WHEREAS, Section 5.02(a) of the Agreement provides that the General Partner is authorized, among other things, to amend the Agreement as provided in Section 12.03 therein, and that the General Partner is also authorized to engage in any activity necessary or incidental to, or in connection with, the accomplishment of the purposes of the Partnership; and

WHEREAS, Section 5.02(b) of the Agreement provides that, with respect to its obligations, powers, and responsibilities under the Agreement, the General Partner is authorized to execute and deliver, for and on behalf of the Partnership, such documents as it deems proper, all on such terms and conditions as it deems proper; and

WHEREAS, Section 12.03(a) of the Agreement grants the General Partner the power and authority to amend the Agreement without the consent of any of the Partnership’s Limited Partners or BUC Holders under the circumstances set forth therein, and the General Partner has determined that the Amendment to the Agreement effected hereby is authorized under Section 12.03(a) of the Agreement.
