EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

3.1    Composition.  The Partnership shall have an executive committee of the Partnership (the “Executive Committee”) selected by the General Partner, the IPT Limited Partner and the BCIMC Limited Partner as provided herein.  At all times during the Term, the Executive Committee shall be comprised of three (3) members (each member, a “Representative”) consisting of: (a) one (1) Representative appointed by the General Partner; (b) one (1) Representative appointed by the IPT Limited Partner; and (c) one (1) Representative appointed by the BCIMC Limited Partner (acting collectively) (the “BCIMC Representative”).  As of the date hereof, the Representatives shall be: (i) Dwight Merriman, appointed by the General Partner; (ii) Tom McGonagle, appointed by the IPT Limited Partner; and (iii) either Timothy Works or Ryan Bradford, appointed by the BCIMC Limited Partner.  For purposes of clarity, the consent of either Timothy Works or Ryan Bradford with respect to any matter requiring the Approval of the Executive Committee hereunder shall be deemed to be the consent of the BCIMC Representative with respect to such matter and any Partner’s or Representative’s obligation to provide notice to or solicit the consent of the BCIMC Representative hereunder shall be deemed satisfied to the extent such Partner or Representative provides notice to or solicits the consent of either Timothy Works or Ryan Bradford.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Representative shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as it desires, including the Partners’ respective interests, and shall have no fiduciary duty or other duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of, or factors affecting, any other Person.  In the event of the resignation or death of a Representative, the Partner that so appointed such Representative shall designate a successor to such Representative within thirty (30) days after such resignation or death by written notice to all of the Partners.  Any Partner also shall have the right to replace its Representative by giving written notice of the removal of such Representative to all of the Partners, together with its appointment of a replacement therefor.  Representatives shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Partnership for their reasonable travel expenses and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their attendance at meetings of the Executive Committee (provided, however, that with respect to any particular meeting of the Executive Committee, the Partnership shall only be obligated to reimburse the expenses of the BCIMC Representative incurred by Timothy Works or Ryan Bradford (but not both) in connection with such meeting), but shall not be entitled to any fees, remuneration or other reimbursements from the Partnership or any of the Partners.  Each Representative shall be bound by Section 12.11 of this Agreement.  

3.2    Role of Executive Committee. Subject to Section 4.4(e), the unanimous consent of the Representatives constituting a quorum (the “Approval of the Executive Committee” or “Approval”, and any matter upon receiving the Approval of the Executive Committee, “Approved”) shall be required with respect to any Proposed Investment, all Major Decisions, as more specifically set forth in Section 6.2, and such other matters as are prescribed herein as requiring the Approval of the Executive Committee; provided, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, that the General Partner shall be entitled to take any action that the General Partner determines to be reasonably necessary to prevent imminent and material damage or to prevent impending health, life or safety emergencies without the Approval of the Executive Committee. Any Major Decision requiring the Approval of the Executive Committee that is proposed by any Representative but is not Approved or deemed Approved shall constitute a “Deadlock Event”. 

3.3    Meetings.  
(a)    General.  Any Executive Committee meetings held in person shall be held in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area except as otherwise Approved by the Executive Committee (either in advance of or at such meeting); provided, however, in the case of meetings held by telephone conference or similar means pursuant to Section 3.3(e), no Representative need be in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area.
(b)    Nature of Meetings.  The General Partner shall give notice to each Representative of each meeting, including the time, place and purpose of such meeting.

Such 


	
			
	 
	5
	 

	 















notice need not be given to any Representative who in fact attends such meeting.  A written waiver of notice delivered to the General Partner, whether before or after the time of the meeting stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice.  Any Limited Partner with representation on the Executive Committee shall also have the right to call a meeting of the Executive Committee to discuss a Major Decision, by giving notice of such meeting to each Representative in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.3 that apply to the General Partner.
(c)    Quorum.  Except as set forth below, at all meetings of the Executive Committee at which a Major Decision is to be considered, the presence of the BCIMC Representative and at least one (1) Representative appointed by either the General Partner or the IPT Limited Partner shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.  At any duly called meeting of the Executive Committee at which a Major Decision is to be considered, if a quorum shall not be present solely as a result of the failure of any Representative to attend or as a result of the failure of any Partner to appoint its Representative, after the death or resignation of its Representative, the Partner that called such meeting may call a second meeting to consider such matter on twenty-four (24) hours’ notice and if the Representative that was not present fails to attend such second meeting or is not appointed, such meeting may nevertheless take place and the Representative that was not present shall be deemed to have voted in favor of any such Major Decision proposed at such subsequently held meeting.
(d)    Action Without a Meeting.  Any action of the Executive Committee may be taken without a meeting of the Executive Committee, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing or by electronic transmission (including email confirmation or approval), setting forth the action to be so taken, shall be provided by all of the Representatives.  Any Representative shall be entitled to require the General Partner to circulate a written consent to the Executive Committee in lieu of meeting.  In the event the General Partner promptly delivers any written consent requested by any Representative in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence and such requesting Representative fails to return such written consent within the time periods prescribed for any such meeting as set forth above, such requesting Representative shall be deemed to have voted in favor of any such Major Decision described in such written consent.
(e)    Telephone Participation.  Any Representative may participate in any meeting of the Executive Committee by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all Persons participating in the meeting may talk with and hear one another.
(f)    Rules.  The Executive Committee may adopt by Approval such other rules of procedure governing its meetings, communications and actions as it deems necessary, appropriate or helpful.

