The Partnership Agreement imposes certain restrictions on the General Partner with respect to the operation of the Partnership, including restrictions on causing the Partnership to engage in certain transactions with the General Partner or its affiliates or to receive loans from the Partnership. In addition, the Partnership Agreement imposes various affirmative duties on the General Partner. The General Partner is not required to manage the Partnership as its sole and exclusive function and is permitted to have other business interests and may engage in other activities to those relating to the Partnership. The Partnership Agreement provides, subject to certain requirements that the General Partner may be due certain fees, such as a disposition fee upon the sale of Partnership properties. The General Partner is indemnified from any claims or expenses arising out of, or relating to, serving as the General Partner, so long as such claims do not arise from fraudulent or criminal misconduct by the General Partner.

 

In addition to the General Partner, the Partnership Agreement provides for an advisory committee with that committee to review and advise on matters such as operational policies and practices of the Partnership, extraordinary transactions, transactions that may be present a conflict of interest, any compensation due the General Partner and to serve as the equivalent of an audit committee.
