Member Capital Contributions (Check One)
Members Capital Contributions a) Single-Member Capital Contributions (Applies ONLY if Single-Member): The Member may make such capital contributions (each a “Capital Contribution”) in such amounts and at such times as the Member shall determine. The Member shall not be obligated to make any Capital Contributions. The Member may take distributions of the capital from time to time in accordance with the limitations imposed by the Statutes.
b) Multi-Member (Applies ONLY if Multi-Member): The Members have contributed the following capital amounts to the Company as set forth below and are not obligated to make any additional capital contributions:
Capital Contributions and Capital Accounts (a) The capital contributions of each party shall be all amounts paid by it pursuant to the Agreement. With respect to each oil and gas property and the related assets subject to the Agreement, each party shall be treated as having contributed to the tax partnership an amount of cash equal to such party's share of any Lease acquisition or other property costs and the tax partnership shall be treated as having purchased such property from the party to whom such amounts are paid.
(b) An individual capital account shall be maintained for each party in accordance with the following:
(i) The capital account of each party shall, except as otherwise provided herein, be (A) credited by the amount of cash and fair market value of any property contributed to the tax partnership (net of any liabilities assumed by the parties hereto or to which such property is subject at the time of contribution) as provided in subparagraph (a) of this paragraph 4, and (B) credited with the amount of any item of taxable income or gain and the amount of any item of income or gain exempt from tax allocated to such party.
(ii) The capital account of each party shall be debited by (A) the amount of any item of tax deduction or loss allocated to such party, (B) such party's allocable share of expenditures not deductible in computing taxable income and not properly chargeable as capital expenditures, including any non-deductible book amortizations of capitalized costs, and (C) the amount of cash or the fair market value of any property (net of any liabilities assumed by such party or to which such property is subject at the time of distribution) distributed to such party (after making the adjustment provided in subparagraph (b)(iii) in this paragraph 4).
(iii) Immediately prior to any distribution of property that is not pursuant to a liquidation of the tax partnership, the parties' capital accounts shall be adjusted by assuming that the distributed assets were sold for cash at their respective fair market values as of the date of distribution and crediting or debiting each party's capital account with its respective share of the hypothetical gains or losses resulting from such assumed sales determined in the same manner as gains or losses provided for under paragraphs 4(b)(iv) and 6 for actual sales of such properties.
(iv) The allocation of basis prescribed by Section 613A(c)(7)(D) of the Code and provided for in paragraph 6 hereinbelow and each party's depletion deductions shall not reduce such party's capital account, but such party's capital account shall be decreased by an amount equal to the product of (A) the depletion deductions that would otherwise be allocable to the tax partnership in the absence of Section 613A(c)(7)(D) of the Code (computed without regard to any limitations which theoretically could apply to any party) and (B) such party's percentage share of the adjusted basis of the property with respect to which such depletion is claimed (herein called "Simulated Depletion"). The tax partnership's basis in any oil or gas property, as adjusted from time to time for Simulated Depletion, is herein called "Simulated Basis." No party's capital account shall be decreased, however, by Simulated Depletion deductions attributable to any depletable property to the extent such deductions exceed such party's remaining Simulated Basis in such property. Upon the sale or other disposition of an interest in a depletable property, each party's capital account shall be credited with the gain ("Simulated Gain") or debited with the loss ("Simulated Loss") determined by subtracting from its allocable share of the amount realized on such sale or disposition its Simulated Basis, as adjusted by Simulated Depletion.
(v) Any adjustments of basis of property provided for under Sections 734 and 743 of the Code and comparable provisions of state law (resulting from an election under Section 754 of the Code or comparable provisions of state law) shall not affect the capital accounts of the parties, and the parties' capital accounts shall be debited or credited as if no such election had been made unless otherwise required by applicable Treasury Regulations.
(vi) Capital accounts shall be adjusted, in a manner consistent with subparagraph (b) of this paragraph 4, to reflect any adjustments in items of income, gain, loss or deduction that result from amended returns filed by the tax partnership or pursuant to an agreement with the Internal Revenue Service or a final court decision.
(vii) In the case of property contributed to the tax partnership by a party, the parties' capital accounts shall be debited or credited for items of depreciation, Simulated Depletion, amortization and gain or loss with respect to such property computed in the same manner as such items would be computed if the adjusted tax basis of such property were equal to its fair market value on the date of its contribution to the tax partnership, in lieu of the capital account adjustments provided above for such items, all in accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and Treasury Regulation 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g).
Limitations on Return of Capital Contributions Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Article 5, no Partner shall have the right to receive and the General Partner shall not have the right to make, a distribution that includes a return of all or part of a Partner’s Capital Contributions, unless after giving effect to the return of a Capital Contribution, the sum of all Partnership liabilities, other than the liabilities to a Partner for the return of his Capital Contribution, does not exceed the fair market value of the Partnership’s assets.
Additional Capital Contributions No Member shall be required to make additional capital contributions. A Member may make additional capital contributions to the Company.
Investment of Contributions At the direction of the Depositor (or the direction of the beneficiary upon the Depositor's death), the Custodian shall invest all contributions to the account and earnings thereon in investments acceptable to the Custodian, which may include marketable securities traded on a recognized exchange or "over the counter" (excluding any securities issued by the Custodian), covered call options, certificates of deposit, and other investments to which the Custodian consents, in such amounts as are specifically selected and specified by the Depositor in orders to the Custodian in such form as may be acceptable to the Custodian, without any duty to diversify and without regard to whether such property is authorized by the laws of any jurisdiction as a trust investment. The Custodian shall be responsible for the execution of such orders and for maintaining adequate records thereof. However, if any such orders are not received as required, or, if received, are unclear in the opinion of the Custodian, all or a portion of the contribution may be held uninvested without liability for loss of income or appreciation, and without liability for interest pending receipt of such orders or clarification, or the contribution may be returned. The Custodian may, but need not, establish programs under which cash deposits in excess of a minimum set by it will be periodically and automatically invested in interest-bearing investment funds. The Custodian shall have no duty other than to follow the written investment directions of the Depositor, and shall be under no duty to question said instructions and shall not be liable for any investment losses sustained by the Depositor.