If the Capital Call Notice is issued with respect to an Approved Investment, the total amount of equity to be contributed by the Partners will include the amount of acquisition costs and other costs pursuant to Section 6.4(c) incurred with respect to such Approved Investment.  By the date specified by the General Partner (or, to the extent permitted pursuant to this Section 4.3(d), the BCIMC Limited Partner) in the applicable Capital Call Notice, each Partner shall be required to fund its Capital Contributions with respect thereto as required by this Agreement.  If any transaction for which Capital Contributions are funded is terminated, then so long as, and to the extent that, the Partnership no longer is liable in connection therewith, such Capital Contributions shall be returned to the Partners within ten (10) Business Days following the effective date of such termination less any costs or expenses incurred in connection with such terminated transaction.  The General Partner shall hold each Partner’s Capital Contribution in trust until all Partners have made their respective capital contributions or a Partner is deemed to be a Defaulting Partner pursuant to Section 4.4.
(e)    Maximum Capital Commitments.  Unless the Executive Committee has Approved a Major Decision to the contrary, under no circumstances will any Partner be obligated to (i) make Capital Contributions which, when aggregated with all its prior Capital Contributions, exceeds the amount set forth as its “Capital Commitment” on Schedule 1 (with respect to each Partner, the “Capital Commitment”) or (ii) make Capital Contributions after the expiration of the Investment Period in respect of any Proposed Investment not Approved by the Executive Committee on or before the expiration of the Investment Period.

4.4    Treatment of Defaulting Partner.  
(a)    Default.  If any Partner fails to fund any Capital Contribution required hereunder, within the period set forth in the applicable Capital Call Notice, such Partner shall be considered a “Defaulting Partner.”  A Partner that has become a Defaulting Partner shall not be entitled to any additional period in which to cure the default and pay its required Capital Contribution.  The portion of such Capital Contribution that such Defaulting Partner was required to make and did not actually fund shall be referred to herein as the “Unfunded Amount.”
(b)    Remedies Generally.  If, and to the extent, a Defaulting Partner fails to fund any Capital Contribution required hereunder, each of the other Partners that has fully funded its required Capital Contribution that is not an Affiliate of the Defaulting Partner (each, a “Contributing Partner”), shall have the right, without obligation, either to:
(i)    Require the General Partner (or the BCIMC Limited Partner, in the case of a Limited Partner Capital Call) to (and the General Partner (or the BCIMC Limited Partner, in the case of a Limited Partner Capital Call) shall) revoke or revise the Capital Call Notice, whereupon any Capital Contributions paid by the Contributing Partner pursuant to such Capital Call Notice shall be returned to it within ten (10) Business Days following such Partner’s election to revoke or revise the Capital Call Notice and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as never having been made (and no default shall be deemed to have occurred), in which event the Executive Committee shall reconsider the needs of the Partnership for additional capital and the General Partner may issue a new Capital Call Notice following such reconsideration with the Approval of the Executive Committee.
(ii)    In addition to making its own Capital Contribution then due, fund the Unfunded Amount, or if there is more than one Contributing Partner who has elected to fund pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(ii), its pro rata share thereof based on Percentage Interests of all such Contributing Partners, on the terms set forth below in this Section 4.4(b)(ii). Any Unfunded Amount contributed to the Partnership by the Contributing Partner shall be deemed to be senior preferred equity (“Senior Preferred Equity Contributions”) and shall be entitled to an amount equal to a cumulative per annum return of twenty percent (20%), compounded annually to the extent not paid currently, on each dollar of a Contributing Partner’s Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, from the first day that such dollar is contributed to the Partnership pursuant to the terms of this Agreement until the date that such dollar of the Senior Preferred Equity Contribution is returned to that Contributing Partner pursuant to Section 5.2 (the “Senior Preferred Return”).  In the event a Contributing Partner elects to fund the Unfunded Amount pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(ii), such Contributing Partner shall notify the other Partners in writing upon such election.  A Defaulting Partner may cause the Partnership to repay the Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, together with any accrued Senior Preferred Return, at any time, by contributing such amounts to the Partnership and directing the General Partner to distribute such amounts to the Contributing Partner(s) in accordance with Section 5.2(a)(i) and Section 5.2(a)(ii).  
(iii)    In addition to the foregoing, make an additional Capital Contribution to the Partnership equal to the Unfunded Amount, or if there is more than one Contributing Partner who has elected to fund pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii), its pro rata share thereof based on Percentage Interests of all such Contributing Partners, whereupon (i) the Contributing Partner(s) shall be deemed to have made a Capital Contribution for all purposes hereunder (including in respect of Capital Accounts, Carried Interest Distributions and calculations under Section 5.3) in an amount equal to one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of the amount funded and (ii) the Percentage Interests of each Partner shall be recalculated at such time pursuant to Section 4.2 such that the dilution of the deemed Capital Contribution reduces only the Percentage Interest of the Defaulting Partner and increases only the Percentage Interest(s) of the Contributing Partner(s).  Further, in such event when any IPT Partner is the Defaulting Partner and to the extent such IPT Partner fails to cure the applicable default within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of written notice from the BCIMC Limited Partner, the BCIMC Limited Partner shall have the right to declare by written notice to the General Partner 


	
			
	 
	10
	 

	 















that each of the percentages set forth in Sections 5.2(a)(v)(y), 5.2(a)(v)(z), 5.2(a)(vi)(y) and 5.2(a)(vi)(z) shall be decreased to an amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to the product of (A) such percentage and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the IPT Partners’ aggregate Percentage Interests after adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii) and the denominator of which is the IPT Partners’ aggregate Percentage Interests prior to adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii), and following the adjustments pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(iii), each of the percentages set forth in Sections 5.2(a)(v)(x) and 5.2(a)(vi)(x) shall be increased by a corresponding amount so that the total of the percentages set forth in Sections 5.2(a)(v) and 5.2(a)(vi) is always one hundred percent (100%). 
For purposes of this Section 4.4(b), if more than one Contributing Partner elects to make a Senior Preferred Equity Contribution pursuant to clause (ii) above and/or to make an additional Capital Contribution pursuant to clause (iii) above, such Contributing Partners will fund their pro rata share, based on relative Percentage Interests, of such Senior Preferred Equity Contribution and/or Capital Contribution, as applicable, in an aggregate collective amount equal to the Unfunded Amount.  If only one Contributing Partner elects to make a Senior Preferred Equity Contribution or an additional Capital Contribution, the electing Contributing Partner shall fund the Senior Preferred Equity Contribution or Capital Contribution, as applicable, in the entire amount of the Unfunded Amount. 


