SECTION 3.04.      Officers.  Subject to the direction and oversight of the General Partner, the day-to-day administration of the business of the Partnership may be carried out by natural persons who may be designated as officers by the General Partner, with titles including but not limited to “Chief Executive Officer” or “Co-Chief Executive Officer,” “Chief Operating Officer,” “Chief Financial Officer,” “General Counsel,” “Chief Administrative Officer,” “Chief Compliance Officer,” “Principal Accounting Officer,” “President,” “Vice President,” “Treasurer,” “Assistant Treasurer,” “Secretary,” “Assistant Secretary,” “General Manager,” “Senior Managing Director,” “Managing Director,” “Director” and “Principal” as and to the extent authorized by the General Partner.  The officers of the Partnership shall have such titles and powers and perform such duties as shall be determined from time to time by the General Partner and otherwise as shall customarily pertain to such offices.  Any number of offices may be held by the same person.  All officers shall be subject to the supervision and direction of the General Partner and may be removed from such office by the General Partner and the authority, duties or responsibilities of any officer of the Partnership may be suspended by the General Partner from time to time, in each case in the sole discretion of the General Partner.  The General Partner shall not cease to be a general partner of the Partnership as a result of the delegation of any duties hereunder.  No officer of the Partnership, in its capacity as such, shall be considered a general partner of the Partnership by agreement, estoppel, as a result of the performance of its duties hereunder or otherwise.

SECTION 3.05.      Authority of Partners.  No Limited Partner, in its capacity as such, shall participate in the conduct of the business of the Partnership or have any control over the business of the Partnership. Except as expressly provided herein, the Units do not confer any rights upon the Limited Partners to participate in the affairs of the Partnership described in this Agreement. Except as expressly provided herein, the Limited Partners shall have no right to vote on any matter involving the Partnership, including with respect to any merger, consolidation, combination or conversion of the Partnership. The conduct, control and management of the Partnership shall be vested exclusively in the General Partner. In all matters relating to or arising

11

out of the conduct of the operation of the Partnership, the decision of the General Partner shall be the decision of the Partnership. Except as required or permitted by Law, or expressly provided in the ultimate sentence of this Section 3.05 or by separate agreement with the Partnership, no Partner who is not also a General Partner (and acting in such capacity) shall take any part in the management, conduct or control of the operation or business of the Partnership in its capacity as a Partner, nor shall any Partner who is not also a General Partner (and acting in such capacity) have any right, authority or power to act for or on behalf of or bind the Partnership in his or its capacity as a Partner in any respect or assume any obligation or responsibility of the Partnership or of any other Partner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Partnership may employ one or more Partners from time to time, and such Partners, in their capacity as employees, officers or agents of the Partnership (and not, for clarity, in their capacity as Limited Partners of the Partnership), may take part in the control, conduct and management of the business of the Partnership to the extent such authority and power to act for or on behalf of the Partnership has been delegated to them by the General Partner.

SECTION 3.06.      Action by Written Consent or Ratification.  Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Partners pursuant to this Agreement shall be taken if all Partners whose consent or ratification is required consent thereto or provide a ratification in writing.

ARTICLE IV

DISTRIBUTIONS

SECTION 4.01.      Distributions.  (a)  The General Partner, in its sole discretion, may authorize distributions by the Partnership to the Partners.  The Designated Percentage of any distribution that is attributable to Existing Carried Interests or Future Carried Interests shall be made to holders of Class B Units and the remaining amount of any such distribution shall be made to holders of Class A Units, in each case pro rata in accordance with such Partners’ respective Class B Percentage Interest and Class A Percentage Interest.  All other distributions not attributable to Existing Carried Interests or Future Carried Interests shall be made solely to the holders of Class A Units pro rata in accordance with such Partners’ respective Class A Percentage Interests.

(b)   (i)    If the General Partner reasonably determines that the Partnership has taxable income for a Fiscal Year (“Net Taxable Income”) allocable to holders of Class A Units, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to distribute Available Cash attributable to Class A Units, to the extent that other distributions made by the Partnership to holders of Class A Units for such year were otherwise insufficient, in an amount equal to the Class A Tax Amount (the “Class A Tax Distributions”).  If the General Partner reasonably determines that the Partnership has Net Taxable Income allocable to holders of Class B Units, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to distribute Available Cash attributable to Class B Units, to the extent that other distributions made by the Partnership to holders of Class B Units for such year were otherwise insufficient, in an amount equal to the Class B Tax Amount (the “Class B Tax Distributions”).  For purposes of computing the Tax Amount, the effect of any adjustment under Section 743(b) of the Code arising after the Restructuring Transactions will be ignored. Class A Tax Distributions and Class B Tax Distributions shall be made pro rata to holders of Class A Units or Class B Units in accordance with their Class A Percentage Interest or Class B Percentage Interest, as applicable.  Any Tax

12

Distributions shall be treated in all respects as offsets against future distributions pursuant to Section 4.01(a).

