Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the General Partner shall, prior to making any allocations required by Section 4.1, make any allocations required by the “minimum gain chargeback” provision of Treasury Regulations § 1.704-2(f), the “chargeback of partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” provision of Treasury Regulations § 1.704-2(i)(4) and the “qualified income offset provision of Treasury Regulations § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d); in addition, (i) partnership nonrecourse deductions (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations § 1.704-2(b)) shall be allocated to the Partners in proportion to their Percentage Interests and (ii) partner nonrecourse deductions (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations § 1.704-2(i)(2)) shall be allocated to the Partner that bears the economic risk of loss for the liability in accordance with Treasury Regulations § 1.704-2(i).

The General Partner may also make allocations reasonably designed to offset allocations provided for in this Section 4.2 to the extent such allocations shall not be offset by other allocations provided for in this Section 4.2.

(c) Solely for purposes of adjusting Capital Accounts (and not for tax purposes), if any property is distributed in kind, the difference between the fair market value of the property and its book value at the time of distribution shall be treated as gain or loss recognized by the Partnership and allocated pursuant to Section 4.1.

(d) Except to the extent otherwise required by the Code and Treasury Regulations, if an Interest or part thereof is transferred in any Fiscal Year, the items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit allocable to the Interest for such Fiscal Year shall be apportioned between the transferor and the transferee in proportion to the number of days in such Fiscal Year the Interest is held by each of them, except that, if they agree between themselves and so notify the Partnership within 30 days after the transfer, then at their option and expense, (i) all items or (ii) extraordinary items, including capital gains and losses, may be allocated to the Person who held the Interest on the date such items were realized or incurred by the Partnership.

Section 4.3. Allocations for Income Tax Purposes. The income, gains, losses, deductions and credits of the Partnership for Federal, state and local income tax purposes shall be allocated in the same manner as the corresponding items entering into the computation of Net Income and Net Losses were allocated pursuant to Sections 4.1 and 4.2, provided that solely for Federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes and not for book or Capital Account purposes, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to property properly carried on the Partnership’s books at a value other than its tax basis shall be allocated in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 704 (c) and Treasury Regulations § 1.704-3, using any method permitted by the Treasury Regulations that the General Partner deems to be appropriate.

Section 4.4. Withholding.

In the event of any claimed over-withholding, Partners shall be limited to an action against the applicable jurisdiction. If the amount withheld was not withheld from actual distributions, the Partnership may, at its option, (i) require the Partner to reimburse the Partnership for such withholding or (ii) reduce any subsequent distributions by the amount of such withholding. Each Partner agrees to furnish the Partnership with any representations and forms as shall reasonably be requested by the Partnership to assist it in determining the extent of, and in fulfilling, its withholding obligations.

Section 4.5. Revaluation of Property. (a) The assets of the Partnership may be revalued on the books of the Partnership to equal their fair market values in accordance with Treasury Regulations § 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) at the following times: (A) immediately prior to the acquisition of an additional Interest in the Partnership by any existing or new Partner in exchange for more than a de minimis Class C Capital Contribution to the capital of the Partnership pursuant to Sections 3.2, and 7.4; (B) immediately prior to any in-kind distribution pursuant to Section 5.2 (other

than a de minimis amount) before taking into account such distribution; (C) immediately prior to any withdrawal of more than a de minimis portion of the Capital Account pursuant to Section 5.3 before taking into account such withdrawal; and (D) the occurrence of any other event upon which the General Partner believes such revaluation is appropriate. Upon revaluation of the Partnership’s assets pursuant to this Section 4.5(a), (i) the fair market value of the assets shall be determined by the Partners and (ii) each Partner’s Capital Account shall be adjusted as if such assets were sold for their fair market values and the Net Income and Net Losses recognized on such sale were allocated to the Partners in accordance with Section 4.1.

