ORGANIZATIONAL MATTERS
Section 2.1    Continuation of the Partnership. The Partners hereby agree to continue the Partnership as a limited partnership pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement (which shall amend and restate the Initial Agreement in its entirety) and the Act, as the same may be amended from time to time. The rights and liabilities of the Partners shall be as provided in the Act, except as otherwise expressly provided herein to the maximum extent permitted by the Act. The Partners intend for this Agreement to supersede and replace the Initial Agreement in its entirety. The Partners intend that the Partnership not be a joint venture, and that no Partner be a joint venturer of any other Partner by virtue of this Agreement for any purpose, and neither this Agreement nor any other document entered into by the Partners relating to the subject matter hereof shall be construed to suggest otherwise.
Section 2.2    Tax Treatment. The Partners recognize and intend that the Partnership shall be classified as a partnership for United States federal and, if applicable, state or local income tax purposes, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section ###-###-####-3, or a similar provision or election under any analogous provision for the purposes of state or local law, and to the extent necessary, the Partnership or the Partners (as appropriate) will make any election necessary to obtain treatment consistent with the foregoing. Each Partner and the Partnership shall file all tax returns and shall otherwise take all tax and financial reporting positions in a manner consistent with such treatment. The Partners agree that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the rights of the Class A Limited Partners, the Class B Limited Partners and the Class D Limited Partners to receive distributions shall be treated as rights to a distribution preference from the Partnership and not as guaranteed payments, and each Partner agrees that it will not take any position that is inconsistent with the foregoing treatment for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by a change in Law occurring after the date hereof, a closing agreement with an applicable Tax authority or a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Section 2.3    Name of the Partnership. The name under which the Partnership shall conduct its business is “White Eagle Asset Portfolio, LP”. The business of the Partnership may be conducted under any other name permitted by the Act as a Majority in Interest of the Partners may determine from time to time.
Section 2.4    Term. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the term of the Partnership shall continue until dissolved pursuant to ARTICLE VII hereof. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Partner expressly waives any right it might have to seek a judicial decree dissolving the Partnership.
Section 2.5    Principal Place of Business. The principal place of business and the office of the Partnership and the address where records are kept for inspection purposes is the office of the General Partner that is outside of the United States. The General Partner may (a) designate such other principal place of business or other places to be used as additional Partnership offices for the purpose of carrying on the business of the Partnership, provided that any such principal place of business shall be outside of the United States and (b) change the corporate form of the Partnership into another entity in which the limited partners, members or equityholders would have limited liability (including into an Irish ICAV) or redomicile the Partnership into another jurisdiction within or outside of the United States under which the applicable law provides for the Limited Partners to have limited liability; provided that, in each case with respect to clause (b), the General Partner shall: (i) consider the tax impact on each of the Limited Partners and (ii) provide the Class B Limited Partner with notice of such change as soon as reasonably practicable and the Class B Limited Partner shall thereafter be entitled to comment on the proposed change, which comments the General Partner shall consider in good faith.

Section 2.7    Names and Addresses of the Limited Partners. The name and business address of each Limited Partner is set forth on the attached Schedules A-1, B-1 and D-1, as the same may be amended from time to time to reflect transfers of Partnership Units as permitted by this Agreement.
Section 2.8    Treatment of Interest. Each Partner’s partnership interest in the Partnership shall constitute a “security” within the meaning of (i) Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code (including Section 8-102(a)(15) thereof) as in effect from time to time in the State of Delaware (6 Del. C. § 8-101, et seq.) and (ii) the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction that now or hereafter substantially includes the 1994 revisions to Article 8 thereof as adopted by the American Law Institute and the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws and approved by the American Bar Association on February 14, 1995 (and each partner interest in the Partnership shall be treated as such a “security” for all such purpose, including, without limitation perfection of the security interest therein under Article 8 and 9 of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code as the Partnership has “opted-in” to such provisions). The Partnership shall maintain books for the purpose of registering the transfer of the partner interests in the Partnership and all pledges of a partner interest, a Unit Certificate (as hereinafter defined) and the rights represented thereby shall be recorded on Schedule E hereto, as amended from time to time. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, a transfer of partnership interests requires delivery of an endorsed Unit Certificate (if the applicable Units are certificated) and shall be effective upon registration of such transfer in the books of the Partnership. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent with any no-waivable provision of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code (including Section 8-102(a)(15) thereof) as in effect from time to time in the State of Delaware (6 Del. C. § 8-101, et seq.), such provision of Article 8 shall control.

(iii)    Third, to the extent the Minimum Class B Interest Monthly Distribution is not paid to the Class B Limited Partner pursuant to the proviso at the end of Section 3.1(e) for the month immediately prior to such Distribution Date, then to the Class B Limited Partner the portion of the Minimum Class B Interest Monthly Distribution due on such Distribution Date and not paid from the Premium/Expense Reserve Account;

If a claim for indemnification under the Subscription Agreement or hereunder has been initiated by the Class A Limited Partner but has not been resolved as of the applicable Distribution Date or other date on which a payment is to be made to the Class B Limited Partner hereunder, the portion of such distribution or payment necessary to satisfy such indemnification claim shall be deposited into an escrow account and held until the date of such resolution and then released to the Class A Limited Partner, the Class B Limited Partner, or both, as the case may be, in accordance with such resolution. In addition, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, until the Class D Limited Partner has received the Class D Return and until all principal and accrued interest under the Advance Facility has been repaid in full, any and all amounts otherwise payable to the Class B Limited Partner under Section 3.2(b)(iii), (iv) or (v) shall be paid: first, 100% of such amounts shall be paid to the Class A Limited Partners in repayment of outstanding amounts under the Advance Facility together with interest thereon; second, 100% of such remaining amounts (if any) shall be paid to the Class D Limited Partner and applied towards the Class D Return, until the Class D Return is paid in full, and third, thereafter, such remaining amount (if any) shall be paid to the Class B Limited Partner.

