other cost recovery deduction allowable with respect to an asset for such year
or other period for federal income tax purposes, except that if the Gross Asset
Value of an asset differs from its adjusted basis for federal income tax
purposes at the beginning of such year or other period, depreciation shall be an
amount which bears the same ratio to such beginning Gross Asset Value as the
federal income tax depreciation, amortization, or other cost recovery deduction
for such year or other period bears to such beginning adjusted tax basis;
provided, however, if the federal income tax depreciation, amortization, or
other cost recovery deduction for such year is zero, depreciation shall be

E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
21

Annual Credit Shortfall and said amount instead shall be paid to the Limited
Partner. In the event there are not sufficient funds to pay the full Annual
Credit Shortfall to the Limited Partner at the time of the next Distribution of
Net Operating Income, then the unpaid Annual Credit Shortfall shall be repaid in

Partner's Net Operating Income. In the event a Sale or Refinancing of the
Project occurs prior to repayment in full of the Annual Credit Shortfall then
the excess will be paid in accordance with Section 11.2(b). Notwithstanding, the
foregoing provisions of this Section 7.4(c) the General Partner shall not be
obligated to pay the Limited Partner or Special Limited Partner any funds if the
recapture of Tax Credits was the result of an Act of Congress, a change in the
law, or other acts beyond the control of the General Partner.
(d) In the event there is a reduction in the qualified basis of the
Project for income tax purposes following an audit by the Internal Revenue

Partner shall pay to the Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner the sum
of (1) the deficiency assessed against the Limited Partner or Special Limited
Partner as a result of the Tax Credit recapture, (2) any interest and penalties
imposed on the Limited Partner or Special Limited Partner with respect to such
deficiency, and (3) an amount sufficient to pay any tax liability owed by the
Limited Partner or Special Limited Partner resulting from the receipt of the

