All Losses in excess of the limitations set forth in this Section 4.1(a) shall be allocated to the General Partner.

(b) Allocation of Profits. In the event Losses have been allocated to the General Partner pursuant to Section 4.1(a) hereof, one hundred percent (100%) of the Profits shall be allocated to the General Partner until the cumulative Profits allocated pursuant to this Section 4.1(b) for the current and all prior fiscal years are equal to the cumulative Losses allocated pursuant to Section 4.1(a) hereof for all prior fiscal years.

4.2 Special Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made in the following order:

(a) Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Limited Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6) of the Regulations, items of Partnership income and gain shall be specially allocated to each such Limited Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Limited Partner as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 4.1(a) Allocation of Losses shall be made only if and to the extent that such Limited Partner has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Article IV have been tentatively made as if this Section 4.2(a) were not in this Agreement.

(b) Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Limited Partner has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Partnership fiscal year each such Limited Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 4.2(b) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Limited Partner has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article IV have been tentatively made as if Section 4.2(a) hereof and this Section 4.2(b) were not in this Agreement.

(c) 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 Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m) of the Regulations, to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to 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 a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the Regulations.

4.3 Curative Allocations. The General Partner shall have reasonable discretion, with respect to each Partnership fiscal year, to (i) apply the provisions of Sections 4.2(a)Qualified Income Offset and 4.2(b)Gross Income Allocation hereof in whatever order is likely to minimize the economic distortions that might otherwise result from such allocations, and (ii) divide all allocations pursuant to Sections 4.2(a) and 4.2(b) hereof among the Partners in a manner that is likely to minimize such economic distortions.

4.4 Other Allocation Rules.

(a) Allocation Periods. For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses, or any other items allocable to any period, Profits, Losses, and any such other items 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 Regulations thereunder.

(b) Sharing Ratios. All allocations to the Partners pursuant to this Article IV shall, except as otherwise provided, be divided among them in proportion to their Sharing Ratios as shown on Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes.

(c) Pro Rata Allocations. 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 year.

4.5 Tax Allocations: Code Section 704(c). In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the 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 Section 1.15(a) - Fair Market Value of this Agreement).

In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to Section 1.15(b) - Adjust Gross Fair Market Value hereof, 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 Regulations thereunder.

Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the General Partner in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 4.5 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 Person’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

4.6 Adjustment to Sharing Ratios. The Sharing Ratios of the Partners shall be adjusted in the event: (1) a Partner makes an additional Capital Contribution as permitted by Section 3.5 - Additional Contributions; (2) there is any transfer or assignment of any part of a Partnership Interest by or among the Partners or to any Person who becomes an assignee or transferee of any part of a Partnership Interest; or (3) there is any other disproportionate adjustment to the Capital Account of a Partner. Upon adjustment, a Partner’s Sharing Ratio shall then be determined by the percentage calculated from dividing the value of such Partner’s Capital Account by the value of all Partner’s Capital Accounts. To simplify Partnership accounting, any adjustment to the Sharing Ratios of the Partners as a result of additional Capital

Contributions shall be made semi-annually on June 30 or December 31 following such Capital Contribution.

Partners may vote in person or by proxy at such meeting. The vote of a majority in interest of the Partners shall control any such action unless affecting a provision herein which requires a percentage in excess of 51% of the Partners to act, in which case the highest percentage shall govern the required percentage for amendment.

(b) Voting Eligibility. For the purpose of determining the Partners entitled to vote on, or to vote at, any meeting of the Partners or any adjournment thereof, the General Partner or the Limited Partner requesting such meeting may fix, in advance, a date as the record

No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of eleven (11) months form the date thereof unless otherwise provided in the Proxy. Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the Limited Partner executing it.

(d) Presiding Entity. Each meeting of the Partners shall be conducted by the General Partner or such other Person as the General Partner may appoint pursuant to Robert Rules of Order.

