requirements of Section 5.3 hereof), in excess of their contributions to the
capital of the Company, and any such loans shall not be treated as a
contribution to the capital of the Company for any purposes hereunder, nor shall

obligation of the Company to such Member and shall bear interest at a rate
agreed to by California I. Any such loan shall be repaid prior to any
distributions being made to the Members pursuant to Sections 4.8.2 and 9.3
hereof.
4.5 Capital Accounts. A separate Capital Account shall be
determined and maintained for each Member in accordance with the rules of Treas.
Reg. Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). Except as otherwise provided in Treas. Reg.

and 4.16. In the event that the Company, in conformity with the above Treasury

less than its adjusted tax basis, the Members' Capital Accounts shall be
adjusted to reflect only allocations to them of depreciation, amortization and
gain or loss as computed for book purposes (and not for tax purposes) with
respect to such property. In such event, items of book depreciation,
amortization and gain or loss shall be calculated in conformity with the rules
of Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g). For purposes of calculating a
Member's Capital Account, the following adjustments shall be included as Profits
and Losses:
(a) any and all adjustments made to Capital Accounts
pursuant to Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) (optional
revaluation of Capital Accounts), as it may be amended or supplemented
from time to time;
(b) any and all adjustments made to Capital Accounts
pursuant to Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) (adjustment
resulting from property distribution), as it may be amended or
supplemented from time to time; and

