ARTICLE 4 CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS; PARTNERS 4.1 Pre-Development Contributions. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending three months thereafter (the "Pre-Development Period"), the Partners hereby commit to make Capital Contributions to fund the Partnership's payment of third party costs and expenses set forth in the Pre-Development Budget; provided, however, that overhead and other costs expressly designated in the Pre-Development Budget as the separate costs of a Partner shall be borne solely by such Partner aid shall not be treated as a Capital Contribution hereunder. 4 4.2 Initial Capital Commitments. Upon the expiration of the Pre-Development Period, the Partners commit to make an aggregate of $2,000,000 in Capital Contributions (the "Initial Commitments" in accordance with their respective Unit Percentages. Such contributions shall be used to fund the operations of the Partnership. 4.3 Additional Capital Commitments. When the Initial Commitments have been funded by the Partners and the Partnership has a Capital Need (as defined below), there shall be successive additional rounds of commitments for Capital Contributions offered by the Partnership to the Partners ("Offered Commitments") and together with Initial Commitments, collectively the "Commitments"); provided, however, the aggregate Capital Contributions made by all Partners under all Commitments shall not exceed $10,000,000 without the prior express written consent of all Partners. Each such round shall be in increments of $2,000,000 in aggregate Offered Commitments and shall be offered as soon as practical upon a Capital Need. As used herein, a "Capital Need" shall be deemed to exist when (a) all then outstanding Commitments of the Partners have been fully funded and (b) the Partnership then needs additional funds (or reasonably anticipates the need for additional funds within 60 days) for its operations or to maintain reasonable reserves for such operations. Upon the occurrence of a Capital Need, an offering of a round of Offered Commitments may be commenced by any Partner upon such Partner giving written notice thereof to the other Partners and, once commenced, such offering shall continue for a period of 30 days thereafter (the "Offer Period"). With regard to each round of Offered Commitments, the General Partner must accept Offered Commitments in an amount equal to 1% of all Offered Commitments accepted by the Limited Partners and each Limited Partner shall have the right (but no obligation) to accept Offered Commitments in an amount equal to but not less than 49.5% of the Offered Commitments (which percentage may not correspond to then existing Unit Percentages, as adjusted). Each Limited Partner that desires (or is obligated) to accept Offered Commitments must give written notice of its acceptance to each other Partner and to the Partnership during the Offer Period. Unless a Limited Partner accepts Offered Commitments during the Offer Period in accordance with the foregoing, such Limited Partner shall be deemed to have rejected such Offered Commitments. If a Limited Partner rejects (or is deemed to have rejected) the Offered Commitments, the other Limited Partner may elect to accept all (but not less than all) of such rejected Offered Commitments by giving written notice thereof to the Other Partners on or before the expiration of 15 days after the end of the Offer Period. 4.4 Funding of Commitments. All Commitments made by the Partners pursuant to the provisions of this Article 4 shall be funded upon request by the General Partner (or its managers or officers) as necessary to fund the Partnership's operations and to maintain reasonable reserves for such operations. Each request for funding shall be given by the General Partner (or its managers or officers) to all other Partners at least five business days prior to the funding date. Each request for funding shall include the statement as to the intended use of the proceeds of such funding. 5 4.5 Binding Commitments; Default. All Commitments made by the Partners pursuant to the provisions of this Article 4 shall be irrevocable, binding commitments which shall be enforceable by the Partnership against the Partners making such Commitments. If a Partner does not fund a Commitment made by it in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the other Partners may (without any obligation) fund the unfunded portion of such Commitment. Any such funding shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all rights and remedies that the Partnership and the other Partners may be entitled to against the defaulting Partner pursuant to this Agreement, at law or in equity. 4.6 Adjustments to Units. As of any date (an "Adjustment Date") on which, in accordance with the foregoing, Capital Contributions are made by the Partners other than in accordance with their Unit Percentages, the Units of all Partners shall automatically (and without any further action by the Partners) be adjusted so that the number of Units held by each Partner shall be equal to 100 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the aggregate amount of Capital Contributions made by such Partner as of the Adjustment Date, and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate amount of Capital Contributions made by all Partners as of the Adjustment Date; it being understood that the total number of Units held by all Partners shall always equal 100. As of the date of each Adjustment Date, the Unit Percentage of each Partner shall also be adjusted based upon the adjusted number of Units held by each Partner. Promptly after each Adjustment Date, the General Partner shall amend Schedule A hereto to reflect the automatic adjustment of the number of Units and Unit Percentages as of each Adjustment Date (such adjustment shall nevertheless be effective as of the Adjustment Date regardless when Schedule A hereto is amended). 4.7 Schedule of Partners, Commitments; Contributions, Unit Ownership. The name, address, Commitments, Capital Contributions and Unit ownership of each Partner are set forth on Schedule A attached hereto. Schedule A hereto shall be amended by the General Partner to reflect the admission of additional or substituted Limited Partners and to reflect adjustments to Units, Unit Percentages, Commitments and Capital Contributions in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The General Partner shall amend Schedule A hereto pursuant to the power of attorney granted under Article 13 hereof to reflect any such adjustments. The Units owned by Partners hereunder shall not be represented by certificates. 