"controlling interest" shall mean the power to direct the management and
policies of such person, directly or indirectly, whether through the
ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

Partners; Capital
4.1 Capital and Capital Accounts
(a) The Capital Contribution of each Partner shall be as set
forth on Schedule A. No interest shall be paid on any Capital
Contribution. No Partner shall have the right to withdraw its Capital
Contribution or to demand and receive property of the Partnership in
return for its Capital Contribution, except as may be specifically
provided in this Agreement or required by law.
(b) An individual Capital Account shall be established and
maintained on behalf of each Partner, including any additional or
substituted Partner who shall hereafter receive an interest in the
Partnership. In accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b),
the Capital Account of each Partner shall consist of (i) the amount of
cash such Partner has contributed to the Partnership plus (ii) the fair
market value of any property such Partner has contributed to the
Partnership net of any liabilities assumed by the Partnership or to
which such property is subject plus (iii) the amount of profits or
income (including tax-exempt income) allocated to such Partner less (iv)
the amount of losses and deductions allocated to such Partner less (v)
the amount of all cash distributed to such Partner less (vi) the fair
market value of any property distributed to such Partner net of any
liabilities assumed by such Partner or to which such property is subject
less (vii) such Partner's share of any other expenditures which are not
deductible by the Partnership for Federal income tax purposes or which
are not allowable as additions to the basis of Partnership property and
shall be (viii) subject to such other adjustments as may be required
under the Code. The Capital Account of a Partner shall not be affected
by any adjustments to basis made pursuant to Section 743 of the Code but
shall be adjusted with respect to adjustments to basis made pursuant to
Section 734 of the Code.
The original Capital Account established for any Substituted
Partner (as hereinafter defined) shall be in the same amount as, and
shall replace, the Capital Account of the Partner which such Substituted
Partner succeeds, and, for the purposes of this Agreement, such
Substituted Partner shall be deemed to have made the Capital
Contribution, to the extent actually paid in, of the Partner which such
Substituted Partner succeeds. The term "Substituted Partner" as used in
this paragraph, shall mean a Person who shall become entitled to receive
a share of the allocations and distributions of the Partnership by
reason of such Person succeeding to all or any part of the Interest of a
Partner by assignment of all or any part of a Partner's Interest. To
the extent a Substituted Partner receives less than 100% of the Interest
of a Partner he succeeds, the original Capital Account of such
transferee Substituted Partner and his Capital Contribution shall be in
proportion to the portion of the transferor Partner's Interest prior to
the transfer which the transferee receives, and the Capital Account of
the transferor Partner who retains a portion of his former Interest and
his Capital Contribution shall continue, and not be replaced, in
proportion to the portion of the transferor Partner's Interest prior to
the transfer which the transferor Partner retains. Nothing in this
Section 4.1(b) shall affect the limitations on transferability of
Interests set forth in Article VII or Article VIII.