(b) Immediately following the occurrence of any event which has caused the revaluation of the assets of the Partnership pursuant to Section 4.5(a), each Partner’s Percentage Interest shall be adjusted to equal the percentage determined by dividing the balance in each Partner’s Capital Account less such Partner’s Class B Amount immediately after such revaluation by the aggregate balance of all Partners’ Capital Accounts less all Partners’ Class B Amounts immediately after such revaluation.

(c) For purposes of Section 4.1, the Fiscal Year in which the assets of the Partnership are revalued pursuant to Section 4.5(a) shall be treated as two separate portions of a Fiscal Year, one beginning on the first day of the Fiscal Year and ending on the day of the revaluation and the other beginning on the day immediately following the revaluation and ending on the last day of the Fiscal Year, and Net Income and Net Loss shall be allocated to the Partners separately for each portion of the Fiscal Year based on operations for such portion of the year as reflected by a closing of the Partnership’s books. Analogous divisions of the Fiscal Year into multiple portions of a Fiscal Year will be made if there is more than one revaluation of assets in any Fiscal Year.

The economic provisions of this Agreement are predicated upon estimates of the fair market value of various assets, properties and interests as of the date of the contributions or distributions, which in turn were based upon estimates, studies and reports prepared prior to the closing date of the applicable transaction. To the extent it is determined that the actual fair market value of those assets, properties and interests as of the closing date is materially different from the pre-closing estimates, the parties agree to make post-closing adjustments by applying the revised fair market values as of the closing date to the economic provisions of this Agreement in order to achieve as closely as possible the intended relative economic balance between the interests of the parties. The parties agree to fully cooperate and to execute any and all documents and, if required, transfer funds, assets or property to achieve this result.

The Limited Partners authorize, consent to and approve such present and future activities by such Persons, whether or not such activities may conflict with any interest of the Partnership or any of the Partners or be competitive with the business of the Partnership or represent an opportunity that the Partnership might wish to engage in. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the General Partner shall not have any obligation or responsibility to disclose or refer any such investments or other activities to the Partnership or any Partner.

(a) without the prior consent of the specific act by all the Limited Partners given in this Agreement or by other written instrument executed and delivered by all the Limited Partners subsequent to the date of this Agreement, cause or permit the Partnership to knowingly perform any act that would subject any Limited Partner to liability as a general partner in any jurisdiction.

Section 8.9. Indemnification.

(a) The Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless the General Partner, its affiliates and the officers, agents, partners and employees of the General Partner and its affiliates of the General Partner (each an “Indemnified Party”), from and against any loss, expense, damage or injury suffered or sustained by them, by reason of any acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions arising out of their activities on behalf of the Partnership or in furtherance of the interests of the Partnership, including but not limited to any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened action, proceeding or claim and including any payments made by the General Partner to any affiliate, or any of their respective officers, agents or employees pursuant to an indemnification agreement no broader than this Section 8.9, provided, that none of the General Partner, any of its affiliates, any officer, agent or employee of the General Partner or any of its affiliates shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 8.9(a) if the acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions upon which such actual or threatened action, proceeding or claims are based were performed or omitted fraudulently or in bad faith or constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct.

ARTICLE IX

TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS BY PARTNERS

Section 9.1. General.

(a) No Partner may sell, assign, pledge, or in any manner dispose of, or create, or suffer the creation of, a security interest in or any encumbrance on all or a portion of its Interest in the Partnership (the commission of any such act being referred to as a “Transfer”, any person who effects a Transfer being referred to as a “Transferor” and any person to whom a Transfer is effected being referred to as a “Transferee”), except as otherwise provided in Section 9.1(d), unless such Transfer is made in accordance with the provisions of this Article IX. No Transfer of an Interest in the Partnership shall be effective until such date as all requirements of this Article IX in respect thereof have been satisfied and, if consents, approvals or waivers are required by the General Partner, all of same shall have been confirmed in writing by the General Partner. Any Transfer or purported Transfer of an Interest in the Partnership not made in accordance with this Agreement (a “Void Transfer”) shall be null and void and of no force or effect whatsoever. Any amounts otherwise distributable to a Limited Partner pursuant to Article V, in respect of a direct or indirect interest in the Partnership that has been Transferred in violation of this Section 9.1, may be withheld by the General Partner following the occurrence of a Void Transfer until the Void Transfer has been rescinded, whereupon the amount withheld shall be distributed without interest.

