If the Partnership is dissolved and not reconstituted, the General Partner (or such Person as may be designated by the Limited Partner(s), in the event the dissolution is caused pursuant to Section 9.1(b)) shall act as the Liquidating Trustee and immediately proceed to terminate the business of the Partnership. The Liquidating Trustee (other than the General Partner) shall be entitled to receive such reasonable compensation for its services as may be agreed upon by the Liquidating Trustee and the Limited Partners, which consent shall be deemed provided only upon the prior written consent of all Partners.

The Liquidating Trustee may exercise such powers without further authorization or consent of any of the Partners. The Liquidating Trustee shall, subject to the provisions of Section 6.6, sell as rapidly as is reasonably prudent all Partnership properties, at such prices and on such terms as the Liquidating Trustee, in the exercise of its business judgment, deems in the best interest of the Partnership. The proceeds from such sale or the proceeds from the sale of substantially all of the assets, or the proceeds from such capital contributions, as the case may be, shall be distributed as follows:

(a) first, there shall be distributed to Partnership creditors and obligees funds, to the extent available, sufficient to extinguish Partnership liabilities and obligations (including sums that may have been loaned by Partners or their Affiliates and sums due the Partners or their Affiliates for goods, services, or undertakings furnished to the Partnership for which any Partners or their Affiliates have then become an obligee or creditor of the Partnership), including the cost and expenses of liquidation; and

(b) second, to the Partners in accordance with their respective positive Capital Account balances as adjusted pursuant to Exhibit B; provided, however, that the distributions under this Section 9.5(b) shall be made by the end of the taxable year of the Partnership during which the liquidation of the Partnership occurs (or, if later, ninety (90) days after the date of liquidation).

If the assets are sold on an installment basis, the Partnership shall continue to exist in liquidation until such time as all proceeds have been collected with respect to any installment notes. The proceeds from such installment notes shall be distributed in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 9.5.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth hereinabove, if, after the payment of current Partnership liabilities and obligations to the extent of the funds and/or properties available for that purpose, either any portion of a Partnership borrowing remains unpaid or the

Liquidating Trustee determines that additional funds will be required to meet Partnership costs and expenses theretofore incurred or for which the Partnership may become responOsible, then the Liquidating Trustee shall be obligated to retain such required amounts, if available (or as and when they become available), before any Partnership cash or property is distributed to any Partner.

9.6 Indemnification of the Liquidating Trustee. The Liquidating Trustee shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Partnership from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, costs, damages, and causes of action of any nature whatsoever, arising out of or incidental to the Liquidating Trustee’s taking of any action authorized under or within the scope of this Article IX; provided, however, that the Liquidating Trustee shall be entitled to no indemnification hereunder where the claim at issue arose out of:

(a) a matter entirely unrelated to the Liquidating Trustee’s acting under the provisions of this Article IX;

(b) the proven gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Liquidating Trustee; or

The indemnification rights herein contained shall be cumulative of, and in addition to, any and all other rights, remedies, and recourse to which the Liquidating Trustee shall be entitled, at law or in equity.

9.7 Interim Manager. If the Partnership is dissolved as a result of an event described in Section 9.1(b), the 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: (i) a new General Partner is elected by such Limited Partners, if the Partnership is reconstituted; or (ii) the Liquidating Trustee is appointed pursuant to Section 9.5, if the Partnership is not reconstituted. The interim manager shall not be liable as a general partner to the Partners, and shall, while acting in the capacity as interim manager on behalf of the Partnership, be entitled to the same powers, compensation, and indemnification rights as the Liquidating Trustee.

Reg. § 1.704- I (b)(2)(iv)(d)(2)·

(b) To each Partner’s Capital Account there shall be debited (A) the amount of cash and the Gross Asset Value of any property distributed to such Partner pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, (B) such Partner’s distributive share of Losses and any items in the nature of expenses or losses which are specially allocated pursuant to Sections B.2.3 or B.2.4 hereof, and (C) the amount of any liabilities of such Partner assumed by the Partnership or which are secured by any property contributed by such Partner to the Partnership.

Reg. § 1.7041(b)(2)(ii)(g); provided, however, that adjustments pursuant to clauses (A) and (B) above shall be made only if the General Partner reasonably determines that such adjustments are necessary or appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the Partners in the Partnership.

In the event some but not all of the Limited Partners would have Adjusted Capital Account Deficits as a consequence of an allocation of Losses pursuant to Section B.2.2(a), the limitation set forth in this Section B.2.2.(c) shall be applied on a Limited Partner by Limited Partner basis so as to allocate the maximum permissible Losses to each Limited Partner under Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), with any excess losses allocated to the General Partner.

B.2.3 Special Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made in the following order and priority:

(a) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(f), notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any 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 Partner’s share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treas.

Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(5), 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 Partner’s share of the net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treas. Reg. §§ 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 Treas. Reg. §§ 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1. 704-20)(2). This Section B.2.3(b) is intended to comply with the partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

Reg. §§ 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 Treasury Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Partner as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section B.2.3(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Partner would have an Adjusted Capital Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Agreement have been tentatively made as if this Section B.2.3(c) were not in this Agreement. This Section B.2.3(c) is intended to comply with the qualified income offset requirement in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(e) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated to the Partners in accordance with their Percentage Interests.

Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(1)- provided, however, that if more than one Partner bears the economic risk of loss for such debt, the Partner Nonrecourse Deductions attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated to and among the Partners in the same proportion that they bear the economic risk of loss for such Partner Nonrecourse Debt. This Section B.2.3(f) is intended to comply with the provision of Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(g) Section 754 Adjustments. 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 Treas. Reg. §§ 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or 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 such Partner’s 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 Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Partner to whom such distribution was made in the event Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.

(h) Additional Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made:

(i) If the Partnership has Profits for any Fiscal Year (determined before giving effect to this Section B.2.3(h)), any Partner whose Partially Adjusted Capital Account is greater than its Target Capital Account for such Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated items of Partner deduction or loss (included in the calculation of Profits) for such Fiscal Year equal to the difference between its Target Capital Account and its Partially Adjusted Capital Account. In the event the Partnership has insufficient items of deduction and loss for such Fiscal Year to satisfy the previous sentence with respect to all such Partners, the available items of deduction and loss shall be divided among such Partners in proportion to their differences.

(ii) If the Partnership has Loss for any Fiscal Year (determined prior to giving effect to this Section B.2.3(h)), any Partner whose Target Capital Account is greater than its Partially Adjusted Capital Account for such Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income or gain (included in the calculation of Loss) for such Fiscal Year equal to the difference between its Partially Adjusted Capital Account and Target Capital Account. In the event the Partnership has insufficient items of income or gain for such Fiscal Year to satisfy the previous sentence with respect to all such Partners, the available items of income or gain shall be divided among such Partners in proportion to such differences.

(iii) The availability of items of income, gain, loss or deduction to be specially allocated pursuant to this Section B.2.3(h) shall be determined after giving full effect to all of the preceding provisions of Section B.2.3.

B.2.4 Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Sections B.2.2(b) and B.2.3(a) through (g) (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 B.2.4. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the General Partner shall make such offsetting allocations of Partnership income, gain, loss, or deduction in whatever manner it determine 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 this Agreement.

B.2.5 Intent of Allocations. The parties intend that the allocation provisions of this Exhibit B shall produce final Capital Account balances of the Partners that will permit liquidating distributions in accordance with Section 7.1 of the Agreement. To the extent that the allocations required in this Exhibit B would fail to produce such final Capital Account balances, (i) such allocation provisions shall be amended by the General Partner if and to the extent necessary to produce such result and (ii) items of Partnership income, gain, loss, or deduction for prior open taxable years shall be reallocated by the General Partner among the Partners to the extent it is not possible to achieve such result with allocations of Partnership income, gain, loss, or deduction for the current taxable year and future taxable years.

B.2.6 Other Allocation Rules.

(a) Profits, Losses or any other items allocable to any period shall be determined on a daily, monthly or other basis, as determined by the General Partner using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(b) The Partners are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made in this Agreement and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement in reporting their shares of Partnership income and loss for income tax purposes.

(c) Solely for purposes of determining a Partner’s proportionate share of the “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Partnership within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.7523(a)(3), the Partners’ interests in Partnership profits shall be allocated in accordance with their Percentage Interests.

(d) To the extent permitted by Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(h)(3), 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.

B.2.7 Tax Allocations; Code Section 704(c).

(a) 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 subparagraph (a) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value”. The Partnership shall utilize the traditional method with curative allocations as described in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-3(c) with respect to each item of contributed property.

(b) In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (b) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value”, 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.

(c) Subject to Section B.2.7(a), any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the General Partner. Allocations pursuant to this Section B.2.7 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 Partner’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

(d) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction, and any other allocations not otherwise provided for shall be divided among the Partners in the same proportions as they share Profits or Losses, as the case may be, for the Fiscal Year. For purposes of determining the nature (as ordinary or capital) of any Partnership gain allocated among the Partners for Federal income tax purposes pursuant to this Agreement, the portion of such gain required to be recognized as ordinary income pursuant to Code Sections 1245 and/or 1250 shall be deemed to be allocated among the Partners in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.1245-1(e)(2) and 1.1250-1(f).

B.2.8 Reliance on Advice of Accountants and Attorne(y)s. The General Partner will

have no liability to the Partners or the Partnership if the General Partner relies upon the written opinion of tax counsel or accountants retained by the Partnership with respect to all matters (including disputes) relating to computations and determinations required to be made under this Exhibit B or other related provisions of this Agreement.
