the Partnership. If a Partner guarantees a loan made to the Partnership and is

of any Partner.
ARTICLE IV

4.2 PERSONS ENTITLED TO DISTRIBUTIONS
All distributions of Available Cash to Partners for a fiscal quarter

ARTICLE V
ALLOCATIONS
5.1 PROFITS
Profits for any Taxable Year shall be allocated:
(a) first to those Partners to which Losses have previously been allocated
pursuant to Section 5.2(d) hereof so as to bring each such Partner's Capital
Account to zero, pro rata in accordance with the sum of each such Partner's
Losses; and
(b) second, any remaining Profits shall be allocated among the Partners in
proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.
12
5.2 LOSSES
Losses for any Taxable Year shall be allocated:
(a) first, to the Partners to which Profits have previously been allocated
pursuant to Section 5.1(b) to the extent of such Profits;
(b) second, among the Partners in proportion to their respective
Percentage Interests provided however that no Partner shall be allocated any
loss pursuant to this Section 5.2(b) which would result in a negative Capital
Account balance for such Partner.
(c) third, to Partners in proportion to their positive Capital Account
balances until such Capital Account balances have been reduced to zero; and
(d) fourth, any remaining Losses shall be allocated to the General
Partner.
5.3 REGULATORY ALLOCATIONS
The following allocations shall be made in the following order:
(a) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to
the Partners in accordance with their Percentage Interests.
(b) Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Partner Nonrecourse Deductions
attributable to Partner Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated to the Partners
bearing the Economic Risk of Loss for such Partner Nonrecourse Debt as
determined under Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(4). If more than one Partner
bears the Economic Risk of Loss for such Member Nonrecourse Debt, the Partner
Nonrecourse Deductions attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt shall be
allocated among the Partners according to the ratio in which they bear the
Economic Risk of Loss. This Section 5.3(b) is intended to comply with the
provisions of Regulation Section 1.704-2(i) and shall be interpreted
consistently therewith.
(c) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to
the contrary, if there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain for a Taxable Year (or
if there was a net decrease in Minimum Gain for a prior Taxable Year and the
Partnership did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain during prior
years to allocate among the Partners under this Section 5.3(c)), items of income
and gain shall be allocated to each Partner in an amount equal to such Partner's
share of the net decrease in such Minimum Gain (as determined pursuant to
Regulation Section 1.704-2(g)(2)). This Section 5.3(c) is intended to constitute
a minimum gain chargeback under Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be
interpreted consistently therewith.
(d) Member Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any provision hereof
to the contrary except Section 5.3(c) (dealing with Minimum Gain), if there is a
net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain for a Taxable Year (or if
there was a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain for a prior
Taxable Year and the Company did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain
during prior years to allocate among the Partners under this Section 5.3(d)),
items of income and gain shall be allocated to each Partner in an amount equal
to such Partner's share of the net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum
13
Gain (as determined pursuant to Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4)). This Section
5.3(d) is intended to constitute a partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain
chargeback under Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted
consistently therewith.
(e) Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Partner has an Adjusted
Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Taxable Year, such Partner shall be
specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in the amount of such
deficit balance as quickly as possible; provided, that, an allocation pursuant
to this Section 5.3(e) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Partner
would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit balance after all other
allocations provided for in this Article V have been made.
(f) Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Partner unexpectedly
receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Regulation
Sections 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5) or
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be specially
allocated to such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to
the extent required by the Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of
such Partner as quickly as possible, provided, that, an allocation pursuant to
this Section 5.3(f) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Partner
would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations
provided for in this Article V have been made.
(g) Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Sections 5.3(a),
(b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) hereof (the "Regulatory Allocations") are intended to
comply with certain requirements of the Regulations. It is the intent of the
Partners that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be
offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of
other items of Partnership income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this
Section 5.3(g). Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article V
(other than the Regulatory Allocations), the General Partner shall make such
offsetting special allocations of income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever
mariner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are
made, each Partner's Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal
to the Capital Account balance such Partner would have had if the Regulatory
Allocations were not part of this Agreement and all such items were allocated
pursuant to Sections 5.1 and 5.2 without regard to the Regulatory Allocations.
