 8.03    Special Allocations.
(a)    If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Allocation Year, each Economic Member shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such Allocation Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Allocation Years) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f)(6), 1.704-2(g)(2) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(i), or any successor provision. This Section 8.03(a) is intended to comply with the Company Minimum Gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(b)    Except as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during any Allocation Year, any Economic Member with a share of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain at the beginning of such Allocation Year shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such Allocation Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Allocation Years) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(ii), or any successor provisions. This Section 8.03(b) is intended to comply with the chargeback of items of income and gain requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(c)    In the event any Economic Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account at the end of any Allocation Year in excess of the sum of (A) the amount such Economic Member is required to restore pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and (B) the amount such Economic Member is deemed obligated to restore pursuant to Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5), such Economic Member shall be specially allocated items of Company gross income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 8.03(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Economic Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Article VIII have been tentatively made as if this Section 8.03(c) were not in this Agreement.
(d)    In the event any Economic Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account at the end of any Allocation Year in excess of the sum of (A) the amount such Economic Member is required to restore pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and (B) the amount such Economic Member is deemed obligated to restore pursuant to Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5), such Economic Member shall be specially allocated items of Company gross income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 8.03(d) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Economic Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Article VIII have been tentatively made as if Section 8.03(c) and this Section 8.03(d) were not in this Agreement.
(e)    Nonrecourse Deductions for any Allocation Year shall be allocated to the Economic Members pro rata in accordance with each Economic Member’s Ownership Percentage.

24




(f)    Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Allocation Year shall be allocated 100% to the Economic Member that bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i). If more than one Economic Member bears the economic risk of loss with respect to a Member Nonrecourse Debt, such Economic Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable thereto shall be allocated between or among such Economic Members in accordance with the ratios in which they share such economic risk of loss.
(g)    For purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Economic Members agree that Nonrecourse Liabilities of the Company shall be allocated to the Economic Members pro rata in accordance with each Economic Member’s Ownership Percentage.
(h)    To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Section 734(b) or 743(b) of the Code is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such item of gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Economic Members in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the Treasury Regulations.
(i)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8.03, the allocations set forth in Sections 8.03(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (h) (the “Required Allocations”) shall be taken into account so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of items of gross income, gain, loss and deduction allocated to each Economic Member pursuant to Sections 8.02 and 8.03, together, shall be equal to the net amount of such items that would have been allocated to each such Economic Member under Section 8.02 and Section 8.03 had the Required Allocations and this Section 8.03(i) not otherwise been provided in this Agreement. The Company may take into account future Required Allocations that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Required Allocations previously made.
(j)    Items of income, gain, loss and deduction realized in any taxable year that includes a Dissolution Event shall be allocated in a manner that will cause, to the extent possible, the ratio of each Economic Member’s Capital Account to the sum of all Economic Members’ Capital Accounts to be equal to such Economic Member’s Ownership Percentage. Upon a Dissolution Event, if any property is distributed in kind, any unrealized income, gain, loss, and deduction inherent in property that has not been reflected in the Capital Accounts previously shall be allocated among the Economic Members as if there were a taxable disposition of that property for the fair market value of that property on the date of distribution.
(k)    The allocations in Section 8.02, this Section 8.03 and Section 8.05, and the provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts, are included to ensure compliance with requirements of the federal income tax law (and any applicable state income tax laws). Such provisions are intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1 and 1.704-2 and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations and any amendment or successor provision thereto. The Management Members shall cause appropriate modifications to be made if unanticipated events might otherwise cause

25




this Agreement not to comply with such Treasury Regulations, so long as such modifications do not cause a material change in the relative economic benefit of the Economic Members under this Agreement.
Section 8.04    Section 704(c).
In accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Economic Members to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset Value (computed in accordance with the definition of same under this Agreement). In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (b) of the definition of Gross Asset Value hereof, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Board in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement; provided that the Company shall use the traditional method without curatives set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(b). Allocations pursuant to this Section 8.04 are solely for purposes of federal, state, and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Economic Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.
Section 8.05    Varying Interests.
All items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit shall be allocated, and all distributions shall be made, to the Persons shown on the records of the Company to have been Economic Members as of the last calendar day of the period for which the allocation or distribution is to be made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during any taxable year there is a change in any Economic Member’s Ownership Percentage, the Economic Members agree that their allocable shares of such items for the taxable year shall be determined on any method determined by the Board to be permissible under Code Section 706 and the related Treasury Regulations to take account of the Economic Members’ varying Ownership Percentages.
Section 8.06    Withheld Taxes.
All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any state or local tax law with respect to any payment, distribution or allocation to the Company or the Economic Members shall be treated as amounts distributed to the Economic Members pursuant to this Article VIII for all purposes of this Agreement. The Company is authorized to withhold from distributions, or with respect to allocations, to the Economic Members and to pay over to any federal, state or local government any amounts required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any other federal, state or local law and shall allocate such amounts to those Economic Members with respect to which such amounts were withheld.

