Net Losses of the Company for each Fiscal Year (or part thereof) shall be allocated to the Members at the end of such Fiscal Year (or part thereof) in the following order of priority:

5.1.1 First Tier Losses. First, to those Members with positive balances in their Capital Accounts in amounts equal to their respective Capital Account balances at the end of such Fiscal Year (or part thereof); provided, however, if the amount of Net Losses to be allocated is less than the sum of the Capital Account balances of all of the Members having positive Capital Account balances then such Net Losses shall be allocated to the Members in such proportions and in such amounts as would result in the Capital Account balance of each Member equaling, as nearly as possible, such Member’s share of the then Company Capital determined by calculating the amount each Member would receive if an amount equal to the Company Capital were distributed to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.1 or 7.2, as applicable; and

5.1.2 Second Tier Losses. Thereafter, to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.

If there are insufficient Net Losses to be allocated in a Fiscal Year (or part thereof) in order to cause the Capital Account balance of each Member to equal such Member’s share of the then Company Capital under Section 5.1.1, then items of gross income and gross deduction for such Fiscal Year (or part thereof) shall be allocated to the Members in order to cause the Capital Account balance of each Member at the end of such Fiscal Year (or part thereof) to equal such Member’s share of the then Company Capital determined by calculating the amount each Member would receive if an amount equal to the Company Capital were distributed to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Sections 7.1 or 7.2, as applicable.

5.2 Net Profits

Net Profits of the Company for each Fiscal Year (or part thereof) shall be allocated to the Members at the end of such Fiscal Year (or part thereof) in the following order of priority:

5.2.1 First Tier Profits. First, to the Members in proportion to, and to the extent of, the negative balance, if any, standing in each such Member’s Capital Account at the end of such Fiscal Year (or part thereof); and

5.2.2 Second Tier Profits. Thereafter, to the Members in such proportions and in such amounts, as would result, as closely as possible, in the Capital Account balance of each Member at the end of such Fiscal Year (or part thereof) equaling, as nearly as possible, such Member’s share of the then Company Capital determined by calculating the amount each Member would receive if an amount equal to the Company Capital were distributed to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Sections 7.1 or 7.2, as applicable.

If there are insufficient Net Profits to be allocated in a Fiscal Year (or part thereof) in order to cause the Capital Account balance of each Member to equal such Member’s share of the

then Company Capital under Section 5.2.2, then items of gross income and gross deduction for such Fiscal Year (or part thereof) shall be allocated to the Members in order to cause the Capital Account balance of each Member at the end of such Fiscal Year (or part thereof) to equal such Member’s share of the then Company Capital determined by calculating the amount each Member would receive if an amount equal to the Company Capital were distributed to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Sections 7.1 or 7.2, as applicable.

5.3 Special Allocations

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no Net Losses or item of expense, loss or deduction shall be allocated to any Member to the extent such an allocation would cause or increase a deficit balance standing in such Member’s Adjusted Capital Account and any such Net Losses shall instead be allocated to the Members in proportion to their respective “interests” in the Company as determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b). In addition, items of income and gain shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with and to the extent required by the qualified income offset provisions set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). Notwithstanding any other provision in this Article 5, (a) any and all “Company nonrecourse deductions” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) of the Company for any Fiscal Year or other period shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests; (b) any and all “partner nonrecourse deductions” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(2)) attributable to any “partner nonrecourse debt” (as such term is defined in Treasury Section 1.704-2(b)(4)) shall be allocated to the Member that bears the “economic risk of loss” (as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-2) for such “partner nonrecourse debt” in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(1); (c) each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in accordance with the Company minimum gain chargeback requirements set forth in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f) and 1.704-2(g); and (iv) each Member with a share of the minimum gain attributable to any “partner nonrecourse debt” shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in accordance with the partner minimum gain chargeback requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(i)(5). For purposes of determining the Member’s respective shares of the Company’s “excess nonrecourse liabilities” pursuant to Code Section 752 and Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-3(a)(3), each Member’s Interest in Company profits shall be deemed to be equal to such Member’s Percentage Interest.

5.4 Curative Allocations

The allocations set forth in Section 5.3 (“Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this Section 5.4. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 5 (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Manager is hereby authorized to make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Member’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of this Agreement, and all Company

items were allocated pursuant to Sections 5.1 and 5.2. In exercising its discretion under this Section 5.4, the Manager shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Section 5.3 which, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made under the provisions of Section 5.3.

5.5 Differing Tax Basis; Tax Allocation

The Manager shall cause depreciation and/or cost recovery deductions and gain or loss with respect to each item of property treated as contributed to the capital of the Company to be allocated among the Members for federal income tax purposes in accordance with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. The Manager shall not select any deprecation method with respect to any contributed property without the written consent of the Investor Member.