business or real estate appraisal. The appraiser or appraisers shall determine
the Fair Market Value of the Interest of each of the Limited Partner and the
Special Limited Partner. The decision of the appraisers (if more than one) shall
be made by the majority of such appraisers. The appraiser or appraisers shall
render a written report setting forth the Fair Market Value of such Interests,
which decision shall be rendered as expeditiously as possible by the appraiser
or appraisers and which decision shall be final and binding upon the parties.
The reasonable fees and expenses of the appraiser or appraisers shall be paid
one-half by the General Partner and one-half by the Limited Partner.
(d) The "Tax Amount" shall mean the dollar amount computed in the
following fashion:
(i) The Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner shall
be deemed to have gain in an amount equal to the difference between their
respective basis in the Project and an amount equal to the total forgiveness of
debt which would be realized by the Limited Partner and the Special Limited
Partner computed as if the Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner
abandoned their Interests in the Partnership on the date of the GP Notice. The
Tax Amount shall equal the deemed gain as computed above by a tax rate(s)
applied to such gain. The tax rate shall be the highest individual rate stated
in the Code applicable to the type of income (and if there is more than one rate
applicable because of more than one type of income, the different rates shall be
applied to the appropriate portions of such
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
36
income). The Limited Partner shall cooperate to expeditiously
determine the Tax Amount.
(e) Following determination of the purchase price, the General Partner
shall have 30 days thereafter to determine whether the General Partner will
purchase the Interests of the Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner at
the purchase price so determined. The General Partner shall exercise such right
by written notice to the Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner within
such 30- day period, and if such right is not so exercised, the option shall
lapse in its entirety.
(f) If the General Partner determines to proceed with the purchase, the
purchase price shall be paid in cash, within 90 days following the giving of the
notice required by Section 9.11(e) and, in addition, interest shall be paid on
the purchase price from the date of the GP Notice, payable with the purchase
price, and calculated at the rate of interest set forth in Section 6.3 hereof.
ARTICLE X
ALLOCATIONS OF INCOME, LOSSES AND CREDITS
Section 10.1 General. All items includable in the calculation of Income
or Loss not arising from a Sale or Refinancing, and all Tax Credits, shall be
allocated 98.99% to the Limited Partner, 0.01% to the Special Limited Partner
and 1% to the General Partner.
Section 10.2 Allocations From Sale or Refinancing. All
Income and Losses arising from a Sale or Refinancing shall be
allocated between the Partners as follows:
(a) As to Income:
(1) first, an amount of Income equal to the aggregate negative
balances (if any) in the Capital Accounts of all Partners having negative
Capital Accounts (prior to taking into account the Sale or Refinancing and the
Distribution of the related Sale or Refinancing Proceeds, but after giving
effect to Distributions of Net Operating Income and allocations of other Income
and Losses pursuant to this Article X up to the date of the Sale or Refinancing)
shall be allocated to such Partners in proportion to their negative Capital
Account balances until all such Capital Accounts shall have zero balances;
(2) second, an amount of Income sufficient to increase the
Limited Partner's positive Capital Account balance to its Capital Contribution
and to increase the Special Limited Partner's positive Capital Account balance
to an amount equal to its Capital
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
37
Contribution, shall be allocated to the Limited Partner and the
Special Limited Partner, respectively;
(3) third, an amount of Income sufficient to increase the
General Partner's positive Capital Account balance to an amount equal to its
Capital Contribution; and
(4) the balance, if any, of such Income shall be allocated 50%
to the Limited Partner and 50% to the General Partner.
(b) As to Losses:
(1) an amount of Losses equal to the aggregate positive
balances (if any) in the Capital Accounts of all Partners having positive
Capital Accounts (prior to taking into account the Sale or Refinancing and the
Distribution of the related Sale or Refinancing Proceeds, but after giving
effect to Distributions of Net Operating Income and allocations of Income and
Losses pursuant to Section 10.1 up to the date of the Sale or Refinancing) shall
be allocated to such Partners in proportion to their positive Capital Account
balances until all such Capital Accounts shall have zero balances; and
(2) the balance of any such Losses shall be allocated 98.99%
to the Limited Partner, 0.01% to the Special Limited Partner and 1% to the
General Partner.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 10.2(a) and
(b), in no event shall any Losses be allocated to the Limited Partner or the
Special Limited Partner if and to the extent that such allocation would create
or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for the Limited Partner or the
Special Limited Partner. In the event an allocation of 98.99% or 0.01% of each
item includable in the calculation of Income or Loss not arising from a Sale or
Refinancing, would create or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for
the Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, respectively, then so much
of the items of deduction other than projected depreciation shall be allocated
to the General Partner instead of the Limited Partner or the Special Limited
Partner as is necessary to allow the Limited Partner or the Special Limited
Partner to be allocated 98.99% and 0.01%, respectively, of the items of Income
and Project depreciation without creating or increasing an Adjusted Capital
Account Deficit for the Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, it being
the intent of the parties that the Limited Partner and the Special Limited
Partner always shall be allocated 98.99% and 0.01%, respectively, of the items
of Income not arising from a Sale or Refinancing and 98.99% and 0.01%,
respectively, of the Project depreciation.
Section 10.3 Special Allocations. The following special
allocations shall be made in the following order.
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
38
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Treasury
Regulations, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article X, if there is
a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Partnership fiscal year,
each Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain
for such fiscal year (and, if necessary, subsequent fiscal years) in an amount
equal to such Person's share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain,
determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704- 2(g).
Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the
respective amounts required to be allocated to each Partner pursuant thereto.
The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Section
