ARTICLE III
Officers

3.1 Designation of Officers. The Member may, from time to time, designate one or more individuals to be officers of and to act for the Company. No officer need be a resident of the State of Virginia. Any officers so designated shall have such authority and perform such duties as the Member may, from time to time, prescribe or as may be provided in this Agreement, including the power to execute documents on behalf of the Company subject to the limits set forth herein. The Member may assign titles to particular officers. Unless the Member otherwise specifies, if the title is one commonly used for officers of a business corporation, the assignment of such title shall constitute the delegation to such officer of the authority, duties and ability to bind the Company that are normally associated with that office under the laws of the State of Virginia, subject to any specific limitations on authority and duties made to such officer by the Member pursuant to this Section 3.1. Each officer shall hold office until his or her successor shall be duly designated and shall qualify or until his or her death or until he or she shall resign or shall have been removed. Any number of offices may be held by the same individual.

3.2 Resignation., Removal. Any officer may resign as such at any time.

Any officer may be removed as such, either with or without cause, by the Member; provided that such removal shall be without

prejudice to the contract rights, if any, of the individual so removed. Designation of an officer shall not of itself create any contract rights, except as otherwise set forth herein. Any vacancy occurring in any office of the Company may be filled by the Member.

3.3 Duties of Officers Generally. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, each officer shall owe to the Company and its Member the same fiduciary duties (including the duties of care and loyalty) that such individuals would owe to a Virginia corporation and its shareholders as an officer thereof.

3.4 Appointed Officers. In addition to officers designated by the Member in accordance with this Article III, the Chief Executive Officer may appoint other officers below the level of Member-appointed Vice President as the Chief Executive Officer may from time to time deem expedient and may designate for such officers titles that appropriately reflect their positions and responsibilities. Such appointed officers shall have such powers and shall perform such duties as may be assigned to them by the Chief Executive Officer or the senior officer to whom they report, consistent with corporate policies. An appointed officer shall serve until the earlier of such officer's resignation or such officer's removal by the Chief Executive Officer at any time, either with or without cause.

ARTICLE IV

(a) The capital structure of the Company shall consist of one class of common units (the “Common Units”). All Common Units shall be identical with each other in every respect. The Member shall own all of the Common Units issued and outstanding, as set forth on Schedule A attached hereto. The Board may in its discretion issue certificates to the Member representing the Common Units held by such Member. The Member hereby agrees that the Common Units shall be securities governed by the Uniform Commercial Code of the applicable jurisdiction.

ARTICLE VI
Events of Dissolution

The Company shall be dissolved upon the first of the following events to occur:

(a) The consent of the Member at any time to dissolve and wind up the affairs of the Company; or

(b) The occurrence of any other event that causes the dissolution of a limited liability company under the Act.

In the event of any dissolution of the Company, the Member shall be in charge of such dissolution, and the Member shall immediately proceed with an orderly winding up of the Company's business and affairs and the orderly liquidation of the Company and its assets and make final distributions as provided in the Act; provided, that until all final distributions are made, the Member shall continue to operate the Company. The duties of care and loyalty described in the Act still apply to the Member during the winding up and liquidation period. The costs of liquidation shall be borne as a Company expense. The Member shall not receive any additional compensation for services rendered during the winding up and liquidation of the Company.

Notwithstanding any provisions of the Act or other applicable law, an insolvency event, including a bankruptcy filing, by or against the Company or a Member shall not cause a dissolution of the Company nor shall such an insolvency event, including a bankruptcy filing, by or against a Member effect a deemed assignment, transfer, withdrawal or dissociation of such Member's interest in the Company or otherwise have any effect whatsoever on such Member's interest.

ARTICLE VII
Transfer of the Member's Common Units

The Member may sell, assign, transfer, convey, gift, exchange, pledge or otherwise dispose of any or all of its Common Units and, upon receipt by the Company of a written agreement executed by the person or entity to whom such Common Units are to be transferred agreeing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as amended from time to time, such person shall be admitted as a member.

