PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF THE PARTNERSHIP
3.1 Purpose and Scope of the Partnership. The purposes of the
Partnership shall be to:
(A) Acquire, own and hold for investment real estate
(including mineral interests), securities, or any other property as the General
Partner may determine;
(B) Engage in any business, directly or indirectly as a
partner, shareholder or joint venturer, as the General Partner may determine to
be in the best interests of the Partnership, including, without limitation, the
real estate business, the mineral business and investments;
(C) Transact any business that may be conducted in
partnership form; and
(D) Consolidate, preserve, enhance and manage such of the
businesses and properties of the Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx family contributed
to the Partnership in order to promote economies of scale, provide for
management transition within a family, protect against unwanted transfers of
Units outside the family and to facilitate the charitable goals of the family.
6
11
The Partnership may pursue these activities through the
direct ownership of property, indirectly through the ownership of interests in
joint ventures, partnerships, corporations or other entities or revocable trusts
which own property, or in any other manner the General Partner deems
appropriate. The Partnership, acting by and through the General Partner, shall
have all powers necessary or desirable to achieve the Partnership purposes,
including, but not limited to, the power to enter into agreements, leases,
mortgages, evidences of indebtedness, and construction, development, management,
partnership and joint venture agreements, and other contracts and amendments
thereto; the power to borrow money; the power to open and maintain bank accounts
authorizing withdrawals on the signature of such one or more Persons as the
General Partner may designate; the power to sell, pledge, encumber, assign and
otherwise deal with or dispose of any or all of the property of the Partnership;
the power to execute such other documents and to take such other actions as may
be necessary or desirable from time to time in connection with any of the
foregoing; and such other powers granted the General Partner in Article 10.
3.2 Statutory Requirements. The General Partner shall cause a
Certificate of Limited Partnership to be executed and filed with the Secretary
of State of the State of Texas. The General Partner shall cause to be executed
and filed from time to time certificates of amendment or termination to such
certificate whenever the same may be required by the Act. The General Partner is
further authorized and empowered by the Limited Partners to prepare and file
with the Secretary of State of the State of Texas and with other appropriate
authorities any assumed name certificates, applications for certificates of
authority or other filings required to be made by the Partnership to comply with
any applicable law.
3.3 Competing Business. No General Partner shall be obligated to
devote such General Partner's full time and attention to the Partnership and its
affairs. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall restrict the right of any
Partner to conduct, independently of the Partnership, any business, investment
or other activity, whether or not similar to or competitive with the business of
the Partnership. In the event that a Partner engages in any such other business
or other activity, such partner shall not be accountable to the Partnership or
to any other Partner in any manner in connection therewith. No Partner shall be
required to submit any other investment opportunities to the Partnership.
ARTICLE 4
TERM
4.1 Term of the Partnership. The term of the Partnership shall
commence as of the date first above written and shall continue, unless

ARTICLE 5
CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND ADVANCES
5.1 The General Partner.
(A) The General Partner shall contribute to the
Partnership the property described in Exhibit A to this Agreement, the Net Asset
Value of which property is also set forth in Exhibit A.
7
12
(B) The General Partner shall receive Units which
represent a one percent (1%) Percentage Interest. All remaining Units
attributable to property contributions by the General Partner shall be issued as
limited partnership Units.
(C) Each General Partner shall at all times hold Units
which represent no less than a one percent (1%) Percentage Interest. Each
General Partner agrees to contribute capital, from time to time, in the form of
cash or other property, in exchange for Units sufficient to at all times
maintain no less than a one percent (1%) Percentage Interest.
(D) Except as provided in this section and Section
5.1(C), the General Partner is not obligated to make any additional capital
contributions to the Partnership, but any General Partner may do so if such
General Partner so elects. If on the final dissolution and winding up of the
Partnership and following the allocation of all taxable income, gain, loss and
deductions resulting therefrom and the distribution of all cash and other
property, the Capital Account of a General Partner has a negative balance, such
General Partner shall contribute to the Partnership capital, an amount equal to
the negative balance in its Capital Account, and shall do so in compliance with
Regulation ss. 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(3). Except as otherwise provided in this
Section 5.1(D), under no conditions shall any General Partner be required, upon
dissolution and winding up of the Partnership or at any other time, to
contribute capital to the Partnership solely on account of the loss of some or
all of the capital contributed by any other Partner or on account of a negative
balance in the Capital Account of any other Partner.
5.2 The Limited Partners. The Limited Partners have contributed
the property described in Exhibit A, the Net Asset Value of which property is
also set forth on Exhibit A. Each Limited Partner shall receive the number of
Units and be entitled to the Percentage Interest set forth on Exhibit A. No
Limited Partner shall be obligated to make any additional capital contributions
and shall not be obligated to restore or eliminate any negative balance in such
Limited Partner's Capital Account.
5.3 Classification of Partners. A Partner's interest in the
Partnership is determined pursuant to this Agreement according to whether the
Partner acquires Units as a General Partner or a Limited Partner. A Partner may
hold Units as both a General Partner and a Limited Partner and, with respect to
the Units held as a Limited Partner, shall be entitled to all the rights and
privileges as a Limited Partner.
5.4 Units.
(A) In exchange for each $1,000 (or fractional part of
$1,000) of Net Asset Value of property contributed by each Partner as reflected
on Exhibit A, each Partner will receive one or more units, or fractional units
(collectively, "Units"), representing such Partner's interest in the
Partnership.
(B) In the event any Partner elects to make additional
capital contributions to the Partnership with the consent of the General Partner
or in the event the Partnership admits additional partners, the number of Units
to be received in exchange for such an additional capital contribution shall be
determined as follows:
(1) The Net Asset Value of all Partnership
assets shall be determined on the date immediately prior to such
contribution.
8
13
(2) The Net Asset Value of all Partnership
assets shall be divided by the number of Units outstanding immediately
before the contribution ("Unit Value"); and
(3) In exchange for such additional capital
contribution, the Partner or Person making such contribution shall
receive that number of Units which equals the Net Asset Value of the
property contributed divided by the Unit Value.
5.5 Loans by Partners. To the extent that any funds in excess of
those provided for under Sections 5.1 and 5.2 are needed by the Partnership, as
determined by the General Partner, the General Partner may request one or more
loans from the Partners. Any Partner may, but need not, advance such additional
funds as a loan to the Partnership at an interest rate equal to one percentage
point over the commercial base rate being charged by NationsBank N.A.-Austin,
Texas, and shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Partnership and such Partner,
be repaid as a priority out of the next available funds. If more than one loan
is made pursuant to this Section 5.5, the earlier in time shall be repaid first.
If more than one Partner desires to make loans, such Partners shall provide
loans in such proportions as they may agree and, in lieu of agreement, in the
proportions of their respective Units.
5.6 Interest on and Return of Capital Contributions. No Partner
shall receive any interest on its capital contributions to the Partnership or on
its Capital Account notwithstanding any disproportionate contributions or
Capital Accounts as between the Partners. The General Partner shall not be
liable for the return of the capital contributions of the Limited Partners, nor
for the return of any Partnership assets. A negative balance in any Partner's
Capital Account shall not be deemed to be an asset of the Partnership, except
pursuant to Section 5.1(D). No Partner shall be entitled to withdraw or obtain a
return of all or any part of its capital contribution otherwise than as
expressly provided in this Agreement. It is the intent of the Partners that,
unless expressly stated otherwise in a writing furnished to all the Partners by
the Partnership, no distribution (or any part of any distribution) made to any
Partner pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed a return or withdrawal of
capital, even if such distribution represents (in full or in part) a
distribution of depreciation or any other noncash item accounted for as a loss
or deduction from or offset to income. It is the further intent of the Partners
that no Partner shall be obligated to pay any such amount to or for the account
of the Partnership or any creditor of the Partnership. However, if any court of
competent jurisdiction holds that the Partnership made a distribution to a
Limited Partner in violation of Section 6.07(a) of the Act and the Limited
Partner knew that such a distribution was prohibited, then any obligation to
return the distribution to the Partnership pursuant to Section 6.07(b) of the
Act shall be the obligation of such Partner and not of any other Partner or the
Partnership.
ARTICLE 6
ALLOCATION OF PROFIT AND LOSS
6.1 Loss Allocations.
(A) After first giving effect to the special allocations
set forth in Exhibit C to this Agreement (if applicable), and subject to the
limitation in Section 6.1(B), Losses for any fiscal year shall be allocated as
follows:
9
14
(1) First, to the Partners who have positive
balances in their Capital Accounts pro rata in accordance with and up
to the amount of such positive balances;
(2) Second, any remaining Losses shall be
allocated to the General Partner.
(B) Losses allocated to a Partner pursuant to Section
6.1(A) and this Section 6.1(B) shall not exceed the maximum amount of Losses
that can be so allocated without causing such Partner to have an Adjusted
Capital Account Deficit at the end of any fiscal year. All Losses in excess of
the limitation set forth in this Section 6.1(B) shall be allocated to the other
Partners in proportion to their Percentage Interests.
6.2 Profit Allocations. After first giving effect to the special
allocations set forth in Exhibit C to this Agreement (if applicable), Profits
for any fiscal year shall be allocated as follows:
(A) First, to the General Partner until the cumulative
Profits allocated pursuant to this Section 6.2(A) equal the cumulative Losses
allocated to the General Partner pursuant to Section 6.1(A)(2);
(B) Second, to the Partners until the cumulative Profits
allocated pursuant to this Section 6.2(B) equal the cumulative Losses allocated
to the Partners pursuant to Section 6.1(A)(1); and
(C) Third, any remaining Profits shall be allocated to
the Partners in their Percentage Interests.
6.3 Varying Interests of the Partners. In the event that the
Partners' Percentage Interests vary during a taxable year due to the issuance of
additional Units or because of a transfer of Units, then the Profits and Losses
shall be allocated among the Partners whose Percentage Interests changed during
the taxable year based upon the length of time during such year that each
Partner held a particular Percentage Interest and as if the items were incurred
or received, as the case may be, ratably throughout the entire taxable year;
provided, however, that if the assets of the Partnership are sold, exchanged or
otherwise disposed of after a change in Percentage Interests, but during the
taxable year in which the change occurs, all taxable income or loss attributable
to such sale, exchange or other disposition shall be allocated in accordance
with the Percentage Interests on the date of the sale, exchange or other
disposition.