(c)    Default Date and Default Period.  Subject to Section 4.4(b)(i), the day that a Partner becomes a Defaulting Partner shall be referred to herein as the “Default Date”.  If any of the Contributing Partners elect the remedy set forth in Section 4.4(b)(ii), the Defaulting Partner shall be deemed to have cured the default at such time as the Contributing Partner(s) (or its Affiliate, as applicable) actually receive full repayment of their Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, including any accrued Senior Preferred Return earned thereon (the “Cure Date” being the date on which the Contributing Partner receives full repayment of the Senior Preferred Equity Contributions, including any accrued Senior Preferred Return earned thereon, and the period from the Default Date until the Cure Date (if applicable), the “Default Period”).  In addition to the specific remedies set forth in this Section 4.4, the Contributing Partner(s) shall have all rights and remedies available at law and in equity arising from a Defaulting Partner’s failure to contribute its Unfunded Amount.
(d)    Termination of Rights.  The following rights of a Defaulting Partner under this Agreement shall terminate on the Default Date and shall only be reinstated on the Cure Date, if applicable:
(i)    With respect to any Defaulting Partner, (A) the right of first opportunity in connection with a Transfer by the Contributing Partner pursuant to Section 8.1(c), (B) the right to tag-along to a Transfer by the Contributing Partner pursuant to Section 8.1(d), (C) the right to deliver a Buy-Sell Notice pursuant to Section 9.1 and (D) the right to initiate a Forced Sale pursuant to Section 9.2; 
(ii)    If each of (x) any BCIMC Limited Partner and (y) the Sell-Down Transferee (if applicable) is a Defaulting Partner, the General Partner shall have no further obligation to present to the Partnership potential investments pursuant to Section 6.6; and
(iii)    If either IPT Partner is the Defaulting Partner and the General Partner is an Affiliate of the IPT Limited Partner, the General Partner may be removed for Cause pursuant to Section 7.4(a)(viii); provided, however, removal for such Cause shall be permitted only during the Default Period.
(e)    Exclusion from the Executive Committee.  During the Default Period for a Defaulting Partner, any Representative appointed by such Defaulting Partner, or by any other Partner that is an Affiliate of such Defaulting Partner, shall no longer be entitled to participate in any way in the affairs of the Executive Committee and shall not be counted toward a quorum.

4.5    Capital Accounts.  The Capital Contributions of each Partner shall be credited to such Partner’s “Capital Account.”  A Partner’s Capital Account also shall be credited with the amount of income and gain of the Partnership allocable to the Partner under Section 5.4 and Exhibit A attached hereto (including any income and gain exempt from tax), and shall be debited with (a) such Partner’s share of all Partnership distributions and (b) the amount of losses and deductions allocated to such Partner under Section 5.4 and Exhibit A attached hereto (including any 


	
			
	 
	11
	 

	 















income and gain exempt from tax).  Capital Accounts shall be maintained and adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Treasury Regulations and the more detailed rules set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.  A Partner shall be considered to have only one Capital Account.  Any permitted transferee (pursuant to the terms hereof) of all or any portion of an Interest shall succeed to the portion of the Capital Account relating to the Interest transferred.

4.6    No Interest on, or Right to Return of Capital Contributions or Capital Account.  No Partner shall be entitled to receive any interest on its Capital Contributions or its outstanding Capital Account balance.  Except upon the dissolution and termination of the Partnership to the extent provided herein, or as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, no Partner shall have the right to demand or to receive the return of all or any part of its Capital Contribution or its Capital Account.

4.7    Cash Contributions.  All Capital Contributions to the Partnership by the Partners shall be in cash denominated in U.S. dollars.

ARTICLE 5     
 
DISTRIBUTIONS AND ALLOCATIONS

5.4    Timing of Distributions.
(a)    Quarterly Distributions.  For purposes of Section 5.2, Cash Available for Distribution (other than proceeds from a sale, exchange or other disposition of assets or from a refinancing or other borrowing) shall be distributed at least quarterly within sixty (60) days after the end of each fiscal quarter.  Cash Available for Distribution also may be distributed at such other time or times as the General Partner may decide in anticipation of the quarterly-end determination thereof, and any such distributions shall be subject to quarterly-end adjustment based on the amount of Cash Available for Distribution ultimately determined to be available for distribution with respect to such quarter.
(b)    Sales Proceeds and Refinancing Proceeds.  For purposes of Section 5.2 and subject to Section 5.4(d), Cash Available for Distribution derived from a sale, exchange or other disposition of assets (including condemnation proceeds) or from a refinancing or other borrowing shall be distributed within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of such proceeds by the Partnership.
(c)    Sale of All or Substantially All Assets.  Cash Available for Distribution derived from the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership (or of all of the Investment Entities) will be distributed to the Partners as provided in Section 10.2(a).
(d)    Investment of Cash Available for Distribution.  Pending distribution, funds held by the Partnership that are required to be distributed pursuant to Section 5.2 may, in the General Partner’s discretion, be invested in cash (or cash equivalents), interest bearing accounts, money market funds or instruments or other liquid securities that are intended to provide for the preservation of capital.

5.5    Allocations.  All items of income, gain, deduction and loss of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit A attached hereto.

5.6    No Violations.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Partnership shall make no distribution that violates the Act.

