The officers of the Partnership shall conduct the business operations and activities of the Partnership in a manner consistent with the policies adopted from time to time by the Management Committee.

Section 8.3 Composition of Management Committee

The Management Committee shall consist of three persons (“Management Committee Members”), who shall be appointed from time to time by the General Partner. The General Partner hereby appoints David K.

(c) President. The president shall assist the chairman in the discharge of the chairman’s duties as the chairman may direct and shall perform such other duties as from time to time may be assigned to him by the chairman or by the Management Committee.

In the absence of the chairman or in the event of his inability or refusal to act, the president shall perform the duties of the chairman, and when so acting, shall have all the powers of the chairman.

Section 8.7 Indemnification

(a) The Partnership shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Partnership) by reason of the fact that he is or was a Partner, Management Committee Member, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership (collectively, an “Action”), against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such Action if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any Action by judgment or settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

(b) Any indemnification under Section 8.7(a) shall be limited by the provisions of applicable law shall be made by the Partnership only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Partner, Management Committee Member, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth therein. Such determination shall be made (i) by the Management Committee by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Management Committee Members who are not parties to such Action, or (ii) if directed by the Management Committee, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a Partner, Management Committee Member, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Action, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

(c) Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by a Partner, Management Committee Member, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership in connection with the defense or disposition of any Action may be paid from time to time by the Partnership in advance of the final disposition thereof upon receipt of (i) an affidavit by such person of his good faith belief that he has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under Section 8.7(a), and (ii) an undertaking by such

person to repay to the Partnership the amounts so paid if it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to indemnification as authorized in Section 8.7(a), which undertaking may be accepted by the Partnership without reference to the financial ability of such person to make repayment.

(d) If both the Partnership and any person to be indemnified are parties to an Action, legal counsel representing the Partnership therein may, at the request of such person, also represent such person (unless such dual representation would involve such legal counsel in a conflict of interest in violation of applicable law or principles of professional ethics), and the Partnership shall pay all fees and expenses of such legal counsel incurred during the period of dual representation other than those, if any, that would not have been incurred if legal counsel were representing only the Partnership. Any allocation of fees and expenses between the Partnership and such person made by legal counsel shall be final and binding upon the Partnership and such person.

(e) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided in this Section 8.7 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a Partner, Management Committee Member, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership may be entitled under any contract, agreement or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such position or office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Partner, Management Committee Member, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such person.

(f) The Partnership shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Partner, Management Committee Member, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership, or is or was serving at the request of the Partnership as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Partnership would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Section 8.7.

Section 8.8 General Partner Home Builder Expense Reimbursement

In addition to any other provision in this Agreement with respect to sharing of profits and reimbursement and payment of expenses, the General Partner shall receive a general contractor and nonsite-specific cost reimbursement fee (“General Partner Home Builder Expense Reimbursement”) from the Partnership payable at the closing of the sale of each dwelling unit on the Property in the amount of five percent (5%) of the total, gross sales price for such unit. This and any other reference in this Agreement to the total, gross sales price for each unit shall in all cases mean the amount actually paid by the purchaser of such unit and does not include any upgrades or other similar items which are supplied to such purchaser at no additional cost to be paid by such purchaser. The General Partner Home Builder Reimbursement shall constitute a Partnership expense for all purposes and not a profit or tier distribution to the General Partner. The General

Partner Home Builder Reimbursement may commence at any time during the term of the Partnership. If and while payments of First Tier Distributions or Second Tier Distributions as defined and provided for in Section 15.2 below are not current, then payments of the General Partner Home Builder Expense Reimbursement shall be deferred until such First and Second Tier Distributions are current. Under all circumstances and for all purposes, the General Partner Home Builder Expense Reimbursement shall be subordinate to the First and Second Tier Distributions.

Section 8.9 Limited Partner’s Liability

The Limited Partner shall not take part in the management of the business or transact any business for the Partnership or have the power to sign for or to bind the Partnership to any agreement or document. Except as and to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Limited Partner shall not be subject to assessment nor shall the Limited Partner be personally liable as a Limited Partner for any of the debts of the Partnership or for any of the losses thereof beyond the amount contributed by it as capital to the Partnership and its share of the undistributed profits of the Partnership, provided, however, that the Limited Partner shall be personally liable to the General Partner with respect to the capital contributions required of the Limited Partner pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Section 8.10 Requests for Information and Meetings

(a) Any Partner shall be entitled upon request, provided such request is made in good faith and for proper purpose, to (i) review and copy the books and records of the Partnership at reasonable times and at the location where the records are kept, (ii) obtain the list of the names and addresses of all the Partners, and (iii) have an accounting of all Partnership affairs and finances.

(b) The General Partner shall have a designated employee available to meet monthly with a designated employee of the Limited Partner to discuss Partnership matters and to provide to the Limited Partner monthly financial statements and sales and construction status reports.

Section 8.11 No Guaranty of Investment

The Limited Partner acknowledges that its capital contributions are being made without any guaranty or representation by the General Partner of any particular return on investment or of a return of its capital contribution and that such investment involves a high degree of risk which the Limited Partner is willing to assume. All financial projections, proformas, profits summary results calculations and the like delivered by the General Partner to the Limited Partner are strictly for projection purposes and are not guarantees of results.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Second Amendment to Limited Partnership Agreement of Whispering Meadow Limited Partnership as of the date first above written.