the Partnership in accordance with his duty of care and loyalty to the
Partnership. In making distributions the General Partner may consider the future
credit needs of the Partnership, future business needs for reserves and
expansions, prepayment of credit lines and operating reserves for the
Partnership. Proceeds from the sale or refinancing of property shall be
considered necessary reserves for replacement or investment, unless otherwise
determined by the General Partner.
ARTICLE 8

8.1 Taxable Year. The taxable year of the Partnership shall be the
calendar year.
8.2 Books and Records. The General Partner shall keep or cause to
be kept adequate books of account of the Partnership on the cash or accrual
basis, as the General Partner elects, wherein shall be recorded all of the

8.7 Basis Election. Upon the transfer of an interest in the
Partnership, a distribution of its property, or the death of a Partner, the
General Partner shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cause the
Partnership to elect to adjust the basis of the Partnership property as allowed
by xx.xx. 734(b), 743(b) and 754 of the Code, provided, however, that if such an
election is made, the Partnership shall not be required to make (and shall not
be obligated to bear the expenses of making) any accounting adjustments
resulting from such election in the information supplied to the Partners, or if
it provides such adjustments the Partnership shall have the right to charge the
Partner or Partners benefitting from such election for the Partnership's
reasonable expenses in making such adjustments.
8.8 Capital Accounts. The General Partner shall maintain a
separate Capital Account for each Partner regardless of the class or classes of
Units owned by such Partner. "Capital Account" shall mean, with respect to any
Partner, the amount of cash and the Asset Value of property contributed by the
partner to the Partnership (net of liabilities assumed by the Partnership and
liabilities to which such contributed property is subject) (1) reduced, to the
extent required under ss. 704(b) of the Code, by (a) any Loss allocated to such
Partner under Section 6.1 and any items of deduction and loss which are
specially allocated pursuant to Exhibit C to this Agreement and (b) any
distributions of Net Cash Flow and Net Cash From Sales or Refinancings to such
Partner under Section 7.1 and Section 7.2, respectively, and the Asset Value of
property distributed to the Partner by the Partnership (net of liabilities
assumed by the Partner and liabilities to which such distributed properties are
subject), and (2) increased, to the extent required under ss. 704(b) of the
Code, by any Profit allocated to such Partner under Section 6.2 of this
Agreement and any items of income and gain which are specially allocated
pursuant to Exhibit C to this Agreement. For purposes of maintaining the
Partners' Capital Accounts, all distributions shall be deemed to have been made
in the year of the actual distribution without regard to the time period in
which the transaction or transactions giving rise to the funds occurred. The
Capital Account with respect to any substituted Partner shall reflect all prior
adjustments to the Capital Account of the transferring Partner. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the Capital Accounts shall be maintained
in strict accordance with the Regulations promulgated under ss. 704(b) of the
Code. In this regard, the General Partner also shall make any appropriate
modifications to the Capital Account in the event that the General Partner
determines that the provisions contained in this Agreement do not otherwise
comply with Regulations ss. 1.704-1(b). In addition, the General Partner shall
maintain such other separate and additional accounts for each Partner as shall
be necessary to reflect accurately the rights and interests of the respective
Partners.

Partners, a General Partner appointed by a majority of the General Partners,

shall be a General Partner.

unanimous consent of all of the General Partners. In the event of a disagreement
among the General Partners, the decision of Xxxx & Company, L.L.C., as long as
it is a General Partner, shall control in any and all events. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any General Partner may delegate to the other General Partner any
or all rights, powers or duties hereunder, but not responsibilities, so long as
any such delegation shall be in a writing signed and dated by the delegating
General Partner. Any such delegation may be subject to such conditions or

energy, advice and experience to the management of the Partnership's business;
shall (subject to Section 10.3) determine all matters relating to the financing,
management and operation of the assets and property of the Partnership; and
shall be the managing partner of the Partnership. The General Partner shall
devote such time to the affairs of the Partnership as it reasonably deems
necessary to properly conduct its business and affairs in accordance with this
Agreement and applicable law. The General Partner shall prosecute and defend
such
13
18

Partnership.
(C) In addition to any other rights and powers which it
may possess under law or by virtue of this Agreement, but subject to the other
provisions of this Agreement, the General Partner shall have full, exclusive and
complete discretion to manage and control, and to make all decisions affecting,
the Partnership business, with all the rights and powers of a partner in a
partnership without limited partners, or necessary or appropriate to manage the
Partnership business, including, but not limited to, the following rights and
powers:
(1) To cause any property owned or leased by the

and for such compensation as the General Partner shall determine;

engaged under terms or conditions less favorable to the Partnership
than those customarily imposed by similarly qualified unrelated
Persons;
(3) To invest and reinvest all funds of the
Partnership;
(4) To acquire, hold, lease, encumber, pledge,
option, sell, exchange or otherwise deal with or dispose of real or
personal property (or rights or interests therein) of any nature

and, if security is required, to mortgage, hypothecate, pledge or

mineral interests which the Partnership may own including mineral
leases, operating agreements, farm-ins, farm-outs, royalty agreements
and unitization or pooling agreements;
(11) To pay any and all fees and expenses
incurred in the organization or operation of the Partnership, or in any
modification of this Agreement; and

file, publish or record any and all agreements or instruments to
effectuate any of the foregoing.
10.3 Limitations on Authority of the General Partner.