5.7    Withholding.
(a)    Requirements.  The Partnership shall comply with withholding requirements under United States federal, state and local law and shall remit amounts withheld to, and file required forms with, the applicable jurisdictions.  To the extent the Partnership is required to withhold and pay over any amounts to any authority with respect to distributions or allocations to any Partner (including any taxes arising under Code §§6221 through 6241, as amended by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, together with any guidance issued thereunder or successor provisions and any similar provision of state or local tax laws (the “Partnership Tax Audit Rules”), the amount withheld shall be treated as a distribution to that Partner in the amount of the withholding.  In the event of any claimed over-withholding, Partners shall be limited to an action against the applicable jurisdiction, and not against the Partnership.  If the amount withheld or required to be withheld (including under the Partnership Tax Audit Rules) was not withheld from actual distributions, the Partnership may, at its option, (i) require the Partner to reimburse the Partnership for such withholding or (ii) reduce any subsequent distributions by the amount of such withholding.  Each Partner agrees to furnish the Partnership with any representations and forms as shall reasonably be requested by the Partnership to assist it in determining the extent of, and in fulfilling, its withholding obligations.  Each Partner will indemnify the General Partner and the Partnership against any losses and liabilities (including, without limitation, interest and penalties) related to any withholding obligations with respect to allocations or distributions made to it by the Partnership other than amounts resulting from the Partnership’s failure to timely pay over any amounts withheld or to timely file any returns.
(b)    Exemptions.  The Partnership will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize or eliminate any withholding tax imposed by any jurisdiction on any amounts distributable by the Partnership to the Partners, including under Sections 1471 and 1472 of the Code, to the extent permissible pursuant to applicable law.  The General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist each Partner to obtain any exemption, exclusion, credit or refund associated with the taxation (including, without limitation, withholding tax) of any amounts distributable to the Partner (“Exemption”) for which the Partnership or the Partner qualifies, in each case at such Partner’s expense.  In addition, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with and assist each Partner in obtaining available information for such Partner to make filings, applications or elections to obtain the Exemption at such Partner’s expense.  If, and to the extent, reasonably requested in writing by a Partner, and at the expense of the requesting Partner, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such filings, applications or elections to be prepared and filed on the Partner’s behalf with respect to Exemptions from withholding or other tax arising out of the Partner’s Interest.  The General Partner acknowledges that, absent a change in law or the administrative or judicial interpretation thereof, it does not intend to withhold taxes under Sections 1445 and 1446 of the Code with respect to BCIMC WCBAF’s share of any gains from the disposition of an Investment Entity on the basis that each Investment Entity qualifies as a “domestically controlled qualified investment entity” within the meaning of Section 897(h)(4) of the Code; provided that BCIMC WCBAF provides the Partnership with any necessary forms and all other documentation and representations reasonably requested by the General Partner to avoid such withholding and provided that the General Partner is not otherwise required to withhold such taxes by an applicable tax or other governmental authority.  In connection with the foregoing, BCIMC WCBAF represents and warrants that it holds less than 50% of the Interests.
(c)    Withholding Notices.  The Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) give reasonable notice prior to any withholding to any taxing authority on behalf of a Partner, and (ii) give such Partner the reasonable opportunity to provide such applicable forms, information returns or other documentation, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner in its reasonable discretion, to establish an exemption from withholding with respect to the Partner under the laws of the applicable taxing jurisdiction; provided, that such documentation shall be provided to the General Partner no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the date that withholding would otherwise be required.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Partnership from withholding on any distributions in respect of a Partner if the General Partner determines in its reasonable discretion that withholding is required under applicable law.
(d)    Tax Status of the BCIMC Limited Partner.  
(i)    Each of BCIMC College, BCIMC Municipal, BCIMC Public Service, BCIMC Teachers, BCIMC WCB and BCIMC Hydro will provide the General Partner with a duly-completed IRS Form W-8BEN-E certifying as to its eligibility for any available exemption from or reduction in withholding taxes, and will provide the General Partner with a signed affidavit in the form of Exhibit N hereto (the “QFPF Certification”).   
(ii)    BCIMC WCBAF has informed the General Partner that it is generally exempt from U.S. federal income tax on U.S. source dividends (other than capital gain dividends taxable under Section 897(h)(1) of the Code) and interest by reason of being a company, organization or other arrangement, described in either subsection 3(a) or subsection 3(b) of Article XXI (3) of the income tax treaty between the United States and Canada (the “Treaty”).
(iii)    BCIMC WCBAF will provide the General Partner with a duly-completed IRS Form W-8EXP and/or IRS Form W-8BEN-E certifying as to its eligibility for such exemption or reduced withholding, as the case may be.  
(iv)    Under existing law and assuming BCIMC WCBAF provides the IRS forms (and any applicable renewals, updates, or successors to such forms under applicable law) described in the preceding clause (iii) on a timely basis, the General Partner does not intend to withhold from any distribution to BCIMC WCBAF where such distribution is made in respect of BCIMC WCBAF’s distributive share of U.S. source dividends or interest, other than withholding required as a result of the application of Section 897(h)(1) of the Code to any such distributions.
(e)    For the avoidance of doubt, any taxes, penalties and interest payable under the Partnership Tax Audit Rules by the Partnership or any fiscally transparent entity in which the Partnership owns an interest shall be treated as specifically attributable to the Partners of the Partnership, and the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allocate the burden of (or any diminution in distributable proceeds resulting from) any such taxes, penalties or interest to those Partners to whom such amounts are specifically attributable (whether as a result of their status, actions, inactions or otherwise), as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion.

(iii)    engage in any kind of activity and perform and carry out contracts of any kind necessary to, or in connection with, or incidental to the accomplishment of, the purposes and objectives of the Partnership, as may be lawfully carried on or performed by a limited partnership under the laws of the State of Delaware, and in each state where the Partnership has been qualified to do business; and
(iv)    take such actions (including, without limitation, amending this Agreement) or decline to take such actions as the General Partner determines in its sole discretion are advisable or necessary, based upon advice of counsel to the Partnership, (A) to preserve the tax status of the Partnership as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes or (B) to conform this Agreement to either (I) the Act, or (II) provisions of the Code or the Treasury Regulations relating to taxation of partners and partnerships and real estate investment trusts, including, without limitation, any changes thereto.

Except to the extent provided in this Agreement, neither the Limited Partners nor the Special Limited Partner shall participate in or have any control whatsoever over the Partnership’s business or have any authority or right to act for or bind the Partnership.  The authority to conduct the business of the Partnership shall be exercised only by the General Partner.  Each Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner hereby consents to the exercise by the General Partner of the powers conferred on it by this Agreement, subject to the restrictions and limitations set forth in this Agreement or the Act.
(c)    Reliance Upon Certificate.  Any Person dealing with the Partnership or the General Partner may rely upon a certificate signed on behalf of the General Partner, thereunto duly authorized, as to:
(i)    the identity of the General Partner, the Limited Partners, or the Special Limited Partner;
(ii)    the existence or non-existence of any fact or facts which constitute a condition precedent to the acts by the General Partner or in any other manner germane to the affairs of the Partnership;
(iii)    the Persons who are authorized to execute and deliver any instrument or document of the Partnership; and
(iv)    any act or failure to act by the Partnership or as to any other matter whatsoever involving the Partnership or any Partner.

