Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, no Preferred Distribution shall be required if such distribution would, as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors, cause a default under any agreement or covenant between a bank or other lending institution and any one of the Company or the Operating Companies (any such limitation that precludes payment of a Preferred Distribution being referred to as the "Limitation"). In the event any Preferred Distribution, or portion thereof, is not made with respect to a calendar quarter, such Preferred Distribution, or portion thereof, (the "Accrued Preferred Distribution"), shall accumulate and be payable at such time as the Limitation no longer prevents payment.

Accordingly, notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, (i) the Preferred Distribution Rate multiplied by Distributions shall be applied to reduce each Class A Preferred Members' positive Preferred Capital Account, which shall result in a net reduction (taking into account the income allocation under Section 4.6(a)(ii) hereof) of such Preferred Capital Account equal to the amount of the excess distribution; and (ii) the Preference Accrual (the “Quarterly a Member shall not receive payment of any part of any Preferred Distribution Amount”); provided, however, that if the Effective Date is a day other than the first day of a Fiscal Quarter, then the first payment made hereunder shall be prorated accordingly. The Partnership shall pay such Distributions on the Preferred Units in cash, unless prohibited by the Senior Debt Agreements or any Replacement Credit Agreement. If any Distribution (or portion thereof) contemplated by this Section 4.1(b) is not paid in cash in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then such Distribution (or portion thereof) shall accrue and shall be added to the Unpaid Amounts and thereupon become part of the Preference Accrual with respect to extent that such Preferred Unit. In furtherance of the foregoing, all additions Distribution would cause such Member to the Preference Accrual resulting from such Distribution being less than the Quarterly Distribution Amount shall be deemed made automatically and without any further action by the Partnership, the General Partner, or any other Person and therefore shall become part of the Preference Accrual. At least two (2) Business Days prior to any applicable Preferred Payment Date, the Partnership shall notify the Preferred Partners in writing as to whether the Partnership has elected to pay the Distribution contemplated by this Section 4.1(b) in respect of the applicable Fiscal Quarter in cash on such Preferred Payment Date or has elected instead to defer payment of such Distribution and have the accrued but unpaid amount of such Distribution added to the Unpaid Amounts. In addition to the foregoing, the Partnership may make cash Distributions with respect to any Unpaid Amounts on a date other than a Preferred Payment Date, as determined by the General Partneran Adjusted Capital Account Deficit.