Agreement, and in addition to any other provisions of this Agreement which may
require approval by some or all of the Limited Partners, the General Partner

General Partner, except Substituted Limited Partners pursuant to
Section 11.6.

shall no longer be a General Partner or have any power to exercise any rights or
powers of a General Partner, the general partnership interest of such removed
General Partner shall automatically be converted into a limited partnership
interest, and such removed General Partner shall automatically become a
Substituted Limited Partner. Further, and in addition to the rights of the
Limited Partners to appoint a new General Partner pursuant to Section 12.2, upon
the vote or concurrence of a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners (other
than the then removed General Partner), a new General Partner may be admitted to
the Partnership and the Units of all the Limited Partners may be diluted pro
rata to provide Units for such new General Partner which represent no less than
a one percent (1%) Percentage Interest.
10.4 Payments to the General Partner and Its Affiliates. In
addition to the distributions to the General Partner provided for in Articles 7
and 12, the payments to Affiliates of the General Partner pursuant to Section
10.2(C)(2) and the repayment of principal and interest with respect to any loans
made by the General Partner in accordance with Section 5.5, the General Partner
is authorized to make the following payments to itself and its Affiliates:

Partner and its Affiliates for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
General Partner or its Affiliates in organizing the Partnership; and

Partner and its Affiliates for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the

