event the order of priority set forth in Section 4.4A shall be modified to the
extent necessary, but only to the extent necessary, to comply with such
applicable law. In this regard, all unsold Partnership Property shall first be
valued, as
B-12
provided in Section 4.5B, to determine the Profit or Loss that would have
resulted from a Sale of such Property, and, subject to the special rules of
Section 4.5, such Profit or Loss shall be allocated as provided in Section 4.IA
and shall be properly credited or charged to the Capital Accounts of the
Partners.
Section 4.5 General and Special Rules
A. Except as otherwise provided herein, the timing and amount of all
distributions shall be determined by the General Partners. No Partner shall have
the right to demand and receive any distribution of property other than cash.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partners
shall have authority to make the following distributions to certain of the Class
A Limited Partners following such Class A Limited Partners' admission to the
Partnership: First, if the Partnership has realized a savings on Selling
Commissions payable by the Partnership with respect to the purchase of Units by
a Class A Limited Partner, due to the purchase by such Class A Limited Partner
of 100 or more Units (as more fully set forth in the Prospectus), the General
Partners shall make a distribution to such Class A Limited Partner equal to the
amount of such savings realized by the Partnership. Second, if any interest is
earned on a Class A Limited Partner's Capital Contribution while it is held in
escrow, pending such Class A Limited Partner's admission to the Partnership,
such interest shall be paid by the Partnership to such Class A Limited Partner.
B. Subject to all of the special rules of this Section 4.5, if any
Partnership Property is distributed to the Partners in kind, such Partnership
Property first shall be valued on the basis of the fair market value thereof to
determine the Profit or Loss that would have resulted if such Partnership
Property had been sold, and then such Profit or Loss shall be allocated as
provided in Section 4.1A, and shall be properly credited or charged to the
Capital Accounts of the Partners in accordance with Treas. Reg.
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) or any successor provision thereto. Any Partner entitled to
any interest in such assets shall receive such interest as a tenant-in-common
with all other Partners so entitled. The fair market value of such assets shall
be determined by an independent appraiser who shall be selected by the General
Partners.
C. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
the allocation of Loss or deduction (or item thereof) attributable to
nonrecourse debt that is secured by any Property of the Partnership shall in no
event be permitted to the Partners having negative Capital Account balances to
the extent that the sum of negative Capital Account balances of the Partner or
Partners receiving such allocations would exceed the Minimum Gain (determined at
the end of the Partnership taxable year to which the allocations relate).
Instead, such Loss (or deduction or item thereof) shall be allocated first to
the Partners having positive Capital Accounts, in proportion to such positive
Capital Accounts, until all such positive Capital Accounts have been reduced to
zero, and any additional Loss (or deduction or item thereof) shall be allocated
to the Partners in accordance with the sharing arrangements set forth in this
Article IV. The Partner or Partners having negative Capital Account balances
resulting in whole or in part from allocations of Loss (or deduction or item
thereof) attributable to nonrecourse debt that is secured by Property of the
Partnership shall, to the extent possible, be allocated Profit (income, gain or
item thereof) in an amount no less than the excess of the sum of such negative
Capital Account balances over the Minimum Gain at a time no later than the time
at which the Minimum Gain is reduced below the sum of such negative Capital
Account balances.
D. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in
the event that at the end of any Partnership taxable year (i) any Partner's
Capital Account is adjusted for, or (ii) such Partner is allocated, or (iii)
there is distributed to such Partner, any item described in Treas. Reg.
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5)-or (6) in an amount not reasonably expected on the
date of execution of this Agreement and such treatment creates a deficit balance
in such Partner's Capital Account in excess of the deficit balance that is
permitted in accordance with Section 4.5C hereof (the "Excess Deficit Balance"),
then such Partner shall be allocated all items of income and gain of the
Partnership for such taxable year (as set forth below) and all subsequent
taxable years until such Excess Deficit Balance has been eliminated. In the
event that such unexpected adjustments create an Excess Deficit Balance in the
Capital Account of more than one Partner in any Partnership taxable year, all
items of income and gain (as set forth below) of the Partnership for such
taxable year and all subsequent taxable years shall be allocate among such
Partners in proportion to their Excess Deficit Balances until such Excess
Deficit Balances have been eliminated. Any remaining Profit or Loss, after
adjustment has
B-13
been made for allocation of income or gain pursuant to this Sections 4.5D, shall
be allocated in accordance. with Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 hereof. In allocating
Partnership income or gain to Partners with Excess Deficit Balances, the General
Partners shall first allocate taxable income of the Partnership. If allocations
of taxable income are insufficient to eliminate the Partners' Excess Deficit
Balances, the General Partners shall allocate items of gross income (as defined
in Section 61 of the Code) to Partners having Excess Deficit Balances in amounts
sufficient to eliminate such deficit balances. This Section 4.5D is intended to
be-a "qualified income offset" provision within the meaning of Treas. Reg.
