          3.3.3 In the event all or a portion of a Membership Interest in the Company is transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to the extent it relates to the transferred Membership Interest; and

          3.3.4 In determining the amount of any liability for purposes of Sections 3.3.1 and 3.3.2 hereof, there shall be taken into account Code Section 752(c) and any other applicable provisions of the Code and Regulations.

          The foregoing provisions and the other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b), and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Regulations. In the event the Manager determines that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto, are computed in order to comply with such Regulations, the Manager may make such modification.

     3.4 No Interest. No Member shall be entitled to receive any interest on such Member’s Capital Contributions.

     3.5 No Withdrawal. No Member shall have the right to withdraw such Member’s Capital Contributions or to demand and receive property of the Company or any distribution in return for such Member’s Capital Contributions, except as may be specifically provided in this Agreement or required by law.

     3.6 Units.

          3.6.1 Units shall consist of (i) Class A Preferred Units, (ii) Class B Units, and any other classes of Units upon the Approval of the Members. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company may issue up to one billion (1,000,000,000) units of each class of Units.

12


 

          3.6.2 Class A Preferred Units and Class B Units.

               (a) As of the Effective Date, the aggregate number of Class B Units held by CCV is Fifty Six Million Five Hundred Sixty-Two Thousand Three Hundred Sixty Seven (56,562,367).

               (b) As of the Effective Date, the aggregate number of Class A Preferred Units held by TCI Bresnan is Nine Million One Hundred Nineteen Thousand Eight Hundred Seventy (9,119,870).

               (c) As of the Effective Date, the aggregate number of Class A Preferred Units held by TCID is Fifteen Million One Hundred Fifty-Four Thousand Seventy-Three (15,154,073).

          3.6.3 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the common units of Charter HoldCo are subdivided (by any split, distribution, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combined (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or if for any other reason the One-for-One Conditions are not met, the Units shall be similarly subdivided or combined or adjusted so that the One-for-One Conditions are met at all times. On any date, the “One-for-One Conditions” shall be deemed satisfied if, on such date, the number of Class A Preferred Units held by TCI Bresnan and TCID (assuming that they did not transfer any such Units issued to them pursuant to the Bresnan Purchase Agreement) is equal to the aggregate number of Charter HoldCo Class C Common Units that TCI Bresnan and TCID would have held on such date assuming (i) that they received a number of Charter HoldCo Class C Common Units equal to the number of Class A Preferred Units received by them under the Bresnan Purchase Agreement, and (ii) that they did not transfer any such Charter HoldCo Class C Common Units. The Manager is authorized to take any action necessary, desirable, or convenient to effectuate the foregoing.

          3.6.4 Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, prior to the Put Closing Date, Class A Preferred Units may be held only by TCI Bresnan or TCID, or any Person controlled by AT&T Corp. to which either TCI Bresnan or TCID transfers any Class A Preferred Units pursuant to Section 7.2.1.

     3.7 Equal Treatment. In any transaction triggering the rights of the Charter HoldCo Class C Common Members under Section 3.7 of the Charter HoldCo LLC Agreement, Class A Members shall be accorded the same rights or effectively the same rights as the Charter HoldCo Class C Common Members to the extent reasonably practicable. In implementing the foregoing provision, the Company shall take into consideration the fact that Class A Members own equity interests in the Company, a subsidiary of Charter HoldCo, rather than equity interests in Charter HoldCo. For instance, if Charter HoldCo Class C Common Members have a right to have certain of their Class C Common Units redeemed by Charter HoldCo under Section 3.7 of the Charter HoldCo LLC Agreement, Class A Members shall have the right to cause the Company to redeem or acquire such Class A Members’ Class A Preferred Units on effectively the same terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if CCV or its Affiliate contributes cash or assets to the Company and the Company issues Units to such Person, the

13


 

Class A Members shall not have any preemptive right to purchase any of such newly-issued Units. This Section 3.7 shall not apply on or after the Put Closing Date.

ARTICLE IV

Except as set forth in Article VII, no additional Members shall be admitted unless approved by the Manager and the Approval of the Members. No additional Member shall become a Member until such additional Member has made any required Capital Contribution and has become a party to this Agreement, and substitute Members may be admitted only in accordance with Article VII. The Members acknowledge that the admission of such new Members or the issuance of additional Membership Interests to pre-existing Members may dilute the Percentage Interests of the Members.

