All actions required to be taken by or on behalf of each Member to authorize it to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement have been taken, and this Agreement constitutes the valid and binding obligation of such Member, enforceable against such Member in accordance with its terms, except as the same may be affected by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws, or by legal or equitable principles relating to or limiting the rights of contracting parties generally.

(c)     Compliance with Laws and Other Instruments. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation by each Member of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby in the manner contemplated hereby and thereby do not and will not conflict with, or result in a breach of any terms of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or instrument or any statute, law, rule or regulation, or any judgment, decree, writ, injunction, order or award of any arbitrator, court or governmental authority which is applicable to such Member or by which such Member or any material portion of its properties is bound, except for conflicts, breaches and defaults that, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a

Section 6.3     Certain Members. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained     herein, the representations and warranties under this Article VI shall be deemed not to be made to Members not executing this Agreement or a joinder agreement to this Agreement.

Section 7.1     Capital Accounts. A separate capital account (a “Capital Account”) shall be established and shall be maintained for each Member in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) and this Article VII shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such regulations. The balance in each Member’s Capital Account at the Effective Time is set forth on Schedule A.

Section 7.2     Adjustments to the Capital Accounts. As of the end of each Accounting Period, the balance in each Member’s Capital Account shall be adjusted by (i) increasing such balance by (A) such Member’s allocable share of Net Profit (allocated in accordance with Section 8.1) and (B) the amount of cash and the Fair Market Value of any property (as of the date of the contribution thereof and net of any liabilities encumbering such property) contributed to the Company by such Member during such Accounting Period, if any, and (ii) decreasing such balance by (A) the amount of cash and the Fair Market Value of any property (as of the date of the distribution thereof and net of any liabilities encumbering such property) distributed to such Member during such Accounting Period and (B) such Member’s allocable share of Net Loss (allocated in accordance with Section 8.1). Each Member’s Capital Account shall be further adjusted with respect to any special allocations pursuant to Section 8.2. The Company may adjust the Capital Accounts of its Members, in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), to reflect revaluations (including any unrealized income, gain or loss) of the Company’s property (including intangible assets such as goodwill), whenever it issues additional Interests, or whenever the adjustments would otherwise be permitted under such Treasury Regulations. In the event that the Capital Accounts of the Members are so adjusted, (i) the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) for allocations of depreciation, depletion, amortization and gain or loss, as computed for book purposes, with respect to such property as set forth in clause (e)(i) of the definition of “Net Profits” and “Net Losses” in Section 1.1, and (ii) 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 so as to take account of the variation between the adjusted tax basis and book value of such property in the same manner as under Section 704(c) of the Code and Section 8.4(a) of this Agreement. The Capital Accounts shall be maintained for the sole purpose of allocating items of income, gain, loss and deductions among the Members and shall have no effect on the amount of any distributions to any Member in liquidation or otherwise. The provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2 and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations, and the Company shall be permitted to adjust the Capital Accounts of the Members in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations. Without limiting the other rights and duties of a transferee of an Interest pursuant to this Agreement, in the event of a permitted sale or exchange of an Interest, (i) the Capital Account of the transferor will become the Capital Account of the transferee to the extent it relates to the transferred Interest in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv), and (ii) the transferee will be treated as the

transferor for purposes of allocations and distributions pursuant to Articles VIII, IX and XIII to the extent that such allocations and distributions relate to the transferred Interest.

Section 7.3     Capital Contributions. Each Member that has made (or, with respect to the Units purchased from the Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, has been deemed to make, or with respect to the Units purchased from the Original Members, was made by those from whom such Member acquired its Units) a Capital Contribution on or prior to the effective date of the First Amended and Restated Agreement is listed on Schedule A with the amount of such Capital Contribution set forth opposite each Member’s name. Any contributions of property to the Company after such effective date shall be valued at their Fair Market Value.

Section 7.4    Additional Capital Contributions.

(a)     The Board may request that each Member contribute additional capital to the Company from time to time to the extent approved pursuant to Section 5.1(a)(iii)(B) (a “Capital Call”), in each case, in an amount equal, for each Member, to its Percentage Interest of the total Capital Call (for each Member, its “Capital Call Amount”). Upon the Board’s determination to make a Capital Call, the Company shall deliver written notice to each Member (each a “Capital Call Notice”), stating such Member’s Capital Call Amount, the wire transfer instructions for transfer of its Capital Call Amount, the date by which its Capital Call Amount must be received (which shall in no event be earlier than fifteen (15) days following the date of the Capital Call Notice) and the Equity Value as of the date of the Capital Call. Each Member will have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in such Capital Call by delivering notice to the Company of its election to do so, which notice shall be delivered no later than ten (10) Business Days following receipt of the Capital Call Notice. Any Member electing to participate shall contribute its Capital Call Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the corresponding Capital Call Notice, on or before the date stated in such Capital Call Notice.

(b)    If for any reason any Member elects not to or fails to timely contribute its full Capital Call Amount pursuant to a Capital Call Notice (such Member, a “Non-Contributing Member”), the Company shall notify the other Member (the “Contributing Member”) of such election or failure and state the amount that the Non-Contributing Member elected not to or failed to contribute (the “Makeup Contribution Amount”). If any Member is a Non-Contributing Member with respect to a Capital Call, then the Contributing Member may elect to (i) receive the return of any unmatched Capital Contribution made by it in respect of such Capital Call, (ii) convert any unmatched Capital Contribution made by it in respect of such Capital Call into a loan to the Company on the terms set forth in Section 7.4(c) (any such loan, a “Priority Loan”), or (iii) contribute to the Company the Makeup Contribution Amount or any portion thereof in addition to the Contributing Member’s Capital Call Amount contributed pursuant to the Capital Call Notice for such Capital Call, in which case the provisions of Section 7.4(d) shall apply to the Makeup Contribution Amount or portion thereof so contributed.

(c)     All Priority Loans shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at an interest rate equal to the lesser of (i) eight percent (8%) per annum, or (ii) the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. All Priority Loans shall compound annually to the extent unpaid. Accrued interest on all amounts advanced under a Priority Loan shall be payable on each annual anniversary of the date such amounts are advanced. All Priority Loans shall be repaid in full prior to any distributions of Distributable Amounts to the Members under Article IX. In any event, each Priority Loan shall in all events mature five (5) years after the date it is funded. If more than one Priority Loan is outstanding, then repayment of all Priority Loans shall be made in the reverse order in which such Priority Loans were made (e.g., the most recent Priority Loan shall be repaid prior to repayment of the next most recent Priority Loan). Payments of Priority Loans shall be applied first to payment of outstanding interest and then to principal until all amounts due thereunder have been paid in full. Priority Loans shall be pre-payable, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, without penalty. Priority Loans shall be obligations of the Company and no Member shall be liable for repayment of any Priority Loan or any interest thereon.

(d)     If the Contributing Member has elected to proceed under clause (iii) of the second sentence of Section 7.4(b), then notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, upon the Contributing Member’s contribution to the Company of the Makeup Contribution Amount or any portion thereof in addition to the Contributing Member’s Capital Call Amount contributed pursuant to the Capital Call Notice for such Capital Call, the Company shall issue to the Contributing Member that number of additional Units equal to the quotient of (i) the Makeup Contribution Amount (or the portion thereof, if applicable) contributed by the Contributing Member in respect of the Non-Contributing Member’s failure or election not to contribute in accordance with such Capital Call, divided by (b) the Equity Value as of the Capital Call date stated in the Capital Call Notice

(e)     Except as provided in Section 7.4(d), no additional Units shall be issued in connection with any contributions of additional capital to the Company by or on behalf of the Members pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.4.

