(ii) The net losses allocated pursuant to Subsection 7.1 (b)(i) hereof shall not exceed the maximum amount of net losses that can be so allocated without causing any Limited Partner who is not a General Partner to have a Capital Account deficit at the end of any fiscal year. In the event some but not all of the Limited Partners (excluding the General Partner) would have Capital Account deficits as a consequence of an allocation of net losses pursuant to Subsection 7.1 (b)(i), the limitation set forth in this Subsection 7.1 (b)(ii) shall be applied on a Limited Partner by Limited Partner basis so as to allocate the maximum permissible net loss to each Limited Partner who is not a General Partner under Section 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Regulations. All losses in excess of the limitation set forth in this Subsection 7.1 (b)(ii) shall be allocated to the General Partner.

(c) In the event the Capital Accounts of the Limited Partners are reduced to zero, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Subsection 7.1(b), an amount of net losses of the Partnership from operations as determined for Federal income tax purposes equal to (i) the Operating Deficit Loans made to the Partnership by the General Partner in that Fiscal Year, and/or (ii) optional loans made to the Partnership by any Partner(s) pursuant to Section 10 hereof in that Fiscal Year shall be allocated first to the General Partner and such Partner(s), in proportion to the principal amount of such loans; but all other Partnership net losses from operations as determined for Federal income tax purposes for that Fiscal Year shall be allocated in accordance with Subsection 7.1(b).

(d) All tax credits of the Partnership which give rise to valid allocations of Partnership loss or deduction will be allocated to the Partners in the same proportion as the loss and deduction giving rise to the credits are allocated to the Partners. Notwithstanding the foregoing, allocations of investment tax credits, if any, will be made in a manner consistent with governing Treasury Regulations.

7.2 Dissolution and Winding Up. All net gains and net losses of the Partnership, as determined for Federal income tax purposes, in connection with a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership and/or the dissolution and winding up of the Partnership, shall be allocated in the following order of priority:

(a) Allocation of Gains. Any net gains shall be allocated as follows:

(i) First, net gains shall be allocated to each Partner with a deficit Capital Account, in the same ratio as the deficit in such Partner’s Capital Account bears to the aggregate of all such deficits, until all such deficits are reduced to zero;

Page 10 of 30

(ii) Next, to each Limited Partner, to the extent his Capital Account, after the allocation described in Subsection 7.2(a) (1) above, is less than his Capital Investment (the “Capital Investment Deficit”), in the same proportions as the Capital Investment Deficit in each Limited Partner’s Capital Account bears to the aggregate Capital Investment Deficits of all such Limited Partners, until the Capital Investment Deficits of all Limited Partners are reduced to zero;

(iii) Next, to the General Partner, to the extent of its Capital Investment Deficit; and

(b) Allocation of Losses. Any net losses shall be allocated as follows:

(i) To the extent that the balance in the Capital Account of the Partners exceeds the amount of their Capital Investment (the “Excess Balances”) in proportion to such Excess Balances until such Excess Balances are reduced to zero;

(ii) Next, to the Partners pro rata in accordance with the positive balances in their Capital Accounts until the balances in their Capital Accounts shall be reduced to zero; and

7.3 Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Limited Partner (excluding the General Partner) unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Section 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 Limited Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, the Capital Account deficit of such Limited Partner as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Subsection 7.3 shall be made if and only to the extent that such Limited Partner would have a Capital Account deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Section 7 have been tentatively made without regard to this Subsection 7.3.

7.4 Minimum Gain.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Partnership fiscal year, each General Partner and Limited Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the portion of such person’s share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(2) that is allocable to the disposition of Partnership Property subject to Nonrecourse Liabilities, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(d) or (ii) if such person would otherwise have a Capital Account

Page 11 of 30

deficit at the end of such year, an amount sufficient to eliminate such Capital Account deficit. Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each General Partner and Limited Partner pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Section 1 .704-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. This Section 7.4(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in such section of the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. To the extent permitted by such section of the Treasury Regulations and for purposes of this Section 7.4(a) only, each Partner’s Capital Account deficit shall be determined prior to any other allocations pursuant to this Section 7 with respect to such fiscal year and without regard to any net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain during such fiscal year.

