Except as provided in the articles or operating agreement, every member of a member-managed LLC must account to the LLC for any benefit, and hold as trustee for it any profits derived by the member without the consent of the other members from any transaction connected with the formation, conduct, or liquidation of the LLC or from any use by the member of its property including, but not limited to, confidential or proprietary information of the LLC or other matters entrusted to the member as a result of such person's status as a member.
(b) Standard of Conduct. A member of a member-managed LLC shall discharge such member's duties as a member, including all duties as a member of a committee:
(1) In good faith;
(2) With the care an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would exercise under similar circumstances; and
(3) In a manner the member reasonably believes to be in the best interest of the LLC.

(1) One (1) or more managers or employees of the LLC whom the member reasonably believes to be reliable and competent in the matters presented;
(2) Legal counsel, public accountants or other persons as to matters the member reasonably believes are within the person's professional or expert competence; or
(3) A committee of the members of which such member is not a member, if the member reasonably believes the committee merits confidence.
(d) Good Faith Requirement. The member is not acting in good faith if the member has knowledge concerning the matter in question that makes reliance otherwise committed by subsection (c) unwarranted.

(f) Burden of Proof. A person alleging a violation of this section has the burden of proving the violation.