(f)    Unless a Member elects to contribute its Capital Call Amount pursuant to a Capital Call Notice, no Member shall be required to make any additional Capital Contributions to the Company.

(g)     The provisions of this Section 7.4 are intended solely to benefit the Members and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be construed as conferring any benefit upon any creditor of the Company (and no such creditor shall be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement), and no Member shall have any duty or obligation to any creditor of the Company to make any additional capital contributions or to cause the Board to consent to the making of additional capital contributions.

Section 7.5     Negative Capital Accounts. Except as required by law, no Member shall be required to make up a negative balance in its Capital Account, whether to the Company or any other Member or for the benefit of any creditor of the Company.

Section 8.1    Book Allocations of Net Profit and Net Loss.

(a)     Subject to, and after applying, Section 8.2, and subject to the terms of any other agreement of the Members, Net Profit and Net Loss, as the case may be (and to the extent determined by the Board to be necessary and appropriate to achieve the resulting Economic Capital Account balances described in this Section 8.1(a) but without causing (by virtue thereof) any Interest to be construed as a guaranteed payment under Code Section 707, any allocable items of gross income, gain, loss and expense includable in the computation of Net Profits and Net Loss), shall be allocated among the Members in such ratio or ratios as may be required to cause the balances of the Members’ Economic Capital Accounts to equal, as nearly as possible, their Target Balances, consistent with the provisions of Section 8.1(b).

(b)     The allocation provisions contained in this Article VIII are intended to comply with Code Sections 704(b) and 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith.

Section 8.2    Special Book Allocations.

(a)     Qualified Income Offset. If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) and such adjustment, allocation or distribution causes or increases a deficit in such Member’s Economic Capital Account (a “Deficit”), items of gross income and gain for such Accounting Period and each subsequent Accounting Period shall be specifically allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, the Deficit of such Member as quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 8.2(a) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Article VIII have been tentatively made as if this Section 8.2(a) were not in this Agreement. This Section 8.2(a) is intended to comply with the qualified income offset provision of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(b)     Partnership Minimum Gain. Except as otherwise provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Accounting Period, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such Accounting Period in proportion to, and to the extent of, an amount equal to the portion of such Member’s share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). This Section 8.2(b) is intended to comply with the chargeback of items of income and gain requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c)     Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their Units. For purposes of this Section 8.2(c), the term “Nonrecourse Deductions” has the meaning set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(1).

(d)     Member Nonrecourse Debt. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article VIII to the extent required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i), any items of income, gain, deduction and loss of the Company that are attributable to a nonrecourse debt of the Company that constitutes Member Nonrecourse Debt (including chargebacks of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, as defined below) shall be allocated in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). This Section 8.2(d) is intended to satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) (including the partner nonrecourse debt chargeback requirements) and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith.

(e)     Gross Income Allocation. If any Member has a negative Economic Capital Account at the end of any Fiscal Year, such Member shall be allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such deficit as quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 8.2(e) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a negative Economic Capital Account after all other allocations provided for in this Section 8.2 (other than Section 8.2(a)) have been tentatively made as if this Section 8.2(e) were not in this Agreement.

Section 8.3     Transfer of Interests. In the event of a Transfer of Interests in the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, subject to compliance with Code Section 706 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee in accordance with an interim closing of the books as of the close of the date of the Transfer to the extent consistent with Code Sections 706(d)(2) and 706(d)(3), or pursuant to such other method agreed to by the transferor and the transferee and reasonably acceptable to the Tax Matters Member.

Section 8.4     Certain Tax Matters.

(a)     Tax Allocations. The income, gains, losses, credits and deductions recognized by the Company shall be allocated among the Members, for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes, to the extent permitted under the Code and the Treasury Regulations, in the same manner that each such item is allocated to the Members’ Capital Accounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may adjust such allocations so long as such adjusted allocations have substantial economic effect or are in accordance with the Members’ Interests, in each case within the meaning of the Code and the Treasury Regulations. In accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property of the Company that is reflected in the Capital Accounts at a book value that is different from its adjusted basis for tax purposes (whether due to contribution or revaluation) shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its fair market value at the time of contribution or revaluation. Section 704(c) of the Code shall be administered with respect to property contributed to the Company by a Member or any revaluation due to the capital contributions of

either Member in accordance with the remedial method of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(d). All other matters concerning allocations for U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. income tax purposes, including Code Section 704(c) allocation methods and other accounting procedures, not expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement shall be determined by the Board.

(b)     Member Notification Requirements. No Member shall knowingly assert a position in respect of matters relating to the Company’s income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit under the Code, which such Member knows to be inconsistent with the tax returns prepared with respect to the Company or otherwise to be materially adversely prejudicial to the Company, unless in either case (i) such position is consistent with the provisions of this Agreement, and (ii) such Member provides written notice thereof to the Company at least fifteen (15) days before taking such position. The cost of any audits or adjustments of a Member’s tax return shall be borne solely by the affected Member. Each Member shall promptly upon request furnish to the Company any information that the Company may reasonably request in connection with any election or contemplated election or adjustment under Section 734, 743 or 754 of the Code or with filing the tax returns of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof.

Section 9.1     Distributions Generally.

(a)     This Section provides for the distribution of certain amounts to the Members. The term “Distributable Amount” means (A) upon the occurrence of an Exit Event, all amounts held by the Company immediately following such Exit Event reduced by existing liabilities and expenses of the Company and a reasonable reserve for future liabilities and expenses; and (B) at any other time determined by the Board, the then applicable undistributed Target Distribution or such other amounts approved pursuant to Section 5.1(a)(iii)(C). Subject to Section 7.4(c) and the other provisions of this Section 9.1, all Distributable Amounts shall be distributed, in connection with the occurrence of an Exit Event, concurrently with or promptly following the consummation of such Exit Event, and in all other cases, at least annually, at such time as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, to the Members on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

(b)      In the event that an Exit Event is structured as a sale of Interests by the Members, rather than a distribution of proceeds by the Company, the purchase agreement governing such sale will have provisions therein that replicate, to the greatest extent possible, the economic result which would have been attained under this Article IX had the Exit Event been structured as a sale of the Company’s assets and a distribution of proceeds thereof to the Members (or modifications will be made to this Agreement to accomplish this result).

Section 9.2     Distributions In Kind. In the event of a distribution of Company property, such property shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to have been sold at its Fair Market Value and the proceeds of such sale shall be deemed to have been distributed to the Members.

Section 9.3     No Withdrawal of Capital. Except as otherwise expressly provided in Article XIII or this Article IX, no Member shall have the right to withdraw capital from the Company or to receive any distribution or return of such Member’s Capital Contributions.

Section 9.4     Withholding; Payment of Member Taxes by the Company.

(a)     Each Member shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify and hold harmless each Person who is or who is deemed to be the responsible withholding agent for U.S. federal, state or local income tax purposes against all claims, liabilities and expenses of whatever nature (but, in each case, excluding any penalties and accrued interest that results from such Person’s fraud, willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence) solely relating to such Person’s obligation to withhold and to pay over any U.S. federal, state, or local income taxes imposed on such Member and the employee’s share of social security, Medicare, and federal unemployment taxes imposed on such Member.

