Provided, however, that no Partner shall receive an allocation of losses that would create or increase a deficit in such Partner’s adjusted capital account balance within the meaning of Treas. Reg.

Any assignment permitted by or pursuant to this Agreement shall be by written instrument.
	5.2.		Conversion
			Conversion of a Partner from its existing form to another form shall not constitute an assignment for the purposes of this Agreement.

6.

DISSOLUTION OF THE PARTNERSHIP

	6.1		Liquidation
			Upon the occurrence of any Event of Dissolution as hereinafter defined, the Partners shall engage in no further business except as may be necessary to distribute the assets of the Partners and wind up the affairs of the Partnership: The Partners, acting jointly, shall appoint a liquidator (who may, but need not, be a Partner) who shall have sole authority and control over the winding up and liquidation of the Partners’ business and affairs and shall diligently pursue the winding up and liquidation of the Partnership. During the course of liquidation, there shall be no cash distributions to the Partners until the Distribution Date (as hereinafter defined).

	6.2		Events of Dissolution
			In addition to the causes of dissolution set forth in the Act, the Partners agreeing to dissolve the Partnership shall constitute an “Event of Dissolution” of the Partnership.
	6.3		Winding Up
			Liquidation shall continue until the Partnership’s affairs are in such condition that there can be a final accounting, showing that all fixed or liquidated obligations and liabilities of the Partners are satisfied or can be adequately provided for under this Agreement. The assumption or guarantee in good faith by one or more financially responsible persons shall be deemed to be an adequate means of providing for such obligations and liabilities. In the course of such winding up, the assets of the Partnership shall be distributed in kind to the Partners unless the Partners agree that the assets shall be sold.
	6.4		Liquidating Distributions
			When the liquidator has determined that there can be a final accounting, the liquidator shall establish a date for the distribution of the proceeds of liquidation of the Partnership (the “Distribution Date”). The assets of the Partnership, to the extent they are sufficient, shall be distributed in the following order on the Distribution Date:

	(a)		First to pay all expenses of liquidation and winding up;
	(b)		Second, to pay all debts of the Partnership, other than debts owing to the Partners;
	(c)		Third, to pay all debts owed to the Partners; and
	(d)		Fourth, to the Partners in proportion to their respective capital accounts until each Partner has received in cash or in kind distributions equal to any positive balance in the Partner’s capital account.

	6.5		No Deficit Restoration
			Neither Partner shall be liable for the return of the capital contributions of the other Partner, or any portion thereof; nor shall any Partner be required to pay any deficit in its capital account upon dissolution of the Partnership.

7.

	7.1		Fiscal Year
			The fiscal year of the Partnership for both financial and tax reporting purposes shall end on December 31 in each year.