     4.3 Meetings of Members.

          4.3.1 No annual or regular meetings of the Members as such shall be required; if convened, however, meetings of the Members may be held at such date, time, and place as the Manager or as the Member or Members who properly noticed such meeting, as the case may be, may fix from time to time. At any meeting of the Members, the Chairman of the Board (or, if there is no Chairman or the Chairman so elects, a person appointed by the Manager) shall preside at the meeting and shall appoint another person to act as secretary of the meeting. The secretary of the meeting shall prepare written minutes of the meeting, which shall be maintained in the books and records of the Company.

          4.3.3 Notice of any meeting of the Members shall be sent or otherwise given by the Manager to the Members in accordance with this Agreement not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting. The notice shall specify the place, date, and hour of the meeting and the general nature of the business to be transacted. Except as the Members may otherwise agree, no business other than that described in the notice may be transacted at the meeting.

          4.3.4 Attendance in person of a Member at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of that meeting, except when the Member objects, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not duly called or

14


 

convened, and except that attendance at a meeting is not a waiver of any right to object to the consideration of matters not included in the notice of the meeting if that objection is expressly made at the meeting. Neither the business to be transacted nor the purpose of any meeting of Members need be specified in any written waiver of notice. The Members may participate in any meeting of the Members by means of conference telephone or similar means as long as all Members can hear one another. A Member so participating shall be deemed to be present in person at the meeting.

          4.3.5 Any action that can be taken at a meeting of the Members may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing setting forth the action so taken is signed and delivered to the Company by Members representing not less than the minimum number of Units necessary under this Agreement to approve the action. The Manager shall notify Members of all actions taken by such consents, and all such consents shall be maintained in the books and records of the Company.

     4.4 Voting by Members. The Members, acting solely in their capacities as Members, shall have the right to vote on, consent to, or otherwise approve only those matters as to which this Agreement or the Act specifically requires such approval. A Member may vote in person or by proxy executed in writing by the Member or by a duly authorized attorney-in-fact. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the Approval of the Members shall be all that is required as to all matters, including merger, consolidation, and conversion, as to which the vote, consent, or approval of the Members is required or permitted under this Agreement or the Act.

     4.5 Members Are Not Agents. No Member acting solely in the capacity of a Member is an agent of the Company, nor can any Member acting solely in the capacity of a Member bind the Company or execute any instrument on behalf of the Company.

     4.6 No Withdrawal. Except as provided in Articles VII and IX hereof, no Member may withdraw, retire, or resign from the Company without the prior Approval of the Members.

     4.7 Loans to Members.

          4.7.1 General. If a Member is, or reasonably expects to be, allocated taxable income described in Section 4.7.2 or 4.7.3, then upon such Member’s request, the Company, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.7, shall make a loan (“Tax Loan”) to such Member in an amount (“Tax Loan Amount”) no greater than the amount reasonably sufficient to enable such Member to fund its tax liability, or estimated tax payments, resulting from the allocation of such taxable income on the later of (i) five days before each of April 15, June 15, September 15, and December 15 for estimated tax payments and March 15 for final tax payments, and (ii) the date such Member requests the funding of such Tax Loan, which date shall be no later than one hundred fifty (150) days after the end of the taxable year in which the taxable income arises; provided, however, that in the case of Tax Loans made with respect to estimated income tax payments, the Tax Loan Amount shall be no greater than the amount of estimated taxes actually paid by the Member receiving the loan and that such Member shall provide to the Company reasonable documentation of the portion of its actual estimated tax payment attributable to the taxable income described

15


 

above. The Tax Loan shall be secured by a first priority security interest in all of such Member’s Units and may be prepaid at any time prior to the due date.