(b)     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX, (i) each Member hereby authorizes the Company to withhold and to pay over, or otherwise pay, any withholding or other taxes payable by the Company or any of its Affiliates with respect to such Member or as a result of such Member’s participation in the Company (including where required by the Revised Partnership Audit Provisions) and (ii) if and to the extent that the Company shall be required to withhold or pay any such taxes (including any amounts withheld from amounts payable to the Company to the extent attributable, in the judgment of the Board, to such Member’s Interest), such Member shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have received a payment from the Company as of the time such withholding or tax is required to be paid, which payment shall be deemed to be a distribution with respect to such Member’s Interest to the extent that the Member (or any successor to such Member’s Interest) is then entitled to receive a distribution. To the extent that the aggregate of such payments to a Member for any period exceeds the distributions to which such Member is entitled for such period, such Member shall make a prompt payment to the Company of such amount.

(c)     If the Company makes a distribution in kind and such distribution is subject to withholding or other taxes payable by the Company on behalf of any Member, such Member shall make a prompt payment to the Company of the amount of such withholding or other taxes by wire transfer.

Section 9.5    Restrictions on Distributions.

(a)     The Company shall not make a distribution of property in kind to a Member which results in the recognition of taxable income to a Member under Section 704(c)(1)(B) of the Code or Section 737(a) of the Code without the prior written consent of the Member who would be required to recognize such taxable income as a result thereof.

(b)     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 7-80-606 of the Colorado Act or other applicable law.

Section 9.6    Offset. Notwithstanding anything in this Article IX to the contrary, to the extent there has been a final judicial determination under the Purchase Agreement that a Member (the “Owing Member”) (a) owes any amount to the Company in respect of any Loss incurred by the Company, or (b) owes any amount to the other Member in respect of any Loss incurred by such other Member, and such amount has remained outstanding for sixty (60) days, then upon the request of the other Member, the Company shall set aside any distribution that would otherwise be made to the Owing Member under this Agreement and, in the case of (b), deliver such set aside amount to the other Member, until all such amounts owed by the Owing Member to the Company or the other Member, as applicable, have been reduced to zero (giving effect to any other payments made by the Owing Member to the Company or the other Member, as applicable).

Section 10.1    Books and Records; Reports.

(a)     At all times during the continuance of the Company, the Company shall maintain, at its principal place of business, separate books of account for the Company and its Subsidiaries that shall show a true and accurate record of all costs and expenses incurred, all charges made, all credits made and received and all income derived in connection with the operation of the Company’s business in accordance with accounting principles approved by the Board from time to time. Such books of account, together with a copy of this Agreement and the Articles and such other books and records as may be required by the Colorado Act, shall at all times be maintained at the principal place of business of the Company and shall be open to inspection and examination at reasonable times by each Member and its duly authorized representative for any purpose reasonably related to such Member’s Interest.

(b)     Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter, the Company shall furnish to each Member a copy of the consolidated income statement, cash flow statement and the balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries for such quarter. Within seventy-five (75) days after the close of each calendar year, the Manager shall furnish to each Member a copy of the consolidated income and loss statement, cash flow statement, and the balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries for such calendar year.

Section 10.2    Filings of Returns and Other Writings; Tax Matters Member.

(a)     The Company shall timely file all Company tax returns and all other tax filings required by any governmental authority having jurisdiction to require such tax filing. The Company shall furnish to each Member an estimated U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form 1065, Schedule K-1 with respect to such Member no later than March 31st following each Tax Year and a final U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form 1065, Schedule K-1 with respect to such Member no later than September 15th following each Tax Year and will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Members with the information necessary for each Member to calculate its obligation to make estimated payments of income taxes related to the ownership of such Member’s Units on a timely basis.

(b)     (i) DMC shall be designated as the “partnership representative” (as defined in Section 6223(a) of the Code) of the Company. The partnership representative, as so designated, shall each be referred to herein as the “Tax Matters Member.”

(i)     Each Member hereby consents to such designations and agrees that upon the request of the Tax Matters Member, such Member will execute, certify, acknowledge, deliver, swear to, file and record at the appropriate public offices such documents as may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such consent

     (ii)     Any Member entering into a settlement agreement with the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) that concerns a Company item shall notify the other Members of such settlement agreement and its terms within fifteen days after the date thereof.

(iii)     The Tax Matters Member shall give prompt notice to the Members upon receipt of written notice that the IRS or other taxing authority intends to examine any income tax return, or records or books of the Company. During any Company income tax audit or other income tax controversy with any governmental authority, the Tax Matters Member shall keep the Members informed of all material facts and developments on a reasonably prompt basis (including, without limitation, whether it intends to file for judicial review with respect to any final administrative adjustment relating to the Company and including providing copies of all documents received by the Tax Matters Member in its capacity as such from a taxing authority).

(iv)     The Tax Matters Member shall be supervised by, and serve at the direction of, the Board. The Tax Matters Member, as directed by the Board, has the power to represent and bind the Company in each audit conducted by any taxing authority, including without limitation the power and authority, (i) to make an election under Section 6226 of the Code (as amended by the Revised Partnership Audit Provisions) and any Treasury Regulations promulgated in accordance therewith and (ii) to take, and to cause the Company to take, all actions necessary or convenient to give effect to such an election. Each Member agrees to take all actions that the Tax Matters Member determines are necessary in connection with an audit, including without limitation (A) providing any information in such Member’s possession reasonably requested in connection with any tax audit or related proceeding (which information may be freely disclosed to the IRS or other relevant taxing authorities), (B) paying all liabilities attributable to such Member as the result of an election under Section 6226 of the Code (as amended by the Revised Partnership Audit Provisions), and (C) filing any amended returns that the Tax Matters Member determines to be necessary or appropriate to reduce an imputed underpayment under Section 6225(c) of the Code (as amended by the Revised Partnership Audit Provisions) and paying all liabilities associated with such an amended return. The Tax Matters Member may employ tax counsel to represent the Company in connection with any audit or investigation of the Company by the IRS and in connection with all subsequent administrative and judicial proceedings arising out of such audit.

(c)     Promptly following the written request of the Tax Matters Member, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, reimburse and indemnify the Tax Matters Member for all reasonable expenses, including reasonable legal and accounting

fees, claims, liabilities, losses and damages incurred by the Tax Matters Member, in its capacity as such, in connection with any administrative or judicial proceeding with respect to the tax liability of the Members in general and not with respect to the individual tax liability of the Tax Matters Member in its capacity as a Member, except to the extent arising from the bad faith, gross negligence, willful violation of law, fraud or breach of this Agreement by such Tax Matters Member.

(d)     The provisions of this Section 10.2 shall survive the termination of the Company or the termination of any Member’s Interest and shall remain binding on the Members for as long a period of time as is necessary to resolve with the IRS or any other taxing authority any and all matters regarding the taxation of the Company or the Members.

If the DMC Members (or any of its direct or indirect owners) are obligated to pay taxes attributable to the Company’s assets or operations as a result of the DMC Members and the Company being treated as members of a combined, consolidated, unitary or other group of Entities, then the Company shall reimburse the DMC Members for the amount of taxes paid that are attributable to the Company, which amount shall equal the amount of taxes the Company would pay if it were not included in any combined, consolidated, unitary or other group but instead were taxed on a stand-alone basis. Any amount paid to the DMC Members pursuant to this Section 10.4 shall be treated as a reimbursement for amounts paid on behalf of the Company and shall not be treated as a distribution to the DMC Members for purposes of Section 9.1 (including pursuant to Section 13.2). Until paid, the amount due from the Company pursuant hereto shall bear interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum.