including (but not limited to) the cost of rents, utilities, supplies, wages,
employee benefits and any other third-party costs.
ARTICLE 11
TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS
11.1 Assignment.
(A) No Partner shall sell, give, transfer, will, assign,
pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of, voluntarily or involuntarily,
(hereinafter "assign") all or any portion of or interest in such Partner's Units
("Transferred Interests") except as provided in this Article. In addition, no
assignee of Transferred Interests shall have the right to assign any Transferred
Interests except as permitted in this Article. In addition to meeting the other
requirements of this Article, any valid assignment must be in writing, the terms
of which are not in contravention of any of the provisions of this Agreement,
and the assignment must be received by the Partnership and recorded on the books
of the Partnership.
(B) As used in this Agreement, the "effective date of an
assignment" of Transferred Interests shall be the date as of which all of the
requirements for an assignment expressed in this Article shall have been met.
(C) Until the effective date of an assignment, both the
Partnership and the Partners shall be entitled to treat the assignor of such
Transferred Interests as the absolute owner thereof in all respects. However,
subject to Section 11.2, the General Partner may not refuse to record an
assignment on the books of the Partnership unless it reasonably believes the
assignment to be illegal, void or otherwise not in compliance with the terms of
this Agreement.
(D) Upon the effective date of an assignment of
Transferred Interests, the assignee of such Transferred Interests shall be
entitled to receive distributions from the Partnership in accordance with
Article 7 and Article 12 and to be allocated income, gain, loss, deduction,
credits or similar items in accordance with the other provisions of this
Agreement as if such assignee held Units instead of Transferred Interests.
However, no such assignee shall become a Partner (General or Limited) as a
result of such assignment or be entitled to any rights of a Partner under this
Agreement, including the right to vote on any Partnership matter or the right to
examine or have access to any Partnership records (except as provided in
Sections 1.07(d) and 1.07(e) of the Act), or to in any way interfere in the
management or operation of the Partnership, unless and until such assignee is
admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner pursuant to Section 11.6. Until
admitted as a Partner, (i) the assignor shall continue to be a Partner (General
or Limited Partner, as the case may be) and to have the power to exercise any
rights or powers of a Partner with respect to the Transferred Interests, and
(ii) the Units shall be deemed to remain outstanding and in the hands of the
assignor Partner.
11.2 General Limitations on Assignment. In addition to the other
requirements of this Agreement, no assignment of any Transferred Interests may
be made (i) if such assignment, together with
16
21
all other assignments of Transferred Interests within the preceding twelve
months, would result in a termination of the Partnership for purposes of ss. 708
of the Code; (ii) if such assignment would violate the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, or applicable state securities or blue sky laws or any other
applicable provisions of law in any respect; (iii) if such assignment would
cause the Partnership to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation
rather than as a partnership pursuant to the provisions of Subchapter K of the
Code; (iv) if such assignment is made outright to a minor or an incompetent (but
an assignment may be made to a trust for the benefit of a minor or an
incompetent); (v) unless the assignor and assignee duly execute such instruments
to reflect the assignment as the General Partner reasonably requests; or (vi)
unless the assignor delivers to the General Partner an opinion (if the General
Partner so requests), in form and substance and issued by counsel acceptable to
the General Partner, covering such aspects of the proposed assignment (including
without limitation those referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of this
Section 11.2) as the General Partner may request. Any purported assignment that
does not comply with the provisions of this Article shall be void and
ineffectual and shall not bind the Partnership or the General Partner. Any
assignor who wishes to assign any Transferred Interests shall promptly notify
the General Partner of the same, furnish the General Partner with such
information regarding the assignment as may reasonably be requested by the
General Partner, and pay all expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees) incurred by the Partnership or the General Partner in
connection with such assignment.
11.3 Right of First Refusal.
(A) Subject to the restrictions and conditions of the
other provisions of this Article 11, no Limited Partner (or General Partner
under the circumstances provided for in Section 11.5(c)) or assignee shall
assign any Transferred Interests, and no Transferred Interests shall be
transferred on the books of the Partnership, unless (i) the Transferred
Interests are assigned to a Permitted Assignee as defined in Section 11.3(D) or
(ii) if the assignment is to a Person other than a Permitted Assignee, prior to
such transfer the assignor, or, in the case of an involuntary transfer, the
assignee (referred to in each case as the "Notifying Party") first gives written
notice (the "Offer Notice") to the Partnership and to the other Partners, which
Offer Notice shall set forth the Transferred Interests that are to be subject to
such assignment, the identity of the assignee, the consideration, if any, to be
received for the assignment, the other material terms of the assignment and a
copy of any written materials, agreement or contract setting forth such terms.
Each Limited Partner (other than any Partner making such assignment)
(collectively, the "Option Partners") shall then have the option for one hundred
eighty (180) days after the date of the Offer Notice to acquire its share (which
shall equal such Option Partner's Percentage Interest divided by the sum of the
Percentage Interests of all Option Partners) of the Transferred Interests at the
price and on the terms and conditions set forth in paragraph (B) of this Section
11.3. If some, but not all, of the Option Partners exercise their option to
purchase their share of the Transferred Interests, those Option Partners who so
exercised shall have a subsequent option for ten (10) days after the earlier of
(i) the expiration of such one hundred eighty (180) day period and (ii) the
exercise or waiver of the first option by the last Option Partner within which
to purchase some or all of the Transferred Interests which the other Option
Partners elected not to purchase. If exercise of this second option results in
Option Partners electing to purchase more of the remaining Transferred Interests
than are available, the portion of the remaining Transferred Interests that each
such Option Partner exercising the second option may purchase shall be equal to
that fraction which equals such Option Partner's Percentage Interest divided by
the Percentage Interests of all Option Partners exercising the second option.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Option Partners exercising options may
determine, by unanimous written agreement among themselves, the proportions in
which they may purchase the Transferred Interests. All exercises of options or
waivers
17
22
of exercise hereunder shall be made by giving written notice to the Notifying
Party and to all of the Partners within the applicable time period. If any
Option Partner fails to give written notice of the exercise or waiver of an
option within the time periods herein set forth, then such Option Partner shall
be deemed to have waived the exercise of the option on the last day of the
relevant period. As to such portion or all of the Transferred Interests which
the Option Partners elect to purchase, a closing of the purchase shall be held
upon the later of (i) the date for purchase set forth in the Offer Notice or
(ii) twenty (20) days after the date of the last exercise or waiver of an option
hereunder. (The closing date may be extended for any time period required by the
appraisal procedure set forth in Exhibit B.) As to any portion of the
Transferred Interests which the Option Partners elect not to purchase, such
portion may be assigned to the Person and on the terms set forth in the Offer
Notice at any time or times within the thirty (30) day period next following the
waiver or exercise of the last applicable option under this paragraph, but if
the assignment shall not be consummated to such Person on such terms within such
thirty (30) day period, then the Option Partners' right of notice and right to
purchase the Transferred Interests shall apply to any subsequent transfer of
that portion of the Transferred Interests.
(B) If the transfer is for a valuable consideration in
money or money's worth (including satisfaction of indebtedness), the purchase
price for the Transferred Interests shall equal the lesser of (i) the purchase
price set forth in the Offer Notice; (ii) the Capital Account of the Partner
relating to the Transferred Interests; (iii) the amount of the indebtedness to
be satisfied out of the Transferred Interest; or (iv) the fair market value of
the Transferred Interests determined in the manner provided in Exhibit B. If the
transfer is not for a valuable consideration in money or money's worth, the
purchase price shall equal the lesser of (i) Capital Account of the Limited
Partner relating to the Transferred Interest; or (ii) the fair market value of
the Transferred Interests determined in the manner provided in Exhibit B. The
determination of the amount of the purchase price shall be made by the Option
Partners who elect to purchase. In the event the Option Partners elect to
purchase at the price stated in the Offer Notice, that price may be paid in
accordance with the terms, if any, set forth in the Offer Notice.
(C) The provisions of this Section 11.3 shall apply
regardless of whether the Offer Notice contemplates only an assignment of the
economic interest in the Partnership or an assignment whereby the assignee would
become a Substituted Limited Partner. No assignee of a Limited Partner (or of a
direct or indirect assignee of a Limited Partner), including an assignee under
an assignment permitted under this Section 11.3, may become a Substituted
Limited Partner except as provided in Section 11.6.
(D) A Permitted Assignee shall be any of the following:
(1) Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx, and
any of their descendants;
(2) Any corporation, partnership, limited
liability company or other legal entity 100% of the beneficial ownership of
which is owned by Permitted Assignees;
(3) Any trust set up for the primary benefit of
one or more Permitted Assignees;
(4) Any organization described in each of the
following Code sections: 170(b)(1)(A), 170(c), 2055(a) and 2522(a);
(5) A charitable remainder trust under Section
664 of the Code; or
18
23
(6) Any other Person approved by the General
Partner and a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners.
11.4 Certain Assignment Events Involving Limited Partners and
Assignees.
(A) If an individual Limited Partner or assignee of
Transferred Interests dies or a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges an
individual Limited Partner or assignee of Transferred Interests to be
incompetent to manage such Limited Partner's or assignee's person or property,
such Limited Partner's or assignee's executor, administrator, guardian,
conservator or other legal representative may exercise all such Limited
Partner's or assignee's rights and powers to settle such Limited Partner's or
assignee's estate or administer such Limited Partner's or assignee's property,
and shall be treated as an assignee of such Limited Partner's or assignee's
Transferred Interests. Such deemed assignment of such Transferred Interests
shall not be subject to the provisions of Sections 11.3(A), 11.3(B) or 11.3(C),
but shall otherwise be subject to the provisions of this Article 11. Any
assignment, distribution or conveyance by the estate of a deceased or an
incompetent Limited Partner shall be subject to the provisions of this Article
11.
(B) Upon the Bankruptcy of an individual Limited Partner
or assignee of Transferred Interests, such individual shall be deemed to have
assigned his Transferred Interests to the legally authorized personal
representative of such individual. As such, the deemed assignment of such
Transferred Interests shall be subject to the provisions of Article 11,
including without limitation Section 11.3 hereof. The Offer Notice shall be
deemed given on the date that the General Partner has actual knowledge of the
Bankruptcy.
(C) Upon the Bankruptcy, dissolution or other cessation
to exist as a legal entity of any Limited Partner or assignee of Transferred
Interests which is not an individual, such entity shall be deemed to have
assigned its Transferred Interests to the legally authorized personal
representative or successors of such entity. As such, the deemed assignment of
such Transferred Interests shall be subject to the provisions of Article 11,
including without limitation Section 11.3 hereof. The Offer Notice shall be
deemed given on the date that the General Partner has actual knowledge of the
Bankruptcy or dissolution.
(D) Any judgment creditor of any Limited Partner or
assignee of Transferred Interests shall have only the rights of a judgment
creditor set forth in Section 7.03 of the Act. In the event that any creditor of
a Limited Partner or assignee of Transferred Interests judicially or
nonjudicially forecloses on, obtains a charging order or otherwise acquires
title to any Transferred Interests owned by a Limited Partner or assignee of
Transferred Interests, such foreclosure or acquisition shall be deemed an
assignment of such Transferred Interests. As such, the deemed assignment of such
Transferred Interests shall be subject to the provisions of Article 11,
including without limitation Section 11.3 hereof. The Offer Notice shall be
deemed given on the date that the General Partner has actual knowledge of the
affected assignment.
(E) If the marital relationship of a Limited Partner or
assignee of Transferred Interests is terminated by the death of such Limited
Partner's or assignee's spouse or by divorce and (i) such Limited Partner or
assignee of Transferred Interests does not succeed to his or her spouse's
community interest, if any, in the Limited Partner's or assignee's interest in
the Partnership, or (ii) if any interest in the Partnership owned by the Limited
Partner or assignee of Transferred Interests devolves to
19
24
his or her spouse as a result of divorce, then such Limited Partner or assignee
of Transferred Interests shall promptly notify the Partners of that fact,
stating the date of such death or divorce. Such an occurrence shall be treated
as an assignment as of the date of such notice, and such deemed assignment shall
be subject to the provisions of Article 11, including without limitation Section
11.3 hereof.
11.5 Certain Assignment Events Involving General Partner(s). No
General Partner may voluntarily transfer or assign any Units or interests in the
Partnership as a General Partner. Certain other events involving a General
Partner's Units are provided below.
(A) Any General Partner may voluntarily withdraw at any
time from the Partnership by giving written notice to that effect to the other
Partners. Upon such withdrawal, such General Partner shall no longer be a
General Partner or have any power to exercise any rights or powers of a General
Partner, such General Partner's partnership interest shall automatically be
converted into a limited partnership interest and the withdrawing General
Partner shall automatically become a Substituted Limited Partner under this
Agreement.
(B) Upon (i) the Bankruptcy or death of an individual
General Partner, (ii) the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction
adjudicating an individual General Partner mentally incompetent to manage his or
her person or property, or (iii) the Bankruptcy, dissolution or other cessation
to exist as a legal entity of any General Partner which is not an individual,
such General Partner or assignee shall be deemed to have assigned its
Transferred Interests to its legally authorized personal representative or
successors. As such, the deemed assignment of such General Partner's Transferred
Interests shall be subject to the provisions of Article 11, including without
limitation Section 11.3 hereof. In addition, such General Partner shall also be
deemed to have withdrawn as a General Partner from the Partnership; such General
Partner shall no longer be a General Partner or have any power to exercise any
rights or powers of a General Partner; no Person shall be entitled to vote with
respect to the Units of such General Partner; and such Units shall be
disregarded for purposes of determining the vote required for any action to be
taken by the General Partner or the Partners.
(C) Any judgment creditor of any General Partner shall
have only the rights of a judgment creditor set forth in Section 7.03 of the
Act. In the event that any creditor of a General Partner judicially or
nonjudicially forecloses on, obtains a charging order or otherwise acquires
title to any Transferred Interests owned by a General Partner, such foreclosure
or acquisition shall be deemed an assignment of such Transferred Interests. As
such, the deemed assignment of such Transferred Interests shall be subject to
the provisions of Article 11, including without limitation Section 11.03 hereof.
(D) Upon the voluntary or involuntary assignment by a
General Partner of any of the Units owned by such General Partner in violation
of this Agreement, the General Partner's status as a General Partner may be
terminated by a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners (not including the
affected General Partner to the extent of any Units owned as a Limited Partner).
In such an event, the General Partner shall be deemed to have withdrawn as a
General Partner from the Partnership; such General Partner shall no longer be a
General Partner or have any power to exercise any rights or powers of a General
Partner; no Person shall be entitled to vote with respect to the Units of such
General Partner and such Units shall be disregarded for purposes of determining
the vote required for any action to be taken by the General Partner or the
Partners.

