Partnership shall be distributed by the Partnership to the Interest Holders in
proportion to their Percentages at such times and in such amounts as the General
Partner shall from time to time determine.
4.2. Regulatory Allocations.
4.2.1. Qualified Income Offset. No Interest Holder shall be
allocated Losses or deductions if the allocation causes an Interest Holder to
have a Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. If an Interest Holder receives (1) an
allocation of Loss or deduction (or item thereof) or (2) any distribution which
causes the Interest Holder to have a Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end
of any taxable year, then all items of income and gain of the Partnership
(consisting of a pro
-9-
rata portion of each item of Partnership income, including gross income and
gain) for that taxable year shall be allocated to that Interest Holder before
any other allocation is made of Partnership items for that taxable year, in the
amount and in proportions required to eliminate the Adjusted Capital Account
Deficit as quickly as possible. This Section 4.2.1. is intended to comply with,
and shall be interpreted consistently with, the "qualified income offset"
provisions of the Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704(b).
4.2.2. Partnership Minimum Gain. Except as set forth in Treas.
Reg. Section 1.704-2(f)(2), notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, if, during any taxable year, there is a net decrease in Partnership
Minimum Gain, each Interest Holder, prior to any other allocation pursuant to
this Section 4, shall be specially allocated items of gross income and gain for
such taxable year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in an amount
equal to that Interest Holder's share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum
Gain, computed in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-2(g). Allocations of
gross income and gain pursuant to this Section 4.2.2. shall be made first from
gain recognized from the disposition of Partnership assets subject to
nonrecourse liabilities (within the meaning of the Regulations promulgated under
Code Section 752), to the extent of the Partnership Minimum Gain attributable to
those assets, and thereafter, from a pro rata portion of the Partnership's other
items of income and gain for the taxable year. The items to be so allocated
shall be determined in accordance with Treas. Reg. Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and
1.704-2(j)(2). It is the intent of the parties hereto that any allocation
pursuant to this Section 4.2.2. shall constitute a "minimum gain chargeback"
under Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently
therewith.
4.2.3. Partner Minimum Gain. Except as otherwise provided in
Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-2(i)(4), notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, if there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain
attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any taxable year, each
Interest Holder who has a share of the Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain
attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with
Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of income
and gain for such taxable year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in
an amount equal to such Interest Holder's share of the net decrease in Partner
Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt,
determined in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations
pursuant to the previous sentence shall be determined in accordance with Treas.
Reg. Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 4.2.3. is
intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treas.
Reg. Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
4.2.4. Contributed Property and Book-ups. In accordance with
Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder, as well as Treas. Reg.
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(d)(3), income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect
to any property contributed (or deemed contributed) to the Partnership shall,
solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Interest Holders so as to take
account of any variation between the adjusted basis of the property to the
Partnership for federal income tax purposes and its fair market value at the
date of contribution (or deemed contribution). If the adjusted book value of any
Partnership asset is adjusted as provided herein, subsequent allocations of
income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to the
-10-
asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of the
asset for federal income tax purposes and its adjusted book value in the manner
required under Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder.
4.2.5. Code Section 754 Adjustment. To the extent an
adjustment to the tax basis of any Partnership asset pursuant to Code Section
734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treas. Reg. Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts,
the amount of the adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item
of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the
adjustment decreases basis) and the gain or loss shall be specially allocated to
the Interest Holders in a manner consistent with the manner in which their
Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to that Section of the
Regulations.
4.2.6. Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Partner Nonrecourse
Deductions for any taxable year shall be specially allocated to the Interest
Holder who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Partner
Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable
in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-2(i)(1).
4.2.7. Partner Loan Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Partner Loan
Nonrecourse Deduction for any taxable year or other period shall be specially
allocated to the Interest Holder who bears the risk of loss with respect to the
loan to which the Partner Loan Nonrecourse Deduction is attributable in
accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-2(b).
4.2.8. Unrealized Receivables. If an Interest Holder's
Interest is reduced (provided the reduction does not result in a complete
termination of the Interest Holder's Interest), the Interest Holder's share of
the Partnership's "unrealized receivables" and "substantially appreciated
inventory" (within the meaning of Code Section 751) shall not be reduced, so
that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
that portion of the Profit otherwise allocable upon a liquidation or dissolution
of the Partnership pursuant to Section 4.3. hereof which is taxable as ordinary
income (recaptured) for federal income tax purposes shall, to the extent
possible without increasing the total gain to the Partnership or to any Interest
Holder, be specially allocated among the Interest Holders in proportion to the
deductions (or basis reductions treated as deductions) giving rise to such
recapture. Any questions as to the aforesaid allocation of ordinary income
(recapture), to the extent such questions cannot be resolved in the manner
specified above, shall be resolved by the General Partner.