4.8 No Third Party Beneficiaries. In no event shall a third party, including without limitation a creditor of the Partnership, be entitled to in any way rely upon or enforce the obligation of Partners to make future Capital Contributions. 4.9 Loans and Withdrawal of Capital Contributions. No Partner shall be permitted to borrow, or to make an early withdrawal of, any portion of the capital contributed by such Partner. 4.10 Limited Liability of Limited Partners. No Limited Partner shall be bound by or personally liable for the expenses, liabilities or obligations of the Partnership. 6 4.11 Limited Catch-Up Option. In the event that the Unit Percentages of the Limited Partners are adjusted pursuant to Section 4.6 as a result of one Limited Partner (the "Contributing Partner") making more Capital Contributions, in aggregate, than the other Limited Partner (the "Non-Contributing Partner"), the Non-Contributing Partner shall have a limited, one-time option (the "Option") to purchase a portion of the Contributing Partner's Units as provided in this Section. The Option shall be exercisable by the Non-Contributing Partner one time (but not more than one time) at any time prior to (but not after) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the initial effective date of this Agreement (the "Outside Date"). The Option may be exercised by the Non-Contributing Partner giving written notice of exercise to the Contributing Partner prior to the Outside Date. The purchase price of the Units purchasable pursuant to the Option shall be equal to the sum of (1) the Contributing Partner's Contribution Per Unit as of the date of exercise of the Option multiplied by the number of Units being purchased plus (ii) Applicable Interest. The maximum number of Units purchasable under the Option shall be equal to one-half the amount by which the number of Units owned by the Contributing Partner exceeds the number of Units owned by the Non-Contributing Partner; provided, however, in no event shall the number of Units purchasable under the Option exceed the number of Units which, if multiplied by the Contributing Partner's Contribution Per Unit, would equal $1,250,000. As used herein, "Applicable Interest" shall mean interest, at the following per annum rates compounded annually, applied to the amount of the short-fall in Capital Contributions being made up by the Non-Contributing Partner pursuant to the exercise of the Option on a first-in-first-out basis: the lesser of (i) the maximum lawful (non-usurious) rate and (ii) Prime Rate plus 1% for 0-6 months, Prime Rate plus 2% for 6-12 months, Prime Rate plus 6% for 12-18 months, Prime Rate plus 3% if more than 18 months. Due the complexity of the foregoing, the following example is included: Partner A has contributed $1.0 million in month one, $1.25 million in month 12 and $1.75 million in month 24; and Partner B has contributed $1.0 million in month one and $1.0 million in month 12 and $-0-in month 24. If the Option is exercised for 1/3 of the amount by which the number of Units owned by the Contributing Partner exceeds the number of Units owned by the Non-Contributing Partner in month 34, the exercise price would be calculated as follows: Total Capital Contributions: $4.0 million for Partner A; $2.0 million for Partner B Total Units/Unit Percentages: 66,667 Units/66,667% for Partner A; 33,333 Units/33,333% for Partner B Contribution Per Unit: $59,999.70 for Partner A, $60,000.60 for Partner B Option Price: (1/3 x 33,333 Units) x $59,999.70 = $666,656.67 Plus Applicable Interest (compounded annually) on $666,656.67: [(Prime Rate + 6%) on $250,000 for 22 months]+ [(Prime Rate + 2%) on $416,656.67 for 10 months] 7 If the Option is exercised, the closing of the transaction shall occur 15 days thereafter at the principal offices of the General Partner. At closing, the purchasing Partner shall pay, in cash, to the selling Partner, the applicable purchase price for the Units being purchased, and the selling Partner shall assign the Units being purchased to the purchasing Partner free and clear of all liens and encumbrances: other than those under this Agreement and the Ownership Restriction Agreement. If the Contributing Partner will incur a taxable gain (excluding any income associated with the interest portion of the purchase price under clause (ii) above) as a result of the sale of Units pursuant to the Option, the amount of the purchase price payable at closing by the Non-Contributing Partner shall be increased by an amount, if any, equal to (i) the then highest federal marginal corporate income tax rate applied to the amount of such gain less (ii) any savings or reduction of federal income tax resulting from any deduction or credit which (x) is allowed for federal income tax purposes and (y) decreased the federal income tax basis of the Units sold. The par-ties will reasonably cooperate with each other in determining the amount, if any, of any such gain, including any such determination that may be requested by the Non-Contributing Partner in anticipation of the possible exercise of the Option. If the parties determine that the Contributing Partner would incur such a taxable gain if the Option is exercised, then, upon the request of the Non-Contributing Partner, the parties will reasonably cooperate with each other to explore other means to achieve the same limited right to "catch up" on previously unfunded Capital Contributions that would not involve the Non-Contributing Partner having to pay an increased purchase price to cover the Contributing Partner's taxable gain; provided that any such alternative must be no less favorable, in economic terms and tax effects, to the Contributing Partner. One such alternative may be to allow Capital Contributions that are anticipated to be needed to fund the operations of the Partnership prior to the Outside Date to be made on a disproportionately increased basis by the Non-Contributing Partner with an corresponding special allocation or re-allocation to adjust the' relative Capital Account balances of the Contributing Partner and Non-Contributing Partner so that they are in the same proportion as Units after giving effect to such disproportionate contributions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the parties agree that the Non-Contributing Partner shall never be required or obligated to pay interest in excess of the maximum non-usurious interest rate as may be authorized by applicable law. It is the intention of the parties to conform strictly to the applicable laws