5.4 TAX ALLOCATIONS: CODE SECTION 704(C)
(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, for federal income tax purposes,
(i) each item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated among the
Partners in the same manner as its correlative item of "book" income, gain, loss
or deduction is allocated pursuant to Sections 5.1 and 5.2, and (ii) each tax
credit shall be allocated to the Partners in the same manner as the receipt or
expenditure giving rise to such credit is allocated pursuant to Section 5.1 or
5.2.
(b) In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder,
income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any Property contributed to the
capital of the Partnership shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among
the Partners so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis
of such Property to the Partnership for federal income tax purposes and its
initial Gross Asset Value (computed in accordance with the definition herein of
"Gross Asset Value"). The Partnership shall use the remedial method of
allocations specified in
14
Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-3(d), or successor regulations, unless otherwise
required by law, with respect to the initial contribution property set forth on
Schedule I.
(c) In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership asset is
adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (b) of the definition herein of "Gross Asset
Value", subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect
to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of
such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same
manner as under Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder.
(d) Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be
made by the General Partner in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose
and intention of this Agreement; provided, that the Partnership, in the
discretion of the General Partner, may make, or not make, "curative" or
"remedial" allocations (within the meaning of the Regulations under Code Section
704(c)) including, but not limited to, "curative" allocations which offset the
effect of the "ceiling rule" for a prior Taxable Year (within the meaning of
Regulation Section 1.704-3(c)(3)(ii)) and "curative" allocations from
disposition of contributed property (within the meaning of Regulation Section
1.704-3(c)(3)(iii)(B)). Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.4 are solely for
purposes of federal, state, and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way
be taken into account in computing, any Partner's Capital Account or share of
Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this
Agreement.
5.5 CHANGE IN PARTNERSHIP PERCENTAGE
In the event that the Partners' Partnership Percentages change during a
Taxable Year, Profits and Losses shall be allocated taking into account the
Partners' varying Percentage Interests for such Taxable Year, determined on a
daily, monthly or other basis as determined by the General Partner, using any
permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Regulations thereunder.
5.6 WITHHOLDING
Each Partner hereby authorizes the Partnership to withhold from income or
distributions allocable to such Partner and to pay over any taxes payable by the
Partnership or any of its Affiliates as a result of such Partner's participation
in the Partnership; if and to the extent that the Partnership shall be required
to withhold any such taxes, such Partner shall be deemed for all purposes of
this Agreement to have received a distribution from the Partnership as of the
time such withholding is required to be paid, which distribution shall be deemed
to be a distribution to such Partner to the extent that the Partner is then
entitled to receive a distribution. To the extent that the aggregate of such
distributions in respect of a Partner for any period exceeds the distributions
to which such Partner is entitled for such period, the amount of such excess
shall be considered a demand loan from the Partnership to such Partner, with
interest at the rate of interest per annum that Citibank, N.A., or any successor
entity thereto, announces from time to time as its prime lending rate, which
interest shall be treated as an item of Partnership income, until discharged by
such Partner by repayment, which may be made in the sole discretion of the
General Partner out of distributions to which such Partner would otherwise be
subsequently entitled. The withholdings referred to in this Section 5.6 shall be
made at the maximum applicable statutory rate under applicable tax law unless
the General Partner shall have received
15
an opinion of counsel or other evidence, satisfactory to the General Partner, to
the effect that a lower rate is applicable, or that no withholding is
applicable.
ARTICLE VI
MANAGEMENT
6.1 DUTIES AND POWERS OF THE GENERAL PARTNER
(a) The business and affairs of the Partnership shall be managed by the
General Partner. Except for situations in which the approval of the Limited
Partners is expressly required by this Agreement or by nonwaivable provisions of
applicable law, the General Partner shall have full and complete authority,
power and discretion to manage and control the business, affairs and property of
the Partnership, to make all decisions regarding those matters and to perform
any and all other acts or activities customary or incident to the management of
the Partnership's business. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the General Partner has full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform
such contracts, agreements and other undertakings on behalf of the Partnership,
without the consent or approval of any other Partner, and to engage in all
activities and transactions, as it may deem necessary or advisable for, or as
may be incidental to, the conduct of the business and affairs of the
Partnership.