Section 11.1    Liability. Except as otherwise provided by the Colorado Act, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, and no Covered Person shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company solely by reason of being a Covered Person.

Section 11.2    Exculpation. No Covered Person shall be liable to the Company or any other Covered Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Covered Person by this Agreement, except that a Covered Person shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Covered Person’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or willful breach of this Agreement.

Section 11.3    Fiduciary Duty. Any duties (including fiduciary duties) of a Covered Person to the Company or to any other Covered Person that would otherwise apply at law or in equity are hereby eliminated to the fullest extent permitted under the Colorado Act and any other applicable law; provided that (a) the foregoing shall not eliminate the obligation of each Covered Person to act in compliance with the express terms of this Agreement and (b) the foregoing shall not be deemed to eliminate the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing. A Covered Person acting under this Agreement shall not be liable to the Company or to any other Covered Person for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a Covered Person shall be indemnified, held harmless and defended by the Company from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, liabilities (whether joint or several), expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines and other amounts paid in settlement incurred or suffered by such Covered Person, as a party or otherwise, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and whether formal or informal, by reason of the Covered Person’s status as a current or former Director, Member, Officer, or Tax Matters Member regardless of whether the Covered Person retains such status at the time any such loss, damage, claim, liability, expense, judgment, fine or other amount paid in settlement is incurred or suffered or by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Covered Person by this Agreement, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, where such Covered Person had no reasonable cause to believe that such conduct was unlawful, except that no Covered Person shall be entitled to be indemnified, held harmless or defended by the Company in respect of any loss, damage, claim, liability, expense, judgment, fine or other amount paid in settlement incurred or suffered by such Covered Person by reason of such Covered Person’s or any Related Party of such Covered Person’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or willful breach of this Agreement with respect to such acts or omissions; provided that any indemnity under this Section 11.4 shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company assets only, and no Covered Person shall have any personal liability on account thereof. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that a Covered Person acted in a manner contrary to the standards specified in this Section 11.4. No Covered Person shall be denied indemnification, in whole or in part, under this Section 11.4 merely because the Covered Person had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies, if the transaction was not otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Agreement and the conduct of the Covered Person satisfies the conditions set forth in this Agreement. The indemnification provided by this Section 11.4 shall be in addition to any other rights to which any Covered Person may be entitled under any other agreement, as a matter of law or otherwise, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors, assigns and administrators of the Covered Person.

Section 11.5    Expenses. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, disbursements, fines and amounts paid in settlement) incurred by a Covered Person in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding relating to or arising out of their performance of their duties on behalf of the Company shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to the final disposition of

such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in Section 11.4; provided, however, that in such instance such Covered Person is not defending a claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding commenced against such Covered Person by the Company itself.

Section 11.6     Indemnification Procedures.

(a)     Within thirty (30) days after receipt by any Covered Person of notice of the commencement of any action that may result in a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.4, the Covered Person shall notify the Company in writing of such action; provided, however, that the omission so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of any liability for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.4 as to the particular item for which indemnification may then be sought (except to the extent that the failure to give notice shall have been materially prejudicial to the Company).

(b)    The Covered Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any action as to which indemnification may be sought under any provision of this Agreement and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Covered Person unless (i) the Company has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) the Company has failed to assume the defense thereof without reservation and employ counsel within a reasonable period of time after being given the notice required above, or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the Covered Person and the Company and the Covered Person shall have been advised by his, her or its counsel that representation of the Covered Persons and the Company by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct (whether or not such representation by the same counsel has been proposed) due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood, however, that the Company shall, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of only one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all the Covered Persons having actual or potential differing interests with the Company.

(c)     The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent, but if settled with such written consent, or if there is a final judgment against the Covered Person in any such action, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Covered Person to the extent provided above from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment.

Section 11.7    Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnity Insurance Coverage. The Company shall maintain, and shall cause its direct and indirect subsidiaries to maintain, directors’ and officers’ indemnity insurance coverage reasonably satisfactory to the Board.

Section 11.8    Severability; Survival. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if any portion of this Article shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify each Director or Officer and may

indemnify each employee or agent of the Company as to costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including an action by or in the right of the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article that shall not have been invalidated. The indemnification obligations set forth in this Article XI shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 12.1     Restrictions on Transfers of Interests. No Restricted Member may Transfer (including, without limitation, to any other Member, or by gift, or by operation of law or otherwise) any Interests or any direct or indirect beneficial ownership of any Interests; provided, that, subject in each case to Section 12.4, Interests may (or shall, as the case may be) be Transferred by the Restricted Members (a) pursuant to Section 12.2 (“Estate Planning Transfers; Transfers upon Death”), (b) in accordance with Section 12.5 (“Involuntary Transfers”), (c) pursuant to Section 12.8 (“Right of First Refusal and Drag-Along Right”), (d) pursuant to Section 12.9, in connection with the formation of Newco (as defined in Section 12.9(b)) in anticipation of an IPO, (e) pursuant to Section 12.10 (“Put/Call Rights”) and (f) pursuant to the prior written approval of the Board and the DMC Members in their sole and absolute discretion. The Restricted Members may not pledge, grant a security interest in or otherwise encumber or hypothecate (a “Hypothecation”) any portion of such Member’s Interest without the prior written approval of the Board and the DMC Members in their sole and absolute discretion.

Section 12.2    Estate Planning Transfers; Transfers upon Death. Interests held by Munera may be Transferred for estate planning purposes of Munera to (a) a trust under which the distribution of the Interests may be made only to beneficiaries who are Munera, his spouse, members of his immediate family or his lineal descendants, (b) a charitable remainder trust, the income from which will be paid to Munera during his life, (c) a corporation, the shareholders of which are only Munera, his spouse, members of his immediate family or his lineal descendants or (d) a partnership or limited liability company, the partners or members of which are only Munera, his spouse, members of his immediate family or his lineal descendants. Interests held by Munera may be transferred by will or as a result of the laws of descent and distribution, provided that any heirs, executors or other beneficiaries shall remain subject to the terms of this Agreement as if Munera continued to hold the Interests directly.

Section 12.3     Effect of Assignment. The Company shall, from the effective date of any Transfer of an Interest (or part thereof) permitted under this Article XII, thereafter pay all further distributions on account of such Interest (or part thereof) to the transferee of such Interest (or part thereof); provided, that such transferee shall have no rights or powers as a Member unless such transferee complies with Section 12.6.

Section 12.4    Overriding Provisions.

(a)     Any Transfer or Hypothecation of any Interest in violation of this Article XII shall be null and void ab initio and of no force or effect, and the provisions of Section

12.3 shall not apply to any such Transfer or Hypothecation. The approval of any Transfer or Hypothecation of any Interest in any one or more instances shall not limit or waive the requirement for such approval in any other or future instance.

(b)     All Transfers of Interests permitted under this Article XII are subject to this Section 12.4 and Sections 12.6 and 12.7.