1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. This Section
10.3(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in
Section 1.704- 2(f) of the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted
consistently therewith.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the
Treasury Regulations, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article X, if
there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to
a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any Partnership fiscal year, each Person who
has a share of the Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such
Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i)(5) of
the Treasury Regulations, shall be specially allocated items of Partnership
income and gain for such fiscal year (and, if necessary, subsequent fiscal
years) in an amount equal to such Person's share of the net decrease in Partner
Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt,
determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4).
Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the
respective amounts required to be allocated to each Partner pursuant thereto.
The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Sections
1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704- 2(j)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. This Section
10.3(b) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in
Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted
consistently therewith.
(c) In the event any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments,
allocations, or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), Section 1.704- 1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be specially
allocated to each such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate,
to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account
Deficit of such Partner as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation
pursuant to this Section 10.3(c) shall be made if and only to the extent that
such Partner would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other
allocations provided for in this Section 10.3 have been tentatively made as if
this Section 10.3(c) were not in the Agreement.
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
39
(d) In the event any Partner has a deficit Capital Account at the end
of any Partnership fiscal year which is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount
such Partner is obligated to restore, and (ii) the amount such Partner is deemed
to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Treasury
Regulations Sections 1.704- 2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Partner shall
be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in the amount of
such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this
Section 10.3(d) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Partner would
have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations
provided for in this Section 10.3 have been tentatively made as if this Section
10.3(d) and Section 10.3(c) hereof were not in the Agreement.
(e) Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be specially
allocated 98.99% to the Limited Partner, 0.01% to the Special Limited Partner
and 1% to the General Partner.
(f) Any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be
specially allocated to the Partner who bears the economic risk of loss with
respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse
Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section
1.704-2(i)(1).
(g) To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any
Partnership asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is
required, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704- 1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital
Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Partner in complete liquidation of
his interest in the Partnership, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital
Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the
basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such
gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Partners in accordance with
their interests in the Partnership in the event that Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-1 (b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Partner to whom such
distribution was made in the event that Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-
1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.
(h) To the extent the Partnership has taxable interest income with
respect to any promissory note pursuant to Section 483 or Section 1271 through
1288 of the Code:
(1) such interest income shall be specially allocated to the
Limited Partner to whom such promissory note relates; and
(2) the amount of such interest income shall be excluded from
the Capital Contributions credited to such Partner's Capital Account in
connection with payments of principal with respect to such promissory note.
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
40
(i) In the event the adjusted tax basis of any investment tax credit
property that has been placed in service by the Partnership is increased
pursuant to Code Section 50(c), such increase shall be specially allocated among
the Partners (as an item in the nature of income or gain) in the same
proportions as the investment tax credit that is recaptured with respect to such
property is shared among the Partners.
(j) Any reduction in the adjusted tax basis (or cost) of Partnership
investment tax credit property pursuant to Code Section 50(c) shall be specially
allocated among the Partners (as an item in the nature of expenses or losses) in
the same proportions as the basis (or cost) of such property is allocated
pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.46-3(f)(2)(i).
(k) Any income, gain, loss or deduction realized as a direct or
indirect result of the issuance of an interest in the Partnership by the
Partnership to a Partner (the "Issuance Items") shall be allocated among the
Partners so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such Issuance Items,
together with all other allocations under this Agreement to each Partner, shall
be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Partner
if the Issuance Items had not been realized.
(l) If any Partnership expenditure treated as a deduction on its
federal income tax return is disallowed as a 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.
(m) The allocation to the General Partner of each material item of
Partnership income, loss, deduction or credit will not be less than 1% of each
such item at all times during the existence of the Partnership.
(n) Interest deduction on the Partnership indebtedness referred to in
Section 6.3 shall be allocated 100% to the General Partner.
Section 10.4 Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in
Sections 10.2(c), 10.3(a), 10.3(b), 10.3(c), 10.3(d), 10.3(e), 10.3(f), and
10.3(g) hereof (the "Regulatory Allocations") are intended to comply with
certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the
Partners that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be
offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of
other items of Partnership income, gain, loss, or deduction pursuant to this
Section 10.4. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article X
