adjustment, allocation or distribution due to items set forth in Regulation Section l.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) that results in such Partner having an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, such Partner shall, as quickly as possible and to the extent required by Treasury Regulation §1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d), be allocated items of gross income in an amount sufficient to eliminate such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as quickly as possible.

5.12 Curative Allocations. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.2, allocations pursuant to Sections 5.9, 5.10 and 5.11 shall be taken into account in allocating other Profits or Losses among the Partners so that to the extent possible the net amount of such allocations of other Profits or Losses and the allocations pursuant to Section 5.9, 5.10 and 5.11 to each Partner shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Partner if the allocations pursuant to Sections 5.9, 5.10 and 5.11 had not occurred.

(e) The Partnership may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of the General Partner and/or the Special General Partner and such other Persons as the General Partner shall determine against any liability that may be asserted against or expenses that may be incurred by such Person in connection with the Partnership’s

activities, regardless of whether the Partnership would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.

“Calculation Period” means the period commencing on the Commencement Date and ending December 31, 2003.

“Cumulative Earnings” means the sum of the Earnings for each year in the Calculation Period with respect to any particular Option Holder up to, but not including the year in which a notice is given by the Special General Partner to the Partnership.

“Earnings” means, for any given year in the Calculation Period for which a calculation of Cumulative Earnings is being made, the net income of the Partnership for that year including amortization of intangible assets acquired under the Merry Maids Acquisition Agreement (which intangible assets include, but are not limited to, the trade name “Merry Maids”) but excluding any provision or allowance for federal or state income taxes. Intangible assets will be amortized over a 40-year period with the exception of the non-competition agreement between the Partnership and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, which will be amortized over a 20-year period. Interest on long-term debt of the Partnership and short-term debt incurred in the ordinary course of the business shall be included in the computation of Earnings but only to the extent that the principal of the long-term debt of the Partnership does not exceed $25 million. Earnings shall be calculated by the regular independent certified accountants for the Partnership and as

further provided in Section 13.5. The period from the Commencement Date to December 31, 1988 shall be treated as a half-year for purposes of this Article XIII; see “Years Involved” for the appropriate weighting for such half-year.

13.2 Grant of Option to Purchase. The Special General Partner hereby grants to the Partnership the right and option to purchase from the Special General Partner, from time to time and at any time during the Exercise Period, at the Option Price, some or all of the Units held by the Special General Partner.

13.4 Determination of Annual Earnings. As promptly as practicable after the close of each year within the Calculation Period, and in no event later than ninety days

after the close of such year, the regular certified public accounting firm for the Partnership shall determine the Earnings for that year in accordance with this Article XIII and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.

If not resolved within fifteen days of any such meeting, the Special General Partner may then engage the services of a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm as may be selected by the Special General Partner to examine the aforesaid calculation of Earnings by the Partnership’s accountant.

(b) All expenses of the accountants other than the Partnership’s accountants, including any third accountant selected as described above, incurred by the parties in accordance with the foregoing adjustment procedure shall be the sole obligation of the Special General Partner. All expenses of the Partnership’s accountant shall be the sole obligation of the Partnership. However, in the event that the ultimate resolution of the Earnings calculation contains an upward adjustment in excess of two percent (2%) of the computation delivered by the Partnership’s accountant, then all expenses of such

additional accountants shall become the sole obligation of the Partnership, with no effect on the Earnings calculation by virtue of such expense.

13.6 Determination of the Option Price. The Option Price for one Unit (or part thereof) sold pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall be determined by using the following formula:

				Percentage Interest
Option Price	=	Average Earnings	X 20 X	for each Unit

If an individual who is an employee of an Employing Entity is also a shareholder of the Special General Partner and if the employment of such individual terminates at any time during the period beginning on the Commencement Date and ending December 31, 1993 (respectively, the “Departing Employee” and the “Early Departure Period”), the Partnership shall thereupon have the right to purchase Units from the Special General Partner in the number which bears the same ratio to the total number of Units then owned by the Special General Partner as the number of shares of the Special General Partner owned by the Departing Employee bears to all of the then outstanding shares of the Special General Partner. The Units which may be purchased by the Partnership are hereinafter called the “Surrendered Units.” The purchase price for the Surrendered Units shall be determined under Section 13.9, Section 13.10 or Section 13.11, whichever is applicable.

13.9 Voluntary Termination of Employment. (a) If the Departing Employee voluntarily terminates his employment with an Employing Entity during the Early Departure Period, the price at which the Surrendered Units shall be purchased shall be equal to the lesser of —

(1) the Departing Employee’s original investment in his shares in the Special General Partner; plus

(2) an amount determined as follows: the difference between (i) the amount which would have been payable if the Surrendered Units had been the subject of an Option for which a notice of exercise had been given in the year 1994 and (ii) the amount set forth in clause (i) above, which difference is then multiplied by the applicable percentage from the table below:

Year in which the employment of the Departing Employees terminates	Applicable Percentage

1988	0	%
1989	16.66	%
1990	33.33	%
1991	50.00	%
1992	66.66	%
1993	83.33	%

(b) Payment of the amount determined under clause (1) of paragraph (a) above shall be paid by the Partnership to the Special General Partner not later than seven (7) days after the termination of employment of the Departing Employee. Payment of the amount determined under clause (2) of paragraph (a) above shall be paid to the Special General Partner not later than thirty (30) days after the General Partner has determined Earnings for the year 1993 as provided in Section 13.4 and subject to the procedure therein.