(d)    Without limiting the foregoing, if the Class B Limited Partner has a good faith dispute as to the amount of any Indemnified Claim or other indemnity obligation, or any set off pursuant to Section 3.2(c) to satisfy any Indemnified Claim or other indemnity obligations, prior to commencing any litigation, for 30 days the General Partner, the Class A Limited Partner and the Class B Limited Partner shall engage in good-faith negotiations with respect to such dispute and the Partnership shall hold any amounts to be withheld or set off from the distributions to the Class B Limited Partners in escrow for such 30-day period, except to the extent such funds are necessary to satisfy any Indemnified Claims then due and owing by the Partnership. If any such dispute is not resolved within such 30-day period, the Partnership shall have the right to apply or distribute such escrowed funds to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties on account of the Indemnified Claims.
(e)    On each Distribution Date, the General Partner shall deliver or cause to be delivered a report that sets forth the calculations for the amounts paid pursuant to Section 3.2(b), the Class A Minimum Return Cumulative Amount, the Minimum Class B Interest Monthly Distribution (including any portion due to the Class D Limited Partner), the Class A True Up Payments, the Class B True Up Payments, the Class D Return and the Total Return Distributions for such month, which shall be binding on the parties absent manifest error.
(f)    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Partnership shall not, and the General Partner shall not cause or permit the Partnership to, make a distribution to any Partner on account of its interest in the Partnership if such distribution would (i) violate the Act or other applicable law or (ii) breach or violate any agreement, including any loan agreement, to which the Partnership is a party.

The Manager is, to the extent of its rights and powers set forth in this Management Agreement, an independent agent of the Partnership for the purpose of the Partnership’s business.
(d)    The Partners acknowledge that the General Partner intends to conduct the affairs of the Partnership so as to avoid the Partnership being treated as having a permanent establishment in the United States, within the meaning of the tax convention between the United States and Ireland, and otherwise to operate in accordance with the guidelines in Annex B.

Net proceeds from such sales of Policies may, in the discretion of the General Partner, be used to purchase additional Policies. So long as the General Partner notifies each of the Limited Partners in writing on or prior to the date one or more Policies are sold, the General Partner shall have ten Business Days from the day on which the applicable proceeds from such sale have been credited to the Collections Account in which to determine whether to purchase additional Policies with such proceeds, and during such ten Business Day-period (or such longer period as is necessary to complete the purchase of additional Policies, if the General Partner determines to do so), such proceeds shall remain in the Collections Account and shall not be distributed pursuant to Section 3.2(b)). Any portion of such proceeds not used to purchase additional Policies shall be distributed pursuant to Section 3.2(b) and, in such case, shall be included in calculating cumulative cash flows from the Effective Date for the purpose of determining the Class A Minimum Return Cumulative Amount, the Class A True Up Payment, the Class B True Up Payment, the Minimum Class B Interest Monthly Distributions, the Class D Return and the Total Return Distributions.

Any lapse of Policies with death benefits in excess of $ ** million in the aggregate and on a cumulative basis shall require the prior written consent of the Class B Limited Partner, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(g)    The General Partner shall provide or cause to be provided to the Partners with prompt notice of any sales of Policies or lapses of Policies pursuant to Section 4.1(e) or 4.1(f), and shall modify Annex A after each such sale or lapse of a Policy by removing the same from Annex A. On and after each modification of Annex A, the General Partner shall use such modified Annex A to calculate the Class A Minimum Return Cumulative Amount.
(h)    The General Partner shall deliver the Budget for a Fiscal Year no later than 30 days prior to the commencement of such Fiscal Year. The Budget for each year shall require approval by at least a Majority in Interest in such holders’ sole discretion. The Class B Limited Partner shall be entitled to review and provide comments on the Budget, which the General Partner shall consider in good faith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any material increase over the prior year’s Budget not attributable to a cost of insurance increase, indemnification obligation, litigation expense or other necessary expense (as determined by the General Partner in its reasonable discretion) shall not be implemented if the Class B Limited Partner objects in writing to the General Partner to such increase within 10 days after receiving the proposed Budget from the General Partner. The General Partner may, in its reasonable discretion, modify the Budget for any Fiscal Year following the commencement of such Fiscal Year by providing notice of such modification to the Partners as soon as reasonably practicable; provided, however, that any such modification resulting in a material increase in expenditures (other than attributable to a cost of insurance increase, indemnification obligation, litigation expense or other necessary expense (as determined by the General Partner in its reasonable discretion)) over the Budget previously delivered by the General Partner for such Fiscal Year, shall not be implemented if the Class B Limited Partner reasonably objects in writing within 10 days after receiving the proposed modified Budget from the General Partner.