26




Section 8.07    Limitations on Distributions.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not make a distribution to any Member on account of its interest in the Company if such distribution would violate Section 18-607 of the Delaware Act or other applicable law. All distributions required to be made under this Agreement shall be made subject to Sections 18-607 and 18-804 of the Delaware Act.

28




(iii)        Alternate Directors. Alternate Directors shall be entitled to receive notice of and attend meetings of the Board; provided that such attendance shall be only in an observer capacity unless a particular Alternate Director is serving in place of a Management Member’s designated Director. An Alternate Director may, without prior notice to the Company or any other Member, in the sole discretion of the Management Member that designated such Alternate Director, serve in place of any Management Member’s designated Director at any meeting of the Board or in connection with any action or approval of the Board, and the presence of such Alternate Director shall be the equivalent of the presence of a designated Director for all purposes under this Agreement.

(c)    Removal; Resignation; Vacancies.
(i)        Each Representative may be removed and replaced, with or without cause, at any time by the Management Member that designated him or her, in such Management Member’s sole discretion, but may not be removed or replaced by any other means, except as set forth in Section 9.02(b)(i)(C).

(iii)        If any Representative designated by a Management Member shall cease to serve as a Director for any reason, the vacancy resulting thereby shall be filled by another individual to be designated by that Management Member; provided that such Management Member would, at such time, otherwise be permitted to designate a Representative pursuant to Section 9.02(b). If any other Director shall cease to serve as a Director for any reason, the vacancy resulting thereby will be filled by another Director designated in accordance with Section 9.02(b)(ii).

Section 9.03    Board Meetings; Quorum.
(a)    The Board shall meet at least quarterly at the offices of the Company (or such other place as determined by the Board), with the participation of such officers of the Company as such Representative may request. Special meetings of the Board, to be held at the offices of the Company (or such other place as shall be determined by the Board), shall be called at the direction of any one Director. Attendance of a Director at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a Director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground that such meeting is not properly called or convened. The reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Directors and Alternate Directors in connection with any meeting of the Board shall be borne and paid by the Company (and any Director and Alternate Director may obtain reimbursement from the Company for any such reasonably documented costs and expenses).
(b)    During the Restricted Period, the presence of all Directors, present in person or participating in accordance with Section 9.07, shall be necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of the Board.

(b)    Actions Requiring Approval of the Board. In addition to such other matters as the Board may from time to time by resolution in accordance with Section 9.04(a) determine, and except for such actions as the Board may from time to time in accordance with Section 9.04(a) delegate to the officers of the Company that may be taken without approval of the Board, the Company shall not, and shall cause the Group Members not to, and shall not authorize or permit any officer or agent of the Company on behalf of the Company or of any Group Member to, effect any non-ministerial action, including the following actions:

(c)    Board Deadlock.
(i)        In the event that the Board is unable to obtain the requisite vote under Section 9.04(a) for the approval of any matter (such event, a “Deadlock”), either Management Member may give the other Management Member notice (a “Deadlock Notice”) of such matter that has not been approved. Within five days after receipt of the Deadlock Notice, the receiving Management Member shall submit to the other Management Member a written response (a “Dispute Response”). The Dispute Notice and the Dispute Response shall each include (A) a statement setting forth the position of the Management Member giving the notice and a summary of arguments supporting such position and (B) the name and title of a senior representative of such Management Member who has authority to settle the Deadlock. Within five days of the delivery of the Dispute Response, the senior representatives of both Management Members shall meet or communicate by telephone at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, and shall negotiate in good faith to the resolve the Deadlock.
(ii)        If such Deadlock has not been resolved within 30 days following delivery of the Dispute Response, then each Management Member agrees to have its Chief Executive Officer meet or communicate by telephone with the Chief Executive Officer of the other Management Member at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, and shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the Deadlock.

