1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -13- Contract"). Within three (3) Business Days following the approval of the annual business plan for the first Business Plan Period by the Executive Committee pursuant to Section 2.07, the Company and Commerce shall execute and deliver the Construction Contract to the escrow for the Construction Loan (which shall be effective concurrently with the closing of the Construction Loan). Majestic hereby agrees to use it commercially reasonable efforts to cause Commerce to commence the construction of the Improvements promptly following the closing of the Construction Loan. All major subcontractors hired for the construction of the Improvements shall be subject to the approval of the Executive Committee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Majestic shall provide Tejon with a copy of each bid received from each subcontractor on the date Majestic provides Tejon the final construction pricing. Pursuant to the terms of the Construction Contract, the Company shall pay to the Design- Builder a fee equal to (A) three percent (3%) of the total Applicable Construction Costs incurred by the Company in connection with the construction of any Improvements that are both designed and constructed by the Design-Builder, and (B) five percent (5%) of the total Applicable Construction Costs as compensation for rendering the builder and other services described in the Construction Contract. The term "Applicable Construction Costs" means the actual "hard" and "soft" costs actually incurred by the Design-Builder in connection with the construction of the Improvements, subject to the guaranteed maximum price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Tejon and Majestic acknowledge and agree that only certain of the Improvements will be designed and constructed by the Design- Builder, such as the following which are subject to three percent (3%) fee described above in Section 2.10(A): fire sprinkler system, fire alarm system, future tenant improvement work at the Project, and mechanical, plumbing, electrical, and civil engineering work, if and to the extent converted as part of the design builder services. Tejon and Majestic further acknowledge and agree that certain of the Improvements will be constructed (but not designed ) by the Design- Builder, such as the following: architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, civil engineering and landscape work for the shell and site work. For the avoidance of doubt, the three percent (3%) fee described above in Section 2.10(A) shall only be paid with respect to the total Applicable Construction Costs that are incurred by the Company for those Improvements that are both designed and constructed by the Design-Builder. 2.11 Development and Construction Management Services Prior to the Effective Date, Tejon retained one (1) or more environmental consultants, architects, soil engineers, civil engineers and/or other consultants, specialists and experts (collectively, the "Consultants") to provide various services in connection with the development and construction of the Improvements. The contracts entered into by Tejon with the Consultants (collectively, the "Service Contracts") will be assigned by Tejon to the Company and the Company shall assume all of Tejon's duties and obligations under the Service Contracts in accordance with the terms of the Contribution Agreement described in Section 2.07. The Administrative Member shall be responsible for (A) interviewing and recommending any Consultants to be hired by the Company to render services after the Effective Date at the Company's cost in connection with the development and construction of the Improvements, (B) reviewing and evaluating proposed contracts to be entered into between the Company and each
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -14- Consultant after the Effective Date, and (C) negotiating such proposed contracts to be entered into after the Effective Date (it being understood that all such contracts shall be required to be approved by the Executive Committee and executed by the Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to hire from among those Consultants identified on Exhibit "F" attached hereto to provide the services that such Consultants have historically provided for the Property (with the final decision on which Consultants to hire being reasonably determined by the Executive Committee). The Administrative Member shall be responsible for coordinating and supervising the services to be provided by each such Consultant(including, without limitation, any Consultant hired by Tejon prior to the Effective Date that will be rendering services after such date). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Member shall work closely with the architects hired by the Company or Tejon prior to the Effective Date to prepare and process any revisions to the plans and specifications for the Improvements. In addition to the above services, the Administrative Member shall also supervise the development and construction of the Improvements. Tejon shall assist in the general construction oversight activities and will coordinate with Commerce to address any construction related issues and matters. In addition, Tejon will take the lead role in meeting with Kern County and other municipalities and local authorities/agencies to obtain any necessary permits, entitlements, consents and other approvals necessary to construct the Improvements on the Property. As consideration for providing the development services described in this Section 2.11, the Company shall pay to the Members a development fee ("Development Fee") equal to four percent (4%) of the "hard costs" actually incurred in connection with the development and construction of the Improvements.

The Administrative Member shall be entitled to receive seventy-five percent (75%) of the Development Fee and Tejon shall be entitled to receive twenty-five percent (25%) of the Development Fee. As consideration for providing the construction management services described in this Section 2.11, the Company shall pay to Tejon a construction management fee equal to one percent (1%) of the Applicable Construction Costs incurred in connection with the development and construction of such Improvements. 2.12 Master Developer Work Tejon shall be obligated to perform in accordance with the Development Plan the work described on Exhibit "G" attached hereto (the "Master Developer Work"), at Tejon's sole cost and expense, in connection with the contribution of the Property to the Company, to the extent reasonably necessary for the development of the Improvements. Prior to commencing the Master Developer Work, (i) the Executive Committee shall reasonably agree upon the location of all utility connections and the ingress and/or egress improvements to be constructed as part of the Master Developer Work, and (ii) Tejon shall provide Majestic with a copy of the plans and specifications for any ingress and/or egress improvements to be constructed as part of the Master Developer Work for the review and input of Majestic; provided, however, the Executive Committee shall have the right to approve such plans and specifications (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Subject to any delays permitted by Section 13.23, Tejon shall be obligated (A) to perform the Master Developer Work in a
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -15- coordinated manner consistent with the schedule in the Development Plan such that the Project can be completed in accordance with the Development Plan by the Project's scheduled completion date, and (B) in compliance with all required permits from the local government authority. Tejon shall provide Majestic with monthly updates of the Master Developer Work, which has been performed or is contemplated to be performed in the future. 2.13 Marketing and Leasing Management The Administrative Member shall be responsible for preparing a marketing plan for the Project and negotiating leases for the Project with the assistance of, and in coordination with, the other Member. The marketing plan shall be submitted by the Administrative Member to the Executive Committee (as part of the annual business plan for the Company's first Business Plan Period) for its review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Each marketing plan that is approved by the Executive Committee is hereinafter referred to as the "Marketing Plan." The Marketing Plan shall describe in reasonable detail (i) the types of proposed users and buyers for the Project, (ii) the marketing, leasing and sales objectives and a timeline for accomplishing such objectives, and (iii) such other information regarding the marketing of the Project as is reasonably requested by the Executive Committee. The Administrative Member shall be responsible for implementing each Marketing Plan on behalf of the Company (provided the Company shall pay all third-party out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the implementation of each such Marketing Plan). The Marketing Plan shall be updated by the Administrative Member on a quarterly basis and submitted to the Executive Committee for its review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Project is fully leased, then the Administrative Member shall not be required to update the Marketing Plan prior to the date that is one (1) year prior to the expiration of the earliest of such leases to expire (unless otherwise requested to do so by the other Member). 2.14 Property Management The Administrative Member and the other Member shall jointly act as the property manager for the Project. In its capacity as a property manager for the Project, the Administrative Member shall be responsible for managing the accounting and the contract and lease administration for the Project including, without limitation, enforcing the Company's rights and benefits, and causing the Company to perform its duties and obligations, under each lease entered into with respect to the Project. In its capacity as a property manager for the Project, Tejon shall be responsible for the repair and maintenance of the Project and customer service. Tejon may not assign or delegate its duties or obligations under this Section 2.14 without the prior written consent of the Executive Committee. As compensation for rendering the services described in this Section 2.14, (i) each Member shall be reimbursed for the reasonable third-party out-of-pocket costs incurred by such Member in rendering such services, and (ii) the Company shall pay to each Member a fee (the "Property Management Fee") equal to one and 5/10ths percent (1.5%) of the gross receipts received by the Company from the operation of the Project. The Property Management Fee shall be earned as the management services are rendered and paid on the first day of each calendar month based upon the gross receipts received by the Company in the preceding calendar month. If the Administrative Member ceases to provide the property management services it is required to render under this Section 2.14 and Tejon thereafter provides
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -16- such services, then the Property Management Fee that is otherwise payable to Majestic for the rendering of such services shall thereafter be paid to Tejon. If Tejon ceases to provide the property management services it is required to render under this Section 2.14 and Majestic thereafter provides such services, then the Property Management Fee that is otherwise payable to Tejon for the rendering of such services shall thereafter be paid to Majestic. 2.15 Authority with Respect to the Affiliate Agreements Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement including, without limitation, Sections 2.01, 2.02, 2.03 and 2.04, Tejon or Majestic, as the case may be, shall have the sole right, power and authority, in its sole and absolute discretion and without the consent or approval of the other Member (the "Affiliated Member"), (i) to cause the Company to enforce its rights under any contract or other agreement entered into by the Company with the Affiliated Member and/or any Affiliate thereof (collectively, the "Affiliate Agreements") following any breach by the Affiliated Member and/or any Affiliate thereof under any such Affiliate Agreement, (ii) to make all decisions on behalf of the Company with respect to any amendment, modification, rescission, extension, and/or termination under any Affiliate Agreement, (iii) to determine the existence of any default under any Affiliate Agreement and to cause the Company to declare any such default following any breach by the Affiliated Member and/or any Affiliate thereof under such Affiliate Agreement, (iv) to cause the Company to institute, settle and/or compromise any claim under any Affiliate Agreement against the Affiliated Member and/or any Affiliate thereof, (v) to cause the Company to waive any rights of the Company against the Affiliated Member and/or any Affiliate thereof under any Affiliate Agreement, and (vi) to cause the Company to consent to the assignment of any rights and/or the delegation of any duties by the Affiliated Member and/or any Affiliate thereof under any Affiliate Agreement. Majestic or Tejon, as the case may be, shall cooperate in good faith with the other Member in the exercise by the other Member of the foregoing rights and actions under the Affiliate Agreements. For the avoidance of any doubt, the Members acknowledge that the Construction Contract to be entered into by the Company and Commerce constitutes an Affiliate Agreement under this Agreement (as a result of Commerce being an Affiliate of Majestic). 2.16 Election, Resignation, Removal of the Administrative Member (a) Number, Term and Qualifications.

Any individual may hold any number of offices. Unless the Executive Committee otherwise determines in its sole and absolute discretion, (i) if the title assigned to any Officer is one commonly used for officers of a business corporation formed under the Delaware General Corporation Law, then the assignment of such title shall constitute the delegation to such person of the rights, powers, duties, obligations and authority that are normally associated with that office, and (ii) no Officer shall receive any salary or other compensation for acting as an Officer of the Company.

1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -19- the extent all or any portion of any fee is not paid in full prior to the Liquidation of the Company, such unpaid portion of such fee shall constitute a debt of the Company payable upon such Liquidation.