(b) Each Limited Partner agrees to cooperate with the General Partner and
to execute and deliver such documents, agreements and instruments, and do all
such further acts, as deemed necessary or advisable by the General Partner to
give effect to the exercise of the General Partner's powers under this Section
6.1. Without limiting the foregoing, each Limited Partner hereby irrevocably
appoints the General Partner as its proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power
of substitution and resubstitution) to vote or act by written consent with
respect to its Partnership Interest as a Limited Partner as determined by the
General Partner on all matters requiring the vote, approval or consent of the
Limited Partners. The Partners acknowledge that such proxy is coupled with an
interest and is irrevocable.
(c) The General Partner is the tax matters partner (the "Tax Matters
Partner") for purposes of Section 6231 of the Code and analogous provisions of
state law. The Tax Matters Partner has the exclusive authority and discretion to
make any elections required or permitted to be made by the Partnership under any
provisions of the Code or any other applicable laws; provided, however, that no
election shall be made by or on behalf of the Partnership to be excluded from
application of Subchapter K Chapter I of Subtitle A of the Code or from any
similar provisions of any state tax laws or to be treated as a corporation for
federal tax purposes. The Tax Matters Partner shall use its reasonable best
efforts to keep each Partner informed of any administrative and judicial
proceedings for the adjustment at the Partnership level of any item required to
be taken into account by a Partner for income tax purposes or any extension of
the period of limitations for making assessments of any tax against a Partner
with respect to any Partnership item, or of any agreement with the Internal
Revenue Service that would result in any material change either in Profits or
Losses as previously reported.
16
6.2 NO LIABILITY TO LIMITED PARTNERS
Except in case of gross negligence or willful malfeasance of the person
(the General Partner or any of the Members, managers, directors, officers,
agents or employees of the General Partner) who is sought to be held liable,
neither the General Partner nor the Members, managers, directors, officers,
agents or employees of the General Partner will be liable to any Limited Partner
or the Partnership (i) for any action taken with respect to the Partnership
which is not in violation of the provisions of this Agreement, or (ii) for any
action taken by any Member, manager, director, officer, agent or employee of the
General Partner.
6.3 INDEMNIFICATION OF GENERAL PARTNER
The Partnership shall indemnify the General Partner, the Members,
managers, directors, officers, agents and employees of the General Partner
against any losses, liabilities, damages and expenses to which any of such
persons may become subject, including attorneys' fees, judgments and amounts
paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by them, and advance all
expenses to them, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding to which any of them was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party by reason of the direct or indirect association by
them with the Partnership to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
6.4 RIGHTS OF LIMITED PARTNERS
The Limited Partners will not be personally liable for any obligations of
the Partnership nor will they have any obligation to make contributions to the
Partnership in excess of their respective Capital Contributions required under
Section 3.1 or have any liability for the repayment or discharge of the debts
and obligations of the Partnership except to the extent provided herein or as
required by law. The Limited Partners shall take no part in the management,
control or operation of the Partnership's business and shall have no power to
bind the Partnership and no right or authority to act for the Partnership or to
vote on matters other than the matters set forth in this Agreement or as
required by applicable law.
ARTICLE VII
TRANSFERS OF PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS
7.1 TRANSFER OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS
(a) A Limited Partner may Transfer such Partner's Partnership Interest
only in its entirety. A Limited Partner may transfer all of such Partner's
Partnership Interest (i) to a Permitted Transferee pursuant to Section 7.2, or
(ii) pursuant to the terms of Section 7.7; provided, however, any such Transfer
under (i) or (ii) above shall comply with the terms of Section 7.1(b). Other
than a Transfer permitted pursuant to clause (a) or clause (c) of the definition
of Permitted Transfer, the Limited Partners who are members of the WPP Group may
only transfer the entirety of their Partnership Interests collectively as a
group. Any purported Transfer of a Partnership Interest in violation of the
terms of this Agreement shall be null and void and of no force and effect.