11.6 Substituted Limited Partner.
(A) No assignee of Transferred Interests (including
without limitation purchasers of Transferred Interests under Section 11.3) shall
have the right to become a Substituted Limited Partner except upon the written
consent of the General Partner, the granting or denying of which consent shall
be in the sole determination of the General Partner and, if granted, may be
granted subject to whatever conditions, if any, the General Partner may require.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no event may an
assignor of Transferred Interests make or enter into an agreement, oral or
written, with an assignee or potential assignee of Transferred Interests
pursuant to which the assignor agrees to exercise its residual rights in the
Partnership at the direction or instruction of any assignee of such Transferred
Interests and any such purported agreement shall be null and void.
(B) Notwithstanding any granting of consent by the
General Partner pursuant to paragraph (A) of this Section 11.6, the admission of
an assignee as a Substituted Limited Partner shall be further conditioned as
follows:
(1) The assignment instrument and such other
instruments as the General Partner may deem necessary or desirable to
effect the admission of the assignee as a Substituted Limited Partner
being in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner;
(2) The assignor and assignee executing such
other instrument or instruments as the General Partner may deem
necessary or desirable to effect such admission;
(3) The assignee and the assignee's spouse (if
any) accepting and adopting in writing all the terms and provisions of
this Agreement, as the same may have been amended;
(4) The assignee and/or the assignor paying or
obligating themselves to pay all reasonable expenses connected with
such admission (as determined by the General Partner, but which the
General Partner shall have the right to waive), including, but not
limited to, the cost of the preparation, filing and publishing of any
appropriate documents; and
(5) Such other conditions as the General Partner
may reasonably impose.
ARTICLE 12
DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION
12.1 Dissolution. The first to occur of the following events
("Dissolving Events") shall cause the dissolution of the Partnership:
(A) December 31, 2035;
(B) The decision by the General Partner and all of the
Limited Partners to dissolve the Partnership;
21
26
(C) The removal of the last remaining General Partner
pursuant to Section 10.3(B) or the withdrawal of the last remaining General
Partner;
(D) Entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under
Section 8.02 of the Act; and
(E) The occurrence of any other circumstance or event
which, by law, would result in dissolution of the Partnership.
12.2 Continuation of Business and Reconstitution of Partnership. If
a Dissolving Event described in Section 12.1(C) or 12.1(E) occurs, the
Partnership may be reconstituted and its business continued without being wound
up if (i) there remains at least one General Partner, in which case such
remaining General Partner shall be permitted to carry on the business of the
Partnership; or (ii) within 90 days after the date of removal or withdrawal of
the General Partner that constituted the Dissolving Event under Section 12(C),
at least a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners agree in writing to
continue the business of the Partnership and, to the extent that they agree to
the appointment, effective as of the date of removal or withdrawal, of one or
more new general partners and agree to dilute their Units pro rata to provide
Units for each such new General Partner which represent no less than a one
percent (1%) Percentage Interest. If the Partnership is dissolved as a result of
an event described in Section 12.1(C), and if there is no remaining General
Partner, a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners may appoint an interim
manager of the Partnership, who shall have and may exercise only the rights,
powers and duties of a General Partner necessary to preserve the Partnership
assets, until (a) a new General Partner is appointed pursuant to this Section
12.2, if the Partnership is reconstituted, or (b) the Liquidator (as defined
below) is appointed pursuant to Section 12.3, if the Partnership is not
reconstituted. The interim manager shall not be liable as a general partner to
the Limited Partners and shall, while acting in the capacity of interim manager
on behalf of the Partnership, be entitled to the same indemnification rights as
are set forth in Section 15.20.
12.3 Winding-Up and Termination.
(A) On the dissolution of the Partnership, unless it is
reconstituted in accordance with Section 12.2, the Partnership's affairs shall
be wound up and the Partnership terminated as soon as reasonably practicable by
the General Partner or, if there is no remaining General Partner, by such other
Person or Persons designated by a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners
(such General Partner or other Person being referred to as the "Liquidator" for
purposes of this Article) and the Liquidator shall have exclusive authority and
responsibility for liquidating the Partnership in the manner set forth in this
Article. The Liquidator (if not a General Partner) shall be entitled to receive
such reasonable compensation for its services as shall be agreed upon by the
Liquidator and a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners. The Liquidator
may resign at any time by giving fifteen (15) days prior written notice to the
Partners and may be removed at any time, with or without cause, or a successor
Liquidator appointed upon such removal or upon the death, dissolution or
resignation of the Liquidator, by written notice signed by or on behalf of a
Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners. The Liquidator shall have and may
exercise all of the powers conferred upon the General Partner under the terms of
this Agreement to the extent necessary or desirable to perform its duties and
functions under this Article, and shall have full right and discretion to
determine the time, manner and terms of any sale or sales of Partnership
property in connection with the liquidation of the Partnership, having due
regard for the activity and condition of the relevant markets and general
financial and economic conditions. The Liquidator (if not a General Partner)
shall not be liable as a general partner to the Limited Partners and shall,
while acting
22
27
in such capacity on behalf of the Partnership, be entitled to the same
indemnification rights as are set forth in Section 15.20.
(B) Following the occurrence of a Dissolving Event, if
the Partnership is not to be reconstituted, the Partnership's activities shall
be strictly limited to winding up its affairs. In the course of the winding up
and terminating the business and affairs of the Partnership, the assets (other
than cash) of the Partnership that are not to be distributed under Section
12.3(D) shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining fair
value therefor. Thereafter, such assets shall be applied and distributed in the
following order:
(1) first, to Partnership creditors (other than
Partners) to extinguish Partnership liabilities and obligations,
including the costs and expenses of liquidation; and
(2) second, to repay the Partners (General or
Limited) any sums lent to the Partnership by the Partners to the extent
not previously paid.
Any net assets of the Partnership remaining after the foregoing distributions
(the "Liquidation Proceeds") shall be distributed to the Partners as set forth
in Section 12.3(C) below.
(C) The Liquidation Proceeds of the Partnership (less any
reasonable portion thereof reserved by the Liquidator for a reasonable time to
pay contingent or unforeseen Partnership liabilities) shall be distributed in
one or more installments to the Partners in accordance with their positive
Capital Account balances, after taking into account all Capital Account
adjustments for the Partnership's taxable year during which the winding up of
business occurs. All distributions to Partners who have positive Capital Account
balances, whether in cash pursuant to this Section 12.3(C) or in kind pursuant
to Section 12.3(D), shall be made in compliance with Regulations ss.
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2), and, if any General Partner's Capital Account has a
deficit balance, after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for
the Partnership's taxable year during which the winding up of business occurs,
such General Partner shall contribute to the Partnership the amount necessary to
restore such deficit balance to zero in compliance with Regulations ss.
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(3) and in accordance with Section 5.1(D).
(D) If a distribution of Partnership property in kind is
made, such property shall be either, in the discretion of the Liquidator: (i)
transferred and conveyed to the Partners so as to vest in each of them, as
tenants in common, a percentage interest in the whole of said property; or (ii)
transferred and conveyed to the Partners on an asset-by-asset basis, so that
each Partner receives his, her or its appropriate portion of the Net Asset Value
of the Partnership (as determined in accordance with the final positive Capital
Account balances of the Partners). If the Liquidator determines to transfer any
property to the Partners on an asset-by-asset basis, and the Liquidator and the
Partners cannot agree on the valuation of the assets of the Partnership within
thirty (30) days after the date of such determination, then the value of the
assets shall be determined by an appraisal in the following manner: one (1)
appraiser shall be named by the Liquidator and one (1) appraiser shall be named
by a Majority in Interest of the Partners. The initial selection of an appraiser
shall be made by the Liquidator within ten (10) days after the expiration of
such thirty (30) day period by sending notification of such selection to the
Partners. Unless a Majority in Interest of the Partners selects the other
appraiser and notifies the Liquidator of such selection within ten (10) days
after such notice from the Liquidator, then the decision of the appraiser
selected by the Liquidator shall be final and binding on all parties. If a
second appraiser is selected, and if the two (2) appraisers cannot agree upon
the value of such assets within ten (10) days after the selection of the second
23
28
appraiser, the appraisers shall immediately appoint a third appraiser and the
median value determined by all three (3) appraisers shall be final and binding
on all parties. The cost of any appraisal undertaken pursuant to the terms of
this Section shall be an expense of the Partnership. Except to the extent the
Liquidator determines to make a distribution under this Section 12.3(D), no
Partner shall have any right to demand or receive property other than cash upon
dissolution and termination of the Partnership.
(E) A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly
liquidation of the assets of the Partnership and the discharge of liabilities as
to creditors.
(F) Within ninety (90) days after the complete
liquidation of the Partnership, the General Partner or his executors or
representatives shall satisfy any requirement to contribute cash to the
Partnership pursuant to Section 5.1(D). In addition, the Liquidator shall
furnish to each of the Partners a statement for the period from the first day of
the then current fiscal year through the date of such complete liquidation. Such
statement shall include a Partnership statement of operations for such period
and a Partnership balance sheet as of the date of such complete liquidation.
Upon compliance with the foregoing distribution plan, the Partners shall cease
to be such, and the Liquidator shall execute, acknowledge and cause to be filed
a Certificate of Cancellation of the Partnership. No Limited Partner shall be
obligated to restore any deficit in such Limited Partner's Capital Account
solely by reason of a negative balance in such Limited Partner's Capital
Account.
ARTICLE 13
POWER OF ATTORNEY
13.1 Appointment of Power of Attorney.
(A) Each of the Limited Partners hereby irrevocably
constitutes and appoints each General Partner, with full power to act alone and