The standard of Due Care shall apply to all duties, obligations, liabilities, powers and authority of the General Partner.

The General Partner shall provide any additional information reasonably requested by any Representative in connection with the budget review process promptly following such request and the Executive Committee shall have reasonable access during normal business hours of the General Partner to the General Partner’s management personnel to obtain and discuss such information.  No less than fifteen (15) Business Days after delivery of the draft annual budget described above (or such other date Approved by the Executive Committee), the General Partner shall call a meeting of the Executive Committee for the purpose of considering and approving such draft annual budget (the “Initial Budget Approval”).  Within ten (10) Business Days after the Initial Budget Approval, the General Partner shall prepare and submit to the Executive Committee, for its consideration and approval as a Major Decision pursuant to Section 6.2(c), a full Partnership budget by adding the initial budget approval partnership level expenses such as general and administrative expenses and GP Fees and shall set a date for a meeting of the Executive Committee for the purpose of considering and approving such draft annual budget, with the objective of finalizing the Approved Partnership Budget no later than December 31.  The General Partner shall consider in good faith, but without any obligation to make, any suggested changes and adjustments to the draft annual budget proposed by any Representative (other than changes that are inconsistent with the manner in which GP Fees are computed in accordance with Exhibit D), and if any changes are made by the General Partner to the draft annual budget prior to its approval, the General Partner shall submit a revised annual budget to the Executive Committee for its consideration and approval as a Major Decision pursuant to Section 6.2(c), together with any new, additional or updated Supporting Materials (not previously provided) that are reasonably necessary for the Executive Committee to make an informed decision about the revised draft annual budget.  If the Executive Committee rejects the draft annual budget for any calendar year that is submitted to it for approval as a Major Decision pursuant to Section 6.2(c), then not later than fifteen (15) Business Days after such rejection, the General Partner shall prepare and submit to the Executive Committee, for its consideration and approval as a Major Decision pursuant to Section 6.2(c), either the same or a revised draft of the annual budget for such year, incorporating any such changes the General Partner elects to make based upon its good faith consideration of any feedback and comments provided on the prior draft annual budget by a Representative to the General Partner (other than changes that are inconsistent with the manner in which GP Fees are computed in accordance with Exhibit D).  Upon the Approval of the full draft budget by the Executive Committee pursuant to Section 6.2(c), such budget shall become the Approved Partnership Budget for all purposes under this Agreement and shall supersede any prior Approved Partnership Budget; provided, however, if the Representatives are unable to agree on an annual budget, the prior year’s Approved Partnership Budget shall continue in effect (save and except in respect of non-recurring line items), adjusted by uncontrollable costs (such as, insurance, taxes and utilities), inflation and the requirements of tenant leases entered into by the Investment Entities.  The failure of the Executive Committee to Approve two (2) consecutive annual budgets within the time periods set forth in this Section 6.3(b)(i) shall be deemed to be a Deadlock Event.
(ii)    The General Partner shall be authorized to make the expenditures and incur the obligations set forth in, and otherwise implement, the then Approved Partnership Budget.  
(c)    Filings.  The General Partner shall take such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to form or qualify the Partnership under the laws of any jurisdiction in which the Partnership is doing business or owns property or in which such formation or qualification is necessary in order to protect the limited liability of each Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner or in order to continue in effect such formation or qualification.  If required by law, the General Partner shall file or cause to be filed for recordation in the office of the appropriate authorities of the State of Delaware, and in the proper office or offices in each other jurisdiction in which the Partnership is formed or qualified, such certificates (including, without limitation, limited partnership and fictitious name certificates) and other documents as are required by the applicable statutes, rules or regulations of any such jurisdiction or as are necessary to reflect the identity of the Partners and the amounts of their respective Capital Contributions.
(d)    Partnership Tax Returns.  The General Partner shall prepare or cause to be prepared and shall file on or before the due date (including any extensions thereof) any Federal, state or local tax returns required to be filed by the Partnership. 
(e)    Appraisals.  
(i)    The General Partner shall cause a nationally recognized MAI appraiser with experience in appraising the value of real estate having a similar character to and in a similar geographic location as the Investments (a “Qualified Appraiser”) to value (A) each Development Investment and Value-Add Investment within the calendar year following the date of Stabilization of each such Development Investment and Value-Add Investment and annually thereafter and (B) each Core Investment within the calendar year following the date of the acquisition of each such Core Investment and annually thereafter, in each case at the expense of the Partnership.  The General Partner shall direct the appointed Qualified Appraiser to finalize each such appraisal no later than two (2) weeks prior to the end of the calendar year in which such appraisal is being conducted (the “Appraisal Date), and to reflect an effective date of such valuation as of December 31 of such calendar year; provided, that the General Partner shall have no liability with respect to the failure of such Qualified Appraiser to finalize any such appraisal by the Appraisal Date.  The General Partner shall deliver to the BCIMC Limited Partner any appraisal commissioned pursuant to this Section 6.3(e)(i) upon the written request of the BCIMC Limited Partner.
(ii)    In addition, no more than 180 days prior to the Calculation Date, the General Partner shall value the entire Portfolio (the “Portfolio Appraisal”) by either (A) aggregating the values of the last annual appraisals commissioned pursuant to Section 6.3(e)(i) or (B) commissioning a Qualified Appraiser  to value the entire Portfolio (by aggregating the value of each Investment) and, in either case, subject to clause (iii) below, such Portfolio Appraisal shall be binding on the Partnership and the Partners absent manifest error or fraud.  The Portfolio Appraisal performed pursuant to this Section 6.3(e)(ii) shall be deemed to have been performed by the “GP Appraiser”.  The Portfolio Appraisal shall be used to determine the Appraised Value of the Portfolio (including, without limitation, the Carried Interest Distributions) in accordance with Section 5.3.
(iii)    Within ten (10) Business Days following the receipt of the Portfolio Appraisal, the BCIMC Limited Partner shall provide written notice (the “Appraisal Notice”) to the General Partner electing to (x) agree to the Portfolio Appraisal or (y) reject the Portfolio Appraisal.  In the event the BCIMC Limited Partner rejects the Portfolio Appraisal, the BCIMC Limited Partner shall select, approve and appoint a Qualified Appraiser to value the entire Portfolio (by aggregating the value of each Investment) as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed Portfolio Appraisal (the “LP Appraiser”) within five (5) Business Days following the General Partner’s receipt of the Appraisal Notice (the “LP Appraiser Appointment Period”) by providing notice to the General Partner of such appointment (the “LP Appraiser Notice”).  If the BCIMC Limited Partner fails to appoint the LP Appraiser within the LP Appraiser Appointment Period, the Portfolio Appraisal shall be conclusive on the Partners.  If both the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser are appointed, then the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser shall thereafter appoint a third (3rd) Qualified Appraiser (the “Independent Appraiser” and, together with the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser, collectively, the “Appraisers”) and give notice thereof to the Partners within ten (10) days following the General Partner’s receipt of the LP Appraiser Notice (the “Independent Appraiser Appointment Period”).  If the GP Appraiser and the LP Appraiser fail to appoint the Independent Appraiser within the Independent Appraiser Appointment Period, any Partner (other than the Special Limited Partner) may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint the Independent Appraiser.
(iv)    Each of the Appraisers shall promptly fix a time for the completion of the Portfolio Appraisal, which shall not be later than thirty (30) days from the appointment of the Independent Appraiser.  The Appraisers shall determine the Portfolio Value as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed Portfolio Appraisal by determining the fair market value of the assets to be appraised (other than cash in Partnership accounts), such being the fairest price estimated in the terms of money which the Partnership could obtain if such assets were sold, for all cash, in the open market allowing a reasonable time to find a purchaser who purchases such assets with knowledge of the business of the Partnership and such assets.  If the Appraisers are not able to agree upon a single Portfolio Value as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed Portfolio Appraisal, each shall render its own Portfolio Value as of the effective date of the General Partner’s proposed Portfolio Appraisal.  Upon submission of the appraisals setting forth the opinions as to the Portfolio Value, if the highest value submitted by the Appraisers is not more than 105% of the lowest value submitted by the Appraisers, then the average of the values proposed by the Appraisers shall constitute the “Portfolio Value”; provided, that if the highest value submitted by the Appraisers is more than 105% of the lowest value submitted by the Appraisers, then the average of the two appraisals closest in value shall constitute the “Portfolio Value”.
(v)    If the GP Appraiser, the LP Appraiser and the Independent Appraiser are appointed, the General Partner shall pay for the services of the GP Appraiser, the BCIMC Limited Partner and/or the Sell-Down Transferee (if applicable) shall pay for the services of the LP Appraiser and the cost of the services of the Independent Appraiser shall be paid by the Partners pro rata in accordance with their Percentage Interests.  The costs of the services of the Partnership’s accountants, if applicable, shall be paid by the Partnership.
(vi)    As used herein, “Appraised Value” of an asset or assets means, as the context so provides, the value of such asset(s) as determined by appraisal.  For any Investment which has been acquired by the Partnership but has not yet been appraised by a Qualified Appraiser, the acquisition and development cost paid by the Partnership for the Partnership’s interest in such Investment shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to be its value established pursuant to this Section 6.3(e) until such time as such Investment is appraised in accordance with this Section 6.3.
(f)    Limitations on Liability of General Partner.  The General Partner shall have no liability hereunder, and shall not be in breach of its obligations hereunder, if the General Partner is unable to take any action or perform any duty which would otherwise be required hereunder to the extent that (i) such inability to act was caused by the action or failure to act of the Limited Partners that are not Affiliates of the General Partner, (ii) such inability to act resulted from a lack of available funds (provided the General Partner has issued Capital Call Notices for such funds in accordance with Article 4), (iii) such action or omission would have been reasonably expected to violate any law, or (iv) such action or omission was based on the advice of reputable counsel or other consultant with knowledge of such matter selected by the General Partner with Due Care.