Any Transferee who desires to become a Substituted Limited Partner shall (i) deliver to the General Partner such information and opinions of counsel, execute such documents, and take such other action as the General Partner reasonably may deem appropriate with respect to such substitution, including the written acceptance and adoption by the Transferee of the provisions of this Agreement and the Act and the assumption by the Transferee of the obligations of its Transferor together with evidence that such Substituted Limited Partner can satisfy such Transferee’s obligations under this Agreement (which shall be reasonably acceptable to the General Partner) and (ii) pay all expenses incurred by the Partnership in connection with such Transfer and admission, including the cost of preparing and filing an amendment to the Certificate of Limited Partnership, if required, and such expenses shall not be deemed Capital Contributions by the Substituted Limited Partners. A Transferee shall be deemed admitted to the Partnership as a Substituted Limited Partner at the time such Transferee is listed on the Schedules attached hereto. The Partnership shall continue with the same basis and Capital Account for the Substituted Limited Partner that was attributable to his Transferor. The name, address and Percentage Interest of the Substituted Limited Partner shall be duly noted on the applicable attached Schedule.
(b)    Unless and until any assignee, transferee, heir or legatee becomes a Substituted Limited Partner (in accordance with Section 5.3(a)), his status and rights shall be limited to the rights of an assignee of a limited partner interest under Section 17-702 of the Act.
(c)    Upon the Transfer of all or part of an interest in the Partnership, at the request of the Transferee of the interest, the General Partner may, in its sole discretion, cause the Partnership to elect, pursuant to Section 754 of the Code or the corresponding provisions of subsequent law, to adjust the basis of the Partnership properties as provided by Sections 734 and 743 of the Code.
(d)    In the event of a Transfer by the Class B Limited Partner of its Class B Partnership Units hereunder, (i) the Transferee shall, in addition to its other obligations herein assume all of the Class B Limited Partner’s obligations under the Pledge Agreement and any indemnification obligations under the Subscription Agreement or this Agreement, and (ii) the consent and approval rights of the Class B Limited Partner contained in Section 2.10(a), Section 4.1(e), Section 4.1(f), and the Class B Limited Partner’ rights under Section 7.2, shall automatically and immediately terminate.
ARTICLE VI    

AMENDMENTS; MEETINGS
Section 6.1    Amendments to be Adopted Solely by the General Partner. The General Partner may, without the consent of any Limited Partner, amend any provision of this Agreement, and execute whatever documents may be required in connection therewith, to reflect:
(a)    any changes as a result of actions validly taken by the General Partner under Section 2.3, 2.5, 2.6 or 2.7;
(b)    the admission of Substituted Limited Partners in accordance with the terms of Section 5.3;
(c)    a change that is necessary to qualify the Partnership as a Limited Partnership under the laws of any state or that is necessary and advisable in the opinion of the General Partner to ensure that the Partnership will not be treated as an association taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes; or
(d)    any other amendments similar to the foregoing.
Section 6.2    Other Amendments. Amendments to this Agreement other than those described in Section 6.1 may be adopted by the affirmative vote of a Majority in Interest of the Partners. The General Partner may seek the written vote of the Limited Partners or may call a meeting.




Section 6.3    Amendments not Allowable. Unless otherwise approved by the Partner(s) affected thereby, no amendment to this Agreement shall be permitted if the effect of same would be to:
(a)    increase the duties or liabilities of the General Partner or of any Limited Partner; or
(b)    increase or decrease the interest of any Partner hereto in the assets, profits or losses of the Partnership.
Section 6.4    Meetings of the Partners.
(a)    Meetings of the Partners to vote upon any matters on which the Limited Partners are authorized to take action under this Agreement may be called by the General Partner or by the written request of Limited Partners holding not less than a Majority in Interest. Notice of the time and place of each meeting of the Partners shall be delivered to each Partner at least 10 but no more than 60 days prior to the date of the meeting. Notices shall state the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Notice need not be given to any Partner that submits a signed waiver of notice before or after the meeting or that attends the meeting without protesting at the beginning of the meeting the transaction of any business because the meeting was not lawfully called or convened. Notice of any adjourned meeting need not be given, other than by announcement at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken.
(b)    Each Partner’s vote shall be based on such Partner’s Percentage Interest. A Majority in Interest shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of the Partners, and, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, a resolution passed by a majority of the Partnership Units present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall constitute an action of the Partners hereunder. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Partners may be taken without a meeting if Partners holding the required number of votes consent in writing or by electronic transmission to the adoption of a resolution authorizing the action. The resolutions, written consents or electronic transmissions of the Partners shall be filed with the minutes of the Partnership. Such filing shall be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if the minutes are maintained in electronic form.
(c)    Limited Partners may vote in person or by proxy at any such meetings. Any or all Partners may participate in a meeting of the Partners by means of a conference telephone or other communications equipment allowing all Persons participating in the meeting to hear each other at the same time. Participation by such means shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.
(d)    Limited Partners entitled to vote shall be those shown on the records of the General Partner to be Limited Partners in good standing as of a date 10 days prior to the meeting or the effective date of any written authorization. Any Limited Partner who is in default under this Agreement shall not be entitled to vote and his Percentage Interest shall be excluded in calculating the percentage required for approval, unless and until the default is cured.
ARTICLE VII    

DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION
Section 7.1    Causes. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Partner expressly waives any right which it might otherwise have to dissolve the Partnership by affirmative vote or written consent of the partners or otherwise except as set forth in this Section 7.1. The Partnership shall be dissolved upon the first to occur of one of the following events:
(a)    prior to the ** anniversary of the Effective Date, upon the unanimous vote of the Limited Partners;
(b)    on or after the ** anniversary of the Effective Date, upon the vote of a Majority in Interest, subject to Section 7.2.
(c)    upon the entry of a judicial decree dissolving the Partnership; or
(d)    at any time there are no limited partners of the Partnership.
For the avoidance of doubt, the actions permitted to be taken by the General Partner pursuant to Section 2.5 shall not constitute a dissolution for purposes of this Article VII.