4.2.9. Withholding. All amounts required to be withheld
pursuant to Code Section 1446 or any other provision of federal, state or local
tax law shall be treated as amounts actually distributed to the affected
Interest Holders for all purposes under this Agreement.
4.3. Liquidation and Dissolution.
4.3.1. If the Partnership is dissolved, the assets of the
Partnership shall be distributed, subject to Section 17-804(a)(1) of the Act, to
the Interest Holders in accordance with
-11-
the balances in their respective Capital Accounts, after taking into account the
allocations of Profit or Loss pursuant to Sections 4.1. and 4.4.2., if any.
4.3.2. No Interest Holder shall be obligated to restore a
Negative Capital Account except as required by the Act.
4.3.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event
the Partnership is "liquidated" within the meaning of Treas.
Reg. Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), liquidating distributions shall be made
pursuant to this Section 4.3. by the end of the taxable year in which the
Partnership is liquidated, or, if later, within ninety (90) days after the date
of such liquidation. Distributions pursuant to the preceding sentence may be
made to a trust for the purpose of an orderly liquidation of the Partnership by
the trust in accordance with the Act.
4.4. General.
4.4.1. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the
timing and amount of all distributions shall be determined by the General
Partner.
4.4.2. If any assets of the Partnership are distributed in
kind to the Interest Holders, those assets shall be valued on the basis of their
fair market value, and any Interest Holder entitled to any interest in those
assets shall receive that interest as a tenant-in-common with all other Interest
Holders so entitled. Unless the Limited Partners otherwise agree, the fair
market value of such assets shall be determined by an independent appraiser
selected by the General Partner. The Profit or Loss for each unsold asset shall
be determined as if the asset had been sold at its fair market value, and the
Profit or Loss shall be allocated as provided in Section 4.1. and shall be
properly credited or charged to the Capital Accounts of the Interest Holders
prior to the distribution of the assets in liquidation pursuant to Section 4.3.
4.4.3. All Profit and Loss shall be allocated, and all
distributions shall be made, to the Persons shown on the records of the
Partnership to have been Interest Holders as of the last day of the taxable year
for which the allocation or distribution is to be made. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, unless the Partnership 's taxable year is separated into segments, if
there is a Transfer or an Involuntary Withdrawal during the taxable year, the
Profit and Loss shall be allocated between the original Interest Holder and the
successor on the basis of the number of days each was an Interest Holder during
the taxable year; provided, however, the Partnership 's taxable year shall be
segregated into two or more segments in order to account for Profit, Loss or
proceeds attributable to any extraordinary non-recurring items of the
Partnership.
4.4.4. The Partners are hereby authorized, upon the advice of
the Partnership's tax counsel, to amend this Article 4 to comply with the Code
and the Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704(b); provided, however,
that no amendment shall materially affect distributions to an Interest Holder
without the Interest Holder's prior written consent.
4.4.5. Restricted Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision
to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Partnership shall not be
required to make a distribution to any
-12-
Partner on account of its interest in the Partnership if such distribution would
violate Section 17-607 of the Act or other applicable law.

such Limited Partner shall be liable for all damages caused by breaching this
Agreement.

to the contrary notwithstanding, any claim based on or in respect of any

representative, heir, estate, successor or assign of any thereof), (b) any
predecessor or successor partnership or corporation (or other entity) the
Limited Partner, either directly or through the Limited Partner, or (c) any

connection with the organization and financing and operation of the Partnership;
and
5.2.1.11. to enter into any kind of activity necessary to, in
connection with, or incidental to, the accomplishment of the purposes of the