RESTRICTIONS UPON OWNERSHIP AND TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP

THE OWNERSHIP AND TRANSFERABILITY OF INTEREST IN THE PARTNERSHIP ARE SUBSTANTIALLY RESTRICTED. NEITHER RECORD TITLE NOR BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF A PERCENTAGE INTEREST OF ANY PARTNER MAY BE TRANSFERRED OR ENCUMBERED EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.

10.1 Generally. This Partnership is formed by those who know and trust one another, who will have surrendered certain management rights (in exchange for limited liability in the case of a Limited Partner) or who will have assumed sole management responsibility and risk (in the case of a General Partner) based upon their relationship and trust. Capital is also material to the business and investment objectives of the Partnership and its federal tax status. An unauthorized transfer of a Partner’s interest could cause a substantial hardship to the Partnership, jeopardize its capital base, and adversely affect its tax structure. These restrictions upon ownership and transfer are not intended as penalty, but as a method to protect and preserve

existing relationships based upon trust and the Partnership’s capital and its financial ability to continue. Except as expressly provided herein, neither record title nor beneficial ownership of a Partnership Interest held by a Partner as a General Partner may be transferred without the prior written consent of all Partners. Except as provided in Section 10.2, neither record title nor beneficial ownership of a Partnership Interest held by a Partner as a Limited Partner may be transferred without the unanimous consent of the Partners.

10.2 Disclosures, Limitations and Exceptions. The ownership and transfer or assignment of a Partnership Interest is further subject to the following disclosures, limitations and exception:

(a) Federal Law Disclosure and Limitations. The Partnership Interests have not been, nor will they be, registered under federal or state securities laws. Such Partnership Interests may not be offered for sale, sold, pledged, or otherwise transferred unless so registered, or unless an exemption form registration exists. The availability of any exemption from registration must be established by a written opinion of counsel for the owner thereof, which opinion of counsel must be reasonably satisfactory to the General Partner.

(b) Death of a Partner. If a General Partner then serving is a person in an individual capacity (as opposed to a trustee, or an entity, such as a corporation, partnership, or limited liability company), the Partnership Interest held by that individual as General Partner will, as a result of his or her death, be re-classified as a Limited Partner Partnership Interest. If a Limited Partner is a person in an individual capacity (as opposed to a trustee, or an entity, such as a corporation, partnership, or limited liability company) or if an individual (i) is the beneficiary of a trust, the trustee of which is a Limited Partner and such individual has the special or general power to appoint the beneficiaries thereof upon his or her death or (ii) was a

General Partner whose Partnership Interest was converted to that of a Limited Partner pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 10.2(b), the Partnership Interest held by that individual as a Limited Partner may pass to any one or more of the following, without the required unanimous consent of the Partners:

(i) Any descendent of the individual, including descendents by adoption;

(ii) Any parent of the individual;

(iii) Any brother or sister of the individual;

(iv) Any descendent of a brother or sister of the individual, including descendants by adoption;

(v) Any spouse of any individual described in subparagraphs (i) through (iv), other than a spouse who is legally separated from the individual under a decree of separate maintenance or with respect to whom there is an action for divorce pending; or

(vi) Any trust created for the use and benefit of any individual described in subparagraphs (i) through (v).

The Partnership Interest may pass to any individual described in subparagraphs (i) through (v) and/or to any trust created for any such individual Limited Partner, duly admitted to probate; under the terms of any trust described in subparagraph (vi); under a power of appointment pursuant to a trust in which the individual has the special or general power to appoint among the beneficiaries of the trust; or, in the case of any individual described in subparagraphs (i) through (v), under the laws of descent and distribution, if the individual Limited Partner dies intestate.