Section 7.2    Notice of Dissolution. Upon the dissolution of the Partnership in accordance with Section 7.1(c) or (d), or the passing of the resolutions pursuant to Section 7.1(a) or (b), the General Partner or the liquidating trustee, as the case may be, shall promptly notify the Partners of such dissolution. If, in accordance with Section 7.1(b), the holders of a Majority in Interest pass a resolution to dissolve the Partnership on or after the ** anniversary of the Effective Date, the General Partner shall notify the remaining Limited Partners thereof. If the Partnership shall be liquidated via a sale process, the General Partner shall notify the Class B Limited Partner of such sale process. **
Section 7.3    Liquidation. Upon dissolution of the Partnership, the General Partner or a liquidation trustee approved by the General Partner shall immediately commence to wind up the Partnership’s affairs; provided that a reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly liquidation of the assets of the Partnership and the discharge of liabilities to creditors so as to enable the Partners to minimize the normal losses attendant upon the liquidation. The Partners shall continue to share profits and losses during liquidation in the same manner as before liquidation. Each Partner shall be furnished with a statement prepared by the Partnership’s certified public accountant that shall set forth the assets and liabilities of the Partnership as of the date of dissolution. The proceeds of liquidation, all funds on deposit in the Collections Account and the Premium/Expense Reserve Account and all other funds of the Partnership shall be distributed, as realized, in the following order and priority:
(a)    If such liquidation takes place before the ** anniversary of the Effective Date, then such proceeds shall be distributed first to creditors, including Partners who are creditors (solely in their capacity as creditors), to the extent otherwise permitted by law, in satisfaction of liabilities of the Partnership (whether by payment or by establishment of reserves), and then pursuant to Section 3.2 (except that there shall be no distribution to the Premium/Expense Reserve Account).
(b)    If such liquidation takes place on or after the ** anniversary of the Effective Date, such proceeds shall be distributed as follows:
(i)    first, to creditors, including Partners who are creditors (solely in their capacity as creditors), to the extent otherwise permitted by law, in satisfaction of liabilities of the Partnership (whether by payment or by establishment of reserves); then
(ii)    to pay all outstanding expenses of the Partnership; then
(iii)    to pay to the Class A Limited Partner such amount that will result in it receiving a cash on cash internal rate of return of 11% as calculated by the General Partner; then
(iv)    to pay the Class D Limited Partner an amount equal to any unpaid amount of the Class D Return; then
(v)    subject to Section 3.2(c), to pay the Class B Limited Partner the Class B True Up Payment; and then
(vi)    in accordance with Section 3.2(b)(v).




(c)    Any net gain or loss realized by the Partnership on the sale or other disposition of Partnership assets in the process of liquidation of the Partnership shall be allocated to the Partners in the manner specified for allocating profits or losses in Article VIII.
(d)    For the purpose of determining the amount distributed to each Partner in a liquidation, any property distributed in kind shall be valued at Fair Market Value.
Section 7.4    Termination of Partnership. The Partnership shall terminate when all of the assets of the Partnership, after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Partnership, shall have been distributed to the Partners in the manner provided for in Section 7.3, and the Certificate of Limited Partnership shall have been cancelled in the manner required by the Act. Upon cancellation of the Certificate of Limited Partnership in accordance with the Act, this Agreement shall terminate.
Section 7.5    Return of Capital. The liquidators shall not be personally liable for the return of Capital Contributions or any portion thereof to the Limited Partners (it being understood that any such return shall be made solely from Partnership assets).
Section 7.6    HSR Act. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, in the event that the Hart‑Scott‑Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) is applicable to any Limited Partner by reason of the fact that any assets of the Partnership shall be distributed to such Limited Partner in connection with the dissolution of the Partnership, the dissolution of the Partnership shall not be consummated until such time as the applicable waiting periods (and extensions thereof) under the HSR Act have expired or otherwise been terminated with respect to each such Limited Partner.
ARTICLE VIII    