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), and the General Partners shall be authorized to interpret
and apply this Section 4.5D so as to satisfy the requirement of the final
regulations and any successor provision.
E. If any Partner's Interest in the Partnership is reduced (provided such
reduction does not result in a complete termination of such Partner's Interest),
such Partner's share of the Partnership's "unrealized receivables" (within the
meaning of Section 751(c) of the Code), 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 4.1 hereof which is taxable as ordinary
income (recaptured) for federal income tax purposes as a result of the
application of Sections 704, 751, 1245 or 1250 of the Code shall, to the extent
possible without increasing the total gain to the Partnership or to any Partner,
be allocated among the Partners 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 Partners in their reasonably exercised discretion.
F. All Profit and Loss of the Partnership shall be allocated with respect to
each taxable year of the Partnership as of the end of, and within seventy-five
(75) days after the end of, such taxable year, or as soon thereafter as is
practically possible.
G. Generally, all Profit and Loss (other than Profit and Loss from a Sale)
shall be allocated, and Net Cash Flow shall be distributed, as the case may be,
to the Persons shown on the records of the Partnership to have been Partners as
of the last day of the taxable year for which such allocation or distribution is
to be made, subject to the special rules set forth in this Section 4.5G. The
Partnership shall adopt the "interim closing of the books" method of allocating
Partnership Profit and Loss, in accordance with a "semi-monthly convention" with
respect to the admission of Additional Limited Partners or Substitute Limited
Partners on or before the Termination Date of the Offering. Accordingly, if on
or before the Termination Date of the Offering, Additional Limited Partners
and/or Substitute Limited Partners are admitted to the Partnership (i) prior to
the sixteenth day of a calendar month, the Partnership will close its books as
of the end of the last day of the month prior to the month of admission, and
such Additional Limited Partners and/or Substitute Limited Partners shall be
treated as entering the Partnership on the first day of the month of admission;
or (ii) on or after the sixteenth day of a calendar month, the Partnership will
close its books as of the end of the fifteenth day of the month of admission,
and such Additional Limited Partners and/or Substituted Limited Partners shall
be treated as entering the Partnership on the sixteenth day of such month. After
the Termination Date of the Offering, a Substitute Limited Partner shall not be
admitted to the Partnership until the date on which the assignment to such
Substitute Limited Partner of an Interest in the Partnership becomes effective
as provided in Section 7.3B hereof (the "Effective Date"). Accordingly, a
Substitute Limited Partner shall be deemed to be the owner of an Interest in the
Partnership from and after the Effective Date, with such Substitute Limited
Partner being entitled to Partnership distributions and allocations of Profit
and Loss only with respect to Partnership operations commencing on the Effective
Date. Profit and Loss from a Sale shall be allocated, and Net Proceeds of an
Operational Stage Financing or Sale shall be distributed, among the Persons who
are recognized as Partners on the date of closing of such Operational Stage
Financing or Sale. Any distribution of Sale proceeds attributable to deferred
payments that are paid in a taxable year after the year of Sale shall be
distributed to the Persons who are recognized as Partners as of the date of such
distribution.
H. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any portion of the
Properties is "tax-exempt use property" within the meaning of Section 168(j)(3)
and (j)(9) of the Code (or any similar provision of law which may subsequently
be enacted), such portion shall be deemed allocated specially to the Tax-Exempt
Partner(s),
B-14
and cost recovery deductions shall be allocated proportionately among the
Partners other than the Tax-Exempt Partners in such amounts so that, to the
maximum extent possible, the cost recovery deductions otherwise allocable to the
Partners other than the Tax-Exempt Partners shall not be reduced as a result of
such characterization, the intent of this Section being to provide that the
Partners other than the Tax-Exempt Partners shall be entitled to those cost
recovery deductions which would have been available if no portion of the
Property were "tax-exempt use property." If there is more than one Tax-Exempt
Partner, such allocations shall be made in proportion to their respective
Limited Partner Percentages.
I. In the event that any Class A Limited Partner fails to furnish to the
General Partners evidence, in form and substance satisfactory to the General
Partners, establishing that the General Partners have no obligation under
Section 1445 of the Code with respect to such Class A Limited Partner to
withhold and pay over an amount to the Internal Revenue Service, the General
Partners may, in their sole discretion, withhold with respect to such Class A
Limited Partner the amount they would be required to withhold pursuant to
Section 1445 of the Code if such Class A Limited Partner were not a U.S. Person,
and any amount so withheld shall be treated as a distribution under Sections
4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 of this Agreement, as the case may be, and shall reduce the
amount otherwise distributable to such Class A Limited Partner thereunder.