(c)     Any proposed Transfer of Interests by a Member pursuant to the terms of this Article XII shall, in addition to meeting all of the other requirements of this Agreement, satisfy the following conditions: (i) the Transfer will not be effected on or through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof,” as such terms are used in Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1, and, at the request of the Board, the transferor and the transferee will have each provided the Company a certificate to such effect; and (ii) the proposed Transfer will not result in the Company having more than 99 Members, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(1) and will not result in the Company being taxed as a corporation for U.S. tax purposes (determined pursuant to the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)). The Board may in its sole and absolute discretion waive the condition set forth in clause (ii) of this Section 12.4(c).

(d)     The Board shall promptly amend Schedule A to reflect any Transfers of Interests permitted under this Article XII.

Section 12.5    Involuntary Transfers.

(a)     Any Transfer of title or beneficial ownership of Interests upon default, foreclosure, forfeit, divorce, court order or otherwise than by a voluntary decision on the part of a Restricted Member (each, an “Involuntary Transfer”), in each case to a third party that is not a Restricted Member, shall be void unless the Restricted Member complies with this Section 12.5 and enables the Company to exercise in full its rights hereunder. Upon the Involuntary Transfer of any Interests, the Company shall have the right to purchase such Interests pursuant to this Section 12.5 and the Person to whom such Interests have been Transferred (the “Involuntary Transferee”) shall have the obligation to sell such Interests in accordance with this Section 12.5. Upon the Involuntary Transfer of any Interests, such Restricted Member shall promptly (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after such Involuntary Transfer) furnish written notice to the Company indicating that the Involuntary Transfer has occurred, specifying the name of the Involuntary Transferee, giving a reasonably detailed description of the circumstances giving rise to, and stating the legal basis for, the Involuntary Transfer. Upon the receipt of the notice described in the preceding sentence, and for ninety (90) days thereafter, the Company shall have the right to purchase, and the Involuntary Transferee shall have the obligation to sell, all or any portion of the Interests acquired by the Involuntary Transferee for a purchase price equal to the lesser of (i) the Fair Market Value of such Interests and (ii) the amount of the indebtedness or other liability that gave rise to the Involuntary Transfer plus the excess, if any, of the Carrying Value of such Interests over the amount of such indebtedness or other liability that gave rise to the Involuntary Transfer.

(b)     The Company shall have the right to assign to the DMC Members (or their designees), all or any portion of its rights and obligations under Section 12.5(a), provided that any such assignment or assumption is accepted by the DMC Members (or their designees).

If the Company has not exercised its right to purchase Interests pursuant to Section 12.5(a) within fifteen (15) days of receipt by the Company of the letter, notice or other occurrence giving rise to such rights, then the DMC Members shall have the right to require the Company to assign such rights. The DMC Members shall have the right to assign to one or more of its Affiliates all or any of their rights to purchase Interests pursuant to this Section 12.5(b).

Section 12.6    Substitute Members.

(a)     In the event any Member Transfers its direct Interest in the Company in compliance with the other provisions of this Article XII, the transferee thereof shall have the right to become a substitute Member, but only upon satisfaction of the following:

(i)     execution of such instruments as the Board deems reasonably necessary or desirable to effect such substitution; and

(ii)     acceptance and agreement in writing by the transferee of such Interest to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and assumption of all obligations under this Agreement (including breaches hereof) applicable to the transferor and in the case of a transferee of any individual Member who resides in a state with a community property system, such transferee causes his or her spouse, if any, to execute a Spousal Waiver in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto. Upon the execution of the instrument of assumption by such transferee and, if applicable, the Spousal Waiver by the spouse of such transferee, such transferee shall enjoy all of the rights and shall be subject to all of the restrictions and obligations of the transferor of such Interest.

(b)     The Board will ensure that notice of the admission of any substitute members is given to the Secretary of the Company, so that they may make the required amendments to Schedule A hereto.

(c)     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall a transferee of Interests from a Munera Member, even if such transferee is admitted as a member, receive rights to appoint Directors to the Board pursuant to Section 5.1(b)(2)(B) or otherwise.

Section 12.7    Release of Liability. In the event any Member shall Transfer such Member’s entire Interest in the Company (other than pursuant to Sections 12.8 or 12.10) in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 12.5, without retaining any interest therein, directly or indirectly, then the transferring Member shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be relieved of any further liability arising hereunder for events occurring from and after the date of such Transfer.

Section 12.8    Right of First Refusal and Drag-Along Right.

(a)     If at any time after the Effective Date, the DMC Members or the Munera Member (as applicable, the “Selling Member”) proposes to Transfer all but not less than all of the Units it then holds (the “Offered Units”) in a Qualifying Transaction, the Selling Member shall first offer to sell its Units to the Munera Member or the DMC Members (as applicable, the “Other Member”). The Selling Member shall, within five Business Days of receipt of an offer from the proposed counterparty to the Qualifying Transaction (the “Third

Party”) that it desires to accept, give written notice (the “Selling Member Notice”) to the Company and the Other Member stating that it has received a bona fide offer from a Third Party and specifying: (x) the name of the Third Party, (y) the per Unit purchase price and the other material terms and conditions of the Qualifying Transaction, including a description of any non-cash consideration in sufficient detail to permit the valuation thereof and (z) the proposed date, time and location of the closing of the Qualifying Transaction, which shall not be less than sixty (60) Business Days from the date of the Offering Member Notice. The Selling Member Notice shall constitute the Selling Member’s offer to Transfer its Offered Units to the Other Member on the terms set forth in the Selling Member Notice, which offer shall be irrevocable until the end of the ROFR Notice Period (as defined below). By delivering the Selling Member Notice, the Selling Member represents and warrants to the Company and the Other Member that: (x) the Selling Member has full right, title and interest in and to the Offered Units, (y) the Selling Member has all necessary power and authority and has taken all necessary action to sell such Offered Units as contemplated by this Section 12.8(a) and (z) the Offered Units are free and clear of any and all liens other than those arising as a result of or under the terms of this Agreement. Upon receipt of the Selling Member Notice, the Other Member shall have thirty (30) Business Days (the “ROFR Notice Period”) to elect to purchase all (and not less than all) of the Offered Units by delivering a written notice (a “ROFR Offer Notice”) to the Selling Member and the Company stating that it offers to purchase such Offered Units on the terms specified in the Selling Member Notice. If the Other Member is the DMC Members, the DMC Members may offer DMC Series A Preferred Stock as the consideration for such purchase, and such DMC Series A Preferred Stock shall be valued at the Option Share Issue Price for the purposes of this Section 12.8(a). Any ROFR Offer Notice shall be binding upon delivery and irrevocable by the Other Member. If the Other Member does not deliver a ROFR Offer Notice during the ROFR Notice Period, it shall be deemed to have waived all of its rights to purchase the Offered Units under this Section 12.8(a), and the Offering Member shall thereafter be free to sell the Offered Units to the Third Party specified in the Offer Notice, on the terms set forth in the Offer Notice, without any further obligation to such Member pursuant to this Section 12.8(a) if such sale to the Third Party occurs within forty (40) Business Days of the expiration of the ROFR Notice Period.