and in its name, place and stead to make, execute, consent to, swear to,
acknowledge, record and file the following:
(1) A Certificate of Limited Partnership,
Assumed Name Certificates, Applications for Certificate of Authority
and any other certificates or other instruments which may be required
to be filed by the Partnership or the Partners under the laws of the
State of Texas and under the applicable laws of any other jurisdiction
to the extent that the General Partner deems such filing to be

or terminations thereof;
(2) All instruments that effect a change or
modification of the Partnership in accordance with this Agreement,
including any amendment to this Agreement made in accordance with the
terms hereof; and

24
29
(B) It is expressly understood and intended by each of
the Limited Partners that the grant of the foregoing power of attorney is
coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable and shall be binding on any
assignee of all or any part of its interest in the Partnership.
(C) To the extent allowed by law, the foregoing power of
attorney shall survive the death, legal incapacity, Bankruptcy, insolvency,
dissolution or other cessation to exist as an entity of a Limited Partner during
the term hereof and shall survive the delivery of any assignment by a Limited
Partner of the whole or any portion of its interest in the Partnership, and any
assignee of such Limited Partner does hereby constitute and appoint the General
Partner his, her or its attorney in the same manner and force and for the same
purposes as does the assignor.
(D) The foregoing power of attorney may be exercised by
the General Partner, on behalf of the Limited Partners by executing any
instrument along with a single signature as attorney-in-fact for them.
ARTICLE 14
AMENDMENT
14.1 Procedure for Amendment. This Agreement shall be amended upon
the written consent or affirmative vote of the General Partner and a Majority in
Interest of the Limited Partners, provided, however, that the unanimous consent
of all Partners shall be necessary for any amendment which would (a) alter any
Partner's Percentage Interest (except in accordance with the existing provisions
of this Agreement), (b) alter the manner of distributing Net Cash Flow or Net
Cash From Sales or Refinancings or allocating Loss or Profit, (c) impose a new,
material obligation on a Partner or remove a material right of a Partner, (d)

actions or omissions, or (e) amend this Section 14.1. In addition, the General
Partner may amend this Agreement without the affirmative vote or written consent
of the Limited Partners (i) if the General Partner is advised by counsel to the
Partnership that such amendment is required as a condition to maintain the tax
status of the Partnership as a partnership or to cause Partnership tax
allocations to have substantial economic effect, or (ii) to correct a false
statement or error in this Agreement if the correction will not adversely affect
the rights and interests of the Limited Partners or decrease the obligations and
duties of the General Partner. The General Partner shall, within thirty (30)
days after the making of any amendment to this Agreement, file or cause to be
filed such amendment in all places where such filing is necessary or desirable
to protect the interests of the Limited Partners or to comply with any
applicable law.

or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested. All notices shall
be effective when so delivered or five days after being so mailed.
15.6 Controlling Provision. Any other provision of this Agreement
to the contrary notwithstanding, no Partner shall have any power whatsoever
(whether directly or indirectly) in (i) the determination of whether to retain
or distribute Partnership earnings and profits, (ii) the management of the
Partnership, or (iii) any other matter, that in any event would cause a
partnership interest which was the subject of a gift by such Partner (or by a
shareholder of such Partner, in the case of a Partner who is a corporation) to
be includible in such Partner's (or shareholder's, if applicable) gross estate
for federal estate tax purposes.
15.7 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all parties had signed the
same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute
one agreement.
15.8 Reliance on Opinion of Counsel. The doing of any act or the
failure to do any act by the General Partner, the effect of which may cause or
result in loss or damage to the Partnership, if done or omitted pursuant to an
opinion of legal counsel employed by the General Partner on behalf of the
Partnership, shall not subject the General Partner to any liability.
15.9 Scope of Partners' Authority. Except as otherwise provided in
this Agreement, none of the Partners shall have any authority to act for, or to
assume any obligations or responsibilities on behalf of, any other Partner or
the Partnership. No Person dealing with the General Partner shall be required to

31

and no other signatures shall be required unless otherwise required by

15.11 Waiver of Partition. Each of the Partners irrevocably waives
during the term of the Partnership any right to bring or maintain any action for
partition with respect to the property of the Partnership.
15.12 Time. Time is of the essence in this Agreement.
15.13 Binding Effect. Subject to the limits on assignment contained
herein, each and all of the covenants, terms, provisions and agreements
contained herein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties,
their respective heirs, assigns, successors and legal representatives.
15.14 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Exhibits
hereto, contains the entire agreement between the parties relative to the
formation and operation of the Partnership. This agreement supersedes any prior
understandings or oral or written agreements between the parties respecting the
subject matter of this Agreement.
15.15 Remedies Not Exclusive. Any remedies herein contained for
breaches of obligations hereunder shall not be deemed to be exclusive and shall
not impair the right of any party to exercise any other right or remedy, whether
for damages, injunction or otherwise.
15.16 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement
is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public
policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless
remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of
the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially
adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision
is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall
negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original
intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end
that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.
15.17 Captions. Article or Section titles or captions contained in
this Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience and for reference
and in no way define, limit, extend or describe the scope of this Agreement or
the intent of any provision hereof.
15.18 Identification. Whenever the singular number is used in this
Agreement and when required by the context, the same shall include the plural,