(other than the Regulatory Allocations), with the Consent of the Special Limited
Partner, the General Partner shall make such offsetting special allocations of
Partnership income, gain,
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
41
loss, or deduction in whatever manner the General Partner, with the Consent of
the Special Limited Partner, determines appropriate so that, after such
offsetting allocations are made, each Partner's Capital Account balance is, to
the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Partner would
have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of the Agreement and all
Partnership items were allocated pursuant to Sections 10.1, 10.2(a), 10.2(b),
10.3(h), 10.3(i), 10.3(j), 10.3(k), 10.3(l), 10.3(m), 10.3(n) and 10.5. In
exercising its authority under this Section 10.4, the General Partner shall take
into account future Regulatory Allocations under Section 10.3(a) and 10.3(b)
that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations
previously made under Sections 10.3(e) and 10.3(f).
Section 10.5 Other Allocation Rules.
(a) The basis (or cost) of any Partnership investment tax credit
property shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with Treasury
Regulations Section 1.46-3(f)(2)(i). All Tax Credits (other than the investment
tax credit) shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with applicable
law. Consistent with the foregoing, the Partners intend that LIHTC will be
allocated 98.99% to the Limited Partner, 0.01% to the Special Limited Partner
and 1% to the General Partner.
(b) In the event Partnership investment tax credit property is disposed
of during any taxable year, profits for such taxable year (and, to the extent
such profits are insufficient, profits for subsequent taxable years) in an
amount equal to the excess, if any, of (1) the reduction in the adjusted tax
basis (or cost) of such property pursuant to Code Section 50(c), over (2) any
increase in the adjusted tax basis of such property pursuant to Code Section
50(c) caused by the disposition of such property, shall be excluded from the
profits allocated pursuant to Section 10.1 and Section 10.2(a) hereof and shall
instead be allocated among the Partners in proportion to their respective shares
of such excess, determined pursuant to Section 10.3(i) and 10.3(j) hereof. In
the event more than one item of such property is disposed of by the Partnership,
the foregoing sentence shall apply to such items in the order in which they are
disposed of by the Partnership, so the profits equal to the entire amount of
such excess with respect to the first such property disposed of shall be
allocated prior to any allocations with respect to the second such property
disposed of, and so forth.
(c) For purposes of determining the Income, Losses, or any other items
allocable to any period, Income, Losses, and any such other items shall be
determined on a daily, monthly, or other basis, as determined by the General
Partner with the Consent of the Special Limited Partner, using any permissible
method under Code Section 706 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
42
(d) Solely for purposes of determining a Partner's proportionate share
of the "excess nonrecourse liabilities" of the Partnership within the meaning of
Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Partners' interests in
Partnership profits are as follows: Limited Partner: 98.99%; Special Limited
Partner: 0.01%; General Partner: 1%.
(e) To the extent permitted by Section 1.704-2(h)(3) of the Treasury
Regulations, the General Partner shall endeavor to treat Distributions as having
been made from the proceeds of a Nonrecourse Liability or a Partner Nonrecourse
Debt only to the extent that such Distributions would cause or increase an
Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for any Partner who is not a General Partner.
Section 10.6 Tax Allocations: Code Section 704(c). In accordance with Code
Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and
deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the
Partnership shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Partners so
as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property
to the Partnership for federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset
Value (computed in accordance with Section 1.28(a) hereof).
In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership asset is adjusted
pursuant to Section 1.30(b) hereof, subsequent allocations of income, gain,
loss, and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any
variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax
purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Code Section
704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.
Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be
made by the General Partner with the Consent of the Special Limited Partner in
any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement.
Allocations pursuant to this Section 10.6 are solely for purposes of federal,
state, and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account
in computing, any Person's Capital Account or share of Income, Losses, other
items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.
Section 10.7 Allocation Among Limited Partners. In the event
that the Interest of the Limited Partner hereunder is at any time
held by more than one Limited Partner all items which are specifically allocated
to the Limited Partner for any month pursuant to this Article X shall be
apportioned among such Persons according to the ratio of their respective
profit-sharing interests in the Partnership at the last day of such month.
Section 10.8 Allocation Among General Partners. In the event
that the Interest of the General Partner hereunder is at any time
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
43
held by more than one General Partner all items which are specifically allocated
to the General Partner for any month pursuant to this Article X shall be
apportioned among such Persons in such percentages as may from time to time be
determined by agreement among them without amendment to this Agreement or
consent of the Limited Partner or Consent of the Special Limited Partner.
Section 10.9 Modification of Allocations. The provisions of Articles X
and XI and other provisions of this Agreement are intended to comply with
Treasury Regulations Section 1.704 and shall be interpreted and applied in a
manner consistent with such section of the Treasury Regulations. In the event
that the General Partner determines, in its sole discretion, that it is prudent
to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts of the Partners, or any debit
or credit thereto, are computed in order to comply with such section of the
Treasury Regulations, the General Partner may make such modification, but only
with the Consent of the Special Limited Partner, to the minimum extent
necessary, to effect the plan of allocations and Distributions provided for
elsewhere in this Agreement. Further, the General Partner shall make any
appropriate modifications, but only with the Consent of the Special Limited
Partner, in the event it appears that unanticipated events (e.g., the existence
of a Partnership election pursuant to Code Section 754) might otherwise cause
this Agreement not to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704.
ARTICLE XI