5.3. Meetings of and Voting By Partners.
5.3.1. A meeting of the Partners may be called at any time by
those Partners holding at least fifty percent (50%) of the Percentages then held
by Partners or by the General
-14-
Partner. Meetings of Partners shall be held (i) at the Partnership's principal
place of business, or (ii) at such place as the Partners shall unanimously
agree. Not less than ten (10) nor more than ninety (90) days before each
meeting, the Person calling the meeting shall give written notice of the meeting
to each Partner entitled to vote at the meeting. The notice shall state the
time, place and purpose of the meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions, each Partner who is entitled to notice waives notice if before or
after the meeting the Partner signs a waiver of the notice which is filed with
the records of Partners' meetings, or is present at the meeting in person or by
proxy. Unless this Agreement provides otherwise, at a meeting of Partners, the
presence in person or by proxy of Partners holding more than fifty percent (50%)
of the Percentages then held by Partners constitutes a quorum. A Partner may
vote either in person or by written proxy signed by the Partner or by his duly
authorized attorney in fact. Partners may participate in any meeting by means of
a conference telephone or similar communications equipment if all persons
participating in the meeting can hear each other at the same time. Any action
required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of Partners may be taken without
a meeting if there is filed with the records of Partners' meetings a unanimous
written consent which sets forth the action and is signed by each Partner
entitled to vote on the matter.
5.3.2. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement,
wherever this Agreement requires the approval of the Partners, the affirmative
vote of Partners holding more than fifty percent (50%) of the Percentages then
held by Partners shall be required to approve the matter. Except as otherwise
provided in this Agreement, wherever the Act requires unanimous consent to
approve or take any action, that consent shall be given in writing and, in all
cases, shall mean, rather than the consent of all Partners, the consent of
Partners holding more than fifty percent (50%) of the Percentages then held by
Partners. Where this Agreement requires unanimous consent to approve or take any
action, then the affirmative approval of all Partners shall be required for such
approval or the taking of such action.
5.4. Limitations on Power of General Partner.
5.4.1. The General Partner may not (a) file or consent to the
filing of a bankruptcy or insolvency petition or otherwise institute insolvency
proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, (b) make a
general assignment for the benefit of creditors or (c) consent to the
appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator,
custodian or any other similar official of Partnership property, without the
unanimous consent of all Partners, including the SPE Partner (as hereinafter
defined).
5.4.2. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the General
Partner shall not take any of the following actions while any amount under the
Loan remains outstanding:
(A) Dissolve, liquidate, consolidate, merge or sell all or
substantially all of the assets of the Partnership;
(B) Amend the Partnership's organizational documents unless
the Lender consents and, after securitization of the Loan the applicable rating
agencies confirm that
-15-
such amendment will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of
any securities rating.
5.5. Duties of Parties.
5.5.1. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict
in any way the rights of any Partner or any Affiliate of any Partner to conduct
any other business or activity whatsoever, and the Partner shall not be
accountable to the Partnership or to any Partner with respect to that business
or activity even if the business or activity competes with the Partnership's
business. The organization of the Partnership shall be without prejudice to
their respective rights (or the rights of their respective Affiliates) to
maintain, expand or diversify such other interests and activities and to receive
and enjoy profits or compensation therefrom. Each Partner waives any rights the
Partner might otherwise have to share or participate in such other interests or
activities of any other Partner or any Affiliate of any Partner.
5.5.2. Each Partner understands and acknowledges that the
conduct of the Partnership's business may involve business dealings and
undertakings with Partners and Affiliates of Partners. In any of those cases,
those dealings and undertakings shall be at arm's length and on commercially
reasonable terms.
5.5.3. To the extent that, at law or in equity, a Partner or
Affiliate has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating
thereto to the Partnership or to any other Partner, a Partner and its Affiliates
acting under this Agreement shall not be liable to the Partnership or to any
Partner for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement. The
provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and
liabilities of a Partner or Affiliate otherwise existing at law or in equity,
are agreed by the Partners to replace such other duties and liabilities of such
Partner or Affiliate.
5.5.4. The Partnership shall conduct its business and
operations in strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 6
TRANSFER OF INTERESTS AND WITHDRAWALS OF PARTNERS
6.1. Restrictions on Transfers. Partnership Rights may be Transferred,
as defined below, in whole or in part only in accordance with other specific
provisions of this Agreement and the following provisions:
-19-
6.1.1. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Transfer" or
"Transferred" shall mean the sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, or
other disposition, by operation of law or otherwise, of Partnership Rights.
