In no event shall the Limited Partner’s personal representative become a substituted limited partner, except in accordance with Sections 7.3 and 8.3(a).

LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

([ ] L.P.)

8.3 CONTINUATION OF PARTNERSHIP.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, upon the occurrence of any event that would result in there being no limited partner in the Partnership, the Partnership shall not dissolve and the General Partner or the personal representative of the last remaining Limited Partner shall agree in writing to continue the business of the Partnership and to the admission of the personal representative of the Limited Partner or its nominee or designee to the Partnership as a limited partner, effective as of the occurrence of the event that caused the last Limited Partner to cease to be a limited partner. Such remaining Limited Partner is hereby authorized to continue the business of the Partnership without dissolution.

(b) Upon the occurrence of any event of withdrawal with respect to the General Partner, the business of the Partnership will be continued if, within 90 calendar days, the Limited Partner elects to continue the business of the Partnership and designates a Person to be the General Partner of the Partnership upon terms consented to the Limited Partner (effective as of the occurrence of the event of withdrawal with respect to the General Partner). If the business of the Partnership is continued, the interest of the General Partner that has withdrawn will be converted to that of a Limited Partner unless the General Partner remains the General Partner. If the Limited Partner fails to continue the Partnership’s business as provided in this subsection, the Partnership will be liquidated under Section 8.5, subject, however, to Sections 5.3, 8.2(a) and 8.7.

8.4 WAIVER. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Partner waives any right it might have to agree in writing to dissolve the Partnership upon the Bankruptcy of a Partner or the occurrence of an event that causes a Partner to cease to be a partner of the Partnership.

8.5 LIQUIDATION. Subject to Section 8.7, upon the happening of any of the events specified in Section 8.1 and, if applicable, the failure to continue the business of the Partnership under Section 8.3, the General Partner (or, in the event dissolution is caused by the withdrawal or retirement from the Partnership of the General Partner, a liquidator selected by the Limited Partner) shall be the liquidator of the Partnership (the “Liquidator”). The Liquidator shall as promptly as possible wind up the affairs of the Partnership to the extent necessary to satisfy the debts and obligations of the Partnership. Until final distribution, the Liquidator shall continue to operate the Partnership properties subject to the provisions of this Agreement and, in that regard, shall have and may exercise, without further authorization or consent of any of the Partners, all the powers conferred upon the General Partner under the terms of this Agreement. The steps to be accomplished by the Liquidator are as follows:

LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

([ ] L.P.)

(a) The Liquidator shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Partnership assets all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Partnership (including all expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of an escrow fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the Liquidator may reasonably determine or the assumption by a financially responsible and solvent Person of the Partnership’s obligation to pay and discharge such debts, liabilities and obligations); and

(b) The Liquidator shall distribute all remaining assets of the Partnership to the Partners in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.6.

8.6 LIQUIDATING DISTRIBUTIONS TO PARTNERS.

(a) Liquidating distributions pursuant to Section 8.5(b) shall be made to the Partners pro rata in accordance with the positive balances in their respective capital accounts.

(b) Liquidating distributions may be made in cash or in the form of property. In the event that any property is distributed to the Partners in kind pursuant to this Section, appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Partners’ capital accounts to take account of any variation between the adjusted tax basis and the fair market value of such property at the time of distribution.

(c) Upon the liquidation of a Partner’s Interest, liquidating distributions with respect thereto shall be made on or before the later of the end of the Partnership’s taxable year (determined without regard to section 706(c)(2)(A) of the Code) in which such liquidation occurs or the 90th day after the date of such liquidation. For purposes of this subsection, a liquidation of a Partner’s Interest shall be deemed to occur upon the earlier of (1) the date upon which the Partnership is terminated pursuant to section 708(b)(1) of the Code, (2) the date upon which the Partnership ceases to be a going concern or (3) the date upon which there is a liquidation of the Partner’s Interest within the meaning of section 761(d) of the Code.

(d) If the Partnership makes distributions in kind of the Partnership’s property that secures indebtedness, each of the Partners receiving the distribution of property subject to the indebtedness will be severally liable (as among each other, but not for the benefit of others) for its proportionate share of the indebtedness; provided, however, that (1) no Partner will be deemed to have assumed any liability on any indebtedness secured by property distributed to any Partner for which the Partner is not liable under the terms of the instrument creating the indebtedness and (2) the liability of each Partners to the other Partners for any indebtedness secured by property distributed to such Partner will be limited to the value of its interest in the property. Indebtedness secured by property distributed to Partners in kind need not be discharged out of the proceeds of the liquidation of the Partnership.

LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

([ ] L.P.)

8.7 CERTIFICATE OF CANCELLATION. On completion of the liquidating distributions as provided herein, the Partnership shall be considered terminated, and the Liquidator shall file a Certificate of Cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and shall take such other actions as may be necessary, appropriate or desirable to terminate the Partnership. The establishment of any reserves in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.5 shall not have the effect of extending the term of the Partnership, but any such reserve shall be distributed in the manner provided in Section 8.6 upon expiration of the need for the reserve.

9.7 BENEFITS OF AGREEMENT; NO THIRD PARTY RIGHTS. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any creditor of the Partnership or by any creditor of a Partner except for the provisions of Sections 2.4, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.6, 9.2 and 9.7 and Articles VII and VIII (such provisions being referred to herein as the “Third Party Benefit Provisions”). Nothing in this Agreement other than the Third Party Benefit Provisions shall be deemed to create any right in any Person (other than the Partners) not a party hereto, and this Agreement shall not be construed in any respect to be a contract in whole or in part for the benefit of any Person not a party hereto (except for the Third Party Benefit Provisions).

9.8 LIMITED LIABILITY. Except as otherwise expressly provided by the Act, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Partnership, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be the debts, obligations and liabilities solely of the Partnership, and no Partner shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Partnership solely by reason of being a Partner.

9.9 WAIVER OF RIGHT OF PARTITION AND DISSOLUTION. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Partner hereby irrevocably waives any right or power that such Person might have to cause the Partnership or any of its assets to be partitioned, to cause the appointment of a receiver for all or any portion of the assets of the Partnership, to compel any sale of all or any portion of the assets of the Partnership pursuant to any applicable law or to file a complaint or to institute any proceeding at law or in equity to cause the dissolution, liquidation, winding up or termination of the Partnership. The Partners shall not have any interest in any specific assets of the Partnership, and no Partner shall have the status of a creditor with respect to any distribution pursuant to Section 4.2. The interests of the Partners in the Partnership are personal property.