ARTICLE III MEMBERS' CONTRIBUTIONS TO COMPANY 3.01 Initial Contributions of the Members The initial capital contributions of the Members shall be made as follows: (a) Initial Cash Contributions. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of Tejon and Majestic shall make an initial cash contribution to the capital of the Company in the amount set forth opposite such Member's name under the column labelled "Inititial Cash Contributuion" on Exhibit "A" attached hereto to enable the Company to fund the anticipated costs and expenses that will be
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -20- incurred by the Company prior to the funding of the Construction Loan described in Section 3.04. Each Member’s Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account shall be credited by the amount contributed by such Member pursuant to this Section 3.01(a) on the date such contribution is made. (b) Tejon Property and Related Contributions. Tejon hereby agrees to make the following contributions: (i) In accordance with the terms of the Contribution Agreement, Tejon shall assign, transfer and contribute to the capital of the Company on the Effective Date, Tejon's entire fee interest in and to the Property (subject to all liens, encumbrances and other permitted exceptions to title approved under the Contribution Agreement). The Property shall be contributed by Tejon to the Company concurrently with the closing of the Construction Loan at an agreed upon value (net of all such approved liens, encumbrances and permitted exceptions) of Five Dollars ($5.00) per square foot of the net usable land area, reduced by the lien for property taxes not yet payable and adjusted for any other prorations in the manner described below and any other items agreed to by Tejon and Majestic under the Contribution Agreement (the "Agreed Value"). The Agreed Value shall be reduced by the amount of any net prorations and credits charged to Tejon under the Contribution Agreement and increased by the amount of any net prorations and credits charged to the Company under the Contribution Agreement. The Agreed Value of the Property prior to any adjustment for real property taxes not yet payable, prorations and credits will equal approximately Eight Million One Hundred Sixty-Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($8,167,500.00) (i.e., (total acreage of 37.5 acres x 43,560) x $5.00 = $8,167,500.00). Tejon's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account shall each be credited by an amount equal to the Agreed Value on the date the Property is contributed to the Company. (ii) Contribution of Work Product. Effective concurrently with the closing of the Construction Loan, Tejon herby assigns, transfers and contributes to the Company the entire right, title and interest of Tejon in and to all reports, studies and other work product obtained by Tejon prior to the Effective Date that relate to the Property (collectively, the “Work Product”). Tejon's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account shall each be credited on the effective date of such contribution by an amount equal to the Pre-Development Costs paid by Tejon prior to the Effective Date set forth on Exhibit "C" attached hereto. In furtherance of the foregoing, Tejon hereby represents and warrants that Tejon and/or one (1) or more of its Affiliates has actually paid the Pre-Development Costs to be credited to Tejon's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account pursuant to this Section 3.01(b)(ii). (c) Majestic Balancing Contribution. Majestic hereby agrees to make the following contributions: (i) Concurrently with the closing of the Construction Loan (and through the escrow established for the Construction Loan), Majestic shall
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -21- contribute to the capital of the Company, in cash, an amount equal to the sum of (A) fifty percent (50%) of the the Agreed Value, and (B) the excess of (1) fifty percent (50%) of the amount of the Pre-Development Costs paid by both Members (or any Affiliate thereof) prior to the Effective Date, minus (2) the Pre- Development Costs paid by Majestic (or any Affiliate thereof) prior to the Effective Date. Majestic's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account shall be credited by such amount on the date such contribution is made. Concurrently with the closing of the Construction Loan, the Company shall distribute the capital contribution made by Majestic pursuant to this Section 3.01(c)(i) to Tejon, which distribution shall be debited to Tejon's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account on the date such distribution is made. After such distribution is made, the balance standing in Tejon's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account shall equal the sum of (x) the capital contributed by Tejon to the capital of the Company pursuant to Section 3.01(a), (y) fifty percent (50%) of the Agreed Value, and (z) fifty percent (50%) of the Pre-Development Costs paid by the Members (and/or any affiliate thereof) prior to the Effective Date (which will equal the balance standing in Majestic's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account on the date such distribution is made). (ii) Contribution of Work Product. Effective concurrently with the closing of the Construction Loan, Majestic herby assigns, transfers and contributes to the Company the entire right, title and interest of Majestic in and to all Work Product obtained by Majestic prior to the Effective Date that relate to the Property. Majestic's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account shall each be credited on the effective date of such contribution by an amount equal to the Pre- Development Costs paid by Majestic prior to the Effective Date set forth on Exhibit "C" attached hereto. In furtherance of the foregoing, Majestic hereby represents and warrants that Majestic and/or one (1) or more of its Affiliates has actually paid the Pre-Development Costs to be credited to Majestic's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account pursuant to this Section 3.01(c)(ii). 3.02 Additional Capital Contributions If the Company has insufficient funds to meet its current or projected financial requirements (a "Shortfall"), then the Administrative Member shall give written notice (the "Capital Call Notice") of such Shortfall to the other Member. The Contribution Notice shall summarize, with reasonable particularity, the Company's actual and projected cash obligations, cash on hand, projected sources and amounts of future Cash Flow and a contribution date ("Additional Contribution Date") (which shall not be less than ten (10) Business Days following the effective date of such notice) upon which each Member shall be obligated to contribute to the capital of the Company, in cash, such Member's Percentage Interest of the funds necessary to satisfy such Shortfall. If the Company has a Shortfall and the Administrative Member fails to deliver a Capital Call Notice so that the Company may timely satisfy any such Shortfall, then the other Member may deliver the Capital Call Notice pursuant to this Section 3.02. Any and all amounts contributed to the capital of the Company by any Member pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be credited to such Member's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account on the date any such contribution is made.
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -22- 3.03 Remedy for Failure to Contribute Capital If any Member (the "Non-Contributing Member") fails to contribute timely all or any portion of the additional capital such Member is required to contribute pursuant to Section 3.02 (the "Delinquent Contribution"), and provided that the other Member (the "Contributing Member") has timely contributed to the capital of the Company all of the additional capital required to be contributed by such Contributing Member pursuant to Section 3.02 (with respect to that particular notice and capital call), then such Contributing Member shall have the right to select one (1) or more of the following options in accordance with the terms set forth below in this Section 3.03: (a) Loan Remedy. The Contributing Member may advance to the Company, in cash, within thirty (30) days following the Additional Contribution Date, an amount equal to the Delinquent Contribution, and such advance shall be treated as a nonrecourse loan ("Default Loan") by the Contributing Member to the Non-Contributing Member, bearing interest at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) the prevailing prime commercial lending rate of Wells Fargo Bank plus five (5) percentage points, adjusted concurrently with any adjustments to such rate and compounded annually, or (ii) the maximum, nonusurious rate then permitted by law for such loans. Subject to Sections 7.09 and 8.08, each Default Loan shall be due and payable in full one hundred twenty (120) days from the date advanced (or, if earlier, upon the dissolution of the Company). As of the effective date of the advance of any Default Loan, the Capital Account and the Unreturned Contribution Account of the Non-Contributing Member shall be credited with an amount equal to the original principal balance of the Default Loan made by the Contributing Member to the Non-Contributing Member. Notwithstanding the provisions of Articles V and XII, until any and all Default Loans made to the Non- Contributing Member are repaid in full, the Non-Contributing Member shall receive no further distributions from the Company, and all cash or property otherwise distributable with respect to the Non-Contributing Member's Interest shall be distributed to the Contributing Member as a reduction of the outstanding balance of (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) any and all such Default Loans, with such funds being applied first to reduce any and all interest accrued on such Default Loan(s) and then to reduce the principal amount thereof. Any amounts so applied shall be treated, for all purposes under this Agreement, as having actually been distributed to the Non- Contributing Member pursuant to Section 5.01 and applied by the Non-Contributing Member to repay such outstanding Default Loan(s). To secure the repayment of any and all Default Loans made to the Non- Contributing Member, such Non-Contributing Member hereby grants a security interest in favor of the Contributing Member in and to the Non-Contributing Member's entire Interest in the Company, and hereby irrevocably appoints the Contributing Member, and each of the Contributing Member's representatives, agents, officers or employees, as the Non- Contributing Member's attorney(s)-in-fact, with full power to prepare, execute, acknowledge, and deliver, as applicable, all documents, instruments, and/or agreements memorializing and/or securing such Default Loan(s), including, without limitation, such Uniform Commercial Code financing and continuation statements, mortgages, pledge
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -23- agreements and other security instruments as may be reasonably appropriate to perfect and continue the security interest in favor of such Contributing Member. The Contributing Member is also authorized to cause the Company to issue certificates (collectively, the "Certificates") evidencing the Members' respective Interests in the Company (in such form as is determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Contributing Member) and is further authorized to take possession and control of any such Certificate of the Non-Contributing Member if it has made a Default Loan to the Non- Contributing Member. Following the issuance of the Certificates, each Interest in the Company shall constitute a "certificated security" within the meaning of, and be governed by, (A) Section 8-102(a)(15) of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of Delaware, and (B) the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction that now or hereafter substantially includes the 1994 revisions to Article 8 thereof as adopted by the American Law Institute and the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws and approved by the American Bar Association on February 14, 1995. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent with any non-waivable provision of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect in the State of Delaware (6 Del C. § 8-101, et seq.), such provision of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code shall control. If, upon the maturity of a Default Loan (taking into account any agreed upon extensions thereof), any principal thereof and/or accrued interest thereon remains outstanding, then the Contributing Member may elect any one (1) of the following options: (1) to renew such Default Loan (or portion thereof) pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Section 3.03(a) for such additional term as is determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Contributing Member; (2) to institute legal (or other) proceedings against the Non-Contributing Member to collect such loan which may include, without limitation, foreclosing against the security interest granted above; (3) to contribute all or any portion of such outstanding principal of, and accrued interest on, such Default Loan (or portion thereof) to the capital of the Company pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.03(b); or (4) to implement the default provisions set forth in Article VII in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.03(c). The Contributing Member may elect any of the options set forth in the immediately preceding sentence by giving written notice of such election to the Non-Contributing Member within thirty (30) days following such maturity date. Failure of the Contributing Member to timely give such written notice to the Non-Contributing Member shall be deemed to constitute an election to renew such Default Loan for an additional term of one hundred twenty (120) days on the terms set forth herein. If the Contributing Member elects to foreclose upon the security interest in the Non-Contributing Member's Interest in the Company granted above, then the Contributing Member is authorized to cancel the Certificate evidencing the Non-Contributing Member's Interest in the Company and issue a new Certificate to the Contributing Member that has foreclosed upon such Interest. (b) Dilution Remedy. The Contributing Member may contribute to the capital of the Company, in cash, within thirty (30) days following the Additional
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -24- Contribution Date an amount equal to the Delinquent Contribution, and such Contributing Member's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account shall each be credited with the amount contributed by such Contributing Member. Further, upon the maturity of a Default Loan that is not fully repaid on or before the maturity date thereof, the Contributing Member may contribute to the capital of the Company, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.03(a) above, all or any portion of the outstanding principal of and/or accrued interest on such Default Loan previously advanced by such Contributing Member that is not repaid prior to the maturity date thereof, and (i) the amount of such outstanding principal and/or interest so contributed shall be deemed repaid and satisfied; (ii) the Capital Account and the Unreturned Contribution Account of the Non-Contributing Member shall be decreased, but not below zero (0), by the amount of such outstanding principal and/or interest so contributed; and (iii) the Capital Account and the Unreturned Contribution Account of the Contributing Member shall be increased by the amount of such outstanding principal and/or interest so contributed. Upon the contribution of the Delinquent Contribution and/or the outstanding balance of a Default Loan by the Contributing Member pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.03(b), (A) the balance standing in each Member’s Unreturned Contribution Account and Capital Account shall be decreased in the case of the Non- Contributing Member and increased in the case of the Contributing Member by an amount equal to the Adjustment Amount, and (B) each Member’s Percentage Interest shall be decreased in the case of the Non-Contributing Member and increased in the case of the Contributing Member by the Dilution Percentage. The "Adjustment Amount" shall equal fifty percent (50%) of each Delinquent Contribution contributed by the Contributing Member on behalf of the Non-Contributing Member pursuant to this Section 3.03(b). The "Dilution Percentage" shall equal the amount expressed in percentage points calculated based upon the following formula: Dilution Percentage = 150 ( Delinquent Contribution Total amount of the Members' capital contributions to the Company (including any Delinquent Contribution contributed by the Contributing Member), not reduced by any distributions under Section 5.01 ) The application of the provisions of this Section 3.03(b) are illustrated by the following example: Assume that (1) the aggregate balance standing in each Member's Unreturned Contribution Account and Capital Account is equal to Two Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,300,000) (i.e., $4,600,000 in the aggregate), (2) a contribution of Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000) is required to be contributed by the Members to the capital of the Company pursuant to Section 3.02, (3) the Non- Contributing Member has a Percentage Interest of fifty percent (50%) and fails to contribute its share of such contribution equal to Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) (i.e., 50% $400,000), and (4) the Contributing Member has a Percentage Interest of fifty percent (50%) and contributes its entire share of such contribution equal to
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -25- Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) (i.e., 50% x $400,000) and the Delinquent Contribution of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) to the capital of the Company on behalf of the Non-Contributing Member pursuant to this Section 3.03(b), which increases the balance standing in the Contributing Member's Unreturned Contribution Account and Capital Account (before taking into account the Adjustment Amount) from Two Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,300,000) to Two Million Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,700,000) (i.e., $2,300,000 + $400,000 = $2,700,000). By operation of this Section 3.03(b), the Adjustment Amount would equal One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (i.e., $200,000 Delinquent Contribution x 50% = $100,000), and the Dilution Percentage would be equal to six (6) percentage points as calculated in accordance with the following formula: 6 = 150 $200,000 $ 5,0 00,000 Accordingly, (x) the balance standing in each Member’s Unreturned Contribution Account and Capital Account would be (AA) decreased in the case of the Non- Contributing Member from Two Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,300,000) to Two Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,200,000) (i.e., $2,300,000 - $100,000 Adjustment Amount = $2,200,000), and (BB) increased in the case of the Contributing Member from Two Million Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,700,000) to Two Million Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,800,000) (i.e., $2,700,000 + $100,000 Adjustment Amount = $2,800,000), (y) the Percentage Interest of each Member would be (AA) decreased in the case of the Non-Contributing Member by six (6) percentage points from fifty percent (50%) to forty-four percent (44%) (i.e., 50% - 6% = 44%), and (BB) increased in the case of the Contributing Member by six (6) percentage points from fifty percent (50%) to fifty-six percent (56%) (i.e., 50% + 6% = 56%). After the foregoing adjustments, the ratio of the balance standing in each Member’s Unreturned Contribution Account and Capital Account to the balances standing in both Members’ Unreturned Contribution Accounts and Capital Accounts would fifty-six percent (56%) in the case of the Contributing Member (i.e., $2,800,000/$5,00,000 = 56%) and forty-four percent (44%) in the case of the Non-Contributing Member (i.e., $2,300,00/$5,000,000 = 44%) (which will the same as each Member’s Percentage Interest in the Company following the dilution under this example). (c) Implementation of Default Provisions. The Contributing Member may elect to implement the default provisions contained in Article VII by delivery of written notice of such election to the Non-Contributing Member within ninety (90) days following the Additional Contribution Date or the maturity date for any Default Loan that is not repaid prior to the maturity thereof. (d) Election of Remedy. The Contributing Member shall determine which of the options set forth in Sections 3.03(a), 3.03(b) and/or 3.03(c) are to be exercised by the Contributing Member with respect to each Delinquent Contribution. If the Contributing Member advances any amount to the Company pursuant to this Section 3.03 but fails to specify which of the foregoing options the Contributing Member has elected
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -26- within thirty (30) days after the effective date that the Contributing Member makes such advance, then such Contributing Member shall be deemed to have elected the option set forth in Section 3.03(a) above with respect to such advance. (e) Minimum Percentage Interest. Any and all adjustments to the Members' respective Percentage Interests pursuant to Section 3.03(b) shall be rounded to the nearest 1/100th of one percentage point (0.01%). In addition, notwithstanding any provision contained in this Article III, the Non-Contributing Member's Percentage Interest shall in no event be reduced below 1/100th of one percent (0.01%) by operation of Section 3.03(b). 3.04 Financing The Administrative Member shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company to procure a construction loan (the "Construction Loan") to finance the development and construction of the Improvements from one (1) or more independent third-party institutional lenders selected by the Administrative Member (individually, the "Lender" and collectively, the "Lenders") upon prevailing market terms and conditions. The Administrative Member shall also use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a permanent loan (the "Permanent Loan") from one (1) or more Lenders to refinance the Construction Loan upon prevailing market terms and conditions (and any other financing thereafter required to refinance the Permanent Loan), which shall be nonrecourse to the Members (subject to any Nonrecourse Documents described in Section 3.05 required to be provided to the Lender providing any such Permanent Loan). The Construction Loan and the Permanent Loan shall be secured by a deed of trust encumbering the Project. Any such financing and/or refinancing obtained by the Administrative Member on behalf of the Company (collectively, the "Loans") shall require the consent of the Executive Committee pursuant to Section 2.04(e). If the Company does not close the Construction Loan within ten (10) days following the approval of the annual business plan for the Company's first Business Plan Period pursuant to Section 2.07, then either Member may elect to dissolve the Company by delivering written notice of such election to the other Member pursuant to Section 12.01(c) (provided such election is made prior to the date (if any) that the Company closes the Construction Loan). 3.05 Agreement to Provide Guarantees and Indemnification Each Member and/or one (1) or more of their respective Affiliates or representatives, including, without limitation, the ultimate parent of each Member if required by the applicable Lender (collectively, the "Guarantors" and individually, a "Guarantor") shall execute and deliver to any Lender providing a Construction Loan to the Company (i) any and all repayment or completion guaranties or similar documents required by such Lender (collectively, the "Recourse Documents"), and (ii) any and all other environmental indemnities and "bad-boy" carve-out guaranties required by such Lender (collectively, the "Nonrecourse Documents") provided such Recourse Documents and Nonrecourse Documents are approved by the Executive Committee in its reasonable discretion. In addition, the Guarantors shall execute any Nonrecourse Document required by any Lender providing a Permanent Loan to the Company provided such Nonrecourse Documents are approved by the Executive Committee in its reasonable discretion.
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -27- The Administrative Member shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain each Lender's agreement that the obligation of each Guarantor under each Recourse Document and Nonrecourse Document shall be several (i.e., not joint and several) as between the Members (and their respective Affiliates) and proportionate to the Percentage Interest of each Member that is an Affiliate of such Guarantor determined as of the date any liability is incurred under any such Recourse Document or Nonrecourse Document. The Members acknowledge and agree that each Recourse Document and Nonrecourse Document executed by any Guarantor shall be executed only as an accommodation to the Company and/or the Members. The Company shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold each such Guarantor wholly harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, costs, expenses, damages and/or expenses including, without limitation, any attorneys' and expert witness fees and costs (collectively, "Losses") incurred by any such Guarantor as a result of such Recourse Document and Nonrecourse Document (or as a result of the rights of contribution described below) in accordance with the terms of Section 10.02(b). Either Member may deliver a Capital Call Notice in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02 to require the Members to make additional contributions to the capital of the Company to enable the Company to satisfy the indemnity for any Losses described in this Section 3.05. If the Company fails to fully satisfy any indemnification and/or defense obligation owing to any Member or any Guarantor affiliated with such Member pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.05, then such Guarantor ("Contributing Party") shall have a right of contribution against the other Member and the Guarantor affiliated with such Member (collectively, the "Non- Contributing Party") to the extent the liability incurred by the Contributing Party under any Recourse Document or Nonrecourse Document (for which it is entitled to be indemnified by the Company pursuant Section 10.02(b)) exceeds such Contributing Party's Pro Rata Share of the total liability incurred by all of the Guarantors under all of the Recourse Documents and Nonrecourse Documents (for which the Guarantors are entitled to be indemnified by the Company pursuant to Section 10.02(b)). The term "Pro Rata Share" means (A) with respect to Tejon and its Guarantors, an amount equal to its then Percentage Interest of the total liability incurred by all of the Guarantors under all of the Recourse Documents and Nonrecourse Documents (for which the Guarantors are entitled to be indemnified by the Company pursuant to Section 10.02(b) below), and (B) with respect to Majestic and its Guarantors, an amount equal to its then Percentage Interest of the total liability incurred by all of the Guarantors under all of the Recourse Documents and Nonrecourse Documents (for which the Guarantors are entitled to be indemnified by the Company pursuant to Section 10.02(b) below). At any time that any Contributing Party has a right of contribution against the Non- Contributing Party under this Section 3.05, the Non-Contributing Party shall be obligated to satisfy such contribution obligation by paying the required amount, in cash, within ten (10) days following written notice thereof from the Contributing Party. If any such payment is not timely and validly made within such ten (10)-day period, then from and after the date such amount was required to be paid, such amount shall bear interest at the lesser of (1) the prevailing prime commercial lending rate of Wells Fargo Bank plus five (5) percentage points, adjusted concurrently with any adjustments to such rate and compounded annually, or (2) the maximum non-usurious rate allowed by law. The Contributing Party shall also be entitled to collect from the Non-Contributing Party any and all costs and expenses of enforcing such contribution obligation including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and expert witness fees and costs.
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -28- The Members acknowledge and agree that each of the Guarantors (that are not Members) are express third-party beneficiaries of the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.05, and, as such, all of the Guarantors have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions of this Section 3.05. Each Member further agrees to cause any Guarantor affiliated with such Member to agree to be bound by the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.05 at the time such Guarantor executes and delivers any Recourse Document or Non-Recourse Document. 3.06 Capital Contributions in General Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed to in writing by all of the Members (i) no part of the contributions of any Member to the capital of the Company may be withdrawn by such Member, (ii) no Member shall be entitled to receive interest or a return on such Member's contributions to the capital of the Company, (iii) no Member shall have the right to demand or receive property other than cash in return for such Member's contribution to the Company, and (iv) no Member shall be required or be entitled to contribute additional capital to the Company other than as permitted or required by this Article III. ARTICLE IV ALLOCATION OF PROFITS AND LOSSES 4.01 Net Losses After giving effect to the special allocations in Sections 4.03 and 4.04, Net Losses for each Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the Members so as to reduce, proportionately, the differences between their respective Target Capital Accounts and Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts for such Fiscal Year. No portion of the Net Losses for any taxable year shall be allocated to a Member whose Partially Adjusted Capital Account is less than or equal to such Member's Target Capital Account for such Fiscal Year. 4.02 Net Profits After giving effect to the special allocations in Sections 4.03 and 4.04, Net Profits for each Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the Members so as to reduce, proportionately, the differences between their respective Target Capital Accounts and Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts for such Fiscal Year. No portion of the Net Profits for any taxable year shall be allocated to a Member whose Partially Adjusted Capital Account is greater than or equal to such Member's Target Capital Account for such Fiscal Year. 4.03 Special Allocations Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no Net Losses or items of expense, loss or deduction shall be allocated to any Member to the extent such an allocation would cause or increase a deficit balance standing in such Member's Adjusted Capital Account and any such Net Losses and items of expense, loss and deduction shall instead be allocated to the Members in proportion to their respective "interests" in the Company as determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b). In addition, items of income and gain shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with and to the extent required by the qualified income offset provisions set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). Notwithstanding
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -29- any other provision in this Article IV, (i) any and all "partnership nonrecourse deductions" (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) of the Company for any Fiscal Year or other period shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests; (ii) any and all "partner nonrecourse deductions" (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(2)) attributable to any "partner nonrecourse debt" (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(4)) shall be allocated to the Member that bears the "economic risk of loss" (as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-2) for such "partner nonrecourse debt" in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(l); (iii) each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in accordance with the partnership minimum gain chargeback requirements set forth in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f) and 1.704-2(g); and (iv) each Member with a share of minimum gain attributable to any "partner nonrecourse debt" shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in accordance with the partner minimum gain chargeback requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(i)(5). Any and all "excess nonrecourse liabilities" as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-3(a)(3) shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests. 4.04 Curative Allocations The allocations set forth in Section 4.03 (the "Regulatory Allocations") are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory 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 4.04. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Administrative Member is hereby authorized to make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner it reasonably determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Member's Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of this Agreement and all Company items were allocated pursuant to Sections 4.01 and 4.02. In exercising its discretion under this Section 4.04, the Administrative Member shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Section 4.03, that are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made under the provisions of this Section 4.04. 4.05 Differing Tax Basis; Tax Allocation Depreciation and/or cost recovery deductions and gain or loss with respect to each item of property treated as contributed to the capital of the Company shall be allocated between the Members for federal income tax purposes in accordance with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and for state income tax purposes in accordance with comparable provisions of the California Revenue & Taxation Code, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, so as to take into account the variation, if any, between the adjusted tax basis of such property and its book value (as determined for purposes of the maintenance of Capital Accounts in accordance with this Agreement and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g)).
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -30- ARTICLE V DISTRIBUTION OF CASH FLOW 5.01 Cash Flow Subject to Section 12.02, Cash Flow of the Company shall be determined and distributed on a quarterly basis (or at such other times as are determined by the Executive Committee), in the following order of priority: (a) Unreturned Contribution Accounts. First, to the Members in proportion to, and to the extent of, the positive balances standing in their respective Unreturned Contribution Accounts, if any; and (b) Percentage Interests. Thereafter, to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests. 5.02 Limitations on Distributions Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not make a distribution of Cash Flow (or other proceeds) to any Member if such distribution would violate Section 18-607 of the Delaware Act or other applicable law. 5.03 Withholding If the Company is obligated to withhold and pay any taxes with respect to any Member, then any tax required to be withheld may be withheld from any distribution otherwise payable to such Member. Any such amounts withheld and remitted to the appropriate tax authority shall be deemed to have been distributed to the applicable Member and applied by such Member in payment of such tax liability. 5.04 In-Kind Distribution Assets of the Company (other than cash) shall not be distributed in kind to the Members without the prior written approval of the Members. ARTICLE VI RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS OF COMPANY INTERESTS 6.01 Limitations on Transfer Except as otherwise set forth in Section 3.03, this Article VI, Article VII and Article VIII, no Member shall be entitled to sell, exchange, assign, transfer, or otherwise dispose of, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise grant a security interest in (collectively, the "Transfer"), directly or indirectly, all or any part of such Member's Interest in the Company or withdraw or retire from the Company, without the prior written consent of the other Member, which consent may be withheld in such other Member's sole and absolute discretion. Any transfer of a direct or indirect interest in any Member shall be deemed to be a Transfer for purposes of this Agreement, provided, however, that any transfer of a direct or indirect interest in a Member resulting from the
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -31- death of such interest holder, the transfer by such interest holder to a trust of which the interest holder and/or his or her spouse is/are the sole current income beneficiaries or the termination of a trust which is an interest holder shall not be deemed a Transfer for purposes of this Agreement. Any attempted Transfer or withdrawal in violation of the restrictions set forth in this Article VI shall be null and void ab initio and of no force or effect to the maximum extent allowed by law. 6.02 Permitted Transfers Any Member may Transfer all or any portion of such Member's Interest in the Company to any of the following (collectively, "Permitted Transferees") without complying with the provisions of Section 6.01: (a) Affiliates. In the case of either Member, to any Affiliate of such Member provided the original transferring Member (that executed this Agreement) or its direct or indirect owners at all times thereafter own fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting and beneficial interests in such Affiliate; (b) Stock Transfers. In the case of any direct and/or indirect owner of any Member that is a publicly traded corporation (including, without limitation, any shareholder of Tejon Ranch Co., a Delaware corporation), to any Person; (c) Transfers of Direct or Indirect Interests in Majestic. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 6.02(c), (i) any direct or indirect ownership interest in Majestic may be transferred to any Person provided following such transfer (A) Edward P. Roski, Jr. ("Roski") (individually and/or in his capacity as trustee of a trust) directly or indirectly controls Majestic, and (B) Majestic Realty Co., a California corporation ("MRC"), and/or Roski (individually and/or in his capacity as trustee of a trust) own(s), in the aggregate, directly or indirectly, at least thirty percent (30%) of Majestic, and (ii) any direct or indirect ownership interest in Majestic may be transferred to any member of the Roski Family provided that (A) prior to Roski's death or incapacity, Roski or any one (1) or more other members of the Roski Family remains (individually and/or in his capacity as trustee of a trust), directly or indirectly, in control of Majestic, and (B) following Roski's death or incapacity, one (1) or more members of the Roski Family control Majestic. The term "Roski Family" means Roski, his spouse, their lineal descendants and their spouses, any trust or estate for the benefit of any such party, and any entity owned or controlled (ownership and voting interests of 50% or more) by such parties. As used in this Section 6.02(c), the terms "control," "controls" and "controlling" mean the possession by any Person, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of another Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whether or not a transfer of any direct or indirect ownership interest in Majestic occurs, Majestic shall not be permitted to allow any Person other than Roski or one (1) or more other members of the Roski Family (individually and/or in such individual's capacity as trustee of a trust) to control, directly or indirectly, Majestic; (d) Tejon Ranchcorp Multi-Asset Transfer. In the case of Tejon, a transfer of all, but not less than all, of its Interest in the Company as part of a transaction in which
