Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). This Section 4.3.2 is intended to comply with the “minimum gain chargeback” requirement of that Section of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

4.3.3 Qualified Income Offset. If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocation or distributions described in clauses (4), (5) or (6) of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), items of the Company income shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate his, her, or its Adjusted Capital Account Deficit created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible; provided, however, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 4.3.3 shall be made only if, and to the extent that, such Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in Article 4 tentatively have been made as if this Section 4.3.3 were not in this Agreement. This Section 4.3.3 is intended to constitute a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(3) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

4.3.4 Nonrecourse Deductions; Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with their Interests. Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears (or is deemed to bear) the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(2).

4.3.5 Limitation on Allocation of Losses. To the extent that Net Losses or items of loss or deduction otherwise allocable to a Member hereunder would cause such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as of the end of the taxable year to which such Net Losses, or items of loss or deduction, relate (after taking into account the allocation of all items of income and gain for such taxable period), such Net Losses, or items of loss or deduction, shall not be allocated to such Member and instead shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with Section 4.2 as if such Member were not a Member.

4.3.6 Regulatory Allocations. Any allocations required to be made pursuant to Section 4.3.1 through Section 4.3.5 (the “Regulatory Allocations”) (other than allocations, the effects of which are likely to be offset in the future by other special allocations) shall be taken into account, to the extent permitted by the Treasury Regulations, in computing subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to Section 4.2 so that the net amount of any items so allocated and all other items allocated to each Member shall, to the extent possible, be equal to the amount that would have been allocated to each Member pursuant to Section 4.2 had such Regulatory Allocations under this Section 4.3 not occurred.

- 12 -

4.3.7 Liquidation. It is intended that prior to a distribution of the proceeds from a liquidation of the Company, the positive Capital Account balance of each Member shall be equal to the amount that such Member is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 11.4.3. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 4, to the extent permissible under Sections 704(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, Net Profits and Net Losses and, if necessary, items of gross income and gross deductions, of the Company for the year of liquidation of the Company (or, if earlier, the year in which all or substantially all of the Company’s assets are sold, transferred or disposed of) shall be allocated among the Members so as to bring the positive Capital Account balance of each Member as close as possible to the amount that such Member would receive if the Company were liquidated and all the proceeds were distributed in accordance with Section 11.4.3.

4.4 Tax Matters.

4.4.1 For federal income tax purposes, except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.4, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as its corresponding item of book income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to this Article 4.

4.4.2 In accordance with Sections 704(b) and 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any Company asset contributed (or deemed contributed) to the capital of the Company shall, solely for federal income tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such Company asset for federal income tax purposes and its Book Basis upon its contribution (or deemed contribution). If the Book Basis of any Company asset is adjusted, subsequent allocations of taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such Company asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such Company asset for federal income tax purposes and the Book Basis of such Company asset in the manner prescribed under Code Sections 704(b) and 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. Any elections or decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Manager.

4.4.3 If a Member acquires an Interest, redeems all or a portion of his, her or its Interest or transfers an Interest during a taxable year, the Net Profits or Net Losses (and other items referred to in Sections 4.2 or 4.3) attributable to such Interest for such taxable year shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee by closing the books of the Company as of the date of the transfer, or by any other method permitted under Section 706 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder that is selected by the Members, provided, that in any event Net Profits or Net Losses (and other items referred to in Sections 4.2 or 4.3) attributable to any extraordinary non-recurring items of the Company shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee by closing the books of the Company with respect to such items.

4.4.4 The provisions of this Article 4 (and other related provisions in this Agreement) pertaining to the allocation of items of Company income, gain, loss, deductions, and credits shall be interpreted consistently with the Treasury Regulations, and to the extent unintentionally inconsistent with such Treasury Regulations, shall be deemed to be modified to the extent necessary to make such provisions consistent with the Treasury Regulations.