Except upon a Transfer of all of a Limited Partner's Partnership
17
Interest in accordance with this Section 7.1, no Limited Partner shall have the
right to withdraw as a Partner of the Partnership.
(b) As a condition to a Transfer by a Limited Partner of all of such
Partner's Partnership Interest to a transferee as permitted under Section
7.l(a)(i) or (ii) (a "PARTNERSHIP TRANSFER"), such Partner, or such Partner's
Affiliate holding a Membership Interest, as applicable, shall simultaneously
Transfer (the "MEMBERSHIP TRANSFER") to such transferee an amount of such
Partner's or such Partner's Affiliate's Membership Interest equal to: (i) such
Partner's or such Partner's Affiliate's Membership Interest, multiplied by (ii)
a percentage equal to (1) the portion of such Partner's Partnership Interest to
be Transferred to such transferee, divided by (2) such Partner's Partnership
Interest immediately before such Transfer. If for any reason the Membership
Transfer does not occur simultaneously with the Partnership Transfer, then the
Partnership Transfer shall be null and void and of no force and effect.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Limited
Partner may pledge, mortgage or otherwise subject its Limited Partnership
Interest to any Encumbrance, provided, however, that any Limited Partner may
pledge, mortgage, assign or grant a security interest in its right to receive
distributions from or with respect to its Limited Partnership Interest to any
Person.
7.2 PERMITTED TRANSFEREES
(a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.7, each Limited Partner
shall, subject to Section 7.1(b), have the right to Transfer (but not to
substitute the transferee as a substitute Partner in such Partner's place,
except in accordance with Section 7.3), by a written instrument, all of a
Limited Partner's Partnership Interest to a Permitted Transferee.
Notwithstanding the previous sentence, if the Permitted Transferee is such
because it was an Affiliate of the transferring Limited Partner at the time of
such Transfer or the Transfer was a Permitted Transfer under clause (a) of the
definition herein of "Permitted Transfer" and, at any time after such Transfer,
such Permitted Transferee ceases to be an Affiliate of such Limited Partner or
such Transfer or such Permitted Transferee ceases to qualify under such clause
(a) (a "NON-QUALIFYING TRANSFEREE"), such Transfer shall be deemed to not be a
Permitted Transfer and shall be subject to Section 7.7. Pursuant to Section 7.7,
such transferring Limited Partner or such transferring Limited Partner's legal
representative shall deliver the First Refusal Notice promptly after the time
when such transferee ceases to be an Affiliate of such transferring Limited
Partner or such Transfer or such Permitted Transferee ceases to qualify under
clause (a) of the definition herein of "Permitted Transfer", and such
transferring Limited Partner shall otherwise comply with the terms of Section
7.7 with respect to such Transfer; provided, that the purchase price for such
Transfer for purposes of Section 7.7 shall be an amount agreed upon by such
transferring Limited Partner and the General Partner or, if such Limited Partner
and the General Partner cannot agree on a price within five Business Days after
delivery of the First Refusal Notice, such price shall be the fair market value
of the Partnership Interest transferred pursuant to the Transfer as of the date
the transferee ceased to be an Affiliate of such transferring Limited Partner or
such Transfer or such Permitted Transferee ceases to qualify under clause (a) of
the definition herein of "Permitted Transfer" (such date, the "NON-QUALIFYING
DATE"), as determined at the Partnership's expense by a nationally recognized
investment banking firm mutually selected by such transferring Limited Partner
and the General Partner. If such transferring Limited Partner
18
and the General Partner are unable, within ten days after the expiration of such
five Business Day period, to mutually agree upon an investment banking firm,
then each of such transferring Limited Partner and the General Partner shall
choose a nationally recognized investment banking firm and the two investment
banking firms so chosen shall choose a third nationally recognized investment
banking firm which shall determine the fair market value of the Partnership
Interest transferred pursuant to such Transfer at the Partnership's expense. The
determination of fair market value shall be based on the value that a willing
buyer with knowledge of all relevant facts would pay a willing seller for all
the outstanding equity securities of the Partnership in connection with an
auction for the Partnership as a going concern and shall not take into account
any acquisitions made by the Partnership or its Affiliates or any other events
subsequent to the Non-Qualifying Date and shall not be subject to any discount
for a sale of a minority interest. If such transferring Limited Partner fails to
comply with all the terms of Section 7.7, such Transfer shall be null and void
and of no force and effect. No Non-Qualifying Transferee shall be entitled to
receive any distributions from the Partnership on or after the Non-Qualifying
Date and any distributions made in respect of the Partnership Interests on or
after the Non-Qualifying Date and held by such Non-Qualifying Transferee shall
be paid to the Limited Partner who transferred such Partnership Interests or
otherwise to the rightful owner thereof as reasonably, determined by the General
Partner.