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -32- one (1) or more members of the Tejon Group (as defined below) in a single transaction or series of related transactions transfer five (5) or more of its Real Estate Assets (as defined below) with a gross asset value of at least Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000). For this purpose, the term (i) "Tejon Group" means all corporations, partnerships and limited liability companies in which Tejon Ranchcorp and/or any Affiliate thereof owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the ownership and voting interests; and (ii) "Real Estate Assets" means direct or indirect interests in any commercial or industrial real property of any type, wherever located; (e) Majestic Multi-Asset Transfer. In the case of Majestic, a transfer of all, but not less than all, of its Interest in the Company as part of a transaction in which one (1) or more members of the Majestic Group (as defined below) in a single transaction or series of related transactions transfer five (5) or more of its Real Estate Assets with a gross asset value of at least Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000). For this purpose, the term "Majestic Group" means all corporations, partnerships and limited liability companies in which the Roski Family owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the ownership and voting interests; (f) Transfers as a Result of Foreclosure. In the case of either Member, to any Person that acquires an Interest in the Company pursuant to Section 6.08 below as the result of the exercise of any rights or remedies under Section 3.03(a); and (g) Right of First Refusal. In the case of either Member, to any Person provided (i) such Transfer is made after the Project Stabilization Date, (ii) such Transfer is for the transferring Member's entire Interest in the Company, and (iii) the transferring Member fully complies with the provisions of Exhibit "H." Any such Permitted Transferee shall receive and hold such ownership interest or portion thereof subject to the terms of this Agreement and to the obligations hereunder of the transferor. There shall be no further transfer of such ownership interest or portion thereof except to a Person to whom the original transferor could have transferred such ownership interest in accordance with this Section 6.02. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no transfer described in Section 6.02 shall be permitted if the consummation of such transfer would result in (i) the Company being obligated to pay any documentary transfer taxes, unless the transferring Member promptly reimburses the Company for the payment of all such documentary transfer taxes, or (ii) a breach or violation of any transfer restrictions contained in the loan documentation (and/or guaranty) relative to any indebtedness encumbering all or any portion of the Project and/or any other agreement governing the Company, unless such transfer restrictions are waived by the non- transferring Member, the applicable lender and/or the parties to such agreement, as the case may be (provided payment by the transferring Partner or its transferee of applicable lender fees and charges to effect such transfer shall not constitute a violation).
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -33- 6.03 Admission of Substituted Members If any Member transfers such Member's Interest to a transferee in accordance with Sections 6.01 and/or 6.02 above, then such transferee shall only be entitled to be admitted into the Company as a substituted member (and this Agreement shall be amended in accordance with the Delaware Act to reflect such admission), if: (i) the non-transferring Member reasonably approves the form and content of the instrument of transfer; (ii) the transferor and transferee named therein execute and acknowledge such other instruments as the non-transferring Member may deem reasonably necessary to effectuate such admission; (iii) the transferee in writing accepts and adopts all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as the same may have been amended; and (iv) the transferor pays, as the non-transferring Member may reasonably determine, all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such admission, including, without limitation, legal fees and costs. To the maximum extent permitted by law, any assignee of an Interest who does not become a substituted member shall have no right to require any information or account of the Company's transactions, to inspect the Company books, or to vote on any of the matters as to which a member would be entitled to vote under this Agreement. An assignee shall only be entitled to share in such Net Profits and Net Losses, to receive such distributions, and to receive such allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit or similar items to which the assignor was entitled, to the extent assigned. A Member that transfers such Member's Interest shall not cease to be a member of the Company until the admission of the assignee as a substituted member. 6.04 Election; Allocations between Transferor and Transferee Upon the transfer of the Interest of any Member or the distribution of any property of the Company to a Member, the Company shall file an election in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations, to cause the basis of the Company property to be adjusted for federal income tax purposes as provided by Sections 734 and 743 of the Code. Upon the transfer of all or any part of the Interest of a Member as hereinabove provided, Net Profits and Net Losses shall be allocated between the transferor and transferee on the basis of a computation method that is in conformity with the methods prescribed by Section 706 of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.706- 1(c)(2)(ii). 6.05 Partition No Member shall have the right to partition any assets of the Company or any interest therein, nor shall a Member make application or proceeding for a partition thereto and, upon any breach of the provisions of this Section 6.05 by any Member, the other Member (in addition to all rights and remedies afforded by law or equity) shall be entitled to a decree or order restraining or enjoining such application, action or proceeding. 6.06 Waiver of Withdrawal and Purchase Rights Except in connection with any transfer permitted in accordance with this Agreement, no Member may voluntarily withdraw, resign or retire from the Company without the prior written consent of the other Member, which consent may be withheld in such other Member's sole and absolute discretion. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Member hereby waives any and all rights such Member may have to withdraw and/or resign from the Company pursuant to
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -34- Section 18-603 of the Delaware Act and hereby waives any and all rights such Member may have to receive the fair value of such Member's Interest in the Company upon such resignation and/or withdrawal pursuant to Section 18-604 of the Delaware Act. 6.07 No Appraisal Rights Unless otherwise determined by the Members, none of the Members shall have any appraisal rights with respect to their Interests pursuant to Section 18-210 of the Delaware Act or otherwise. 6.08 Foreclosure of Interest Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, upon a foreclosure, sale or other transfer of any Interest in the Company pursuant to any security interest granted pursuant to Section 3.03(a), the holder of such Interest shall, upon the execution of a counterpart to Agreement (or an amendment thereto), automatically be admitted as a substituted member of the Company upon such foreclosure, sale or other transfer, with all of the rights and obligations thereof permitted hereunder. The Company acknowledges that the pledge of any Interest in the Company pursuant to Section 3.03(a) shall be a pledge not only of Net Profits and Net Losses of the Company, but also a pledge of all rights and obligations of the pledgor thereunder. Upon a foreclosure, sale or other transfer of any Interest in the Company pursuant to Section 3.03(a), the successor member may transfer its Interest in the Company in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision in the Delaware Act or any other provision contained herein to the contrary, the pledgor under Section 3.03(a) shall be permitted to pledge and, upon any foreclosure of such pledge in connection with the admission of the secured party or other holder as a substituted member, to transfer to the secured party or other holder its rights and obligations to the Company pursuant to the terms of such pledge agreement. ARTICLE VII MEMBER DEFAULT 7.01 Default Events For purposes of this Article VII, the following shall constitute "Default Events": (a) Breach of Agreement. The breach of any material covenant, duty or obligation under this Agreement by any Member (other than a breach described in Section 7.01(b) or 7.01(c) for which there shall be no cure period) if (i) the breaching Member has received written notice from the other Member of the breach, and (ii) (A) the breach is not reasonably susceptible of being cured, or (B) if the breach is reasonably susceptible of being cured, the breaching Member has failed to commence the cure or remedy of the breach within fifteen (15) days following the effective date of the notice and failed to complete the cure or remedy within a reasonable period of time (not to exceed 60 days), unless the cure or remedy cannot be reasonably completed within such sixty (60)- day period and the breaching Member fails to diligently proceed with the cure or remedy to completion within an additional forty-five (45) days following the expiration of such initial sixty (60)-day period;
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -35- (b) Capital Default. The failure of a Member to make timely a contribution required to be made pursuant to Section 3.02, or to timely repay any Default Loan in accordance with Section 3.03(a), followed by the election of the Contributing Member to treat such failure as a Default Event pursuant to Section 3.03(c); (c) Prohibited Transfer, Encumbrance or Withdrawal. A Transfer or attempted Transfer by a Member of such Member's Interest in the Company (or portion thereof) or withdrawal or attempted withdrawal by a Member contrary to the provisions of Article VI; (d) Bankruptcy or Insolvency. The rendering, by a court with appropriate jurisdiction, of a decree or order (i) adjudging a Member bankrupt or insolvent, or (ii) approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, readjustment, arrangement, composition, or similar relief for a Member under the federal bankruptcy laws or any other similar applicable law or practice, provided that such decree or order shall remain in force, undischarged and unstayed, for a period of ninety (90) days; (e) Appointment of Receiver. The rendering, by a court with appropriate jurisdiction, of a decree or order (i) for the appointment of a receiver, a liquidator, or a trustee or assignee in bankruptcy or insolvency of a Member, or for the winding up and liquidation of such Member's affairs, provided that such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged and unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days, or (ii) for the sequestration or attachment of any property of a Member without its return to the possession of such Member or its release from such sequestration or attachment within sixty (60) days thereafter; or (f) Bankruptcy Proceedings. A Member (i) institutes proceedings to be adjudicated a voluntary bankrupt or an insolvent, (ii) consents to the filing of a bankruptcy proceeding against such Member, (iii) files a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization, readjustment, arrangement, composition, or similar relief for such Member under the federal bankruptcy laws or any other similar applicable law or practice, (iv) consents to the filing of any such petition, or to the appointment of a receiver, a liquidator, or a trustee or assignee in bankruptcy or insolvency for such Member or a substantial part of such Member's property, (v) makes an assignment for the benefit of such Member's creditors, (vi) is unable to or admits in writing such Member's inability to pay such Member's debts generally as they become due, or (vii) takes any action in furtherance of any of the aforesaid purposes. For the purposes of implementing the provisions contained in this Article VII, the "Defaulting Member" shall be: (i) in the case of the event referenced in Section 7.01(a), the Member that has breached any material covenant, duty or obligation under this Agreement; (ii) in the case of the event referenced in Section 7.01(b), the Non-Contributing Member; (iii) in the case of the occurrence of the event referenced in Section 7.01(c), the Member that has transferred such Member's rights or interests or withdrawn from the Company contrary to the provisions of Article VI; and (iv) in the case of the occurrence of any of the events referenced in Sections 7.01(d), (e) and/or (f), the Member that is the subject of such court decree or order or has instituted such proceedings or filed such petitions or who is insolvent, etc. The term "Non-
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -36- Defaulting Member" shall mean the Member that is not the Defaulting Member. For the avoidance of doubt, any default by an Affiliate of a Member under any agreement between such Affiliate and the Company shall not constitute a Default Event by the Member under this Agreement. A Member shall cease to be a Defaulting Member solely for purposes of this Article VII following the occurrence of a Default Event with respect to such Member if the Non- Defaulting Member fails to deliver a Default Notice within the sixty (60)-day or ninety (90)-day periods, as the case may be, set forth in Section 7.02, following the occurrence of such Default Event. 7.02 Rights Arising From a Default Event Within sixty (60) days after the date that the Non-Defaulting Member is aware of the occurrence of an uncured Default Event (or ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any default described in Section 7.01(b)) the Non-Defaulting Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to implement the default procedures set forth in this Article VII by delivering written notice ("Default Notice") thereof to the Defaulting Member. Failure of a Non-Defaulting Member to deliver a Default Notice within such sixty (60)-day or ninety (90)-day period shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to deliver a Default Notice upon the occurrence of any subsequent Default Event. 7.03 Determination of Defaulting Member's Purchase Price Within thirty (30) days after the determination of the Appraised Value of the assets of the Company, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of cash which would be distributed to each Member if (i) the assets of the Company were sold for the Appraised Value thereof as of the effective date of the Default Notice; (ii) the liabilities of the Company were liquidated pursuant to Section 12.02(a); (iii) a reasonable reserve for any contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations of the Company was established by the Non-Defaulting Member pursuant to Section 12.02(b); and (iv) any remaining amounts (including, without limitation, any cash proceeds of the Company) were distributed to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.02(c). Upon such determination, the Accounting Firm shall give each Member written notice ("Accountant's Notice") thereof. The determination by the Accounting Firm of such amounts, including all components thereof, shall be deemed conclusive absent any material computational error. In the case of a Default Event described in Section 7.01(a), (b) or (c), ninety percent (90%), and in the case of any other Default Event, one hundred percent (100%), of the amount which would be distributed to the Defaulting Member pursuant to Section 12.02(c) shall be deemed the purchase price for the Defaulting Member's Interest (the "Defaulting Member's Purchase Price") for purposes of this Article VII; subject, however, to adjustment for any Default Loans as provided in Section 7.09. (a) Determination of Appraised Value. For purposes of this Article VII, the appraised value ("Appraised Value") of the assets of the Company shall be determined as follows: The Appraised Value shall be determined by one (1) or more independent qualified M.A.I. appraisers with at least five (5) years' experience appraising industrial real estate projects. The Non-Defaulting Member shall select one (1) appraiser and shall include such selection in the Default Notice. Within fifteen (15) Business Days following the effective date of the Default Notice, the Defaulting Member shall either agree to the
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -37- appraiser selected by the Non-Defaulting Member or select a second (2nd) appraiser and give written notice to the Non-Defaulting Member of the person so selected. If either the Non-Defaulting Member or the Defaulting Member fails to appoint such an appraiser within the time period specified and after the expiration of five (5) Business Days following the effective date of written demand that an appraiser be appointed, then the appraiser duly appointed by the Member making such demand to appoint such appraiser shall proceed to make the appraisal as herein set forth, and the determination thereof shall be conclusive on both of the Members. If two (2) appraisers are selected, then such selected appraisers shall thereafter appoint a third (3rd) appraiser. If the two (2) selected appraisers fail to appoint a third (3rd) appraiser within ten (10) Business Days following the effective date of written notice from the Defaulting Member notifying the Non-Defaulting Member of the selection of the second (2nd) appraiser, then any Member may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a third (3rd) appraiser, in the same manner as provided for the appointment of an arbitrator pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1281.6. The appraiser or three (3) appraisers, as the case may be, shall promptly determine a date for the completion of the appraisal, which shall not be later than sixty (60) days from the effective date of the appointment of the last appraiser. The appraiser(s) shall determine the Appraised Value by determining the fair market value of the assets of the Company, such fair market value being the fairest price estimated in the terms of money which the Company could obtain if such assets were sold in the open market allowing a reasonable time to find a purchaser who purchases with knowledge of the business of the Company at the time of the occurrence of the Default Event. Upon submission of the appraisals setting forth the opinions as to the Appraised Value of the assets of the Company, the two (2) such appraisals which are nearest in amount shall be retained, and the third (3rd) appraisal shall be discarded. The average of the two (2) retained appraisals shall constitute the Appraised Value of the assets of the Company for purposes of this Article VII; unless one (1) appraisal is the mean of the other two (2) appraisals, in which case such appraisal shall constitute the Appraised Value of the assets of the Company for purposes of this Article VII. (b) Payment of Costs. Except as provided below, the Non-Defaulting Member shall pay for the services of the appraiser appointed by such Member, and the Defaulting Member shall pay for the services of the appraiser appointed by such Member. The cost of the services of the third (3rd) appraiser, if any, shall be paid one-half (½) by the Non-Defaulting Member, on the one hand, and one-half (½) by the Defaulting Member, on the other hand. The costs of the services of the Accounting Firm and, in the event only one (1) appraiser is required, the cost of the services of such appraiser, shall be paid one- half (½) by the Non-Defaulting Member, on the one hand, and one-half (½) by the Defaulting Member, on the other hand.
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -38- 7.04 Non-Defaulting Members' Option For a period of thirty (30) days after the effective date of the Accountant's Notice, the Non- Defaulting Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to purchase the entire Interest of the Defaulting Member for the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price, and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Article VII by giving written notice of such election to the Defaulting Member within such thirty (30)-day period. Failure by the Non-Defaulting Member to timely give written notice exercising such Member's right to elect to purchase set forth in this Section 7.04 shall be deemed an election by such Member to waive such right to purchase with respect to the particular Default Event that triggered the application of the provisions of this Article VII. 7.05 Closing Adjustments Within five (5) days before the actual date of the closing pursuant to Section 7.06 below, the Accounting Firm shall recalculate the amount of cash which would be distributed to each Member pursuant to Section 12.02(c), if such amount were determined as of the closing date under Section 7.06 (in lieu of the effective date of the Default Notice) taking into account any contributions and/or distributions made after the effective date of the Default Notice. Upon such determination, the Accounting Firm shall give each Member written notice ("Adjusted Accountant's Notice") thereof. The Accounting Firm shall reasonably and in good faith adjust the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price, if and to the extent necessary, to take into account the adjustments described in the Adjusted Accountant's Notice and to take into account appropriate prorations that would have been made if there had been an actual sale of the Project to a third party as of the date of the closing under Section 7.06. 7.06 Closing of Purchase and Sale The closing of a purchase and sale pursuant to this Article VII shall be held at the principal office of the Company in California on a Business Day designated by the Non-Defaulting Member that is not later than sixty (60) days after the expiration of the thirty (30)-day period set forth in Section 7.04. The Defaulting Member shall transfer to the purchasing Non-Defaulting Member (or such Member's nominee(s)) the entire Interest of the Defaulting Member free and clear of all liens, security interests, and competing claims and shall deliver to the Non-Defaulting Member (or such Member's nominee(s)) such instruments of transfer and such evidence of due authorization, execution, and delivery, and of the absence of any such liens, security interests, or competing claims as the Non-Defaulting Member (or such Member's nominee(s)) shall reasonably request. 7.07 Representations and Warranties At the closing, the Defaulting Member shall represent and warrant to the Non-Defaulting Member that the sale of the Defaulting Member's Interest to the Non-Defaulting Member (or its nominee) (i) does not violate, conflict with, or result in a breach of any provisions of, or constitute a material default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a material default) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, security or pledge agreement, license, lease, franchise, permit, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Defaulting Member is a party (exclusive of any such
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -39- agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party), or (ii) violate any judgment, ruling, order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Defaulting Member or any of the other properties or assets of the Defaulting Member. The Defaulting Member shall also represent and warrant to the Non-Defaulting Member at such closing that no notice to, declaration, filing or registration with, or authorization, consent or approval, or permit from, any domestic or foreign governmental regulatory body or authority, or any Person, is necessary in connection with the sale of its Interest to the Non-Defaulting Member. 7.08 Payment of Defaulting Member's Purchase Price The Non-Defaulting Member shall pay (or cause to be paid) the entire Defaulting Member's Purchase Price by delivering at the closing a confirmed wire transfer of readily available funds or one (1) or more certified or bank cashier's checks made payable to the order of the Defaulting Member. 7.09 Repayment of Default Loans The Defaulting Member's Purchase Price shall be offset at the closing of such purchase by the then unpaid principal balance of any and all Default Loan(s) (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the Non-Defaulting Member to the Defaulting Member. Such Default Loan(s) (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) shall be deemed paid to the extent of such offset, with such deemed payment to be applied first to the accrued interest thereon and thereafter to the payment of the outstanding principal amount thereof. If the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price is insufficient to fully offset the then unpaid principal balance of any and all Default Loans (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the Non-Defaulting Member to the Defaulting Member, then the portion of any such Default Loan(s) (and accrued, unpaid interest thereon) that remains outstanding following such offset shall be required to be paid by the Defaulting Member at the closing referenced in Section 7.06. Also, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the unpaid balance of any and all Default Loan(s) (including all outstanding principal amounts thereof and all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the Defaulting Member to the Non-Defaulting Member be required to be paid by the Non-Defaulting Member at the closing referenced in Section 7.06. 7.10 Release and Indemnity On or before the closing of a purchase and sale held pursuant to this Article VII, the Non- Defaulting Member shall use such Member's reasonable and good faith efforts to obtain written releases of the Defaulting Member and the Defaulting Member's Affiliates from all liabilities under all Recourse Documents and Nonrecourse Documents and all other liabilities of the Company for which the Defaulting Member and/or its Affiliates may have personal liability, except to the extent such liabilities arise out of any Bad Acts or Prohibited Transfer (as such terms are defined in Section 10.02(a) below) of such Defaulting Member or any Affiliate thereof. To the extent the Non-Defaulting Member is unable to obtain such releases on or before the closing, the Non- Defaulting Member and an Affiliate of the Non-Defaulting Member with a net worth reasonably acceptable to the Defaulting Member shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold the Defaulting Member and its Affiliates wholly harmless from and against all such liabilities and guaranties, except to the extent such liabilities arise out of any Bad Acts or Prohibited Transfer of
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -40- the Defaulting Member or any Affiliate thereof. For purposes of clarification, the release, indemnity and related provisions set forth above in this Section 7.10 shall not apply to any Losses which are incurred by the Defaulting Member or its Affiliates to the extent such liabilities arise under an Affiliate Agreement. 7.11 Withdrawal of the Defaulting Member If the Interest of the Defaulting Member is purchased by the Non-Defaulting Member (or its nominee) pursuant to this Article VII, then, effective as of the closing for such purchase, the Defaulting Member shall withdraw as a member of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any indemnity of the Defaulting Member and its Affiliates provided for under this Agreement including, without limitation, under Section 10.02(b) shall survive the sale of the Interest of the Defaulting Member and its withdrawal as a member of the Company. 7.12 Distribution of Reserves Within one (1) year following the closing of the purchase of the entire Interest of the Defaulting Member in the Company pursuant to this Article VII, the Non-Defaulting Member shall pay to the Defaulting Member an amount equal to the difference between the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price determined pursuant to Section 7.03 and the amount that the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price would have been equal to if (i) no reserves had been established or deducted in calculating the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price, and (ii) the amount used in determining the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price under Section 7.03 had been reduced by the aggregate amount of any contingent, unmatured or conditional liabilities of the Company (for which such reserve was established) that were actually paid by the Company during such one (1)-year period. ARTICLE VIII ELECTIVE BUY/SELL AGREEMENT 8.01 Buy/Sell Election Either Member that is not a Defaulting Member (the "Electing Member") shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time after the Lockout Date or an Impasse Event to elect to implement the buy/sell procedures set forth in this Article VIII by delivering written notice of such election ("Election Notice") to the other Member (the "Non-Electing Member"). The term "Lockout Date" means the earlier of (i) six (6) months after the Project Stabilization Date, or (ii) three (3) years after the Effective Date. The Election Notice shall set forth a stated value (the "Stated Value"), as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Electing Member, for all of the assets of the Company. For purposes of this Article VIII, a Member shall not be deemed to be a Defaulting Member after the expiration of the sixty (60)-day or ninety (90)-day period, as the case may be, set forth in Section 7.02. 8.02 Determination of the Purchase Price Within ten (10) Business Days following the effective date of any Election Notice (or as soon as reasonably possible thereafter), the Accounting Firm shall determine the aggregate amount of cash which would be distributed to each Member if (i) the assets of the Company were sold for their Stated Value as of the effective date of the Election Notice; (ii) the known non-contingent
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -41- liabilities of the Company (exclusive of any prepayment penalties payable with respect to any Loan obtained by the Company) were liquidated pursuant to Section 12.02(a); (iii) a reserve was not established for any contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations of the Company pursuant to Section 12.02(b); and (iv) any remaining amounts were distributed to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.02(c). Upon such determination, the Accounting Firm shall give each Member written notice ("Price Determination Notice") thereof. The determination by the Accounting Firm of such amounts including all components thereof, shall be deemed conclusive on all of the Members, absent any material computational error. One hundred percent (100%) of the amount that would be distributed to each Member pursuant to Section 12.02(c) shall be deemed the purchase price ("Purchase Price") for such Member's Interest for purposes of this Article VIII; subject, however, to adjustment for any Default Loans described in Section 8.08. 8.03 Non-Electing Member's Option For a period of thirty (30) days following the effective date of the Price Determination Notice, the Non-Electing Member shall have the option to elect by delivering written notice (the "Purchase Notice") of such election to the Electing Member within such thirty (30)-day period, either (i) to purchase the Electing Member's entire Interest for the Purchase Price thereof, or (ii) to sell such Non-Electing Member's entire Interest to the Electing Member for the Purchase Price thereof. Failure of the Non-Electing Member to timely and validly make an election in accordance with this Section 8.03 shall constitute an election by such Non-Electing Member to sell such Non-Electing Member's entire Interest for the Purchase Price thereof to the Electing Member. 8.04 Deposit WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE THIRTY (30)-DAY OPTION PERIOD SET FORTH IN SECTION 8.03, THE BUYING MEMBER SHALL DEPOSIT INTO AN ESCROW ACCOUNT ESTABLISHED BY THE BUYING MEMBER WITH A NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED TITLE COMPANY, A DEPOSIT (THE "DEPOSIT") BY A WIRE TRANSFER OF IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FEDERAL FUNDS IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO FIVE PERCENT (5%) OF THE PURCHASE PRICE, WHICH SHALL BE NON-REFUNDABLE TO THE BUYING MEMBER IF THE CLOSING OF THE SALE FAILS TO OCCUR AS A RESULT OF THE BUYING MEMBER'S DEFAULT. UPON THE CLOSING OF THE SALE, THE DEPOSIT SHALL BE A CREDIT AGAINST THE PURCHASE PRICE. SUBJECT TO SECTION 8.10, IF THE SALE FAILS TO OCCUR DUE TO THE BUYING MEMBER'S DEFAULT, THEN THE SELLING MEMBER SHALL RETAIN THE DEPOSIT OF THE BUYING MEMBER AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, AS ITS SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AT LAW IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH DEFAULT. THE MEMBERS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ESTIMATE THE DAMAGES WHICH THE SELLING MEMBER MAY SUFFER IN CONNECTION WITH A DEFAULT BY THE BUYING MEMBER UNDER THIS ARTICLE VIII. THEREFORE, SUBJECT TO SECTION 8.10, THE MEMBERS HAVE AGREED THAT A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE TOTAL NET DETRIMENT THAT THE SELLING MEMBER WOULD SUFFER IN SUCH EVENT IS AND SHALL BE THE RIGHT OF THE SELLING MEMBER TO RETAIN THE DEPOSIT AS LIQUIDATED
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -42- DAMAGES, AS ITS SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AT LAW UNDER THIS ARTICLE VIII. THE MEMBERS EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE RETENTION OF THE DEPOSIT IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF DELAWARE LAW (OR CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 3375 OR 3369 OR UNDER ANY OTHER STATE LAWS TO THE EXTENT DELAWARE LAW DOES NOT APPLY), BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO THE SELLING MEMBER PURSUANT TO DELAWARE LAW (OR CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677 OR UNDER ANY OTHER STATE LAWS TO THE EXTENT DELAWARE LAW DOES NOT APPLY). NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL LIMIT OR OTHERWISE AFFECT ANY RIGHTS THE SELLING MEMBER MAY HAVE TO OBTAIN SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE AND, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OTHER EQUITABLE REMEDIES. THE MEMBERS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN ADVISED BY THEIR COUNSEL WITH RESPECT TO THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 8.04 AND BY THEIR INITIALS SET FORTH BELOW INDICATE THAT THE FOREGOING REMEDIES ARE FAIR AND REASONABLE AND AGREE AND COVENANT NOT TO CONTEST THE VALIDITY OF SUCH REMEDY AS A PENALTY, FORFEITURE OR OTHERWISE IN ANY COURT OF LAW (AND/OR IN ANY ARBITRATION PROCEEDING). AL JR INITIALS OF TEJON ER BT TS INITIALS OF MAJESTIC 8.05 Closing Adjustments Within five (5) days before the actual date of the closing pursuant to Section 8.06 below, the Accounting Firm shall recalculate the amount of cash which would be distributed to each Member pursuant to Section 12.02(c) if such amount were determined as of the closing date under Section 8.06 (in lieu of the effective date of the Election Notice) taking into account any contributions and/or distributions that occur after the effective date of the Election Notice. Upon such determination, the Accounting Firm shall give each Member written notice ("Adjusted Price Determination Notice") thereof. The Accounting Firm shall reasonably and in good faith adjust the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price, if and to the extent necessary, to take into account the adjustments described in the Adjusted Price Determination Notice and to take into account appropriate prorations that would have been made if there had been an actual sale of the Project to a third party. 8.06 Closing of Purchase and Sale The closing of a purchase and sale held pursuant to this Article VIII shall be held at the principal office of the Company on a Business Day designated by the buying Member within sixty (60) days following the earlier of (i) the effective date upon which the Non-Electing Member has delivered the Purchase Notice pursuant to Section 8.03, or (ii) the expiration of the thirty (30)-day option period set forth in Section 8.03. The selling Member shall transfer to the buying Member (or the buying Member's nominee(s)) the entire Interest of the selling Member free and clear of all liens, security interests, and competing claims and shall deliver to the buying Member (or the buying Member's nominee(s)) such instruments of transfer and such evidence of due authorization, execution, and delivery, and of the absence of any such liens, security interests, or competing
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -43- claims, as the buying Member (or the buying Member's nominee(s)) shall reasonably request. The Purchase Price for the selling Member's Interest shall be paid by the buying Member by delivering at the closing of a confirmed wire transfer of readily available funds or one (1) or more certified or bank cashier's checks made payable to the selling Member in an amount equal to the Purchase Price, less the amount of the Deposit paid by the buying Member pursuant to Section 8.04 above (which shall be released to the selling Member at the closing). Effective as of the closing for the purchase of the selling Member's Interest, the selling Member shall withdraw as a member of the Company. In connection with any such withdrawal, the buying Member may cause any nominee designated in the sole and absolute discretion of such Member to be admitted as a substituted member of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any indemnity of the selling Member and its Affiliates provided for under this Agreement including, without limitation, under Section 10.02(b) shall survive the sale of the Interest of the selling Member and its withdrawal as a member of the Company. 8.07 Representations and Warranties At the closing, the selling Member shall represent and warrant to the buying Member that the sale of the selling Member's Interest to the buying Member (or its nominee) (i) does not violate, conflict with, or result in a breach of any provisions of, or constitute a material default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a material default) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, security or pledge agreement, license, lease, franchise, permit, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the selling Member is a party (exclusive of any such agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party), or (ii) violate any judgment, ruling, order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the selling Member or any of the other properties or assets of the selling Member (exclusive of its Interest in the Company). The selling Member shall also represent and warrant to the buying Member at such closing that no notice to, declaration, filing or registration with, or authorization, consent or approval, or permit from, any domestic or foreign governmental regulatory body or authority, or any Person, is necessary in connection with the sale of its Interest to the buying Member. 8.08 Repayment of Default Loans The Purchase Price shall be offset at the closing of such purchase by the then unpaid principal balance of any and all Default Loan(s) (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the buying Member to the selling Member. Such Default Loan(s) (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) shall be deemed paid to the extent of such offset, with such deemed payment to be applied first to the accrued interest thereon and thereafter to the payment of the outstanding principal amount thereof. If the Purchase Price is insufficient to fully offset the then unpaid principal balance of any and all Default Loan(s) (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the buying Member to the selling Member, then the portion of any such Default Loan(s) (and accrued, unpaid interest thereon) that remains outstanding following such offset shall be required to be paid by the selling Member at the closing referenced in Section 8.06. Also, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the unpaid balance of any and all Default Loan(s) (including all outstanding principal amounts thereof and all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the selling Member to the buying Member shall be required to be paid by the buying Member at the closing referenced in Section 8.06.

