provided, however, that this Article 3.00 and Articles 6.00 and 8.00 may not be
amended except with the unanimous consent of all Limited Partners entitled to
vote and further provided that no amendment that adversely affects the rights

covenants, restrictions or provisions if such additions or deletions are

herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision

of any Limited Partner.

amendments to this Agreement within ten (10) days of the effective date of the
amendment.

Partners of the Option to Purchase.
(k) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the
Option to Purchase is properly exercised in
accordance with all of the terms of this Article 11 and a

accordance herewith, then the Units not so tendered shall
be cancelled and cease to be outstanding for all purposes
of this Agreement and the holder thereof shall not be
entitled to any assets of the Partnership or interest
therein, except to the extent of the Option Exercise Price.