5.6 Interpretation of Allocations

The Members intend (a) that the allocation provisions contained in this Article 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement be interpreted so that the final Capital Account balances of the Members are equal to the distributions to be made pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.2, as applicable, after reflecting any minimum gain and partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain, and (b) that the allocation provisions contained in this Article 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement be applied and amended by the Tax Matters Partner, if and to the extent necessary to produce such result even if any such application or amendment requires (i) first, special allocations of gross income and/or gross deductions for the current Fiscal Year (or if necessary, any other period), and (ii) second, if necessary, the amendment of prior tax returns for the Company.

Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary in Section 8.5.1 hereof, following the delivery of a Sale Request Notice by Investor Member to Manager Member, Manager Member may, during the ninety (90) day period (the “Consideration Period”) following Manager Member’s receipt of a Sale Request Notice, notify Investor Member in writing (the “Counter Notice”) that, in lieu of the Subject Properties being sold to a third party, Manager Member has elected to (a) if the Sales Request Notice is for all the Properties, purchase the entire Interest owned by Investor Member for the amount that Investor Member would receive upon liquidation of the Company (and the Subtier Entities) assuming that the Properties were sold for a purchase price equal to the Sales Price (and taking into consideration all prorations and adjustments that would be applicable to an outright sale of the Properties), or (b) if the Sales Request Notice is for less than all the Properties, purchase the Subject Properties for the Sales Price set forth in the Sale Request Notice (with the purchase price payable by Manager Member under clause (a) or clause (b) above, as applicable, being hereinafter referred to as the “Member Interest Purchase Price”), which Counter Notice must, to be effective, be accompanied by (a) a non refundable (but applicable to the Member Interest Purchase Price) cash deposit (the “Member Deposit”) made to Investor Member equal to five percent (5%) of the Sales Price, and (b) a sales agreement (“Member Purchase Agreement”) to be executed by Investor Member and Manager Member if the Sales Request Notice is for all the Properties, and by the Company and Manager Member if the Sales Request Notice is for less than all the Properties, containing such terms to which such parties may agree that are consistent with the provisions of this Section 8.5.2 and that provide for the transfer of Investor Member’s Interest in the Company to Manager Member or the transfer of the Subject Properties to Manager Member, as applicable, within ninety (90) days following the delivery of the Counter Notice to Investor Member free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and similar claims. Manager Member and Investor Member (or the Company and Manager Member, as applicable) shall execute the Member Purchase Agreement within ten (10) business days after Manager Member’s delivery of the Counter Notice. Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary herein, any Counter Notice delivered by Manager Member hereunder shall be considered void and ineffective if the Member Purchase Agreement is not executed by the appropriate parties within ten (10) business days following Manager Member’s delivery of a Counter Notice. If, after the delivery of a Counter Notice, Manager Member shall fail to make payment of the Member Interest Purchase Price when and as provided in the Member Purchase Agreement or otherwise default on its obligations under the Member Purchase Agreement, Investor Member shall have the right to terminate the Member Purchase Agreement and retain the Member Deposit as liquidated damages, and the Member Purchase Agreement shall so provide. Following any such termination of the Member Purchase Agreement, Manager Member shall no longer have any rights under the Counter Notice and Investor Member shall have the right to cause the Company to sell the Subject Properties to a bona-fide third party purchaser on such terms (including the sales price) as Investor Member may elect (in its sole and absolute discretion) without Manager Member’s consent or approval; the Manager Member shall cooperate with Investor Manager in connection with the sale of the Subject Properties as provided in the fourth and fifth sentences appearing in Section 8.5.1.

Manager Member as Manager and replace itself or such other Person as Investor Member shall determine (in Investor Member’s sole and absolute discretion) as Manager following (a) any Transfer by Manager Member of its Interest or any portion thereof that is not expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement and that is not (by operation of law or otherwise) deemed void in accordance with the provision of Section 8.2.1(b) hereof and (b) delivery of written notice by Investor Member to Manager Member that Investor Member has elected to replace Manager Member as Manager as provided in clause (a) above; such replacement shall be automatic and shall be effective upon delivery by Investor Member of written notice to Manager Member.

Notwithstanding any attempted transfer of a Member’s Interest in the Company in violation of this Agreement, the transferee shall have no right to participate in the management of the business and affairs of the Company or to become a Member, and such transferee shall only be entitled to receive the share of profits or other compensation by way of income and the return of Capital Contributions to which the transferor of such Economic Interest in the Company would otherwise be entitled.
