of its Capital Contributions except as set forth in this Agreement.
(b) An individual Capital Account shall be established
and maintained for each Partner, including any additional or
substituted Partner who shall hereafter receive an interest in the
Partnership. The Capital Account of each Partner shall be
maintained in accordance with the following provisions:
(i) To each Partner's Capital Account there
shall be credited such Partner's Capital Contributions, such
Partner's distributive share of Profits, and any items in the nature
of income or gain that are specially allocated pursuant to Section 10.4
hereof, and the amount of any Partnership liabilities that are
assumed by such Partner or that are secured by any Partnership
Property distributed to such Partner;
(ii) To each Partner's Capital Account there shall
be debited the amount of cash and the Gross Asset Value of any
Partnership Property distributed to such Partner pursuant to
any provision of this Agreement, such Partner's distributive share of
Losses, and any items in the nature of expenses or losses that are
specially allocated pursuant to Section 10.4 hereof, and the amount
of any liabilities of such Partner that are assumed by the
Partnership or that are secured by any property contributed by such
Partner to the Partnership.
In the event that the Gross Asset Values of
Partnership assets are adjusted pursuant to this Agreement, the
Capital Accounts of all Partners shall be adjusted simultaneously to
reflect the aggregate net adjustment as if the Partnership
recognized gain or loss equal to the amount of such aggregate
net adjustment.
(c) The original Capital Account established for any
Assignee (as hereinafter defined) shall be in the same amount
as, and shall replace, the adjusted Capital Account of the
Partner which such Assignee succeeds, and, for the purpose of
the Agreement, such Assignee shall be deemed to have made the
Capital Contribution, to the extent actually paid in, of the
Partner which such Assignee succeeds. The term "Assignee," as
used in this paragraph, shall mean a Person who shall become
entitled to receive a share of the Profits, Losses, Tax Credits
and distributions of the Partnership by reason of such Person
succeeding to the Interest of a Partner by assignment of all or
any part of an Interest. To the extent an Assignee receives
less than 100% of the Interest of a Partner, such Assignee's
Capital Account and Capital Contribution shall be in proportion
to the Partnership Interest such Assignee receives, and the
Capital Account and Capital Contribution of the Partner who
retains a partial interest in the Partnership shall continue,
and not be replaced, in proportion to the Partnership Interest
such Partner retains.
(d) The foregoing provisions and other provisions of
this Agreement relating to the maintenance of the Capital Accounts
are intended to comply with the Allocation Regulations, and
shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with
such Allocation Regulations.