(c) Estate Planning Transfers. If a Limited Partner is a person in an individual capacity (as opposed to a trustee, or an entity, such as a corporation, partnership, or limited liability company) or if an individual has a beneficial interest in a trust the trustee of which is a Limited Partner and such individual has the special or general power to make a disposition of all or any part of his or her interest in the trust during his or her lifetime, he or she will have the right to make transfers of a Limited Partner Partnership Interest, for value, without value, or for less than full consideration to any one or more of the following, without the required unanimous consent of the Partners:

(i) Any descendant of the individual, including descendants by adoption;

(ii) Any parent of the individual;

(iii) Any brother or sister of the individual;

(iv) Any descendant of a brother or sister of the individual, including a descendant by adoption;

(v) Any spouse of any individual described in subparagraphs (i) through (iv), other than a spouse who is legally separated form the individual under a decree of separate maintenance or with respect to whom there is an action for divorce pending; or

(vi) Any trust created for the use and benefit of any individual described in subparagraphs (i) through (v).

(d) Nonrecognition of an Unauthorized Transfer. The Partnership will not be required to recognize the interest of any assignee or transferee who has obtained a purported Partnership Interest as the result of a transfer or assignment which is not authorized hereunder.

If the ownership of a Partnership Interest is in doubt, or if there is reasonable doubt as to who is entitled to a distribution of the Net Cash Flow or liquidating proceeds attributable to a Partnership Interest, the General Partner may accumulate such Net Cash Flow or liquidation proceeds until this issue is finally determined and resolved.

In the case of a Transfer or attempted Transfer of Interests that is not a Permitted Transfer, the parties engaging or attempting to engage in such Transfer shall be liable to indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership and the other Partners from all cost, liability, and damage that any of such indemnified Persons may incur (including, without limitation, incremental to liability and lawyers’ fees and expenses) as a result of such Transfer or attempted Transfer and efforts to enforce the indemnity granted hereby.

(e) Disposition upon Divorce of a Limited Partner. If as the result of a Limited Partner’s divorce, the other spouse (the “non-partner spouse”) is determined to have any interest in such Limited Partner’s Partnership Interest held in the name of such Limited Partner (the “partner spouse”), then the interest of the non-partner spouse shall be deemed an unauthorized transfer as provided in Section 10.2(d) and as such shall be subject to the provisions of Section 10.2(d); provided, however, that the partner spouse shall have the option to acquire the interest before the Partnership by giving written notice to the non-partner spouse of such partner spouse’s intent to purchase within ninety (90) days from the date of tendering by the non-partner spouse of a written demand for such interest; provided further that, if the partner spouse fails to exercise such option, then thereafter the Partnership’s option shall arise.

(f) Acquisition of an Interest Conveyed to Another Without Authority. If any person should acquire the Partnership Interest of a Partner, or become an assignee thereof, as the result of an order of a court of competent jurisdiction which the Partnership is required by

law to recognize, or if a Partner’s interest in the Partnership is subjected to a lawful “charging order” by a court of competent jurisdiction, or if a Partner makes an unauthorized transfer or assignment of a Partnership Interest, which the Partnership is required by law (and by order of a court of competent jurisdiction) to recognize, the Partnership will have the unilateral option to acquire the interest of the transferee or assignee, or any fraction or part thereof, upon the following terms and conditions:

(i) The Partnership will have the option to acquire the interest by giving written notice to the transferee or assignee of its intent to purchase within ninety (90) days from the date that the Partnership is provided notice of the transfer or assignment.

(ii) The valuation date for the determination of the purchase price of such interest will be the first day of the month following the month in which notice is delivered.

(iii) Unless the Partnership and the transferee or assignee agree otherwise, the purchase price for such interest, or any fraction or part thereof to be acquired by the Partnership, shall be an amount of cash equal to its fair market value as determined by the written appraisal of a person or firm qualified to value partnerships. The appraiser shall be selected by the General Partner but must be a member of the American Society of Appraisers, or its successor, and qualified to perform business appraisals of partnerships and ownership interest therein.

(iv) Closing of the sale will occur at the principal office of the Partnership at 10 o’clock a.m. on the first Tuesday of the month following the month in which the valuation report is rendered.