The name, address and Capital Contribution of each General Partner
are as set forth on Schedule A.
4.3 Investment Limited Partner, Special Limited Partner and
Original Limited Partner
The Original Limited Partner hereby withdraws as a limited partner
of the Partnership and acknowledges that she no longer has any Interest
in, or rights or claims against, the Partnership as a Limited Partner as
of the Admission Date. The Investment Limited Partner and the Special
Limited Partner are hereby admitted as the sole Limited Partners in
substitution for the Original Limited Partner as of the Admission Date
and agree to be bound by the terms and provisions of the Project
Documents and this Agreement. The names and addresses of the Investment
Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner are as set forth on
Schedule A. The General Partners shall have no authority to admit
additional Limited Partners without the Consent of the Investment
Limited Partner.
4.4 Liability of the Limited Partners
None of the Investment Limited Partner, the Special Limited
Partner and any Person who becomes an Additional Limited Partner shall
be liable for any debts, liabilities, contracts or obligations of the
Partnership, except as provided by the Uniform Act or the Escrow
Agreement, and shall only be liable to pay their respective Capital
Contributions as and when the same are due hereunder and under the
Uniform Act.
4.5 Special Rights of the Investment Limited Partner, and the
Special Limited Partner
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, to the extent
the law of the State is not inconsistent, each of the Investment Limited
Partner and the Special Limited Partner shall have the right, subject to
the prior written consent of any Agency (if such consent is required)
to:
(i) amend this Agreement in any particular;
(ii) dissolve the Partnership;
(iii) remove any General Partner and elect a new General
Partner (A) on the basis of the performance and discharge of such
General Partner's obligations constituting fraud, bad faith,
negligence, misconduct or breach of fiduciary duty, or (B) upon
the occurrence of any of the following: (1) such General Partner
shall have violated any provisions of any Project Document or
other document required in connection with any Mortgage, or any
provisions of any Agency regulations applicable to the
Partnership Property; (2) such General Partner shall have violated
any provision of this Agreement, including, but not limited to,
any obligation to fund any Partnership expense under Section 6.10,
or such General Partner shall have violated any provision of
applicable law; (3) any Mortgage shall have gone into default; or
(4) such General Partner shall have conducted its own affairs or
the affairs of the Partnership in such a manner as would (a) cause
the termination of the Partnership for Federal income tax
purposes; or (b) cause the Partnership to be treated for Federal
income tax purposes as an association taxable as a corporation;
(iv) continue the business of the Partnership with a
substitute General Partner; and
(v) approve or disapprove the sale of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Partnership.
(b) Upon the removal of a General Partner, (i) without any
further action by any Partner, the Special Limited Partner shall
automatically become a 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 Investment 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 Uniform
Act, (ii) such portion of the economic Interest as an Additional Limited
Partner, (iii) the economic Interest of the Special Limited Partner as
the Special Limited Partner shall continue unaffected by the new status
of the Special Limited Partner as a General Partner, and (iv) the new
General Partner (which shall also continue to be the Special Limited
Partner) shall automatically be delegated all of the powers and duties
of the General Partners pursuant to Section 6.13. The former Special
Limited Partner of any successor General Partner proposed by the former
Special Limited Partner shall have the option, exercisable in its sole
discretion, to acquire the remainder of the Additional Limited Partner
Interest, or any portion thereof, of any removed General Partner upon
payment of the agreed or then present fair market value of such interest
or portion thereof. Any dispute as to the value of the Interest or
portion thereof to be acquired pursuant to the immediately preceding
sentence shall be submitted to a committee composed of three qualified
real estate appraisers, one chosen by the removed General Partner, one
chosen by the successor General Partner or the Investment Limited
Partner, as the case may be, and the third chosen by the two so chosen.
The proceedings of such committee shall conform to the rules of the
American Arbitration Association, as far as appropriate, and its
decision shall be final and binding. The expense of arbitration shall
be born equally by the removed General Partner and the Partnership. The
method of payment to the removed General Partner shall be fair and must
protect the solvency and liquidity of the Partnership. The method of
payment will be deemed presumptively fair where it provides for an
interest-bearing promissory note coming due in no less than five (5)
years with equal installments each year. In addition, upon removal, the
Partnership must promptly pay to the removed General Partner all amounts
then accrued and owing to the removed General Partner; provided,
however, that notwithstanding the language of Section 6.12, Article X,
Article XI and any other provision hereof, no removed General Partner or
any Affiliate thereof shall be entitled to receive any fee, compensation
or other remuneration from the Partnership, other than (i) the above-
described payment for the Interest, or portion thereof, of the removed
General Partner, and (ii) any such fee, compensation or other
remuneration which had already been earned in full prior the date of
such removal. The Partnership is not authorized to enter into any
arrangement whereby any fee, compensation or other remuneration could be
payable directly or indirectly to any General Partner or Affiliate
thereof in a manner inconsistent with the immediately preceding sentence
unless the prior written consent of the Special Limited Partner shall
have been obtained to such particular agreement. The Partnership may
offset against any payments to a General Partner removed under this
Section 4.5 any damages suffered by the Partnership as a result of any
breach of the obligations of such General Partner hereunder. A General
Partner so removed will not be liable as a General Partner for any
obligations of the Partnership after the effective date of its removal.
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.
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 Partners shall
provide all Limited Partners within ten (10) days after receipt of said
request, written notice (either in person or by certified mail) of a
meeting and the purpose of such meeting to be held on a date not less
then fifteen (15) nor more than sixty (60) days after receipt of said
request, at a time convenient to the Limited Partners. All meetings
shall be held at the principal office of the Partnership.
ARTICLE V
Capital Contributions of the Investment Limited Partner
and the Special Limited Partner
5.1 Payments
(a) The Special 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 shall be paid in cash
installments (the "Installments"), as follows:
(1) $130,360 (the "First Installment") on the latest of
(i) the Admission Date, (ii) Tax Credit Set-Aside, (iii) closing
of the Construction Mortgage or (iv) receipt of a commitment
acceptable to the Investment Limited Partner for the Permanent
Mortgage;
(2) $43,453 (the "Second Installment") upon 50% completion
based on total projected costs; and,
(3) $43,453 (the "Third Installment") upon the latest to
occur of (i) the Completion Date, (ii) Cost Certification, (iii)
receipt of an updated title insurance policy satisfactory to the
Investment Limited Partner, (iv) Compliance with Due Diligence
recommendations, or (v) receipt by the Investment Limited Partner
of estoppel letters from each Lender.
provided, however, that the First Installment shall be paid in
accordance with and subject to the Escrow Agreement executed
herewith and provided further, that the General Partners shall
give the Investment Limited Partner not less than ten (10) days'
written notice prior to the due date of each Installment
subsequent to the First Installment.
(b) The obligation of the Investment Limited Partner to pay each
Installment is conditioned upon delivery by the General Partners 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 have been satisfied
and (ii) all representations and warranties of the General Partners
contained in this Agreement are true and correct. 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 con-
ditioned upon delivery by the General Partners to the Investment Limited
Partner of (i) a legal opinion of independent counsel to the
Partnership, which opinion must be satisfactory to the Investment
Limited Partner as to form, content and identity of counsel and (ii) a
photocopy of an owner's title insurance policy, or an endorsement
thereto, issued to the Partnership with respect to the Partnership
Property with an effective date on or after the Admission Date, in an
insured amount of not less than $570,114 from a title insurance company
reasonably satisfactory to the Investment Limited Partner and evidencing
the Partnership's ownership of the Partnership Property, subject only to
such exclusions, exceptions, conditions and stipulations as shall be
acceptable to the Investment Limited Partner, in its sole discretion.
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" (expenses in
excess of revenues which the General Partners 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 or Section 10.2(c) to
be used to pay fees or special distributions, then such proceeds shall
be utilized to pay such fees or special distributions and the recipients
thereof shall be required to, and hereby agree to, utilize the proceeds
of such fees or special distributions 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 Partners 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, then the Investment Limited Partner shall pay
such Installment to the Partnership thirty (30) days after delivery by
the General Partners 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) If with respect to any year all or a portion of which occurs
during the 60-month period commencing on the later of (i) the Admission
Date or (ii) the date on which the first building in the Partnership
Property is placed in service for the purposes of Section 42 of the Code
(a "Reduction Year") the Actual Credit is or was less than the Projected
Credit, then the General Partners 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 for such year over the
Actual Credit for such year multiplied by .814 plus (B) the amount of
any recapture, interest or penalty payable by the limited partners
and/or the holders of beneficial assignee certificates of the Investment
Limited Partner as a result of such shortfall, assuming that each
limited partner and/or each holder of a beneficial assignee certificate
in the Investment Limited Partner used all of the Tax Credits allocated
to him in the 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 year.
The Capital Contribution of the Investment Limited Partner shall be
subject to reduction as hereinabove described with respect to each
Reduction Year. Any reduction in the Capital Contribution of the
Investment Limited Partner shall, at the option of the Investment
Limited Partner, either (i) first be applied to reduce 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 reduce 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 Partners to the Investment
Limited Partner promptly after demand is made therefor, as a payment of
damages for breach of warranty or (ii) be paid in its entirety by the
General Partners to the Investment Limited Partner promptly after demand
is made therefor, as a payment of damages for breach of warranty.
(f) In the event that, for any reason, at any time after the
sixty (60)-month anniversary of the completion of construction, the
amount of the Actual Credit shall be less than the Projected Credit 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 year (a "Credit Recovery Loan"), which
shall be deemed to have been made on January 1 of such year in an amount
equal to the sum of (i) the Credit Shortfall for such year plus (ii) the
amount of any recapture, interest or penalty 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
year, 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 him in the 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(f) at 9% per annum. Credit
Recovery Loans shall be payable by the Partnership as provided in
Section 10.2(b), Clause Third.
(g) In the event that (i) State Designation does not occur by
December 31, 1996, or (ii) by December 31, 1996, the Limited Partners
shall not have received a written certification of the Auditors in a
form and in substance satisfactory for the purpose of achieving Cost
Certification and indicating that the product of the Partnership
Property's Eligible Basis and its Applicable Percentage is such that the
Partnership Property will be eligible to receive Tax Credit in an annual
amount of at least $36,978, or (iii) at any time after the Completion
Date the product of the Partnership Property's Eligible Basis and its
Applicable Percentage is determined by the Auditors, the Tax Accountants
or the Service to be such that the Partnership Property will not be
eligible to receive Tax Credit in an annual dollar amount of at least
$36,978, then (a) the General Partners shall pay to the Investment
Limited Partner an amount equal to 99% of the product of (A) difference
between (i) $36,978 and (ii) the total annual amount of Tax Credit
allocated and available to the Partnership and (B) 8.14 and (b) the
Projected Credit for each year shall thereafter be redefined to mean 99%
of the total amount of Tax Credit actually so allocated and available to
the Partnership for such year (the "Revised Projected Credit").
5.2 Return of Capital Contributions
(a) Failure to Achieve Development and/or Tax Credit Benchmarks
and Standards. If (i) all of the single family home units in the
Partnership Property shall not have been placed in service prior to
December 31 in the year in which the Tax Credits were allocated and the
Partnership does not receive a Carryover Allocation (or any later date
fixed by the General Partners with the Consent of the Investment Limited
Partner) or (ii) by December 31, 1996 (or any later date fixed by the
General Partners with the Consent of the Investment Limited Partner)