ALLOCATIONS AND TAX MATTERS
Section 8.1    Allocation of Net Income and Net Losses. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 8.2, Section 8.3, and Section 8.4, Net Income and Net Losses, and any items of income, gain, loss or deduction in respect thereof, for any Allocation Year shall be allocated to the Partners in such manner that, as of the end of such Allocation Year, the sum of (a) the Capital Account of each Partner, (b) such Partner’s share of minimum gain (as determined according to U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)) and (c) such Partner’s Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain shall be equal to the respective net amounts which would be distributed to such Partner under this Agreement, determined as if the Partnership were to (A) liquidate all of the assets of the Partnership for an amount equal to their Gross Asset Values and (B) distribute the proceeds pursuant to Section 7.3.
Section 8.2    Special Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made in the following order:
(a)    Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), notwithstanding any other provision of this ARTICLE VIII, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Allocation Year, each Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such Allocation Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Allocation Years) in an amount equal to such Partner’s share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g).Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Partner pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 8.2(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(b)    Partner Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), notwithstanding any other provision of this ARTICLE VIII, if there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any Allocation Year, each Partner who has a share of the Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such Allocation Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Allocation Years) in an amount equal to such Partner’s share of the net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Partner pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704‑2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 8.2(b) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(c)    Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in U.S. Treasury Regulations 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), items of Partnership income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the U.S. Treasury Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of the Partner as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 8.2(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that the Partner would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this ARTICLE VIII have been tentatively made as if this Section 8.2(c) were not in the Agreement.
(d)    Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Partner has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Allocation Year, each such Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in the amount of such deficit as quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 8.2(d) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Partner would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this ARTICLE VIII have been made as if Section 8.2(c) and this Section 8.2(d) were not in the Agreement.
(e)    Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any Allocation Year shall be specially allocated to the Partners in a manner permitted under U.S. Treasury Regulations and selected by the General Partner.
(f)    Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any Allocation Year shall be specially 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 U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(1).
(g)    Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted U.S. federal income tax basis of any Partnership asset, pursuant to Section 734(b) or Section 743(b) of the Code is required, pursuant to U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704 1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Partner in complete liquidation of such Partner’s interest in the Partnership, the amount of such adjustment to Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the U.S. federal income tax 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 accordance with their interests in the Partnership in the event U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Partner to whom such distribution was made in the event U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.
Section 8.3    Loss Limitation. Losses allocated pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII shall not exceed the maximum amount of losses that can be allocated without causing any Partner to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Allocation Year. In the event some but not all of the Partners would have Adjusted Capital Account Deficits as a consequence of an allocation of losses pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, the limitation set forth in this Section 8.3 shall be applied on a Partner by Partner basis and losses not allocable to any Partner as a result of such limitation shall be allocated to the other Partners in accordance with the positive balances in such Partner’s Capital Accounts so as to allocate the maximum permissible losses to each Partner under U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).
Section 8.4    Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Section 8.2(a), Section 8.2(b), Section 8.2(c), Section 8.2(d), Section 8.2(e), Section 8.2(f), Section 8.2(g) and Section 8.3 (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the Partners that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Partnership income, gain, loss, or deduction pursuant to this Section 8.4. Therefore, the General Partner shall make such offsetting special allocations of Partnership income, gain, loss, or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Partners Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Partner would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of the Agreement. In exercising its discretion under this Section 8.4, the General Partner shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Section 8.2(a) and Section 8.2(b) that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made under Section 8.2(e) and Section 8.2(f).
Section 8.5    Tax Allocations. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.5, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner as such items are allocated for book purposes under this ARTICLE VIII. In accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and the U.S. Treasury 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 U.S. federal income tax basis of such property to the Partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset Value (computed in accordance with the definition of Gross Asset Value herein) using “the remedial method” described by U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(d). In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (ii) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, 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 Section 704(c) of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations thereunder. Allocations pursuant to this Section 8.5 shall not be taken into account in computing any Partner’s Capital Account.
Section 8.6    Partnership Audits.
(a)    The General Partner (or such Person as may be designated by the General Partner) shall be designated, in the manner prescribed by applicable law, as the Partnership Representative and shall appoint or revoke the appointment of the Designated Individual. The Partnership Representative and Designated Individual (as relevant) shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Partnership in respect of Partnership tax audits. In the event the Partnership shall be the subject of an income tax audit by any U.S. federal, state or local authority, to the extent the Partnership is treated as an entity for purposes of such audit, including administrative settlement and judicial review, the Partnership Representative shall be authorized to act for the Partnership. All expenses incurred in connection with any such audit, investigation, settlement or review shall be borne by the Partnership. The Partnership Representative shall (i) keep the Partners informed as to the status of any tax audit, (ii) promptly deliver to the Partners copies of any substantive written communications or notices received by the Partnership Representative in connection with any such tax audit, and (iii) if the Partnership Representative intends to respond to such communications or notices, permit the Partners to provide comments thereto, which comments the Partnership Representative shall consider in good faith. The Partnership Representative shall give advance notice to the Partners of any tax audit, tax hearings or other proceedings relating to the tax matters of the Partnership and shall give prompt notice to the Partners upon the conclusion of any tax audit, tax hearings or other material proceedings relating to the tax matters of the Partnership and shall cooperate in good faith to provide information reasonably requested in respect thereof.