(b) The Transferee of a Limited Partner’s Interest in the Partnership may be admitted to the Partnership as a Substituted Limited Partner only upon the receipt of the prior written consent of the General Partner, which consent may be given or withheld in the General Partner’s sole discretion. Unless a Transferee of a Limited Partner’s Interest in the Partnership is admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner under this Section 9.l(b), it shall have none of the powers of a Limited Partner hereunder and shall only have such rights of an assignee under the Act as are consistent with the other terms and provisions of this Agreement. No Transferee of a Limited Partner’s Interest shall become a Substituted Limited Partner unless such Transfer shall be made in compliance with Section 9.1(a) and Section 9.3. No Transferee of the General Partner’s Interest in the Partnership shall be admitted to the Partnership as a General Partner without the prior consent of a Majority-in-Interest of the Limited Partners, which consent may be given or withheld in the sole discretion of each Limited Partner. Unless a Transferee of the General Partner’s Interest in the Partnership is admitted as a General Partner under this Section 9.l(b), it shall have none of the powers of a General Partner hereunder and shall have only the rights of an assignee of a limited partnership interest under the Act as are consistent with the other terms and provisions of this Agreement.

(c) Upon the Transfer of the entire Interest in the Partnership of a Partner and effective upon the admission of such Partner’s Transferee pursuant to Section 9.l(b) above, the transferring Partner shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the Partnership as a Partner, provided that in the case of a Transfer by the General Partner, the Transferee must be admitted as a General Partner.

(d) Upon the death, disability, winding-up and termination (in the case of a Partner that is a partnership), dissolution and termination (in the case of a Partner that is a corporation), termination (in the case of a Partner that is a trust), withdrawal in contravention of Section 10.1 or occurrence of an event described in Section 15642 of the Act with regard to a General Partner, or an event described in Section 15663 or Section 15675 of the Act with regard to a Limited Partner (whether a Limited Partner or a General Partner, the “Withdrawing Partner”), the General Partner shall have the right to treat any successor(s)-in-interest to the Withdrawing Limited Partner as assignees of the Interest in the Partnership of the Withdrawing Limited Partner, with only such rights of an assignee of a partnership interest under the Act as are consistent with the other terms and provisions of this Agreement and with no other rights under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the successor(s)-in-interest of the Withdrawing Limited Partner shall only have the rights to allocations and distributions provided in Articles IV, V and X, unless otherwise waived by the General Partner in its sole discretion. For purposes of this Section 9.l(d), if the Withdrawing Limited Partner’s Interest in the Partnership is held by more than one person (for purposes of this subsection, the “Assignees”), the Assignees shall appoint one person with full authority to accept notices and distributions with respect to such Interest in the Partnership on behalf of the Assignees and to bind them with respect to all matters in connection with the Partnership or this Agreement.

(e) The General Partner shall reflect each Transfer and admission authorized under this Article IX (including the terms and conditions imposed thereon by the General Partner) by preparing an amendment to this Agreement, dated as of the date of such Transfer, including without limitation an amendment of Exhibit A attached hereto to reflect such Transfer or admission. The form and content of all documentation delivered to the General Partner pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be subject to the approval of the General Partner, which approval may be granted or withheld in the General Partner’s sole discretion.

Section 9.2. Consequences of Transfers Generally.