(v) In order to reduce the burden upon the resources of the Partnership, the Partnership will have the option, to be exercised in writing delivered at closing, to pay its purchase obligation in fifteen (15) annual installments (or the remaining term of the Partnership if less than fifteen (15) years) with interest thereon at the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Code) in effect from time to time funding the period over which interest is accrued. The first installment of principal, with interest due thereon, will be due and payable on the first business day of the calendar year following closing, and subsequent annual installments, with interest due thereon, will be due and payable, in order, on the first business day of each calendar year which follows until the entire amount of the obligation, principal and interest, is fully paid. The Partnership will have the right to prepay all or any part of the purchase obligation at any time without premium or penalty.

(vi) With the unanimous consent of the Partners other than the Partner whose interest is to be acquired, the General Partner may assign the Partnership’s purchase option to one or more of the remaining Partners, in which event any rights or obligations imposed upon the partnership will instead become, by substitution, the rights and obligations of the Partner or Partners who are assignees.

(vii) Neither the transferee nor assignee of an unauthorized transfer or assignment (or the Partner causing the transfer or assignment) will have the right to vote on Partnership matters during the prescribed option period or, if the option to purchase is timely exercised, until the sale is actually closed.

(g) Admission of Substituted Limited Partners. Notwithstanding anything in this Article X to the contrary, any successor to the Partnership Interest of a Limited Partner

permitted under the terms of this Agreement shall be admitted to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner only upon the (a) furnishing to the General Partner of (i) an acceptance in form satisfactory to the General Partner of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and (ii) such other documents and instructions as may be required to effect the admission of such successor as a Limited Partner; and (b) obtaining of the consent of the General Partner, in any case where a successor qualifies as such under subsection (b) or (c) of Section 10.2. Such consent may be withheld or granted in the sole discretion of the General Partner. The transferee shall be admitted to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner as of the effective date of the transfer.

10.3 Partnership Interest Pledge or Encumbrance. No Partner may grant a security interest in or otherwise pledge, hypothecate or encumber his interest in this Partnership or such Partner’s distributions hereunder without the prior written consent of all Partners. It is understood that the Partners are under no obligation to give such consent nor are they subject to liability for withholding such consent.

10.4 Distributions and Applications in Respect to Transferred Interest. If any Partnership Interest is sold, assigned, or transferred during any accounting period in compliance with the provisions of this Article X, Profits, Losses, each item thereof, and all other items attributable to the transferred interest for such period shall be divided and allocated between the transferor and the transferee by taking into account their varying interests during the period in accordance with Code Section 706(d), using any conventions permitted by law and selected by the General Partner. All distributions on or before the date of such transfer shall be made to the transferor, and all distributions thereafter shall be made to the transferee. Solely for purposes of making such allocations and distributions, the Partnership shall recognize such transfer not later

than the end of the calendar month during which it is given notice of such transfer, provided that if the Partnership does not receive a notice stating the date such Interest was transferred and such other information as the General Partner may reasonably require within thirty (30) days after the end of the accounting period during which the transfer occurs, then all of such items shall be allocated, and all distributions shall be made, to the Person who, according to the books and records of the Partnership, on the last day of the accounting period during which the transfer occurs, was the owner of the Interest. Neither the Partnership nor the General Partner shall incur any liability for making allocations and distributions in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.4, whether or not the General Partner or the Partnership has knowledge of any transfer of ownership of any Interest.

ARTICLE XI
GENERAL PARTNERS

11.1 Additional General Partners. Except as provided in Articles X, XI and Section 12.1 hereof, no Person shall be admitted to the Partnership as a General Partner without the unanimous written consent of the Partners.

11.2 Covenant Not to Withdraw, Transfer, or Dissolve. Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, the General Partner hereby covenants and agrees not to (i) take any action to file a certificate of dissolution or its equivalent with respect to itself, (ii) take any action that would cause a Bankruptcy of the General Partner, (iii) withdraw or attempt to withdraw from the Partnership, (iv) exercise any power under the Limited Partnership Act to dissolve the Partnership, (v) transfer all or any portion of its interest in the Partnership as a General Partner hereunder until the Partnership is dissolved and liquidated pursuant to Article XII hereof. If the Limited Partners agree by majority vote, they may provide that the Partnership Interest of the General Partner be transferred to a successor designate by the Limited Partners pursuant to the

Partnership Interest of the General Partner be transferred to a successor designated by the Limited Partners pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 11.3, below.