DISTRIBUTIONS

5.1 Distributions of Available Cash and Net Capital Proceeds.

5.1.1 To the extent the Manager determines that there is Available Cash for distribution, such Available Cash shall be distributed quarterly by the Company to the Members in the following order and priority:

(a) First, to the Preferred Member until the Preferred Member has received the Priority Return (including any accrued but unpaid Priority Return amount);

(b) Second, 75% to the Preferred Member and 25% to the Common Member, pari passu, until the Preferred Member has received aggregate distributions under this Section 5.1 in an amount sufficient to achieve a return on investment equal to seven and one-half percent (7.5%) per annum return, compounded annually, on the Preferred Equity Investment as of the date of calculation; and

5.1.2 To the extent the Manager determines that there are Net Capital Proceeds available for distribution, such Net Capital Proceeds shall be distributed by the Company to the Members in the following order and priority:

(a) First, 100% to the Preferred Member until the Preferred Equity Balance has been reduced to Zero Dollars ($0.00);

(b) Second, 75% to the Preferred Member and 25% to the Common Member, pari passu, until a Redemption in Full has occurred; and

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent sufficient funds exist, the Manager shall make distributions of Net Capital Proceeds within thirty (30) days of receipt.

5.2 Effect of Transfers. Distributions with respect to an Interest shall be made to the Person reflected on the books and records of the Company as owning an Interest on the date of the distribution.

5.3 Offset of Distributions. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Members agree that the Company is expressly permitted to offset all or any portion of the distributions payable to Preferred Member hereunder against, and to the extent of, any post-closing obligations of Preferred Member to the Company pursuant to the express terms of the Purchase Agreement, which are undisputed and remain unsatisfied following the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and said funds will be deemed to have been first distributed to Preferred Member and immediately paid by Preferred Member to the Company toward the outstanding balance of the unsatisfied post-closing obligations of Preferred Member under the Purchase Agreement. For purpose of clarity, if the Preferred Member disputes any claim that the Preferred Member has not satisfied its post-closing obligations under the Purchase Agreement, there shall be no right of offset until such disputed item is finally resolved, either by agreement between the parties or a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction.

The Partnership Representative shall have authority, at the Partnership Representative’s sole discretion, to take any action that may be taken by a “partnership representative” under the Code; provided, however, that for each taxable year for which the Company qualifies to elect to have the Partnership Audit Rules not apply, the Partnership Representative shall cause the Company to do so, and shall notify each Member of such election. In particular, and not by way of limitation, the Partnership Representative is authorized to represent the Company, at the Company’s expense, in connection with all examinations of the Company’s affairs by tax authorities, including administrative and judicial proceedings, and to expend Company funds for professional services and costs associated therewith. Any direct or indirect costs and expenses incurred by the Partnership Representative, acting in his, her or its capacity as such, shall be deemed costs and expenses of the Company, and the Company shall reimburse the Partnership Representative for such amounts. Notwithstanding the authority granted to a partnership representative under the Code or any other provision in this Agreement, the Partnership Representative (i) shall not take any material action as Partnership Representative, including, without limitation, making any election permitted under the Partnership Audit Rules and settling or compromising any matter raised by the Internal Revenue Service, without the approval of each Member who would be materially and adversely affected, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (ii) shall keep the other Members informed of, and give them the opportunity to participate in, all such matters.

10.3.4 Each Member will provide such cooperation and assistance, including executing and filing forms or other statements and providing information about the Member, as is reasonably requested by the Partnership Representative, to enable the Company to satisfy any applicable tax reporting or compliance requirements, to make any tax election or to qualify for an exception from or reduced rate of tax or other tax benefit or be relieved of liability for any tax regardless of whether such requirement, tax benefit or tax liability existed on the date such Member was admitted to the Company. If a Member fails to provide any such forms, statements, or other information requested by the Partnership Representative, such Member will be required to indemnify the Company for the share of any tax deficiency paid or payable by the Company that is due to such failure (as reasonably determined by the Manager). The obligations set forth in this Section 10.3.4 will survive such Member’s ceasing to be a Member in the Company and/or the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Company.