6.1.2. Except with respect to the transfer provided for in
Section 6.9, Partnership Rights shall not be Transferred without the following:
(1) The full compliance with the terms of this Section 6.1;
(2) The consent of the Partner(s) owning the remaining
Partnership Rights;
(3) An opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Partner(s)
owning the remaining Partnership Rights, that the Transfer of the Partnership
Rights does not violate the Securities Act of 1933 or any applicable state
securities laws;
(4) The delivery by the transferee to the Partnership of a
written instrument agreeing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and a
counterpart signature page to this Agreement; and
(5) The delivery to the Partnership of (i) the transferee's
taxpayer identification number and (ii) the transferee's initial tax basis in
the Partnership Rights.
6.1.3. Any Transfer of Partnership Rights shall be effective
only to give the person to whom Transferred (the "Transferee") the right to
receive the share of tax allocations and distributions to which the person
transferring (the "Transferor") would otherwise be entitled. Except as otherwise
provided herein, no Transferee of a Partnership Rights shall have the right to
become a substituted Partner unless the Partner(s) owning the remaining
Partnership Rights, in the exercise of its or their sole and absolute
discretion, expressly consents thereto in writing and the Transferee agrees to
be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement as then in effect.
Unless and until a Transferee is admitted as a substituted Partner, the
Transferee shall have no right to exercise any of the powers, rights and
privileges of a Partner hereunder.
6.1.4. No Partner shall cause or permit to be created a lien
or security interest in its Partnership Rights.
6.1.5. Each Partner agrees not to Transfer all or any part of
its Partnership Rights (or take or omit any action, filing election, or other
action which could result in a deemed transfer) if such Transfer (either
considered along or in the aggregate with prior transfers by other Partners)
would result in the termination of the Partnership for federal income tax
purposes. In order to enable the Partners to identify Transfers which could
result in such a termination, each Partner covenants and agrees to immediately
inform the other Partners of any proposed Transfers (or deemed Transfers for
purposes of the Code).
-20-
6.1.6. Each Partner agrees not to Transfer all or any part of
its Partnership Rights (or take or omit any action, filing election, or other
action which could result in a deemed transfer) if such Transfer (either
considered alone or in the aggregate with prior transfers by other Partners)
would result in Partnership being subject to the Investment Company Act as
amended.
6.1.7. Any Transfer not in accord with this Section 6 shall be
void ab initio.
6.2. Right of First Refusal. Except in connection with the transfer
contemplated in Section 6.9, in the event that a Partner (the "Selling Partner")
desires to transfer to any third person all or a portion of its Partnership
Rights, the Selling Partner may do so only subject to the restrictions on
transfer contained in Section 6.1 and in full and complete compliance with the
procedures set forth in Section 6.1.3 and the procedures set forth below for
each instance or transfer.
6.2.1. The Selling Partner shall give written notice (the
"Notice") to each other Partner ("Offeree(s)") setting forth, in substance, the
following:
(1) That the Selling Partner has given to, or received from,
a third party (the "Offeror") a good faith written offer (the "Offer") to
transfer all or a part of its Partnership Rights (the "Offered Interest"); and
(2) That the Selling Partner thereby offers to transfer all
Offered Interest to the Offeree(s), pro rata according to its or their
respective Partnership Interests, at a price and upon such terms and conditions
as are set forth in the Offer, a true copy of which shall be attached to the
Notice.
6.2.2. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice
(the "Transfer Offering Period"), the Offeree(s) may, at its or their option,
elect to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Offered Interests by giving
written notice of the intention to do so to the Selling Partner. Any Offeree may
assign its purchase rights hereunder to any Partner owning Partnership Rights.
Closing of the purchase of the Offered Interests shall occur as set froth in
Section 6.5.
6.2.3. In the event that no Offeree(s) agree to purchase all
of the Offered Interests in accordance with subparagraph (2) of this Section
6.2, the Selling Partner shall provide Notice of such event to the General
Partner of the Partnership. The Partnership shall then have the amount of time
set forth in the Transfer Offering Period to determine, based on the Approval of
the Partners other than the Selling Partner, whether it shall elect to purchase
all (but not less than all) of the Offered Interests, by giving written notice
of its intention to do so to the Selling Partner. The Partnership may assign its
purchase rights hereunder to any Partner or other Person. Closing of the
purchase of the Offered Interests shall occur as set forth in Section 6.3.