pursuant to Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) (as it may be
amended or supplemented from time to time), as it relates to
distributions other than in liquidation of a Member's Interest in the
Company.
4.6 Allocation of Income and Losses.
All items of Profits and losses incurred by the Company shall
be allocated to the Members in accordance with their relative Share Interests.
5
4.7 Principles of Allocation. It is the intention of the Members
that the allocations of Profits and Losses hereunder have substantial economic
effect in accordance with the tests therefor set forth in the Treasury
Regulations under Section 704(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly,
allocations not specifically provided for in this Limited Liability Company
Agreement shall be made in such a manner as shall conform to the allocation
rules and principles as set forth in such Treasury Regulations as in effect from
time to time, and the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be maintained in
accordance with the provisions hereof construed and interpreted in the light of
such Treasury Regulations.
4.8 Distributions.
4.8.1 Available Cash shall be distributed periodically, as
determined by California I in its sole discretion, to the Members in accordance
with their relative Share Interests.
4.8.2 Net Proceeds from an Extraordinary Event which are
not reinvested in other real property shall, to the extent determined by
California I as being available for, distribution, be distributed as
expeditiously as possible, in the following order of priority:
(a) first, to the payment of any unpaid principal and
interest on any third-party financing then due;
(b) next, to the prepayment of any unpaid principal and
interest on any third-party financing, if and to the extent determined
by California I;
(c) next, to the repayment of any loans made by the
Members to the Company pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof, in proportion to
the total amount of principal and interest payable to each such Member,
such distributions being treated first as in payment of accrued
interest on such loans and next as in payment of principal of such
loans;
(d) next, to the Members in proportion to their positive
capital account balances until such Capital Account balances have been
reduced to zero; and
(e) the balance, if any, in accordance with the Members'
relative Share Interests.
4.8.3 Distributions in connection with the sale of all or
substantially all of the Company's property and/or the dissolution and winding
up of the Company shall be made in accordance with Section 9.3 of this Limited
Liability Company Agreement
4.9 Allocations of Certain Tax Items. If the fair market value of
any Company property differs from its adjusted basis as of the day it is
contributed to the Company, then items of income, gain, loss, deductions and
credit related to such property for tax purposes shall be allocated between the
Members so as to take into account the variation between the adjusted basis of
the property for tax purposes and its fair market value in the manner provided
for under Code Section 704(c). Except as may be otherwise required by Code
Section 704(c), depreciation, amortization and gain or loss, as computed for tax
purposes with respect to Company property which has a book value greater or less
than its adjusted tax basis, shall be allocated among the
6
Members in a manner that takes into account the variation between the adjusted
tax basis and the book value of such property, in the same manner as variations
between the adjusted tax basis and fair market value of property contributed to
the Company are taken into account in determining the Members' share of tax
items under Code Section 704(c), as required by Treas. Reg. Section
1.704-1(b)(2) (iv)(f)(4) and Treas. Reg. Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i). In complying
with the requirements of Code Section 704(c), California I is authorized to
utilize any method permitted by the Treasury Regulations under Code Section
704(c). Allocations pursuant to this Section 4.9 are solely for purposes of
complying with federal, state and local tax requirements, and shall not affect,
or in any way be taken into account, in computing any Member's share of income,
gain, loss, deduction or credit.
4.10 Minimum Gain Chargeback. Nonrecourse deductions shall be
allocated to Members in accordance with their relative Share Interests.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV, if there is a net
decrease in partnership minimum gain (as such term is defined in Treas. Reg.
Section 1.704-2(f)) during any Company fiscal year, a Member shall be specially
allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary,
subsequent years) in an amount equal to its share of the net decrease in the
minimum gain. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance
with Section 1.704-2(f) of the Treasury Regulations. This Section 4.10 is
intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in such Section
of the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
4.11 Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Any partner nonrecourse
deductions for any fiscal year or other period shall be allocated to the Member
who bears the risk of loss with respect to the loan to which such partner
nonrecourse deduction is attributable in accordance with Regulations Section
1.704-2(i), if such sections of the Regulations become applicable to the
Company. Partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain shall be charged back to the
Members in accordance with Regulations Section l.704-2(i)(4).
4.12 Qualified Income Offset. In the event a Member unexpectedly
receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Sections
1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or l.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6) of
the Treasury Regulations, items of Company income and gain shall be specially
allocated to each such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate,
to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, the adjusted capital account
deficit (as such term is used in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Treasury Regulations)
of the Member as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to
this Section 4.12 shall be made only if and to the extent that the Member would
have an adjusted capital account deficit after all other allocations provided
for in this Article IV have been tentatively made as if this Section 4.12 were
not in this Limited Liability Company Agreement. This Section 4.12 is intended
to constitute a "qualified income offset" within the meaning of Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(3) of the Treasury Regulations, and is to be interpreted,
to the extent possible, to comply with the requirements of such Treasury
Regulation as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time.
4.13 Loss Limitation. The Losses allocated to the Members pursuant
to Section 4.7 hereof shall not exceed the maximum amount of Losses that can be
so allocated without causing the Member to have a deficit Capital Account at the
and of any Fiscal Year after: (a) increasing a Member's Capital Account by
amounts that it is obligated to restore pursuant to this Limited Liability
Company Agreement or is deemed obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate
7
sentences of Treas. Reg. Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), as they may
be amended or supplemented from time to time; and (b) decreasing the Member's
Capital Account by the items described in Treas. Reg. Sections
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(d)(5) and 1.704-l(b)(2)(d)(6), as it may
be amended or supplemented from time to time (an "Adjusted Deficit Capital
Account"). All Losses in excess of the limitations set forth in this Section
4.13 shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their relative Share
Interests.
4.14 Future Amendments: Revaluation of Company Property. The
Members, by a majority vote of the issued and outstanding Shares, will have
complete discretion to amend the provisions of this Limited Liability Company
Agreement if such amendment would not have a material adverse effect on the
Members and if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such amendment is
advisable for purposes of complying with Section 1.704-1 and 1.704-2 of the
Treasury Regulations (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time).
The Members, by a majority vote of the issued and outstanding Shares, may revise
the Members' Capital Accounts to reflect a revaluation of the Company property,
provided that the revaluation adheres to the requirements of Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) of the Treasury Regulations.
4.15 Gross Income Allocation. In the event a Member has a deficit
Capital Account at the end of any Company fiscal year which is in excess of the
sum of (i) the amount the Member is obligated to restore pursuant to any
provision of this Limited Liability Company Agreement, and (ii) the amount the
Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate
sentences of Treas. Reg. Sections 1.704-2(8)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), the Member
shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of
such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this
Section 4.15 shall be made only if and to the extent that the Member would have
a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations
provided for in this Article IV have been made, as if Article 4.12 hereof and
this Section 4.15 were not in this Limited Liability Company Agreement.
4.16 Curative Allocations. In the event that income, loss or items
thereof are allocated to one or more Members pursuant to Sections 4.10, 4.11,
4.12, 4.13, and 4.15, above, subsequent income and loss first will be allocated
(subject to the provisions of Sections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, and 4.15) to the
Members in a manner designed to result in each Member having a Capital Account
balance equal to what it would have been if the original allocation of income or
loss pursuant to Sections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, and 4.15 had not occurred.