(b)     If the Other Member does not deliver a ROFR Offer Notice during the ROFR Notice Period, the Selling Member shall have the right, upon written notice to the Other Member delivered not less than the earlier of the expiration of the ROFR Notice Period and twenty (20) Business Days prior to the proposed closing (the “Drag Notice”), to require that the Other Member sell all of its Units on substantially the same (and no less favorable) terms (including with respect to representations, warranties and indemnification) as the Selling Member; provided, that representations and warranties relating specifically to any Member shall only be made by that Member and any indemnification provided by the Members (other than in respect of representations and warranties relating to any such Member’s title to or ownership of the Units being sold by such Member in the proposed sale and such Member’s authority, power and right to enter into and consummate such transaction without violating any other agreement or legal requirement) shall be based on the relative purchase price being received by each Member in the proposed sale, either on a several, not joint, basis or solely with recourse to an escrow established for the benefit of the proposed purchaser. For purposes of this Section 12.8(b), for each Member, “joining” the Selling Member in such Qualifying Transaction shall include voting its Interests consistently with the Selling Member, transferring its Interests to a corporation organized in anticipation of such sale in exchange for capital stock of such corporation, executing and delivering agreements and documents which are being executed and delivered by

the Selling Member and taking such other actions and providing such other cooperation as the Selling Member may reasonably request. Any transaction costs, including transfer taxes and legal, accounting and investment banking fees incurred by the Company and the Selling Member (or its Affiliates) in connection with a Qualifying Transaction effected pursuant to Section 12.8(b), shall, unless the applicable purchaser refuses, be borne by the Company in the event of a merger, consolidation or sale of assets and shall otherwise be borne by the Members on a pro rata basis based on the consideration received by each Member in such transaction.

Section 12.9    Initial Public Offering.

(a)     Upon a determination to effect an Initial Public Offering pursuant to Section 5.1(a)(iii), the Board shall take such actions as are necessary to structure the IPO in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Members, including, without limitation, causing the public offering of the stock of an existing or newly formed Subsidiary of the Company or any of the Transfers, mergers, consolidations or restructurings pursuant to Section 12.9(b) and making any such amendments to this Agreement (subject to Section 14.12) as may be deemed by the Board in good faith solely as necessary to facilitate such IPO.

(b)    In the event of a determination by the Board (after compliance with Section 5.1(a)(iii)) to cause (i) a Transfer of all or substantially all of (x) the assets of the Company or (y) the Interests to a newly organized stock corporation or other business entity with the ownership interests therein allocated as specified herein (“Newco”), (ii) a merger of the Company into Newco by merger or consolidation or (iii) any other restructuring of the Interests, in any such case, whether in anticipation of an Initial Public Offering or otherwise, each Member shall take such reasonable steps to effect such Transfer, merger, consolidation or other restructuring as may reasonably be requested by the Company on terms that are substantially the same (and no less favorable) in respect of such Member’s Interests as other holders of corresponding Interests in respect of such corresponding Interests, including, without limitation, if requested, transferring such Member’s Interests to Newco in exchange for capital stock of Newco; provided, that in the event of such an exchange, each Interest would be exchanged for a number of shares of Newco stock determined in a manner such that each Member is treated no less favorably than such Member would have been treated upon an Exit Event (assuming the value of the consideration to be received by the Members in the Exit Event is the midpoint of the filing range in the IPO, to the extent such exchange is in anticipation of an IPO). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, no Member shall be required to take any action or omit to take any action to the extent such action or omission violates applicable law. If the Board determines to effect an IPO pursuant to this Section 12.9(b) and the Members receive shares of Newco pursuant to any such Transfer, merger, consolidation or restructuring, each Member agrees to enter into (A) a Registration Rights Agreement and (B) any other customary agreements, including, without limitation, an underwriters’ lock-up agreement for a period not to exceed 360 days following the consummation of such IPO, and in any event provides for the same lock-up period for all Members.

Section 12.10    Put/Call Rights.

(a)     At any time on or after the third (3rd) anniversary of the effective date of the First Amended and Restated Agreement, the Munera Member shall have the right (but not

the obligation) (the “Put Option”) to require the DMC Members to purchase, directly or indirectly, Option Units for the Option Purchase Price. The Put Option must be exercised in tranches of no less than 664.5 Units. The Option Purchase Price payable in connection with the exercise of the Put Option shall be paid, at DMC’s option, (i) in cash or (ii) 20% in cash and 80% in shares of DMC Series A Preferred Stock priced at the Option Share Issue Price (the “Put Consideration”), subject to compliance with applicable law and stock exchange rules, unless DMC and the Munera Member mutually agree that the Put Consideration shall be paid in the form of cash or a combination of DMC Common Stock priced at the Option Share Issue Price and cash, in which case the Put Consideration shall be paid in the manner so agreed. To exercise the Put Option, the Munera Member must deliver written notice of its exercise of the Put Option to the DMC Members (the “Put Notice”). The Put Notice shall specify the number of Units to be sold. For purposes of clarification, the Munera Member may not deliver a Put Notice to the DMC Members earlier than December 23, 2024.

(b)     At any time on or after the third (3rd) anniversary of the effective date of the First Amended and Restated Agreement, the DMC Members shall have the right (but not the obligation) (the “Call Option”) to purchase, directly or indirectly, all, but not less than all, of the Option Units for the Option Purchase Price. The Option Purchase Price payable in connection with the exercise of the Call Option shall be paid in cash (the “Call Consideration”), unless DMC and the Munera Member mutually agree that the Call Consideration shall be paid in the form of shares of DMC Common Stock priced at the Option Share Issue Price or a combination of cash and shares of DMC Common Stock priced at the Option Share Issue Price, in which case the Call Consideration shall be paid in the manner so agreed. To exercise the Call Option, the DMC Members must deliver written notice of its exercise of the Call Option to the Munera Member (the “Call Notice”). For purposes of clarification, the DMC Members may not deliver a Call Notice to the Munera Member earlier than December 23, 2024.

(c)     The party delivering an Option Notice (the “Exercising Party”) shall set forth such party’s good faith calculation of the Option Purchase Price for the Option Units. If the party receiving the Option Notice (the “Receiving Party”) has any objections to the calculation of the Option Purchase Price set forth in the Option Notice, the Receiving Party may deliver to the Exercising Party a statement setting forth each disputed item (each, an “Option Purchase Price Dispute”) and the Receiving Party’s proposed calculation thereof (an “Option Purchase Price Dispute Statement”). If an Option Purchase Price Dispute Statement is not delivered to the Exercising Party within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Option Notice by the Receiving Party, then the calculation of the Option Purchase Price set forth in the Option Notice shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the Exercising Party and the Receiving Party. If an Option Purchase Price Dispute Statement is timely delivered, then the Exercising Party and the Receiving Party shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any Option Purchase Price Disputes, but if they do not reach a final resolution on all Option Purchase Price Disputes within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Option Purchase Price Dispute Statement (the “Resolution Period”), the Exercising Party and the Receiving Party shall promptly submit each unresolved Option Purchase Price Dispute to the Accounting Expert to resolve such Option Purchase Price Dispute, and the provisions of Section 12.10(d) shall apply. The “Accounting Expert” shall be a Neutral Accounting Firm selected by mutual agreement of the Exercising Party and the Receiving Party; provided, however, that: (i) if, within fifteen (15) days after the end of the Resolution Period, such parties are unable to agree on a Neutral Accounting Firm to act as the Accounting Expert, then each party shall select a Neutral Accounting Firm and such firms together shall select the

Neutral Accounting Firm to act as the Accounting Expert, and (ii) if any party does not select a Neutral Accounting Firm within ten (10) days of written demand therefor by the other party, then the Neutral Accounting Firm selected by the other party shall act as the Accounting Expert. A “Neutral Accounting Firm” means an independent accounting firm of nationally recognized standing that is not at the time it is to be engaged hereunder rendering services to any party, or any Affiliate of either, and has not done so within the two (2) year-period prior thereto.