(b) Partner Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 7 except Section 7.4(a), if there is a net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any Partnership fiscal year, each person who has a share of the Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1 .704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the portion of such person’s share of the net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section l.704-2(i)(5), that is allocable to the disposition of Partnership Property subject to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(2), or (ii) if such person would otherwise have Capital Account deficit at the end of such year, an amount sufficient to eliminate such Capital Account deficit. Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each General Partner and Limited Partner pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Treasury Regulations. This Section 7.4(b) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in such section of the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. Solely for purposes of this Section 7.4(b), each Partner’s Capital Account deficit shall be determined prior to any allocations pursuant to this Section 7 with respect to such fiscal year, other than allocations pursuant to Section 7.4(a) hereof.

7.5 Allocation of Certain Nondeductible Expenses. Syndication expenses and costs and any other items which are paid by the Partnership and which are nondeductible and nonamortizable for Federal income tax purposes, shall be allocated in the manner provided in Subsection 7.1.

7.6 Minimum Allocation to General Partner. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, not less than one percent (1%) of the net income, net losses and credits from operations, and net gains and net losses from the dissolution and winding up of the Partnership shall, in all events, be allocated to the General Partner for each Fiscal Year, or part thereof, of the Partnership pursuant to this Section 7.

7.7 Recharacterization of Fees and Guaranteed Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Subsections 7.1 and 7.2, in the event any fees, interest or other amounts paid or

Page 12 of 30

payable to the General Partner or its Affiliates are deducted by the Partnership for United States Federal income tax purposes in reliance on Code Sections 707(a) or 707(c) (or would so be if such payee were a Partner) and such fees, interest or other amounts are disallowed as deductions to the Partnership and are recharacterized as Partnership distributions, then there shall be allocated to the General Partner, prior to the allocations otherwise provided in this Section 7, an amount of net profit from operations (and to the extent such profits from operations are not sufficient, net gains described in Subsection 7.2 hereof) for the Fiscal Year in which such fees, interest or other amounts are treated as Partnership distributions in an amount equal to such fees, interest or other amounts treated as distributions.

7.8 Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Limited Partner (excluding the General Partner) has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Partnership fiscal year that is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount such Limited Partner is obligated to restore and (ii) the amount such Limited Partner is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)( 1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), 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 Subsection 7.8 shall be made if and only to the extent that such Limited Partner would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Subsection 7 have been tentatively made without regard to Subsection 7.3 and this Subsection 7.8.

7.9 Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year or other period shall be specifically allocated to the Limited Partners in proportion to their Votes.

7.10 Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year or other period shall be specifically allocated to the Partner who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i).

7.11 Section 754 Adjustment. 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 Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m) to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, 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 a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such section of the Treasury Regulations.

7.12 Curative Allocations.

(a) The “Regulatory Allocations” consist of the “Basic Regulatory Allocations,” as defined in Subsection 7.12(b) hereof; the “Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations,” as defined in Subsection 7.12(c) hereof; and the “Partner Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations,” as defined in Subsection 7.12(d).

Page 13 of 30

(b) The “Basic Regulatory Allocations” consist of (1) allocations pursuant to the last sentence of Subsection 7.1(b) (ii) hereof, and (ii) allocations pursuant to Subsections 7.3, 7.8 and 7.11 hereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, other than the Regulatory Allocations, the Basic Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the General Partner and the Limited Partners so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of other items and the Basic Regulatory Allocations to each General Partner and Limited Partner shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such General Partner and Limited Partner if the Basic Regulatory Allocations had not occurred. For purposes of applying the foregoing sentence, allocations pursuant to this Subsection 7.12(b) shall only be made with respect to allocations pursuant to Subsection 7.11 hereof to the extent the General Partner reasonably determines that such allocations will otherwise be inconsistent with the economic agreement among the parties to this Agreement.

(c) The “Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations” consist of all allocations pursuant to Subsections 7.4(a) and 7.9 hereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, other than the Regulatory Allocations, the Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the General Partner and the Limited Partners so that, to the extent possible, the net amount or such allocations of other items and the Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations to each General Partner and Limited Partner shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such General Partner and Limited Partner if the Nonrecourse Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.
