determined by reference to such property), allocation of income, gain, loss and
deductions with respect to such property shall be in accordance with federal tax
requirements and other applicable law.
F. ALLOCATIONS UPON THE ADMISSION OF ADDITIONAL PARTNERS. In the
event additional Partners are admitted to the Partnership on different dates

in accordance with Code Section 706 using any convention permitted by law and
selected by the General Partner.
G. ITEMS NOT SPECIFICALLY DEALT WITH. Except as otherwise
provided in this Agreement, all items of Partnership income, gain, loss,

related provisions in this Agreement) pertaining to the allocation of items of

Partners pro rata (with all Partners receiving identical fractional interests in
all property distributed) or if any other in-kind distribution is consented to
by all Partners, and in the case of any in-kind

Agreement of Limited Partnership - Stoney River Legendary Management
- 10 -