10.4 Reports.

10.4.1 Within 120 days following the end of each Fiscal Year (subject to reasonable delays in the event of the late receipt of any necessary financial statements or information), the Company shall provide each Member with unaudited financial statements of the Company for such Fiscal Year.

If the Company elects to extend the due date for reporting tax information to Members, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Members with estimates of applicable tax reporting information for each fiscal year by the original due date for such information. Subject to Section 13.23 hereof and Section 18-305 of the Act, the Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver or otherwise make available to a Member such other information as is reasonably requested by such Member; provided, that such information may be obtained by the Manager without unreasonable expense or burden and is for purposes reasonably related to such Member’s interest as a Member.

ARTICLE 12
INDEMNIFICATION OF MEMBERS, THE MANAGER
AND THEIR AFFILIATES

12.1 Indemnification of the Members. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Members and their respective members, officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates (each, an “Indemnitee”) from and against any Losses arising out of or incidental to the Business of the Company, regardless of whether the Indemnitee continues to be a Member, officer, director, employee, agent or Affiliate of the Member at the time any such liability or expense is paid or incurred, but only to the extent (i) the Indemnitee’s conduct did not constitute fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence, and (ii) the Indemnitee acted in a good faith, commercially reasonable manner. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless any Person providing any Lender Guaranties and Indemnities (each such Person, a “Loan Guarantor”) to the extent that such Loan Guarantor incurs any Losses under such Lender Guaranties and Indemnities, unless such Losses are incurred as the result of the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Loan Guarantor or its Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each Member shall indemnify and hold harmless any Loan Guarantor to the extent that such Loan Guarantor incurs any Losses under such Lender Guaranties and Indemnities as a result of such Member’s or any of its Affiliate’s fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct.

12.2 Guarantee of Company Indebtedness. No Member shall enter into (or permit any Person related to a Member to enter into) any arrangement with respect to any liability of the Company that would result in such Member (or a Person related to such Member) under Regulations Section 1.752-4(b) bearing the economic risk of loss (within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-2) with respect to such liability, unless such arrangement has been consented to and approved by all of the Members. This Section 12.2 shall not prohibit the Common Member from making any additional Capital Contributions under Section 9.1.

12.3 Expenses. To the fullest extent permitted by law, expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding that is subject to Section 12.1, shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to the final disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Company of evidence of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall be determined that such Person is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in Section 12.1.

12.4 Assets of the Company. Except to the extent any indemnification obligation arises as a result of a Member’s or its Affiliate’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct pursuant to Section 12.1, (i) any indemnification under Section 12.1 shall be satisfied solely out of the assets of the Company, and (ii) subject to the Act, no Member shall be subject to personal liability for or shall be required to fund or cause to be funded any obligation by reason of these indemnification provisions.

13.2 Cooperation of the Members. If the Preferred Member elects to exercise the Unilateral Sale Right, the Preferred Member may, but shall not be obligated to, cause the Manager to market, or engage real estate brokers to market, the Property on behalf of the Company. The Common Member, in its capacity as a member of the Company and as Manager, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate fully with the Preferred Member following the Preferred Member’s election to exercise the Unilateral Sale Right, including by providing and executing any documents necessary to authorize and consummate a sale of the Property pursuant to the Unilateral Sale Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to a sale of the Property pursuant to the Unilateral Sale Right, the Common Member, in its capacity as a member of the Company and as Manager, shall have the unilateral right to sell the Property, refinance the Company indebtedness and/or otherwise recapitalize the Property, provided, that the Net Capital Proceeds from any of the foregoing transactions shall be sufficient to provide for a Redemption in Full upon distribution of such Net Capital Proceeds in accordance with Section 5.1.2, and the Preferred Member shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate fully with any such transaction, including by providing and executing any documents necessary to authorize and consummate such sale.
