Allocation of Tax Items To the extent permitted by section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i) of the Treasury Regulations, all items of income, gain, loss and deduction for federal and state income tax purposes shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with the corresponding "book" items thereof; however, all items of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to Assets with respect to which there is a difference between "book" value and adjusted tax basis shall be allocated in accordance with the principles of section 704(c) of the IRS Code and section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i) of the Treasury Regulations, if applicable. Where a disparity exists between the book value of an Asset and its adjusted tax basis, then solely for tax purposes (and not for purposes of computing Capital Accounts), income, gain, loss, deduction and credit with respect to such Asset shall be allocated among the Members to take such difference into account in accordance with section 704(c)(i)(A) of the IRS Code and Treasury Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i). The allocations eliminating such disparities shall be made using any reasonable method permitted by the Code, as determined by the Manager.
Allocation of Tax Liabilities The provisions of this Section 2 are intended to determine each Company's liability for Taxes with respect to Pre-Distribution Periods. Once the liability has been determined under this Section 2, Section 5 determines the time when payment of the liability is to be made, and whether the payment is to be made to the Tax Authority directly or to another Company.
Allocation of Taxes For purposes of determining the amount of Taxes that relate to Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods for purposes of any obligation to indemnify for Taxes under Section 4.2(b) the parties agree to use the following conventions:
(1) Taxes in the form of interest, penalties, additions to tax or other additional amounts that are actually incurred, accrued, assessed or similarly charged on or after the Closing Date but that relate to Taxes that accrued on or before the Closing Date shall be treated as occurring prior to the Closing Date;
(2) Except for Taxes for which the Operating Partnership is responsible hereunder and for real estate taxes (apportioned pursuant to Section 1.5), for all Taxes that are payable with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax that is attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be allocated between the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the portion of the period beginning after the Closing Date using the following conventions:
(i) in the case of such Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, net or gross income, Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, any sale, receipt, use, transfer or assignments of property or other asset, or Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, any payment or accrual of any amounts (including, without limitation, dividends, interest, or wages), the amount allocated to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date shall be the amount of Tax that would be payable for such portion of the Straddle Period if such Person filed a separate Tax Return with respect to such Taxes or Taxes solely for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date using a “closing of the books” methodology for allocating items of such Tax Return; and
(ii) in the case of all other such Taxes, the amount allocated to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date shall equal to the amount of Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period. For purposes of clause (1), any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (including amortization and depreciation deductions and the effects of graduated rates) shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date based on the relative number of days in such portion of the Straddle Period as compared to the number of days in the entire Straddle Period.
Income Tax Allocations (a) Except as provided in this Section 9.4, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as such items are allocated for book purposes under Sections 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 and 13.4(b).
(b) In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to 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 Gross Asset Value at the time of its contribution to the Company. If the Gross Asset Value of any Company property is adjusted in accordance with clause (c) or (d) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, then subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such property for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value as provided in Code Section 704(c) and the related Treasury Regulations. For purposes of such allocations, the Company shall elect the remedial allocation method described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(d).
(c) All items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit allocated to the Members in accordance with the provisions hereof and basis allocations recognized by the Company for federal income tax purposes shall be determined without regard to any election under Section 754 of the Code which may be made by the Company.
(d) If any deductions for depreciation or cost recovery are recaptured as ordinary income upon the Transfer of Company properties, the ordinary income character of the gain from such Transfer shall be allocated among the Members in the same ratio as the deductions giving rise to such ordinary character were allocated.
Timing and Amount of Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss Net Income and Net Loss of the Partnership shall be determined and allocated with respect to each Partnership Year of the Partnership as of the end of each such year. Subject to the other provisions of this Article 6, an allocation to a Partner of a share of Net Income or Net Loss shall be treated as an allocation of the same share of each item of income, gain, loss or deduction that is taken into account in computing Net Income or Net Loss.
Capital Accounts Allocations There shall be established in respect of each Holder a separate capital account in the books and records of the Up-MACRO Holding Trust in respect of the Holder's Capital Contributions to the Up-MACRO Holding Trust (each, a "Capital Account"), to which the following provisions shall apply:
(a) The Capital Account of each Holder initially shall be equal to the cash contributed in exchange for its Up-MACRO Holding Shares (each, a "Capital Contribution") and, at the end of each day shall be:
(i) increased by (A) an amount equal to any amounts paid with respect to Up-MACRO Holding Shares issued as part of a Paired Issuance by such Holder during such day; and (B) such Holder's interest in the Net Profit (and items thereof) of the Up-MACRO Holding Trust during such day as allocated under Section 7.2(b); and
(ii) decreased by (A) any distributions made in cash by the Up-MACRO Holding Trust to such Holder on such day; (B) the fair market value of any property other than cash distributed by the Up-MACRO Holding Trust to such Holder on such day; and (C) such Holder's interest in the Net Loss (and items thereof) of the Up-MACRO Holding Trust for such day as allocated under Section 7.2(b).
