20. Redeemable Preferred Units

The Partnership has designated three series of non-cumulative, non-voting, non-convertible Preferred Units that represent limited partnership interests in the Partnership consisting of the Series A Preferred Units, the Series A-1 Preferred Units, and the Series B Preferred Units. The Partnership previously issued Series A Preferred Units via a private placement to five financial institutions. The Partnership has not yet issued Series A-1 Preferred Units or Series B Preferred Units. The Preferred Units have no stated maturity, are not subject to any sinking fund requirements, and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless redeemed by the Partnership or by the holder.

Upon the sixth anniversary of the closing of the sale or issuance of Series A Preferred Units or Series A-1 Preferred Units to a subscriber, and upon each anniversary thereafter, the Partnership and each holder have the right to redeem, in whole or in part, the Series A Preferred Units or Series A-1 Preferred Units held by such holder at a per unit redemption price equal to $10.00 per unit, plus an amount equal to all declared and unpaid distributions through the date of the redemption. Each holder desiring to exercise its redemption rights must provide written notice of its intent to so exercise no less than 180 calendar days prior to any such redemption date.

Upon the eighth anniversary of the closing of the sale or issuance of Series B Preferred Units to a subscriber, and upon each anniversary thereafter, the Partnership and each holder have the right to redeem, in whole or in part, the Series B Preferred Units held by such holder at a per unit redemption price equal to $10.00 per unit, plus an amount equal to all declared and unpaid distributions through the date of the redemption. Each holder desiring to exercise its redemption rights must provide written notice of its intent to so exercise no less than 180 calendar days prior to any such redemption date.

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Partnership, the holders of the Series A Preferred Units, Series A-1 Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units are entitled to a liquidation preference in connection with their investments. With respect to anticipated quarterly distributions and rights upon liquidation, dissolution, or the winding-up of the Partnership’s affairs, the Series A Preferred Units and Series A-1 Preferred Units will rank: (a) senior to the Partnership’s BUCs and to any other class or series of Partnership interests or securities expressly designated as ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Units or Series A-1 Preferred Units; (b) junior to all of the Partnership’s existing indebtedness (including indebtedness outstanding under the Partnership’s senior bank credit facility) and other liabilities with respect to assets available to satisfy claims against the Partnership; and (c) junior to any other class or series of Partnership interests or securities expressly designated as ranking senior to the Series A Preferred Units or Series A-1 Preferred Units. The Series B Preferred Units will rank: (a) senior to the BUCs and to any other class or series of Partnership interests or securities that is not expressly designated as ranking senior or on parity with the Series B Preferred Units ; (b) junior to the Series A Preferred Units and Series A-1 Preferred Units and to each other class or series of Partnership interests or securities with terms expressly made senior to the Series B Preferred Units; and (c) junior to all of the Partnership’s existing indebtedness (including indebtedness outstanding under the Partnership’s senior bank credit facility) and other liabilities with respect to assets available to satisfy claims against the Partnership.