General Partner are as set forth on Schedule A.
4.3 Limited Partners
(a) The Original Limited Partner xxxxxx withdraws as a
limited partner of the Partnership and acknowledges that it no
longer has any Interest in, or rights or claims against, the
Partnership as a Partner as of the Admission Date. WPB hereby
acknowledges that no limited partners other than the Original
Limited Partner have been admitted to the Partnership prior to
the date hereof.
(b) Each of the Special Limited Partner, the
Investment Limited Partner and the Class A Limited Partner is hereby
admitted to the Partnership as a Limited Partner in substitution
for the Original Limited Partner as of the Admission Date and
agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of the Project
Documents and this Agreement. The name and address of the
Investment Limited Partner, the Special Limited Partner and the
Class A Limited Partner are as set forth on Schedule A.
(c) Except as otherwise specifically set forth in
Sections 4.5 or 7.4, the General Partner shall have no authority to admit
additional Limited Partners without the Consent of the Investment
Limited Partner.
4.4 Liability of the Limited Partners
Neither the Investment Limited Partner, the Special
Limited Partner, the Class A Limited Partner nor any Person who
becomes a Substituted Limited Partner shall be liable for any
debts, liabilities, contracts or obligations of the Partnership;
such Persons shall be liable only to pay their respective Capital
Contributions as and when the same are due hereunder and under the
Act. After its Capital Contribution shall be fully paid, no
Limited Partner shall, except as otherwise required by the Act, be
required to make any further capital contributions or payments or
lend any funds to the Partnership.
4.5 Special Rights of the Special Limited Partner
(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions herein (other
than Section 13.8), to the extent the law of the State is not
inconsistent, the Special Limited Partner shall have the right,
subject to any Requisite Approvals, to:
(i) dissolve the Partnership provided, however, that
such dissolution shall not be caused by the Special Limited
Partner unless the General Partner has violated a material provision
of any Project Document, which violation has not been cured within any
applicable cure period specified;
(ii) remove any General Partner and elect a new General
Partner upon the occurrence of a Material Event;
(iii) continue the business of the Partnership with
a substitute General Partner, provided that the General Partner
has been removed pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(ii) above; and
(iv) approve or disapprove the sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Partnership.
(b) Upon the removal of a General Partner for cause
pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(ii),
(i) without any further action by any Partner, the
Special Limited Partner shall cause an Affiliate
automatically to become a General Partner (the "Substitute General
Partner") and acquire in consideration of a cash payment of $100 such
portion of the Interest of the removed General Partner as counsel to
the Special Limited Partner shall determine is the minimum appropriate
interest in order to assure the continued status of the Partnership as
a partnership under the Code and under the Act;
(ii) the remaining portion of the economic Interest of
the removed General Partner shall be converted to that of a
special Limited Partner and shall be transferred to the
Limited Partner or a designee of the Limited Partner to the extent
necessary to compensate on a present value basis the Limited Partners
for the action of such General Partner leading to its removal, or for
the fact of its violation of the terms of this Agreement (including the
cost, if any, of locating and retaining a new General Partner), not as
a penalty but as damages to compensate the Partnership, provided,
however, that the parties hereto agree that for events set forth in
clauses (ii) (except if caused due to the Bankruptcy of the General
Partner), (vi) or (viii) of the definition of Material Event herein,
the entire remaining economic Interest of the removed General Partner
shall be forfeited to the Partnership and for all other applicable
events, the size of the transferred interest shall be determined by
arbitration. Such arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the
Rules of Commercial Arbitration of the American Arbitration Association
by a single arbitrator appointed pursuant to those rules. The
arbitration shall take place in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania;
and
(iii) the Substitute General Partner shall automatically
be irrevocably delegated all of the powers and duties of the General
Partners pursuant to Section 6.13. A General Partner so removed or
converted to a special Limited Partner will not be liable as a general
partner for any obligations of the Partnership incurred after the
effective date of its removal, but shall remain liable for all
obligations incurred prior to its removal or damages flowing from its
acts or omissions prior to its removal. Such a special Limited Partner
shall have no rights other than the right to receive the allocable
share of any Profits, Losses, Tax Credits or distributions of the
Partnership to which the General Partner would have been entitled with
respect to the Interest (or portion thereof) that was converted into a
special Limited Partner interest if no such conversion had occurred,
and shall not be considered to be a Special Limited Partner for the
purpose of exercising any rights reserved to the Special Limited
Partner under this Agreement or sharing the benefits allocated to the
Special Limited Partner under Article X hereof and shall not
participate in the votes or consents of the Limited Partners hereunder.
Each General Partner hereby grants to the Special Limited Partner an
irrevocable (to the extent permitted by applicable law) power of
attorney coupled with an interest to execute and deliver any and all
documents and instruments on behalf of such General Partner and the
Partnership as the Special Limited Partner may deem to be necessary or
appropriate in order to effect the provisions of this Section 4.5 and
to enable the new General Partner to manage the business of the
Partnership.
(c) The General Partner is hereby required, within five
(5) days after its receipt of any offer to purchase the Apartment
Complex or all of the Interests in the Partnership, to send a
copy of such offer (or a written description of any such oral
offer) to each of the Limited Partners. In connection with any
proposed sale of the Apartment Complex, the Special Limited
Partner (or its designee) shall have the right to (i) receive
and review copies of all documents relating to the proposed
sale, (ii) participate in the negotiations of the terms and
conditions
of the proposed sale, (iii) meet with the proposed purchaser,
(iv) solicit proposals for alternative offers for the Apartment
Complex, and (v) provide such other services in connection with
the proposed sale as it deems to be appropriate.
4.6 Meetings
The General Partner or Limited Partners holding more
than ten percent (10%) of the then outstanding Limited Partner
Interests may call meetings of the Partnership for any matters for which
the Limited Partners may vote as set forth in this Agreement. A
list of the names and addresses of all Limited Partners shall be
maintained as part of the books and records of the Partnership
and shall be made available upon request to any Limited Partner
or his representative at his cost. Upon receipt of a written
request either in person or by certified mail stating the
purpose(s) of the meeting, the General Partner shall provide all
Limited Partners within ten (10) days after receipt of said
request, written notice of a meeting , which meeting shall be
held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and the purpose of such
meeting to be held on a date not less than fifteen (15) nor more
than sixty (60) days after receipt of said request, at a time
and place convenient to the Limited Partners.
4.7 Class A Limited Partner
(a) The Partnership and the General Partner
represent that the Tax Credits were not allocated to the Partnership as part
of the non-profit set aside set forth in Section 42(h)(5)(c) of the
Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Class A Limited Partner
acknowledges that the Credit Agency allocated Tax Credits to the
Partnership in part because the Class A Limited Partner is a non-
profit organization and participates in the Partnership.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
during the Compliance Period, the Class A Limited Partner (or its
successor) shall participate in the development and operation of
the Apartment Complex to the extent required by the Credit Agency
to qualify for the Tax Credits. The Class A Limited Partner shall
devote such time and effort as necessary to assist the General
Partner in the development and operation of the Apartment Complex.
During the development of and throughout the Compliance Period for
the Apartment Complex, the Class A Limited Partner shall maintain
its federal tax exempt status and take such other actions to the
extent required by the Credit Agency to qualify for the Tax
Credits. The Class A Limited Partner acknowledges that the
General Partner and the Investment Limited Partner are relying on
the Class A Limited Partner's participation and involvement to
accomplish the development and operation of the Apartment Complex.
(b) The Class A Limited Partner, acting through its
employees or affiliates or through volunteers contributing their
time on its behalf, shall perform such services as it and the
General Partner shall determine to be appropriate, including but
not limited to, the following services on behalf of the
Partnership:
(i) assist the General Partner in the choice
of consultants with respect to the Apartment Complex;
(ii) coordinate with local service agencies,
including housing authorities, welfare and social
services departments, churches and other organizations operating
for the purpose of assisting the needy, to advise such agencies
about the availability of the Apartment Complex as desirable
housing for low-income families, and promote and encourage such
agencies to refer potential tenants to the Apartment Complex;
(iii) advise the Administrative General
Partner concerning ways in which the availability of the
Apartment Complex as suitable housing for low income families
may be made more widely known in the community;
(iv) obtain information from and consult with
low income tenants in the Apartment Complex as to services which
might be provided to such tenants by the
Partnership;
(v) obtain information from, consult with
and train tenants concerning social and educational
services from the community which might be provided to
tenants at the Apartment Complex; and
(vi) assist the identification of
eligible, qualified tenants, and providing tenant
qualification services, including without limitation, income
determination and certification and preference
determination.
(c) The Class A Limited Partner shall provide
certificates
and documentary evidence of its compliance with Sections 4.7(a)
and (b) above at such times as the General Partner or the Special
Limited Partner shall request.
(d) The Class A Limited Partner hereby represents an
warrants that it is a nonprofit organization in compliance with
rules of the Credit Agency.
(e) The General Partner hereby covenants to develop and
operate the Apartment Complex in a manner which involves the
Class A Limited Partner to the extent necessary to comply with the
requirements of the Credit Agency.
(f) If at any time during the Compliance Period, there
is no Partner which is a qualified non-profit organization, then to
the extent required by the Credit Agency the Partners shall use
their best efforts to cause a Partner to be admitted which is a
qualified non-profit organization and shall furnish counsel to the
Partnership with evidence to demonstrate such status in accordance
with the requirements of the Credit Agency.
(g) The Class A Limited Partner shall receive an
expense reimbursement fee of $7,000 to be paid at the closing of the
Permanent Loan.
(h) The General Partner reserves the right to remove
the Class A Limited Partner as the Class A Limited Partner in the
Partnership for "cause" only. "Cause" is defined as follows:
(i) Any event occurs to the Class A Limited
Partner that would disqualify the Partnership for the
Tax Credits; and
(ii) The occurrence of a Material Event as to
the Class A Limited Partner.
ARTICLE V
Capital Contributions of the Investment Limited Partner
and the Special Limited Partner
5.1 Payments
(a) Each of the Special Limited Partner's and the
Class A Limited Partner's Capital Contribution of $10 shall be paid in
full in cash on the Admission Date. The Investment Limited
Partner's Capital Contribution in the aggregate amount of
$3,816,835 shall be paid in cash installments (the
"Installments"), as follows:
(i) $202,094 (the "First Installment")
on the Admission Date;
(ii) $3,226,741 (the "Second
Installment") on the latest of (A) the Completion Date, (B)
Cost Certification,
(C) receipt of an updated Title Policy in form and substance
satisfactory to the Special Limited Partner, (D) receipt by
the Investment Limited Partner of the Contractor Pay-Off
Letter, (E) receipt by the Investment Limited Partner of an
Estoppel Letter from each Lender or (F) satisfaction of the
Due Diligence Recommendations;
(iii) $380,500 (the "Third Installment") on the
latest of (A) the Initial 100% Occupancy Date, (B) Permanent
Mortgage Commencement, (C) State Designation or (D) Rental
Achievement; and
(iv) $7,500 (the "Fourth Installment") upon the
receipt by the Investment Limited Partner of a copy of the
properly
filed Partnership federal income tax return and an audited
Partnership financial statement for the year in which Rental
Achievement occurs;
provided, however, that (x) the General Partner shall give the
Investment Limited Partner not less than fourteen (14) days'
written notice prior to the due date of each Installment
subsequent to the First Installment, and (y) no Installment shall
be due unless and until all conditions to the payment of all prior
Installments have been satisfied.
(b) The obligation of the Investment Limited Partner
to pay each Installment is conditioned upon delivery by the
General
Partner to the Investment Limited Partner of a written certificate
(the "Payment Certificate") stating that as of the date of such
certificate (i) all the conditions to the payment of such
Installment and each prior Installment have been satisfied, (ii)
all representations and warranties of the General Partner
contained in this Agreement are true and correct and (iii) no
event has occurred which suspends or terminates the obligations of
the Investment Limited Partner to pay Installments under this
Agreement which has not been cured as herein provided, (iv) no
event has occurred which, with the giving of notice, would oblige
the General Partner to repurchase the Interests of the Investment
Limited Partner pursuant to Section 5.2(a). Except as provided in
the final sentence of this Section 5.1(b), acceptance by the
Partnership of any Installment shall constitute a confirmation
that, as of the date of payment, all such conditions are satisfied
and all such representations and warranties are true and correct.
The obligation of the Investment Limited Partner to pay the First
Installment is also conditioned upon delivery by the General
Partner to the Investment Limited Partner of (x) a legal opinion
of independent counsel to the Partnership, the General Partner,
the Developer and the Guarantors, which opinion(s) must be
satisfactory to the Investment Limited Partner as to form, content
and identity of counsel and (y) a photocopy of a binding
commitment, in form and substance satisfactory to
the Special Limited Partner, to issue the Title Policy and
endorsements thereto in form and substance satisfactory to the
Special Limited Partner including a Fairway endorsement and a non-
imputation endorsement. In no event shall any Installment become
due until all of the conditions for all of the Installments listed
prior to the Installment in question in Section 5.1(a) shall have
been satisfied and all of such prior Installments shall have become
due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if at any time prior
to the date when an Installment becomes due and payable, the
Partnership has an Operating Deficit which the General Partner would
be required to fund pursuant to Section 6.10, then the Investment
Limited Partner may, at its option, waive the requirement of the
delivery of the Payment Certificate or any other condition with
respect to part or all of such Installment and pay such part or all
of such Installment, provided that the proceeds of the amount so
paid are used by the Partnership to fully fund such Operating
Deficit; provided, however, that if the proceeds of such amount so
paid are designated in Section 6.12 to be used to pay fee(s), then
such proceeds shall be utilized to pay such fee(s) and the
recipient(s) thereof shall be required to, and hereby agree to,
utilize the proceeds of such fee(s) to fund such Operating Deficit,
in which case the Investment Limited Partner is hereby authorized to
directly fund such Operating Deficit, with the funds so applied
being deemed to have been paid as aforesaid.
(c) The Payment Certificate for each Installment shall
be dated and delivered not less than ten (10) nor more than thirty
(30) days prior to the due date for such Installment.
(d) If, as of the date when an Installment would
otherwise be due, any statement required to be made in the Payment
Certificate for such Installment cannot be truthfully made, the
General Partner shall notify the Investment Limited Partner of
the reason why such statement would be untrue if made, and the
Investment Limited Partner shall not be required to pay such
Installment; provided, however, that if (i) any such statement
can subsequently be truthfully made and (ii) the Investment
Limited Partner shall not have irrevocably lost, in the good
faith judgment of the Investment General Partner, any material
tax or other benefits hereunder (other than tax benefits for