necessary Agency or Lender approvals at rental levels meeting the
requirements of the Rent Restriction Test, or (iii) Permanent Mortgage
Commencement shall not have occurred prior to December 31, 1996 (or any
later date fixed by the General Partners with the Consent of the
Investment Limited Partner), or (iv) State Designation shall not have
occurred by December 31, 1996 (or any later date fixed by the General
Partner with the Consent of the Investment Limited Partner), or (v) 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 those Tests at any time
during the sixty (60)-month period commencing on such date or (vi) prior
to Permanent Mortgage Commencement, (a) foreclosure proceedings shall
have commenced under the Construction Mortgage and such proceedings
shall not have been dismissed within sixty (60) days, (b) any of the
commitments of any Lender or Agency to provide the Permanent Mortgage
and/or any subsidy financing shall be terminated or withdrawn and not
reinstated or replaced within ninety (90) days with terms equally or
more favorable to the Investment Limited Partner or terms for which the
Consent of the Investment Limited Partner and (if required) the approval
of any Lender or Agency shall have been obtained, or (c) the
Construction Lender shall have irrevocably refused to make any further
advances under the Construction Mortgage and such decision shall not
have been reversed or the Construction Lender replaced within sixty (60)
days, or (vii) if by December 31, 1996 (or any later date fixed by the
General Partners with the Consent of the Investment Limited Partner),
the Investment Limited Partner shall not have received a written
certification of the Auditors, in a form and in substance satisfactory
to Boston Capital, as to the respective amounts of the Qualified Basis
and the Applicable Percentage pertaining to each building in the
Partnership Property, or (viii) if at any time it shall be determined by
the Auditors, the Tax Accountants, or the Service that as of December
31, 1996, the Partnership did not own land or depreciable property
constituting part of the Partnership Property and had incurred
capitalizable costs with respect to the Partnership Property of at least
ten percent (10%) of the Partnership's reasonably expected basis in the
Partnership Property as of December 31, 1996 so that each building in
the Partnership Property constitutes a "qualified building" for the
purposes of Section 42(h)(1)(E)(ii) of the Code, or (ix)if within 12
months of the Completion Date Rental Achievement has not been achieved,
or (x) the Completion Date has not occurred by December 31, 1996, or
(xi) the general Partners fail to make the subordinated loans as
required by Section 6.10, then the General Partners shall, within
fifteen (15) days of the occurrence thereof, send to the Investment
Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner notice of such event and
of the General Partners' obligation to repurchase the Interests of the
Investment Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner by paying to
the Investment Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner an amount
equal to each such Partner's Invested Amount in the event the Investment
Limited Partner and/or the Special Limited Partner so require. If
either the Special Limited Partner or the Investment Limited Partner
elects to require a repurchase of its Interest and the payment to it of
an amount equal to its Invested Amount, it shall send notice thereof to
the Partnership within sixty (60) days after the mailing date of the
General Partners' notice (or at any time after the occurrence of any of
the foregoing if the General Partners shall not have sent such a notice
thereof) and the General Partners shall within thirty (30) days
thereafter repurchase the Interest of such Partner by paying to each
such Partner an amount equal to its Invested Amount plus the amount of
any third party costs incurred by or on behalf of such Partner in
implementing this Section 5.2(a).
(b) Lender Disapproval. If the Construction Lender and/or the
Permanent 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
selected by the Partner being disapproved or not approved shall, (or
such other time as may be specified by the Construction Lender and/or
the Permanent Lender in its disapproval),at the option of the Partner
being disapproved or not approved (if not directed by the Construction
Lender and/or the Permanent Lender not to withdraw), cease to be a
Limited Partner. The General Partners 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 plus the amount
of any third party costs, incurred by or on behalf of such Partner in
implementing this Section 5.2(b).
(c) Substitution and Indemnification. Upon 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) of
an amount equal to the sum of its Investment Amount plus the amount of
any third party costs, the Interest of such Partner shall terminate, and
the General Partners shall indemnify and hold harmless such Partner from
any losses, damages, and liabilities to which such Partner (as a result
of its participation hereunder) may be subject, except for negligence,
fraud, misconduct or breach by such Partner.
(d) Waiver of Repurchase Right. The Investment 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
Partners 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 from that date forward.
(e) Additional General Partner. If the General Partners 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 be admitted as an additional
General Partner, with the same collective economic interest in the
Partnership as a General Partner and a Special Limited Partner as the
economic interest in the Partnership which it formerly held as a Special

reserve account has a balance of not less than $10,000 to the extent
that Cash Flow (as determined before deduction of this reserve deposit)
for any year shall be insufficient to make such deposit in full, the
General Partners shall fund such shortfall from their own funds as a
Subordinated Loan. Funding of replacement reserves may be suspended
during any period when this account has a balance of at least $10,000,
but must resume should said balance at any time drop below $10,000.
(f) Each General Partner shall be bound by the Project Documents,
and no additional General Partner shall be admitted if he, she or it has