An employee may be involuntarily terminated as an employee of the Employing Entity under this Section 13.10 for good and sufficient cause only. When the

Employing Entity believes that such cause exists, the Employing Entity shall give the employee 45 days written notice. The employee shall have an opportunity to cure the deficiency or facts relating to the cause stated by the Company during the notice period. The Board of Directors of the General Partner shall be the final decisionmaker as to employee’s effort to cure.

13.11 Termination by Reason of Death During the Early Retirement Period. (a) If the employment of a Departing Employee terminates because of his death or incapacity during the period beginning with the Commencement Date and ending December 31, 1993, the provision of Section 13.10(a) and 13.3(b) shall apply, except that in such circumstances the Option may be exercised immediately in accordance with Section 13.10 by the Departing Employee’s personal representative.

13.12 Termination by Reason of Death After Early Departure Period. If an employee of an Employing Entity is also a shareholder of the Special General Partner and if such person ceases to be an employee of the Employing Entity at any time during the period January 1, 1994 and ending December 31, 1998 because of the death of such employee (the “Full Term Deceased Employee),” the Partnership shall have both the right and the duty to purchase Units from the Special General Partner in the number determined by the formula set forth in Section 13.8. The Option Price for such Units shall be determined under the formula set forth in Section 13.6. In applying that formula, the number and identify of years to be used for the Cumulative Earnings (which, in turn, will establish Average Earnings) shall be the number and identify of full years in which the Full Term Deceased Employee shall have been an employee of the Employing Entity and a shareholder of the Special General Partner.

13.13 Effect of Acquisition of Other Businesses on Earnings. (a) If the Partnership or any Affiliate of the General Partner (a “ServiceMaster Affiliate”) has the opportunity to acquire one or more businesses at any time in the future which are in addition to the acquired under the Merry Maids Acquisition Agreement and if any of

such businesses are in any way related to or engaged in any similar or competitive business to that of the Partnership as being conducted at that time (“Further Acquisitions”), the shareholders of the Special General Partner, by a majority vote, shall first be entitled in each case to determine whether or not such Further Acquisition shall be, regardless or whether it is to be acquired by the Partnership or acquired through a separate entity formed by any ServiceMaster Affiliate, of any effect on the calculation of Earnings. If such majority of the Special General Partner shareholders are in favor of including the Further Acquisition in the Earnings calculation, and if the Further Acquisition is in fact made, the earnings, debt service and all other items affecting income and cash flow shall be included in the computation of Earnings. If, on the other hand, such majority of the Special General Partner shareholders are not in favor of including the Further Acquisition in the computation of Earnings, then the making of the Further Acquisition shall not in any way affect the computation of Earnings.

13.15 Right to Purchase. Nothing in this Agreement restricting the Partnership’s ability to purchase assets shall be deemed to interfere with the ability of the Partnership to purchase Units pursuant to this Article 13. The funds for any purchase of Units by the Partnership provided under this Article 13 shall be contributed as a Capital Contribution by the General Partner, and in respect thereof, the General Partner shall receive such Units and corresponding Percentage Interests to its credit.

(a) the payment to creditors of the Partnership, including Partners, in order of priority provided by law; and the creation of a reserve of cash or other assets of the Partnership for contingent liabilities in an amount, if any, determined by the Liquidator to the appropriate for such purposes;

(b) to the Partners in proportion to the positive balances in their respective Capital Accounts; provided, however, that prior to such distribution, the Capital Accounts shall have been adjusted to reflect the allocations of Profits and Losses set forth in Article V hereof prior to such distribution; and thereafter

14.4 Distribution in Kind. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14.3 which require the liquidation of the assets of the Partnership, but subject to the order of priorities set forth therein, if upon dissolution of the Partnership the Liquidator determines that an immediate sale of part of all of the Partnership’s assets would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Partners, the Liquidator may, in its absolute discretion, defer for a reasonable time the liquidation of any assets except those necessary to satisfy liabilities of the Partnership (other than those to Partners) and/or may, in its absolute discretion, distribute to the Partners, in lieu of cash, as tenants in common and in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.3(b) undivided interests in such Partnership assets as the Liquidator deems not suitable for liquidation.

Any such distributions in kind shall be subject to such conditions relating to the disposition and management of such properties as the Liquidator deems reasonable and equitable and to any agreements governing the operating of such properties at such time. The fair market value of any property distributed in kind shall be determined in accordance with Section 5.5 hereof.

14.5 Cancellation of Certificate of Limited Partnership. Upon the completion of the distribution of Partnership property as provided in Sections 14.3 and 14.4, the Partnership shall be terminated, and the Liquidator (or the General Partner and the Limited Partner, if necessary) shall cause the cancellation of the Certificate of Limited Partnership and all qualifications of the Partnership as a foreign limited partnership in jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware and shall take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Partnership.

14.6 Reasonable Time for Winding up. A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the business and affairs of the Partnership and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 14.3 in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant up on such winding up.

14.7 Return of Capital. Upon dissolution of the Partnership, the General Partner shall contribute an amount equal to the deficit balance in its Capital Account in accordance with Section 5.6. Other than as provided in the preceding sentence, no general partner or limited partner of this Partnership shall be required to restore a deficit in its Capital Account or shall be personally liable for the return of the Capital Contributions of any Partner or any portion thereof.

14.8 Waiver of Partition. Each Partner hereby waives any right to partition of the Partnership property.