15.19 Certain Representations. Each Partner hereby represents and
warrants to the other Partners that at the time of such Partner's acquisition of
an interest in the Partnership (i) such Partner is aware that interests in the
Partnership are not being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or under the Texas Securities Act or any other state securities law, in
reliance upon certain exemptions from registration, (ii) certain provisions of
this Agreement and state and federal securities laws limit and condition the
right and ability of the Partner to transfer its interest in the Partnership,
and
27
32
therefore, the Partner's interest in the Partnership is illiquid; and (iii) such
Partner is not acquiring an interest in the Partnership with the intent of
making any distribution which would violate any applicable securities law.
15.20 Limited Liability and Indemnification of the General Partner.
(A) No General Partner shall be liable to the Partnership
or any of the Limited Partners for any act or omission performed or omitted by
him in good faith pursuant to the authority granted to him by this Agreement, or
in accordance with its provisions, and in a manner reasonably believed by the
General Partner to be within the scope of the authority granted the General
Partner and in the best interest of the Partnership, provided that such act or
omission did not constitute fraud, bad faith, or gross negligence. The
Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless the General Partner for any
liability, loss, damage, cost or expense (including without limitation
attorneys' fees) incurred by him on behalf of the Partnership or in furtherance
of the Partnership's interest, except for liability arising out of fraud, bad
faith or gross negligence. In addition, to the full extent permitted by
applicable law (including without limitation Article 11 of the Act), the
Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless each General Partner from, and
reimburse the General Partner for, all judgments, penalties, including excise
and similar taxes, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses (including court
costs and attorneys' fees) if the General Partner was, is or is threatened to be
named a defendant or respondent in a proceeding because such Person is or was a
general partner of the partnership. The foregoing shall, without limitation, be
deemed to make mandatory the indemnification permitted under Section 11.02 of
the Act and to authorize advance payment of expenses to the full extent
permitted by applicable law. These indemnification rights are in addition to any
other rights the General Partner may have, including, but not limited to, rights
against third parties, and rights under any applicable statute, agreement,
insurance policy, vote of the Partners, or otherwise.
(B) In the event a General Partner pays any debt of the
Partnership (other than a debt incurred under circumstances such that the
General Partner is not entitled to indemnification under Section 15.20(A) of
this Agreement), such General Partner shall be reimbursed therefor from
Partnership assets.
15.21 Further Assurances. Each party agrees to perform any further
acts and execute and deliver any further documents which may be reasonably
necessary from time to time in order to carry out or to effectuate the intent of
this Agreement.
15.22 Spousal Consent. The spouses of the Partners, if any, are
fully aware of, understand, and fully consent and agree to, the provisions of
this Agreement and its binding effect upon any community property interests they
may now or hereafter own, and agree that the termination of their marital
relationship with any Partner for any reason shall not have the effect of
removing any interests in the Partnership otherwise subject to this Agreement
from the coverage hereof, and that their awareness, understanding, consent and
agreement are evidenced by their signing this Agreement. Further, such spouses
agree that in the case of any interest in the Partnership that is the community
property of such spouse and a Partner, all rights of management, control and
disposition (within the meaning of the Texas Family Code) of such community
property shall be exercisable solely by such Partner, unless such Partner is
under a disability. Nothing contained in this Agreement, or in any other
document executed in connection herewith, however, shall constitute a
representation or admission by any party that any interest
28
33
in the Partnership constitutes community property or subject such spouse's
separate property to any liability of the Partnership.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have signed and acknowledged this
instrument as of the day and year first above written.