(a) In the event of any Transfer or Transfers permitted under this Article IX, the Transferor and the Interest in the Partnership that is the subject of such Transfer shall remain subject to all terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Transferee shall hold such Interest in the Partnership subject to all unperformed obligations of the Transferor and shall agree in writing to the foregoing if requested by the General Partner. Any successor or Transferee hereunder or any successor general partner shall be subject to and bound by all the provisions of this Agreement as if originally a party to this Agreement.

(b) Unless a Transferee of a Limited Partner’s Interest becomes a Substituted Limited Partner, such Transferee shall have no right to obtain or require any information or account of Partnership transactions, or to inspect the Partnership’s books, or to vote on Partnership matters. Such a Transfer shall, subject to the last sentence of Section 9 .1 (a), merely entitle the Transferee to receive the share of distributions, income and losses to which the transferring Limited Partner otherwise would be entitled. Each Limited Partner agrees that such Limited Partner will, upon request of the General Partner, execute such certificates or other documents and perform such acts as the General Partner deems appropriate after a Transfer of that Limited Partner’s Interest in the Partnership (whether or not the Transferee becomes a Substituted Limited Partner) to preserve the limited liability of the Limited Partners under the laws of the jurisdictions in which the Partnership is doing business.

(c) The Transfer of a Limited Partner’s Interest in the Partnership and the admission of a Substituted Limited Partner shall not be cause for dissolution of the Partnership.

Section 9.3. Right of First Offer. Each Partner agrees that, except for a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee, the Partner will not sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, divide, assign or otherwise alienate any of the Partner’s Interest in the Partnership or any right, title or interest therein, without the prior written consent of the Partnership and of the other Partners, unless the Partner shall have first made the offer to sell hereinafter set forth:

(a) The offering Partner shall deliver a written offer to the Partnership and to the other Partners specifying the Interest in the Partnership (the “Offered Interest”), the name and address of the prospective transferee, the proposed price, and the other terms of the transfer.

(b) For a period of 60 days following receipt of the offer, the Partnership shall have the option to purchase all or any portion of the Offered Interest. If the Partnership exercises the option, the Partnership shall give written notice of the exercise to the offering Partner. The terms and conditions of the purchase shall be as specified in the offer; provided, however, that the price to be paid shall be the lesser of the price set forth in the offer, or the price determined in Section 9.4 below. The Partnership shall pay the purchase price in accordance with Section 9.4(b) below.

(c) If the Partnership does not purchase all or any portion of the Offered Interest within the 60 days after receipt of the offer, each non-offering Partner shall have for the ensuing 60-day period the option to purchase that portion of the Offered Interest not purchased by the Partnership as the size of the Interest in the Partnership owned by the non-offering Partner at the date the Partnership’s option expired shall bear to the size of the Interest in the Partnership owned by all non-offering Partners at that date; provided, however, that if any non-offering Partner does not purchase his full proportionate share of the remaining Offered Interest, the unaccepted Interest may be purchased by the other non-offering Partners within an additional 10-day period. If a non-offering Partner exercises the option within the aforementioned period, such Partner shall give written notice of that fact to the offering Partner. The terms and conditions of the purchase referred to herein shall be as specified in the offer; provided, however, that the price to be paid shall be the lesser of the price set forth in the offer, or the price determined in Section 9.4 below. The purchase price shall be paid in accordance with Section 9.4(b) below.

(d) All Offered Interest not purchased by the Partnership or by the non-offering Partners within 130 days after receipt of the offer shall be free of the terms of this Agreement for the period of the ensuing 30 days, and the offering Partner may make a bona fide transfer to the prospective transferee named in the offer according to its terms and conditions. If the offering Partner fails to make a transfer of the Offered Interest to the prospective transferee within said 30-day period, all such untransferred Interests shall again become subject to the terms and restrictions of this Agreement.

Section 9.4. Prices, Payment of Price.