11.3 Permitted Transfers.

(a) General Partner. The General Partner may transfer all, but not less than, all of its General Partner’s Interest in the Partnership (i) at any time without any consent required from the Limited Partners, to any Person that is such General Partner’s Wholly Owned Affiliate, or (ii) to any Person who is approved by a majority of the Limited Partners; provided that no such Transfer shall be permitted unless and until (x) all of the conditions set forth in Section 10.2 hereof are satisfied, and (y) the transferor and transferee provide the Partnership with an opinion of counsel, which opinion and counsel shall be acceptable to the other Partners, to the effect that such Transfer will not cause the Partnership to become taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes, or to fail to meet any condition precedent then in effect pursuant to an official pronouncement of the Internal Revenue Service to the issuance of private letter ruling by the Internal Revenue Service confirming that the Partnership will be treated as a Partnership for federal tax purposes, whether or not such a ruling is being or has been requested.

(b) Admission of General Partner’s Transferee. A transferee of a General Partner’s Interest hereunder shall be admitted as a General Partner with respect to such General Partner’s Interest if, but only if, (i) the majority of the other Partners consent to such admission, and (ii) if such transferee is a corporation, the transferee satisfies the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code regarding qualifications of a corporate general partner. In the event that the transferee of a General Partner’s Interest is admitted hereunder, such transferee shall be deemed admitted to the Partnership as a General Partner immediately prior to the Transfer, and such transferee shall continue the business of the Partnership without dissolution.

(c) Non Admission of Transferee. A transferee who acquires a General Partner’s Interest hereunder by means of a Transfer that is permitted under this Section 11.3, but who is not admitted as a General Partner, shall have no authority to act for or bind the Partnership, to inspect the Partnership’s books, or otherwise to be treated as a General Partner. Such transferee shall be treated as a Person who acquired an Interest in the Partnership in a Permitted Transfer under Article X of this Agreement. Following such a Transfer, the transferor shall not cease to be a General Partner of the Partnership and shall continue to be a General Partner. Whether or not admitted as a General Partner, no transferee shall have any liability for the acts of the Predecessor General Partner.

11.4 Prohibited Transfers. Any purported Transfer of any General Partner’s Interest that is not permitted pursuant to the terms hereof above shall be null and void and of no effect whatsoever; provided that if the Partnership is required to recognize a Transfer that is not so permitted (or if the Partnership, in its sole discretion, elects to recognize a Transfer that is not so permitted), the General Partner’s Interest transferred shall be strictly limited to the transferor’s rights to allocations and distributions as provided by this Agreement with respect to the transferred interest, which allocations and distributions may be applied (without limiting any other legal or equitable rights of the Partnership) to satisfy any debts, obligations, or liabilities for damages that the transferor or transferee of such General Partner’s Interest may have to the Partnership.

In the case of a Transfer or attempted Transfer of a General Partner’s Interest that is not permitted hereby, (a) such transfer or withdrawal shall be a breach of this Agreement and the Partnership may recover damages from such Partner, including the reasonable cost of obtaining replacement services such Partner was obligated to perform. The Partnership may, in addition to

pursuing any remedies otherwise available under applicable law, recover from such Partner by offsetting any damages against any amount otherwise attributable to such Partner, reducing the Limited Partner interest into which such withdrawing General Partner’s interest may be converted or both. The parties engaging or attempting to engage in such Transfer shall be liable to indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership and the other Partners form all cost, liability, and damage that any of such indemnified Persons may incur (including, without limitation, incremental tax liability and lawyers’ fees and expenses) as a result of such Transfer or attempted Transfer and efforts to enforce the indemnity granted hereby.