Failure of the Partnership or its assignee to notify the Selling Partner of its
acceptance within the relevant Transfer Offering Period shall be deemed to be
its refusal to acquire the Offered Interests.
6.2.4. In the event that an offer to Transfer made pursuant to
Section 6.2.1, 6.2.2 or 6.2.3 is rejected, whether by expiration of the Transfer
Offering Period or otherwise, and the
-21-
Selling Partner has complied with the requirements of Section 6.1 and Section
6.2, the Selling Partner shall be permitted to Transfer the Offered Interests to
the Offeror upon the terms and conditions as stated in the Offer; provided,
however, that such Transfer may not be effected until the Offeror has executed
and adopted this Agreement or a counterpart thereof. Closing of the purchase of
the Offered Interest shall occur as set forth in Section 6.3. Transfer pursuant
to the Offer must be made within sixty (60) days following the expiration of the
relevant Transfer Offering Period and, if the Transfer is not made within such
time period, the Offered Interests shall again become subject to the
restrictions of this Agreement.
6.3. Closing of a Transfer. Closing for the Transfer of Partnership
Rights pursuant to Section 6.2 shall occur within sixty (60) days following
expiration of any relevant Transfer Offering Period and shall take place at the
office of the Partnership at 10:00 a.m. on the date so specified in the written
notice, or at such other time and place as shall be mutually agreeable. At such
closing, the seller must transfer and deliver the Partnership Rights to the
buyer and the buyer shall pay the agreed consideration to the seller. The seller
shall also deliver to the buyer an instrument executed by the seller, warranting
that the Partnership Rights are free and clear of all liens, claims, and
encumbrances of every kind. The seller shall also agree therein to indemnify the
buyer against and to hold it harmless from any loss, cost or damage which it may
incur by reason of the breach of such warranty. Further, in the event that the
seller shall fail to appear at the closing or shall fail to deliver the
certificate or certificates representing the Partnership Rights when required to
do so, or shall otherwise fail to comply with its obligations under this
Agreement, the buyer may thereupon place cash or immediately and available funds
equal to the purchase price in escrow for the seller, whereupon the Partnership
shall be privileged to cancel the seller's Partnership Rights and to treat the
Partnership Rights as having been purchased by the buyer. Such purchase price
shall be released from escrow only upon surrender by the seller of such
certificate or certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, or proof of
destruction or loss thereof satisfactory to the Partnership.
6.4. Effective Date of Sale. Any valid assignment of a Partner's
Interest and/or Partnership Rights in the Partnership, or part thereof, pursuant
to the provisions of Section 6.1.2. or Section 6.1.3. hereof shall be effective
as of the close of business on the last day of the calendar month in which the
conditions thereto (in the case of a Transfer pursuant to Section 6.1.2. or 6.9
hereof) or the conditions to Transfer (in the case of a Transfer pursuant to
Section 6.1.3. hereof) shall have been satisfied. The Partnership shall, from
the effective date of such assignment, thereafter pay all further distributions
on account of the Interest (or part thereof) so assigned, to the assignee of
such Interest, or part thereof. As between any Partner and its assignee, Profits
and Losses for the fiscal year of the Partnership in which such assignment
occurs shall be apportioned for federal income tax purposes in accordance with
any convention permitted under Section 706(d) of the Code and selected by the
Partners.
6.5. Transfers to Permitted Transferees. Subject to the restrictions on
transfer contained in Section 6.1, any Partner may, at any time and from time to
time, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 6.5,
Transfer to a Permitted Transferee, all, or any portion of, or any interest or
rights in, the Partnership Rights owned by the Partner. Any such assignee shall
not become a Partner without having first executed an instrument reasonably
satisfactory to the
-22-
other Partners accepting and agreeing to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, including a counterpart of this Agreement, and without having paid to
the Partnership a fee sufficient to cover all reasonable expenses of the
Partnership in connection with such assignee's admission as a Partner. If a
Partner assigns all of its Partnership Rights to a Permitted Transferee, and the
assignee of such Partnership Rights is entitled to become a Partner pursuant to
this Section 6.5, such assignee shall be admitted to the Partnership effective
immediately prior to the effective date of the assignment, and, immediately
following such admission, the assigning Partner shall cease to be a Partner of
the Partnership. In such event, the Partnership shall not dissolve if the
business of the Partnership is continued without dissolution in accordance with
Section 7.3. hereof.