          4.7.2 Interest-Free Loan. With respect to any taxable year ending prior to February 14, 2002, if a Member is allocated any taxable income arising from a sale or other disposition (other than in the ordinary course of business) of the Property contributed by such Member pursuant to Code Section 704(c), other than taxable income arising from a fully taxable sale or disposition for which such Member has elected to receive an interest-bearing Tax-Loan under Section 4.7.3, then (i) the Tax Loan for such tax liability shall be due and payable to the Company no later than ninety (90) days after February 14, 2002 (or if a Class A Member exercises the Put, then the Put Closing Date) and shall be interest-free, and (ii) the Tax Loan Amount due shall be reduced by the amount of income taxes paid by the Member attributable to its recognition of imputed income under the interest-free Tax Loan.

          4.7.3 Non-Section 704(c) Loan. With respect to any taxable year ending prior to February 14, 2010, if a Member is allocated (i) any taxable income other than, in the case of a Class A Member prior to the Put Closing Date, any taxable income required to be taken into account in determining the allocation of items of income from operations to such Member under Section 6.3.8, or (ii) any taxable income arising from a fully taxable sale or disposition (other than in the ordinary course of business) of the Property contributed by such Member pursuant to Section 704(c) other than an amount for which the Member has elected to receive an interest-free Tax Loan pursuant to Section 4.7.2, then the Tax Loan for such tax liability shall be due and payable to the Company no later than February 14, 2010 and shall bear interest, compounded annually at a rate per annum equal to the applicable federal rate under Code Section 1274(d) for a loan due on February 14, 2010 plus 100 basis points.

          4.7.4 Acceleration of Repayment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.7, (i) if the Company makes any distributions to the Members pursuant to Section 6.8 or otherwise, the amount of each Member’s outstanding Tax Loan Amount equal to the amount of distributions made to such Member pursuant to Section 6.8 or otherwise shall become due and payable to the Company immediately, and (ii) if any Member sells, transfers, or exchanges any of its Units (in the case of a Class A Member prior to the Put Closing Date, other than to an entity controlled by AT&T Corp. which entity assumes the Tax Loan attributable to the transferred Units), the amount of such Member’s outstanding Tax Loan Amount up to the fair market value of the Units sold, transferred, or exchanged shall become due and payable to the Company immediately; provided, however, that in the event that prior to the Put Closing Date a Class A Member exchanges its Class A Preferred Units for CCI common stock pursuant to the CCI Exchange Agreement and not all shares of CCI common stock received in such exchange are permitted by CCI to be sold pursuant to a securities registration, only the amount of such Member’s outstanding Tax Loan Amount up to the excess, if any, of (i) the fair market value of CCI’s common stock received by such Member that is permitted to be sold, over (ii) forty-six percent (46%) of the fair market value of all CCI common stock received by such Member in the exchange shall become due and payable immediately. In the case described in the proviso of the preceding sentence, the Company shall receive a security interest in the unsold CCI common stock held by the Member, and as soon as any shares of CCI common stock not permitted to be

16


 

sold at the time of the exchange become eligible for sale pursuant to a securities registration, such Member’s outstanding Tax Loan Amount up to the excess, if any, of (i) the sum of (x) the fair market value of all CCI common stock received by such Member that is still held by such Member and that is now permitted to be sold, and (y) the aggregate sales proceeds of all CCI common stock received by such Member that has been sold, over (ii) the sum of (a) forty-six percent (46%) of the fair market value of all CCI common stock received by such Member in the exchange and (b) any Tax Loan Amount previously paid pursuant to the proviso of the preceding sentence or this sentence shall become due and payable immediately.

          4.7.5 Loan Documentation; Miscellaneous. A Member receiving a Tax Loan shall cooperate with the Company to document the respective parties’ rights and obligations under the Tax Loan including, without limitation, definitive loan documentation providing for and perfecting a security interest as contemplated by Section 4.7.1; provided that the funding of such Tax Loan will not be delayed pending the signing and delivery of such definitive documentation. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in Section 4.7, (i) the Company shall not make a Tax Loan to any Member if the loan would breach, or with the passage of time or the giving of notice result in a breach of, any contractual covenants of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and (ii) a Member entitled to receive a Tax Loan from the Company may waive its right to receive the loan. The Company shall negotiate the contractual covenants of the Company and its Subsidiaries in good faith so that the Company would be permitted to make such a Tax Loan.

