Each whole Share shall be entitled to one vote as to any matter on which it is entitled to vote and each fractional Share shall be entitled to a proportionate fractional vote. On any matter submitted to a vote of Shareholders, all Shares of the Trust then entitled to vote shall be voted by individual series, except (a) when required by the 1940 Act, Shares shall be voted in the aggregate and not by individual series, and (b) when the Trustees have determined that the matter affects only the interests of one or more series, then only Shareholders of such series shall be entitled to vote thereon. There shall be no cumulative voting in the election of Trustees. Shares may be voted in person or by proxy. A proxy with respect to Shares held in the name of two or more persons shall be valid if executed by any one of them unless at or prior to exercise of the proxy the Trust receives a specific written notice to the contrary from any one of them. A proxy purporting to be executed by or on behalf of a Shareholder shall be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior to its exercise, and the burden of proving invalidity shall rest on the challenger. Until Shares are issued, the Trustees may exercise all rights of Shareholders and may take any action required by law, this Declaration of Trust or the Bylaws, to be taken by Shareholders. Voting Power and Meetings ------------------------- Section 2. Meetings of Shareholders of the Trust or of any series may be called by the Trustees or such other person or persons as may be specified in the Bylaws, and held from time to time for the purpose of taking action upon any matter requiring the vote or the authority of the Shareholders of the Trust or of any series as herein provided or upon any other matter deemed by the Trustees to be necessary or desirable. Meetings of Shareholders of the Trust or of any series shall be called by the Trustees or such other person or persons as may be specified in the Bylaws upon written application by Shareholders holding at least 10% of the outstanding Shares of the Trust, if Shareholders of all series are required hereunder to vote in the aggregate and not by individual series at such meeting, or of any series, if Shareholders of such series are entitled hereunder to vote by individual series at such meeting, requesting that a meeting be called for a purpose requiring action by the Shareholders as provided herein or in the Bylaws. Written notice of any meeting of Shareholders shall be given or caused to be given by the Trustees by mailing such notice at least twenty days before such meeting, postage prepaid, stating the time, place and purpose of the meeting, to each Shareholder at the Shareholder's address as it appears on the records of the Trust. Quorum and Required Vote ------------------------ Section 3. Thirty percent (30%) of the Shares entitled to vote shall be a quorum for the transaction of business at a Shareholders' meeting, except that where any provision of law or of this Declaration of Trust permits or requires that holders of any series shall vote as a series, then 30% of the aggregate number of Shares of that series entitled to vote shall be necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business by that series. Any lesser number shall be sufficient for adjournments. Any adjourned session or sessions may be held, within a reasonable time after the date set for the original meeting, without the necessity of further notice. Except when a larger vote is required by any provision of this Declaration of Trust or the Bylaws, a majority of the Shares voted shall decide any questions, and a plurality shall elect a Trustee; provided that where any provision of law or of this Declaration of Trust permits or requires that the holders of any series shall vote as a series, then a majority of the Shares of that series voted on the matter shall decide that matter insofar as that series is concerned. Action by Written Consent ------------------------- Section 4. Any action taken by Shareholders may be taken without a meeting if a majority of Shareholders entitled to vote on the matter (or such larger proportion thereof as shall be required by any express provision of this Declaration of Trust or the Bylaws) consent to the action in writing and such written consents are filed with the records of the meetings of Shareholders. Such consent shall be treated for all purposes as a vote taken at a meeting of Shareholders.

At any meeting of the Limited Partners duly called and held in accordance with this Agreement at which a quorum is present, the act of Limited Partners holding Outstanding Units that in the aggregate represent a majority of the Outstanding Units entitled to vote and be present in person or by proxy at such meeting shall be deemed to constitute the act of all Limited Partners, unless a greater or different percentage is required with respect to such action under the provisions of this Agreement, in which case the act of the Limited Partners holding Outstanding Units that in the aggregate represent at least such greater or different percentage shall be required. The Limited Partners present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough Limited Partners to leave less than a quorum, if any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by the required percentage of Outstanding Units specified in this Agreement (including Outstanding Units deemed owned by the General Partner).
