(ii) it is not reasonably practicable to carry on the company's activities in conformity with the articles of organization and the operating agreement;

(5) on application by a member, the entry by appropriate court of an order dissolving the company on the grounds that the managers, governors, or those members in control of the company:

In a proceeding brought under subdivision 1, clause (5), the court may order a remedy other than dissolution, which may include the sale for fair value of all membership interests a member owns in a limited liability company to the limited liability company or one or more of the other members. A remedy other than dissolution may be ordered in any case where that remedy would be appropriate under all the facts and circumstances of the case.

Subd. 3.Venue.

A proceeding brought under subdivision 1, clause (5), must be brought in a court within the county in which the registered office of the limited liability company is located. It is not necessary to make members parties to the action or proceeding unless relief is sought against them personally.
