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. In
the event the General Partner shall determine that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the
Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto (including, without limitation, debits or

assumed by the Partnership or the Partners), are computed in order to comply with such Regulations,
the General Partner may make such modification. The General Partner also shall (i) make any
adjustments that are necessary or appropriate to maintain equality between the Capital Accounts of

entitled to withdraw any part of his Capital Account or to receive any distribution from the
Partnership, except as specifically provided in this Agreement. Any Partner, including any
additional or substitute Partner, who shall receive a Partnership Interest or whose Partnership
Interest shall be increased by means of a transfer to him of all or part of the Interest of another
Partner, shall have a Capital Account which reflects such transfer. Loans by any Partner to the
Partnership shall not be considered Capital Contributions and shall not increase the Capital
Account of the lending Partner.
5.9 No Additional Capital Contributions. The Limited Partners shall not be entitled or
required to contribute any capital to the Partnership in addition to the Capital Contributions
required herein except as provided by the Uniform Act or the Plan.

Partner shall, with respect to the Interest so acquired, be deemed to be a Partner of the same

Interest, shall have the right to:

(d) | continue the business of the Partnership with a substitute General Partner; and | ||
(e) | approve or disapprove the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership at one time. |

amendment of this Agreement shall affect the vested rights (including, without limitation, the
right to receive any fees, allocable share of distributions, or profits and losses hereunder) or
increase any of the obligations of the General Partner, without its prior written consent, and no
amendment shall increase the liability of any Limited Partner or in any way reduce a Partner’s
allocable share of assets, distributions, profits or losses hereunder without his written consent.
The exercise of any rights provided for in subparagraphs (a) through (e) of this Section 5.14 shall
each be subject to the prior receipt by the General Partner of an opinion of counsel acting on
behalf of the Limited Partners to the effect that the exercise of the rights sought to be exercised
under the circumstances
-6-
then in question (i) will not be deemed taking part in the control of the business of the
Partnership so as to result in the loss of any Limited Partner’s limited liability and (ii) will
not result in the Partnership not being considered a partnership for federal income tax purposes.

Partner in prior years under this Section 9.1(a)(i), pro
rata in proportion to the
respective amounts of such excess;

over (B) the aggregate amount of income allocated to such Partner in prior years
under this Section 9.1(b)(i), pro rata in proportion to the respective amounts of

(iv) Then, to each Partner up to an amount of income equal to the excess, if
any, of (A) the aggregate amount of loss allocated to such Partner in prior years