6.4    Fees; Expenses.
(a)    Fees.  The Partnership shall pay to the General Partner the fees (the “GP Fees”) as compensation for providing services in managing the activities of the Partnership specifically enumerated in Section 6.3(a) (or where applicable providing such services to the Investment Entities) pursuant to and as and when set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto; provided, however, the General Partner may direct the Partnership to pay directly any of such GP Fees directly to any Unrelated Third Party (including the Special Limited Partner) or Affiliate. 
(b)    General Partner Expenses.  Subject to Section 6.4(c), the General Partner shall be responsible for all the overhead expenses of performing the duties as described in Section 6.3(a), including without limitation, compensation for its employees, rent, utilities and other general internal expenses.  The costs of forming the Partnership were funded in accordance with the A&R Partnership Agreement.
(c)    Expenses of the Partnership.  The Partnership (or the Investment Entities, as applicable) shall bear all expenses in any Fiscal Year (other than those expressly related to the duties of the General Partner for which it receives the GP Fees pursuant to Section 6.4(a) above), including Unrelated Third Party expenses relating to the performance of those duties described in clauses (xii), (xviii) and (xxv) of Section 6.3(a), Section 6.3(d), Section 6.3(e), Section 6.8 and expenses associated with any transactions outside the Partnership’s (or the Investment Entities’) general day-to-day operations, such as due diligence and other pursuit costs, any acquisitions, development activities, financing transactions, sales of assets, mergers, acquisitions and the like (such as accounting, engineering, consulting, environmental consulting, entitlement, brokerage, financing, legal costs and expenses), and including, without limitation, construction, repairs, replacements, the preparation of financial statements, property-level audits, annual valuations, tax returns and K-1s and tax compliance activities for the Investment Entities (collectively, “Partnership Expenses”); provided, however, that a reasonable allocation of the internal time of employees of the General Partner or its Affiliates for legal services, coordinating annual valuations, tax and REIT compliance activities, financing activities and the preparation of reporting packages or reconciliations, in each case in respect of the Investment Entities or the Investments, shall be deemed to be Partnership Expenses to the extent such expenses are included in the Approved Partnership Budget or otherwise Approved by the Executive Committee, it being understood that the General Partner shall have no obligation to oversee or provide the foregoing activities unless there exists an Approved Partnership Budget for the internal time of employees of the General Partner or its Affiliates performing the same.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any costs or expenses incurred by the Partnership or the Investment Entities in connection with establishing and maintaining the REIT status of the Investment Entities shall be borne entirely by the BCIMC Limited Partner, except to the extent the Sell-Down Transferee requires similar REIT services and structural considerations, in which case, such costs and expenses shall be borne by the Partnership.
(d)    To the extent that any financing is obtained by the Partnership or any Investment Entity, the General Partner shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, but not an obligation, to provide (or cause one or more of its Affiliates to provide), any guaranties, indemnities or other credit enhancement as may be required by the lender providing such financing (each, a “Guaranty”); provided, that any such Guaranty shall be Approved by the Executive Committee in accordance with Section 6.2 (after taking into account the Partners’ obligations pursuant to Section 4.3(c)(iv) and any limitation on the deductibility of interest).  In the event the General Partner or any of its Affiliates (but not the BCIMC Limited Partner or the Sell-Down Transferee) provides a Guaranty, the General Partner shall be entitled to an annual guarantee fee from the Partnership as set forth on Exhibit D (a “Guaranty Fee”), paid by January 15 of each year and shall be payable in arrears based the applicable averages as of December 31 of the prior year.  In the event the Partnership does not pay all or any portion of any Guaranty Fee, such unpaid Guaranty Fee or portion thereof shall accrue interest at a rate of five percent (5%) per annum until paid.  Under no circumstances shall any Partner or any of their respective Affiliates have any obligation to provide any Guaranty.