time to time are insufficient to (i) acquire and complete the
construction of the Partnership Property and satisfy all other
obligations, all as provided in the first sentence of this Section
6.11(a), (ii) make the special distributions to the General Partners
described in Section 10.2(c), (iii) pay the Construction and Development
Fee, (iv) arrive at Permanent Mortgage Commencement in conformity with
the Project Documents, (v) discharge all Partnership liabilities and
obligations arising out of any casualty giving rise to any such
insurance proceeds, and (vi) provide for all other payments and expenses
required to be made or incurred through the later of Permanent Mortgage
Commencement or the Admission Date, including the funding of any
reserves required hereunder or under any other Project Document and the
repayment in full of all obligations under the Construction Mortgage,
the General Partners shall be responsible for and obligated to pay such
deficiencies and shall, to the extent permitted under the Project
Documents and any applicable regulations or requirements of the Lenders
and/or any Agency, be reimbursed at or prior to the later of Permanent
Mortgage Commencement or the Admission Date only out of the proceeds
designated in this sentence available from time to time after payment of
all costs described in this sentence. Any amounts not reimbursed
through the later of Permanent Mortgage Commencement or Admission Date
only out of the proceeds of the Capital Contribution of the Investment
Limited Partner as provided in Section 5.1 shall not be reimbursable or
otherwise change the Interest of any Person in the Partnership but shall
be borne by the General Partners; provided, however, that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any such amounts represent
items which are properly included in the Partnership's Qualified Basis
for purposes of Section 42 of the Code and result in an increase in the
amount of Tax Credit allocated and available to the Partnership over and
above the amount of Tax Credit required in order to achieve State
Designation ("Includable Items"), the General Partners shall make an
additional Capital Contribution in the amount of the Includable Items
and the Partnership shall utilize the proceeds of such additional
Capital Contribution to pay the Includable Items. In the event that the
General Partners shall fail to fund any such deficiency as required by
this Section 6.11, an amount not in excess of the next installment of
the Construction and Development Fee due to the General Partners or any
of their Affiliates under Section 6.12 or any other provision hereof
shall be applied by the Partnership to meet such obligation of the
General Partners, and, to the extent there may still be a deficiency,
any amounts otherwise payable as the Annual Partnership Management Fee
or distributable to the General Partners pursuant to Article X shall be
so applied. Any such application of funds as described in the
immediately preceding sentence shall constitute a payment of the amount
of the Fee or such other item which such funds had been earmarked to
pay, and the obligation of the General Partners to advance such amount
under this Section 6.11 shall be satisfied to the extent of such
application.
6.12 Certain Payments to the General Partners and Others
(a) The Partnership shall pay to the General Partners, or their
designee, a fee (the "Annual Partnership Management Fee") commencing in
1998 for services in connection with the administration of the day to
day business of the Partnership in an annual amount equal to $500 per
annum . The Annual Partnership Management Fee for each fiscal year of
the Partnership shall be payable from Cash Flow in the manner and
priority set forth in Section 10.2(a).
(b) In consideration of their consultation, advice and other
services in connection with the construction and development of the
Partnership Property and as consideration for the assignment described
in Section 6.14, the Partnership shall pay to the General Partners (or
their designee) a construction and development fee (the "Development
Fee") in the principal amount of $29,891 which fee shall be earned in
full as to each building in the Partnership Property as of the date such
building is completed. The Development Fee shall be payable $29,891
from the proceeds of the Third Installment. Any portion of the
Construction and Development Fee which shall not have been paid after
payment of the Installments shall be payable from cash flow as set forth
in Section 10.2, with the deferred developer's fee being paid in full by
the tenth year of operations. Any amount remaining to be paid at that
time will be paid in full by the General Partner, and will be considered
a capital contribution to the Partnership as of the date which is six
months after it shall have been earned shall accrue interest at the
Applicable Federal Rate in effect at the time earned from the date
earned through the date of payment; any such interest shall be payable
in accordance with the provisions of Article X.
(c) The Partnership shall pay to BCCLP or an Affiliate thereof a
fee (the "Asset Management Fee ") commencing in 1998 for its services in
connection with the Partnership's accounting matters relating to the
Investment Limited Partner and assisting with the preparation of tax
returns and the reports required by Section 12.7 in the annual amount of
$500. 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 in any fiscal year commencing with 1998, Cash Flow is
insufficient to pay the full amount of the Asset Management Fee, the
General Partner shall be obligated to make Subordinated Loans to the
Partnership to cover the Asset Management Fee.
6.13 Delegation of General Partner Authority
If there shall be more than one General Partner 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.
Every contract, deed, mortgage, lease and other instrument
executed by any General Partner shall be conclusive evidence in favor of
every Person relying thereon or claiming thereunder that at the time of
the delivery thereof (a) the Partnership was in existence, (b) this
Agreement had not been 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
(c) the execution and delivery of such instrument was duly authorized by
the General Partners. Any Person may always rely on a certificate
addressed to him and signed by any General Partner hereunder:
(1) As to who are the General Partners or Limited Partners
hereunder;
(2) As to the existence or nonexistence of any fact which
constitutes a condition precedent to acts by the General Partners
or in any other manner germane to the affairs of the Partnership;
(3) As to who is authorized to execute and deliver any
instrument or document of the Partnership;
(4) As to the authenticity of any copy of this Agreement,
the Certificate, and amendments thereto; or
(5) As to any act or failure to act by the Partnership or as
to any other matter whatsoever involving the Partnership or any
Partner.
6.14 Assignment to Partnership
The General Partners hereby transfer and assign to the Partnership
all of their right, title, and interest in and to the Partnership
Property and in and to all of the Project Documents, including, but not
limited to, the following: (i) all contracts with architects,
supervising architects, engineers and contractors with respect to the
development of the Partnership Property; (ii) all plans, specifications
and working drawings heretofore prepared or obtained in connection with
the Partnership Property; (iii) all governmental commitments and
approvals obtained, and applications therefor, including, but not
limited to, those relating to planning, zoning, building permits and Tax