AND
DISTRIBUTIONS

     6.1 Allocations of Net Profits. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 6.3 and 6.4 herein, Net Profits for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated to the Members in the following order of priority:

          6.1.1 Chargeback to the Extent of Net Losses. First, Net Profits shall be allocated to each Member to the extent of and in the reverse order of the aggregate amount of Net Losses previously allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 6.2.2, with respect to which Net Profits have not been previously allocated pursuant to this subsection.

          6.1.2 Other Net Profits. Second, except as provided in Section 6.1.1, Net Profits shall be allocated in accordance with the Members’ Percentage Interests.

     6.2 Allocations of Net Losses. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 6.3 and 6.4 herein, Net Losses for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated to the Members as follows:

          6.2.1 Chargeback to the Extent of Net Profits. First, except as provided in Section 6.2.3, Net Losses shall be allocated to each Member to the extent of the aggregate amount of Net Profits previously allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 6.1.2, with respect to which Net Losses have not been previously allocated pursuant to this subsection.

          6.2.3 Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. An allocation of Net Losses under Section 6.2.1 or Section 6.2.2 hereof shall not be made to the extent it would create or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for a Member or Members at the end of any Fiscal Year. Any Net Losses not allocated because of the preceding sentence shall be allocated to the other Member or Members in proportion to such Member’s or Members’ respective Percentage Interests; provided, however, that to the extent such allocation would create or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for another Member or Members at the end of any Fiscal Year, such allocation shall be made to the remaining Member or Members in proportion to the respective Percentage Interests of such Member or Members.

     6.3 Special Allocations.

          6.3.1 Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt or other liability to

25


 

which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) and Regulations Section 1.704-1(b).

          6.3.2 Nonrecourse Deductions Referable to Liabilities Owed to Non-Members. Any Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year and any other deductions or losses for any Fiscal Year referable to a liability owed by the Company to a Person other than a Member to the extent that no Member bears the economic risk of loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests.

          6.3.3 Member Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4), notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VI, if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt during any Fiscal Year, each Member who has a share of the Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt (which share shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5)) 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 portion of such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.3.3 is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement contained in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

          6.3.4 Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VI, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Fiscal Year, each Member 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 the portion of such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain which share of such net decrease shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(2). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.3.4 is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement contained in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

          6.3.5 Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5), or (6) or any other event creates an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to each such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Member as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.3.5 shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Article VI have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.3.5 were not in the Agreement.

26


 

          6.3.6 Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the Basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to 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 gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m).

          6.3.7 Priority Return Allocations. If any Priority Return distributions have been made pursuant to Sections 6.8.1(a) or 9.5(a) hereof, all or a portion of the remaining items of Company income and, to the extent income is insufficient, gain shall be specially allocated to each Member in proportion to and to the extent of the excess, if any, of (i) the cumulative Priority Return distributions each such Member has received pursuant to Sections 6.8.1(a) and 9.5(a) hereof from the commencement of the Company to a date thirty (30) days after the end of such Fiscal Year, over (ii) the cumulative income and gain allocated to such Member pursuant to this Section 6.3.7 for all prior Fiscal Years. If, in addition to items of income, items of gain are to be allocated pursuant to the foregoing sentence and the Company has items of both short-term capital gain and long-term capital gain, all of the Company’s items of short-term capital gain shall be allocated before any items of long-term capital gain are allocated.