which the Investment Limited Partner has been fully compensated
pursuant to the provisions of paragraphs (e), (f) and (g) of
this Section 5.1), then the Investment Limited Partner shall pay
such Installment to the Partnership thirty (30) days after
delivery by the General Partner to the Investment Limited
Partner of the Payment Certificate together with an explanation
of the manner in which each such statement had become true.
(e) In the event that as of or any time prior to
Cost Certification (the "Initial Adjustment Date"), the
Investment Limited Partner shall receive a written certification
of the Auditors indicating that for any reason, including
without limitation, a determination by the Service whereby the
allocations to the Investment Limited Partner set forth in
Article X are not respected, the aggregate Actual Credit during
the Credit Period will be less than the aggregate Projected
Credit during the Credit Period, then (i) the next succeeding
Installments of the Capital Contributions of the Investment
Limited Partner shall be reduced by an amount equal to the
product of (X) the difference between (1) the aggregate
Projected Credit during the Credit Period and (2) the aggregate
Actual Credit during the Credit Period and
(Y) 0.838, provided, however, that if such a Tax Credit
shortfall occurs solely by reason of the Credit Agency reducing
the amount of Tax Credits allocated to the Partnership such figure
shall be 0.725, and (ii) the Projected Credit for each Fiscal Year shall
thereafter be redefined to mean the Actual Credit, as so
determined (the "Revised Projected Credit"). Any such reduction
pursuant to this Section 5.1(e) shall be made first to the
Installment, if any, next due to be paid by the Investment
Limited Partner, and any balance of such amount payable by the
General Partner in excess of the amount of such Installment
shall be applied to succeeding Installments, if any, provided
that if the amount of any such reductions exceeds the sum of the
remaining Installments, if any, then an amount equal to the
amount of such excess shall be paid by the General Partner to
the Investment Limited Partner within ten (10) business days
after demand is made therefor, as a payment of damages for
breach of warranty, regardless of the reason for the occurrence
of such event (unless such reduction was caused by an act or
omission of the Investment Limited Partner or its Affiliates, in
which event no such reduction or payment shall be required). No
reduction of any Installment or any payment by the General
Partner pursuant to this Section 5.1(e) shall be deemed to be a
Capital Contribution by the General Partner to the Partnership,
nor shall any such payment constitute a return of capital to the
Investment Limited Partner.
(f) If, for any reason, including without
limitation, a determination by the Service whereby the
allocations to the Investment Limited Partner set forth in
Article X are not respected, with respect to any Fiscal Year all
or a portion of which occurs during the Initial Operating
Period, the Actual Credit is or was less than the Projected
Credit (or the Revised Projected Credit, if applicable) for such
Fiscal Year (a "Reduction Year"), then the General Partner shall
pay to the Investment Limited Partner the Reduction Amount. The
Reduction Amount shall be equal to the sum of (A) the excess of
the Projected Credit (or the Revised Projected Credit, if
applicable) for such Fiscal Year over the Actual Credit for such
Fiscal Year multiplied by 0.838 plus (B) the Recapture Amount as
determined pursuant to Section 10.6 and, to the extent not
already accounted for, any interest or penalties payable by the
limited partners and/or holders of beneficial assignee
certificates of the Investment Limited Partner as a result of
such shortfall or Recapture Event, assuming that each limited
partner and/or holder of a beneficial assignee certificate in
the Investment Limited Partner used all of the Tax Credits
allocated to it in the Fiscal Year of allocation. The Auditors
shall make their determination of the amount of the Actual
Credit with respect to each Reduction Year within thirty (30)
days following the end of such Fiscal Year. The Investment
Limited Partner shall be eligible to be paid a Reduction Amount
as hereinabove described with respect to each Reduction Year.
Any Reduction Amount shall first be applied to the Installment
next due to be paid by the Investment Limited Partner, with any
portion of such Reduction Amount in excess of the amount of such
Installment then being applied to succeeding Installments,
provided that if no further Installments remain to be paid or if
the Reduction Amount shall exceed the sum of the amounts of the
remaining Installments, then the entire Reduction Amount or the
balance of the Reduction Amount, as the case may be, shall be
paid by the General Partner to the Investment Limited Partner
within ten (10) business days after demand is made therefor, as
a payment of damages for breach of warranty, regardless of the
reason for the occurrence of such event (unless such reduction
was caused by an act or omission of the Investment Limited
Partner or its Affiliates, in which event no Reduction Amount
shall be payable). No payment by the General Partner pursuant
to this Section 5.1(f) shall be deemed to be a Capital
Contribution to the Partnership nor shall any such payment
constitute a return of capital to the Investment Limited Partner.
(g) In the event that, for any reason, including
without limitation, a determination by the Service whereby the
allocations to the Investment Limited Partner set forth in Article
X are not respected, at any time after the end of the Initial
Operating Period, the amount of the Actual Credit shall be less
than the Projected Credit (or the Revised Projected Credit, if
applicable) with respect to any Fiscal Year of the Partnership
(such difference being hereinafter referred to as a "Credit
Shortfall"), the Investment Limited Partner shall be treated as
having made a constructive advance to the Partnership with respect
to such Fiscal Year (a "Credit Recovery Loan"), which shall be
deemed to have been made on January 1 of such Fiscal Year in an
amount equal to the sum of (A) the Credit Shortfall for such
Fiscal Year plus (B) the Recapture Amount as determined pursuant
to Section 10.6 and, to the extent not already accounted for, any
interest or penalties payable by the limited partners and/or the
holders of beneficial assignee certificates of the Investment
Limited Partner as a result of the Credit Shortfall for such
Fiscal Year, assuming that each limited partner and/or holder of a
beneficial assignee certificate in the Investment Partnership used
all of the Tax Credits allocated to him in the Fiscal Year of
allocation. Credit Recovery Loans shall be deemed to bear simple
(not compounded) interest from the respective dates on which such
principal advances shall have been deemed to have been made under
this Section 5.1(g) at a rate of nine percent (9%) per annum.
Credit Recovery Loans shall be payable by the Partnership as
provided in Section 10.2(b), Clause Third.
5.2 Return of Capital Contributions
(a) Failure to Achieve Development and/or Tax Credit
Benchmarks and Standards. Upon the occurrence of any of the
events (a "Repurchase Event") listed below in this Section 5.2(a),
within five (5) days of the occurrence thereof, the General
Partner shall send to the Investment Limited Partner notice of
such event and of the General Partner's obligation to repurchase
the Interests of the Investment Limited Partner by paying to the
Investment Limited Partner an amount in cash (the "Repurchase
Amount") equal to each such Partner's Invested Amount minus the
portion, if any, of such Partner's Capital Contribution which
shall not yet have been paid (or deemed to have been paid) to the
Partnership plus the outstanding principal and accrued interest in
respect of the Interim Loan and the amount of any third-party
costs, including, without limitation, attorney's fees incurred by
or on behalf of such Partner in implementing this Section 5.2(a)
in the event the Investment Limited Partner requires such a
repurchase plus interest thereon at the AFR commencing on the
fifth (5th) day after delivery of the notice referred to in the
next sentence. If the Investment Limited Partner elects to
require a repurchase of its Interest and the payment to it of an
amount equal to its Repurchase Amount, it shall send notice
thereof to the Partnership within thirty (30) days after the
mailing date of the General Partner's notice, or at any time after
the occurrence of any of the foregoing if the General Partner
shall not have sent a notice thereof, and the General Partner
shall within ten (10) days after the Partnership receives any such
notice from a Partner requesting the purchase of its Interest
repurchase the Interest of such Partner by paying to such Partner
an amount equal to its Repurchase Amount. If, following receipt
of the General Partner's notice, the Investment Limited Partner
fails to send notice to the General Partner by the end of such 30-
day period requesting the General Partner to
purchase its Interest, the Investment Limited Partner, as the
case may be, shall be deemed to have waived its right to cause
the General Partner to purchase its Interest as a result of the
event described in the General Partner's notice. No such
waiver, however, shall affect the right of the Investment
Limited Partner to cause the General Partner to purchase its
Interest upon the occurrence of any other event described in
this Section 5.2(a), or upon any subsequent occurrence of the
event described in the General Partner's notice. The Repurchase
Events are as follows:
(i) each of the buildings in the Apartment
Complex shall not have been placed in service by
December 31, 1998 (for purposes of satisfying the requirements
of Section 42(h)(1)(E)(i) of the Code with respect to the 1996
Tax Credit allocation); or
(ii) by December 31, 1998, the Completion Date
shall not have occurred; or
(iii) construction or operation of the
Apartment Complex shall have been enjoined by a final order
(from which no further appeals are possible) of a court having
jurisdiction and such injunction shall continue for a period of
ninety (90) days; or
(iv) Permanent Mortgage Commencement shall not
have been achieved prior to December 31, 1998; or
(v) if at any time it shall be determined by
the Service or by the Tax Accountants that a Carryover
Certification could not be issued or was issued in
error; or
(vi) State Designation shall not have occurred
by March 1, 1999 (or any later date fixed by the General
Partner with the Consent of the Investment Limited Partner) and
by said date the General Partner shall not have made any payment
as described in the next to last sentence of Section 5.1(e) or,
if the Investment Limited Partner shall have elected to have all
or a portion of any payment under Section 5.1(e) applied toward
future Installment obligations of the Investment Limited
Partner, amendments to this Agreement shall not have been
adopted and filed in the Filing Office, reflecting such event;
or
(vii) if by the date which is twelve (12)
months following the Completion Date, Rental Achievement
shall not have been achieved; or
(viii) the Partnership shall fail to meet the
Minimum Set-Aside Test or the Rent Restriction Test by
the close of the first year of the Credit Period and/or fails
to continue to meet either of such tests at any time during
the sixty (60)-month period commencing on such date; or
(ix) (A) foreclosure proceedings shall
have commenced under any Mortgage and such proceedings shall
not have been dismissed within thirty (30) days, (B) any of
the commitments of a Lender to provide a Mortgage Loan and/or
any subsidy financing shall be terminated or withdrawn and not
reinstated or replaced within sixty (60) days with terms at
least as favorable to the Partnership or terms for which the
Consent of the Investment Limited Partner and any Requisite
Approvals shall have been obtained, or (C) the Construction
Lender, acting in good faith and in accordance with the
provisions of the Construction Loan Documents, shall have
irrevocably refused to make any further advances under the
Construction Loan Documents and such decision shall not have
been reversed or the Construction Lender replaced within
thirty (30) days; or
(x) at any time the General Partner fails
to advance Subordinated Loans and such failure continues
for ten (10) days; or
(xi) any action is commenced to foreclose
any mechanics, or any other lien (other than the lien of a
Mortgage) against the Apartment Complex and such action
has not within thirty (30) days been either bonded against in
such a manner as to preclude the holder of such lien from having
any recourse to the Apartment Complex or to the Partnership for
payment of any debt secured thereby, or affirmatively insured
against by the title insurance policy or an endorsement thereto
issued to the Partnership by a reputable title insurance company
(which insurance company will not have indemnity from or
recourse against Partnership assets by reason of any loss it may
suffer by reason of such insurance) in an amount satisfactory to
the Investment Limited Partner; or
(xii) a casualty occurs resulting in
substantial destruction of all or a portion of the Apartment
Complex, and the insurance proceeds (if any) are
insufficient to restore the Apartment Complex or the
Apartment Complex is not so restored within twenty-four (24)
months following such casualty; or
(xiii) at any time the Service determines
that the Investment Limited Partner is not a Partner of the
Partnership for federal tax purposes or the allocations
to the Investment Limited Partner set forth in Article X are not
respected, resulting in the allocation to the Investment Limited
Partner of less than 70% of the Projected Credit during the
Credit Period.
(b) Lender/Agency Disapproval. If any Agency or
Lender shall disapprove, or fail to give any required approval of, the
Investment Limited Partner and/or the Special Limited Partner as
a Limited Partner hereunder within one hundred eighty (180) days
of the Admission Date, then the Partner being disapproved or not
approved shall, effective as of such time or such later time as
may be elected by the Partner being disapproved or not approved
as may be specified by such Agency or Lender in its disapproval,
at the option of the Partner being disapproved or not approved
(if not directed by such Agency or Lender to withdraw), cease to
be a Limited Partner. The General Partner shall, within ten (10)
days of the effective date of such cessation, pay to the Partner
being disapproved or not approved an amount equal to its Invested
Amount minus the amount, if any, of such Partner's Capital
Contribution which shall not yet have been paid (or deemed to
have been paid) to the Partnership plus the amount of any third
party costs, including, but not limited to attorney's fees,
incurred by or on behalf of such Partner in implementing this
Section 5.2(b).
(c) Substitution and Indemnification. Upon the
receipt by the Investment Limited Partner and/or the Special Limited Partner
of the amount due to it pursuant to either Section 5.2(a) or
Section 5.2(b), the Interest of such Partner shall terminate, and
the General Partner shall indemnify and hold harmless such
Partner from and against any Adverse Consequences to which such
Partner (as a result of its participation hereunder) may be
subject, provided that such Adverse Consequences do not result
from such Partner's acts or omissions.
(d) Waiver of Repurchase Right. Each of the Investment
Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner shall have the
right to irrevocably waive its right to have its Interest
repurchased pursuant to any clause or clauses of Section 5.2(a),
or any portion thereof, at any time during which any of such
rights shall be in effect. Such a waiver shall be exercised by
delivery to the General Partner of a written notice stating that
the rights being waived pursuant to any specified clause or
clauses of Section 5.2(a), or any specified portion thereof, are
thereby waived for a specified period of time.
(e) Additional General Partner. If the General Partner
shall fail to make on the due date therefor any payment required
under Section 5.2(a) or Section 5.2(b), time being of the
essence, at any time thereafter the Special Limited Partner shall
have the option, exercisable in its sole discretion, to cause
itself or its designee to be admitted as an additional General
Partner, receiving from the existing General Partner, in
consideration of the payment of ten dollars ($10.00), a one per
cent (1%) interest in the Profits, Losses, Tax Credits and
distributions of the Partnership, with the Special Limited
Partner retaining its status as such and its economic interest in
the Partnership as the Special Limited Partner (or its designee
as an additional General Partner). If the Special Limited
Partner exercises the option described in this Section 5.2(e),
each of the other General Partner xxxxxx agrees that all of its
rights and powers hereunder as a General Partner shall
automatically be irrevocably delegated
to the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 6.13 without
the necessity of any further action by any Partner. Each Partner
hereby grants to the Special Limited Partner an irrevocable (to
the extent permitted by applicable law) power of attorney coupled
with an interest to take any action and to execute, deliver and
file or record any and all documents and instruments on behalf of
such Partner and the Partnership as the Special Limited Partner
may deem necessary or appropriate in order to effectuate the
provisions of this Section 5.2(e) and to allow the additional
General Partner to manage the business of the Partnership. The
admission of the Special Limited Partner or its designee as an
additional General Partner shall not relieve any other General
Partner of any of its economic obligations hereunder, and each
other General Partner shall fully indemnify and hold harmless the
additional General Partner on an after-tax basis from and against
any and all Adverse Consequences sustained by such additional
General Partner in connection with its status as a General
Partner (other than Adverse Consequences arising solely from the
negligence or misconduct of such additional General
Partner).