(a) Price of Interest. The price of the Interest in the Partnership to be purchased and sold under this Agreement shall be fixed by a certificate setting forth such fixed price, which certificate shall be attached hereto and dated and executed by persons owning in the aggregate not less than sixty-six and two-third percent (66-2/3%) of the outstanding Class C Interests. The fixed price set forth in the certificate attached hereto shall be binding on the Partners and all persons becoming

parties to this Agreement for a period of 18 months after the date said price is fixed. If no price has been fixed for more than 18 months prior to the event giving rise to a purchase of the Interest in the Partnership pursuant to this Agreement, the fair market value of each share to be sold shall, if possible be determined by mutual agreement between the selling Partner and any purchaser. Within 60 days after the exercise of a right to purchase, the selling Partner and the purchaser shall each set the fair market value of the Interest to be sold. Within 30 days thereafter, the parties shall endeavor to agree mutually on a single fair market value. If they cannot agree, the fair market value shall be established by an appraisal. Should an appraisal be necessary, either the selling Partner or the purchaser may ask the American Arbitration Society to appoint an arbitrator who shall within 30 days after appointment select one or the other of the two fair market values established by the selling Partner or the purchaser as set forth above. The determination of the arbitrator shall be binding upon all of the Partners and shall be the purchase price for the Interest in the Partnership.

(b) Payment of Price. In the event of the proper and timely exercise by any purchaser of any option arising hereunder to purchase all or any part of the Interest of a Partner, the price with respect to the Interest may be paid at purchaser’s election either: (i) in total, in cash or in kind, or partly in each, delivered to the seller on or before the 60th day after the period within which the option must be exercised; or (ii) in installments, in cash or in kind, or partly in each, as follows: twenty-five (25%) on or before the 60th day after the period within which the option must be exercised and the balance in 10 equal semi-annual installments thereafter including interest at the rate required by section 1274 of the Internal Revenue Code to avoid unstated interest. Any property of the Partnership which is proposed to be used for in kind payment for interest in the Partnership shall be so used only by agreement between the Partnership and the Partner (or estate) whose Interest in the Partnership is being purchased and the value thereof shall be in accordance with the agreement between the seller and the purchaser at the time of such payment in kind.

Section 9.5. Capital Account. Any Transferee of a Partner admitted as a Partner pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX shall succeed to the Capital Account so Transferred to such Person.

Section 9.6. Additional Filings. Upon the admission of a Substituted Limited Partner under Section 9.1(b), the General Partner shall cause to be executed, filed and recorded with the appropriate governmental agencies such documents (including amendments to this Agreement) as are required to accomplish such substitution.

Section 10.2. Dissolution of Partnership.

(a) The Partnership shall be dissolved, wound up and terminated as provided herein upon the occurrence of earliest of the following events:

(i) the unanimous decision of all Partners to dissolve the Partnership;

(ii) a General Partner is dissolved, becomes bankrupt or otherwise ceases to be a general partner under Section 15642 of the Act, unless (x) at the time there is at least one other General Partner and the remaining General Partner or General Partners carry on the business of the Partnership or (y) if at the time there is no remaining General Partner, all of the Limited Partners agree in writing to continue the business of the Partnership and, within six months after the General Partner has ceased to be a general partner under Section 15642 of the Act, admit one or more General Partners; or

(iii) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 15682 of the Act; or

(iv) any event which would make it unlawful for the business of the Partnership to be carried on; or

(v) the sale or other distribution of all of the assets of the Partnership.

(b) In the event of the dissolution of the Partnership for any reason, the General Partner remaining in the Partnership, or, if the General Partner is not remaining, then a liquidating agent or committee appointed by a Majority-in-Interest of the Limited Partners (the General Partner or such Person or committee so designated hereinafter referred to as the “Liquidator”), shall begin to wind up the affairs of the Partnership and to liquidate the Partnership’s assets. The Partners shall continue to share all income, losses and distributions during the period of liquidation in accordance with Articles IV and V. The Liquidator shall have full right and unlimited discretion to determine the time, manner and terms of any sale or sales of Partnership property pursuant to such liquidation, giving due regard to the activity and condition of the relevant market and general financial and economic conditions.