          6.3.8 Certain Allocations After January 1, 2005. For any Fiscal Year ending after January 1, 2005, provided that the Put Closing Date has not occurred prior to the end of such Fiscal Year, items of Company income from operations shall be specially allocated to the Class A Members to the extent provided by this Section 6.3.8. First, the allocation provisions in this Article VI, excluding the provisions of Section 6.4 calling for offsetting special allocations to be made as a result of the operation of this Section 6.3.8, shall be applied tentatively and with the following hypothetical modification: with respect to each Company asset (to the extent that as of the Operative Date its Gross Asset Value differed from its Basis), the tax allocations referable to the allocation of items of Depreciation shall be hypothetically made using the Remedial Method so as to eliminate distortions caused by the ceiling rule described in Regulations Section 1.704-3(b)(1), without changing the amount of the items of Depreciation (as determined under the rules of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g)(3)) that are allocated under this Article VI and that are attributable to such asset. Such tentative application of the allocation provisions shall result in a calculation of the amount of the taxable income or loss (“Tentative Taxable Income” or “Tentative Tax Loss,” respectively) that would be allocated to each Class B Member by the Company if such tentative application, with the hypothetical modification described above, were final. Next, in lieu of the hypothetical modification described above, items of income from operations shall be specially allocated to the Class A Members, in proportion to the number of Units held by them, to the extent necessary to cause the amount of the taxable income or loss allocated to each Class B Member by the Company (using the Traditional Method with respect to each Company asset to the extent that as of the Operative Date its Gross Asset Value differed from its Basis) to be equal, or as nearly equal as possible, to that Member’s Tentative Taxable Income or Tentative Tax Loss, whichever is applicable. For purposes of this Section 6.3.8, the Company’s taxable income or loss, as determined in accordance with Code Section 703(a), shall include all items of income, gain, loss, or deduction required to be stated separately pursuant to Code Section 703(a)(1).

27


 

     6.4 Curative Allocations.

          6.4.1 The allocations set forth in Sections 6.2.3 and 6.3 (other than Sections 6.3.7 and 6.3.8) hereof (collectively, the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Regulations. The allocations set forth in Section 6.3.8 are intended to effectuate certain agreements of the Members (such allocations are referred to for purposes of this Section 6.4.1 as the “Post-Year 2005 Allocations”). It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, the Regulatory Allocations and the Post-Year 2005 Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction pursuant to this Section 6.4.1. Therefore, subject to Section 6.4.2 but notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VI (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Manager shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, a Member’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Member would have had (the “Target Capital Account”) if the Regulatory Allocations and the Post-Year 2005 Allocations were not part of this Agreement and all Company items were allocated pursuant to Sections 6.1.1, 6.1.2, 6.2.1, 6.2.2, and 6.3.7. In exercising its discretion under this Section 6.4.1, the Manager shall take into account any future Regulatory Allocations under Sections 6.3.3 and 6.3.4 that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made under Sections 6.3.1 and 6.3.2.

          6.4.2 The Manager shall implement the offsetting special allocations in Section 6.4.1 in such a manner that:

               (a) For any Fiscal Year covered by Section 6.3.8, the special allocations of items of deductions or loss to be made under Section 6.4.1 to the Class A Members to offset the allocations arising as a result of the operation of Section 6.3.8 shall be limited in amount and made in a manner such that the amount of the tax loss or deductions allocated to any Class A Member in respect of such offsetting special allocations shall be equal to zero; provided, however, that in the event of the dissolution of the Company or the occurrence of any other event with respect to which the distribution rights of the Class A Members or the Class B Members are determined in whole or in part by reference to their Capital Account balances, the foregoing limitations shall apply only to the extent consistent with attaining the Target Capital Accounts and such Capital Account adjustments shall be made before any distributions in connection with such events are made.

               (b) For purposes of Sections 6.4.2(a), the tax loss or deductions allocated in respect of an offsetting special allocation refers to the tax loss or deductions that are allocated in respect thereof for the same Fiscal Year for which such offsetting special allocation is made.

     6.5 Tax Allocations

          6.5.1 Code Section 704(c) Allocations. The allocations specified in this Agreement shall govern the allocation of items to the Members for Code Section 704(b) book purposes, and the allocation of items to the Members for tax purposes shall be in

28


 

accordance with such book allocations, except that solely for tax purposes and notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VI:

               (a) In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall be allocated among the Members (including Members who succeed to the Membership Interest of any other Members or former members of the Company) so as to take account of any variation between the Basis of such property to the Company and its initial Gross Asset Value.

               (b) In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to 1.34.2, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the Basis of such asset and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder.

               (c) The allocations described in (a) and (b) above shall be made in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-3 using the Traditional Method

          6.5.2 Tax Credits. Tax credits, if any, shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

          6.5.3 Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities. To the extent that the Company’s “excess nonrecourse liabilities” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3) are allocated among the Members in accordance with their interests in Company profits, the Members’ interests in Company profits are, solely for purposes of making such allocation, in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

     6.6 Other Allocation Rules.

          6.6.1 Allocation of Items Included in Net Profits and Net Losses. Whenever a proportionate part of the Net Profits or Net Losses is allocated to a Member, every item of income, gain, loss, or deduction entering into the computation of such Net Profits or Net Losses shall be credited or charged, as the case may be, to such Member in the same proportion.