E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc

Section 12.4 Assignee's Rights to Allocations and Distributions. An

Special Limited Partner.
(a) An Assignee shall not have the right to become a Substitute Limited

withheld.
(b) A nonadmitted transferee of a Limited Partner's Interest or Special
Limited Partner's Interest in the Partnership shall only be entitled to receive

Section 13.3 Effects of a Withdrawal. In the event of a Withdrawal, the
entire Interest of the Withdrawing General Partner shall immediately and
automatically terminate on the effective date of such Withdrawal, and such
General Partner shall immediately cease to be a General Partner, shall have no
further right to participate in the management or operation of the Partnership
or the Project or to receive any allocations or Distributions from the
Partnership or any other funds or assets of the Partnership, except as
specifically set forth below. In the event of a Withdrawal, any or all executory
contracts, including but not limited to the Management Agreement, between the
Partnership and the Withdrawing General Partner or its Affiliates may be
terminated by the Partnership, with the Consent of the Special Limited Partner,
upon written notice to the party so terminated.
Furthermore, notwithstanding such Withdrawal, the Withdrawing General
Partner shall be and shall remain, liable as a General Partner for all
liabilities and obligations incurred by the Partnership or by the General
Partner prior to the effective date of the Withdrawal, or which may arise upon
such Withdrawal. Any remaining Partner shall have all other rights and remedies
against the Withdrawing General Partner as provided by law or under this
Agreement. Notwithstanding, the Withdrawing General Partner shall not be
responsible for any obligations which may arise following the effective date of
the Withdrawal, including any continuing guarantees the General Partner may be
responsible.
The following additional provisions shall apply in the event of a
Withdrawal.
(a) In the event of a Withdrawal which is not an Involuntary
Withdrawal, the Withdrawing General Partner shall have no further right to
receive any future allocations or Distributions from the Partnership or any
other funds or assets of the Partnership, nor shall it be entitled to receive or
to be paid by the Partnership any further payments of fees (including fees which
have been earned but are unpaid) or to be repaid any outstanding advances or
loans made by it to the Partnership or to be paid any amount for its former
Interest unless such forfeiture creates an ureasonable financial benefit to the
Partnership or Limited Partner. From and after the effective date of such
Withdrawal, the former rights of the Withdrawing General Partner to receive or
to be paid such allocations, Distributions, funds, assets, fees or repayments
shall be assigned to the other General Partner or General Partners (which may
include the Special Limited Partner), or if there is no other
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
49
general partner of the Partnership at that time, to the Special
Limited Partner.
(b) In the event of an Involuntary Withdrawal, except as provided in
Section 13.3(b)(3) below, the Withdrawing General Partner shall have no further
right to receive any future allocations or Distributions from the Partnership or
any other funds or assets of the Partnership, provided that accrued and payable
fees (i.e., fees earned but unpaid as of the date of Withdrawal) owed to the
Withdrawing General Partner, and any outstanding loans of the Withdrawing
General Partner to the Partnership, shall be paid to the Withdrawing General
Partner in the manner and at the times such fees and loans would have been paid
had the Withdrawing General Partner not Withdrawn. The Interest of the General
Partner shall be purchased as follows.
(1) If the Involuntary Withdrawal arises from removal for
cause as set forth in Section 13.2(a) hereof, the Withdrawn General Partner
shall be entitled to receive as its sole compensation for its Interest in the
Partnership an amount equal to its positive Capital Account balance determined
as of the effective date of the removal, if any, payable upon the dissolution
and termination of the Partnership after all of the Partners have been
distributed the positive balances in their Capital Accounts.
(2) If the Involuntary Withdrawal does not arise from removal
for cause under Section 13.2(a) hereof, and if the Partnership is to be
continued with one or more remaining or successor General Partner(s), the
Partnership, with the Consent of the Special Limited Partner, may, but is not
obligated to, purchase the Interest of the Withdrawing General Partner in
Partnership allocations, Distributions and capital. The purchase price of such
Interest shall be its Fair Market Value as determined by agreement between the
Withdrawing General Partner and the Special Limited Partner. The purchase price
shall be paid by the Partnership by delivering to the General Partner or its
representative the Partnership's non-interest bearing unsecured promissory note
payable, if at all, upon liquidation of the Partnership in accordance with
Section 11.2(b). The note shall also provide that the Partnership may prepay all
or any part thereof without penalty.
(3) If the Involuntary Withdrawal does not arise from removal
for cause under Section 13.2(a) hereof, and if the Partnership is to be
continued with one or more remaining or successor General Partner(s), and if the
Partnership does not purchase the Interest of the Withdrawing General Partner in
Partnership allocations, Distributions and capital, then the Withdrawing General
Partner shall retain its Interest in such items, but such Interest shall be held
as a special limited partner.
Section 13.4 Successor General Partner. Upon the occurrence
of an event giving rise to a Withdrawal of a General Partner, any
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
50
remaining General Partner, or, if there be no remaining General Partner, the
Withdrawing General Partner or its legal representative, shall promptly notify
the Special Limited Partner of such Withdrawal (the "Withdrawal Notice").
Whether or not the Withdrawal Notice shall have been sent as provided herein,
the Special Limited Partner shall have the right to become a successor General
Partner (and to become the successor managing General Partner if the Withdrawing
General Partner was previously the managing General Partner). In order to
effectuate the provisions of this Section 13.4 and the continuance of the
Partnership, the Withdrawal of a General Partner shall not be effective until
the expiration of 120 days from the date on which occurred the event giving rise
to the Withdrawal, unless the Special Limited Partner shall have elected to
become a successor General Partner as provided herein prior to expiration of
such 60-day period, whereupon the Withdrawal of the General Partner shall be
deemed effective upon the notification of all the other Partners by the Special
Limited Partner of such election.
Section 13.5 Admission of Additional or Successor General Partner. No
Person shall be admitted as an additional or successor General Partner unless
(a) such Person shall have agreed to become a General Partner by a written
instrument which shall include the acceptance and adoption of this Agreement;
(b) the Consent of the Special Limited Partner to the admission of such Person
as a substitute General Partner, which consent may be withheld in the discretion
of the Special Limited Partner, shall have been given; and (c) such Person shall
have executed and acknowledged any other instruments which the Special Limited
Partner shall reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to affect the admission
of such Person as a substitute General Partner. If the foregoing conditions are
satisfied, this Agreement shall be amended in accordance with the provisions of
the Act, and all other steps shall be taken which are reasonably necessary to
effect the Withdrawal of the Withdrawing General Partner and the substitution of
the successor General Partner. Nothing contained herein shall reduce the Limited
Partner's Interest or the Special Limited Partner's Interest in the Partnership.
Section 13.6 Transfer of Interest. Except as otherwise provided herein,
the General Partner may not Withdraw from the Partnership, or enter into any
agreement as the result of which any Person shall become interested in the
Partnership, without the Consent of the Special Limited Partner which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld.