(ii) Tax Distributions shall be calculated and paid no later than one day prior to each quarterly due date for the payment by corporations on a calendar year of estimated taxes under the Code in the following manner (A) for the first quarterly period, 25% of the Tax Amount, (B) for the second quarterly period, 50% of the Tax Amount, less the prior Tax Distributions for the Fiscal Year, (C) for the third quarterly period, 75% of the Tax Amount, less the prior Tax Distributions for the Fiscal Year and (D) for the fourth quarterly period, 100% of the Tax Amount, less the prior Tax Distributions for the Fiscal Year. Following each Fiscal Year, and no later than one day prior to the due date for the payment by corporations of income taxes for such Fiscal Year, the General Partner shall make an amended calculation of the Tax Amount for such Fiscal Year (the “Amended Tax Amount”), and shall cause the Partnership to distribute a Tax Distribution, out of Available Cash, to the extent that the Amended Tax Amount so calculated exceeds the cumulative Tax Distributions previously made by the Partnership in respect of such Fiscal Year. If the Amended Tax Amount is less than the cumulative Tax Distributions previously made by the Partnership in respect of the relevant Fiscal Year, then the difference (the “Credit Amount”) shall be applied against, and shall reduce, the amount of Tax Distributions made for subsequent Fiscal Years.   Within 30 days following the date on which the Partnership files a U.S. tax return on Form 1065, the General Partner shall make a final calculation of the Tax Amount of such Fiscal Year (the “Final Tax Amount”) and shall cause the Partnership to distribute a Tax Distribution, out of Available Cash, to the extent that the Final Tax Amount so calculated exceeds the Amended Tax Amount. If the Final Tax Amount is less than the Amended Tax Amount in respect of the relevant Fiscal Year, then the difference (“Additional Credit Amount”) shall be applied against, and shall reduce, the amount of Tax Distributions made for subsequent Fiscal Years.  Any Credit Amount and Additional Credit Amount applied against future Tax Distributions shall be treated as an amount actually distributed pursuant to this Section 4.01(b) for purposes of the computations herein.

SECTION 4.02.      Liquidation Distribution.  Distributions made upon dissolution of the Partnership shall be made as provided in Section 8.03.

SECTION 4.03.      Limitations on Distribution.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the General Partner shall not make a Partnership distribution to any Partner if such distribution would violate Section 17-607 of the Act or other applicable Law.

SECTION 4.04.      Designated Percentage.  The “Designated Percentage” means (i) with respect to Existing Carried Interests, 40%, and (ii) with respect to each Future Carried Interest, 40% or such percentage as designated from time to time by a General Partner.  Such Designated Percentage shall apply to any Future Carried Interests with respect to investments made until such time as a new Designated Percentage is designated by the General Partner.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Designated Percentage shall apply to a Future Carried Interest regardless of when the underlying investment is realized.

ARTICLE V

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS; CAPITAL ACCOUNTS;
TAX ALLOCATIONS; TAX MATTERS

SECTION 5.01.      Initial Capital Contributions.  (a)  The Partners have made, on or prior to the Effective Time, Capital Contributions and, in exchange, the Partnership has issued to the Partners the number of Class A Units and Class B Units as specified in the books and records of the Partnership.

(b)   Upon issuance by the Partnership of Class A Units to the Partners, the interests in the Partnership as provided in this Agreement and under the Act held by KKR Management Holdings Limited Partner LLC will be cancelled.

SECTION 5.02.      No Additional Capital Contributions.  Except as otherwise provided in this Article V, no Partner shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions to the Partnership without the consent of such Partner or permitted to make additional capital contributions to the Partnership without the consent of the General Partner.

SECTION 5.03.      Capital Accounts.  (a) A separate capital account (a “Capital Account”) shall be established and maintained for each Partner in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv).  To the extent consistent with such Treasury Regulations, the Capital Account of each Partner shall be credited with such Partner’s Capital Contributions, if any, all Profits allocated to such Partner pursuant to Section 5.04 and any items of income or gain which are specially allocated pursuant to Section 5.05; and shall be debited with all Losses allocated to such Partner pursuant to Section 5.04, any items of loss or deduction of the Partnership specially allocated to such Partner pursuant to Section 5.05, and all cash and the Carrying Value of any property (net of liabilities assumed by such Partner and the liabilities to which such property is subject) distributed by the Partnership to such Partner.  Any references in any section of this Agreement to the Capital Account of a Partner shall be deemed to refer to such Capital Account as the same may be credited or debited from time to time as set forth above.  In the event of any transfer of any interest in the Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to the extent it relates to the transferred interest.

SECTION 5.04.      Allocations of Profits and Losses.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Profits and Losses (and, to the extent necessary, individual items of income, gain or loss or deduction of the Partnership) shall be allocated to holders of Class A Units in a manner such that the Capital Account of each Partner after giving effect to the Special Allocations set forth in Section 5.05 is, as nearly as possible, equal (proportionately) to (i) the distributions that would be made to holders of Class A Units pursuant to Article IV if the Partnership were dissolved, its affairs wound up and its assets sold for cash equal to their Carrying Value, all Partnership liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each non-recourse liability to the Carrying Value of the assets securing such liability) and the net assets of the Partnership were distributed to the Partners pursuant to this Agreement, minus (ii) such Partner’s share of Partnership Minimum Gain and Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the General Partner shall make such adjustments to Capital Accounts as it determines in its sole discretion to be appropriate to ensure allocations are made in accordance with a Partner’s interest in the Partnership.  For the

14

avoidance of doubt, and in light of Section 5.05(a), no Profits or Losses will be allocated in respect of Class B Units or distributions attributable thereto.

SECTION 5.05.      Special Allocations.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Article V:

(a)   Class B Allocation.  The Designated Percentage of items of income, gain, loss or deduction attributable to an Existing Carried Interest or Future Carried Interests shall be allocated to the holders of Class B Units, pro rata, in accordance with their Class B Percentage Interest.