any Lender; and (vi) any other work product related to the Partnership

ARTICLE VII
Withdrawal of a General Partner; New General Partners
7.1 Withdrawal
(a) No General Partner shall Withdraw from the Partnership (other
than by reason of death or adjudication of incompetence or insanity) or
sell, assign or encumber its Interest without the Consent of the
Investment Limited Partner and all the other General Partners, except
that if the Special Limited Partner becomes a General Partner pursuant
to Section 4.5(b), it shall not require the consent of any other General
Partner to transfer all or any portion of its interest as a General
Partner, other than as may be required under the Uniform Act. In the
event of any Withdrawal by a General Partner in violation of this
Section 7.1, such General Partner, in addition to being subject to any
and all other legal remedies which may be pursued by the Partners, shall
forfeit to the Special Limited Partner, such General Partner's Interest
and all unpaid fees from the Partnership and shall remain liable for all
of the Withdrawing General Partner's obligations under this Agreement;
provided, however, that the Withdrawing General Partner's liability
hereunder shall be limited to obligations arising prior to his
Withdrawal, and shall include no obligations arising after such
Withdrawal. In addition, upon such Withdrawal and transfer, the Special
Limited Partner or its designee shall automatically become a General
Partner without further action by the Withdrawing General Partner or any
other Partner, and the Investment Limited Partner hereby consents to
such transfer and to the admission of the Special Limited Partner or its
designee as a General Partner in such a situation. Such transfer shall
occur automatically upon such Withdrawal without further action by such
Withdrawing General Partner.
(b) If at any time the only General Partners shall be one or more
corporations (or partnerships with corporations as sole general
partners), they shall be obligated to have a net worth which satisfies
the 89-12 Requirements. If the General Partners shall at any time fail
to meet the requirements of this Section 7.1(b), then they shall be
deemed to have withdrawn from the Partnership in violation of the
provisions of this Section 7.1 and shall be subject to the provisions of
Section 7.1(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this
Section 7.1(b) shall not apply to the Special Limited Partner in the
event it becomes the sole General Partner.
7.2 Obligation to Continue
Upon the Withdrawal of a General Partner, the remaining General
Partners shall have the right and obligation to continue the business of
the Partnership employing its assets and name, all as contemplated by
the Uniform Act. Within thirty (30) days after they obtain knowledge of
the Withdrawal of a General Partner, the remaining General Partners
shall notify the Investment Limited Partner or its designee of such
Withdrawal.
7.3 Withdrawal of All General Partners
If, following the Withdrawal of a General Partner, there is no
remaining General Partner, the Investment Limited Partner and the
Special Limited Partner may elect to reconstitute the Partnership and
continue the business of the Partnership for the balance of the term
specified in Section 2.4 by selecting a successor General Partner. If
the Investment Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner elect to
reconstitute the Partnership pursuant to this Section 7.3 and admit the
designated successor General Partner, the relationship among the then
Partners shall be governed by this Agreement.
7.4 Interest of General Partner After Permitted Withdrawal
In the event of the Withdrawal of a General Partner not in
violation of Section 7.1 and except as otherwise provided in Section
4.5(b), the Withdrawing General Partner hereby covenants and agrees to
transfer to the remaining General Partners or to a successor General
Partner selected in accordance with Section 7.3, as the case may be,
such portion of the Withdrawing General Partner's Interest as such
remaining or successor General Partners may designate, such transfer to
be made in consideration of the payment by the transferee of either the
agreed value of such Interest or, if such value is not agreed to, the
fair market value of such Interest as determined by a committee of three
qualified real estate appraisers, one selected by the Withdrawing
General Partner, one selected by the transferee and a third selected by
the other two. The portion of the Withdrawing General Partner's
Interest designated to be transferred in accordance with the provisions
of this Section 7.4 shall be sufficient to ensure the continued treat-
ment of the Partnership as a partnership under the Code and as a limited
part nership under the Uniform Act, and, for the purposes of Article X,
shall be deemed to be effective as of the date of Withdrawal, but the
Partnership shall not make any distributions to the designated
transferee until the transfer shall have been made. Any holder of any
portion of the Interest of a Withdrawing General Partner which is not
designated to be transferred to the remaining or successor General
Partners pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7.4 shall become an
Additional Limited Partner but (i) with the same share of the profits,
losses, tax credits, Cash Flow and other distributions to which the
holder of such Interest was entitled when held as a General Partner
Interest, and (ii) shall not participate in the votes or Consents of the
Investment Limited Partner hereunder. The admission of any successor or
additional General Partner shall be subject to the consent of the
Lenders and any Agency (if required) and the Consent of the Investment
Limited Partner.
7.5 Admission of Additional General Partner(s) under Certain
Circumstances
In the event each of the General Partners is a corporation and the
General Partners at any time, or from time to time, fail to have a net
worth which satisfies the 89-12 Requirements, the Special Limited
Partner or its designee(s) shall be admitted (and each hereby agrees to
be admitted), automatically and without further action by them or any
Partner, as additional General Partner(s), notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement. The General Partners hereby agree to take
all action necessary to implement this Section 7.5. Further, the
General Partners agree in such event to give prompt written notice
thereof to each Lender and Agency. If any Lender or Agency rejects the
admission of any additional General Partner so admitted as a General
Partner, then such additional General Partner shall withdraw as a
General Partner promptly after an additional General Partner acceptable
to each Lender and Agency is admitted to the Partnership.
Simultaneously with such admission, each of the previously admitted
General Partners shall be deemed to have assigned proportionally to the
additional General Partner(s), automatically and without further action,
such portion of its General Partner Interest so that the additional
General Partner shall receive not less than a one percent (1%) interest
(or such greater percentage as may be required either (i) in the opinion
of the Tax Accountants, to assure the partnership status of the
Partnership for Federal income tax purposes or (ii) by any Agency in the
profits, losses, tax credits and distributions of the Partnership in
consideration of $1.00 and any other consideration which may be agreed
upon. An additional General Partner so admitted shall automatically
become the Managing General Partner and be irrevocably delegated all of
the power and authority of all of the General Partners pursuant to
Section 6.13. Each such additional General Partner shall remain a
General Partner until a Lender or Agency shall object thereto in writing
or until such time as, in the opinion of the Tax Accountants, the
Partnership would continue to be treated as a partnership for Federal
income tax purposes notwithstanding their Withdrawal. At such time,
each such additional General Partner may, at its option, then Withdraw
without the approval of the Limited Partners upon reassignment of its
entire Interest to the remaining General Partners. Each partner hereby
grants to the Special Limited Partner a special power of attorney,
irrevocable to the extent permitted by law and coupled with an interest,
to amend the Certificate and this Agreement and to do anything else
which, in the view of the Special Limited Partner, may be necessary or
appropriate to accomplish the purposes of this Section 7.5 or 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
obligations hereunder, and each other General Partner shall fully
indemnify and hold harmless the additional General Partner from and
against any and all losses, judgments liabilities, expenses and amounts
paid in settlement of any claims sustained in connection with its
capacity as a 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 Section 8.1(b), no Limited Partner may assign all or
any part of its Interest without the written consent of the General
Partners, the giving or withholding of which is exclusively within their
discretion.
(b) A Limited Partner, without the consent of the General
Partners, may assign to any Person all or any portion of the economic
benefits of the ownership of its 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,
and shall only have, the right to receive the share of allocations and
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) Every 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
No Limited Partner shall have the right to substitute an assignee
as Limited Partner in its place. Subject to Section 8.3, the General
Partners may, however, in their sole discretion, permit an assignee to
become a Substituted Limited Partner. The consent of the General
Partners to an assignment of a Limited Partner Interest under Section
8.1 shall not, in and of itself, constitute permission under this
Section 8.2.
Any Substituted Limited Partner shall execute such instrument or
instruments as shall be required by the General Partners 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 may be made if such Disposition would violate
Section 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 Partners may, in addition to any other requirement
they may impose, require as a condition of any Disposition 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 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.
ARTICLE IX
Borrowings
9.1 Borrowings
All Partnership borrowings shall be subject to the terms of this
Agreement, including, but not limited to, the restrictions of Section
6.2, and may be made from any source, including Partners and their
Affiliates. If any Partner shall lend any monies to the Partnership,
the amount of any such loan shall not be an increase of such Partner's
Capital Contribution. If any Partner shall so lend monies, such loans
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.
9.2 General Partner Admission Loan
The General Partner has agreed to make the General Partner
Admission Loan to the Partnership in the initial amoun of $72,389. The
General Partner Admission Loan shall bear interest and be repayable in
accordance with the terms of the General Partner Admission Note. The
proceeds of the General Partner Admission Loan shall be advanced to the
Partnership upon the occurrence of all of the conditions to the payment
of the First Installment.
ARTICLE X