(b)    The Partners agree that, if the Partnership receives a notice of final partnership administrative adjustment that would, with the passing of time, result in an “imputed underpayment” imposed on the Partnership as that term is defined in Section 6225 of the Code, then the Partnership Representative may elect to apply the procedures in Section 6226 of the Code (the “Push-Out Election”) and the Partners agree to comply with all requirements and procedures in accordance therewith.
(c)    To the extent the Push-Out Election is not made, any taxes, penalties and interest payable by the Partnership as a result of a tax audit, inquiry or other proceeding in respect of taxes (“Partnership Level Taxes”) shall be treated as attributable to the Partners (or former Partners, as applicable), and the Partnership Representative shall allocate the burden of any such Partnership Level Taxes to those Partners (or former Partners, as applicable) to whom such amounts are reasonably attributable, taking into account the applicable allocation methodologies of this Agreement and the effect of any modifications described in Section 6225(c) of the Code that reduce the amount of Partnership Level Taxes. Any such modifications specifically attributable to a Partner’s tax status shall be allocated solely to such Partner for purposes of this Agreement, unless otherwise required by law. In the event that a Partner reasonably objects to the manner of any such allocation and the Partners are unable to agree upon such allocation (any such Partners, the “Disputing Partners”), any unresolved matters shall be resolved by an independent accounting firm that is mutually acceptable to the Disputing Partners. The costs of the independent accounting firm shall be borne equally by the Disputing Partners.
(d)    Partnership Level Taxes that are determined to be attributable to a Partner pursuant to Section 8.7 shall be allocated to such Partner (or to any transferee of such Partner to the extent that such Partner subsequently transferred its Partnership Interests to such transferee (a “Subsequent Transferee”)), and any such Partnership Level Tax shall (i) be deemed to have been distributed or paid to such Partner (or to any Subsequent Transferee), (ii) reduce the amount otherwise distributable to such Partner (or to any Subsequent Transferee) pursuant to this Agreement and (iii) without duplication, reduce the Capital Account of such Partner (or any Subsequent Transferee). Any transferring Partner and its Subsequent Transferees agree to jointly and severally indemnify the Partnership for any “imputed underpayment” (within the meaning of Section 6225 of the Code) that is attributable to the transferring Partner in respect of each taxable year in which the transferring Partner held an interest in the Partnership.
Section 8.7    Withholding and other Taxes.
(a)    If requested by the General Partner, in its reasonable discretion, each Limited Partner shall deliver to the General Partner: (i) an affidavit in form satisfactory to the General Partner stating whether or not such Partner (or its partners, members, shareholders or other direct or indirect beneficial owners as the case may be) is subject to tax withholding under the provisions of any federal, state, local, foreign or other law; (ii) any other certificates, forms, or instruments requested by the General Partner relating to such Limited Partner’s status under such laws; and/or (iii) any information reasonably requested by the General Partner in connection with applicable Partnership Audit Rules (including evidence, if applicable, of such Partner’s filing of tax returns and payment of tax) or Section 1446(f) of the Code. Each Limited Partner shall cooperate with the General Partner to the extent reasonably requested by it in connection with any tax structuring, tax audit, tax settlement or similar agreement, tax filings, tax elections, or other interaction with any taxing authority of or involving the Partnership or any of its existing or former investments. The obligations under this Section 8.7(a) shall survive the transfer, withdrawal or termination of an interest in the Partnership, and the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Partnership.
(b)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Partner hereby authorizes the Partnership to withhold and to pay over, or otherwise pay, any withholding or other taxes or governmental charges required to be paid by, or imposed on any accruals or receipts of, the Partnership or any of its Affiliates (pursuant to the Code or any provision of U.S., state or local or non-U.S. tax law) with respect to such Partner or as a result of such Partner’s participation in the Partnership or such Partner’s failure to provide the information specified in Section 8.7(a). If and to the extent that the Partnership shall be required to withhold or pay, or any accrual or receipts of the Partnership are subject to, any such withholding or other taxes or governmental charges, the applicable Partner shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have received a payment from the Partnership as of the time such withholding or other tax or governmental charge is required to be paid. To the extent that the aggregate of such deemed payments to a Partner for any period exceeds the distributions that such Partner would have received for such period but for such withholding, the Partnership shall notify such Partner as to the amount of such excess and such Partner shall make a prompt payment to the Partnership of such amount by wire transfer. Any withholdings by the Partnership referred to in this Section 8.7 shall be made at the applicable statutory rate under the applicable tax law unless the Partnership shall have received an opinion of counsel or other evidence, satisfactory to it, to the effect that a lower rate is applicable, or that no withholding is applicable.
(c)    Each Partner shall bear the economic burden of any and all losses, costs, claims, judgments, damages, settlement costs, fees or related expenses (including attorneys’ fees and fines) arising out of any alleged or actual act or omission to act with respect to any tax payment or governmental charge (including pursuant to the Partnership Audit Rules and the Tax Reporting Rules), withholding, deduction or special allocation made by the Partnership, its subsidiaries or any withholding agent to the extent attributable to such Partner pursuant to this Section 8.7 (provided that the Partnership or relevant withholding agent was not found guilty of fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct by a court of competent jurisdiction). The obligation provided for in this Section 8.7(c) shall survive the Transfer, withdrawal or termination of an Interest in the Partnership, and the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Partnership.
(d)    Any and all payments made under or allocations with respect the Advance Facility or with respect to the Class D Units shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then the Class B Limited Partner or the Partnership, as applicable, shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law. The sum payable by the Class B Limited Partner or the Partnership, as applicable, shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made the Class A Limited Partner (or the transferee/assignee of the Advance Facility or the Class D Units, as applicable) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made, unless on the date on which the payment falls due the payment could have been made to the Class A Limited Partner (or the transferee/assignee of the Advance Facility or the Class D Units, as applicable) without such deduction or withholding tax if the Class A Limited Partner (or the transferee/assignee of the Advance Facility or the Class D Units, as applicable) had been a Qualifying Lender, but on the date on which the payment falls due the Class A Limited Partner (or the transferee/assignee of the Advance Facility or the Class D Units, as applicable) is not or ceased to be a Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date of this Agreement in any law or treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority. In the event the Class B Limited Partner intends to withhold any amounts pursuant to this Section 8.7(d), it shall give prior notice to the applicable recipient and shall cooperate in good faith with such recipient to reduce or eliminate such withholding.
ARTICLE IX    