          6.6.2 Allocations in Respect of a Transferred Membership Interest. If any Membership Interest is transferred, or is increased or decreased by reason of the admission of a new Member or otherwise, during any Allocation Period of the Company, (i) such transfer of or increase or decrease in Membership Interest shall be deemed to have occurred as of the end of the day on which such transfer or increase or decrease occurs, and (ii) each item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of the Company for such Allocation Period shall be allocated among the Members, as determined by the Manager in accordance with any method permitted by Code Section 706(d) and the Regulations promulgated thereunder in order to take into account the Members’ varying interests in the Company during such Allocation Period.

     6.7 Obligations of Members to Report Consistently. The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Article VI and hereby agree to

29


 

be bound by the provisions of this Article VI in reporting their shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

     6.8 Distributions by the Company to Members.

          6.8.1 In General. Prior to the occurrence of any event specified in Section 9.1, and subject to applicable law and any limitations contained elsewhere in this Agreement, the Manager shall distribute the Company’s Available Cash, if any, not later than the thirtieth (30th) day after the end of each calendar year in the following order and priority:

               (a) First, to Members having accrued and unpaid Priority Return as of the last day of the calendar quarter preceding the date on which such distribution is made, pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts of such accrued and unpaid Priority Return, until each such Member shall have received an amount equal to such Member’s accrued and unpaid Priority Return as of the last day of such preceding calendar quarter;

               (b) Second, to Members pro rata in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

          6.8.2 Advances or Drawings. Distributions of money and property shall be treated as advances or drawings of money or property against a Member’s distributive share of income and as current distributions made on the last day of the Company’s taxable year with respect to such Member.

          6.8.3 Distributees; Liability for Distributions. All distributions made pursuant to this Section 6.8 shall be made only to the Persons who, according to the books and records of the Company, hold the Membership Interests in respect of which such distributions are made on the actual date of distribution. Neither the Company nor any Member, Manager, or officer shall incur any liability for making distributions in accordance with this Section 6.8.

     6.9 Form of Distributions. A Member, regardless of the nature of the Member’s Capital Contributions, has no right to demand and receive any distribution from the Company in any form other than money. No Member may be compelled to accept from the Company a distribution of any asset in kind in lieu of a proportionate distribution of money being made to other Members.

     6.10 Return of Distributions. Except for distributions made in violation of the Act or this Agreement, or as otherwise required by law, no Member shall be obligated to return any distribution to the Company or pay the amount of any distribution for the account of the Company or to any creditor of the Company. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, a Member who receives a distribution from the Company shall have no liability to return any portion of such distribution after the expiration of three (3) years from the date of the distribution pursuant to Section 18-607(c) of the Act.

     6.11 Limitation on Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to make a distribution to any Member on

30


 

account of such Member’s interest in the Company if such distribution would violate Section 18-607 of the Act or other applicable law.

     6.12 Withholding. Any tax required to be withheld with respect to any Member under Section 1446 or other provisions of the Code, or under the law of any state or other jurisdiction, shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement (i) as a distribution of cash to be charged against current or future distributions to which such Member would otherwise have been entitled, or (ii) if determined by the Manager in writing, as a demand loan to such Member bearing interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest then announced by The Bank of New York as its prime commercial lending rate plus two hundred (200) basis points.

ARTICLE IX

DISSOLUTION AND WINDING UP

     9.1 Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved, its assets shall be disposed of, and its affairs shall be wound up on the first to occur of the following:

               (a) The entry of a decree of judicial dissolution pursuant to Section 18-802 of the Act; or

               (b) The Approval of the Members; provided, however, that the Company will not be dissolved or liquidated unless (x) such dissolution or liquidation can be accomplished in a manner that does not cause aggregate adverse tax or economic consequences to TCI Bresnan and TCID (taking into account any compensation to be provided to such entities) in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) or (y) the Company receives the written consent of such adversely affected entity.

