This Section 12.03(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain charge back requirement in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(b)       Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article XII except the foregoing subsection (a) [Minimum Gain Chargeback], if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt during any Fiscal Year, then, to the extent required by Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4), each Member who has a share of the Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i)(5) of the Regulations, shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Section 1.704- 2(i)(4) of the Regulations. Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be determined in accordance with Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2) of the Regulations. This Section 12.03(b) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Section 1.704- 2(i)(4) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c)       Qualified Income Offset.  In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(d)(6) which would cause such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, such Member shall he specially allocated items of Company income and gain in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Member as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 12.03(c) shall be made if and only to the extent that the Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Article XII have been tentatively made as if this Section 12.03(c) were not in this Agreement.

15  

(d)       Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Fiscal Year which is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount such Member is obligated to restore and (ii) the amount such Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Sections 1.704-2(g)(l) and 1.704-2(i)(5) of the Regulations, each such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, however, an allocation pursuant to this Section 12.03(d) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article XII have been tentatively made as if Section 12.03(c) and this Section 12.0(d) were not in this Agreement.

(e)       Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year or other period shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages.

(f)       Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year or other period shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i)(l) of the Regulations.

(g)       Section 754 Adjustment. To the extent that an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, pursuant to Sections 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(m) of the Regulations, the amount of such 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 such basis), and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the Regulations.

12.04   Other Allocations Rules.

(a)       For purposes of determining the Net Profits, Net Losses, or any other items allocable to any period, Net Profits, Net Losses and any other items, shall be determined on a daily, monthly, or other basis, as determined by the Members using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Regulations thereunder.

(b)       Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all items of Company income, gain, loss, and deduction and any other allocations not otherwise provided for shall be divided among the Members in the same proportions as they share Net Profits or Net Losses, as the case may be, for the year.

(c)       The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Article XII and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article XII in reporting their share of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

16  

12.05 Tax Allocations: Code Section 704(c).

(a)     In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial book value.

(b)    In the event the book value of any Company asset is adjusted, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such asset shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its book value in the same manner as required under Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder.

(c)     Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Members in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 12.05 are solely for purposes of federal, state, and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing any Member’s Capital Account or share of Net Profits, Net Losses, or other items or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.