INDEMNIFICATION
Section 9.1    Indemnification.
(a)    No Partner shall be liable to the Partnership or to any other Partner for monetary damages for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising from any act or omission performed or omitted by it arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Partnership’s business or affairs, except for any such loss, claim, damage or liability primarily attributable to such Partner’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, in each case as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable decision. The Partnership shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Partner and its Affiliates and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, members, partners, advisors, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Covered Person may become subject in connection with any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Partnership’s business or affairs, except for any such loss, claim, damage or liability primarily attributable to such Covered Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, in each case as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable decision. If any Covered Person becomes involved in any capacity in any action, proceeding or investigation in connection with any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Partnership’s business or affairs, the Partnership shall reimburse such Covered Person for its reasonable and documented legal and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the cost of any investigation and preparation) as they are incurred in connection therewith; provided that such Covered Person shall promptly repay to the Partnership the amount of any such reimbursed expenses paid to it if it shall ultimately be determined that such Covered Person was not entitled to be indemnified by the Partnership in connection with such action, proceeding or investigation. If for any reason (other than the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Covered Person, in each case as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable decision) the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to such Covered Person, or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Partnership shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Covered Person as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Partnership on the one hand and such Covered Person on the other hand or, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to above but also any other relevant equitable considerations. The provisions of this Section 9.1(a) shall survive for a period of six years from the date of dissolution of the Partnership; provided that (i) if at the end of such period there are any actions, proceedings or investigations then pending, any Covered Person may so notify the Partnership and the other Partners at such time (which notice shall include a brief description of each such action, proceeding or investigation and the liabilities asserted therein) and the provisions of this Section 9.1(a) shall survive with respect to each such action, proceeding or investigation set forth in such notice (or any related action, proceeding or investigation based upon the same or similar claim) until such date that such action, proceeding or investigation is finally resolved and (ii) the obligations of the Partnership under this Section 9.1(a) shall be satisfied solely out of Partnership assets and no Covered Person shall have any personal liability on account thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the obligations of the Partnership or any Covered Person under this Section 9.1(a) shall (a) be in addition to any liability which the Partnership or such Covered Person may otherwise have and (b) inure to the benefit of such Covered Person, its Affiliates and their respective members, directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates and any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of such Persons. The foregoing provisions of this Section 9.1(a) shall survive any termination of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.1(a) does not limit, reduce or otherwise modify the indemnification obligations of the Class B Limited Partner under the Subscription Agreement.
(b)    Priority.
(i)    The Partnership and the Partners hereby agree that the obligation of the Partnership under this Section 9.1 (such obligations, the “Partnership Indemnification Obligations”) to indemnify or advance expenses to any Person for the matters covered hereby shall be the primary source of indemnification and advancement of expenses for such Person in connection therewith and any obligation on the part of a Partner or any of its Affiliates (an “Upstream Indemnifying Party”) with respect thereto (such obligation, a “Partner Indemnification Agreement”) shall be secondary to the Partnership Indemnification Obligations. In the event that the Partnership fails to indemnify or advance expenses to any Person as required or contemplated by this Agreement (such amounts the “Unpaid Indemnity Amounts”) and an Upstream Indemnifying Party makes any payment to such Person in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses under any Partner Indemnification Agreement on account of such Unpaid Indemnity Amounts, such Upstream Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the rights of such Person under this Section 9.1 or any similar arrangement or agreement for indemnification or advancement of expenses by the Partnership or the Partnership’s Subsidiaries (a “Partnership Indemnification Agreement”).
(ii)    The Partnership hereby agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, its obligation to indemnify a Person under this Section 9.1 or any Partnership Indemnification Agreement shall include any amounts expended by an Upstream Indemnifying Party under any Partner Indemnification Agreement in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses to any Person in connection with a Proceeding involving his or her service as a director, officer and employee of the Partnership, or director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries.
(iii)    The right to indemnification and the advancement and payment of expenses conferred in this Section 9.1 shall not be exclusive of any other right that a Covered Person may have or hereafter acquire under any law (common or statutory) or provision of this Agreement or otherwise.
(iv)    The indemnification and other rights described in this Section 9.1 are for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the Persons identified in this Section acting in the capacities described therein and not in any other capacity.
Section 9.2    Insurance. The Partnership shall maintain insurance, at its expense, on its own behalf and on behalf of any Covered Person against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, whether or not the Partnership would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under Section 9.1.
Section 9.3    Merger or Consolidation; Other Enterprises. For purposes of this ARTICLE IX, references to “the Partnership” shall include, in addition to the resulting company, any constituent company (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its managers, directors, officers, employees or agents, so that any Person who is or was a manager, director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent company, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this ARTICLE IX with respect to the resulting or surviving company as he or she would have with respect to such constituent company if its separate existence had continued. For purposes of this Section 9.3, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a Person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Partnership” shall include any service as a manager, director, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership that imposes duties on, or involves services by, such manager, director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a Person who acted in good faith and in a manner such Person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership” as referred to in this Section 9.3.
ARTICLE X    