To the extent the buying Member is unable to obtain such releases on or before the closing, the buying Member and an Affiliate of the buying Member with a net worth reasonably acceptable to the selling Member shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold the selling Member and its Affiliates wholly harmless from and against all such liabilities and guaranties, except to the extent such liabilities arise out of any Bad Acts or Prohibited Transfer of such selling Member or any Affiliate thereof. For purposes of clarification, the release, indemnity and related provisions set forth above in this Section 8.09 shall not apply to any Losses which are incurred by the Defaulting Member or its Affiliates to the extent such liabilities arise under an Affiliate Agreement. 8.10 Interim Event of Default If the buying Member breaches its obligation under this Article VIII to timely and validly close the purchase of the selling Member's Interest, then (i) the buying Member shall not have any further right to deliver an Election Notice pursuant to Section 8.01 for a period of one (1) year after the date of such default, and (ii) the selling Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to purchase the Interest of the buying Member by delivering a Purchase Notice to such buying Member within thirty (30) days following such default. If the selling Member makes the election described in clause (ii) above, then the Purchase Price for the buying Member's Interest shall be ninety percent (90%) of the amount that was otherwise determined under Section 8.02 and such purchase and sale shall otherwise be on the other terms and conditions set forth in this Article VIII. If the selling Member delivers a Purchase Notice pursuant to this Section 8.10, then the selling Member shall not be entitled to retain the Deposit under Section 8.04. 8.11 Application of Provisions The Members acknowledge and agree that if either Member has timely and validly delivered an Election Notice to the other Member and initiated the buy/sell procedures set forth in this Article VIII, then such other Member shall be precluded from delivering an Election Notice unless such buy/sell procedure has been terminated.