and Capital Accounts
10.1 Profits, Losses and Tax Credits

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)

Partner under this Clause First to increase any such
Partner's Capital Account above zero;
Second, profits in excess of the amounts allocated
under Clause First above shall be allocated to the General
Partners in an amount equal to the amount of cash

under Clauses First and Second above shall be allocated to
the Investment Limited Partner in an amount equal to the

Partner the full amount (including interest) of the Credit

Fourth, profits in excess of the amounts allocated
under Clauses First, Second and Third above shall be
allocated (i) to the Investment Limited Partner in an amount
equal to the sum of (a) its Invested Amount plus (b) the
full amount (including interest) of any Credit Recovery
Loans and (ii) to each other Limited Partner in an amount
equal to the amount of its respective Invested Amount,
reduced (but not below zero) in the case of each Limited
Partner (whether under clause (i) or clause (ii)) by the sum
of (A) the total amount of all prior cash made to such
Limited Partner pursuant to Section 10.2(b), Clause Sixth
plus (B) the positive balance in the Capital Account of such
Limited Partner prior to the allocation made pursuant to
this Clause Fourth;
Fifth, profits in excess of the amounts allocated
under Clauses First, Second, Third and Fourth above shall be
allocated to each General Partner in the amount of its
respective paid-in Capital Contribution, reduced (but not

distributions previously made to it pursuant to Section
10.2(b), Clause Seventh to credit amounts distributed under
Clause Second of Section 10.2(b) against amounts
distributable under Clause Seventh of Section 10.2(b) (and
not including the amounts so credited) plus (ii) the
positive balance in such General Partner's respective
Capital Accounts prior to the allocations made pursuant to
this Clause Fifth; and
Sixth, profits in excess of the amounts allocated
under Clauses First, Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth above
shall be allocated to the Partners in the same percentages
as cash is distributed under Clause Ninth of Section 10.2(b)
to credit amounts distributed under Clause Second of Section
10.2(b) against amounts distributable under said Clause
Ninth (and not including the amounts so credited.)
As to losses:
First, an amount of losses shall be allocated to 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 99% for the Investment Limited Partner

Partners until the balance in each Partner's Capital Account

Partners to the extent of and in proportion to such
Partners' Capital Account balances (after the allocations
under Clauses First and Second above); and
Fourth, any remaining amount of losses after the
allocations under Clauses First, Second and Third above
shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with the
manner in which they bear the Economic Risk of Loss;
provided, however, that in the event that no Partner bears
an Economic Risk of Loss, then any remaining losses shall be
allocated 99% to the Investment Limited Partner and 1% to
the General Partners.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Sections 10.1(a)
and 10.1(b), in no event shall any losses be allocated to the Investment
Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner if an to the extent that
such allocation would cause, as of the end of the Partnership taxable
year, the negative balance in the Investment Limited Partner's Capital
Account to exceed such Partner's share of Partnership Minimum Gain plus
such Partner's share, if any of Partner Non-Recourse Debt Minimum Gain.
Any losses which are not allocated to a Partner by virtue of the
application of this Section 10.1(c) shall be allocated to the General
Partners. For the purposes of this Section 10.1(c), a Partner's Capital
Account shall be treated as reduced by Qualified Income Offset Items.
10.2 Cash Distributions Prior to Dissolution
(a) Cash Flow
Subject to Agency and Lender approval (if required), Cash Flow
for each fiscal year or portion thereof of the Partnership shall be
applied as follows:
First, to the payment of the Asset Management Fee for such year
and for any previous year(s) as to which the Asset Management Fee shall
not yet have been paid in full;
Second, to the repayment of any Subordinated Loans;
Third, to the payment of the Annual Partnership Management Fee
attributable to such year; and
Fourth, the balance thereof, if any, shall be distributed
annually, within seventy-five (75) days after the end of the fiscal
year, 20% to the Investment Limited Partner and 80% to the General
Partners; provided, however, that during such time as Agency regulations
are applicable to the Partnership Property, the total amount of Cash
Flow which may be so distributed to the Partners in respect to any
fiscal year shall not exceed such amounts as Agency regulations permit
to be distributed.
(b) Distributions of other than Cash Flow
Prior to dissolution, if the General Partners shall determine from
time to time that cash is available for distribution from a Capital
Transaction, such cash 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 the Capital Transaction), excluding (i) debts
and liabilities of the Partnership to Partners or their Affiliates and
(ii) all unpaid fees owing to the General Partners or their Affiliates;
and to the establishment of any reserves which the General Partners and
the Auditors shall deem reasonably necessary for contingent, unmatured
or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership;
Second, to the payment of the Asset Management Fee for such year
and for any previous year as to which the Asset Management Fee has not
been paid in full ;
Third, to the payment to the Investment Limited Partner of the
full amount (including interest) of any Credit Recovery Loans;

Fifth, to the repayment of any then-unpaid debts and liabilities

including, but not limited to, accrued and unpaid Annual Partnership
Management Fee for the fiscal year of the Capital Transaction; provided,

