withheld in the sole discretion of the General Partner.
5. The phrase "and upon no less than fifteen (15) days prior
written notice to the Limited Partners," contained in the fifth and sixth lines

6. Except as specifically set forth herein, the Initial Partnership
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
