 schedules reflecting allocations of profits or losses (and items thereof) to members of our company, that is, to the shareholders. In addition, to meet the terms of certain recordkeeping requirements under the Code, our company must annually obtain from each shareholder the names and addresses of any and all ultimate beneficial owners of our company shares and, to the extent a shareholder is not, in whole or in part, the ultimate beneficial owner, such ultimate beneficial owner’s direct or indirect fractional ownership share in our company, and the amount of any distribution(s) received by such ultimate beneficial owner by reason of his, her or its direct or indirect fractional ownership share in our company.

Tax Treatment of Company Income to Holders

Each partner of a partnership is required to report on his, her or its income tax return his, her or its share of items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the partnership without regard to whether cash distributions are received.

Each item of company income, gain, loss, deduction or credit will generally have the same character (e.g., capital or ordinary) as it would if the holder had recognized the item directly. Thus, holders of our shares may be required to report taxable income without a corresponding current receipt of cash if our company were to recognize taxable income and not make cash distributions to the shareholders.

In general, under the operating agreement, items of ordinary income and loss will be allocated among the holders of our shares and our manager on the basis of their relative rights to receive distributions from our company. If the IRS were to prevail in challenging the allocations provided by the operating agreement, the amount of income or loss allocated to