(b) Except pursuant to the Regulatory Allocations set forth in Section 7.3, or as otherwise provided in this Trust Agreement, Net Profit and Net Loss (and items of each) of the Up-MACRO Holding Trust shall be provisionally allocated as of the end of each day among the Holders in a manner such that the Capital Account of each Holder immediately after giving effect to such allocation, is, as nearly as possible, equal (proportionately) to the amount equal to the distributions that would be made to such Holder during such fiscal year pursuant to Article 5 if (i) the Up-MACRO Holding Trust were dissolved and terminated; (ii) its affairs were wound up and each Trust Asset was sold for cash equal to its book value; (iii) all Up-MACRO Holding Trust liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the book value of the assets securing such liability); and (iv) the net assets of the Up-MACRO Holding Trust were distributed in accordance with Article 5 to the Holders immediately after giving effect to such allocation. The Depositor may, in its discretion, make such other assumptions (whether or not consistent with the above assumptions) as it deems necessary or appropriate in order to effectuate the intended economic arrangement of the Holders. Except as otherwise provided elsewhere in this Trust Agreement, if upon the dissolution and termination of the Up-MACRO Holding Trust pursuant to Section 14.1 and after all other allocations provided for in this Section 7.2 have been tentatively made as if this Section 7.2(b) were not in this Trust Agreement, a distribution to the Holders under Section 14.1 would be different from a distribution to the Holders under Article 5 then Net Profit (and items thereof) and Net Loss (and items thereof) for the fiscal year in which the Up-MACRO Holding Trust dissolves and terminates pursuant to Section 14.1 shall be allocated among the Holders in a manner such that the Capital Account of each Holder, immediately after giving effect to such allocation, is, as nearly as possible, equal (proportionately) to the amount of the distribution that would be made to such Holder during such last fiscal year pursuant to Article 5. The Depositor may, in its discretion, apply the principles of this Section 7.2(b) to any fiscal year preceding the fiscal year in which the Up-MACRO Holding Trust dissolves and terminates (including through application of Section 761(e) of the Code) if delaying application of the principles of this Section 7.2(b) would likely result in distributions under Section 14.1 that are materially different from distributions under Article 5 in the fiscal year in which the Up-MACRO Holding Trust dissolves and terminates.
(c) Before any distribution of property (other than cash) from the Up-MACRO Holding Trust to a Holder (including without limitation, any non-cash asset which shall be deemed distributed immediately prior to the dissolution and winding up of the Up-MACRO Holding Trust), the Capital Accounts of all Holders of the Up-MACRO Holding Trust shall be adjusted and, upon the occurrence of one or more of the other events described in Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) of the Regulations, may be adjusted to reflect the manner in which any unrealized income, gain, loss or deduction inherent in such property (that has not been previously reflected in the Holders' Capital Accounts) would be allocated among the Holders if there were a taxable disposition of such property by the Up-MACRO Holding Trust on the date of distribution, in accordance with Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) and (g) of the Regulations.
(d) In determining the amount of any liability for purposes of this Section 7.2, there shall be taken into account Section 752 of the Code and any other applicable provisions of the Code and any Regulations promulgated thereunder.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 7.2 regarding the maintenance of Capital Accounts shall be construed so as to comply with the provisions of the Code and any Regulations thereunder. The Depositor in its sole and absolute discretion and whose determination shall be binding on the Holders is hereby authorized to interpret and to modify the foregoing provisions to the extent necessary to comply with the Code and Regulations.
Allocation of Profits and Losses Distributions Profits/Losses. For financial accounting and tax purposes, the Company's net profits or net losses shall be determined on an annual basis and shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to each Member's relative capital interest in the Company as set forth in Schedule 2 as amended from time to time in accordance with U.S. Department of the Treasury Regulation 1.704-1.