admitted pursuant to this Section 6.2(b) to manage the business

harmless the additional General Partner from and against any and
all Adverse Consequences sustained by the additional General
Partner in connection with its status as a General Partner
(other than Adverse Consequences arising solely from the

No General Partner or Affiliate thereof shall receive
any salary or other direct or indirect compensation for any
services or goods provided in connection with the Partnership or
the Apartment Complex, except as may be specifically provided in
Section 6.12, Section 6.15 and Article XI or as to which the
Consent of the Special Limited Partner shall have been obtained
to the precise terms thereof prior to the commencement of such
services or the provision of such goods. Any Partner may engage
independently or with others in other business ventures of every
nature and description, including the ownership, operation,
management, syndication and development of real estate; neither
the Partnership nor any other Partner shall have any rights in
and to such independent ventures or the income or profits
derived therefrom.
6.4 Business Management and Control
(a) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the
General Partner shall have the exclusive right to control the
business of the partnership. If at any time there is more than
one General Partner, the powers and duties of the General
Partners hereunder shall be exercised in the first instance by a
Managing General Partner who, subject to the terms and
provisions of this Agreement, shall manage the business and
affairs of the Partnership. The Managing General Partner may
bind the Partnership by executing and delivering, in the name
and on behalf of the Partnership, any documents which this
Agreement authorizes the General Partners to execute hereunder
without the requirement that any other General Partner execute
such documents. The initial Managing General Partner shall be
WPB; if it is unwilling or unable to serve in such capacity or
shall cease to be a General Partner, the remaining General
Partners may from time to time designate a new Managing General
Partner. If for any reason no designation is in effect, the
powers of the Managing General
Partner shall be exercised by a majority in interest of the
General Partners. Any action required or permitted to be taken
by a corporate General Partner hereunder may be taken by such of
its proper officers or agents as it shall validly designate for
such purpose.
(b) The Managing General Partner shall have control
over the business of the Partnership and shall have all rights,
powers and authority conferred by law as necessary, advisable or
consistent in connection therewith. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Managing General Partner shall have the right, power
and authority to execute any documents relating to the acquisition,
financing, construction, operation and sale of all or any portion
of the Apartment Complex with the prior approval of the other
General Partners, if any. The Managing General Partner shall be
responsible for administering any construction loan draw requests
for the development of the Apartment Complex.
(c) Neither the Investment Limited Partner nor the
Special Limited Partner shall have any right to take part in the
management or control of the business of the Partnership or to
transact any business in the name of the Partnership. No provision
of this Agreement which makes the Consent of the Investment Limited
Partner or the Consent of the Special Limited Partner a condition
for the effectiveness of an action taken by the General Partner is
intended, and no such provisions shall be construed, to give the
Investment Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as the
case may be, any participation in the control of the Partnership
business. Each of the Special Limited Partner, the Investment
Limited Partner and the Class A Limited Partner hereby consents to
the exercise by the General Partner of the powers conferred on it
by law and this Agreement, and the General Partner agrees to
exercise control of the business of the Partnership only in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in no event may the provisions of this Section 6.4
be invoked by any General Partner or by any other Person as a
defense against or as an impediment
to the ability of either the Investment Limited Partner or the
Special Limited Partner to take any action hereunder.
6.5 Duties and Obligations
(a) The General Partner shall manage the affairs of
the Partnership to the best of its ability, shall use its best
efforts to carry out the purpose of the Partnership, and shall
devote to the Partnership such time as may be necessary for the
proper performance of its duties and the business of the
Partnership. The General Partner shall promptly take all action
which may be necessary or appropriate for the proper
development, construction, maintenance and operation of the
Apartment Complex in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement, the Project Documents and any applicable laws and
Regulations. The General Partner is responsible for the
management and operation of the Partnership, including the
oversight of the rent-up and operational stages of the Apartment
Complex.
(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 6.5(g), the
General Partner shall use its diligent good faith efforts to
cause the Partnership to generate Cash Flow for distribution to
the Partners at the maximum realizable level in view of (i) any
applicable Regulations, (ii) the Minimum Set-Aside Test, (iii)
the Rent Restriction Test and (iv) the Projected Rents, and, if
necessary, the General Partner also shall use its best efforts to
obtain approvals and implementation of appropriate adjustments in
the rental schedule of the Apartment Complex.
(c) The General Partner shall cause the Partnership
to obtain and keep in force, during the term of the Partnership,
insurance policies in accordance with the Insurance Requirements
set forth on Exhibit D hereto. Throughout the term of the
Partnership, the General Partner shall provide copies of all such
policies (or binders) to the Investment Limited Partner within
thirty (30) days after their receipt thereof. The General
Partner shall cause the applicable insurer to name the Investment
Limited Partner as an "additional insured" on each Partnership
insurance policy. Each Partnership insurance policy shall include
a provision requiring the insurance company to notify the
Investment Limited Partner in writing no less than thirty (30)
days prior to any cancellation, non-renewal or material change in
the terms and conditions of coverage. The General Partner shall
review regularly all of the Partnership and Apartment Complex
insurance coverage to insure that it is adequate and continuing.
In particular, the General Partner shall review at least annually
the insurance coverage required by this Section 6.5(c) to insure
that it is in an amount at least equal to the then current full
replacement value of the Apartment Complex.
Without limitation of the foregoing, the General Partner
shall deliver to the Investment Limited Partner on or before the
Admission Date one or more certificates or memoranda of insurance,
in form reasonably acceptable to the Investment Limited Partner,
evidencing, (i) the existence of the insurance policies and
coverages specified on Exhibit D, (ii) that the Partnership and
its Partners (including the Investment Limited Partner) are named
insured on such policies, and (iii) that such insurance policies
will not be cancelled by the insurers except within thirty (30)
days' written notice to the Investment Limited Partner. From time
to time following the Admission Date, the General Partner shall
deliver to the Investment Limited Partner such further
certificates or memoranda of insurance as the Investment Limited
Partner may reasonably require to confirm that such insurance and
notice provisions with respect to insurance under this Agreement
have been complied with.
(d) If at any time there is more than one General
Partner, the obligations of the General Partners hereunder shall
be the joint and several obligations of each General Partner. Except as
otherwise provided in Sections 4.5(b) and 7.1, such obligations
shall survive any Withdrawal of a General Partner from the
Partnership.
(e) The General Partner shall on and after the
Permanent Loan Commencement establish and maintain a reserve (the
"Operating Reserve") to provide for working capital needs,
improvements, Operating Deficits and any other contingencies of
the Partnership. The General Partner (or its designee) shall,
upon the Permanent Loan Commencement, initially fund the Operating
Reserve in the amount of $7,000. Thereafter, the General Partner
shall fund the Operating Reserve by monthly deposits of $1,913 (4%
of the Effective Gross Income as such term is defined in the
Permanent Loan Documents) up to a maximum balance, when combined
with the Replacement Reserve, of $216,000.
(f) Commencing on the Permanent Loan Commencement, the
General Partner shall establish a reserve for Capital replacements
(the "Replacement Reserve"), which account shall be funded by
monthly deposits of $1,200 ($200 per unit per year) up to a
maximum balance, when combined with the Operating Reserve, of
$216,000. Withdrawals from such Replacement Reserve shall be
utilized solely to fund capital repairs and improvements deemed
necessary by the General Partner and approved by the Permanent
Lender and the Special Limited Partner. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the General Partner may make withdrawals from the
Replacement Reserve totaling up to $14,400 during any one-year
period without the prior approval of the Special Limited Partner.
(g) The General Partner shall, on the Permanent Loan
Commencement, establish a reserve (the "Recourse Reserve") that
shall be pledged to collateralize the Permanent Loan in an amount
equal to $130,000 (5% of the Permanent Loan). Withdrawals from
the Recourse Reserve shall be utilized solely to pay any demand
under the Guaranty of Payment between the Permanent Lender and
the Local Initiatives Managed Assets Corporation (the "Guaranty
of Payment"). When the Guaranty of Payment is released by Local
Initiatives Management Assets Corporation, the Recourse Reserve
shall be transferred into the Replacement Reserve to the extent
necessary to fund it up to a maximum, when combined with the
Operating Reserve, of $216,000, and any amount in excess of such
amount will be released to the Partnership.
(h) The General Partner shall, on and after the
Permanent Loan Commencement establish and maintain a reserve for
debt service (the "Debt Service Reserve") in an amount equal to
$77,726.85 (three months of debt service). Withdrawals from the
Debt Service Reserve shall be utilized solely to fund debt
service on the Property. To the extent any withdrawal is made
from the reserve, the General Partner shall replenish the
reserve upon demand by either the Permanent Lender or the
Special Limited Partner.
(i) Each General Partner shall be bound by the
provisions of the Project Documents, and no additional General
Partner shall be admitted if he, she or it has not first agreed to
be bound by this Agreement (and assume the obligations of a General
Partner hereunder) and by the Project Documents to the same extent
and under the same terms as each of the other General Partners.
(j) The General Partner shall take all actions
appropriate to ensure that the Investment Limited Partner receives
the full amount of the Projected Credit, including, without
limitation, the rental of apartments to appropriate tenants and the
filing of annual certifications as may be required. In this regard, the
General Partner shall, inter alia, cause (i) the Partnership to
satisfy the Minimum Set-Aside Test, the Rent Restriction Test and
all other requirements imposed from time to time under the Code with
respect to rental levels and occupancy by qualified tenants by the

Compliance Period so as to permit the Partnership to be entitled to
the maximum available Tax Credit (ii) the Partnership to comply with
all Tax Credit monitoring procedures of the State, (iii) all
dwelling units in the Apartment Complex to be leased for initial
periods of not less than six months to individuals satisfying the

Tax Credit elections in a timely fashion, and (v) all rental units
in the Apartment Complex to be of equal quality with comparable
amenities available to low-income tenants on a comparable basis
without separate fees.
(k) On or before the Admission Date, the General Partner
shall provide to the Special Limited Partner either (i) an appraisal
of the Apartment Complex prepared by a competent independent
appraiser or (ii) completed RECD Forms 1924-13 (estimate and

and expense) or HUD project cost and budget analysis on Form 2264,
or any successor RECD or HUD form, any comparable form of a state or
other Governmental Authority, including any applicable Credit
Agency, setting forth estimates
with respect to construction, rehabilitation and mortgage financing
costs and initial rental income and operating expense figures for
the Apartment Complex.
(l) The General Partner shall (i) not store or dispose
of (except in compliance with all laws, ordinances, and regulations

Complex, or at or on any other Site or Vessel owned, occupied, or
operated either by any General Partner, any Affiliate of a General
Partner, or any Person for whose conduct any General Partner is or
was responsible; (ii) neither directly nor indirectly transport or
arrange for the transport of any Hazardous Material (except in

written notice (x) upon any General Partner's obtaining knowledge
of any potential or known release, or threat of release, of any
Hazardous Material at or from the Apartment Complex or any other

any Affiliate of a General Partner or any Person for whose conduct
any General Partner is or was responsible or whose liability may

loss by any such government authority in connection with the
assessment, containment, or removal of any Hazardous Material for
which expense or loss any General Partner may be liable or for
which expense or loss a lien may be imposed on the Apartment
Complex.
(m) The General Partner shall promptly request in
writing of the Permanent Lender that the Permanent Lender cause the
Special Limited Partner to be named as an "interested party" in the
Permanent Mortgage Loan Documents, so that the Permanent Lender
will notify the Special Limited Partner of any default under the
Permanent Mortgage or the General Partner shall itself notify the
Special Limited Partner of any such default.

Limited Partner with a true and accurate copy of each Construction Loan
requisition and any supporting documents and information which has
been submitted for approval by the Construction Lender (whether
submitted before or after the Admission Date).

responsibility for the safekeeping and use of all funds and assets
of the Partnership, whether or not in its immediate possession or
control. The General Partner shall not employ, or permit another
to employ, such funds or assets in any manner except for the
exclusive benefit of the Partnership. No General Partner shall
contract away the fiduciary duty owed at common law to the Limited
Partners.

any other applicable state securities administrator with respect
to the issue of indemnification for securities law violations.
(d) The Partnership shall not incur the cost of the

Partner.

Partner acts as an officer, director, partner or trustee. For
purposes of this Section 6.8 only, the term "controls" and any
form of such term shall mean the power to direct the management
and policies of a Person, directly or indirectly, whether
through ownership of voting securities, by contract or
otherwise.
6.9 Indemnification of the Partnership and the Limited Partners
(a) The General Partner will indemnify and hold the
Partnership and the Limited Partners harmless from and against

necessary contractual obligations incurred pursuant to the
requirements of any Agency or Lender in connection with the
operation of the Apartment Complex in the ordinary course of
business.

immediately preceding sentence may be defended, compromised,
settled, or pursued by the Limited Partners with counsel of the
Limited Partners' selection, but at the expense of the General
Partner. Notwithstanding anything else set forth herein, this
indemnification shall survive the withdrawal of any General
Partner and/or the termination of this Agreement.
6.10 Operating Deficits
Subject to any Requisite Approvals, the General Partner
shall be obligated during the period from Rental Achievement until
the fifth (5th) anniversary of Rental Achievement (the
"Subordinated Loan Period"), to promptly advance funds to eliminate
any Operating Deficit, provided however, that the General Partner shall
not be obligated to have Subordinated Loans outstanding at any one
time between Rental Achievement and the third anniversary of Rental
Achievement in excess of $575,000 or in excess of $250,000 between
the third anniversary of Rental Achievement and the end of the
Subordinated Loan Period. In any case in which
the General Partner otherwise would be required to advance funds
under this Section 6.10, any amounts then held in the Operating
Reserve may be released and disbursed for the purpose of
eliminating the Operating Deficit before the General Partner
shall be required to advance their own funds. In the event that
the General Partner shall fail to make any such advance as
aforesaid, (a) the Partnership shall utilize amounts (the
"Applied Amounts") otherwise payable to the General Partner or
its Affiliates under Section 6.12 and/or Article X to meet the
obligations of the General Partner pursuant to this Section
6.10, with such utilization of Applied Amounts constituting
payment and satisfaction of the corresponding amounts payable to
the General Partner or its Affiliates under Section 6.12 and/or
Article X, with the proceeds thereof being applied to such
obligations, and with the obligation of the Partnership to make
such payments to the General Partner or its Affiliates pursuant
to Section 6.12 and/or Article X being deemed to have been
satisfied to the extent thereof and (b) the Special Limited
Partner shall have the option, exercisable in its sole
discretion, to cause it or one or more of
its designees to be admitted to the Partnership as additional
General Partner(s). An additional General Partner so admitted
shall automatically, without the need for any further action by
any Partner, become the Managing General Partner and shall be
delegated all of the powers and authority of all of the General
Partners pursuant to Section 6.13, and each Partner hereby
grants to any such additional General Partner a power of
attorney, coupled with an interest and irrevocable to the extent
permitted by law, to execute and deliver any and all instruments
and documents which it believes to be necessary or appropriate
in order to accomplish the purposes of this Section 6.10 and to
manage the business of the Partnership. The admission of an
additional General Partner shall not relieve any other General
Partner of any of its economic obligations hereunder, and each
other General Partner shall indemnify and hold harmless the
additional General Partner from and against any and all Adverse
Consequences sustained in connection with the additional General
Partner's status as a General Partner (other than Adverse
Consequences arising solely out of the negligence or misconduct
of such additional General Partner). For the purpose of this
Section 6.10, all expenses shall be paid on a sixty (60)-day
current basis. Moreover, the General Partner may in its sole
discretion at any time advance funds to the Partnership to pay
operating expenses and/or debt service of the Partnership in
order to facilitate the Partnership's compliance with the Rent
Restriction Test. All advances pursuant to Section 6.5(e) and
this Section 6.10 (including any Applied Amounts), except
advances from the Operating Reserve, shall constitute non-