(b)   Minimum Gain Chargeback.  If there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain or Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain (determined in accordance with the principles of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(d) and 1.704-2(i)) during any Partnership taxable year, the Partners shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to their respective shares of such net decrease during such year, determined pursuant to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5).  The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f).  This Section 5.05(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements in such Treasury Regulations Sections and shall be interpreted consistently therewith; including that no chargeback shall be required to the extent of the exceptions provided in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f) and 1.704-2(i)(4).

(c)   Qualified Income Offset.  If any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balance in such Partner’s Adjusted Capital Account Balance created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as promptly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.05(b) shall be made only to the extent that a Partner would have a deficit Adjusted Capital Account Balance in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article V have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.05(b) were not in this Agreement.  This Section 5.05(b) is intended to comply with the “qualified income offset” requirement of the Code and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(d)   Gross Income Allocation.  If any Partner has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Fiscal Year which is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount such Partner is obligated to restore, if any, pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, and (ii) the amount such Partner is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.05(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that a Partner would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article V have been tentatively made as if Section 5.05(b) and this Section 5.05(c) were not in this Agreement.

(e)   Nonrecourse Deductions.  Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their respective Class A Percentage Interests.

15

(f)    Partner Nonrecourse Deductions.  Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Partner who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the liability to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(j).

(g)   Creditable Non-U.S. Taxes.  Creditable Non-U.S. Taxes for any taxable period attributable to the Partnership, or an entity owned directly or indirectly by the Partnership, shall be allocated to the Partners in proportion to the partners’ distributive shares of income (including income allocated pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code) to which the Creditable Non-U.S. Tax relates (under principles of Treasury Regulations Section 1.904-6).  The provisions of this Section 5.05(f) are intended to comply with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1 (b)(4)(viii), and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(h)   Ameliorative Allocations. Any special allocations of income or gain pursuant to Sections 5.05(b) or 5.05(c) shall be taken into account in computing subsequent allocations pursuant to Section 5.04 and this Section 5.05(g), so that the net amount of any items so allocated and all other items allocated to each Partner shall, to the extent possible, be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each Partner if such allocations pursuant to Sections 5.05(b) or 5.05(c) had not occurred.

(i)    Compensation Deduction. If the Partnership is entitled to a deduction for compensation to a person providing services to the Partnership or its subsidiaries the economic cost of which is borne by a Partner (and not the Partnership or its subsidiaries), whether paid in cash, Class A Units or other property, the Partner who bore such economic cost shall be treated as having contributed to the Partnership such cash, Class A Units or other property, and the Partnership shall allocate the deduction attributable to such payment to such Partner.  If any income or gain is recognized by the Partnership by reason of such transfer of property to the person providing services to the Partnership or its subsidiaries, such income or gain will be allocated to the Partner who transferred such property.

SECTION 5.06.      Tax Allocations.  For income tax purposes, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner as the corresponding items of Profits and Losses and specially allocated items are allocated for Capital Account purposes; provided that in the case of any asset the Carrying Value of which differs from its adjusted tax basis for U.S. federal income tax purposes, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall be allocated solely for income tax purposes in accordance with the principles of Section 704(c)(1)(A) of the Code (using the traditional method as set forth in Treasury Regulation 1.704-3(b), unless otherwise agreed to by the Limited Partners) so as to take account of the difference between Carrying Value and adjusted basis of such asset.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the General Partner may make such allocations as it deems reasonably necessary to ensure allocations are made in accordance with a Partner’s interest in the Partnership, taking into account such facts and circumstances as it deems reasonably necessary for this purpose.

SECTION 5.07.      Tax Advances.  To the extent the General Partner reasonably believes that the Partnership is required by Law to withhold or to make tax payments on behalf of or with respect to any Partner or the Partnership is subjected to tax itself by reason of the status of

16

any Partner (“Tax Advances”), the General Partner may withhold such amounts and make such tax payments as so required.  All Tax Advances made on behalf of a Partner shall be repaid by reducing the amount of the current or next succeeding distribution or distributions which would otherwise have been made to such Partner or, if such distributions are not sufficient for that purpose, by so reducing the proceeds of liquidation otherwise payable to such Partner.  For all purposes of this Agreement such Partner shall be treated as having received the amount of the distribution that is equal to the Tax Advance.  Each Partner hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership and the other Partners from and against any liability (including, without limitation, any liability for taxes, penalties, additions to tax or interest) imposed as a result of the Partnership’s failure to withhold or make a tax payment on behalf of such Partner which withholding or payment is required pursuant to applicable Law.

SECTION 5.08.      Tax Matters.  The General Partner shall be the initial “tax matters partner” within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code (the “Tax Matters Partner”). The Partnership shall file as a partnership for federal, state, provincial and local income tax purposes, except where otherwise required by Law. All elections required or permitted to be made by the Partnership, and all other tax decisions and determinations relating to federal, state, provincial or local tax matters of the Partnership, shall be made by the Tax Matters Partner, in consultation with the Partnership’s attorneys and/or accountants. Tax audits, controversies and litigations shall be conducted under the direction of the Tax Matters Partner. The Tax Matters Partner shall keep the other Partners reasonably informed as to any tax actions, examinations or proceedings relating to the Partnership and shall submit to the other Partners, for their review and comment, any settlement or compromise offer with respect to any disputed item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit of the Partnership. As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each Fiscal Year, the Partnership shall send to each Partner a copy of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Schedule K-1, and any comparable statements required by applicable U.S. state or local income tax Law as a result of the Partnership’s activities or investments, with respect to such Fiscal Year. The Partnership also shall provide the Partners with such other information as may be reasonably requested for purposes of allowing the Partners to prepare and file their own tax returns.

