General Partner (a) The business, property and affairs of the Partnership shall be managed under the sole, absolute and exclusive direction of the General Partner, which may from time to time delegate authority to officers or to others to act on behalf of the Partnership.
BUSINESS OF THE PARTNERSHIP The purpose and nature of the business to be conducted by the Partnership is (i) to conduct any business that may be lawfully conducted by a limited partnership organized pursuant to the Act, provided, however, that such business shall be limited to and conducted in such a manner as to permit the General Partner at all times to qualify as a REIT, unless the General Partner otherwise ceases to qualify as a REIT, and in a manner such that the General Partner will not be subject to any taxes under Section 857 or 4981 of the Code, (ii) to enter into any partnership, joint venture, co-ownership or other similar arrangement to engage in any of the foregoing or the ownership of interests in any entity engaged in any of the foregoing and (iii) to do anything necessary or incidental to the foregoing. In connection with the foregoing, and without limiting the General Partner’s right in its sole and absolute discretion to qualify or cease qualifying as a REIT, the Partners acknowledge that the General Partner intends to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and upon such qualification the avoidance of income and excise taxes on the General Partner inures to the benefit of all the Partners and not solely to the General Partner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Limited Partners agree that the General Partner may terminate its status as a REIT under the Code at any time to the full extent permitted under the Charter. The General Partner on behalf of the Partnership shall also be empowered to do any and all acts and things necessary or prudent to ensure that the Partnership will not be classified as a “publicly traded partnership” for purposes of Section 7704 of the Code.
Partnership Name The name of the Partnership is “OZ Advisors II LP.” The name of the Partnership may be changed from time to time by the General Partner.
Other Business of Partners Any Partner may engage independently or with others in other business ventures wholly unrelated to the Partnership business of every nature and description, including, without limitation, the acquisition, development, construction, operation and management of real estate projects and developments of every type on their own behalf or on behalf of other partnerships, joint ventures, corporations or other business ventures formed by them or in which they may have an interest, including, without limitation, business ventures similar to, related to or in direct or indirect competition with the Apartment Housing. Neither the Partnership nor any Partner shall have any right by virtue of this Agreement or the partnership relationship created hereby in or to such other ventures or activities or to the income or proceeds derived therefrom. Conversely, no Person shall have any rights to Partnership assets, incomes or proceeds by virtue of such other ventures or activities of any Partner.
Partnership Funds Pending application or distribution, the funds of the Partnership shall be deposited in such bank account or accounts, or invested in such interest-bearing or non-interest bearing investment, including, without limitation, checking and savings accounts, certificates of deposit and time or demand deposits in commercial banks, U.S. government securities and securities guaranteed by U.S. government agencies as shall be designed by the General Partner. Such funds shall not be commingled with funds of any other Person. Withdrawals therefrom shall be made upon such signatures as the General Partner may designate.
Subsidiaries, Partnerships and Joint Ventures Each of the Loan Parties shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to own or create directly or indirectly any Subsidiaries other than (i) any Subsidiary which has joined this Agreement as Guarantor on the Closing Date; and (ii) any Domestic Subsidiary formed or acquired after the Closing Date which joins this Agreement as a Borrower or as a Guarantor, and, to the extent not resulting in material adverse tax consequences, any Foreign Subsidiary formed or acquired after the Closing Date which joins this Agreement as a Borrower or as a Guarantor, in each case by delivering to the Administrative Agent (A) a signed Borrower Joinder or Guarantor Joinder, as appropriate; (B) documents in the forms described in Section 6.1 [First Loans] modified as appropriate; (C) documents necessary to grant and perfect the Prior Security Interests to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in the equity interests of, and Collateral held by, such Subsidiary; and (D) such diligence materials in respect of such Subsidiary (including, without limitation, “know your customer”, liens, ERISA and labor matters) as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. Each of the Loan Parties shall not become or agree to become a party to a Joint Venture other than Permitted Investments and other investments permitted pursuant to Section 7.2.4 [Loans and Investments]. For purposes of clarity, any Subsidiary organized under the laws of Canada or any political subdivision thereof that is formed or acquired by the Canadian Borrower after the Closing Date shall join this Agreement as a Guarantor of the Canadian Liabilities in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.2.9.
Management of the Partnership (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the General Partner shall have full, complete and exclusive discretion to manage and control the business of the Partnership for the purposes herein stated, and shall make all decisions affecting the business and assets of the Partnership. Subject to the restrictions specifically contained in this Agreement, the powers of the General Partner shall include, without limitation, the authority to take the following actions on behalf of the Partnership:

Formation of the Partnership The Partnership was formed as a limited partnership pursuant to the provisions of the Act and the Original Agreement and continued upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Except as expressly provided herein to the contrary, the rights and obligations of the Partners and administration and termination of the Partnership shall be governed by the Act.