be repaid in accordance with the provisions of Article X. The

compensation for the Developer's services in connection with the

the Development Agreement. If the Development Fee has not been
fully paid by the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Completion
Date, the General Partner shall make a Capital Contribution to
the Partnership in an amount sufficient to enable the Partnership
to pay any unpaid portion of the Development Fee.
(b) The Partnership shall pay to the Special Limited
Partner or an Affiliate thereof a fee (the "Asset Management
Fee") for its services in connection with the Partnership's

Limited Partner was a Partner of the Partnership. The Asset
Management Fee shall be payable from Cash Flow in the manner and
priority set forth in Section 10.2(a); provided however, that if
for any reason the Asset Management Fee is not paid in any Fiscal
Year, the unpaid portion thereof shall accrue and be payable on a
cumulative basis in the first Fiscal Year in which there is
sufficient Cash Flow or Capital Proceeds as provided in Article X.
(c) In consideration of the services of the General
Partner in managing the day-to-day business and affairs of the
Partnership, the Partnership shall pay to the General Partner an
annual fee (the "Partnership Management Fee") in the amount of

10.2(a). The Partnership Management Fee shall be begin to accrue

Partner of the Partnership. The Partnership Management Fee shall
be noncumulative so that if there is not sufficient Cash Flow in
any Fiscal Year to pay the amount of the Partnership Management
Fee specified for such use in Section 10.2(a), the Partnership
shall have no obligation to pay such shortfall in any future
Fiscal Year.
6.13 Delegation of General Partner Authority

serving hereunder, each General Partner may from time to time, by an
instrument in writing, delegate all or any of his powers or
duties hereunder to another General Partner or General Partners.

amended in any manner so as to restrict the delegation of
authority among General Partners (except as shown in certificates or
other instruments duly filed in the Filing Office) and (iii) the

not have the authority to enter into a settlement agreement on the behalf
of such Partner;
(ii) in the event that a notice of final

ARTICLE VII

its Interest without the Consent of the Investment Limited
Partner and each of the other General Partners (if any) and, if
required, any Requisite Approvals.
7.2 Reconstitution
In the event of the Withdrawal of a General Partner, the
Partnership shall not be dissolved or required to be wound up if
(i) at the time of such Withdrawal there is at least one
remaining General Partner and that General Partner carries on
the business of the Partnership (any such remaining General
Partner being hereby authorized to carry on the business of the
Partnership), or (ii) within ninety (90) days after such
Withdrawal all remaining Partners agree in writing to continue
the business of the Partnership and to the appointment,
effective as of the date of such Withdrawal, of one or more
additional General Partners. Within ten (10) days after the
occurrence of such Withdrawal, the remaining General Partners,
if any, shall notify the Investment Limited Partner thereof:
(i) The reconstituted limited partnership
shall continue until the occurrence of a Liquidating Event as
provided in Section 2.4;
(ii) If the successor General Partner is not a
former General Partner, then the provisions of Section
7.4(d) shall apply; and
(iii) All necessary steps shall be taken to
cancel this Agreement and the Certificate and to enter into a
new partnership agreement and certificate of limited
partnership, and the successor General Partner shall
be obligated to take such steps.
7.3 Successor General Partner
(a) Upon the occurrence of any Withdrawal, the
remaining General Partners may designate a Person to become a successor
General Partner to the Withdrawing General Partner. Any Person so
designated, subject to any Requisite Approvals, the Consent of the
Investment Limited Partner and, if required by the Act or any
other applicable law, the consent of any other Partner so
required, shall become a successor General Partner upon his
written agreement to be bound by the Project Documents and by the
provisions of this Agreement.
(b) If any Withdrawal shall occur at a time when there
is no remaining General Partner and the Partners do not unanimously
elect to continue the business of the Partnership in accordance
with the provisions of clause (ii) of Section 7.2(a) above, then
the Investment Limited Partner shall have the right, subject to
any Requisite Approvals, to designate a Person to become a
successor General Partner upon his written agreement to be bound by
the Project Documents and by the provisions of this Agreement.
(c) If the Investment Limited Partner elects to
reconstitute the Partnership and admit a successor General
Partner pursuant to this Section 7.3, the relationship of the
Partners in the reconstituted Partnership shall be governed by
this Agreement.
7.4 Interest of Predecessor General Partner
(a) No assignee or transferee of all or any part of
the Interest as a General Partner of a General Partner shall have
any automatic right to become a General Partner. Until the
acquisition of the Interest of a Withdrawing General Partner
pursuant to Section 7.4(d), such Interest shall be deemed to be
that of an assignee and the holder thereof shall be entitled
only to such rights as an assignee may have as such under the
laws of the State.
(b) Anything herein contained to the contrary
notwithstanding, any General Partner who Withdraws voluntarily
in violation of Section 7.1 shall remain liable for all of its
obligations under this Agreement, for all its other obligations
and liabilities hereunder incurred or accrued prior to the date
of its Withdrawal and for any loss or damage which the
Partnership or any of its Partners may incur as a result of such
Withdrawal (except as provided in Section 6.8(a)).
(c) The estate (which term, for purposes of this
Section 7.4(c), shall include the heirs, distributees, estate,
executors, administrators, guardian, committee, trustee or other
personal representative) of a Withdrawn General Partner shall be
liable for all his liabilities and obligations hereunder, except
as provided in this Section 7.4(c). In the event of the death,
insanity or incompetency of a General Partner, his estate shall
remain liable for all of his obligations and liabilities
hereunder incurred or accrued prior to the date of such event,
and for any damages arising out of any breach of this Agreement
by him, but his estate shall not have any obligation or
liability on account of the business of the Partnership or the
activities of the other General Partners after his death,
insanity or incompetency unless it becomes a General Partner
pursuant to Section 7.3(a).
(d) The Disposition of the General Partner Interest
of a General Partner who or which Withdraws voluntarily in
compliance with this Agreement shall be accomplished in such
manner as shall be acceptable to the remaining General Partners
and shall be approved by Consent of the Investment Limited
Partner. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, upon the
Withdrawal of a General Partner (other than a General Partner
who or which is removed as such pursuant to Section 4.5), such
Withdrawn General Partner shall be deemed to have automatically
transferred to the remaining General Partners, in proportion to their
respective General Partner Interests, or, if there shall be no
remaining General Partner, then to the Partnership for the benefit of
the remaining Partners, all or such portion of the General Partner
Interest of such Withdrawn General Partner which, when aggregated
with the existing General Partner Interests of all such remaining
General Partners, will be sufficient to assure such remaining General
Partners a 1% interest in all Profits, Losses, Tax Credits and
distributions of the Partnership under Article X. No documentation
shall be necessary to effectuate such transfer, which shall be
automatic, and no consideration shall be payable therefor. For the
purposes of Article X, the effective date of the transfer pursuant to
the provisions of this Section 7.4(d) of the General Partner Interest
of a Withdrawn General Partner shall be deemed to be the date on
which such Withdrawal occurs. That portion of the General Partner
Interest (the "Remaining Interest") of the Withdrawing General
Partner which shall not have been transferred pursuant to this
Section 7.4(d) (except in respect of a removed General Partner),
shall be retained by such Withdrawing General Partner (or pass to
legal representatives thereof) who or which shall have the status of
a special Limited Partner, but with the right to receive only that
share of the Profits, Losses, Tax Credits and distributions of the
Partnership to which the Withdrawing General Partner, as such, would
have been entitled had he or it remained, reduced to the extent of
the General Partner Interest transferred hereunder, but such
Withdrawing Partner (or his or its legal representatives, as the case
may be) shall not be considered to be a Special Limited Partner for
the purpose of exercising any rights reserved to the Special Limited
Partner under this Agreement or sharing the benefits allocated to the
Special Limited Partner under Article X hereof and shall not
participate in the votes or consents of the Limited Partners
hereunder; provided, however, that a portion of such Remaining
Interest shall be transferred to the Limited Partner or a designee of
the Limited Partner to the extent necessary to compensate on a
present value basis the Limited Partner and the Partnership for the
damages caused to the Partnership or Limited Partner due to such
Withdrawal of the General Partner (including the cost, if any, of
locating and retaining a new General Partner). The size of the
transferred interest shall be determined by arbitration. Such
arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Rules of
Commercial Arbitration of the American Arbitration Association by a
single arbitrator appointed pursuant to those rules. The arbitration
shall take place in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
7.5 Amendment of Certificate; Approval of Certain Events
(a) Upon the admission of a new General Partner pursuant
to the preceding provisions of this Article VII, Schedule A shall be
amended to reflect such admission and an amendment to the
Certificate, also reflecting such admission, shall be filed as
required by the Act.
(b) Each Partner hereby consents to and authorizes any
admission or substitution of a General Partner or any other
transaction, including, without limitation, the continuation of
the Partnership business, which has been authorized under the
provisions of this Agreement, and hereby ratifies and confirms
each amendment of this Agreement necessary or appropriate to
give effect to any such transaction.
7.6 Designation of New General Partners
The General Partner may, with the written consent of all
Partners, at any time designate new General Partners, each with
such Interest as a General Partner in the Partnership as the
General Partner may specify, subject to any Requisite Approvals.
Any new General Partner shall, as a condition of
receiving any interest in the Partnership property, agree to be
bound by the Project Documents and any other documents required
in connection therewith and by the provisions of this Agreement,
to the same extent and on the same terms as any other General
Partner.
ARTICLE VIII
Transferability of Limited Partner Interests
8.1 Assignments
(a) Except by operation of law (including the laws
of descent and distribution) or pursuant to the provisions of
Section 8.1(b), no Limited Partner may assign all or any part of
its Interest without the written consent of the General Partner,
the giving or withholding of which is exclusively within its
discretion.
(b) A Limited Partner, without the consent of the
General Partner, may assign to any Person all or any portion of the
economic benefits of the ownership of such Limited Partner's
Interest; provided, however, that such assignment shall not be
binding on the Partnership until there shall have been filed with
the Partnership by registered mail certified copies of an executed
and acknowledged assignment and the written acceptance by the
assignee of all the terms and provisions of this Agreement; if
such assignment and acceptance are not so filed, the Partnership
need not recognize such assignment for any purpose. An assignee of
a Limited Partner who does not become a Substituted Limited Partner
shall have the right to receive the allocable share of
any Profits, Losses, Tax Credits or distributions of the
Partnership to which the assigning Limited Partner would have
been entitled with respect to the Interest (or portion thereof) so
assigned if no such assignment had been made by such Limited Partner. Any
assigning Limited Partner whose permitted assignee becomes a
Substituted Limited Partner shall thereupon cease to be a Limited
Partner and shall no longer have any of the rights or privileges
of a Limited Partner. Where the assignee does not become a
Substituted Limited Partner, the Partnership shall recognize such
assignment not later than the last day of the calendar month
following receipt of notice of assignment and all documentation
required in connection therewith.
(c) Each assignee of a Limited Partner Interest (or
any portion thereof) who desires to make a further assignment of its
Interest shall be subject to all the provisions of this Article VIII.
8.2 Substituted Limited Partner
(a) No Limited Partner shall have the right to
substitute an assignee as Limited Partner in its place. Subject to the
provisions of Section 8.3, the General Partner may, in its sole
discretion, permit an assignee to become a Substituted Limited
Partner. The consent of the General Partner to an assignment of
a Limited Partner's Interest under Section 8.1 shall not, in and
of itself, constitute its consent to the admission of the assignee as
a Substituted Limited Partner under this Section 8.2.
(b) Any Substituted Limited Partner shall execute such
instrument or instruments as shall be required by the General
Partner to signify the agreement of such Substituted Limited
Partner to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement and
shall pay the Partnership's reasonable legal fees and filing costs
in connection with its substitution as a Limited Partner.
8.3 Restrictions
(a) No Disposition of a Limited Partner Interest may be
made if such Disposition would violate the provisions of
Sections 8.1, 8.2 or 13.1.
(b) In no event shall all or any part of a Limited
Partner Interest be Disposed of to a minor (other than to a descendant by
reason of death) or to an incompetent.
(c) The General Partner may, in addition to any other
requirement it may impose, require as a condition of any
Disposition of a Limited Partner Interest that the transferor (i)
assume all costs incurred by the Partnership in connection
therewith and (ii) furnish the Partnership and the other Partners
with an opinion of counsel satisfactory to counsel to the
Partnership that such Disposition complies with applicable federal
and state securities laws.
(d) Any sale, exchange, transfer or other Disposition
of a Limited Partner Interest in contravention of any of the provisions
of this Section 8.3 shall be void and ineffectual and shall not
bind or be recognized by the Partnership.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in
this Article VIII, if at any time there is more than one Investment
Limited Partner, each Investment Limited Partner shall have a
right of first refusal to purchase the Interest of any other
Investment Limited Partner who wishes to sell or otherwise
transfer its Interest at a price equal to and on terms identical
to those of the prospective purchaser thereof, to the extent
reasonably practical, and shall have at least fifteen (15)
business days in which to exercise such right after receiving
notice thereof. If there shall be more than two non-selling or
transferring Investment Limited Partners, each of which desires
to exercise such a right of first refusal, they may do so pro
rata or, to the extent one does not so desire to exercise such
right, to the extent of the entire Interest being so sold or
transferred.
ARTICLE IX
Borrowings
All Partnership borrowings shall be subject to the terms
of this Agreement and the Project Documents and may be made from
any source, including Partners and their Affiliates. Any
Partnership borrowings from any Partner shall be subject to any
Requisite Approvals. If any Partner shall lend any monies to the
Partnership, the amount of any such loan shall not increase such
Partner's Capital Contribution. If any Partner shall so lend
monies, each such loan (a "Voluntary Loan") shall be an
obligation of the Partnership and (except for Subordinated Loans)
shall be repayable to such Partner on the same basis and with the same
rate of interest as would be applicable to a comparable loan to
the Partnership from a third party. Funds advanced by the
General Partner to the Partnership as Subordinated Loans shall
not constitute borrowings for the purposes of this Article IX or
for any other purposes.
ARTICLE X