11.5 Termination of Status as General Partner.

(a) Cessation of General Partner - A General Partner shall cease to be a General Partner upon the first to occur of (i) the Bankruptcy of such Partner, (ii) the Transfer of such Partner’s General Partner’s Interest, provided that the transferee of such General Partner’s Interest is admitted as a substituted General Partner pursuant to Section 11.3(b) - Admission of General Partner’s Transfer of this Agreement, (iii) the involuntary Transfer by operation of law of such Partner’s General Partner’s Interest, (iv) the vote of a majority in interest of the Limited Partners to remove such General Partner after such General Partner has attempted to make a Transfer of its General Partner’s Interest that is not permitted by Section 11.3 Permitted Transfers, committed a material breach of this Agreement, committed any other act or suffered any other condition that would justify a decree of dissolution of the Partnership under the laws of the State of Texas, or, in the case of a corporate General Partner, there is a Change in Control of the General Partner. In the event a Person ceases to be a General Partner without having Transferred its entire General Partner’s Interest, such Person shall be treated as a unadmitted transferee of a Partnership interest as a result of an unpermitted Transfer of an interest pursuant

to Section 10.2 Disclosures, Limitations and Exceptions. If a General Partner withdraws in violation of this Agreement, the Partnership Interest held by such Partner as a General Partner shall automatically be converted to that of a Limited Partner effective immediately after the successor of a new General Partner. The resulting Limited Partner Interest of the withdrawn General Partner may be reduced pro rata with all other Partners to provide compensation or an interest in the Partnership. The withdrawn General Partner shall, thereafter, have no voting rights in the Partnership. The Partnership shall have the unilateral option to acquire the entire interest of the withdrawn General Partner under the same terms and conditions specified in Section 10.2(f) - Acquisition of an Interest Conveyed to Another Without Authority, as if the withdrawn General Partner were a transferee of an interest conveyed without authority.

If a General Partner ceases to be a Partner for any reason hereunder, such Person shall continue to be liable as a Partner for all debts and obligations of the Partnership existing at the time such Person ceases to be a General Partner, regardless of whether, at such time, such debts or liabilities were know or unknown, actual or contingent. A Person shall not be liable as General Partner for Partnership debts and obligations arising after such Person ceases to be a General Partner. Any debts, obligations, or liabilities in damages to the Partnership of any Person who ceases to be a General Partner shall be collectible by any legal means and the partnership is authorized, in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity, to apply any amounts otherwise distributable or payable by the Partnership to such Person to satisfy such debts, obligations, or liabilities.

(b) Effect on Dissolution - It is the intention of the Partners that the Partnership not dissolve as a result of the cessation of any General Partner’s status as a General

Partner; provided, however, that if it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the partnership has dissolved, the provisions of Section 12.1 Liquidating Events shall govern.

(c) No Effect In Limited Interests - If at the time a Person ceases to be a General Partner such Person is also a Limited Partner with respect to an Interest other than its General Partner’s Interest, such cessation shall not affect such Person’s rights and obligations with respect to such Interest.

ARTICLE XII
DISSOLUTION AND WINDING UP

12.1 Liquidating Events. The Partnership shall dissolve and commence winding up and liquidating upon the first to occur of any of the following (“Liquidating Events”):

(a) Withdrawal - An event of withdrawal of a General Partner described in Section 4.02 of the Limited Partnership Act, except that any event described in Subsection (4), (5), (7), (8) and (9) of Section 4.02 of the Limited Partnership Act shall not be an event of withdrawal.

(b) Expiration Term - The expiration of the term provided in Section 2.6 Term;

(c) Unanimous Vote - The unanimous vote of the Partners to dissolve, wind up, and liquidate the Partnership;

(d) Other Events - The happening of any other event that makes it unlawful, impossible, or impractical to carry on the business of the Partnership; or

The Partners hereby agree that, notwithstanding any provision of the Limited Partnership Act, the Partnership shall not dissolve prior to the occurrence of a Liquidating Event. Upon the occurrence of any event set forth in this Section 12.1(d), the partnership shall not be dissolved or required to be wound up if at the time of such event there is at least one (1) remaining General