6.6. Voluntary Withdrawal. No Partner shall have the right or power to
Voluntarily Withdraw from the Partnership.
6.7. Involuntary Withdrawal. Immediately upon the occurrence of an
Involuntary Withdrawal, the successor of the Withdrawn Partner shall thereupon
become an Interest Holder but shall not become a Partner without the unanimous
consent of the remaining Partners. If the Partnership is continued as provided
in Section 7.1.4., the successor Interest Holder shall have all the rights of an
Interest Holder but shall not be entitled to receive in liquidation of the
Interest the fair market value of the Partner's Interest as of the date the
Partner involuntarily withdrew from the Partnership.
6.8. Transfer of Ownership. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, except with respect to the transfer provided for in Section
6.9, no direct or indirect transfer of Partnership Rights may be made such that
the transferee possesses in the aggregate with the interests of all its
affiliates and family members, more than a 49% interest in the Partnership (or
such other interest as specified by a rating agency), unless (i) such transfer
is conditioned upon the delivery of an acceptable non-consolidation opinion to
the holder of the Mortgage Note and to any applicable rating agency concerning,
as applicable, the Partnership, the new transferee and/or their respective
owners, and (ii) the applicable rating agencies confirm that the transfer will
not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of any securities rating.
6.9. Transfer from CPA:14 to CPA:15. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, on or before December 31, 2004, CPA:15 may
purchase from CPA:14 up to a 29.999% Interest in the Partnership (the "Purchased
Interest"). The purchase price for the Purchased Interest shall be 29.999% times
the sum of (a) the aggregate Capital made to the Partnership by General Partner,
CPA:14 and CPA:15, and (b) of the total acquisition costs paid by the
Partnership in connection with the acquisition of the Property that was not
contributed to the Partnership as a capital contribution(the "CPA:15 Purchase
Price"). CPA:15 shall be required to purchase an interest in the Partnership
with a total purchase price equal to 10% of the net proceeds of its initial
public offering of common stock no later than December 31, 2004 but in no event
shall CPA:15 be required to purchase more than the Purchased Interest. Terrier
(AZ) 14-78, Inc. shall have no right of first refusal with respect to the
purchase of the Purchased Interest. Upon receipt by CPA:14 of the CPA:15
Purchase Price, the Interest purchased shall be automatically transferred to
CPA:15 and, subsequent to such transfer, the
-23-
books of the partnership shall reflect the respective ownership of the Partners.
No further action or documentation shall be required to effectuate such
transfer, however, within a reasonable period of time subsequent to the transfer
of the Interest, CPA:14 shall deliver to CPA:15 any and all documents required
to memorialize the transfer.
SECTION 7
DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALE OF ASSETS
7.1. Events of Dissolution. The Partnership may, upon the unanimous
consent of its Partners, be dissolved and its affairs wound up:
7.1.1. upon the unanimous written agreement of all of the
Partners; provided, however to the fullest extend permitted by law, the Partners
agree to waive the right to dissolve the Partnership while the Loan remains
outstanding.
7.1.2 upon the expiration of the term set forth in Section
2.4;
7.1.3. the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under
Section 17-802 of the Act; or
7.1.4. only after the Loan has been paid in full, upon the
occurrence of an Involuntary Withdrawal of a Partner, unless within 90 days
after the occurrence of the event, all of the remaining Partners agree in
writing to the continuation of the Partnership and to the appointment, if
necessary (in the case of the Involuntary Withdrawal of the General Partner) or
desired, effective as of the date of the occurrence of the event, of one or more
additional Partners of the Partnership.
7.2. Procedure for Winding Up and Dissolution. In the event that the
Partnership shall be dissolved, the Partnership shall be wound up and liquidated
in accordance with the law and the following provisions:
(a) The General Partner shall have authority to wind up the
Partnership affairs and to supervise its liquidation.
(b) Upon dissolution, the General Partner shall ensure that an
accounting of all property, assets and liabilities of the Partnership shall be
taken as soon as practicable.
(c) Each Partner shall pay to the Partnership all amounts
owing to the Partnership pursuant to any note which may have been executed by
the Partner in favor of the Partnership, together with any other sums required
by law to be paid.