SECTION 5.09.      Other Tax Provisions.  Certain of the foregoing provisions and the other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b) and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such regulations.  Sections 5.03, 5.04 and 5.05 may be amended at any time by the General Partner if necessary, in the opinion of qualified tax advisor to the Partnership, to comply with such regulations or any other applicable Law, so long as any such amendment does not materially change the relative economic interests of the Partners.

(i)            a copy of the Certificate and this Agreement and all amendments thereto, together with a copy of the executed copies of all powers of attorney pursuant to which the Certificate and this Agreement and all amendments thereto have been executed; and

(ii)           promptly after their becoming available, copies of the Partnership’s U.S. federal, state and local income tax returns and reports, if any, for the three most recent years.

(c)   The General Partner may keep confidential from the Limited Partners, for such period of time as the General Partner determines in its sole discretion, (i) any information that the General Partner reasonably believes to be in the nature of trade secrets or (ii) other information the disclosure of which the General Partner believes is not in the best interests of the Partnership, could damage the Partnership or its business or that the Partnership is required by Law or by agreement with any third party to keep confidential.

ARTICLE VII

PARTNERSHIP UNITS

SECTION 7.01.      Units.  Interests in the Partnership shall be represented by Units.  The Units initially are comprised of two Classes: Class A Units and Class B Units.  The General Partner may establish, from time to time in accordance with such procedures as the General Partner shall determine from time to time, other Classes, one or more series of any such Classes, or other Partnership securities with such designations, preferences, rights, powers and duties (which may be senior to existing Classes and series of Units or other Partnership securities), as shall be determined by the General Partner, including (i) the right to share in Profits and Losses or items thereof; (ii) the right to share in Partnership distributions; (iii) the rights upon dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership; (iv) whether, and the terms and conditions upon which, the Partnership may or shall be required to redeem the Units or other Partnership securities (including sinking fund provisions); (v) whether such Unit or other Partnership security is issued with the privilege of conversion or exchange and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion or exchange; (vi) the terms and conditions upon which each Unit or other Partnership security will be issued, evidenced by certificates and assigned or transferred; (vii) the method for determining the Class A Percentage Interest and Class B Percentage Interest as to such Units or other Partnership securities; and (viii) the right, if any, of the holder of each such Unit or other Partnership security to vote on Partnership matters, including matters relating to the relative designations, preferences, rights, powers and duties of such Units or other Partnership securities. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement to the contrary, any reference to “Units” shall include the Class A Units, the Class B Units and any other Classes that may be established in accordance with this Agreement.  All Units of a particular Class shall have identical rights in all respects as all other Units of such Class, except in each case as otherwise specified in this Agreement.

18

SECTION 7.02.      Register.  The register of the Partnership shall be the definitive record of ownership of each Unit and all relevant information with respect to each Partner.  Unless the General Partner shall determine otherwise, Units shall be uncertificated and recorded in the books and records of the Partnership.

SECTION 7.03.      Registered Partners.  The Partnership shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a Person registered on its records as the owner of Units for all purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in Units on the part of any other Person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the Act or other applicable Law.

Any purported Transfer that is not in accordance with this Agreement shall be, to the fullest extent permitted by law, null and void.

(b)        No Limited Partner or Assignee may create an Encumbrance with respect to all or any portion of its Units (or any beneficial interest therein) other than Encumbrances that run in favor of the Limited Partner unless the General Partner consents in writing thereto, which consent may be given or withheld, or made subject to such conditions as are determined by the General Partner, in the General Partner’s sole discretion.  Consent of the General Partner shall be withheld until the holder of the Encumbrance acknowledges the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Any purported Encumbrance that is not in accordance with this Agreement shall be, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, null and void.

SECTION 7.06.      Further Restrictions.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, in no event may any Transfer of a Unit be made by any Limited Partner or Assignee if:

(a)         such Transfer is made to any Person who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own such Unit;

(b)        such Transfer would require the registration of such transferred Unit or of any Class of Unit pursuant to any applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) or other non-U.S

19

securities laws or would constitute a non-exempt distribution pursuant to applicable provincial or state securities laws;

(c)         such Transfer would cause the Partnership to become a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal tax law purposes;

(d)        such Transfer would cause (i) all or any portion of the assets of the Partnership to (A) constitute “plan assets” (under ERISA, the Code or any applicable Similar Law) of any existing or contemplated Limited Partner, or (B) be subject to the provisions of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any applicable Similar Law, or (ii) the General Partner to become a fiduciary with respect to any existing or contemplated Limited Partner, pursuant to ERISA, any applicable Similar Law, or otherwise;

(e)         to the extent requested by the General Partner, the Partnership does not receive such legal or tax opinions and written instruments (including, without limitation, copies of any instruments of Transfer and such Assignee’s consent to be bound by this Agreement as an Assignee) that are in a form satisfactory to the General Partner, as determined in the General Partner’s sole discretion.