6.5    Permitted Other Activities.
  Subject to Section 6.6, any Partner may engage independently or with others in other business ventures of every nature and description.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit any Affiliate of a Partner from dealing, or otherwise engaging in business, with Persons transacting business with the Partnership or an Investment Entity or from providing services relating to the purchase, sale, financing, management, development, operation, leasing or disposition of industrial-type facilities and receiving compensation therefor, even if competitive with the business of the Partnership or the Investment Entities.  Except to the extent provided for under this Agreement, no Partner shall have any right by virtue of this Agreement or the relationship created hereby in or to such other ventures or activities or to the income or proceeds derived therefrom, even if competitive with the business of the Partnership hereunder or any of the Investment Entities.

6.6    Presentation of Investments.
  The Partners have set forth certain terms relating to the presentation of Investments in Exhibit L, which is incorporated by reference and attached hereto; all references herein to Section 6.6 shall be referred to Exhibit L.

Except as otherwise described in the Act or this Agreement, each of the Limited Partners and the Special Limited Partner has no liability in excess its share of the Partnership’s assets and undistributed profits.  Neither the Limited Partners nor the Special Limited Partner shall be required to lend any funds to the Partnership or to pay to the Partnership, any Partner or any creditor of the Partnership any portion or all of any negative balance of such Limited Partner’s or Special Limited Partner’s Capital Account.  No Representative shall be liable for any losses sustained or liabilities incurred as a result of any act or omission of such Representative.

The Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless the General Partner and its Affiliates and their respective partners, officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents and Controlling Persons (individually, in each case, a “GP Indemnitee”) to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any and all losses, claims, demands, costs, damages, liabilities (joint or several), expenses of any nature (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing relating to any guaranties of Indebtedness of the Partnership or the Investment Entities (“Losses”), in which the GP Indemnitee may be involved or threatened to be involved as a party or otherwise, arising out of or incidental or relating to the business or activities of the Partnership or relating to this Agreement, except to the extent that such Losses were caused by, as to the General Partner or any GP Indemnitee, (i) Willful Bad Acts or (ii) gross negligence.  The termination of any action, suit or proceeding other than by a settlement or judgment on the merits or a conviction (for example, termination by a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent) shall not, in and of itself, create a presumption that the General Partner’s conduct did constitute Willful Bad Acts or gross negligence.  Each of the Limited Partners and the Special Limited Partner shall be solely responsible to the Partnership for any Losses relating to any guaranties of Indebtedness of the Partnership or the Investment Entities to the extent that such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, or any of its Affiliates causes recourse liability for any GP Indemnitee in respect of such guaranties arising out of such Limited Partner’s or the Special Limited Partner’s (i) Willful Bad Acts or (ii) gross negligence.  
(c)    Indemnification by the General Partner.  The General Partner shall indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership (or, without duplication, the Limited Partners, the Special Limited Partner and the Investment Entities) and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents, Controlling Persons and Affiliates (individually, in each case, an “LP Indemnitee”) and the Representatives (and the equivalent members of the boards of the Investment Entities) (each an “EC Indemnitee” and, collectively with the LP Indemnitees and the GP Indemnitees, the “Indemnitees”) to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any and all Losses to the extent caused by the Willful Bad Acts or gross negligence by the General Partner or any GP Indemnitee.
(d)    Indemnification of the LP Indemnitees and the EC Indemnitees by the Partnership.  To the extent that Section 6.7(c) (i) is not applicable, or (ii) if applicable, is not sufficient to cover all Losses to the extent caused by the Willful Bad Acts or gross negligence by the General Partner or any GP Indemnitee, the Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless the LP Indemnitees and EC Indemnitees to the fullest extent permitted by law from and 


	
			
	 
	15
	 

	 