shall be dissolved upon the expiration of its term or the earlier
occurrence of any of the following events.
(a) The effective date of the Withdrawal or removal of the General
Partner, unless (1) at the time there is at least one other General Partner

General Partner under Section 13.4 hereof) who will continue as General Partner,
or (2) within 120 days after the occurrence of any such event the Limited
Partner elects to continue the business of the Partnership.
(b) The sale of the Project and the receipt in cash of the full amount
of the proceeds of such sale.
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
56
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the
Partnership terminate prior to the expiration of its term if such termination
would result in a violation of the Mortgage or any other agreement with or rule
or regulation of Valley State Bank, to which the Partnership is subject.
Section 15.2 Return of Capital Contribution upon Dissolution. Except as
provided in Sections 7.3 and 7.4 of this Agreement, which provide for a
reduction or refund of the Limited Partner's Capital Contribution under certain
circumstances, and which shall represent the personal obligation of the General
Partner, as well as the obligation of the Partnership, each Partner shall look
solely to the assets of the Partnership for all Distributions with respect to
the Partnership (including the return of its Capital Contribution) and shall
have no recourse therefor (upon dissolution or otherwise) against any General
Partner. No Partner shall have any right to demand property other than money
upon dissolution and termination of the Partnership, and the Partnership is
prohibited from such a distribution of property absent the Consent of the
Special Limited Partner.
Section 15.3 Distributions of Assets. Upon a dissolution of the
Partnership, the General Partner (or, if there is no General Partner then
remaining, such other Person(s) designated as the liquidator of the Partnership
by the Special Limited Partner or by the court in a judicial dissolution) shall
take full account of the Partnership assets and liabilities and shall liquidate
the assets as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof.
(a) Upon dissolution and termination, after payment of, or adequate
provision for, the debts and obligations of the Partnership pursuant to Section
11.2(a) through and including 11.2(c), the remaining assets of the Partnership
shall be distributed to the Partners in accordance with Section 11.2, after
taking into account all allocations under Article X hereof.
(b) With respect to assets distributed in kind to the Partners in
liquidation or otherwise:
(1) unrealized appreciation or unrealized depreciation in the
values of such assets shall be deemed to be Income and Losses realized by the
Partnership immediately prior to the liquidation or other Distribution event;
and
(2) such Income and Losses shall be allocated to the Partners
in accordance with Section 10.2 hereof, and any property so distributed shall be
treated as a Distribution of an amount in cash equal to the excess of such Fair
Market Value over the outstanding principal balance of and accrued interest on
any debt by which the property is encumbered.
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
57
(c) For the purposes of Section 15.3(b), "unrealized appreciation" or
"unrealized depreciation" shall mean the difference between the Fair Market
Value of such assets, taking into account the Fair Market Value of the
associated financing but subject to Section 7701(g) of the Code, and the
Partnership's adjusted basis in such assets for book purposes. Section 15.3(b)
is merely intended to provide a rule for allocating unrealized Income and Losses
upon liquidation or other Distribution event, and nothing contained in Section
15.3(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement is intended to treat or cause such
Distributions to be treated as sales for value. The Fair Market Value of such
assets shall be determined by an independent appraiser to be selected by the
General Partner with the Consent of the Special Limited Partner.
Section 15.4 Deferral of Liquidation. If at the time of liquidation the
General Partner or other liquidator shall determine that an immediate sale of
part or all of the Partnership assets could cause undue loss to the Partners,
the liquidator may, in order to avoid loss, but only with the Consent of the
Special Limited Partner, either defer liquidation and retain all or a portion of
the assets or distribute all or a portion of the assets to the Partners in kind.
In the event that the liquidator elects to distribute such assets in kind, the
assets shall first be assigned a value (by appraisal by an independent
appraiser) and the unrealized appreciation or depreciation in value of the
assets shall be allocated to the Partners' Capital Accounts, as if such assets
had been sold, in the manner described in Section 10.2, and such assets shall
then be distributed to the Partners as provided herein. In applying the
preceding sentence, the Project shall not be assigned a value less than the
unamortized principal balance of any loan secured thereby.
Section 15.5 Liquidation Statement. Each of the Partners shall be
furnished with a statement prepared or caused to be prepared by the General
Partner or other liquidator, which shall set forth the assets and liabilities of
the Partnership as of the date of complete liquidation. Upon compliance with the
distribution plan as outlined in Sections 15.3 and 15.4, the Limited Partner and
Special Limited Partner shall cease to be such and the General Partner shall
execute, acknowledge and cause to be filed those certificates referenced in
Section 15.6.
Section 15.6 Certificates of Dissolution; Certificate of
Cancellation of Certificate of Limited Partnership.