Sixth, to the payment to each Limited Partner of an amount equal
to its Invested Amount, in each case minus any prior distributions made
to such Partner under this Clause Sixth, but never an amount less than
zero;
Seventh, to the repayment to the General Partners of their paid-in
Capital Contributions minus any prior distributions made to them under
this Clause Seventh and the General Partner Admisson Loan , but never an
amount less than zero;
Eighth, except in the case of a refinancing, to each Partner in an
amount equal to the positive balance in his/her/its capital account,
after distributions to each Partner under Clauses First through Seventh,
above ; and
Ninth, any balance 34.999% to the Investment Limited Partner and
.001% to the Special Limited Partner, and 65% to the General Partners.
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 taxable year, including adjustments to Capital Accounts
pursuant to Sections 10.1(b) and 10.3(b). In the event that a General
Partner or Additional Limited 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 taxable 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 taxable year (or, if later,
within 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 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), "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 Section 7701(g) of the
Code), and the Partnership's adjusted basis for such assets as
determined under Regulation Section 1.704-1(b). 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 Investment
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 Non-Recourse Debt (including, without limitation,
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 taxable 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 Partners in the case of extraordinary
events); and second, the balance of such deductions shall be
allocated as provided in Section 10.1(a).
(ii) If any profit arises 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
Partnership Property 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 respect to any
asset which has a variation between its basis computed in
accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b) 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 Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(g).
(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 1.704-1(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) If there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain
during a Partnership taxable year, each Partner will be allocated
items of income and gain for such year (and, if
necessary, subsequent years) in proportion to, and to the extent
of, an amount equal to such Partner's share of the net decrease
in Partnership Minimum Gain during the year, before any other
allocation of Partnership items for such taxable year. A Partner
shall not be subject to this mandatory allocation of income or
gain to the extent that any of the exceptions provided in treasury
Regulation Section 1.704-2(f)(2)-(5) applies. All allocations
pursuant to this Section 10.4(b)(iv) shall be in accordance with
Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f). This provision is a
"minimum chargeback" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be construed as such.
(vii) If there is a net decrease in Partner Non-Recourse
Debt Minimum Gain during a Partnership taxable year, then each
Partner with a share of the minimum gain attributable to such debt
at the beginning of such year will be allocated items of income
and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an
amount equal to the greater of (a) the portion of such Partner's
share of the net decrease in Partner Non-Recourse Debt Minimum
Gain. A Partner is not subject to this Partner Non-Recourse Debt
Minimum Gain chargeback to the extent that any of the exceptions
provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) applied
consistently with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f)(2)-(5)
applies. Such allocations shall be made in a manner consistent
with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-
(2)(i)(4) under Section 704 of the Code.
(viii) If a Limited Partner unexpectedly receives (a) an
allocation of loss or deduction or expenditures described in
Section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code made (1) pursuant to Section
704(e)(2) of the Code to a donee of an Interest, (2) pursuant to
Section 706(d) of the Code as the result of a change in any
Partner's Interest, or (3) pursuant to Regulation Section
1.751-1(b)(2)(ii) as a result of a distribution by the Partner
ship of unrealized receivables or inventory items or (b) a
distribution, and such allocation and/or distribution would cause
the negative balance in such Partner's Capital Account to exceed
(i) such Partner's share of Partnership Minimum Gain plus (ii) the
amount of such Partner's obligation, if any, to restore a negative
balance in such Partner's Capital Account, then such Partner shall
be allocated items of income and gain in an amount and manner
sufficient to eliminate such negative balance as quickly as
possible. For purposes of this Section 10.4(b)(viii), a Partner's
Capital Account shall be treated as reduced by Qualified Income
Offset Items.
(ix) In the event that any fee payable to the 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.
(x) 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 Section 10.2(a).
(3) Capital Accounts shall be reduced by
distributions from Capital Transactions under Section
10.2(b).
(4) Capital Accounts shall be increased by any
minimum gain chargeback under Section 10.4(b)(vi) or Section
10.4(b)(vii).
(5) Capital Accounts shall be increased by any
qualified income offset under Section 10.4(b)(viii).
(6) Capital Accounts shall be increased by
allocations of profits under Section 10.1(a).
(7) Capital Accounts shall be reduced by allocations
of 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).
(xi) To the maximum extent permitted under the Code,
allocations of profits and losses shall be modified so that the
Partners' Capital Accounts reflect the amounts they would have
reflected if adjustments required by Sections 10.4(b)(vi),
10.4(b)(vii) and 10.4(b)(viii) had not occurred.
10.5 Authority of the General Partners 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 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. In order to
preserve and protect the determinations and allocations provided for in
this Agreement, the General Partners are hereby authorized and directed
to allocate profits, tax-exempt income, losses, nondeductible
non-capitalizable expenditures and credits (and items thereof) arising
in any 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, tax-exempt income, losses, non-deductible non-capitalizable
expenditures, or credits (or any item thereof) not to be permitted by
Section 704(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated
thereunder. 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 Sec tion
10.5(a), the General Partners are authorized to act only after having
been advised in writing by the Tax Accountants that, under Section
704(b) of the Code, (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 year or in any preceding year, each Partner's
distributive share of profits, tax-exempt income, losses, non-deductible
non-capitalizable expenditures, and 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.
(c) If the General Partners are 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
Partners are 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, to allocate profits, tax-exempt income,
losses, non-deductible 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, non-deductible
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 Partners 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 Partners 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.
ARTICLE XI
Management Agent
A. The General Partner shall engage the Management Agent to manage
the Partnership Property 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 Agent for
management services in accordance with a management contract approved by
the Agency (if such approval is required) or, when the Partnership
Property is not subject to Agency regulation, in accordance with a
reasonable and competitive fee arrangement. From and after the
Admission Date, the Partnership shall not enter into any Management
Agreement or modify or extend any Management Agreement unless the
General Partners shall have obtained the prior written 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.
B. Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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 Partnership Property is located and which could reasonably be
available to the Partnership, or (ii) five percent (5%) of the gross
revenues of the Partnership Property. No duplicate property management
fees shall be paid to any Person.
C. If (i) the Management Agent is the General Partner or an
Affiliate of the General Partner, and (a) the Partnership Property shall
be subject to a substantial building code violation which shall not have
been cured within six months after notice from the applicable
governmental agency or department or (b) the Partnership shall not have
Cash Flow of at least $10,000 each during year after 1998, or (ii) an
Event of Bankruptcy shall occur with respect to the Management Agent, or
(iii) the Management Agent shall commit willful misconduct or gross
negligence in its conduct of its duties and obligations under the
Management Agreement, then upon request by the Special Limited Partner
and subject to Agency approval, if required, the General Partners must
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.C. Subject to Agency
approval, if required, 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.
D. The General Partners shall have the duty to manage the
Partnership Property during any period when there is no Management
Agent.
ARTICLE XII

The Partnership shall maintain all books and records which are
required under the Uniform Act under the Code for the Tax Credit, or by
any governmental agency having jurisdiction and may maintain such other
books and records as the General Partners in their discretion deem
advisable. Every Limited Partner, or its duly authorized repre-
sentatives, shall at all times have access to the records of the
Partnership at the principal office of the Partnership at any reasonable
times, and may inspect and copy any of such records. A list of the
names 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

may be charged by the Partnership.
12.2 Bank Accounts
The bank accounts of the Partnership shall be maintained in the
Partnership's name with such financial institutions as the General

deposits and other funds required to be escrowed by any Lender ) and
other funds not needed in the operation of the business shall be

applicable Agency or Mortgage requirements, in interest-bearing
accounts or invested in United States Government obligations maturing
within one year.