which limit interest rates, and any of the provisions of this Agreement for interest (or which may be deemed to be interest), if and to the extent payable by the Non-Contributing Partner, shall be held to be subject to reduction to the maximum non-usurious interest rate allowed under said law. 8 ARTICLE 5 CAPITAL ACCOUNTS 5.1 Capital Accounts. A capital account ("Capital Account") shall be established for each Partner. A Partner's Capital Account shall be credited with the fair market value (as determined in the sole judgment of the General Partner) of property contributed and the amounts of cash contributed to the Partnership by such Partner and shall be credited or charged, as the case may be, with such Partner's share of Partnership items of book income, gain, loss and deduction for each fiscal year of the Partnership determined pursuant to Article 7 below. Each Partner's Capital Account shall be charged with the fair market value (as determined in the sole judgment of the General Partner) of any property distributed and the amount of cash distributed to such Partner. The respective Capital Accounts of the Partners shall not bear interest. 5.2 Adjustments to Capital Accounts Upon Revaluation of Property. Upon the occurrence of (a) the admission of an additional or substituted Limited Partner, (b) an extraordinary (as determined by the General Partner) distribution of property by the Partnership, or (c) the liquidation of the Partnership (each an "Adjustment Event"), then, upon any such event, the Gross Asset Value immediately before the Adjustment Event shall be determined. The property of the Partnership shall thereafter be treated as if it were sold by the Partnership and any gain or loss resulting therefrom shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with Article 7 hereof as of the date immediately before the Adjustment Event resulting in the valuation of Partnership assets. Such allocation of gain or loss shall thereafter be reflected in the Capital Accounts of the Partners for all purposes of this Agreement. Solely for purposes of determining adjustments to Capital Accounts, any net profit or net loss shall be determined using the Gross Asset Value rather than the adjusted tax basis of the property of the Partnership. 5.3 Compliance with Treasury Regulations. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Capital Accounts of the Partners shall be maintained in accordance with Treasury Regulations, as amended from time to time, and shall be adjusted as provided therein. ARTICLE 6 DISTRIBUTIONS Except as otherwise provided herein, Distributable Cash of the Partnership shall be distributed on a quarterly basis among the Partners pro rata in accordance with their Unit Percentages. The amount and timing of such distributions shall be determined by the General Partner. The General Partner shall have the absolute discretion to have any distribution treated as a return of capital. That portion of any distribution which is treated as a return of capital shall be made to the Partners ratably in proportion to their respective Capital Accounts immediately prior to the distribution. The General Partner and the Partnership shall incur no liability for making distributions in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, whether or not the General Partner or the Partnership have knowledge or notice of any transfer of ownership of any Units. 9 ARTICLE 7 ALLOCATIONS 7.1 Book Allocations. Except as otherwise provided herein or unless another allocation is required by the Code, Treasury Regulations, published revenue rulings or judicial decisions, all items of Partnership book income, gain, loss, deduction and credit shall be allocated among the Partners pro rata in accordance with their Unit Percentages in effect for the period during which such items accrue. for purposes of computing each item of book income, gain, deduction or loss, the determination, recognition and classification of such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for federal income tax purposes, 7.2 Tax Allocations. (a) Code Section 704(c). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Partner has contributed or is treated as contributing any property to the Partnership that has a Gross Asset Value that is in excess of or less than its adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes at the time of such contribution, then all gain, loss, and deduction with respect to the contributed property shall, solely for federal income tax purposes, be allocated among the Partners so as to take account of the variation between the adjusted basis of such property and its initial net asset value as required under Code Section 704(c). (b) Partnership Asset Adjustments. In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership Asset is adjusted under Section 5.2 hereof, subsequent allocations of Partnership income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such asset, as calculated for tax purposes, shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in accordance with the principals of Code Section 704(c) as is required pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i). (c) Consistent Allocation. Except as provided in Section 7.2(a) and (b), Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit, as calculated for tax purposes, shall be allocated among the Partners, to the extent possible, in accordance with the allocations of the items of Partnership book income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit allocated pursuant to Section 7.1. (d) Adjustments by the Partners. Any elections or other decisions related to Partnership tax allocations pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be made by the General Partner of the Partnership in a manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Partnership tax allocations pursuant to this Section 7.2 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 Partner's Capital Account or distributive share of the Partners items of Partnership book income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit or Partnership distributions to any of the Partners under this Agreement. 7.3 Transfer of Units. Unless otherwise unanimously agreed by the Partners, income, gain, loss, deduction or credit attributable to any Unit (or portion thereof) which has been transferred shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee equally among the days of the Partnership's fiscal year without regard to Partnership operations during such days. 10 ARTICLE 8 MANAGEMENT AND OPERATION OF BUSINESS 8.1 Management by General Partner.