31




(iii)        If such Deadlock is not resolved within 60 days of delivery of the Deadlock Response, (A) prior to the IPO Date, either Management Member may require such Deadlock to be submitted to nonbinding mediation in Houston, Texas, before an impartial mediator acceptable to both Management Members and with senior representatives of both Members who have authority to settle the Deadlock in attendance, or (B) on or after the IPO Date, such Deadlock shall be resolved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Independent Directors on the Board.
(iv)        Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, until a Deadlock is resolved, each Management Member agrees to continue to perform its obligations under this Agreement and to cause its Representatives to continue to perform their obligations under this Agreement. In the event a Deadlock exists with respect to any Annual Budget, then, until such time as such Deadlock is resolved, the Annual Budget for such calendar year shall be based on the corresponding portions of the Annual Budget for the preceding calendar year (excluding any unusual or extraordinary revenues, expenses or capital expenditures that occurred during such prior calendar year), together with any additional amounts to the extent necessary, when combined with amounts authorized to be spent in such last Annual Budget, to meet the Partnership’s existing commitments and obligations and to conduct and maintain the Partnership’s operations and properties in the ordinary course of business. With respect to non-recurring amounts and capital expenditures, if any, for which there is no corresponding portion of the Annual Budget for the preceding calendar year, only budgeted amounts directed or approved by the Board of Directors on a case by case basis shall be utilized.
(d)    Related Party Transactions. After the IPO Date, any Related Party Transactions shall be approved in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Partnership Agreement.
Section 9.05    Notice.
Written notice of all regular meetings of the Board shall be given to all Directors and Alternate Directors at least 10 days prior to the regular meeting of the Board and one Business Day prior to any special meeting of the Board.

Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Board need be specified in the notice of such meeting. A meeting may be held at any time without notice if all the Directors are present or if those not present waive notice of the meeting either before or after such meeting. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the failure to give notice or documents or other information to an Alternate Director that is acting solely in an observer capacity shall not affect the validity of any action taken by the Board.
Section 9.06    Action by Written Consent of Board.

32




To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board may act without a meeting, without notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all Directors (which, for the avoidance of doubt, need not include the consent of any Alternate Directors unless a particular Alternate Director is serving in place of a Management Member’s designated Director). All actions taken by the Board in the form of a written consent shall be distributed to each Director and Alternate Director promptly upon the taking of such action.
Section 9.07    Conference Telephone Meetings.
Directors and Alternate Directors may participate in a meeting of the Board or any committee thereof by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

All decisions and resolutions of the Board shall be reported in the minutes of its meetings, which shall state the date, time and place of the meeting (or the date of the written consent in lieu of a meeting), the persons present at the meeting, the resolutions put to a vote (or the subject of a written consent) and the results of such voting (or written consent).

Except as otherwise required by law or the Partnership Agreement, all decisions of a committee shall require the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the committee members at any meeting at which a quorum is present.
(c)    A majority of the members of any committee may determine its action and fix the time and place of its meetings unless the Board shall otherwise provide. Notice of such meetings shall be given to each member of the committee in the manner provided for in Section 9.05. Subject to Section 9.09(a), the Board shall have power at any time to fill vacancies in, to change the membership of, or to dissolve any such committee.

The Conflicts Committee shall function in the manner described in the Partnership Agreement. Notwithstanding any duty otherwise existing at law or in equity, any matter approved by the Conflicts Committee in accordance with the provisions, and subject to the limitations, of the Partnership Agreement, shall not be deemed to be a breach of any duties owed by the Board or any Director to the Company or the Members.

38




prior to a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in respect of the matter for which the Indemnitee is seeking indemnification pursuant to this Section 13.01, the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified upon receipt by the Company of any undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall be ultimately determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized by this Section 13.01.

(d)    The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, on behalf of the Company, its Affiliates, the Indemnitees and such other Persons as the Company shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against, or expense that may be incurred by, such Person in connection with the Company’s or any of its Affiliate’s activities or such Person’s activities on behalf of the Company or any of its Affiliates, regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.
(e)    For purposes of this Section 13.01, the Company shall be deemed to have requested an Indemnitee to serve as fiduciary of an employee benefit plan whenever the performance by it of its duties to the Company also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by, it to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan; excise taxes assessed on an Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to applicable law shall constitute “fines” within the meaning of Section 13.01(a); and action taken or omitted by it with respect to any employee benefit plan in the performance of its duties for a purpose reasonably believed by it to be in the best interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose that is in the best interests of the Company.

Notwithstanding any duty otherwise existing at law or in equity, any matter approved by the Board in accordance with the provisions, and subject to the limitations, of the Partnership Agreement, shall not be deemed to be a breach of any duties owed by the Board or any Director to the Company or the Members.
(c)    The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict, eliminate or otherwise modify the duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities of an officer of the Company or a Member or Director otherwise existing at law, in equity or by operation of the preceding sentences, are agreed by the Company and the Members to replace such duties and liabilities of such officer, Member or Director. The Members (in their own names and in the name and on behalf of the Company), acknowledge, affirm and agree that (i) none of the Members would be willing to make an investment in the Company or enter into this Agreement, and no Representative would be willing to so serve on the Board, in the absence of this Section 13.05, and (ii) they have reviewed and understand the provisions of Section 18-1101(b) and (c) of the Delaware Act.
