The Managing Partner shall cause the Partnership, in calculating its income or loss for income tax purposes for any fiscal year, to deduct capital cost allowance and such other discretionary deductions under the Income Tax Act as the Managing Partner may determine for that year.

5.3                               Allocations of Income and Loss for Income Tax Purposes

Unless a different allocation of income or loss for tax purposes has been unanimously agreed to by the Partners, subject to Section 5.4 and 5.8 hereof all income and loss for income tax purposes of the Partnership, which are received or receivable by the Partnership, and all amounts which are separately

10

allocable for the purposes of the Income Tax Act or any other applicable provincial legislation shall be determined on at the end of each fiscal year of the Partnership and allocated among the Partners in accordance with their Partnership Interests at the end of such fiscal year.

5.4                               Allocations to Former Partners

Amounts which are relevant for income tax purposes for a particular fiscal year of the Partnership and which are otherwise allocable pursuant to Section 5.3 hereof, shall be allocated to a Partner who ceased to be a Partner during the particular fiscal year (a “former Partner”) pursuant to the terms of any agreement made between the Partnership and such former Partner notwithstanding that such former Partner is not a Partner at the end of the particular fiscal year, to the extent of any Partnership Interest redeemed, repurchased or otherwise retired during the particular fiscal year on the basis of the proportion such amounts bear to the portion of the fiscal year of the Partnership ending on the last day of the month following the effective date of the termination of such Partnership Interest, subject to the particular terms of the agreement between the Partnership and the specific former Partner to whom such allocation is to be made.  Such allocations shall be treated by the Partnership and by the former Partner as allocations of a share of income under subsection 96(1.1) of the Income Tax Act with the result that such payments will be treated as allocations of the earnings and income of the Partnership for tax purposes and treated by the former Partner as income as if the former Partner were still a Partner.  Notwithstanding any intention to cease being a Partner of the Partnership, a former Partner may, pursuant to the terms of any agreement between the Partnership and the former Partner, retain a residual Partnership Interest for the purposes of section 98.1 of the Income Tax Act.

The Partners may also jointly elect, if applicable, in prescribed form, pursuant to section 22 of the Income Tax Act and section 167 of the Excise Tax Act, if necessary; and

(b)                                 the Partners and the Partnership may, if they qualify to do so, jointly file an election pursuant to section 156 of the Excise Tax Act with respect to GST.  This election deems supplies made between the Partners and the Partnership to be made for nil consideration.

5.6                               Income Account

An individual income account will be maintained in the records of the Partnership for each of the Partners, to which account there shall be credited or debited the respective interest and share of such Partner in the Net Profit or the Net Loss of the Partnership and to which account there shall be debited all distributions of Net Profit to such Partner. To the extent that the Partnership has funds on hand which funds are not, in the opinion of the Managing Partner, needed to satisfy existing or foreseeable obligations

11

of the Partnership, the Managing Partner may distribute such funds to the Partners according to the Partnership Interest of each Partner.

5.7                               Other Distributions

The Managing Partner may make such other distributions to the Partners from time to time as it may consider appropriate.

5.8                               Distribution of Property

Where an interest in any one or more of the Partnership Properties is distributed to a Partner any income or loss realized or deemed to be realized as a result of such distribution by the Partnership for purposes of the Income Tax Act shall be allocated to such Partner to whom such distribution is made, subject to any agreement between the Managing Partner on behalf of the Partnership and the specific Partner to whom such allocation is to be made.

DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION

9.1                               Dissolution

The Partnership shall be dissolved upon the occurrence of any of the following:

(a)                                  The unanimous consent of the Partners at any time;

(b)                                 The bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or termination of any Partner (except as a consequence of amalgamation, merger or consolidation) or the occurrence of any other event which would permit a trustee or receiver to acquire control of the property or affairs of such Partner;

(c)                                  The adjudication of bankruptcy or insolvency of the Partnership or the assignment by the Partnership for the benefit of creditors;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the dissolution of the Partnership by the death, legal disability, dissolution, termination, bankruptcy, insolvency or withdrawal of a Partner, the remaining Partners will have the right to continue the Partnership by unanimous consent; and, upon the occurrence of any such event, if the Partnership is continued, the estate, personal representative, guardian or other successor in interest of the Partner(s) causing the dissolution under this Article:

(i)                                     will continue to be liable for all of the debts and obligations of such Partner pursuant to the Act and to this Agreement; and