(b) Unless and until admitted as a substitute Limited Partner pursuant to
Section 7.3, a transferee of a Limited Partner's Partnership Interest, in whole
or in part, shall be an assignee with respect to such Transferred Partnership
Interest and shall not be entitled to become, or to exercise the rights of, a
Limited Partner, including the right to vote, the right to require any
information or accounting of the Partnership's business, or the right to inspect
the Partnership's books and records. Such transferee shall only be entitled to
receive, to the extent of the Partnership Interest Transferred to such
transferee, the share of distributions and profits, including distributions
representing the return of Capital Contributions, to which the transferor would
otherwise be entitled with respect to the Transferred Partnership Interest.
Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1(b), the transferor shall have the right
to vote such Transferred Partnership Interest until the transferee is admitted
to the Partnership as a substitute Limited Partner with respect to the
Transferred Partnership Interest.
7.3 SUBSTITUTE LIMITED PARTNERS
No transferee of all or part of a Limited Partner's Partnership Interest
shall become a substitute Limited Partner in place of the transferor unless and
until:
(a) such Transfer is in compliance with the terms of Section 7.1;
(b) the transferee has executed an instrument in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the General Partner accepting and adopting, and
agreeing to be bound by, the terms and provisions of the Certificate and this
Agreement; and
(c) the transferee has executed an instrument in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the General Partner whereby it agrees to become a
party to the Omnibus Agreement and to be bound by the noncompetition provisions
of Article II of the Omnibus Agreement.
19
(d) the transferee has caused to be paid all reasonable expenses of the
Partnership in connection with the admission of the transferee as a substitute
Limited Partner.
Upon satisfaction of all the foregoing conditions with respect to a
particular transferee, the General Partner shall cause the books and records of
the Partnership to reflect the admission of the transferee as a substitute
Limited Partner to the extent of the Transferred Partnership Interest held by
such transferee.
7.4 EFFECT OF ADMISSION AS A SUBSTITUTE LIMITED PARTNER
A transferee who has become a substitute Limited Partner has to the extent
of the Transferred Partnership Interest all the rights powers and benefits of
and is subject to the obligations, restrictions and liabilities of a Partner
under the Certificate this Agreement and the Act Upon admission of a transferee
as a substitute Limited Partner the transferor of the Partnership Interest so
held by the substitute Limited Partner shall cease to be a Partner of the
Partnership to the extent of such Transferred Partnership Interest.
7.5 CONSENT
Each Partner hereby agrees that upon satisfaction of the terms and
conditions of this Article VII with respect to any proposed Transfer the
transferee may be admitted as a Partner without any further action by a Partner
hereunder.
7.6 ADDITIONAL LIMITED PARTNERS
Subject to Section 3.2, any person acceptable to the General Partner may
become an additional Limited Partner of the Partnership for such consideration
as the General Partner shall determine, provided that such additional Limited
Partner complies with all the requirements of a transferee under Section 7.3
(b), (c) and (d).