(d)    The parties shall arrange for the Accounting Expert to agree in its engagement letter to act in accordance with this Section 12.10(d).

(i)    Each party shall present a brief to the Accounting Expert (which brief shall also be concurrently provided to the other party) within twenty (20) days of the appointment of the Accounting Expert detailing such party’s views as to the correct nature and amount of each remaining Option Purchase Price Dispute (and for the avoidance of doubt, no party may introduce a dispute to the Accounting Expert that was not originally set forth on the Option Purchase Price Dispute Statement). Within ten (10) days of receipt of the brief, the receiving party may present a responsive brief to the Accounting Expert (which responsive brief shall also be concurrently provided to the other party). Each party may make an oral presentation to the Accounting Expert (in which case, such presenting party shall notify the other party of such presentation, and the other party shall have the right to be present (and speak) at such presentation), within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the Accounting Expert. The Accounting Expert shall have the opportunity to present written questions to either party, a copy of which shall be provided to the other party. The Accounting Expert shall consider only those items and amounts in the Exercising Party’s and the Receiving Party’s respective calculations that are identified as being items and amounts to which the Exercising Party and the Receiving Party have been unable to agree.

(ii)    The Accounting Expert’s determination shall be based solely on the definitions Option Purchase Price and Equity Value (including the components thereof) contained herein and the provisions of this Agreement, including this Section 12.10, and the scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Accounting Expert shall be limited to whether the calculations of the Option Purchase Price were done in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, whether the accounting methods and procedures used to prepare the Option Purchase Price were done in accordance with GAAP and the definitions of Option Purchase Price and Equity Value (including the components thereof) and whether there were mathematical errors in the calculation of the Option Purchase Price, and the Accounting Expert shall not make any other determination.

(iii)    In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Expert shall select either the position of the Exercising Party or the Receiving Party as a resolution for each item or amount disputed and may not impose an alternative resolution with respect to any item or amount disputed. The Accounting Expert shall make a written determination within sixty (60) days of its appointment as to each such disputed item, which determination shall be final and binding on the DMC Members and the Munera Member for all purposes hereunder absent manifest error.

(iv)    The fees and expenses of the Accounting Expert and of any enforcement of the determination thereof shall be borne by the Munera Member and the DMC Members in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the matters resolved by the Accounting Expert, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by the Accounting Expert at the time the determination of such firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted.

(e)    The closing of the purchase of Option Units as a result of the exercise of the Put Option (a “Put Closing”) or the exercise of the Call Option (a “Call Closing”) shall occur at the offices of DMC at a time designated by the DMC Members on the later of (i) the Option Closing date specified in the Option Notice, which shall be no sooner than ninety (90) days after delivery of the Option Notice, and (ii) fifteen (15) days after the date of which the Option Purchase Price becomes final and binding in accordance with Section 12.10(c) or Section 12.10(d). Option Units may be purchased by either or both DMC Members in whatever ratio they elect in their sole discretion. At the Option Closing:

(i)    the participating DMC Members shall deliver the following to the Munera Member: (A) the Put Consideration or Call Consideration, as applicable, resulting from the finally determined Option Purchase Price for the purchased Option Units, with any such consideration (x) in the form of cash, to be paid by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. dollars to the account designated by the Munera Members, (y) in the form of DMC Common Stock, to be delivered via book entry registered in the name(s) designated by the Munera Members or (z) in the form of DMC Series A Preferred Stock, in the form of certificates representing the shares of DMC Series A Preferred Stock issued in the name of the applicable Munera Members; (B) a counterpart to the Option Purchase Agreement, duly executed by the participating DMC Members; and (C) such other instruments or documents as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Option Purchase Agreement;

(ii)    the Munera Member shall deliver the following to the participating DMC Members: (A) duly executed instruments of transfer, in form reasonably acceptable to the DMC Members, that assign all right, title and interest in and to the purchased Option Units to the participating DMC Members; (B) a counterpart to the Option Purchase Agreement, duly executed by the Munera Member; and (C) such other endorsements, instruments or documents as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Option Purchase Agreement;

(f)    Any transaction costs, including transfer taxes and legal and accounting and fees, incurred by the DMC Members or the Munera Member in connection with the exercise of any Put Option or Call Option under this Section 12.10 and the purchase and sale of Option Units in connection therewith shall be borne by the respective Member incurring such costs. In no event will any shares of DMC Common Stock or DMC Series A Preferred Stock be issued to any person who is not an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act, to whom it is otherwise unlawful to issue such shares, or who refuses to provide customary representations about such person’s investment intent with respect to such

shares. Any such shares will contain customary legends restricting transfer except in compliance with applicable securities laws.

(g)     If shares of DMC Series A Preferred Stock are to be issued pursuant to this Article XII and the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market would prohibit the issuance of such shares with the full conversion and voting rights contemplated in Exhibit A without the approval of the holders of DMC Common Stock, (i) the conversion and voting limitations substantially as set forth in the bracketed provisions of Exhibit A will apply so that such shares of DMC Series A Preferred Stock may be issued prior to shareholder approval and (ii) the DMC Member will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the requisite approval of the holders of DMC Common Stock so that such conversion and voting limitations will cease to apply as promptly as is reasonably practicable.

Section 13.1    Dissolving Events. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs wound up in the manner hereinafter provided upon the happening of any of the following events:

(a)    the Board makes a determination, subject to Section 5.1(a)(iii), to dissolve the Company; or

(b)    any event which under applicable law would cause the dissolution of the Company; provided that, unless required by applicable law, the Company shall not be wound up as a result of any such event and the business of the Company shall continue.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the death, retirement, resignation, expulsion, bankruptcy or dissolution of any Member or the occurrence of any other event that terminates the continued membership of any Member in the Company under the Colorado Act shall not, in and of itself, cause the dissolution of the Company. In such event, the remaining Member(s) shall continue the business of the Company without dissolution.

Section 13.2    Dissolution and Winding Up.

The date on which a Holder complies with the procedures in this Section 7(c) is the “Conversion Date.”  If more than one share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon conversion of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock so surrendered.

(d)Immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Conversion Date with respect to a conversion, conversion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion shall be deemed to have been effected, and, as of the Close of Business on the Conversion Date, the converting Holder of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Holder’s Series A Preferred Stock notwithstanding that the share register of the Corporation shall then be closed or that Common Stock shall not have been actually delivered to such Holder. On the Conversion Date, all rights with respect to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted, including the rights, if any, to receive notices, will terminate, excepting only the rights of holders thereof to (i) receive the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been converted via The Depositary Trust Company Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system, (ii) exercise the rights to which they are thereafter entitled as holders of Common Stock, and (iii) any Accrued Dividends accrued through the day prior to the Conversion Date.

(e)In the event the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the Initial Issue Date while the shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, effect a subdivision (by any stock split, stock dividend, dividend of options, warrants or other similar instruments, stock reclassification or otherwise) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock (or other equity interests), then and in each such event the Conversion Rate in effect at the Open of Business on the day after the date upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately adjusted. Additionally, if the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the Initial Issue Date while the shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, effect a combination (by any reverse stock split or otherwise) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock (or other equity interests), then and in each such event the Conversion Rate in effect at the Open of Business on the day after the date upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately adjusted.

