(d) The bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of a General Partner; or

(e) Any event which causes there to be no General Partner;

provided, however, that in the event of the bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of a General Partner, the Partnership shall not be dissolved, (i) if at the time of such bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution there is at least one (1) other General Partner in which case such remaining General Partner shall carry on the affairs of the Partnership, or (ii) in the event there is no General Partner as a result of the bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of a General Partner, the Limited Partners holding all of the Partnership Interests vote to continue the Partnership pursuant to Section 10.2 hereof.

11.2 Winding Up.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.1, upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the Partnership shall continue solely for the purposes of winding up its affairs in an orderly manner, liquidating its assets, and satisfying the claims of its creditors and Partners. No Partner shall take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, the winding up of the Partnership’s business and affairs. The General Partners (or in the event there is no General Partner, any Partner elected by the Limited Partners holding a majority of the Percentage Interests) (the “Liquidating Partner”) shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and dissolution of the Partnership and shall take full account of the Partnership’s liabilities and assets and the assets shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof, and the proceeds therefrom, to the extent sufficient therefor, shall be applied and distributed in the following order:

(i) First, to the payment and discharge of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to creditors other than the Partners;

(ii) Second, to the payment and discharge of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to the Partners; and

(iii) The balance, if any, to the Partners in accordance with their Capital Accounts, after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all periods. If any Partner has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), such Partner shall have no obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Partnership with respect to such deficit, and such deficit shall not be considered a debt owed to the Partnership or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever.

(b) In the discretion of the Liquidating Partner, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Partners pursuant to this Section 11 may be:

- 14 -

(i) distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the Partners for the purpose of liquidating Partnership assets, collecting amounts owed to the Partnership, and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership or of the General Partner arising out of or in connection with the Partnership. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the Partners from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the Liquidating Partner, in the same proportions as the amount distributed to such trust by the Partnership would otherwise have been distributed to the Partners pursuant to this Agreement; or

(ii) withheld to provide a reasonable reserve for Partnership liabilities (contingent or otherwise) and to reflect the unrealized portion of any installment obligations owed to the Partnership, provided that such withheld amounts shall be distributed to the Partners as soon as practicable.

(c) In the discretion of the Liquidating Partner, the assets and liabilities of the Partnership may be distributed to and assumed by a trust established for the purpose of transferring such assets and liabilities in specie to the Partners pro rata in accordance with each Partner’s Percentage Interest.

(d) The Liquidating Partner shall not receive any compensation for any services performed pursuant to this Section 11.

11.3 Rights of Partners. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Partner shall look solely to the assets of the Partnership for the return of its Capital Contribution and shall have no rights or power to demand or receive property other than cash from the Partnership. No Limited Partner shall have priority over any other Limited Partner as to the return of its Capital Contributions, distributions or allocations.

11.4 Record of Liquidation. Each of the Partners shall be furnished with a statement prepared by the Partnership’s accountants which shall set forth the assets and liabilities of the Partnership as of the date of the occurrence of the Liquidating Event and the plans for compliance with Section 11.2.