(v) Then, to the Partners in proportion to their Residual Percentages.
9.2 Allocation of Gain or Loss on Liquidation. Net gain or net loss realized by the
Partnership upon the sale of all or substantially all of its assets or otherwise in connection with
the dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership shall be allocated to the Partners (after
allocating to them (i) all other net income or net losses of the Partnership for the then current
year in accordance with Section 9.1 hereof and (ii) any items allocable under Section 9.4 or 9.5
hereof (including in connection with such sale), in such amounts that to the extent possible the
respective balances of their capital accounts shall equal, or be in proportion to, the amounts to
be distributed to them under Section 10.2. Not-withstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, all distributions shall be made in proportion to the positive balances in the Partners’
Capital Accounts after taking into account all allocations of net income or net loss pursuant to
this Section 9.2.
9.3
Cost Recovery, Depreciation and LIHC Recapture. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Sections 9.1 and 9.2 above, if any item to be allocated pursuant thereto includes gain to be
treated by the Partnership as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes because it is
attributable to the recapture of depreciation or cost recovery deductions or to LIHC Recapture,
such ordinary income shall be allocated to the Partners in the same proportion as such deductions
or credits were allocated.
9.4 Qualified Income Offset. Notwithstanding anything in this Article IX to the contrary, in
the event any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions
described in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) which cause a deficit or
increase the deficit in the Partner’s Capital Account, items of Partnership gross income and gain
shall be allocated to such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit in
its Capital Account as quickly as possible; provided, however, that for this purpose, a Partner’s
Capital Account shall be increased by its share of the Partnership minimum gain as of the end of
the Partnership taxable year. It is the intention of the Partners that this Section 9.4 be treated
as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).
9.5 Minimum Gain.
(a) Nonrecourse
Deductions. Nonrecourse deductions of the Partnership shall be determined as
provided in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(c). Partner nonrecourse deductions shall be determined as
provided in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(2), and shall be allocated to the Partner that
-14-
bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the debt to which such partner nonrecourse
deduction is attributable.
(b) Distributions of Nonrecourse Financing Proceeds. If the Partnership makes a distribution
to the Partners that is allocable to the proceeds of any nonrecourse liability of the Partnership,
or of any other partnership in which the Partnership has an interest, such distribution shall be
allocable to an increase in Partnership minimum gain as provided in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(h)
and Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(6).
(c) Minimum Gain. The amount of Partnership minimum gain shall be determined as provided in
Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(d) and Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(3). Each Partner’s share of
Partnership minimum gain shall be determined as provided in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(g) and
Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(5).
(d) Minimum
Gain Chargeback. If there is a net decrease in Partnership minimum gain for a
Partnership tax year, the Partners shall be allocated items of Partnership income and gain as
provided in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(f). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent such net
decrease is attributable to a partner nonrecourse debt, then any Partner with a share of the
minimum gain attributable to such debt shall be allocated items of income and gain as provided in
Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(4).
(e) Operating Partnerships. Consistent with the provisions of paragraphs (a) through (d)
hereof, the rules of Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(k) shall apply in allocating minimum gain items
attributable to the Operating Partnerships.
(f) General. The General Partner, with the advice of the Partnership’s accountants, shall
make all determinations necessary in connection with the implementation of the foregoing minimum
gain provisions.
9.6 Regulatory Allocations. The allocations set forth in Sections 9.4 and 9.5 (the
“Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Treas. Reg.
§§ 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. The Regulatory Allocations might not be consistent with the
manner in which the Partners intend to divide Partnership distributions. Accordingly, the General
Partner is hereby authorized to allocate other items of income, gain, loss, and deduction among the
Partners so as, to the extent possible, to prevent the Regulatory Allocations from causing the
manner in which Partnership distributions will be divided among the Partners pursuant to this
Agreement to be different from the intended division of Partnership distributions. In general, the
Partners anticipate that this will be accomplished by specially allocating other items of
Partnership income, gain, loss, and deduction among the Partners so that, to the extent possible,
the net amount of the Regulatory Allocations and such other items allocated to each Partner shall
be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to such Partner if the Regulatory
Allocations had not occurred.
9.7 Credits. Credits arising in any taxable year of the Partnership shall be allocated to the
Partners in proportion to the respective amounts of income or loss allocated to them for such year.
9.8 Allocation of Nonrecourse Liabilities. For purposes of Treas. Reg. § 1.752-3(a),
the Partners’ interests in the profits of the Partnership shall equal their respective Interests in
Capital.
-15-
9.9 Distributions In Kind. All distributions of Partnership property in kind shall be valued
at their fair market value as of the date of distribution, and the amount of any gain or loss that
would be realized by the Partnership if it were to sell such property at such fair market value
shall be allocated to the Partners under Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 hereof, as applicable.
9.10 Allocations to Partners with Varying Interests. If, during any taxable year there is a
change in any Partner’s Interest in Capital of the Partnership, each Partner’s distributive share
of Partnership Tax Items shall be determined by (i) allocating such Tax Items to the appropriate
monthly period and (ii) allocating the Tax Items attributable to each such period to the Partners
in accordance with their respective Interests in Capital of the Partnership as of the beginning of
each such period.
9.11 Special Provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions in this Article IX:
(a) Unless the General Partner in its sole discretion determines otherwise, a
Defaulting Limited Partner will not be allocated any Tax Items in respect of his Limited
Partner interest from and after the first day of the calendar month during which his
default occurs until such time as said default is cured; and until such default is cured,
the allocation of such Tax Items shall be made to the other Partners in proportion to their
respective Interests in Capital, and shall be treated as having been made to such other
Partners under the applicable provision of Section 9.1 or 9.2.
(b) If there is one or more Elector under Section 17.4 hereof, then notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary all items of income, loss and credit shall be
allocated to the Electors as provided in Section 17.4 and the difference between such
allocation and the amount otherwise allocable to the Electors under this Article IX shall
be allocated to the other Partners in proportion to their respective Interests in Capital
(subject to Section 9.11(a) hereof), and shall be treated as having been made to such other
Partners under the applicable provision of Section 9.1 or 9.2.
(c) If any Partnership expenditure treated as a deduction on the Partnerships’ federal
income tax return is disallowed as in deduction and treated as a distribution pursuant to
Section 731(a) of the Code, there shall be a special allocation of gross income to the
Partner deemed to have received such distribution equal to the amount of such distribution.
(d) To the extent that any difference between the tax basis and agreed book value of
any item of Partnership property result in a variation between the depreciation,
amortization, and gain or loss as computed for book purpose and tax reporting purposes with
respect to such property, the Capital Accounts of the Partners shall reflect only the
adjustments made for book purposes and the variation in such items for tax purposes shall
be allocated among the Partners in a manner that takes into account the variation between
the adjusted tax basis of Partnership property and its agreed book value in the same manner
as variations between the adjusted tax basis and fair market value of property contributed
to the Partnership are taken into account in determining the Partners’ shares of Tax Items
under Section 704(c) of the Code.