Each Member hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the other Member wholly harmless from and against all Losses arising out of any claim for brokerage or other commissions relative to this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated herein insofar as any such claim arises by reason of services alleged to have been rendered to or at the insistence of such indemnifying Member or any Affiliate thereof. No Member shall receive any credit to its Capital Account or Unreturned Contribution Account or otherwise be reimbursed by the Company for any amounts paid by such Member pursuant to this Section 9.03. 9.04 Investment Representations Each Member agrees as follows with respect to investment representations:
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -49- (a) Member Understandings. Each Member understands the following: (i) No Registration. That the Interests in the Company evidenced by this Agreement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. § 15b et seq., the Delaware Securities Act, the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968 or any other state securities laws (the "Securities Acts") because the Company is issuing Interests in the Company in reliance upon the exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Acts providing for issuance of securities not involving a public offering; (ii) Reliance by the Company. That the Company has relied upon the representation made by each Member that the Interest issued to such Member is to be held by such Member for investment; and (iii) No Distribution. That exemption from registration under the Securities Acts would not be available if any Interest in the Company was acquired by a Member with a view to distribution. Each Member agrees that the Company is under no obligation to register the Interests or to assist the Members in complying with any exemption from registration under the Securities Acts if the Member should at a later date wish to dispose of such its Interest in the Company. (b) Acquisition for Own Account. Each Member hereby represents to the Company that such Member is acquiring its Interest in the Company for such Member's own account, for investment and not with a view to resale or distribution. (c) No Public Market. Each Member recognizes that no public market exists with respect to the Interests and no representation has been made that such a public market will exist at a future date. (d) No Advertisement. Each Member hereby represents that such Member has not received any advertisement or general solicitation with respect to the sale of the Interests. (e) Pre-Existing Business Relationship. Each Member acknowledges that such Member has a preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company or its officers, directors, or principal interest holders, or, by reason of such Member's business or financial experience or the business or financial experience of such Member's financial advisors (who are not affiliated with the Company), could be reasonably assumed to have the capacity to protect such Member's own interest in connection with the acquisition of its Interest. Each Member further acknowledges that such Member is familiar with the financial condition and prospects of the Company's business, and has discussed with the other Member the current activities of the Company. Each Member believes that the Interest is a security of the kind such Member wishes to purchase and hold for investment, and that the nature and amount of the Interest is consistent with such Member's investment program. (f) Due Investigation. Before acquiring any Interest in the Company, each Member has investigated the Company and its business and the Company has made
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -50- available to each Member all information necessary for the Member to make an informed decision to acquire an Interest in the Company. Each Member considers itself to be a Person possessing experience and sophistication as an investor adequate for the evaluation of the merits and risks of the Member's investment in the Company. 9.05 Indemnification Obligations In addition to the indemnity described in Section 9.03 above, each Member hereby unconditionally and irrevocably covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, the other Member and such other Member's partners, members, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents and other representatives (collectively, the "Affiliated Parties") from and against any and all Losses incurred by the other Member and/or such Affiliated Parties to the extent such Losses arise out of any material inaccuracy or material breach of any representations or warranties made by such Member under this Agreement. No Member shall receive any credit to its Capital Account or Unreturned Contribution Account or otherwise be reimbursed by the Company for any amounts paid by such Member pursuant to this Section 9.05. 9.06 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants Each Member understands the meaning and consequences of the representations, warranties and covenants made by such Member set forth in this Article IX and that the Company and the other Member have relied upon such representations, warranties and covenants. All representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Article IX shall survive the execution of this Agreement, the formation of the Company, the withdrawal of any Member as a member of the Company and the Liquidation of the Company. ARTICLE X LIABILITY, EXCULPATION, RESTRICTIONS ON COMPETITION, FIDUCIARY DUTIES AND INDEMNIFICATION 10.01 Liability for Company Claims Except as otherwise provided by this Agreement, the Delaware Act and/or any other applicable law, 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 Member shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company solely by reason of being a member of the Company. 10.02 Exculpation, Indemnity and Reliance on Information The Members hereby agree to the exculpation, indemnity and other provisions set forth below as follows: (a) Limitation on Covered Person Liability. No authorized person, Member or Officer of the Company, or, if designated by the Executive Committee, any Affiliate or any direct or indirect members, partners, shareholders, directors, officers, managers, trustees or employees of any Member (collectively, the "Covered Persons") shall be liable or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Company or to any Member for any error of
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -51- judgment or any mistake of fact or law or for anything that such Covered Person may do or refrain from doing hereafter, except to the extent caused by any Bad Acts or Prohibited Transfer of such Covered Person or any Affiliate thereof. As used herein, the term "Bad Acts" means (i) gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, (ii) any act or omission outside the scope of authority granted under this Agreement resulting in damages or liability to a Covered Person, (iii) any breach of this Agreement, and (iv) any action willingly taken by any Guarantor under any Recourse Document for the Project or Non- Recourse Document for the Project without the prior written consent of both Members, which creates liability under any such Recourse Document or Non-Recourse Document. The term "Prohibited Transfer" means any transfer of a direct or indirect ownership in the Company (including, without limitation, any transfer of a direct or indirect ownership interest in any Member) that results in a Lender declaring a default or breach of or under any of the loan documents evidencing any Loan obtained by the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, the Bad Act or Prohibited Transfer of any Affiliate or employee of any Person will also be deemed to be the Bad Act or Prohibited Transfer of such Person. The foregoing is subject to any applicable cure period provided under this Agreement. (b) Indemnity. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify, defend (with counsel selected by the Executive Committee), protect and hold harmless, each Covered Person, from and against any and all Losses incurred by such Covered Person by reason of anything which such Covered Person may do or refrain from doing that arises out of or relates to the Company to the extent such Losses are not covered by insurance maintained by or for the benefit of such Covered Person. The foregoing obligation of the Company to indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless each Covered Person shall extend to any Losses incurred by any Guarantor under any Recourse Document or Nonrecourse Document (or as a result of the rights of contribution described in Section 3.05). Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this Section 10.02(b), no Covered Person (including any Guarantor) shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Company to the extent any such Losses are incurred by such Covered Person by reason of, or in connection with, any Bad Acts or Prohibited Transfer of such Covered Person. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the indemnity obligation of the Company extend to any Losses that may be incurred or that may arise under an Affiliate Agreement. The Administrative Member may cause the Company to pay any costs and/or expenses incurred by any Covered Person in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding prior to the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of any undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person (or, in the Executive Committee's reasonable discretion, a creditworthy Affiliate thereof) to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized in this Section 10.02(b). The obligation of the Company to indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless each Covered Person under any provision of this Agreement shall survive the withdrawal of any Member from the Company and/or the Liquidation of the Company, in each case solely to the extent such obligation of the Company arose prior to such withdrawal or Liquidation.
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -52- If a claim for indemnification or payment of expenses under this Section 10.02(b) is not paid in full within thirty (30) calendar days after a written claim therefor by the Covered Person has been received by the Company, then the Covered Person may initiate an action to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim. In any such action, the Covered Person shall have the burden of proving that the Covered Person was entitled to the requested indemnification or payment of expenses under applicable law. (c) Reliance upon Information, Opinions, Reports, etc. A Covered Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company, any information received by any Member or the Company with respect to the Project (financial or otherwise), and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by any Person as to matters the Covered Person reasonably believes are within such other Person's professional or expert competence including, without limitation, information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits, losses or cash flow or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which distributions to Members might properly be paid. 10.03 Limitation on Liability Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (and without limiting any liability a party may have under the Delaware Act or other applicable law to return any distribution received by such party), no direct or indirect member, manager, partner, shareholder, officer, director, trustee or employee in or of any Member (collectively, the "Nonrecourse Parties") shall be personally liable in any manner or to any extent under or in connection with this Agreement, and neither any Member nor the Company shall have any recourse to any assets of any of the Nonrecourse Parties. Neither any Member nor any Nonrecourse Party shall have any liability for any punitive damages, lost profits, special damages or consequential damages based on any claim that arises out of or relates to this Agreement and/or the Company. The limitations on liability provided in this Section 10.03 is in addition to, and not in limitation of, any limitation on liability applicable to any Member or Nonrecourse Party provided by law or by this Agreement or any other contract, agreement or instrument. 10.04 Activities of the Members and Their Affiliates Subject to the terms hereof, each Member and their respective direct and indirect Affiliates, members, partners, shareholders, directors, managers, officers, employees, agents and trustees shall only be required to devote so much of their time to the business and affairs of the Company as is determined in the reasonable discretion of each such party. Neither Member nor any of its direct and indirect Affiliates, members, partners, shareholders, directors, officers, managers, employees, agents or trustees shall be prohibited from engaging in other businesses whether or not similar to the business of the Company.
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -53- 10.05 Intentionally Omitted 10.06 Fiduciary Duties The fiduciary duties otherwise owed by the Members to each other under the Delaware Act or otherwise are limited as follows: (a) Other Activities. Except as otherwise provided by this Agreement, to the maximum extent allowed by law, neither Member shall have any obligations (fiduciary or otherwise) with respect to the Company or to the other Member insofar as making other investment opportunities available to the Company or to the other Member. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Member may engage in whatever activities such Member may choose, whether the same are competitive with the Company or otherwise, without having or incurring any obligation to offer any interest in such activities to the Company or to the other Member. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any activities undertaken pursuant hereto shall prevent either Member from engaging in such activities, and to the maximum extent allowed by law, the fiduciary duties of the Members to each other and to the Company shall be limited solely to those arising from the business of the Company. EACH MEMBER AGREES THAT THE MODIFICATION AND WAIVER OF THE FIDUCIARY DUTIES OF EACH MEMBER PURSUANT TO THIS ARTICLE X ARE FAIR AND REASONABLE AND HAVE BEEN UNDERTAKEN WITH THE INFORMED CONSENT OF EACH MEMBER. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, EACH MEMBER AGREES AND COVENANTS NOT TO CONTEST THE VALIDITY OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION IN ANY COURT OF LAW (AND/OR IN ANY OTHER PROCEEDING). (b) Good Faith and Fair Dealing. Except as otherwise provided by this Agreement, each Member intends to limit the standard of care, degree of loyalty and fiduciary duties to the maximum extent allowed by law; provided, however, the foregoing shall not eliminate the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Member may exercise any of its rights and remedies under this Agreement without regard to any fiduciary duties that are owed to the Company or the other Member including, without limitation, the remedies set forth in Section 3.03 and Articles VII and VIII. 10.07 Non-Exclusivity of Rights Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the rights conferred on any Person by this Article X shall not be exclusive of any other rights which such Person may have or hereafter acquire under any applicable law. 10.08 Amendment or Repeal Any repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Article X shall not adversely affect any right or protection hereunder of any Person in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification.
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -54- 10.09 Insurance The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, to the extent and in such amounts as are determined by the Executive Committee on behalf of the Covered Persons and such other Persons as the Executive Committee shall determine in its reasonable discretion, against any liability or claim that may be asserted against or expenses that may be incurred by any such Person in connection with the activities of the Company or such indemnities, regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement. The Company may enter into indemnity contracts with Covered Persons and such other Persons as the Executive Committee shall determine and adopt written procedures pursuant to which arrangements are made for the advancement of expenses and the funding of obligations under Section 10.02(b) hereof and containing such other procedures regarding indemnifications as are appropriate. ARTICLE XI BOOKS AND RECORDS 11.01 Books of Account and Bank Accounts The taxable year of the Company shall be the year ending December 31.

