Return of Capital Contributions No Partner shall be entitled to withdraw any part of its Capital Contribution or its Capital Account or to receive any distribution from the Partnership, except as specifically provided in this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided herein, there shall be no obligation to return to any Partner or withdrawn Partner any part of such Partner’s Capital Contribution for so long as the Partnership continues in existence.
Distributions of Cash Flow Cash flow for each taxable year of the Company shall be distributed to the Member at such times and in such amounts as the Member shall determine.
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.
Return of Capital Contribution From time to time the Partnership may have cash in excess of the amount required for the conduct of the affairs of the Partnership, and the General Partner may, with the Consent of the Special Limited Partner, determine that such cash should, in whole or in part, be returned to the Partners, pro rata, in reduction of their Capital Contribution. No such return shall be made unless all liabilities of the Partnership (except those to Partners on account of amounts credited to them pursuant to this Agreement) have been paid or there remain assets of the Partnership sufficient, in the sole discretion of the General Partner, to pay such liabilities.
Withdrawals of Capital No Partner may withdraw capital related to such Partner’s GP-Related Partner Interests from the Partnership except (i) for distributions of cash or other property pursuant to Section 5.8, (ii) as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or (iii) as determined by the General Partner.

Capital Contributions Distributions 17 TABLE OF CONTENTS (continued)
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).
Dividends or Distributions (a) Subject to the superior rights of the holders of shares of any other series of preferred stock of the Company or other class of capital stock of the Company ranking superior to the shares of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of shares of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board, out of the assets of the Company legally available therefor, (1) quarterly dividends payable in cash on the last day of each fiscal quarter in each year, or such other dates as the Board shall approve (each such date being referred to herein as a “Quarterly Dividend Payment Date”), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or a fraction of a share of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock, in the amount of $10.00 per whole share (rounded to the nearest cent) less the amount of all cash dividends declared on the Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock pursuant to the following clause (2) since the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock (the total of which shall not, in any event, be less than zero) and (2) dividends payable in cash on the payment date for each cash dividend declared on the shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) in an amount per whole share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the Formula Number (as hereinafter defined) then in effect times the cash dividends then to be paid on each share of Common Stock. In addition, if the Company shall pay any dividend or make any distribution on the Common Stock payable in assets, securities or other forms of noncash consideration (other than dividends or distributions solely in shares of Common Stock), then, in each such case, the Company shall simultaneously pay or make on each outstanding whole share of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock a dividend or distribution in like kind equal to the Formula Number then in effect times such dividend or distribution on each share of Common Stock. As used herein, the “Formula Number” shall be 1,000; provided, however, that, if at any time after March 18, 2016, the Company shall (i) declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock or make any distribution on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide (by a stock split or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock or (iii) combine (by a reverse stock split or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such event the Formula Number shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the Formula Number in effect immediately prior to such event by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that are outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to such event (and rounding the result to the nearest whole number); and provided further that, if at any time after March 18, 2016, the Company shall issue any shares of its capital stock in a merger, reclassification, or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then in each such event the Formula Number shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such merger, reclassification or change so that each share of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock continues to be the economic equivalent of a Formula Number of shares of Common Stock prior to such merger, reclassification or change. (b) The Company shall declare a cash dividend on the Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2(a)(2) immediately prior to or at the same time it declares a cash dividend on the Common Stock; provided, however, that, in the event no cash dividend shall have been declared on the Common Stock during the period between any Quarterly Dividend Payment Date and the next subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, during the period between the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock, a dividend of $10.00 per whole share on the Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall nevertheless accrue on such subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, as the case may be. The Board may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock entitled to receive a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which record date shall be the same as the record date for any corresponding dividend or distribution on the Common Stock. (c) Whether or not declared, dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative on outstanding shares of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock from and after the Quarterly Dividend Payment Date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, unless the date of issue of such shares is prior to the record date for the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case dividends on such shares shall begin to accrue and be cumulative from and after the date of issue of such shares, or unless the date of issue is a Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or is a date after the record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and before such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in either of which events such dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative from and after such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date. Accrued but unpaid dividends shall not bear interest. Dividends paid on the shares of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding. (d) So long as any shares of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock are outstanding, no dividends or other distributions shall be declared, paid or distributed, or set aside for payment or distribution, on the Common Stock unless, in each case, the dividend required by this Section 2 to be declared on the Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall have been declared and set aside. (e) The holders of shares of Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions except as herein provided.