7.7 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
The Limited Partners shall have the following right of first refusal:
(a) If at any time any of the Limited Partners (a "SELLING PARTNER") has
received and wishes to accept a bona fide offer (the "OFFER") for cash from a
third party (the "OFFEROR") for all of such Selling Partner's Partnership
Interest (and a proportionate amount of such Selling Partner's (or it's
Affiliate's) Membership Interest in accordance with Section 7.1(b)) such Selling
Partner shall give Notice thereof (the "FIRST REFUSAL NOTICE") to each of the
other Partners and the Partnership. The First Refusal Notice shall state the
portion of the Selling Partner's Partnership Interest and the Selling Partner's
(or its Affiliate's) Membership Interest that the Selling Partner and its
Affiliate, if applicable, wish to sell (the "OPTIONED INTEREST"), the price and
all other material terms of the Offer, the name of the Offeror, and
certification from the Selling Partner affirming that the Offer is bona fide and
that the description thereof is true and correct and that the Offeror has stated
that it will purchase the Optioned Interest if the rights of first refusal
herein described are not exercised.
20
(b) Each of the Limited Partners other than the Selling Partner (the
"NON-SELLING PARTNERS") shall have the right exercisable by Notice (an
"ACCEPTANCE NOTICE") given to the Selling Partner and the Partnership within 20
days after receipt of the First Refusal Notice, to agree that it will purchase
up to 100% of the Optioned Interest on the terms set forth in the First Refusal
Notice; provided, however, if the Non-Selling Partners in the aggregate desire
to purchase more than 100% of the Optioned Interest, each such Non-Selling
Partner's right to purchase the Optioned Interest shall be reduced (pro rata
based on the percentage of the Optioned Interest for which such Non-Selling
Partner has exercised its right to purchase hereunder compared to all other
Non-Selling Partners, but not below such Non-Selling Partner's Partnership
Interest as a percentage of the aggregate Partnership Interests of all
Non-Selling Partners who have exercised their right to purchase) so that such
Non-Selling Partners purchase no more than 100% of the Optioned Interest. If a
Non-Selling Partner does not submit an Acceptance Notice within the 20 day
period set forth in this Section 7.7(b), such Non-Selling Partner shall be
deemed to have rejected the offer to purchase any portion of the Optioned
Interest.
(c) If the Non-Selling Partners do not in the aggregate exercise the right
to purchase all of the Optioned Interest by the expiration of the 20 day period
set forth in Section 7.7(b), then any Acceptance Notice shall be void and of no
effect, and the Selling Partner shall be entitled to complete the proposed sale
at any time in the 30 day period commencing on the date of the First Refusal
Notice, but only upon the terms set forth in the First Refusal Notice. If no
such sale is completed in such 30 day period, the provisions hereof shall apply
again to any proposed sale of the Optioned Interest.
(d) If any Non-Selling Partner exercises the right to purchase the
Optioned Interest as provided herein and such Non-Selling Partner(s) have
elected to purchase all of the Optioned Interest, the purchase of such Optioned
Interest shall be completed within the 30 day period commencing on the date of
delivery of the First Refusal Notice on the terms set forth in the First Refusal
Notice. If such Non-Selling Partner does not consummate the Purchase of such
Optioned Interest, (x) the Selling Partner shall be entitled to all expenses of
collection, (y) the Selling Partner shall be entitled to pursue all available
legal remedies against the Non-Selling Partner, including specific enforcement
of the purchase of the Optioned Interest on the terms set forth in the First
Refusal Notice and (z) notwithstanding the specific enforcement remedy, the
Selling Partner may complete the sale of the Optioned Interest to the third
party on the terms set forth in the First Refusal Notice.
(e) With respect to the Limited Partners who are members of the WPP Group,
the provisions of Section 7.7 will apply to the sale of the collective
Partnership Interests of all of the members of the WPP Group, and no Offer will
be deemed to be valid unless it is an Offer for the entirety of the collective
Partnership Interests of the WPP Group and the associated Membership Interests
to be offered pursuant to Section 7.1(b).