Tax Allocations Each item of income, gain, loss or deduction recognized by the Company shall be allocated among the Members for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes in the same manner that each such item is allocated to the Member’s Capital Accounts pursuant to Section 3.2(d) or as otherwise provided herein, provided that the Board may adjust such allocations as long as such adjusted allocations have substantial economic effect or are in accordance with the interests of the Members in the Company, in each case within the meaning of the Code and the Treasury Regulations. Tax credits and tax credit recapture shall be allocated in accordance with the Members’ interests in the Company as provided in Treasury Regulations section 1.704-1(b)(4)(ii). Items of Company taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property (other than cash) contributed to the capital of the Company or revalued shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members, as determined by the Board in accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code, so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its fair market value at the time of contribution or revaluation, as the case may be. All of the Members agree that the Board is authorized to select the method or convention, or to treat an item as an extraordinary item, in relation to any variation of any Member’s interest in the Company described in section 1.706-4 of the Treasury Regulations in determining the Members’ distributive shares of Company items. All matters concerning allocations for U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. income tax purposes, including accounting procedures, not expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion. Each Class B Ordinary Share is intended to be treated as a profits interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and all of the Members agree to report consistently with, and to take any action requested by the Board to ensure, such treatment.
Adjustments to Capital Accounts At the end of each Fiscal Period, the Capital Accounts of the Partners shall be adjusted in the following manner:
(a) Subject to the provisions of subsections (c) and (d) and (f) of this Section 9, Net Profit of the Partnership for the Fiscal Year shall be credited as follows:
(i) Twenty percent (20%) of the Net Profit shall be reallocated to the General Partner for each Fiscal Year as a "Incentive Allocation".
(ii) The remaining Net Profit shall be allocated to the Partners in proportion to their Capital Accounts.
(b) Net Loss of the Partnership for the Fiscal Year shall be debited against the Capital Account of each Partner in proportion to and in accordance with the balance in the Capital Account of the Partner until the value of any Partners' Capital account becomes zero. Thereafter, any remaining Net Loss for the Fiscal Year shall be debited to Partners having positive balances in their Capital accounts in proportion to those balances, until the value of each Partner's Capital Account becomes zero. Thereafter, any remaining Net Loss for the Fiscal Year shall be debited to the General Partner in accordance with each General Partner's General Partner Percentage for the Fiscal Period.
(c) In the event that the Capital Account of one or more General Partner has a negative balance, one hundred percent (100%) of the Net Profit of the Partnership for the Fiscal Period shall be credited to those General Partners whose Capital Accounts have negative balances in accordance with their respective General Partner Percentages until no General Partner shall have a negative Capital Account balance.
(d) Anything in this Section 9 to the contrary notwithstanding, if any Net Losses are allocated to the account of any Limited Partner, each such Limited Partner shall be entitled to a "Recoupment Allocation" of subsequent Net Profits of the Partnership, in an amount in proportion to his Partnership Percentage, until such Net Loss shall have been eliminated. The amount of Net Profits allocated as a Recoupment Allocation shall not exceed, but shall reduce, the amount of Net Profits otherwise allocable to the General Partners as the Incentive Allocation pursuant to Section 9(a) (ii) hereof. If a Limited Partner who is entitled to a Recoupment Allocation shall withdraw any portion of his Capital Account, the amount of Recoupment Allocation to which he is entitled shall be reduced in proportion to the amount of capital withdrawn.
(e) The amount of any withdrawal made by the Partner pursuant to Section 21 or Section 22 of this Agreement shall be debited against the Capital Account of that Partner.
(f) Allocations of Net Profit or Net Loss for a Fiscal Period, if necessary, shall be made in accordance with each Partner's Partnership percentage, adjusted as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 9 at the end of the Fiscal Year, provided that the "Incentive Allocation" may not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Net Profit for the Fiscal Year.
Payment of Taxes and Claims; Tax Consolidation The Company shall pay, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, (a) all material taxes, assessments and other governmental charges imposed upon it or on any of its properties or assets or in respect of any of its franchises, business, income or property before any penalty or interest accrues thereon, and (b) all claims (including, without limitation, claims for labor, services, materials and supplies) for sums which have become due and payable and which by law have or may become a Lien (other than a Lien permitted by Section 7.03) upon any of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s property or assets, prior to the time when any penalty or fine shall be incurred with respect thereto; provided, however, that no such taxes, assessments and governmental charges referred to in clause (a) above or claims referred to in clause (b) above (and interest, penalties or fines relating thereto) need be paid if being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently instituted and conducted and if such reserve or other appropriate provision, if any, as shall be required in conformity with Agreement Accounting Principles shall have been made therefor.
