Amendments Meetings (a) Amendments with Consent of the General Partner. If at any time during the term of the Partnership the General Partner shall deem it necessary or desirable to amend this Agreement (including the Partnership's basic investment policies set forth in paragraph 3(b) hereof), such amendment shall be effective only if approved in writing by the General Partner and, except as specified in this sub-section (a), by Limited Partners owning more than 50% of the Units of Limited Partnership Interest then outstanding and if made in accordance with the Partnership Act. Any such supplemental or amendatory agreement shall be adhered to and have the same effect from and after its effective date as if the same had originally been embodied in and formed a part of this Agreement. The General Partner may amend this Limited Partnership Agreement without the consent of the Limited Partners in order (i) to clarify any clerical inaccuracy or ambiguity or reconcile any inconsistency (including any inconsistency between this Limited Partnership Agreement and the Memorandum); (ii) to delete or add any provision of or to the Limited Partnership Agreement required to be deleted or added by the staff of any federal or state agency; or (iii) to make any amendment to the Limited Partnership Agreement which the General Partner deems advisable (including but not limited to amendments necessary to effect the allocations proposed herein) provided that such amendment is not adverse to the Limited Partners, or is required by law. The General Partner may, however, change the trading policies in paragraph 3(b) of this Agreement without the approval of the Limited Partners when such change is deemed to be in the best interests of the Partnership. In addition, if the General Partner determines to offer Units to the public in the future, the General Partner may amend this Agreement as necessary to effect such public offering without obtaining the consent of the Limited Partners, provided, however, that such amendments are deemed to be in the best interests of the Limited Partners. Amendments that are consistent with the North American Securities Administrators Association's Guidelines for the Registration of Commodity Pools will be presumed to be in the best interests of the Limited Partners.
JSC Meetings The JSC will meet at least [**], or more or less frequently as mutually agreed by the Parties, at such times as may be agreed to by the Parties. The JSC will determine its meeting locations, and whether to conduct a meeting in-person, by teleconference, or videoconference. Each Party is responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with its participation in the meetings of the JSC. Each Party shall have the right to call a special meeting of the JSC at any time as necessary or desirable to address disputes or other matters within the scope of the JSC’s responsibilities by providing the other Parties with written notice to that effect. The JSC Chairs shall schedule and convene such special JSC meeting as soon as practicable following such notice. Each Party may, from time-to-time and with prior written notice to the JSC members of the other Parties, invite Project Team members and/or others of its employees, consultants or agents to attend relevant portions of a JSC meeting as necessary. The Sponsoring Party shall notify the other Parties in writing in the event that it wishes to invite a Third Party to attend a JSC meeting. Any such notice shall be provided at least [**] business days prior to the relevant JSC meeting and shall identify the relevant Third Party and briefly describe the reasons that the Sponsoring Party wishes to include the Third Party in the meeting. The attendance and participation of such Third Party shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Parties receiving such notice (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). Any such consent granted by a Party shall be conditioned upon the consultant or contractor being bound by a written confidentiality and non-use agreement that is reasonably acceptable to the consenting Party. In the event the Sponsoring Party requires the attendance of such Third Party at subsequent JSC meetings, approval shall not be required for any Third Party who was previously approved by the other Parties and remains bound by an appropriate written confidentiality and non-use agreement at the time of the Project Team meeting, provided that the Sponsoring Party gives the other Parties prior notice of such attendance and the other Parties do not revoke their consent. The Parties’ respective JSC Chairs (as defined below) shall be responsible for ensuring compliance with the foregoing.