the Partnership, the event causing the Partnership's dissolution and the date of
the dissolution.
E:\WNC\Mansur3.doc
58

prescribed by, the Secretary of State of the State, a certificate of
cancellation of the Certificate of Limited Partnership. The certificate of
cancellation of the Certificate of Limited Partnership shall set forth the

complex for low-income persons (the "Apartment Complex") in Carbon Cliff, Rock
Island County, Illinois. The general partner(s) of the Partnership (is/are)
Elderly Living Development, Inc., (the "General Partner(s)").
In rendering the opinions stated below, we have examined and relied
upon the following:
(i) [Certificate of Limited Partnership];
(ii) [Agreement of Limited Partnership] (the "Partnership

(iii) A preliminary reservation letter from
[State Allocating Agency] (the "State Agency") dated

tax credits annually for each of four years for the
Apartment Complex; and
(iv) Such other documents, records and
instruments as we have deemed necessary in order to
enable us to render the opinions referred to in this
letter.
For purposes of rendering the opinions stated below we have assumed
that, in those cases in which we have not been involved directly in the
preparation, execution or the filing of a document, that (a) the document
reviewed by us is an original document, or a true and accurate copy of the

authority and capacity.
Based on the foregoing we are of the opinion that:
(a) ________________________, one of the General Partners, is a

and perform its obligations under the Partnership Agreement.

perform its obligations under the Partnership Agreement.
(b) The Partnership is a limited partnership duly formed and validly
existing under the laws of the State of Illinois.
(c) The Partnership is validly existing under and subject to the laws
of IL with full power and authority to own, develop, [construct/rehabilitate],
finance and operate the Apartment Complex and to otherwise conduct business
under the Partnership Agreement.
(d) Execution of the Partnership Agreement by the General Partner(s)
has been duly and validly authorized by or on behalf of the General Partner(s)
and, having been executed and delivered in accordance with its terms, the
Partnership Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the General
Partner(s), enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(e) The execution and delivery of the Partnership Agreement by the
General Partner(s) does not conflict with and will not result in a breach of any
of the terms, provisions or conditions of any agreement or instrument known to
counsel to which any of the General Partner(s) or the Partnership is a party or
by which any of them may be bound, or any order, rule, or regulation to be
applicable to any of such parties of any court or governmental body or
administrative agency having jurisdiction over any of such parties or over the
property.
(f) To the best of counsel's knowledge, after due inquiry, there is no
litigation or governmental proceeding pending or threatened against, or
involving the Apartment Complex, the Partnership or any General Partner which
would materially adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise) or
business of the

Apartment Complex, the Partnership or any of the Partners of the Partnership.
(g) The Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner have been
admitted to the Partnership as limited partners of the Partnership under
__________ law and are entitled to all of the rights of limited partners under
the Partnership Agreement. Except as described in the Partnership Agreement, no
person is a partner of or has any legal or equitable interest in the
Partnership, and all former partners of record or known to counsel have validly
withdrawn from the Partnership and have released any claims against the
Partnership arising out of their participation as partners therein.
(h) Liability of the Limited Partner for obligations of the Partnership
is limited to the amount of the Limited Partner's capital contributions required
by the Partnership Agreement.
(i) Neither the General Partner(s) of the Partnership nor the Limited
Partner nor the Special Limited Partner will have any liability for the Mortgage
represented thereby (as those terms are defined in the Partnership Agreement,
and the lender of the Mortgage Loan will look only to its security in the
Apartment Complex for repayment of the Mortgage Loan.
(j) The Partnership owns a fee simple interest in the Apartment
Complex.
(k) To the best of our actual knowledge and belief, after due inquiry,
the Partnership has obtained all consents, permissions, licenses, approvals, or
orders required by all applicable governmental or regulatory agencies for the
development, [construction/rehabilitation] and operation of the Apartment
Complex, and the Apartment Complex conforms to all applicable Federal, state and
local land use, zoning, health, building and safety laws, ordinances, rules and
regulations.
(l) The Apartment Complex has obtained a preliminary reservation of low
income housing tax credits ("LIHTC") from the State Agency. The final allocation
of the LIHTC and ultimately eligibility of the Apartment Complex for such final
allocation are subject to a series of requirements which must be met, performed
or achieved at various times prior to and after such final allocation. Assuming
all such requirements are met, performed or achieved at the time or times
provided by applicable laws and regulations, the Apartment Complex will qualify
for LIHTC.
All of the opinions set forth above are qualified to the extent
that the validity of any provision of any agreement may be subject to