(f)Upon any change in the Conversion Rate, the Corporation promptly shall deliver to each Holder a certificate signed by an Officer of the Corporation, setting forth in reasonable detail the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and specifying the Conversion Rate in effect following such adjustment.

(g)The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available for issuance upon the conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock a number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock sufficient to satisfy its obligations if all of the Series A Preferred Stock were converted, and shall take all action required to increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock if at any time there shall be insufficient unissued shares of Common Stock to permit such reservation or to permit the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

(h)A converting Holder is not required to pay any transfer or similar taxes due upon conversion of such Holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock, except that such Holder shall pay such transfer or similar taxes payable relating to any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock, if any, due upon conversion of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock in a name other than that of the converting Holder.  The Corporation may require that such converting Holder establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Corporation that such converting Holder has paid in full all applicable transfer or similar taxes, if any, payable by such converting Holder prior to issuing and delivering the shares of Common Stock due upon conversion of such converting Holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon surrender of a share of Series A Preferred Stock for conversion, the Corporation or an applicable withholding agent may deduct and withhold on cash dividends, shares of Common stock or sale proceeds paid, subsequently paid or credited (or on the consideration otherwise delivered) with respect to such Holder or its successors and assigns the amount required to be deducted and withheld under applicable law.

8.No Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Common Stock or securities representing fractional shares of Common Stock will be delivered upon redemption or conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock.  Instead, the Corporation shall round up to the nearest whole share the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered.

9.Transfer Restrictions.

(a)Until such time as the Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock issued upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or the Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, each certificate issued with respect to a share of Series A Preferred Stock or any Common Stock issued upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS, AND IN THE CASE OF A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION, UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO IT THAT SUCH TRANSACTION DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS.

(b)In connection with a sale of the Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, in reliance on Rule 144, the applicable holder or its broker shall deliver to the Corporation a broker representation letter providing to the Corporation any information the Corporation deems necessary to determine that such sale is made in compliance with Rule 144, including, as may be appropriate, a certification that such holder is not an “affiliate” of the Corporation (as defined in Rule 144) and a certification as to the length of time the applicable equity interests have been held. Upon receipt of such representation letter, the Corporation shall promptly remove the restrictive legend, and the Corporation shall bear all costs associated with such removal. At such time as the Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock issued upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or have been held by the applicable holder for more than one year where the holder is not, and has not been in the preceding three months, an “affiliate” of the Corporation (as defined in Rule 144), if the restrictive legend is still in place, the Corporation agrees, upon request of such holder, to take all steps necessary to promptly effect the removal of such legend, and the Corporation shall bear all costs associated with such removal.

10.Certificates.

(a)Form and Dating. Certificates representing shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the Transfer Agent’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Certificate of Designations. The Series A Preferred Stock certificate may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules, agreements to which the Corporation is subject, if any, or usage, provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Corporation. Each Series A Preferred Stock certificate shall be dated the date of its authentication.

(b)Execution and Authentication. Two Officers shall sign each Series A Preferred Stock certificate for the Corporation by manual or facsimile signature.

(i)If an Officer whose signature is on a Series A Preferred Stock certificate no longer holds that office at the time the Transfer Agent authenticates the Series A Preferred Stock certificate, the Series A Preferred Stock certificate shall be valid nevertheless.

(ii)A Series A Preferred Stock certificate shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Transfer Agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Series A Preferred Stock certificate. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Series A Preferred Stock certificate has been authenticated under this Certificate of Designations.

(iii)The Transfer Agent shall authenticate and deliver certificates for shares of Series A Preferred Stock for original issue upon a written order of the Corporation signed by two Officers of the Corporation. Such order shall specify the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of the Series A Preferred Stock is to be authenticated.

(iv)The Transfer Agent may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to authenticate the certificates for the Series A Preferred Stock. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate certificates for the Series A Preferred Stock whenever the Transfer Agent may do so. Each reference in this Certificate of Designations to authentication by the Transfer Agent includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as the Transfer Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

(c)Transfer. When certificates representing shares of Series A Preferred Stock are presented to the Transfer Agent with a request to register the transfer of such shares, the Transfer Agent shall

(i)shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation and the Transfer Agent, duly executed by the holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing; and

(ii)are being transferred pursuant to subclause (A) or (B) below, and are accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable:

(A)if such certificates are being delivered to the Transfer Agent by a holder for registration in the name of such holder, without transfer, a certification from such holder to that effect in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto; or

(B)if such certificates are being transferred to the Corporation or to a “qualified institutional buyer” in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act or pursuant to another exemption from registration under the Securities Act, (i) a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto) and (ii) if the Corporation so requests, an opinion of counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to it as to the compliance with the restrictions in the legend set forth in Section 9(a).

(d)Replacement Certificates. If any of the Series A Preferred Stock certificates shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Corporation shall issue, in exchange and in substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Series A Preferred Stock certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for the Series A Preferred Stock certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Series A Preferred Stock certificate of like tenor and representing an equivalent amount of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, but only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft or destruction of such Series A Preferred Stock certificate and indemnity, if requested, satisfactory to the Corporation and the Transfer Agent.

(e)Cancellation. In the event the Corporation shall purchase or otherwise acquire certificates representing shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the same shall thereupon be delivered to the Transfer Agent for cancellation. The Transfer Agent and no one else shall cancel and destroy all Series A Preferred Stock certificates surrendered for transfer, exchange, replacement or cancellation and deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Corporation unless the Corporation directs the Transfer Agent to deliver canceled Series A Preferred Stock certificates to the Corporation. The Corporation may not issue new Series A Preferred Stock certificates to replace Series A Preferred Stock certificates to the extent they evidence Series A Preferred Stock which the Corporation has purchased or otherwise acquired.

(f)Record Holders. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Transfer Agent and the Corporation may deem and treat the Person in whose name such shares are registered as the absolute owner of such Series A Preferred Stock, and neither the Transfer Agent nor the Corporation shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(g)No Obligation of the Transfer Agent. The Transfer Agent shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Certificate of Designations or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Series A Preferred Stock other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Certificate of Designations, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

11.Other Provisions.

(a)With respect to any notice to a Holder required to be provided hereunder, neither failure to send such notice, nor any defect therein or in the sending thereof, to any particular Holder shall affect

(b)Shares of Series A Preferred Stock that have been issued and reacquired in any manner, including shares of Series A Preferred Stock that are purchased or exchanged or converted, shall (upon compliance with any applicable provisions of the laws of Delaware) have the status of authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock of the Corporation undesignated as to series and may be designated or redesignated and issued or reissued, as the case may be, as part of any series of Preferred Stock of the Corporation; provided however, that any issuance of such shares as Series A Preferred Stock must be in compliance with the terms hereof.

(c)All notice periods referred to herein shall commence on the date of the mailing of the applicable notice. Notice to any Holder shall be given to the registered address set forth in the Corporation’s records for such Holder.

(d)Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any preemptive rights to acquire additional Capital Stock of the Corporation.

(e)If any term of the Series A Preferred Stock set forth herein is invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law, stock exchange rules or public policy, all other terms set forth herein which can be given effect without the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable term will, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect, and no term herein set forth will be deemed dependent upon any other such term unless so expressed herein.