Partner and that General Partner carries on the business of the Partnership (any such remaining General Partner being hereby authorized to carry on the business of the Partnership), or within ninety (90) days after such event all of the remaining Partners agree in writing to continue the business of the Partnership and to the appointment, effective as of the date of such event, of one or more additional General Partners. If it is determined, by a court of competent jurisdiction, that the Partnership has dissolved prior to the occurrence of an event specified in this Section 12.1(d) hereof, the Partners fail to agree to continue the business of the Partnership as provided in this Section 12.1, then within an additional ninety (90) days, all of the Partners may elect to reconstitute the Partnership and continue its business on the same terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement by forming a new limited partnership on terms identical to those set forth in this Agreement and having as a General Partner a Person elected by unanimous vote. Unless such an election is made within one hundred eighty (180) days after the event causing dissolution, the Partnership shall wind up its affairs in accordance with Section 12.2 - Winding Up. If such election is made within one hundred eighty (180) days after the event causing dissolution, then:

(i) the reconstituted limited partnership shall continue until the occurrence of a Liquidating Event as provided in this Section 12.1;

(ii) if the successor General Partner is not the former General Partner, then the interest of the former General Partner shall be treated thenceforth as an unadmitted transferee of a General Partner’s Interest as a result of an unpermitted Transfer of an Interest pursuant to Section 11.4 Prohibited Transfers; and

(iii) all necessary steps shall be taken to cancel this Agreement and the Certificate and to enter into a new Partnership Agreement and Certificate of Limited

Partnership, and the successor General Partner may for this purpose exercise the powers of attorney granted the General Partner pursuant to Article XIII Power of Attorney, provided that the right of all of the Partners to select a successor General Partner and to reconstitute and continue the business of the Partnership shall not exist and may not be exercised unless the Partnership has received an opinion of counsel that the exercise of the right would not result in the loss of limited liability of any Limited Partners and neither the Partnership nor the reconstituted Partnership would cease to be treated as a Partnership for federal income tax purposes upon the exercise of such right to continue.

12.2 Winding Up. Upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the Partnership shall continue solely for the purposes of winding up its affairs in an orderly manner, liquidating its assets, and satisfying the claims of its creditors and Partners and no Partners shall take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, the winding up of the Partnership’s business and affairs, provided that all covenants contained in this Agreement and obligations provided for in this Agreement shall continue to be fully binding upon the Partners until such time as the Partnership Property has been distributed pursuant to this Section 12.2 and the Partnership has terminated. The General Partners (or, in the event there is no remaining General Partners, any Person elected by a majority in interest of the Limited Partners) shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and dissolution of the Partnership and shall take full account of the Partnership’s liabilities and Property and the Partnership Property shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof, and the proceeds therefrom, to the extent sufficient therefor, shall be applied and distributed in the following order:

(a) First, to the payment and discharge of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to creditors other than the General Partner,

(b) Second, to the payment and discharge of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to the General Partner;

(d) The balance, if any, to the Partners in accordance with their Capital Accounts, after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all periods.

No General Partner shall receive any additional compensation for any services performed pursuant to this Article XII.

12.3 Compliance With Timing Requirements of Regulations. In the event the Partnership is “liquidated” within the meaning of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g) of the Regulations, (1) distributions shall be made pursuant to this Article XII to the Partners who have positive Capital Accounts in compliance with Section 1 .704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(b)(2) of the regulations, and (2) if the General Partner’s Capital Account has a deficit balance (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), the General Partner shall contribute to the capital of the Partnership the amount necessary to restore such deficit balance to zero in compliance with Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(3) of the Regulations. If any Limited partner has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), such Limited Partner shall have no obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Partnership with respect to such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, and such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit shall not be

considered a debt owed to the Partnership or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever. In the discretion of the General Partner, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made of the Partners pursuant to this Article XII may be:

(a) distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the Partners for the purposes of liquidating Partnership assets, collecting amounts owed to the Partnership, and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership or of the General Partner arising out of or in connection with the Partnership. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the Partners from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the General Partner, in the same proportions as the amount distributed to such trust by the Partnership would otherwise have been distributed to the Partners pursuant to this Agreement; or

(b) withheld to provide a reasonable reserve for Partnership liabilities (contingent or otherwise) and to reflect the unrealized portion of any installment obligations owed to the Partnership, provided that such withheld amounts shall be distributed to the Partners as soon as practicable.