SECTION 7.07.      Rights of Assignees.  Subject to Section 7.09, the Transferee of any permitted Transfer pursuant to this Article VII will be an assignee only (“Assignee”), and only will receive, to the extent transferred, the distributions and allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit or similar item to which the Partner which transferred its Units would be entitled, and such Assignee will not be entitled or enabled to exercise any other rights or powers of a Partner, such other rights, and all obligations relating to, or in connection with, such Interest remaining with the transferring Partner.  The transferring Partner will remain a Partner even if it has transferred all of its Units to one or more Assignees until such time as the Assignee(s) is admitted to the Partnership as a Partner pursuant to Section 7.09.

SECTION 7.08.      Admissions, Withdrawals and Removals.

(a)   The General Partner may not be removed.

(b)   No Person may be admitted to the Partnership as an additional General Partner or substitute General Partner without the prior written consent or ratification of Partners whose Class A Percentage Interests exceed 50% of the Class A Percentage Interests of all Partners in the aggregate. A General Partner will not be entitled to Transfer all of its Units or to withdraw from being a General Partner of the Partnership unless another General Partner shall have been admitted hereunder (and not have previously been removed or withdrawn).

(c)   No Limited Partner will be removed or entitled to withdraw from being a Partner of the Partnership except in accordance with Section 7.10.

(d)   Except as otherwise provided in Article VIII or the Act, no admission, substitution, withdrawal or removal of a Partner will cause the dissolution of the Partnership.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, any purported admission, withdrawal or removal that is not in accordance with this Agreement shall be null and void.

20

SECTION 7.09. Admission of Assignees as Substitute Limited Partners.  An Assignee will become a substitute Limited Partner only if and when each of the following conditions is satisfied:

(b) if required by the General Partner, the General Partner receives written instruments (including, without limitation, copies of any instruments of Transfer and such Assignee’s consent to be bound by this Agreement as a substitute Limited Partner) that are in a form satisfactory to the General Partner (as determined in its sole discretion);

(c) if required by the General Partner, the General Partner receives an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the General Partner to the effect that such Transfer is in compliance with this Agreement and all applicable Law; and

(c) the written consent of all Partners;

(d) any other event not inconsistent with any provision hereof causing a dissolution of the Partnership under the Act;

(e) the Incapacity or removal of the General Partner or the occurrence of a Disabling Event with respect to the General Partner; provided that the Partnership will not be dissolved or required to be wound up in connection with any of the events specified in this Section 8.02(e) if: (i) at the time of the occurrence of such event there is at least one other general partner of the Partnership who is hereby authorized to, and elects to, carry on the business of the Partnership; or (ii) all Limited Partners consent to or ratify the continuation of the business of the Partnership and the appointment of another general partner of the Partnership, effective as of the event that caused the General Partner to cease to be a general partner of the Partnership, within 90 days following the occurrence of any such event, which consent shall be deemed (and if requested each Limited Partner shall provide a written consent or ratification) to have been given for all Limited Partners if the holders of more than 50% of the Units then outstanding agree in writing to so continue the business of the Partnership.

SECTION 8.03. Distribution upon Dissolution.  Upon dissolution, the Partnership shall not be terminated and shall continue until the winding up of the affairs of the Partnership is completed. Upon the winding up of the Partnership, the General Partner, or any other Person designated by the General Partner (the “Liquidation Agent”), shall take full account of the assets and liabilities of the Partnership and shall, unless the General Partner determines otherwise, liquidate the assets of the Partnership as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof. The proceeds of any liquidation shall be applied and distributed in the following order:

(a) First, to the satisfaction of debts and liabilities of the Partnership (including satisfaction of all indebtedness to Partners and their Affiliates to the extent otherwise permitted by Law) including the expenses of liquidation, and including the establishment of any reserve which the Liquidation Agent shall deem reasonably necessary for any contingent, conditional or unmatured contractual liabilities or obligations of the Partnership (“Contingencies”). Any such reserve may be paid over by the Liquidation Agent to any attorney-at-law, or acceptable party, as escrow agent, to be held for disbursement in payment of any Contingencies and, at the expiration of such period as shall be deemed advisable by the Liquidation Agent for distribution of the balance in the manner hereinafter provided in this Section 8.03; and

(b) The balance, if any, to the Partners in accordance with Section 4.01.

SECTION 8.04. Time for Liquidation.  A reasonable amount of time shall be allowed for the orderly liquidation of the assets of the Partnership and the discharge of liabilities to

22

creditors so as to enable the Liquidation Agent to minimize the losses attendant upon such liquidation.

SECTION 8.05. Termination.  The Partnership shall terminate when all of the assets of the Partnership, after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Partnership, shall have been distributed to the holders of Units in the manner provided for in this Article VIII, and the Certificate shall have been cancelled in the manner required by the Act.

SECTION 8.06. Claims of the Partners.  The Partners shall look solely to the Partnership’s assets for the return of their Capital Contributions and if the assets of the Partnership remaining after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Partnership are insufficient to return such Capital Contributions, the Partners shall have no recourse against the Partnership or any other Partner or any other Person. No Partner with a negative balance in such Partner’s Capital Account shall have any obligation to the Partnership or to the other Partners or to any creditor or other Person to restore such negative balance during the existence of the Partnership, upon dissolution or termination of the Partnership or otherwise, except to the extent required by the Act.

SECTION 8.07. Survival of Certain Provisions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions of Section 9.02 and Section 10.10 shall survive the termination of the Partnership.

ARTICLE IX

LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION

SECTION 9.01. Liability of Partners.

(a) No Limited Partner shall be liable for any debt, obligation or liability of the Partnership or of any other Partner or have any obligation to restore any deficit balance in its Capital Account solely by reason of being a Partner of the Partnership, except to the extent required by the Act.