These opinions are rendered for use by the Limited Partner and its legal counsel
which will rely on this opinion in connection with federal income tax opinions
to be rendered by that firm. This opinion may not be delivered to or relied upon
by any other person or entity without our express written consent.

creation of all or any of the Liabilities, (b) notice of any amendment or

any

release of Guarantor from any Liability hereunder, but Guarantor agrees to pay

effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, to the extent of any such
payment or payments.
No delay or failure on the part of the Developer in the exercise of any
right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial
exercise by the Developer of any right or remedy shall preclude other or future
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No action of the

and shall be construed and governed under Illinois law.
Whenever possible, each provision of the Guaranty Agreement shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Guaranty Agreement shall be prohibited by or
invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition of invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this Guaranty Agreement.

proceeding brought to enforce, construe or interpret this Guaranty. Guarantor

CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATING BUDGET
AGREEMENT
This Construction and Operating Budget Agreement ("Agreement") is
entered into as of the date written below by and between Xxxxxx Xxxx Living
Center, L.P., an Illinois limited Partnership ("Owner"), Elderly Living
Development, Inc., ("General Partner"), WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P.,
Series 5, a California limited Partnership ("Limited Partner") and WNC Housing,
L.P., a California limited Partnership ("Special Limited Partner"). Owner,
General Partner, Limited Partner and Special Limited Partner collectively may be
referred to as the "Parties" or individually may be referred to as a "Party".
RECITALS
A. Owner has acquired the property site at Xxxxxx Court and 7th Avenue
in Carbon Cliff, Rock Island County, Illinois (the "Real Property").
B. Owner intends to develop on the Real Property a 115 unit low-income
rental housing complex and other related improvements for elderly, which is
intended to qualify for federal low-income housing tax credits (the "Project").
C. On the even date herewith a Partnership agreement for Xxxxxx Xxxx
Living Center, L.P. ("Partnership Agreement") was entered into by and between
Elderly Living Development, Inc., as the general partner ("General Partner"),
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 5 as the limited partner and WNC
Housing, L.P. as the special limited partner (the Partnership Agreement is
incorporated herein by this reference as if the same were reproduced in full and
any capitalized terms not defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning as
defined in the Partnership Agreement).
D. In determining whether to be admitted into Xxxxxx Xxxx Living
Center, L.P. and contribute funds to the development of the Project, the Limited
Partner and Special Limited Partner performed a due diligence review. Part of
the due diligence review included an analysis of the available sources of funds
to develop the Project, the cost of construction, the anticipated revenues
associated with the rental of the Project apartment units and the expenses
required to operate the Project.
E. The Parties recognize and acknowledge that the final construction
cost determination involves substantial negotiations with lenders, contractors
and governmental authorities.
F. The Parties recognize and acknowledge that a final operating budget
involves substantial negotiations with lenders and governmental authorities.
G. Limited Partner's and Special Limited Partner's decision
to execute the Partnership Agreement is based, in part, on their
1
acceptance of the sources of funds available to develop the Project, the cost of
construction to build the Project and the operating budget necessary to provide
a positive Debt Service Coverage.
Now Therefore, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the
mutual promises and undertakings in this Agreement, and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Owner and Developer agree as follows.

herein by this reference is the Project Source of Funds. The Source of Funds
have been specified in the Partnership Agreement as the Construction Loan, the
Mortgage, the Capital Contribution of the General Partner, the Capital
Contribution of the Limited Partner and the Capital Contribution of the Special
Limited Partner. Unless expressly permitted in the Partnership Agreement,
Consent of the Special Limited Partner is required for any change to the Source
of Funds.
2. Construction Proforma. Attached hereto as Exhibit "B" and
incorporated herein by this reference is the Construction Proforma. If the
construction costs exceed the sum of the Capital Contributions, the proceeds of
the Mortgage and the Development Fee then the General Partner shall be
responsible for and shall be obligated to pay such deficiencies.
3. Operating Proforma. Attached hereto as Exhibit "C" and incorporated
herein by this reference is the Operating Proforma. The Limited Partner and the
Special Limited Partner underwrote the subject transaction at a 1.10 Debt
Service Coverage. Notwithstanding, in the event the Net Operating Income does
not produce a 1.10 Debt Service Coverage as determined by the Special Limited
Partner then at the request of the Special Limited Partner the General Partner
shall reduce and/or refinance the principal of the Mortgage to an amount the
Special Limited Partner determines is adequate to produce a 1.10 Debt Service
Coverage.