MISCELLANEOUS
Section 10.1    Waiver of Partition; Nature of Interest. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Partner (and any additional partner admitted hereunder) hereby irrevocably waives any right or power that such Person might have to cause the Partnership or any of its assets to be partitioned, to cause the appointment of a receiver for all or any portion of the assets of the Partnership, to compel any sale of all or any portion of the assets of the Partnership pursuant to any applicable law or to file a complaint or to institute any proceeding at law or in equity to cause the dissolution, liquidation, winding up or termination of the Partnership. No Partner shall have any interest in any specific assets of the Partnership, and no Partner shall have the status of a creditor with respect to any distribution pursuant to Section 3.2. The interest of the Partners in the Partnership is personal property.
Section 10.2    Confidentiality.
(a)    Each Limited Partner agrees that such Limited Partner shall keep confidential, and shall not disclose to any third Person, without the prior written consent of the General Partner, any non-public information with respect to the Partnership (including any Person in which the Partnership holds, or contemplates acquiring, an investment) that is in such Limited Partner’s possession on the date hereof or disclosed to such Limited Partner by or on behalf of the Partnership, including the terms of this Agreement, the Parties to this Agreement and any rights or obligations of the Parties hereto, any information relating to the Policies and the assets of the Partnership and Protected Personal Data; provided that such Limited Partner may disclose any such information (i) as has become generally available to the public without a breach of this Agreement by such Limited Partner; (ii) to its equity holders (including the Partner's direct and indirect limited partners and investors) and their respective Affiliates, and its and their respective Affiliates, members, partners, actual or potential investors, directors, managers, officers, employees, professional advisers and lenders who need to know such information, upon notification to such Persons that such disclosure is made in confidence and shall be kept in confidence; (iii) to the extent required in order to comply with reporting obligations to its partners who have agreed to keep such information confidential; (iv) to the extent necessary in order to comply with any applicable Securities Laws of the United States, any state or territory thereof or any other jurisdiction in which such Limited Partner is organized, located or has material operations or with any other law, order, regulation, ruling or stock exchange rules applicable to such Limited Partner (including the U.S. Freedom of Information Act, or any similar statutory or regulatory disclosure requirement of any state or other jurisdiction); and (v) as may be required in response to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, it being agreed that, unless such information has been generally available to the public without a breach of this Agreement by such Limited Partner, if such information is being requested pursuant to a summons or subpoena or a discovery request in connection with a litigation, in each case to the extent permitted by law, (x) such Limited Partner shall give the General Partner notice of such request and shall cooperate with the General Partner at the General Partner’s request (provided that such cooperation is permitted by law) so that the General Partner may, in its discretion, seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy, if available, and (y) in the event that such protective order is not obtained (or sought by the General Partner after notice), such Limited Partner (A) shall furnish only that portion of the information which, in accordance with the advice of counsel, is legally required to be furnished and (B) will exercise its reasonable efforts to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded such information.
(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained in this Agreement or elsewhere to the contrary, each Limited Partner (and any employee, representative or other agent thereof) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of, and all tax strategies relating to, the Partnership, the Limited Partner’s ownership of an interest in the Partnership, and any Partnership transaction, and all materials of any kind (including opinions and other tax analyses) that are provided to the Limited Partner relating to such tax treatment, tax structure and tax strategies. For this purpose, “tax structure” means any facts relevant to the tax treatment of the Partnership, the Limited Partner’s ownership of an interest in the Partnership, and any Partnership transaction, and does not include information relating to the identity of the Partners or their respective Affiliates. Nothing in this ‎Section 10.2(b) shall be deemed to require the General Partner to disclose to any Limited Partner any information that the General Partner is permitted or is required to keep confidential in accordance with this Agreement or otherwise.
(c)    Without limitation of the foregoing, each Limited Partner acknowledges that notices and reports to Limited Partners may contain material non-public information concerning, among other things, direct and indirect investments of the Partnership, and agrees (i) to use any information provided to it by the Partnership only to monitor and manage its interest in the Partnership, and (ii) not to trade in securities on the basis of any material non-public information provided to it by the Partnership. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Limited Partner acknowledges that the Partnership may have access to Protected Personal Data, and no Limited Partner shall receive or obtain any Protected Personal Data except with the consent of the General Partner and subject to any restrictions on use or dissemination of such Protected Personal Data and any assurances that General Partner may reasonably request to ensure that such Protected Personal Data is kept confidential in accordance with applicable law.
Section 10.3    Benefits of Agreement; No Third-Party Rights. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any creditor of the Partnership or by any creditor of any of the Partners, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create any right in any Person not a party hereto, and this Agreement shall not be construed in any respect to be a contract in whole or in part for the benefit of any third person.
Section 10.4    Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered severable and if for any reason any provision or provisions herein are determined to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal under any existing or future law, such invalidity, unenforceability or illegality shall not impair the operation of or affect those portions of this Agreement which are valid, enforceable and legal.
Section 10.5    Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
Section 10.6    Binding Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Partners agree that this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Partners, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective executors, administrators, legal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and, except as otherwise provided herein, their respective executors, administrators, legal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns.
Section 10.7    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard to conflict of laws principles), all rights and remedies being governed by said laws. Any action or proceeding against the parties hereto relating in any way to this Agreement may be brought or enforced exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery or if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, then in any other state or federal court sitting in Wilmington, Delaware (and any appellate court therefrom), and the parties hereto irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of such courts in respect of any action or proceeding. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the parties hereto hereby authorizes and agrees to accept service of process sufficient for personal jurisdiction in any action against it in the manner contemplated by Section 10.9.
Section 10.8    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original of this Agreement and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
Section 10.9    Notices. Any notices required to be delivered hereunder shall be in writing and personally delivered, mailed or sent by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of rapid transmission, and shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt (i) in the case of a Partner, to such Partner at its address as listed on relevant Schedule attached hereto and (ii) in all other cases, at such other address as may be designated by written notice to the other party.
Section 10.10    Further Assurances. The General Partner agrees to execute, acknowledge, deliver, file, record and publish such further instruments and documents, and do all such other acts and things as may be required by law, or as may be required to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement.