-24-
(d) The assets and property of the Partnership or the proceeds
of any sale thereof, together with contributions received pursuant to the
preceding paragraph shall be applied in the following order:
(i) To discharge the debts and liabilities of the
Partnership, other than to the Partners, and the expenses of liquidation and to
establish satisfactory reserves to meet all reasonably anticipated liabilities;
and
(ii) To pay to each Partner amounts accrued and owing to it
for loans or other extensions of credit to the Partnership or upon contracts
with the Partnership or upon open account; and
(iii) After all allocations have been made pursuant to
Section 4.1 hereof (it being the intent not to restore negative capital
accounts), to distribute the balance in accordance with each Partner's Capital
Account.
Upon the final distribution of assets to the Partners, each of
the Partners shall be furnished with a statement which sets forth the assets and
liabilities of the Partnership as of the date of the complete liquidation. Upon
compliance by the General Partner with the foregoing distribution plan, the
General Partner shall execute and cause to be filed a certificate of
cancellation of the Partnership and any and all other documents necessary with
respect to termination and cancellation.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event the
Partnership is "liquidated" within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), liquidating distributions shall be made pursuant to this
Section 7.2 by the end of the taxable year in which the Partnership is
liquidated, or, if later, within 90 days after the date of such liquidation.
Distributions pursuant to the preceding sentence may be made to a trust for the
purpose of an orderly liquidation of the Partnership by the trust in accordance
with the Act.
7.3. Continuation of Business. Except as provided in Section 7.1.4. and
to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Partnership shall not be dissolved
and its affairs shall not be wound up upon the occurrence of an event that
causes a Partner to cease to be a Partner of the Partnership, and upon the
occurrence of such an event, the business of the Partnership shall be continued
without dissolution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, so long as the Note has not been paid in full and any event occurs
that could result in the dissolution or termination of the Partnership, the vote
of a majority of the remaining Partners shall be sufficient to continue the life
of the Partnership. If the required consent of the remaining Partners to
continue the Partnership is not obtained, the Partnership shall not liquidate
collateral (except as permitted under the transaction documents) without the
consent of the Lender (or securities issued in connection with the Loan). Such
Lender (or securities issued in connection with the Loan) may continue to
exercise all of its rights under the existing security agreements or mortgages,
and may retain the collateral until the debt has been paid in full or otherwise
completely discharged.
-25-
7.4. As so long as the Loan is outstanding, the Partnership shall
require the unanimous consent of all Partners to (including that of the General
Partner, which will in turn require the vote of an Independent Director):
7.4.1. File or consent to the filing of any bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization case or proceeding; institute any proceedings under
any applicable insolvency law or otherwise seek any relief under any laws
relating to the relief from debts or the protection of debtors generally;
7.4.2. Seek or consent to the appointment of a receiver,
liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator, custodian or any similar official
for the Partnership or a substantial portion of its properties;
7.4.3. Make any assignment for the benefit of the
Partnership's creditors; or
7.4.4. Take any action in furtherance of any of the foregoing.
The Partnership is prohibited from amending the provisions specified in section
7 herein without the consent of the Lender, or, after the securitization of the
Loan, only if the Partnership receives (i) confirmation from each of the
applicable rating agencies that such amendment would not result in the
qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of any securities rating and (ii)
approval of such amendment by the Lender or its assigns.

the Tax Matters Partner. The Partnership shall pay and be responsible for all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Tax Matters Partner in performing
those duties. A Partner shall be responsible for any costs incurred by the

proceeding against the Partner, even though the proceeding relates to the
Partnership. The Tax Matters Partner may not compromise any dispute with the
Internal Revenue Service without the approval of the Partners.

make all elections permitted under the Code, including, without limitation,

Agreement may not be amended without the written consent of all of the Partners.

contained herein. The indemnity obligations of the General Partner pursuant to
this Section 9.13 are
-29-
subject to the following limitations: (a) any such indemnity obligation of the
General Partner shall be subordinate to the General Partner's obligations to the
Partnership; and (b) any such indemnity obligation of the General Partner shall
be null, void and unenforceable if its enforcement would cause General Partner

the Partner an order for relief in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.
9.13.2. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary,
any indemnification claim against the Partnership arising under this Agreement
or the laws of the state of Delaware shall be fully subordinate to any
