2
powers are necessary or convenient to the conduct, promotion or attainment of the purposes of the Company set forth in Section 3 above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company shall not assume, guaranty or become obligated for, the liability of any Person other than the borrower of any indebtedness the repayment of which is secured by the lien of a deed of trust or mortgage encumbering any real property owned by Company (“Company Property”) nor hold out its credit as being available to satisfy the obligations of any such other Person other than unsecured obligations, if any, incurred in the ordinary course of the operation of the Company Property.

7. Limited Liability. Except as otherwise provided by the Act, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, and the Sole Member shall not be obligated for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company by reason of being a member of the Company.
8. Admission of Sole Member. The Sole Member has contributed to the capital of the Company such cash or other property as it determined in its sole discretion. The Sole Member is the sole member of the Company and the Company has issued one (1) membership interest to the Sole Member (the “Sole Membership Interest”), representing a one hundred percent (100%) percentage interest in the Company.

Unless the Manager decides otherwise, if the title is one commonly used for officers of a business corporation formed under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the assignment of that title shall constitute the delegation to that Person of the authority and duties that are normally associated with that office. Any delegation pursuant to this Section 11 may be revoked or modified at any time by the Manager. Any individual may hold any number of offices. The agents with power of attorney and/or officers, if any, shall have such authority to sign checks, instruments and other documents on behalf of the Company as may be delegated to them by the Manager.

(c) Judicial Dissolution. The entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 18-802 of the Act.
14. Exculpation; Indemnification by the Company. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Sole Member shall not be liable to the Company or any other Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by the Sole Member in good faith on behalf of the Company in the conduct of the business or affairs of the Company. Further, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Sole Member and, if the Sole Member so elects by notice to any such other Person, any of the Sole Member’s Affiliates and members, and any of its or their respective shareholders, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates, from and against any and all liabilities, losses, claims, judgments, fines, settlements and damages incurred by the Sole Member, or by any such other Person, arising out of any claim based upon any acts performed or omitted to be performed by the Sole Member, or by any such other Person on behalf of the Sole Member, in connection with the organization, management, business or property of the Company, including costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees (which may be paid as incurred) expended in the settlement or defense of any such claims.
