6.2.3

Execution of withdrawal. Subject to examination and approval by the investment committee, the management team shall be responsible for execution of the withdrawal.

7.	Sharing of Profits and Losses

7.1

The Partnership shall make accounting of and distribute the profits of the Partnership each fiscal year. The distributable income of the Partnership shall be distributed to the partners as soon as possible and no later than sixty (60) working days after the end of the fiscal year in which such receivables occurs.

7.2

The Partnership adopts the principle of “return before distribution” in respect of reward on performance of the General Partner. After all the partners have recovered all of their paid contributions in proportion to their paid contributions, and all the partners' net investment income accumulatively gained from the Partnership has reached the annual simple interest rate of 6%, if there is any excess income, it can be distributed according to the accrual criteria for performance reward (performance compensation).

The General Partner has the right to accrue performance compensation according to a certain percentage from the excess income. The calculation of performance compensation adopts step-by-step grading:

(1) The portion of the excess income that is less than one time of the total contribution paid by all partners (inclusive), 20% is accrued as performance compensation of the General Partner;

(2) The portion of the excess income that is more than one time of but less than two times of the total contribution paid by all partners (inclusive), 25% is accrued as performance compensation of the General Partner;

(3) The portion of the excess income that is more than two times of the total contribution paid by all partners, 30% is accrued as performance compensation of the General Partner;

The remaining portion of the excess income after the performance remuneration is accrued for the General Partner is distributed among limited partners according to the proportion of their actual paid contribution.

The “net investment income” above refers to the distributable profits received by the Partnership after all partners of the Partnership achieve the return.

7.3	The General Partner has no right to accrue the performance reward until all partners have recovered all of their paid contributions in proportion to their paid contributions and their accumulated net investment income reaches the annual simple interest rate of 6%.

7.4

Prior to the expiration of the Duration of the Partnership, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the distribution will be made in cash in principle; if the Partnership fails to make cash distributions at the time of liquidation upon termination, the General Partner has the right to decide that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the distribution will made in a non-cash manner. In the case of non-cash distribution, the General Partner shall provide necessary assistance if a partner obtains the relevant distribution and requires the General Partner to assist him in realizing the distribution. The distribution to the National Guidance Fund shall be made in cash, and the General Partner is obliged to realize the non-cash distributions that the National Guidance Fund shall receive before the cash distribution to the National Guidance Fund. Other limited partners do not assume a positive obligation for the National Guidance Fund to receive cash distribution, but must not prevent the General Partner from realizing the distributions for the National Guidance Fund.

Whether the General Partner realizes the non-cash distributions that the National Guidance Fund shall receive, or the General Partner assists the limited partners to realize the non-cash distributions that have been received, the General Partner shall, upon the principle of fairness and justice, not satisfy the requirements of either party by prejudicing the interests of the other party.

7.5	For non-cash distributions, except for assets with open market prices, the value of non-cash assets shall be assessed by an independent third-party professional body, and the results of the assessment shall be provided in writing to all partners.

7.6	Each partner shall pay taxes in accordance with laws with respect to all distributions it receives from the Partnership.