or accrued on or after the Commencement Date shall be allocated 99.9%
to the Investment Limited Partner, 0.01% to the Class A Limited
Partner and 0.09% to the General Partner, provided,
however, that in any Fiscal Year in which Operating Profits are
generated, such Operating Profits shall be allocated to and
among the Partners in the same percentages as distributions of
Cash Flow are made pursuant to Clause Sixth of Section 10.2(a).
(b) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Article, all Profits and
Losses arising from a Capital Transaction shall be allocated to the
Partners as follows:
As to Profits:
First, that portion of Profits (including any Profits treated
as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes) shall be allocated
to the Partners who have negative Capital Account balances in proportion

to a Partner under this Clause First to increase any such Partner's Capital
Account above zero; and
Second, Profits in excess of the amounts allocated under Clause First
above shall be allocated to and among the Partners to the extent and in
such proportions as shall be necessary such that, after giving effect
thereto, the respective balances in all Partners' Capital Accounts shall
be in the ratio of 89.999% for the General Partner, .001% for the
Special Limited Partner, .001% for the Class A Limited Partner and 9.999%
for the Investment Limited Partner;
As to Losses:
Losses shall be allocated to the Partners to the extent and in such

Partner, .001% for the Class A Limited Partner and 9.999% for the
Investment Limited Partner;

First, to the payment of the Asset Management
Fee for such Fiscal Year and for any previous Fiscal
Year(s) as to which the Asset Management Fee shall not
yet have been paid in full;
Second, to the payment of any unpaid portion
of the Development Fee;
Third, to the repayment of any Subordinated

Sixth, the balance thereof, if any, shall
be distributed annually, seventy-five (75) days after the
end of the Fiscal Year, 10% to the Investment Limited
Partner and 90% to the General Partner.
(b) Distributions of Capital Proceeds
Prior to dissolution, if Capital Proceeds are
available for distribution from a Capital Transaction, such Capital
Proceeds shall be applied or distributed as follows:
First, to the payment of all matured debts and
liabilities of the Partnership (including, but not
limited to, all expenses of the Partnership incident to such Capital
Transaction), excluding (i) debts and liabilities of the Partnership
to Partners or their Affiliates and (ii) all unpaid fees owing to the

repayment of any such debts or obligations to any General Partner
or Affiliate thereof;
Sixth, to the payment of the Disposition Fee;
and
Seventh, subject to the provisions of Section