party as is designated by the General Partner will act as liquidating trustee of
the Partnership (the "LIQUIDATING TRUSTEE") and proceed to wind up the business

practice. The Partners and their respective designees will have the right to
purchase any Partnership property to be sold on liquidation, provided that the
terms on which such sale is made are no less favorable than would otherwise be
available from third parties. The gains and losses from the sale of the
Partnership assets, together with all other revenue, income, gain, deduction,
expense, loss and credit during the period, will be allocated in accordance with
Article V. A reasonable amount of time shall be allowed for the period of
winding up in light of prevailing market conditions and so as to avoid undue
loss in connection with any sale of the Partnership's assets. This Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect during the period of winding up. In
addition, upon request of the General Partner and if the Liquidating Trustee
determines that it would be imprudent to dispose of any non-cash assets of the
Partnership, such assets may be distributed in kind to the Partners in lieu of
cash, proportionately to their right to receive cash distributions under this
Agreement.
(b) Accounting. Upon completion of its efforts under Section 8.3(a), the
Liquidating Trustee will cause proper accounting to be made of the Capital
Account of each Partner, including recognition of gain or loss on any asset to
be distributed in kind as if such asset had been sold for consideration equal to
the fair market value of the asset at the time of the distribution. The Partners
intend that the allocations provided herein shall result in Capital Account
balances in proportion to the Partnership Percentages of the Partners.
(c) Liquidating Distributions. In settling accounts after dissolution of
the Partnership, the assets of the Partnership shall be paid to creditors of the
Partnership and to the Partners in the following order:
(i) to creditors of the Partnership (including Partners) in the
order of priority as provided by law whether by payment or the making of
reasonable provision for payment thereof, and in connection therewith
there shall be withheld such reasonable reserves for contingent,
conditioned or unconditioned liabilities as the Liquidating Trustee in its
reasonable discretion deems adequate, such reserves (or balances thereof)
to be held and distributed in such manner and at such times as the
Liquidating Trustee, in its discretion, deems reasonably advisable;
provided, however, that such amounts will be maintained in a separate bank
account and that any amounts in such bank account remaining after three
years be distributed to the Partners or their successors and assigns as if
such amount had been available for distribution under Section 8.3(c)(ii),
and then
(ii) to the Partners in proportion to the positive balances of their
Capital Accounts, as fully adjusted pursuant to Section 3.4, including
adjustment for all gains and losses actually or deemed realized upon
disposition or distribution of assets in connection with the liquidation
and winding up of the Partnership.
Any distribution to the Partners in liquidation of the Partnership shall
be made by the later of the end of the taxable year in which the liquidation
occurs or 90 days after the date of such liquidation. For purposes of the
preceding sentence, the term "liquidation" shall have the same meaning as set
forth in Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(2)(ii) as in effect at such time and
liquidating distributions shall be further deemed to be made pursuant to this
Agreement upon the
23
event of a liquidation as defined in such Regulation for which no actual
liquidation occurs with a deemed recontribution by the Partners of such deemed
liquidating distributions to the continuing Partnership pursuant to this
Agreement.
(d) The provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, this
Section 8.3, are intended solely to benefit the Partners and, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, shall not be construed as conferring any benefit upon
any creditor of the Partnership. No such creditor of the Partnership shall be a
third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, and no Partner shall have any
duty or obligation to any creditor of the Partnership to issue any call for
capital pursuant to this Agreement.
8.4 TERMINATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP
The Partnership shall terminate when all assets of the Partnership, after
payment or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the
Partnership, shall have been distributed to the Partners in the manner provided
for in this Article VIII, and the Certificate shall have been canceled in the
manner required by the Act.
8.5 NO ACTION FOR DISSOLUTION
The Limited Partners acknowledge that irreparable damage would be done to
the goodwill and reputation of the Partnership if any Limited Partner should
bring an action in court to dissolve the Partnership under circumstances where
dissolution is not required by Section 8.1. Accordingly, except where the
General Partner has failed to cause the liquidation of the Partnership as
required by Section 8.1 and except as specifically provided in Section 17-802 of
the Act, each Limited Partner hereby to the fullest extent permitted by law
waives and renounces his or its right to initiate legal action to seek
dissolution of the Partnership or to seek the appointment of a receiver or
trustee to wind up the affairs of the Partnership, except in the cases of fraud,
violation of law, bad faith, gross negligence, willful misconduct or willful
violation of this Agreement.
