take account of the variation between the basis of such property and its fair

subparagraph 7(c) to the extent such provisions shall be applicable.
(i) Nonrecourse Deductions of the Partnership for any Fiscal Year
shall be specially allocated to the Partners in accordance with the Percentage
Interests of the respective Partners. Partner Nonrecourse Deductions of the
Partnership for any Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated to the Partner who

The provisions of this subparagraph 7(c)(i) are intended to satisfy the
requirements of Regulations sections 1.704-2(e)(2) and 1.704-2(i)(1) and shall
be interpreted in accordance therewith for all purposes under this Agreement.

Partnership during any Fiscal Year, each Partner shall be specially allocated
items of Partnership income and gain for such year equal to that Partner's share
of the net decrease in Minimum Gain, within the meaning of Regulations section
1.704-2(g)(2). The provisions of this subparagraph 7(c)(ii) are intended to
4
comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement of Regulations section

determined in accordance with Regulations section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be
specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such Fiscal Year
(and, if necessary, for succeeding Fiscal Years) equal to such Partner's share

this subparagraph 7(c)(iii) are intended to comply with the Partner Nonrecourse
Debt Minimum Gain chargeback requirement of Regulations section 1.704-2(i)(4)

Agreement.
(iv) If the allocation of net loss (or items thereof) to any Partner
as provided in subparagraph 7(a) hereof (other than Nonrecourse Deductions or
Partner Nonrecourse Deductions) would either cause such Partner to have a
deficit balance in such Partner's Capital Account or increase the deficit
balance of said Partner's Capital Account, there shall be allocated to such
Partner only that amount of net loss (or items thereof) as will not cause such
Partner to have a deficit balance in such Partner's Capital Account or increase
the deficit balance of said Partner's Capital Account. The net loss (or items
thereof) that would, absent the application of the preceding sentence, otherwise
be allocated to a Partner shall be allocated (i) first, to Partners whose
Capital Accounts have positive credit balances, in proportion to such positive
credit balances; and (ii) second, to the Partners in accordance with their
"interests in the Partnership", as determined pursuant to section 704(b) of the
Code and the Regulations promulgated thereunder.
(v) If any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustment, allocation
or distribution described in clauses (4), (5) and (6) of Regulations section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) which creates or increases a deficit balance in such
Partner's Capital Account, such Partner shall be allocated items of Partnership
income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Partnership
income, including gross income, and gain for such Fiscal Year) in an amount and
manner sufficient to eliminate, as quickly as possible, to the extent required
by the relevant Regulations, the deficit balance of such Partner's Capital
Account created or increased as a result of the unexpected allocation. The
provisions of this subparagraph 7(c)(v) are intended to comply with the
"qualified income offset" requirement of Regulations section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(3) and shall be interpreted in accordance therewith for all
purposes under this Agreement.

the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or in the event of any increase or
decrease in the interest of any Partner, whether arising out of the entry of a
new Partner, the liquidation (partial or whole) of any Partner's interest, or
otherwise, the share of the profits and losses of the respective Partners, and
each item of income and expense related thereto, shall be determined by the
"pro-rata method" described in Regulations section 1.706-1(c) (2)(ii), and all
such items for the entire Fiscal Year shall be allocated between the disposing
and transferee Partner according to the portion of the Fiscal Year that the
interest in the Partnership was held by each.