(c) The Liquidator shall have all of the rights and powers with respect to the assets and liabilities of the Partnership in connection with the liquidation and termination of the Partnership that the General Partner would have with respect to the assets and liabilities of the Partnership during the term of the Partnership, and the Liquidator is hereby expressly authorized and empowered to execute and file any and all documents (including a certificate of dissolution) necessary or desirable to effectuate the liquidation and termination of the Partnership and the transfer of any assets.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Liquidator which is not the General Partner shall not be deemed a Partner in this Partnership and shall not have any of the economic interests in the Partnership of a Partner; and such Liquidator shall be compensated for its services to the Partnership at normal, customary and competitive rates for its services to the Partnership as reasonably determined by all of the Limited Partners.

Section 10.3. Distribution in Liquidation. The Liquidator shall, as soon as practicable, wind up the affairs of the Partnership and sell and/or distribute the assets of the Partnership. The assets of the Partnership shall be applied in the following order of priority:

(a) First, secured debts to third parties and Partners, unless such secured indebtedness is assumed by a purchaser of the encumbered property or the conveyance of such encumbered property to such purchaser is made subject to such indebtedness;

(b) Second, unsecured debts of the Partnership other than to Partners;

(d) fourth, to the Partners an amount equal to the aggregate Class B Liquidation Amounts of all Partners on the date of such liquidation in proportion to their Class B Liquidation Amounts;

(e) fifth, to the Partners to the extent necessary to bring their Capital Accounts into the same ratio as their Percentage Interests; and

(f) sixth, to the Partners in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

If the Liquidator, in its sole discretion, determines that assets other than cash are to be distributed, then the Liquidator shall cause the fair market value of the assets not so liquidated to be determined. Such assets shall be retained or distributed by the Liquidator as follows:

(i) The Liquidator shall retain assets having an appraised value, net of any liability related thereto, equal to the amount by which the net proceeds of liquidated assets are insufficient to satisfy the requirements of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 10.3; and

(ii) The remaining assets shale be distributed to the Partners in the same proportion as cash would be distributed to the Partners pursuant to paragraphs (c) through (f), inclusive, of this Section 10.3.

If the Liquidator, in its sole discretion, deems it not feasible or desirable to distribute to each Partner its allocable share of each asset, the Liquidator may allocate and distribute specific assets to one or more Partners, individually or as tenants-in-common, as the Liquidator shall in good faith determine to be fair and equitable, taking into consideration, inter alia, the fair market value of the assets, the liens, if any, to which such property may be subject and the tax consequences of the proposed distribution to each of the Partners (including both distributees and others if any). Any distributions in kind shall be subject to such conditions relating to the disposition and management thereof as the Liquidator deems reasonable and equitable.

Section 10.4. Rights of the Limited Partners. Each of the Limited Partners shall look solely to the assets of the Partnership for all distributions with respect to the Partnership and

such Partner’s Capital Contribution (including return thereof), and such Partner’s share of profits or losses thereof, and shall have no recourse therefor (upon dissolution or otherwise) against the General Partner or any other Limited Partner. No Partner shall have any right to demand or receive property other than cash upon dissolution and termination of the Partnership.

Section 10.5. Termination. The Partnership shall terminate when all property owned by the Partnership shall have been disposed of and the assets shall have been distributed as provided in Section 10.3. The Liquidator shall then execute and cause to be filed a Certificate of Cancellation of the Partnership.

Section 11.1. Amendments. Amendments to this Agreement which do not adversely affect the right of any Limited Partner in any material respect may be made by the General Partner without the consent of any Limited Partner through use of the power of attorney if those amendments are for the purpose of admitting Additional Limited Partners or Substituted Limited Partners as permitted by this Agreement, including, without limitation, amendments to Exhibit A hereto to reflect the admission of such Additional and Substituted Limited Partners and to reflect changes in the Capital Contributions of the Partners.