ARTICLE VIII
Exculpation and Indemnification

8.1 Exculpation. No officer of the Company or member of the Board of Directors or Managers (each a “Manager”) or officer of any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries (each a “Subsidiary,” and collectively, “Subsidiaries”) shall be liable to the Company or such Subsidiary, any other officer of the Company or any other officer or Manager of any Subsidiary or to any Member for any loss suffered by the Company or any Subsidiary unless such loss is caused by such officer of the Company's or such Manager or officer of such Subsidiary's gross negligence, willful misconduct, knowing violation of law or material breach of this Agreement or any other agreement between the Company or any Subsidiary and such officer of the Company or such Manager or officer of such Subsidiary. No officer of the Company and no Manager or officer of any direct or indirect Subsidiary shall be liable to the Company or such Subsidiary, any other Manager or officer or any Member for errors in judgment or for any acts or omissions that do not constitute gross negligence, intentional misconduct, knowing violation of law or material breach of this Agreement or other agreement with the Company or its Subsidiaries. Any officer of the Company and any Manager or officer of any of its Subsidiaries may consult with the Company's and such Subsidiary's counsel and accountants in respect of the Company's and such Subsidiary's affairs, and provided such officer of the Company or Manager or officer of such Subsidiary, as the case may be, acts in good faith reliance upon the advice or opinion of such counsel or accountants, such officer of the Company or such Manager or officer of such Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall not be liable for any loss suffered by the Company or such Subsidiary in reliance thereon.

8.2 Right to Indemnification. Subject to the limitations and conditions as provided in this Article VIII, each person or entity (“Person”) who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative (hereinafter a “Proceeding”), or any appeal in such a Proceeding or any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such a Proceeding, by reason of the fact that he or she, or a Person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was an officer of the Company or, while an officer of the Company, is or was serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust or other enterprise, shall be indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment) against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) actually incurred by such Person in connection with such Proceeding; provided that (a) such Person's course of conduct was pursued in good faith and believed by him to be in the best interests of the Company and (b) such course of conduct did not constitute gross negligence, intentional misconduct, or knowing violation of law on the part of such Person and otherwise was materially in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Indemnification under this Article VIII shall continue with respect to a Person who has ceased to serve in the capacity which initially entitled such Person to indemnity hereunder. The rights granted pursuant to this Article VIII shall be deemed contractual rights, and no amendment, modification or repeal of this Article VIII shall have the effect of limiting or denying any such rights with respect to actions taken or Proceedings arising prior to any amendment, modification or repeal. It is expressly acknowledged that the indemnification provided in this Article VIII could involve indemnification for negligence other than gross negligence.

8.3 Advance Payment. The right to indemnification conferred in this Article VIII shall, upon approval by the Member in each instance, include the right to be paid or reimbursed by the Company the reasonable expenses incurred by a Person of the type entitled to be indemnified under Section 8.2 who was, is or is threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent in a Proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding and without any determination as to the Person's ultimate entitlement to indemnification; provided that the payment of such expenses incurred by any such Person in advance of the final disposition of a Proceeding shall be made only upon delivery to the Company of a written affirmation by such Person of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under Article VIII and a written undertaking, by or on behalf of such Person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VIII or otherwise.

8.4 Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Company may indemnify and advance expenses to any Person, as determined by the Member, by reason of the fact that such Person was an employee or agent of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in such a capacity or arising out of his or her status as such a Person to the same extent that it shall indemnify and advance expenses to Managers and officers under this Article VIII.

8.5 Appearance as a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VIII, the Company may pay or reimburse reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by a Manager, officer or employee in connection with his or her appearance as a witness or other

participation in a Proceeding related to or arising out of the business of the Company at a time when he or she is not a named defendant or respondent in the Proceeding.

8.6 Non-exclusivity of Rights. The right to indemnification and the advancement and payment of expenses conferred in this Article VIII shall not be exclusive of any other right which a Manager, officer or other Person indemnified pursuant to this Article VIII may have or hereafter acquire under any law (common or statutory), any provision of the Articles of Organization or this Agreement, any other separate contractual arrangement, any vote of the Member or disinterested Managers, or otherwise.

8.7 Insurance. The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any Person who is or was serving as an officer, employee or agent of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Company would have the obligation to indemnify such Person against such expense, liability or loss under this Article VIII.

8.8 Savings Clause. If this Article VIII or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each Manager, officer or any other Person indemnified pursuant to this Article VIII as to costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article VIII that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

8.9 Limitation. The exculpation provisions and indemnification obligations set forth in this Article VIII shall not apply to any acts or omissions that occur at or prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by that certain Equity Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 15, 2021, by and among CDW Technologies, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company, the Company, Chesapeake IT, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Timothy Lee, an individual resident of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