Partner, .001% to the Special Limited Partner, .001%
to the Class A Limited Partner and 89.999% to the
General Partner.
10.3 Distributions Upon Dissolution
(a) Upon dissolution and termination, after payment
of, or adequate provision for, the debts and obligations of the
Partnership, the remaining assets of the Partnership shall be
distributed to the Partners in accordance with the positive
balances in their Capital Accounts after taking into account all
Capital Account adjustments for the Partnership Fiscal Year,
including adjustments to Capital Accounts pursuant to Sections
10.1(b) and 10.3(b). In the event that a General Partner has a
negative balance in its Capital Account following the
liquidation of the Partnership or such Partner's Interest, after
taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for the
Partnership Fiscal Year in which such liquidation occurs, such
Partner shall pay to the Partnership in cash an amount equal to
the negative balance in such Partner's Capital Account. Such
payment shall be made by the end of such Fiscal Year (or, if
later, within ninety (90) days after the date of such
liquidation) and shall, upon liquidation of the Partnership, be
paid to recourse creditors of the Partnership or distributed to
other Partners in accordance with the positive balances in their
Capital Accounts.
(b) With respect to assets distributed in kind to
the Partners in liquidation or otherwise, (i) any unrealized
appreciation or unrealized depreciation in the values of such
assets shall be deemed to be Profits and Losses realized by the
Partnership immediately prior to the liquidation or other
distribution event; and (ii) such Profits and Losses shall be
allocated to the Partners in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.1(b), and any property so distributed shall be
treated as a distribution of an amount in cash equal to the
excess of such fair market value over the outstanding principal
balance of and accrued interest on any debt by which the
property is encumbered. For the purposes of this Section
10.3(b), the terms "unrealized appreciation" or "unrealized
depreciation" shall mean the difference between the fair market
value of such assets, taking into account the fair market value
of the associated financing (but subject to the provisions of Section
7701(g) of the Code), and the Partnership's adjusted basis for such
assets as determined under the applicable provisions of the Allocation
Regulations. This Section 10.3(b) is merely intended to provide
a rule for allocating unrealized gains and losses upon
liquidation or other distribution event, and nothing contained
in this Section 10.3(b) or elsewhere herein is intended to treat
or cause such distributions to be treated as sales for value.
The fair market value of such assets shall be determined by an
appraiser to be selected by the General Partner with the Consent
of the Special Limited Partner.
10.4 Special Provisions
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement,
all Profits, tax-exempt income, Losses, non-deductible non-
capitalizable expenditures, Tax Credits and cash distributions
shared by a class of Partners shall be shared by each Partner
in such class in the ratio of such Partner's paid-in Capital
Contribution to the paid-in Class Contribution of the class of
Partners of which such Partner is a member.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
this Article X:
(i) If (a) the Partnership incurs recourse obligations or Partner
Nonrecourse Debt (including, without limitation,Voluntary Loans or
Subordinated Loans) or (b) the Partnership incurs Losses from extraordinary
events which are not recovered from insurance or otherwise (collectively
"Recourse Obligations") in respect of any Partnership
Fiscal Year, then the calculation and allocation of Profits
and Losses shall be adjusted as follows: first, an amount
of deductions attributable to the Recourse Obligations
shall be allocated to the General Partner; and second, the
balance of such deductions shall be allocated as provided
in Section 10.1(a).
(ii) If any Profits arise from the sale
or other disposition of any Partnership asset which shall
be treated as ordinary income under the depreciation recapture
provisions of the Code, then the full amount of such
ordinary income shall be allocated among the Partners in
the proportions that the Partnership deductions from the
depreciation giving rise to such recapture were actually
allocated. In the event that subsequently-enacted
provisions of the Code result in other recapture income, no
allocation of such recapture income shall be made to any
Partner who has not received the benefit of those items
giving rise to such other recapture income.
(iii) If the Partnership shall receive any purchase money indebtedness
in partial payment of the purchase price of the Apartment Complex and
such indebtedness is distributed to the Partners pursuant to the provisions
of Section 10.2(b) or Section 10.3, the distributions of the
cash portion of such purchase price and the principal
amount of such purchase money indebtedness hereunder shall
be allocated among the Partners in the following manner:
On the basis of the sum of the principal amount of the
purchase money indebtedness and cash payments received on
the sale (net of amounts required to pay Partnership
obligations and fund reasonable reserves), there shall be
calculated the percentage of the total net proceeds
distributable to each class of Partners based on Section
10.2(b) or Section 10.3, as applicable, treating cash
payments and purchase money indebtedness principal
interchangeably for this purpose, and the respective classes shall
receive such respective percentages of the net cash purchase price and
purchase money principal. Payments on such purchase money
indebtedness retained by the Partnership shall be distributed in
accordance with the respective portions of principal allocated to the
respective classes of Partners in accordance with the preceding
sentence, and if any such purchase money indebtedness shall be sold,
the sale proceeds shall be allocated in the same proportion.
(iv) Income, gain, loss and deduction with respectto any asset
which has a variation between its basis computed in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Allocation
Regulations and its basis computed for federal income tax
purposes shall be shared among the Partners so as to take account of
such variation in a manner consistent with the principles of Section
704(c) of the Code and Section 1.7041(b)(2)(iv)(g) of the Allocation
Regulations.
(v) The terms "Profits" and "Losses" used in this
Agreement shall mean income and losses, and each item of
income, gain, loss, deduction or credit entering into the computation
thereof, as determined in accordance with the accounting methods
followed by the Partnership and computed in accordance with Treasury
Regulation Section 1.7041(b)(2)(iv). Profits and Losses for federal
income tax purposes shall be allocated in the same manner as set forth
in this Article X, except as provided in Section 10.4(b)(iv).
(vi) Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated 0.1% to
the General Partner and 99.9% to the Investment Limited
Partner.
(vii) Partner Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated
to and among the Partners in the manner provided in the
Allocation Regulations.
(viii) Subject to the provisions of Section 10.4(b)(xix),
if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain for a
Partnership Fiscal Year, the Partners shall be allocated items
of Partnership income and gain in accordance with
the provisions of Section 1.704-(2)(f) of the Allocation
Regulations.
(ix) Subject to the provisions of Section 10.4(b)(xix),
if there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt
Minimum Gain for a Partnership Fiscal Year then any Partner with a
Share of such Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain shall be allocated
items of Partnership income and gain in accordance with the provisions
of Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Allocation Regulations.
(x) Subject to the provisions of 10.4(b)(vi) through
10.4(b)(ix) above, in the event that any Limited Partner
unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions
described in Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) of the
Allocation Regulations, items of Partnership income and gain shall be
specially allocated to each such Partner in an amount and manner
sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Allocation
Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Limited
Partner as quickly as possible. This Section 10.4(b)(x) is intended
to constitute a "qualified income offset" provision within the meaning
of the Allocation Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently
therewith.
(xi) Subject to the provisions of Sections 10.4(b)(vi)
through 10.4(b)(x) above, in no event shall any Limited
Partner be allocated Losses which would cause it to have an Adjusted
Capital Account Deficit as of the end of any Partnership Fiscal Year.
Any Losses which are not allocated to a Limited Partner by reason of
the application of the provisions of this Section 10.4(b)(xi) shall be
allocated to the General Partner.
(xii) Subject to the provisions of Sections 10.4(b)(vi)
through 10.4(b)(xi) above, in the event that any Limited
Partner has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any
Partnership Fiscal Year, items of Partnership income and gain shall be
specially allocated to each such Limited Partner in the amount of such
Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as quickly as possible.
(xiii) Syndication Expenses for any Fiscal Year or
other period shall be specially allocated to the Investment
Limited Partner.
(xiv) For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses,
Tax Credits or any other items allocable to any period,
Profits, Losses, Tax Credits and any such other items shall be
determined on a daily, monthly, or other basis, as determined by the
General Partner using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and
the Treasury Regulations thereunder.
(xv) To the extent that interest on loans (or other
advances which are deemed to be loans) made by a General
Partner to the Partnership is determined to be deductible
by the Partnership in excess of the amount of interest actually
paid by the Partnership, such additional interest deduction(s)
shall be allocated solely to such General Partner.
(xvi) [Reserved]
(xvii) For purposes of determining each Partner's
proportionate share of the excess Nonrecourse Liabilities of
the Partnership pursuant to Section 1.752-3(a)(3) of the
Allocation Regulations, the Investment Limited Partner shall be
deemed to have a 99.9% interest in Profits and the General Partner
shall be deemed to have a 0.1% interest in Profits.
(xviii) Any recapture of any Tax Credit shall be
allocated to and among the Partners in the same manner in which
the Partners share the expenditures giving rise to such Tax
Credit.
(xix) If for any Fiscal Year the application of the
minimum gain chargeback provisions of Section 10.4(b)(viii)
or Section 10.4(b)(ix) of this Agreement would cause distortion in the
economic arrangement among the Partners and it is not expected that
the Partnership will have sufficient other income to correct that
distortion, the General Partner may request a waiver from the
Commissioner of the Service of the application in whole or in part of
Section 10.4(b)(viii) or Section 10.4(b)(ix) in accordance with
Section 1.7042(f)(4) of the Allocation Regulations. Furthermore, if
additional exceptions to the minimum gain chargeback requirements of
the Allocation Regulations have been provided through revenue rulings
or other Service pronouncements, the General Partner is authorized to
cause the Partnership to take advantage of such exceptions if to do
so would be in the best interest of a majority in interest of the Partners.
(xx) In the event that any fee payable to any General
Partner or any Affiliate thereof shall instead be determined
to be a non-deductible, non-capitalizable distribution from the
Partnership to a Partner for federal income tax purposes, then there
shall be allocated to such General Partner an amount of gross income
equal to the amount of such distribution.
(xxi) In applying the provisions of Article X with
respect to distributions and allocations, the following
ordering of priorities shall apply:
(1) Capital Accounts shall be deemed to be reduced by Qualified Income
Offset Items.
(2) Capital Accounts shall be reduced by distributions of Cash Flow
under Clause Sixth of Section 10.2(a).
(3) Capital Accounts shall be reduced by
distributions of Capital Proceeds under Clause Seventh of Section 10.2(b).
(4) Capital Accounts shall be increased by any minimum gain chargeback
under Section 10.4(b)(viii) or Section 10.4(b)(ix).
(5) Capital Accounts shall be increased by any qualified income offset
required under Section 10.4(b)(x).
(6) Capital Accounts shall be increased by allocations of Operating
Profits under Section 10.1(a).
(7) Capital Accounts shall be reduced by allocations of Operating
Losses under Section 10.1(a).
(8) Capital Accounts shall be reduced by allocations of Losses under
Section 10.1(b).
(9) Capital Accounts shall be increased by allocations of Profits under
Section 10.1(b).
(xxii) To the maximum extent permitted under the
Code, allocations of Profits and Losses shall be modified so
that the Partners' Capital Accounts reflect the amount they would
have reflected if adjustments required by Sections 10.4(b)(x),
10.4(b)(xi) and 10.4(b)(xii) had not occurred.
10.5 Authority of the General Partner to Vary Allocations
to Preserve and Protect the Partners' Intent
(a) It is the intent of the Partners that each Partner's
distributive share of Profits, tax-exempt income, Losses, non-
deductible non-capitalizable expenditures and Tax Credits (and
items thereof) shall be determined and allocated in accordance
with this Agreement to the fullest extent permitted by Section
704(b) of the Code and the Allocation Regulations. In order to
preserve and protect the determinations and allocations provided
for in this Agreement, the General Partner is hereby authorized
and directed to allocate Profits, tax-exempt income, Losses,
non-deductible non-capitalizable expenditures and credits (and items
thereof) arising in any Fiscal Year differently than otherwise
provided for in this Agreement to the extent that allocating
Profits, tax-exempt income, Losses, non-deductible non-
capitalizable expenditures or credits (or any item thereof) in
the manner provided for herein would cause the determinations
and allocations of each Partner's distributive share of Profits,
taxexempt income, Losses, non-deductible non-capitalizable
expenditures or credits (or any item thereof) not to be
permitted by Section 704(b) of the Code. Any allocation made
pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be deemed to be a complete
substitute for any allocation otherwise provided for in this
Agreement, and no amendment of this Agreement or approval of any
Partner shall be required.
(b) In making any allocation (the "New Allocation")
under Section 10.5(a), the General Partner is authorized to act
only after having been advised in writing by the Tax Accountants
that, under Section 704(b) of the Code and/or the Allocation
Regulations, (i) the New Allocation is necessary, and (ii) the
New Allocation is the minimum modification of the allocations
otherwise provided for in this Agreement necessary in order to
assure that, either in the then-current Fiscal Year or in any
preceding Fiscal Year, each Partner's distributive share of
Profits, tax-exempt income, Losses, non-deductible non-
capitalizable expenditures and Tax Credits (or any item thereof)
is determined and allocated in accordance with this Agreement to
the fullest extent permitted by Section 704(b) of the Code and
the Allocation Regulations.
(c) If the General Partner is required by Section
10.5(a) to make any New Allocation in a manner less favorable to
the Limited Partners than is otherwise provided for herein, then
the General Partner is authorized and directed, only after
having been advised in writing by the Tax Accountants that such
an allocation is permitted by Section 704(b) of the Code and the
Allocation Regulations, to allocate Profits, tax-exempt income,
Losses, nondeductible non-capitalizable expenditures and credits
(and any item thereof) arising in later years in such manner so as to
bring the allocations of Profits, tax-exempt income, Losses,
nondeductible non-capitalizable expenditures and credits (and
each item thereof) to the Limited Partners as nearly as possible
to the allocations thereof otherwise contemplated by this
Agreement.
(d) New Allocations made by the General Partner
under Section 10.5(a) and Section 10.5(c) in reliance upon the advice
of the Tax Accountants shall be deemed to be made pursuant to
the fiduciary obligation of the General Partner to the
Partnership and the Limited Partners, and no such allocation
shall give rise to any claim or cause of action by any Limited
Partner.
10.6 Recapture Amount
(a) If at any time during the "compliance period"
(as defined in Section 42(i)(1) of the Code), the Apartment
Complex ceases to be a "qualified low income housing project"
(as defined in Section 42(g)(1) of the Code) or any Low-Income
Unit in the Apartment Complex ceases to be a "low income unit"
(as defined in Section 42(i)(3) of the Code), and as a result
thereof all or any portion of credits allowed to the Partnership
and its Partners under Section 42 of the Code are subject to
recapture pursuant to Section 42(j) of the Code (such an
occurrence being referred to herein as a "Recapture Event"), the
Investment Limited Partner shall become entitled to additional
cash distributions equal to the "Recapture Amount".
(b) The Recapture Amount is an amount that, after deduction
of all federal income taxes payable by the Investment Limited
Partner (or its partners) as computed under Section 10.6(d) below,
is equal the sum of (i) the "credit recapture amount" allocable to
the Investment Limited Partner as defined in Section 42(j) of the
Code plus (ii) the amount of credits allocable to the Investment
Limited Partner which are disallowed in the year of the Recapture
Event and in each subsequent year.
(c) Any Recapture Amount distributable to the
Investment Limited Partner pursuant to the foregoing provisions
shall be distributed as funds become available for such
distributions, but such distributions shall not be made prior to
(i) in the case of the "credit recapture amount", the year of the
Recapture Event and (ii) in the case of any credits disallowed
with respect to any year subsequent to the Recapture Event, in
each such subsequent year.
(d) Determination of the Recapture Amount shall be made
on the assumption that receipt or accrual by each partner of the
Investment Limited Partner of any amounts distributable to such
partner under Subsection (c) above will currently be subject to
United States federal income tax at the highest marginal rate
applicable to corporations for the year(s) in question (and
assuming the non-applicability of the alternative minimum tax).
(e) All computations required under this Section 10.6
shall be made reasonably by the Investment Limited Partner, and the
results of such computations, together with a statement describing in
reasonable detail the manner in which such computations were made,
shall be delivered to the Managing General Partner in
writing. Within fifteen (15) days following receipt of such
computation, the Managing General Partner may request that the
Auditors determine whether such computations are reasonable and
are not erroneous. If the Auditors determine that such
computations are unreasonable or contain errors, then the Auditors
shall determine what they believe to be the appropriate
computations. If the Investment Limited Partner does not agree
with the determination of the Auditors, then another accounting
firm other than the Auditors to be selected jointly by the
Investment Limited Partner and the Managing General Partner or, if
they cannot agree, by the American Arbitration Association, from
among the ten largest national accounting firms, shall make such
computations. The computations of the Investment Limited Partner,
the Auditors, or the other accounting firm so selected, whichever
is applicable, shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the
parties. All fees and expenses payable to an accounting firm
other than the Auditors under this paragraph shall be borne solely
by the Managing General Partner. All fees and expenses payable to
the American Arbitration Association shall be borne equally by the
General Partner and the Investment Limited Partner.
ARTICLE XI
Management Agent
11.1 General
The General Partner shall engage the Management Agent to
manage the Apartment Complex pursuant to the Management Agreement.
The Management Agent shall receive a Management Fee of those
amounts payable from time to time by the Partnership to the

management contract approved by any Agency or Lender with the
right to approve the same, or, when any such management contract
is not subject to the approval of any Agency or Lender, in
accordance with a reasonable and competitive fee arrangement. The
initial Management Agent shall be Prime Property Management, Inc.
From and after the Admission Date, the Partnership shall not
enter into any Management Agreement or modify or extend any
Management Agreement unless (i) the General Partner shall have
obtained the prior Consent of the Special Limited Partner to the
identity of the Management Agent and the terms of the Management
Agreement or the modification or extension thereof and (ii) such
new Management Agreement or modified or extended Management
Agreement provides that it is terminable by the Partnership on