Partners, all tax returns of the Partnership. Prior to the filing of
the Partnership tax returns, and in no event later than February 7 of
each year, the Auditors shall deliver the tax returns for such 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 year, then the Tax
Accountants shall make the final decision on whether any changes are
necessary. The Partnership shall reimburse BCCLP for all reasonable
costs and expenses paid to the Tax Accountants for the aforementioned
services.
(b) The Auditors shall audit and certify all annual financial
reports to the Partners in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.
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 Partners 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.
12.5 Special Basis Adjustments
In the event of a transfer of all or any part of the Interest of
the Investment Limited Partner or a transfer of all or any part of an
interest of a partner and/or holders of beneficial assignee certificates
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 beneficial assignee certificate thereof. Each Partner will furnish
the Partnership all information necessary to give effect to such
election.
12.6 Fiscal Year

the Admission Date the following items:
(i) An unaudited statement of income of the Partnership for
the year (or such shorter period as there may be from the date of
the most recent audited statement of income of the Partnership)
ended on the date upon which the Investment Limited Partner

(ii) An audited statement of income of the Partnership for
any fiscal year of the Partnership ending between (A) the earlier

Partner acquired its Interest in the Partnership.
(j) Within thirty (30) days of the Completion Date, the General
partners shall furnish the Investment Limited Partner with a Credit

Section 12.7(a)(ii) within the time periods set forth therein, the
General Partners may be required by the Investment Limited Partner to
pay as damages the sum of $250 per day (plus interest at a rate equal to
the general base rate of interest established by The First National Bank
of Boston or its successors and assigns and announced by it as the rate
charged by it to its prime commercial customers on short-term unsecured
borrowings as its "base rate" from time to time in effect plus 3%) to
the Investment Limited Partner until such obligations shall have been
fulfilled; provided, however, that said penalty shall not be applied
should the failure to provide such reports and information be beyond the
control of the General Partner. Such damages shall be paid forthwith by
the General Partners, and failure to so pay shall constitute a material
default of the General Partners hereunder. In addition, if the General
Partners shall so fail to pay, the General Partners and their Affiliates
shall forthwith cease to be entitled to the Annual Partnership
Management Fee, and to the payment of any Cash Flow or Capital
Transaction proceeds to which they may otherwise be entitled hereunder.
Such payments of the Annual Partnership Management Fee, Cash Flow and
Capital Transaction proceeds shall be restored only upon the payment of
such damages in full, and any amount of such damages not so paid shall
be deducted against payments of the Annual Partnership Management Fee,
Cash Flow and Capital Transaction proceeds otherwise due to the General
Partners or their affiliates.
12.8 Expenses of the Partnership
(a) All expenses of the Partnership shall be billed directly to
and paid by the Partnership.
(b) Except in extraordinary circumstances, neither the Investment
General Partner nor any Affiliate thereof shall be permitted to contract
or otherwise deal with the Partnership for the sale of goods or services
or the lending of money to the Partnership or the General Partners,
except for (i) management services, subject to the restrictions set
forth in Article XI.B., (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 or in the Prospectus. 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 extraordinary circumstances arise, the Investment
General Partner and its Affiliates may provide construction services in
connection with the Partnership Property. 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 Investment Limited Partner, actually
furnished to the Investment Limited Partner, and provided at the lower
of ten percent (10%) of the construction contract rate with respect to
the Partnership Property 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 spent 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 or in the Prospectus.
ARTICLE XIII
General Provisions
13.1 Restrictions by Reason of Section 708 of the Code
No Disposition 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 consecutive months prior to the proposed date of
the Disposition, could, in the opinion of 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 Certificate
Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of any
Partnership fiscal year in which the Investment Limited Partner shall
have received any distributions under Article X, the General Partners
shall file an amendment to the Certificate reducing by the amount of its
allocable share of such distribution the amount of Capital Contribution
of the Investment Limited Partner as stated in the last previous
amendment to the Certificate if such Amendment is required under the
Uniform Act to reduce any liability of the Investment Limited Partner to
partnership creditors. 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 Substituted Limited
Partners, although the General Partners may elect to do so more
frequently. In the case of assignments, where the assignee does not
become a Substituted 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 docu mentation
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 Partners
if the Certificate is not required to and does not identify the Limited
Partners or their Capital Contributions in such capacity.
13.3 Notices
Any notice called for under this Agreement shall be in writing and
shall be deemed adequately given if actually delivered or if sent by
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the party for whom
such notice is intended at such party's last address of record on the
Partnership books.

the provisions of this Agreement shall be subject to, and the General
Partners covenant to act in accordance with, the Project Documents; (b)
the Project Documents shall govern the rights and obligations of the
Partners, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns
to the extent expressly provided therein; (c) upon any dissolution of

Documents in a manner satisfactory to the Lender or any Agency ; (d) no
amendment to any provision of the Project Documents shall become
effective without the prior written consent of the Lender or any Agency
(if required); and (e) the affairs of the Partnership shall be subject
to Agency regulation and no action shall be taken which would require
the consent or approval of any Agency unless the same is first
obtained. No new Partner shall be admitted to the Partnership, and no
Partner shall withdraw from the Partnership or be substituted for
without the consent of the Lender or any Agency (if such consent is then
required). No amendment to this Agreement relating to matters governed
by Agency regulations or requirements shall become effective until the
prior written consent of the Agency (if required) to such amendment
shall have been obtained.
Any conveyance or transfer of title to all or any portion of the
Partnership Property required or permitted under this Agreement shall in
all respects be subject to all conditions, approvals and other
requirements of FmHA rules and regulations applicable thereto.
13.9 Separability of Provisions
Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered 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 to be bound by the

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

The Investment Limited Partner shall be deemed to have been
