2. Acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve

intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; or

3. Any transaction from which the manager derived an improper

personal benefit.

C. The articles of organization or operating agreement may

of good faith and fair dealing.

members or managers or both having such relative rights, powers and

duties as the operating agreement may provide, and may provide for

the creation in the manner provided in the operating agreement of

additional classes or groups of members or managers or both having

such relative rights, powers and duties as may from time to time be

established, including rights, powers and duties senior to existing

classes and groups of members or managers. An operating agreement

may provide for the taking of an action, including the amendment of

the operating agreement, without the vote or approval of any member

or manager or class or group of members or managers, including an

action to create under the operating agreement a class or group of

membership interests that was not previously outstanding. An

operating agreement may provide that any member or class or group of