(b) This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create or impose any fiduciary duty on any of the Partners (including without limitation, the General Partner) hereto or on their respective Affiliates.  Further, the Partners hereby waive any and all fiduciary duties that, absent such waiver, may exist at or be implied by Law, and in doing so, recognize, acknowledge and agree that their duties and obligations to one another and to the Partnership are only as expressly set forth in this Agreement and those required by the Act.

(c) To the extent that, under Law, any Partner (including without limitation, the General Partner) has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Partnership or to another Partner, the Partners (including without limitation, the General Partner) acting under this Agreement will not be liable to the Partnership or to any such other Partner for their good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement.  The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict or eliminate the duties and liabilities relating thereto of any Partner (including without limitation, the General Partner) otherwise existing under Law, are agreed by the

23

Partners to replace to that extent such other duties and liabilities of the Partners relating thereto (including without limitation, the General Partner).

(d) The General Partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants and financial or other advisors and any act or omission suffered or taken by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership or in furtherance of the interests of the Partnership in good faith in reliance upon and in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or financial or other advisors will be full justification for any such act or omission, and the General Partner will be fully protected in so acting or omitting to act so long as such counsel or accountants or financial or other advisors were selected with reasonable care.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or otherwise applicable provision of Law, whenever in this Agreement the General Partner is permitted or required to make a decision (i) in its “sole discretion” or “discretion” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, such General Partner shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Partnership or the Limited Partners, or (ii) in its “good faith” or under another expressed standard, such General Partner shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standards.

SECTION 9.02. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Partnership shall indemnify any person (including such person’s heirs, executors or administrators) who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, claim or proceeding (brought in the right of the Partnership or otherwise), whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and whether formal or informal, including appeals, by reason of the fact that such person, or a person for whom such person was the legal representative, is or was a Partner (including without limitation, the General Partner) or a director, officer, partner, trustee, manager, member, employee or agent of a Partner (including without limitation, the General Partner) or the Partnership or, while a director, officer, partner, trustee, manager, member, employee or agent of a Partner (including without limitation, the General Partner) or the Partnership, is or was serving at the request of the Partnership as a director, officer, partner, trustee, manager, member, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, limited liability company, nonprofit entity or other enterprise or person (an “Other Company”), for and against all loss and liability suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit, claim or proceeding, including appeals; provided that such person shall not be entitled to indemnification hereunder only to the extent such person’s conduct constituted fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct. A director, officer, partner, trustee, manager, member, employee or agent of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership or any other subsidiary designated from time to time by the Partnership (a “Subsidiary Person”) will be deemed to be serving at the request of the Partnership as a director, officer, partner, trustee, manager, member, employee or agent of such subsidiary as an Other Company for purposes of this Section 9.02 (regardless of whether such person is or was a director, officer, partner, trustee, manager, member, employee or agent of a Partner), and the Partnership shall indemnify such Subsidiary Person in accordance with this

24

Section 9.02; provided that such person shall not be entitled to indemnification hereunder to the extent (i) such person’s conduct constituted fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct or (ii) such person’s actions or omissions were not made during the course of performing or otherwise in connection with (x) his or her duties as a director, officer, partner, trustee, manager, member, employee or agent of such subsidiary or an affiliate thereof or (y) a request made by such subsidiary or an affiliate thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing two sentences, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02(c), the Partnership shall be required to indemnify a person described in the foregoing two sentences in connection with any action, suit, claim or proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such person only if the commencement of such action, suit, claim or proceeding (or part thereof) by such person was authorized by the General Partner or, in the case of a Subsidiary Person, such subsidiary or the General Partner. The indemnification of a person who is or was serving at the request of the Partnership as a director, officer, partner, trustee, manager, member, employee or agent of an Other Company shall be secondary to any and all indemnification to which such person is entitled from, firstly, the relevant Other Company (including such subsidiary), and from, secondly, the relevant Fund (if applicable), and will only be paid to the extent the primary indemnification is not paid and the provisos set forth in the first two sentences of this Section 9.02(a) do not apply; provided that such Other Company and such Fund shall not be entitled to contribution or indemnification from or subrogation against the Partnership, unless otherwise mandated by applicable law.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Partnership makes an indemnification payment or advances expenses to such a person entitled to primary indemnification, the Partnership shall be subrogated to the rights of such person against the person or persons responsible for the primary indemnification.  “Fund” means any fund, investment vehicle or account whose investments are managed or advised by the Partnership (if any) or an affiliate thereof.

(b) Advancement of Expenses.  To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Partnership shall promptly pay expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by any person described in Section 9.02(a) in appearing at, participating in or defending any action, suit, claim or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit, claim or proceeding, including appeals, upon presentation of an undertaking on behalf of such person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 9.02 or otherwise.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02(c), the Partnership shall be required to pay expenses of a person described in such sentence in connection with any action, suit, claim or proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such person only if the commencement of such action, suit, claim or proceeding (or part thereof) by such person was authorized by the General Partner.

(c) Unpaid Claims.  If a claim for indemnification (following the final disposition of such action, suit, claim or proceeding) or advancement of expenses under this Section 9.02 is not paid in full within thirty (30) days after a written claim therefor by any person described in Section 9.02(a) has been received by the Partnership, such person may file proceedings to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim.  In any such action the Partnership shall have the burden of proving that such person is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses under applicable Law.