Insurance Requirements set forth in Exhibit D. Copies of such
policies (or binders) shall be provided to the Partnership and
the Investment Limited Partner within thirty (30) days after the
effective date of the Management Agreement and annually
thereafter.
11.2 Fees
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.1, however,
should the Investment General Partner or an Affiliate thereof
perform property management services for the Partnership,
property management, rent-up or leasing fees shall be paid to the
Investment General Partner or such Affiliate only for services
actually rendered and shall be in an amount equal to the lesser
of (i) fees competitive in price and terms with those of non-
affiliated Persons rendering comparable services in the locality
where the Apartment Complex is located and which could reasonably
be available to the Partnership, or (ii) five percent (5%) of the
gross revenues of the Apartment Complex. No duplicate property
manager fees shall be paid to any Person.
11.3 Removal and Replacement
If (i) the Apartment Complex shall be subject to a
substantial building code violation which shall not have been
cured within six (6) months after notice from a Governmental
Authority or (ii) the Partnership shall not have achieved a 1.15
to 1.00 Debt Service Coverage Ratio during any Fiscal Year
commencing on January 1, 1999, or (iii) an Event of Bankruptcy
shall occur with respect to the Management Agent, or (iv) the
Management Agent shall commit willful misconduct or gross
negligence in its conduct of its duties and obligations under the
Management Agreement or (v) there is any change in the Persons
acting as General Partners (to which the Special Limited Partner
has not consented), or (vi) the Management Agent is cited by the
Credit Agency or any other Tax Credit monitoring or compliance
agency of the State or any other Governmental Authority for a
violation or alleged violation of any applicable rules,
regulations or requirements, including, without limitation, non-
compliance with the Minimum Set-Aside Test, the Rent Restriction
Test or any other Tax Credit-related provision which citation is
not removed within six months of its issuance, then, upon request
by the Special Limited Partner and subject to Agency and Lender
approval, if required, the General Partner shall cause the
Partnership to promptly terminate the Management Agreement with
the Management Agent and appoint a new Management Agent selected
by the Special Limited Partner, which new Management Agent shall
not be an Affiliate of a General Partner. Each General Partner
hereby grants to the Special Limited Partner an irrevocable (to
the extent permitted by applicable law) power of attorney coupled
with an interest to take any action and to execute and deliver
any and all documents and instruments on behalf of such General
Partner and the Partnership as the Special Limited Partner may
deem to be necessary or appropriate in order to effectuate the
provisions of this Article XI. Subject to any
Requisite Approvals, the Partnership shall not enter into any
future management arrangement or renew or extend any existing
management arrangement unless such arrangement is terminable
without penalty upon the occurrence of the events described in
this Article XI.

12.1 Books and Records
The Partnership shall maintain all books and records
which are required under the Act or by any Governmental Authority
and may maintain such other books and records as the General
Partner in its discretion deems advisable. Each Limited Partner,
or its duly authorized representatives, shall have access to the
records of the Partnership at the principal office of the
Partnership at any and all reasonable times, and may inspect and
copy any of such records. A list of the name and addresses of
all of the Limited Partners shall be maintained as part of the
books and records of the Partnership and shall be mailed to any
Limited Partner upon request. The Partnership may require
reimbursement for any out of pocket expenses which it incurs as a
result of the exercise by any Limited Partner of its rights under
this Section 12.1, including, without limitation, photocopying
expenses. The General Partner shall cause the Partnership to
maintain at all times all informational and qualification files

(including security deposits and other funds required to be
escrowed by any Lender or Agency) and other funds not needed in

applicable law and to the extent permitted by applicable Agency
or Lender requirements, in interest bearing accounts or invested
in United States Government obligations maturing within one year.
12.3 Auditors
(a) The Auditors shall prepare, for execution by the
General Partner, all tax returns of the Partnership. Prior to
the filing of the Partnership tax returns, and in no event later
than February 15 of each Fiscal Year, the Auditors shall deliver
the tax returns for the prior Fiscal Year to the Tax Accountants
for their review and comment. If a dispute arises between the
Auditors and the Tax Accountants over the proper preparation of
the tax returns and such dispute cannot be resolved by the
Auditors and the Tax Accountants by March 1 of such Fiscal Year,
then the Tax Accountants shall make the final decision with
respect to whether any changes are necessary. The Partnership
shall reimburse the Investment Limited Partner and its Affiliates
for all costs and expenses paid to the Tax Accountants for the
aforementioned services.
(b) The Auditors shall certify all annual financial reports
to the Partners in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.
(c) If the Partnership fails to fulfill any of its
obligations under Section 12.7(a)(i) and/or Section 12.7(a)(ii)
within the time periods set forth therein, at any time thereafter
upon written notice from the Special Limited Partner, the General
Partner shall appoint replacement Auditors. If no such notice
from the Special Limited Partner is delivered, the Consent of the
Special Limited Partner must be received to the appointment of
replacement Auditors. If the General Partner fails to appoint
replacement Auditors within thirty (30) days of the notice from the
Special Limited Partner to replace the Auditors, then the Special
Limited Partner shall appoint replacement Auditors of its own
choosing, the cost of which shall be borne by the Partnership as a
Partnership expense. All of the Partners hereby grant to the Special
Limited Partner a special power of attorney, irrevocable to the
extent permitted by law, coupled with an interest, to so appoint
replacement Auditors and to anything else which in the judgment of
the Special Limited Partner may be necessary or appropriate to
accomplish the purposes of this Section 12.3(c).

Limited Partner copies of all such engagement letters and
agreements.
12.4 Cost Recovery and Elections
(a) With respect to all depreciable assets for which cost
recovery deductions are permitted, the Partnership shall elect to
use, so far as permitted by the provisions of the Code,
accelerated cost recovery methods. However, the Partnership may
change to another method of cost recovery if such other method is,
in the opinion of the Auditors, more advantageous to the
Investment Limited Partner (and the limited partners and/or
holders of beneficial assignee certificates thereof).
(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 12.5, all other
elections required or permitted to be made by the Partnership
under the Code shall be made by the General Partner in such manner
as will, in the opinion of the Auditors, be most advantageous to
the Investment Limited Partner and the limited partners and/or
holders of beneficial assignee certificates thereof.

beneficial assignee certificate of the Investment Limited Partner,
the Partnership shall elect, upon the request of the Investment
Limited Partner, pursuant to Section 754 of the Code, to adjust
the basis of the Partnership property. Any adjustments made
pursuant to said Section 754 shall affect only the successor in
interest to the transferring Partner or partner or holder of a
beneficial assignee certificate thereof. Each Partner will
furnish the Partnership all information necessary to give
effect to any such election.

addition, if the General Partner shall fail to pay any such
damages, the General Partner and its Affiliates shall forthwith
cease to be entitled to the distribution of any Cash Flow or
Capital Proceeds to which they may otherwise be entitled

(ii) loans made by, or guaranteed by, the Investment General
Partner or any of its Affiliates and (iii) those dealings,
contracts or provision of services described in the Investment
Partnership Agreement. Extraordinary circumstances shall only
be presumed to exist where there is an emergency situation
requiring immediate action and the services required are not
immediately available from unaffiliated parties. All services
rendered under such circumstances must be rendered pursuant to a
written contract which must contain a clause allowing
termination without penalty on sixty (60) days' notice. Goods
and services provided under such circumstances must be provided
at the lesser of actual cost or the price charged for such goods
or services by independent parties.
(c) In the event that extraordinary circumstances arise,
the Investment General Partner and its Affiliates may provide
construction services in connection with the Apartment Complex.
Neither the Investment General Partner nor any of its Affiliates
shall provide such services unless it believes it has an adequate
staff to do so and unless such provision of goods and construction
services is part of its ordinary and ongoing business in which it
has previously engaged, independent of the activities of the
Investment Limited Partner. Any such services must be reasonable
for and necessary to the Partnership, actually furnished to the
Partnership, and provided at the lower of one hundred percent (100%)
of the construction contract rate with respect to the Apartment
Complex or ninety percent (90%) of the competitive price charged for
such services by independent parties for comparable goods and
services in the same geographic location (except that in the case of
transfer agent, custodial and similar banking-type fees, and
insurance fees, the compensation, price or fee shall be at the
lesser of costs or the compensation, price or fee of any other
Person rendering comparable services as aforesaid). Cost of
services as used herein means the pro rata cost of personnel,
including an allocation of overhead directly attributable to such
personnel, based on the amount of time such personnel spend on such
services or other method of allocation acceptable to the accountants
for the Investment Limited Partner.
(d) All services provided by the Investment General
Partner or any Affiliate thereof pursuant to Section 12.8(c) must be
rendered pursuant to the Investment Partnership Agreement or a
written contract which precisely describes the services to be
rendered and all compensation to be paid and shall contain a clause
allowing termination without penalty upon sixty (60) days' notice to
the Investment General Partner by a vote of a majority in interest
of the limited partners and assignees of beneficial interests in the
Investment Limited Partner.
(e) No compensation or fees may be paid by the
Partnership to the Investment General Partner or its Affiliates
except as described in the Investment Partnership Agreement.
ARTICLE XIII
General Provisions
13.1 Restrictions by Reason of Section 708 of the Code
No Disposition of an Interest may be made if the
Interest sought to be Disposed of, when added to the total of
all other Interests Disposed of within the period of twelve (12)
consecutive months prior to the proposed date of the
Disposition, would, in the opinion of the Tax Accountants or tax
counsel to the Partnership, result in the termination of the
Partnership under Section 708 of the Code. This Section 13.1
shall have no application to any required repurchase of the
Investment Limited Partner's Interest. Any Disposition in
contravention of any of the provisions of this Section 13.1
shall be void ab initio and ineffectual and shall not bind or be
recognized by the Partnership. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 13.1, however, the Investment Limited
Partner may waive the provisions of this Section 13.1 at any
time as to a Disposition or series of Dispositions, and in the
event of such a waiver, this Section 13.1 shall have no force or
effect upon such Disposition or series of Dispositions.
13.2 Amendments to Certificates
Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of
the Partnership Fiscal Year in which the Investment Limited
Partner shall have received any distributions under Article X,

the amount of Capital Contribution of the Investment Limited
Partner as stated in the last previous amendment to the
Certificate. However, Schedule A shall not be amended on
account of any such distribution.
The Partnership shall amend the Certificate at least
once each calendar quarter to effect the substitution of
Substitute Limited Partners, although the General Partner may
elect to do so more frequently. In the case of assignments,
where the assignee does not become a Substitute Limited Partner,
the Partnership shall recognize the assignment not later than
the last day of the calendar month following receipt of notice
of assignment and all documentation required in connection
therewith hereunder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 13.2, no such amendments to the Certificate need be
filed by the General Partner if the Certificate is not required
to and does not identify the Limited Partners or their Capital
Contributions in such capacity.
13.3 Notices

obtained. No new Partner shall be admitted to the Partnership,
and no Partner shall withdraw from the Partnership or be

(if such consent is then required). No amendment to this

portion of the Apartment Complex required or permitted under

separable and (a) if for any reason any provision is determined
to be invalid, such invalidity shall not impair the operation of
or affect those portions of this Agreement which are valid, and
(b) if for any reason any provision would cause the Investment
Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner (in its capacity

requirements of any Agency or Lender), such provision or
provisions shall be deemed void and of no effect.