     9.2 Winding Up. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in Section 9.1, the Company shall continue solely for the purpose of winding up its affairs in an orderly manner, liquidating its assets, and satisfying the claims of its creditors. The Manager shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and liquidation of the Company, shall take full account of the assets and liabilities of the Company, shall either cause its assets to be sold to any Person or distributed to a Member, and if sold, as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair market value thereof, shall cause the proceeds therefrom, to the extent sufficient therefor, to be applied and distributed as provided in Section 9.5 herein. The Person(s) winding up the affairs of the Company shall give written notice of the commencement of winding up by mail to all known creditors and claimants whose addresses appear on the records of the Company. All actions and decisions required to be taken or made by such Person(s) under this Agreement shall be taken or made only with the consent of all such Person(s).

     9.3 Distributions in Kind. Any non-cash asset distributed to one or more Members shall first be valued at its fair market value to determine the gain or loss that would have been included in the amounts allocated pursuant to Article VI if such asset were sold for such value. Such gain or loss shall then be allocated pursuant to Article VI, and the Members’ Capital Accounts shall be adjusted to reflect such allocations. The amount distributed and charged to the Capital Account of each Member receiving an interest in such distributed asset shall be the fair market value of such interest (net of any liability secured by such asset that such Member assumes or takes subject to). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.3, the Company shall not make distributions of non-cash assets to any Member who objects.

     9.4 Determination of Fair Market Value. For purposes of Section 9.2 and 9.3, the fair market value of each asset of the Company shall be determined by the Manager or, if a Member requests, by an independent, third-party appraiser experienced in the valuation of

35


 

businesses such as the Company’s business, selected in good faith by the Members. The Company shall bear the costs of the appraisal.

     9.5 Order of Distributions Upon Liquidation. After determining that all known debts and liabilities of the Company in the process of winding up, including without limitation debts and liabilities to Members who are creditors of the Company, have been paid or adequately provided for, the remaining assets shall be distributed to the Members in the following order:

               (a) First, to Members having accrued and unpaid Priority Return as of the date of distribution, pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts of accrued and unpaid Priority Return, until each such Member shall have received an amount equal to such Member’s accrued and unpaid Priority Return as of such date; provided, however, that no distribution shall be made pursuant to this Section 9.5(a) that creates or increases a Capital Account deficit for any Member which exceeds such Member’s obligation deemed and actual to restore such deficit, determined as follows: Distributions shall first be determined tentatively pursuant to this Section 9.5(a) without regard to the Members’ Capital Accounts, and then the allocation provisions of Article VI shall be applied tentatively as if such tentative distributions had been made. If any Member shall thereby have a deficit Capital Account which exceeds his obligation (deemed or actual) to restore such deficit, the actual distribution to such Member pursuant to this Section 9.5(a) shall be equal to the tentative distribution to such Member less the amount of the excess to such Member; and

               (b) Second, to Members in accordance with their positive Capital Account balances, after taking into account income and loss allocations for the Company’s taxable year during which liquidation occurs.

     Such liquidating distributions shall be made by the end of the Company’s taxable year in which the Company is liquidated or, if later, within ninety (90) days after the date of such liquidation.

     9.6 Limitations on Payments Made in Dissolution. Each Member shall be entitled to look solely to the assets of the Company for the return of such Member’s positive Capital Account balance. Notwithstanding that the assets of the Company remaining after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities, and obligations of the Company may be insufficient to return the Capital Contributions or share of Net Profits reflected in such Member’s positive Capital Account balance, a Member shall have no recourse against the Company or any other Member.

     9.7 Certificate of Cancellation. Upon completion of the winding up of the affairs of the Company, the Manager, or other Person(s) winding up the affairs of the Company, shall cause to be filed in the office of, and on a form prescribed by, the Delaware Secretary of State, a certificate of cancellation.

     9.8 Termination. The Company shall terminate when all of the assets of the Company have been distributed in the manner provided for in this Article IX, and the certificate of cancellation is filed in accordance with Section 9.7.

36


 

     9.9 No Action for Dissolution. Except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, a Member shall not take any voluntary action that directly causes a dissolution of the Company.