25

(d) Insurance.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Partnership may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person described in Section 9.02(a) against any liability asserted against such person, whether or not the Partnership would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Section 9.02 or otherwise.

(e) Enforcement of Rights.  The provisions of this Section 9.02 shall be applicable to all actions, claims, suits or proceedings made or commenced on or after the Effective Time, whether arising from acts or omissions to act occurring on, before or after its adoption.  The provisions of this Section 9.02 shall be deemed to be a contract between the Partnership and each person entitled to indemnification under this Section 9.02 (or legal representative thereof) who serves in such capacity at any time while this Section 9.02 and the relevant provisions of applicable Law, if any, are in effect, and any amendment, modification or repeal hereof shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts or any action, suit, claim or proceeding then or theretofore existing, or any action, suit, claim or proceeding thereafter brought or threatened based in whole or in part on any such state of facts.  If any provision of this Section 9.02  shall be found to be invalid or limited in application by reason of any Law, it shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions hereof.  The rights of indemnification provided in this Section 9.02 shall neither be exclusive of, nor be deemed in limitation of, any rights to which any person may otherwise be or become entitled or permitted by contract, this Agreement, insurance or as a matter of Law, both as to actions in such person’s official capacity and actions in any other capacity, it being the policy of the Partnership that indemnification of any person whom the Partnership is obligated to indemnify pursuant to Section 9.02(a) shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by Law.

(f) Benefit Plans.  For purposes of this Section 9.02, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Partnership” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries.

(g) Non-Exclusivity.  This Section 9.02 shall not limit the right of the Partnership, to the extent and in the manner permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to, and purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of, persons other than persons described in Section 9.02(a).

SECTION 10.08. Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings pertaining thereto.

SECTION 10.09. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Delaware.

SECTION 10.10. Arbitration.

(a) Any and all disputes which cannot be settled amicably, including any ancillary claims of any party arising out of, relating to or in connection with the validity, negotiation, execution, interpretation, performance or non-performance of this Agreement (including without limitation the validity, scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision) shall be finally settled by arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator in New York, New York in accordance with the then-existing Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce; provided, however, that KKR & Co. L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, in its capacity as a Limited Partner, shall not be subject to this Section 10.10. If the parties to the dispute fail to agree on the selection of an arbitrator within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the request for arbitration, the International Chamber of Commerce shall make the appointment.  The arbitrator shall be a lawyer and shall conduct the proceedings in the English language. Performance under this Agreement shall continue if reasonably possible during any arbitration proceedings. Except as required by law or as may be reasonably required in connection with ancillary judicial proceedings to compel arbitration, to obtain temporary or preliminary judicial relief in aid of arbitration, or to confirm or challenge an arbitration award, the arbitration proceedings, including any hearings, shall be confidential, and the parties shall not disclose any awards, any materials in the proceedings created for the purpose of the arbitration, or any documents produced by another party in the proceedings not otherwise in the public domain.

28

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a), the General Partner may bring, or may cause the Partnership to bring, on behalf of the General Partner or the Partnership or on behalf of one or more Partners, an action or special proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of compelling a party to arbitrate, seeking temporary or preliminary relief in aid of an arbitration hereunder, or enforcing an arbitration award and, for the purposes of this paragraph (b), each Partner (i) expressly consents to the application of paragraph (c) of this Section 10.10 to any such action or proceeding, (ii) agrees that proof shall not be required that monetary damages for breach of the provisions of this Agreement would be difficult to calculate and that remedies at law would be inadequate, and (iii) irrevocably appoints the General Partner as such Partner’s agent for service of process in connection with any such action or proceeding and agrees that service of process upon such agent, who shall promptly advise such Partner of any such service of process, shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Partner in any such action or proceeding.

(c) EACH PARTNER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS LOCATED IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10.10, OR ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING ANCILLARY TO AN ARBITRATION OR CONTEMPLATED ARBITRATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO OR CONCERNING THIS AGREEMENT. Such ancillary judicial proceedings include any suit, action or proceeding to compel arbitration, to obtain temporary or preliminary judicial relief in aid of arbitration, or to confirm or challenge an arbitration award. The parties acknowledge that the fora designated by this paragraph (c) have a reasonable relation to this Agreement, the Partnership and to the parties’ relationship with one another. The Partners and the Partnership hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection which they now or hereafter may have to personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue of any such ancillary suit, action or proceeding referred to in this Section 10.10 brought in any court referenced herein and such parties agree not to plead or claim the same.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 10.10 shall be construed to the maximum extent possible to comply with the laws of the State of Delaware, including the Delaware Uniform Arbitration Act (10 Del. C. § 5701 et seq.) (the “Delaware Arbitration Act”).  If, nevertheless, it shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that any provision or wording of this Section 10.10, including any rules of the International Chamber of Commerce, shall be invalid or unenforceable under the Delaware Arbitration Act, or other applicable Law, such invalidity shall not invalidate all of this Section 10.10.  In that case, this Section 10.10 shall be construed so as to limit any term or provision so as to make it valid or enforceable within the requirements of the Delaware Arbitration Act or other applicable Law, and, in the event such term or provision cannot be so limited, this Section 10.10 shall be construed to omit such invalid or unenforceable provision.

SECTION 10.11. Expenses.  Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, the Partnership shall be responsible for all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with its operation.