The annual financial reports shall be delivered together with a written statement by the Administrative Member that includes (1) a representation by the Administrative Member that such annual statements fairly represent the financial condition of the Company, and (2) a representation by the Administrative Member that such financial statements have been prepared in accordance Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, consistently applied. Upon not less than seventy-two (72) hours prior notice, the Administrative Member shall cooperate with the other Member, at the Company's sole cost and expense, to conduct an independent inspection and review of the books and records of the Company. The other Member shall have the authority to authorize the preparation of audited financial statements for the Company at the expense of the requesting party. The failure by the Administrative Member to
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -55- deliver or otherwise cooperate timely with any item to be delivered or request made in accordance with the requirements of this Section 11.01 shall be considered a material breach of the Administrative Member's obligations under this Agreement (provided the foregoing shall not limit any cure rights the Administrative Member may have with respect to such breach under Section 2.16(c)(i) or 7.01(a) above).

The failure by the Administrative Member to deliver timely any tax return in accordance with the requirements of this Section 11.02 shall be considered a material breach of the Administrative Member's obligations under this Agreement if (i) such failure is not caused by the other Member's delay in delivering any information reasonably and timely requested in writing by the Administrative Member, and (ii) such failure is not caused by the accounting firm's failure to prepare such tax returns within the estimated timeframe provided by the accounting firm or any failure by the Executive Committee to agree on any accounting treatment or election (provided the foregoing shall not limit any cure rights the Administrative Member may have with respect to such breach under Section 2.16(c)(i) or 7.01(a) above). The Administrative Member is hereby designated as the "partnership representative" of the Company within the meaning of Section 6223(a) of the Code, as amended by Title XI of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015.