12.4 Deemed Distribution and Recontribution. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article XII, in the event the Partnership is liquidated within the meaning of Section 1.704I (b)(2)(ii)(g) of the Regulations but no Liquidating Event has occurred, the Partnership Property shall not be liquidated, the Partnership’s liabilities shall not be paid or discharged, and the Partnership affairs shall not be wound up. Instead, solely for federal income tax purposes, the Partnership shall be deemed to have distributed the Partnership Property in kind to the Partners, who shall be deemed to have assumed and taken subject to all Partnership liabilities, all in accordance with their respective Capital Accounts. Immediately thereafter, the Partners shall be

deemed to have recontributed the Partnership Property in kind to the Partnership, which shall be deemed to have assumed and taken subject to all such liabilities.

12.5 Rights of Partners. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, (1) each Partner shall look solely to the assets of the Partnership for the return of its Capital Contribution and shall have no right or power to demand or receive property other than cash from the Partnership, and (2) no Partners shall have priority over any other Partners as to the return of its Capital Contributions, distributions, or allocations.

12.6 Notice of Dissolution. In the event a Liquidating Event occurs or an event occurs that would, but for provisions of Section 12.1 Liquidating Events, result in a dissolution of the Partnership, the General Partner shall, within thirty (30) days thereafter, provide written notice thereof to each of the Partners and to all other parties with whom the Partnership regularly conducts business (as determined in the discretion of the General Partner) and shall publish notice thereof in a newspaper of general circulation in each place in which the Partnership regularly conducts business (as determined in the discretion of the General Partner).

(c) shall survive the Bankruptcy, dissolution, or cessation of existence of a Limited Partner and shall survive the delivery of an assignment by a Limited Partner of the whole or a portion of its Interest in the Partnership, except that where the assignment is of such Limited Partner’s entire interest in the Partnership and the assignee, with the consent of the General Partner, is admitted as a substituted Limited Partner, the power of attorney shall survive the delivery of such assignment for the sole purpose of enabling any such attorney-in-fact to effect such substitution.

14.3 Construction. Every covenant, term, and provision of this Agreement shall be construed according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against any Partners. The terms of this Agreement are intended to embody the economic relationship among the Partners and shall not be subject to modification by or conform with any actions by the Internal Revenue Service, except as this Agreement may be explicitly so amended and except as may relate specifically to the filing of tax returns.

14.4 Headings. Section and other headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and are not intended to scribe, interpret, define, or limit the scope, extent, or intent of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

14.5 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term hereof, such provision shall be fully severable; and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof; and the remaining provisions

hereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom. Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provisions there shall be added automatically as part of this Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable and that shall not be more restrictive than the one severed herefrom.

14.12 Specific Performance. Each Partner agrees with the other Partners that the other Partners will be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that monetary damages will not provide an adequate remedy in such event. Accordingly, it is agreed that in addition to any other remedy to which the nonbreaching Partners may be entitled, at law or in equity, the nonbreaching Partners shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and specifically to enforce the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having subject matter jurisdiction thereof.

14.13 Offset. In the event that any sum is payable to any Partner pursuant to this Agreement, any amounts owed by such Partner to the Partnership shall be deducted form said sum before payment to such Partner.

14.14 Independent Conduct. Each of the Partners and respective Affiliates reserve and retain the right to engage in all businesses and activities of any kind whatsoever (irrespective of whether same may be in competition with the business and activities of the Partnership) and to acquire and own all assets however acquired and wherever situated, and to receive compensation or profit therefrom, for its own respective account and without in any manner being obligated to disclose such business and activities or assets or compensation or profit to the other Partners or to the Partnership.