29

SECTION 10.12. Amendments and Waivers.  (a)  This Agreement (including the Annexes hereto) may be amended, supplemented, waived or modified by the action of the General Partner without the consent of any other Partner; provided that any amendment that would have a material adverse effect on the rights or preferences of any Class of Units in relation to other Classes of Units must be approved by the holders of not less than a majority of the Class A Percentage Interests; provided further, that the General Partner may, without the written consent of any Limited Partner or any other Person, amend, supplement, waive or modify any provision of this Agreement and execute, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file and record whatever documents may be required in connection therewith, to reflect: (i) any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification that the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate in connection with the creation, authorization or issuance of any class or series of equity interest in the Partnership; (ii) the admission, substitution, withdrawal or removal of Partners in accordance with this Agreement; (iii) a change in the name of the Partnership, the location of the principal place of business of the Partnership, the registered agent of the Partnership or the registered office of the Partnership; (iv) any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification that the General Partner determines in its sole discretion to be necessary or appropriate to address changes in U.S. federal income tax regulations, legislation or interpretation; and (v) a change in the Fiscal Year or taxable year of the Partnership and any other changes that the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate as a result of a change in the Fiscal Year or taxable year of the Partnership including a change in the dates on which distributions are to be made by the Partnership.

(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder (other than a failure or delay beyond a period of time specified herein) shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Law.

(c) The General Partner may, in its sole discretion, unilaterally amend this Agreement on or before the effective date of the final regulations to provide for (i) the election of a safe harbor under proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.83-3(l) (or any similar provision) under which the fair market value of a partnership interest that is transferred is treated as being equal to the liquidation value of that interest, (ii) an agreement by the Partnership and each of its Partners to comply with all of the requirements set forth in such regulations and Notice 2005-43 (and any other guidance provided by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service with respect to such election) with respect to all partnership interests transferred in connection with the performance of services while the election remains effective, (iii) the allocation of items of income, gains, deductions and losses required by the final regulations similar to proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(xii)(b) and (c), and (iv) any other related amendments.

(d) Except as may be otherwise required by law in connection with the winding-up, liquidation, or dissolution of the Partnership, each Partner hereby irrevocably waives any and all rights that it may have to maintain an action for judicial accounting or for partition of any of the Partnership’s property.

SECTION 10.13. No Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto and their permitted assigns and successors and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other

30

Person or entity, any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement (other than pursuant to Section 9.02).

SECTION 10.14. Headings.  The headings and subheadings in this Agreement are included for convenience and identification only and are in no way intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent or intent of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 10.15. Construction.  Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees it has had the opportunity to draft, review and edit the language of this Agreement and that it is the intent of the parties hereto that no presumption for or against any party arising out of drafting all or any part of this Agreement will be applied in any dispute relating to, in connection with or involving this Agreement. Accordingly, the parties hereby waive to the fullest extent permitted by law the benefit of any rule of Law or any legal decision that would require that in cases of uncertainty, the language of a contract should be interpreted most strongly against the party who drafted such language.

SECTION 10.16. Power of Attorney.  (a)  Each Limited Partner, by its execution hereof, hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the General Partner as its true and lawful agent and attorney in fact, with full power of substitution and full power and authority in its name, place and stead, to make, execute, sign, acknowledge, swear to, record and file (i) this Agreement and any amendment to this Agreement that has been adopted as herein provided; (ii) the original Certificate and all amendments thereto required or permitted by law or the provisions of this Agreement; (iii) all certificates and other instruments (including consents and ratifications which the Limited Partners have agreed to provide upon a matter receiving the agreed support of Limited Partners) deemed advisable by the General Partner to carry out the provisions of this Agreement (including the provisions of Section 7.04) and Law or to permit the Partnership to become or to continue as a limited partnership or partnership wherein the Limited Partners have limited liability in each jurisdiction where the Partnership may be doing business; (iv) all instruments that the General Partner deems appropriate to reflect a change or modification of this Agreement or the Partnership in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, the admission of additional Limited Partners or substituted Limited Partners pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; (v) all conveyances and other instruments or papers deemed advisable by the General Partner to effect the liquidation and termination of the Partnership; and (vi) all fictitious or assumed name certificates required or permitted (in light of the Partnership’s activities) to be filed on behalf of the Partnership.

(b) The appointment by all Limited Partners of the General Partner as attorney-in-fact will be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest, in recognition of the fact that each of the Partners under this Agreement will be relying upon the power of the General Partners to act as contemplated by this Agreement in any filing and other action by it on behalf of the Partnership, will survive the disability or Incapacity of any Person hereby giving such power, and the transfer or assignment of all or any portion of the Units of such Person, and will not be affected by the subsequent Incapacity of the principal.  In the event of the assignment by a Partner of all of its Units, the foregoing power of attorney of an assignor Partner will survive such assignment until such Partner has withdrawn from the Partnership pursuant to Section 7.10.

31

SECTION 10.17. Schedules.  The General Partner may from time to time execute and deliver to the Limited Partners schedules which set forth information contained in the books and records of the Partnership and any other matters deemed appropriate by the General Partner.  Such schedules shall be for information purposes only and shall not be deemed to be part of this Agreement for any purpose whatsoever.

SECTION 10.18. Partnership Status.  The parties intend to treat the Partnership as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and no person shall take any action inconsistent with such classification.

SECTION 10.19. Effectiveness.  This Agreement shall become effective upon the Effective Time and prior to such time this Agreement shall have no force or effect and the Original Agreement, as may be amended other than pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect and shall continue to constitute the limited partnership agreement of the Partnership until the Effective Time.