The "partnership representative" of the Company shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Company for all reasonable third-party out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with any tax proceeding relating to the Company.

As the "partnership representative" of the Company, the Administrative Member will have the right to make an election to treat any "partnership adjustment" as an adjustment to be taken into account by each Member (and former member) in accordance with Section 6226 of the Code. ARTICLE XII DISSOLUTION AND WINDING UP OF THE COMPANY 12.01 Events Causing Dissolution of the Company Upon any Member's bankruptcy, resignation, withdrawal, expulsion or other cessation to serve or the admission of a new member into the Company, the Company shall not dissolve but the business of the Company shall continue without interruption or break in continuity. However, the Company shall be dissolved and its affairs wound up upon the first to occur of any of the following events: (a) Failure to Deliver Initial Annual Business Plan. The election of Tejon to dissolve the Company if Majestic does not deliver the annual business plan for the first Business Plan Period for any reason to the Executive Committee pursuant to Section 2.07 on or before May 10, 2021 (provided such election is made prior to the date (if any) that the Executive Committee approves the initial annual business plan for the Company); (b) Failure to Approve Initial Business Plan. The election of either Member to dissolve the Company if the Executive Committee for any reason does not approve the annual business plan for the first Business Plan Period in its sole and absolute discretion within five (5) days following the submission of such plan to the Executive Committee pursuant to Section 2.07 (provided such election is made prior to the date (if any) that the Executive Committee approves the initial annual business plan for the Company); (c) Failure to Timely Close Contruction Loan. The election of either Member to dissolve the Company if the Company does not close the Construction Loan within ten (10) days following the approval of the annual business plan for the first Business Plan Period by the Executive Committee pursuant to Section 2.07 (provided such election is made prior to the date (if any) that the Company closes the Construction Loan); (d) Sale of Assets. The sale, transfer or other disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets and the collection by the Company of all consideration received in such transaction (including, without limitation, the collection of any promissory note received by the Company); (e) Election of Members.

1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -57- (f) Decree of Dissolution. The entry of a decree of judicial dissolution pursuant to Section 18-802 of the Delaware Act. Except as provided above in this Section 12.01, neither Member shall have the right to, and each Member hereby waives to the maximum extent allowed by law the right to, unilaterally seek to dissolve or cause the dissolution of the Company or to unilaterally seek to cause a partial or whole distribution or sale of Company assets whether by court action or otherwise, it being agreed that any actual or attempted dissolution, distribution or sale would cause a substantial hardship to the Company and the other Member. 12.02 Winding Up of the Company Upon the Liquidation of the Company, the Administrative Member shall proceed to the winding up of the business and affairs of the Company. During such winding up process, the Net Profits, Net Losses and Cash Flow distributions shall continue to be shared by the Members in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to Section 12.03, the assets of the Company shall be liquidated as promptly as consistent with obtaining a fair value therefor, and the proceeds therefrom, to the extent available, shall be applied and distributed by the Company on or before the end of the taxable year of such Liquidation or, if later, within ninety (90) days after such Liquidation, in the following order: (a) Creditors. First, to creditors of the Company (including Members who are creditors) in the order of priority as provided by law; (b) Reserves. Second, to establishing any reserves which the Administrative Member reasonably determines are necessary for any contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations of the Company; and (c) Remaining Amounts. Thereafter, to the Members in the order of priority set forth in Section 5.01. Any reserves withheld pursuant to Section 12.02(b) shall be distributed as soon as practicable, as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Member, in the order of priority set forth in Section 12.02(c). The Members believe and intend that the effect of making any and all liquidating distributions in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.02(c) shall result in such liquidating distributions being made to the Members in proportion to the positive balances standing in their respective Capital Accounts. If this is not the result, then the Administrative Member, upon the advice of tax counsel to the Company, is hereby authorized to make such amendments to the provisions of Article IV that are reasonably approved by the Executive Committee as may be necessary to cause such allocations to be in compliance with Code Section 704(b) and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. 12.03 Distribution of Assets Upon Early Dissolution Event Following the effective date of any notice delivered to dissolve the Company pursuant to Section 12.01(a), Section 12.01(b) or Section 12.01(c), (i) Tejon shall not have any duty or
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -58- obligation to convey (or cause to be conveyed) the Property (or any portion thereof) or any rights related thereto to the Company, and (ii) neither the Company nor Majestic shall have any rights to participate in, or otherwise realize any economic benefit from, the Property (or any rights related thereto). Following any dissolution pursuant to Section 12.01(a), Section 12.01(b) or Section 12.01(c), the Company shall transfer, convey and assign (to the extent assignable) to Tejon at its written request all or any part of the Work Product owned by the Company that in any way relates to or benefits the Property. Tejon shall reimburse the Company for all costs and expenses reimbursed or paid for by the Company for any portion of the Work Product that is transferred, conveyed and assigned to Tejon at its request pursuant to this Section 12.03 (and the distribution of such Work Product to Tejon shall not reduce its Capital Account or Unreturned Contribution Account). Any such transfer, conveyance and assignment of any portion of the Work Product to Tejon shall be made by the Company on an "AS-IS" basis without any representation or warranty whatsoever from the Company, Majestic and/or any Affiliate thereof. Any amounts contributed by Tejon pursuant to this Section 12.03 shall be distributed to the Members in accordance with the terms of Section 5.01. 12.04 Negative Capital Account Restoration No Member shall have any obligation whatsoever upon the Liquidation of such Member's Interest, the Liquidation of the Company or in any other event, to contribute all or any portion of any negative balance standing in such Member's Capital Account to the Company, to the other Member or to any other Person.

The address for either Member may be changed by giving written notice to the other Member in the manner set forth in this Section 13.04.

1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -61- reason, then the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be in any way impaired or affected, it being intended that the Members' rights and privileges described in this Agreement shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. 13.11 Waiver No consent or waiver, express or implied, by a party to or of any breach or default by any other party in the performance by such other party of such other party's obligations under this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by such other party hereunder. Failure on the part of a party to complain of any act or failure to act of any other party or to declare any other party in default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by such non- complaining or non-declaring party of the latter's rights hereunder. 13.12 Entire Agreement This Agreement, together with the Contribution Agreement, contains the entire understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior or other contemporaneous understanding, correspondence, negotiations or agreements between them respecting the subject matter hereof. 13.13 Choice of Law Notwithstanding the place where this Agreement may be executed by any of the parties hereto, the parties expressly acknowledge and agree that all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be construed under the laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to the conflicts of laws and principles thereof).