EXHIBIT B
DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE
OF PARTNERSHIP INTEREST
In the event a determination of the fair market value of Transferred
Interests is required pursuant to any provision of the Agreement, the following
provisions shall be applicable:
A. The fair market value of any Transferred Interest shall be the
price at which the interest would change hands between a willing seller and a
willing buyer, neither being under any compulsion to buy or to sell, and both
having reasonable knowledge of relevant facts, including, but not limited to,
all facts relevant for determining under sections 2031 and 2512 of the Code the
fair market value of closely held partnership interests which may not be
withdrawn before the end of the term of the Partnership.
B. The Notifying Party (herein referred to as the "Seller") and
the purchasing Option Partners (herein referred to as the "Purchaser") shall
first attempt to determine the fair market value of the affected Transferred
Interest (the "Affected Interest") by agreement. If Seller and Purchaser are
unable to agree on the fair market value of the Affected Interest within fifteen
(15) days after the Purchaser has received an Offer Notice, each of Seller and
Purchaser shall, within the period of an additional fifteen (15) days, name a
qualified appraiser and supply the name of such appraiser to the other party. If
either Seller or Purchaser fails to appoint an appraiser, the determination of
fair market value of the Affected Interest shall be made by the sole appraiser
appointed. If two appraisers are selected, then, within the period of thirty
(30) days after the appointment of the second appraiser, the two appraisers
shall separately determine the fair market value of the Affected Interest and
shall provide copies of their written reports to each of Seller and Purchaser.
If the difference between the two appraisal reports is ten percent (10%) or less
(the higher report being less than the lower report multiplied by 1.1) the
average of the appraisals shall conclusively determine the fair market value of
the Affected Interest. If the difference between the two appraisal reports is
greater than ten percent (10%), the two appraisers shall appoint a third
qualified appraiser, who shall select between the two appraisal reports as to
the fair market value of the Affected Interest. The opinion of the third
appraiser shall be conclusive of the fair market value of the Affected Interest.
If the two appraisers cannot agree upon a third appraiser, that appointment
shall be made by the Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the
Western District of Texas, Austin Division, upon the petition of either Seller
or Purchaser.
C. For purposes hereof, an appraiser shall be "qualified" if he
would be considered an expert for purposes of giving testimony as to the fair
market value per Unit of the Partnership in a judicial or similar proceeding.
The costs and expenses of the appraiser selected by Seller or Purchaser shall be
borne by the party selecting the appraiser. The costs and expenses of a third
appraiser shall be borne equally by Seller and Purchaser.
D. During the period of time that a determination of the fair
market value of the Affected Interest is being made pursuant to the procedures
set forth in this Exhibit B, all time periods for notice or exercise of any
rights related to the purchase shall be suspended. Upon the final determination
of fair market value, all time limits shall automatically commence.
39
EXHIBIT C
SPECIAL ALLOCATIONS
For federal income tax purposes, the following provisions shall
supersede any allocations of Profits or Losses provided for in Article 6 of the
Agreement.
Defined Terms:
C-(1) "Adjusted Capital Account Deficit" means, with respect to any
Partner, the deficit balance, if any, in such Partner's Capital Account as of
the end of the relevant fiscal year, after giving effect to the following
adjustments:
(a) Credit to such Capital Account any amounts
which such Partner is obligated to restore pursuant to any provision of the
Agreement, this Exhibit C, the Act or applicable law, or is deemed to be
obligated to restore in connection with a Partner's share of partnership minimum
gain pursuant to Regulations ss. 1.704-2(g)(ii) or in connection with a
Partner's share of minimum gain attributable to any Partner's nonrecourse debt
pursuant to Regulations ss. 1.704-2(i)(5); and
(b) Debit to such Capital Account the items
described in Regulations xx.xx. 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6).
This definition of Adjusted Capital Account Deficit is intended to comply with
Regulations ss. 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), and shall be interpreted consistently
with that provision.
C-(2) "Pre-Contribution Gain" means that portion of the total
taxable gain incurred by the Partnership with respect to an asset contributed by
a Partner to the capital of the Partnership to the extent that such gain does
not exceed the difference between (a) the initial Asset Value of the asset minus
the amount of Depreciation claimed by the Partnership in respect of such asset
and (b) the contributing Partner's adjusted basis in such asset for federal
income tax purposes at the time the asset is contributed to the Partnership
minus the actual depreciation, amortization or cost recovery deductions ("Tax
Depreciation") claimed in respect of the asset for federal income tax purposes.
If pursuant to Regulations promulgated under ss. 704(c) of the Code
disproportionate allocations of Tax Depreciation deductions in respect of
property contributed to the Partnership are not required to be made, or if no
Tax Depreciation deductions are allowable with respect thereto, the amount of
Pre-Contribution Gain shall instead be determined without reference to
Depreciation deductions or Tax Depreciation deductions claimed in respect of the
asset. In the event that the actual gain recognized upon the sale or other
disposition of any such asset for federal income tax purposes is less than the
amount determined above, Pre-Contribution Gain with respect to the asset shall
be such lesser amount.
C-(3) "Pre-Contribution Loss" shall mean that portion of the total
taxable loss incurred by the Partnership with respect to an asset contributed by
a Partner to the capital of the Partnership to the extent that such loss does
not exceed the difference between (c) the contributing Partner's adjusted basis
in such asset for federal income tax purposes at the time the asset is
contributed to the Partnership minus Tax Depreciation (as defined above)
deductions claimed in respect of the asset for federal income tax purposes and
(d) the initial Asset Value of the asset minus the amount of Depreciation
deductions claimed by the Partnership in respect of such asset. If pursuant to
Regulations promulgated under ss. 704(c) of the Code disproportionate
allocations of Tax Depreciation deductions in respect of property contributed to
the Partnership are not required to be made, or if no Tax Depreciation
deductions are allowable with respect thereto, the amount of Pre-Contribution
Loss shall instead be determined without reference to Depreciation
40
deductions or Tax Depreciation deductions claimed in respect of such asset. In
the event that the actual loss recognized upon the sale or other disposition of
any such asset for federal income tax purposes is less than the amount
determined above, Pre-Contribution Loss with respect to the asset shall be such
lesser amount.
C-(4) Special Allocations. The following allocations, which
supersede those of Sections 6.1 and 6.2 of the Agreement, shall be made in the
following order:
(a) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any
other provision of Article 6 of the Agreement or of this Exhibit C, 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 year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to the
greater of (i) the portion of such Partner's share of the net decrease in
Partnership Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Regulations ss.
1.704-2(g)(2) or (ii) if such Partner would otherwise have an Adjusted Capital
Account Deficit at the end of such year, an amount sufficient to eliminate such
Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence
each year shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be
allocated among the Partners pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated
shall be determined in accordance with Regulations ss. 1.704-2(f)(6) and this
provision shall be interpreted consistently therewith. To the extent permitted
by the Regulations and for purposes of this provision only, each Partner's
Adjusted Capital Account Deficit shall be determined prior to any other
allocations pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such fiscal year and
without regard to any net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain during such fiscal
year. For the purposes of this Exhibit C:
(1) "Nonrecourse Liability" has the
meaning set forth in Regulations ss. 1.704-2(b)(3).
(2) "Partnership Minimum Gain" has the
meaning set forth in Regulations ss. 1.704-2(d).
(b) Partner Funded Deductions. Any Partner
Funded Deductions for any fiscal year or other period shall be specially
allocated to the Partner who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the
Partner Funded Debt to which such Partner Funded Deductions are attributable in
accordance with Regulations ss. 1.704-2(i)(l). For the purposes of this Exhibit
C:
(1) "Partner Funded Debt" has the
meaning ascribed to "partner nonrecourse debt" as set forth in Regulations ss.
1.704-2(b)(4);
(2) "Partner Funded Deductions" has the
meaning ascribed to "partner nonrecourse deductions" as set forth in Regulations
ss. 1.704-2(i)(2); and
(3) "Partner Minimum Gain" has the
meaning ascribed to "partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain" as set forth in
Regulations ss. 1.704-2(i)(2).
(c) Partner Minimum Gain Chargeback.
Notwithstanding any other provision of Article 6 except Section C-4(a) above, if
there is a net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Funded
Debt during any Partnership fiscal year, each Partner who has a share of the
Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Funded Debt, determined in
accordance with Regulations
2
41
ss. 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and
gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to
the greater of (i) the portion of such Partner's share of the net decrease in
Partner Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Regulations ss.
1.704-2(i)(4), or (ii) if such Partner would otherwise have an Adjusted Capital
Account Deficit at the end of such year, an amount sufficient to eliminate such
Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence
shall be made each year in proportion to the respective amounts required to be
allocated among the Partners. The items to be so allocated shall be determined
in accordance with Regulations ss. 1.704-2(j). This provision is intended to
comply with the partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirement in
Regulations ss. 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
Solely for purposes of this Section, each Partner's Adjusted Capital Account
Deficit shall be determined prior to any other allocations pursuant to this
Agreement with respect to such fiscal year, other than allocations pursuant to
C-(4)(a)of this Exhibit C.
(d) Qualified Income Offset. In the event any
Limited Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or
distributions described in Regulations xx.xx. 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4),
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or 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 Regulations, the
Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Partner as quickly as possible,
provided that an allocation pursuant to this provision 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 Agreement have been tentatively
made as if this provision were not in this Agreement. This provision is intended
to comply with the qualified income offset requirement in Regulations ss.
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(3) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(e) Curative Allocations. The allocations set
forth in Section 6.1(B) of the Agreement and in Section C-(4)(a), C-(4)(b),
C-(4)(c) and C-(4)(d) of this Exhibit C (the "Regulatory Allocations") are
intended to comply with certain requirements of Regulations ss. 1.704-1(b).
Notwithstanding any other provision of Article 6 of the Agreement or this
Exhibit C (other than the Regulatory Allocations), all remaining Profits and
Losses shall be allocated among the Partners so that, when combined with the
Regulatory Allocations, the net allocations of Profits and Losses shall, to the
greatest extent possible, be equal to the net allocations that would have been
made pursuant to Article 6 of the Agreement and this Exhibit C had no such
Regulatory Allocations been required.
(f) Disallowed Deductions. In the event that any
amounts paid or payable to any Partner or any Affiliate which the Partnership
deducted or intended to deduct are disallowed as deductions for federal income
tax purposes (or it is determined that such amounts are no longer allowable as
deductions), then (i) the amounts thus disallowed or no longer allowable will be
allocated to the Partner who received them (or whose Affiliate received them) as
income, and (ii) notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the
balance of the redetermined Profit or Loss of the Partnership for the taxable
year in question shall, to the extent permitted by law, be allocated among the
Partners to obtain the same allocation of Partnership Profit or Loss (after
giving effect to the income allocated pursuant to clause (i) hereof) as would
have been obtained for such taxable year if the amounts thus disallowed or no
longer allowable had been proper deductions by the Partnership. In particular,
but not by way of limitation, this subsection shall apply to any fees and
interest (including contingent interest) payable by the Partnership, all of
which the Partners intend to be expenses of the Partnership rather than
distributions to Partners.
3
42
(g) Code Section 704(c) Allocations.
(1) In accordance with ss. 704(c) of
the Code and the Regulations thereunder, but solely for income tax purposes, all
Pre-Contribution Gain and all Pre-Contribution Loss with respect to an asset
contributed to the capital of the Partnership shall be specially allocated to
the Partner that contributed the asset.
(2) If the Partnership is eligible to
claim Tax Depreciation deductions in respect of any asset contributed to the
capital of the Partnership, such deductions shall be specially (i.e.,
disproportionately) allocated among the Partners other than the Partner that
contributed the asset to the greatest extent possible so that each such
noncontributing Partner receives Tax Depreciation deductions equal to the amount
of Depreciation deductions (computed pursuant to Section 2.1(A)(5) of this
Agreement) allocated to each such Partner's Capital Account. If the amount of
Tax Depreciation deductions are not sufficient to meet this requirement, such
Tax Depreciation deductions shall be allocated, pro rata, among such
noncontributing Partners in proportion to their respective Capital Accounts. The
balance, if any, of Tax Depreciation deductions shall be allocated to the
Partner that contributed the asset. As is the case with Pre-Contribution Gain
and Pre-Contribution Loss, allocations of Tax Depreciation deductions pursuant
to this provision shall be solely for income tax purposes and shall not affect
the Capital Account of any Partner.