To the extent that any interest charged by the Company or by any Member (and/or Affiliate thereof) shall have been finally adjudicated to exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law, such interest shall be retroactively deemed to have been a required repayment of principal (and any such amount paid in excess of the outstanding principal amount shall be promptly returned to the payor). In furtherance of the foregoing, the Members acknowledge and agree that pursuant to the Delaware Act, no obligation of a Member to the Company shall be subject to the defense of usury, and no Member shall impose the defense of usury with respect to any such obligation in any action. 13.17 Venue If any litigation, claim or lawsuit directly or indirectly arising out of this Agreement is not required to be resolved in accordance with the JAMS procedures provided for under Section 13.18, then each Member hereby irrevocably consents to the maximum extent allowed by law to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in California and to the exclusive venue of (i) the Eastern District of California for any federal action or proceeding arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement, and (ii) the Superior Court of California located in Kern County, California for any state action or proceeding arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement. 13.18 Dispute Resolution Any action to resolve any controversy or claim arising out of, or related to in any way to, this Agreement (exclusive of any impasse on any Major Decision) or the Contribution Agreement, including, without limitation, any alleged breach of this Agreement or the Contribution Agreement and any claim based upon any tort theory, however characterized shall be resolved through a binding arbitration before an arbitrator in accordance with the terms of this Section 13.18. (a) Binding Arbitration. Any Member desiring to bring any action under this Agreement or the Contribution Agreement shall give written notice to the other Member (the "Arbitration Notice"), which notice shall state with particularity the nature of the dispute and the demand for relief, making specific reference by Section and title, if applicable, of the provisions of this Agreement or the Contribution Agreement pertaining to the dispute. This arbitration provision and its validity, construction, and performance shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (the "FAA") and cases decided thereunder and, to the extent relevant, the laws of the State of California. Further, the terms and procedures governing the enforcement of this Section 13.18 shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the FAA, and not individual state laws regarding enforcement of arbitration agreements. (b) Selection of Arbitrator. The Members shall endeavor to agree, within thirty (30) days of the Arbitration Notice, upon a mutually acceptable arbitrator to resolve the dispute. The arbitrator shall be a single former judge of the Superior Court or the Court of Appeal of the State of California or a member in good standing with the California
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -63- State Bar currently employed by or associated with the office of JAMS/ENDISPUTE ("JAMS") located in Los Angeles, California. The arbitrator shall have no direct or indirect social, political or business relationship of any sort with either of the Members, their respective legal counsel or any other Person materially involved with the Project. If the Members cannot agree upon the arbitrator within such thirty (30)-day period, then JAMS, in its sole discretion, shall provide a list of three (3) arbitrators with the qualifications set forth above. Within ten (10) days of JAMS providing the above- described list, each Member shall be entitled to strike one (1) name from the list and so notify JAMS. JAMS, in its sole discretion, thereafter shall select as arbitrator any one (1) of the persons remaining on the list, and the person so selected shall thereafter serve as arbitrator. If for any reason JAMS is unable or unwilling to make such an appointment, then any Member may apply to the Superior Court of the State of California in and for the County of Los Angeles for appointment of any former judge of the Superior Court or the Court of Appeal of the State of California to serve as arbitrator. The appointment of an arbitrator, whether by JAMS or by the Superior Court pursuant to the foregoing, shall be made, and the arbitrator shall serve, without further objection from any Member, except on the ground of conflict of interest, if any, pursuant to the same rules that would apply if the arbitrator was serving as an active member of the Superior Court or Court of Appeal. (c) Location of Proceeding. The proceeding shall take place at a City of Los Angeles office of JAMS and shall be conducted pursuant to the provisions of JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures in effect on the date of the Arbitration Notice (the "Rules"); provided that in all events the rules of evidence in such proceeding shall be governed by the California Evidence Code. Discovery between the parties prior to the arbitration hearing shall be limited to the mutual exchange of relevant documents. Interrogatories and request for admissions shall not be allowed under any circumstance. Depositions of witnesses shall not be permitted, unless it is shown that the witness will be otherwise unavailable and it is necessary to preserve his or her testimony for the hearing. The arbitrator shall have the authority set forth in Section 1282.6 of the California Code of Civil Procedure to issue subpoenas requiring the attendance at the hearing of witnesses, and to issue subpoenas duces tecum for the production at the hearing of books, records, documents and other evidence. (d) Resolution Dispute. Except as otherwise provided in Section 13.18(c), the arbitrator shall apply Delaware law in resolving the dispute. In resolving the dispute, the arbitrator shall apply the pertinent provisions of this Agreement without departure therefrom in any respect, and the arbitrator shall not have the power to change any of the provisions of the Agreement. The arbitrator shall try all of the issues including, without limitation, any issues that may be raised concerning whether the dispute is subject to the provisions of this Section 13.18 and any and all other issues, whether of fact or of law, and shall hear and decide all motions and matters of any kind. The arbitrator shall not be required to prepare a written statement of decision as to any interlocutory decision, but at the conclusion of the arbitration shall prepare a written statement of decision thereon which shall be final and binding upon the parties, and upon which judgment may be entered in accordance with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any interlocutory decisions by the arbitrator likewise shall be final and binding, except that the arbitrator shall have the power to reconsider such decisions for good cause shown. The
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -64- Members shall not have the right to appeal the arbitration award consistent with the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedure in effect at the time or any similar successor rules. Subject to the limitations in this Section 13.18, the arbitrator shall have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in a judicial proceeding. The arbitrator may award interim and final injunctive relief and other remedies, but may not award punitive, exemplary, treble or other enhanced damages. The arbitrator shall have no power or authority to issue any award or determination that would amend or modify this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a party shall be permitted to seek a temporary restraining order or injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction with regard to any controversy, dispute or claim between them relating to or arising out of this Agreement, a breach of this Agreement or the termination of the Administrative Member, where such relief is appropriate; provided that other relief shall be pursued through an arbitration proceeding pursuant to this Section 13.18. Each Member shall use reasonable efforts to expedite the arbitration process, and each Member shall have the right to be represented by counsel. (e) Award of Fees. Subject to the obligation of the arbitrator to award such fees and expenses to the prevailing party as provided in Section 13.07, until the arbitrator issues his or her final statement of decision, each Member shall pay the fees and expenses of its attorneys and experts in connection with the adjudication and one-half of the fees and expenses of the arbitrator; provided, however, that the arbitrator shall have the same power as a judge pursuant to the California Code of Civil Procedure to award sanctions with reference to interlocutory matters. Subject to Section 13.07, the Member shall bear an equal (pro rata) share of any arbitration costs, including any administrative or hearing fees charged by the arbitrator or JAMS. (f) Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH MEMBER HEREBY WAIVES EACH SUCH MEMBER'S RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE COMPANY, THIS AGREEMENT, THE CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY MEMBER AGAINST THE OTHER MEMBER, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. EACH MEMBER AGREES THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY AN ARBITRATOR AS PROVIDED ABOVE BUT THIS WAIVER SHALL BE EFFECTIVE EVEN IF, FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER, SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION CANNOT BE TRIED BY SUCH ARBITRATOR. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, EACH MEMBER FURTHER AGREES THAT EACH SUCH MEMBER'S RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW BY OPERATION OF THE FOREGOING AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT OR ANY PROVISION OF EITHER SUCH AGREEMENT. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -65- AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS, OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT AND/OR THE CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT. AL JR INITIALS OF TEJON ER BT TS INITIALS OF MAJESTIC (g) Survivability. The provisions of this Section 13.18 shall survive the withdrawal of any Member from the Company and the dissolution and liquidation of the Company. 13.19 Timing All dates and times specified in this Agreement are of the essence and shall be strictly enforced. 13.20 Remedies for Breach of this Agreement Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the remedies set forth in this Agreement are cumulative and shall not exclude any other remedies to which a Person may be lawfully entitled. 13.21 Survivability of Representations and Warranties All representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement including, without limitation, the indemnities contained in Sections 7.10, 8.09, 9.03, 9.05 and 10.02(b) shall survive the execution of this Agreement, the formation of the Company, the withdrawal of any Member and the Liquidation of the Company. 13.22 Reasonableness of Rights and Remedies THE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SECTION 3.03 AND ARTICLES VI AND VII) ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH MEMBER TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THE MEMBERS WOULD NOT HAVE AGREED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BUT FOR THE AGREEMENT OF EACH MEMBER TO BE BOUND BY SUCH REMEDIES. EACH MEMBER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE FOREGOING REMEDIES ARE FAIR AND REASONABLE AND HAVE BEEN ENTERED INTO WITH THE INFORMED CONSENT OF EACH MEMBER. EACH MEMBER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICABLE AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ESTIMATE THE DAMAGES WHICH THE COMPANY AND THE NON-DEFAULTING MEMBER MAY SUFFER IN CONNECTION WITH THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY OF THE DEFAULTS DESCRIBED ABOVE. THEREFORE, EACH MEMBER AGREES THAT THE REMEDIES SET FORTH ABOVE REASONABLY AND FAIRLY REFLECT THE DETRIMENT THAT THE COMPANY AND THE NON-DEFAULTING MEMBER WOULD SUFFER IN SUCH EVENT AND, IN LIGHT OF THE DIFFICULTY IN DETERMINING ACTUAL DAMAGES, REPRESENT A PRIOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE MEMBERS AS TO APPROPRIATE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. EACH MEMBER ALSO AGREES THAT THE REMEDIES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR
1282772.07/OC 373745.00003 -66- PENALTY UNDER DELAWARE OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE STATE LAW. EACH MEMBER FURTHER COVENANTS NOT TO CONTEST THE VALIDITY OF THE REMEDIES SET FORTH ABOVE AS A PENALTY, FORFEITURE OR OTHERWISE IN ANY COURT OF LAW (AND/OR IN ANY ARBITRATION OR MEDIATION). 13.23 Force Majeure The time period for each Member to perform any obligation under this Agreement shall be extended for the time period such Member (the "Obligated Member") is unable to perform such obligation as a result of any Force Majeure Delay. The term "Force Majeure Delay" means any delay as a result of war, national emergency, strikes (other than strikes or labor disturbances limited in scope to primarily the employees of the Obligated Member or any Affiliate thereof), riot or civil unrest, utility failure, acts of God (excluding inclement weather) or other events totally outside the control of the Obligated Member or any Affiliate thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Force Majeure Delay shall be deemed to exist as a result of (i) the Obligated Member's lack of funds (other than a temporary lack of funds resulting from any event totally outside the control of the Obligated Member described in the preceding sentence), or (ii) any delay solely caused by any act or omission of the Obligated Member or any Affiliate thereof, and in any event, the length of any Force Majeure Delay shall be reduced by (A) the time period that elapses after the tenth Business Day following the initial cause of the delay through the date the Obligated Member notifies the other Member in writing of the delay and the reason for the delay (if the Obligated Member has previously failed to provide such notice to the other Member on or before the tenth Business Day following the initial cause of the delay), or (B) the length of any delay caused by the Obligated Member's failure to promptly exercise and continue to exercise reasonable commercial efforts to remove or overcome such delay. All other delays from acts or events are explicitly excluded from Force Majeure Delays and shall not extend the time period for any Member to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement.

The Offer Notice shall constitute a revocable offer by the Offeror to sell the Offered Interest to the other Member on the terms and conditions set forth in this Exhibit "H." (b) Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Offer Notice, the non-transferring Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to purchase the entire Offered Interest for the price and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice by delivering written notice of such election (the "Purchase Election") to the Offeror. The failure of non-transferring Member to submit a written notice within such thirty (30) day period shall constitute an irrevocable rejection of the offer made by the Offeror to sell the Offered Interest to the non-transferring Member. (c) If the non-transferring Member timely elects to purchase the entire Offered Interest prior to the Offeror's written revocation of the offer, then the Offered Interest shall be sold to the non-transferring Member upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice including, without limitation, price, terms of payment and closing date; provided, however, if the terms of the proposed transfer include the payment by the Offeror of a commission, then the purchase price shall be reduced by the amount of such commission. The Offeror and the non-transferring Member shall execute such documents and instruments and make such deliveries as may be reasonably required to consummate the transfer. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Exhibit "H," the Offeror shall make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 8.07 of the Agreement at the closing for the purchase and sale of the Offered Interest. (d) If the non-transferring Member does not timely elect to purchase the entire Offered Interest (or if the non-transferring Member breaches its obligation to purchase the entire Offered Interest), then the Offeror may transfer the entire Offered Interest to the proposed transferee described in the Offer Notice, provided such transfer (i) is completed within ninety (90) days after the expiration of the non-transferring Member's right to purchase the Offered Interest (or within 90 days following the breach by the non-transferring Member of its obligation to purchase the entire Offered Interest, if applicable), (ii) is made at the price and on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Offeror than as described in the Offer Notice, (iii) would not constitute a default or breach by the Company under any loan agreement or document to which the Company is a party (unless the lender consents to such transfer), and (iv) the requirements of Section 6.03 are met. If the Offered Interest is not so transferred within such ninety (90)-day period, then the Offeror shall