against any and all Losses arising out of their role as limited partners of the Partnership or Representatives, respectively, except to the extent such Losses are a result of the Willful Bad Acts of any such LP Indemnitee or EC Indemnitee.  
(e)    Defense Costs.  Expenses incurred by any of the Indemnitees in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding subject to Sections 6.7(b) and (d), from time to time, upon request by the Indemnitee shall be advanced by the Partnership prior to the settlement or judgment of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Partnership of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount promptly, with interest calculated at the rate equal to two (2) percentage points above the “Federal Short-Term Rate” as defined in Section 1274(d)(1)(c)(i) of the Code, as amended (or any successor to such section) or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law, whichever is less, calculated upon the outstanding principal balance of such amount, if it shall be determined in a judicial proceeding or a binding arbitration that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Agreement.
(f)    Priority.  The payment by the Partnership of any amounts pursuant to Sections 6.7(b) and (d) shall be first made from any existing cash reserves of the Partnership or the Investment Entities, as applicable.
(g)    Non-Exclusive Rights.  The rights provided by Sections 6.7(b), (c) and (d), shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled under any agreement in writing or as a matter of law or equity shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnitee, and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
(h)    Insurance.  The General Partner shall cause the Investment Entities to be covered by such property, casualty, general liability and environmental insurance in connection with the business or activities of the Partnership hereunder and the Investment Entities exercising Due Care.  Each insurance policy shall name as additional insureds the Partnership, the General Partner, the Representatives and such other Persons as the General Partner shall determine.  The cost of any such insurance shall be an expense of the Partnership for purposes of Section 6.4.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, fidelity bonds or insurance, or errors and omissions insurance, or other insurance not falling within the first sentence hereof, shall be obtained and maintained on behalf of the General Partner at the General Partner’s expense unless otherwise Approved by the Executive Committee.
(i)    No Disqualification.  An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 6.7 or otherwise by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.
(j)    No Third Party Rights.  The provisions of this Section 6.7 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons.
(k)    Third Party Opinions.  In discharging its obligations under this Agreement, the General Partner may obtain an opinion, appraisal or examination by independent counsel, appraiser, accountant or other expert, if appropriate, upon which the General Partner and the Representatives shall be entitled to rely, to the extent reasonable, for matters within the expertise of the Person providing or rendering the same.
(l)    Special Limited Partner Indemnitees.  Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the rights and obligations contained in this Section 6.7 (other than the rights and obligations contained in the final sentence of Section 6.7(b)) with respect to the Special Limited Partner and each of its officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents, Controlling Persons and Affiliates and the Representatives (other than the BCIMC Representative) shall be subject to and limited by Article XIII of the Articles of Amendment and Restatement of IPT in the same manner that such limitations would apply if the General Partner was IPT.

The General Partner shall designate a Person (which may be the General Partner) to act as the “Tax Matters Partner” of the Partnership, as provided in Treasury Regulations pursuant to Section 6231 of the Code, as in effect for taxable years beginning before December 31, 2017, and as the “partnership

To the extent and in the manner provided by applicable Code sections and Treasury Regulations thereunder, the Tax Matters Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep each Partner informed of administrative or judicial proceedings for the adjustment of Partnership items required to be taken into account by a Partner for income tax purposes (such administrative proceedings being referred to herein as a “Tax Audit” and such judicial proceedings being referred to herein as “Judicial Review”).  In addition, upon receipt by the Tax Matters Partner of any written notice, request, inquiry or statement of a material nature from the IRS in connection with an examination of the Partnership involving a potential income tax liability for any of the Partners, the Tax Matters Partner shall promptly send each Partner a copy of the documents so received.  If the Tax Matters Partner intends to respond in writing to any such documents received from the IRS, the Tax Matters Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide a copy of its proposed response to all other Partners before such response is to be submitted to the IRS and shall consider in good faith any comments received from other Partners with respect to such proposed response.
(d)    Authorized Actions of Tax Matters Partner.  The Tax Matters Partner is authorized:
(i)    with the Approval of the Executive Committee, to enter into any settlement with the IRS with respect to any Tax Audit or Judicial Review, and in the settlement agreement the Tax Matters Partner may expressly state that such agreement shall bind all Partners except that such settlement agreement shall not bind any Partner (A) who (within the time prescribed pursuant to the Code and Treasury Regulations thereunder) files a statement with the IRS providing that the Tax Matters Partner shall not have the authority to enter into a settlement agreement on behalf of such Partner or (B) who is a “notice partner” (as defined in Section 6231 of the Code) or a member of a “notice group” (as defined in Section 6223(b)(2));
(ii)    if a notice of a final administrative adjustment at the Partnership level of any item required to be taken into account by a Partner for tax purposes (a “Final Adjustment”) is mailed to the Tax Matters Partner, with the Approval of the Executive Committee, to seek Judicial Review of such Final Adjustment, including the filing of a petition for readjustment with the Tax Court or the United States Claims Court, or the filing of a complaint for refund with the District Court of the United States for the district in which the Partnership’s principal place of business is located;
(iii)    with the Approval of the Executive Committee, to file a request for an administrative adjustment with the IRS at any time and, if any part of such request is not allowed by the IRS, to file an appropriate pleading (petition or complaint) for Judicial Review with respect to such request;
(iv)    with the Approval of the Executive Committee, to enter into an agreement with the IRS to extend the period for assessing any tax which is attributable to any item required to be taken into account by a Partner for tax purposes, or an item affected by such item; and


	
			
	 
	17
	 

	 















(v)    with the Approval of the Executive Committee, to take any other action on behalf of the Partners or the Partnership in connection with any Tax Audit or Judicial Review proceeding to the extent permitted by applicable law or regulations or this Agreement.
(e)    Indemnification of Tax Matters Partner.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (but subject to Section 6.7 of this Agreement), the Partnership shall indemnify, and reimburse, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Tax Matters Partner for all Losses incurred in connection with any Tax Audit or Judicial Review proceeding with respect to the tax liability of the Partners, except to the extent the Tax Matters Partner’s conduct constituted a Willful Bad Act or gross negligence.
(f)    Discretion of Tax Matters Partner.  Except as expressly set forth herein, the taking of any action and the incurring of any expense by the Tax Matters Partner in connection with any such proceeding, except to the extent required by law, is a matter in the sole discretion of the Tax Matters Partner and the provisions on limitations of liability of the General Partner and indemnification set forth in Section 6.7 of this Agreement shall be fully applicable to the Tax Matters Partner in its capacity as such.

6.9    Prohibited Payments.  The General Partner shall not knowingly (a) make any payment or transfer anything of value with the intent, or which has the purpose or effect of, engaging in commercial bribery, or acceptance of or acquiescence in kickbacks or other unlawful or improper means of obtaining or retaining business and not promise, offer, or (b) give to a government official, directly or indirectly, any money or anything else of value, for the government official himself or herself or another Person, in order to influence that government official to act or refrain from acting in the exercise of his or her official duties, in both cases, in relation to the business of the Partnership or the Investment Entities.

ARTICLE 7     
 
WITHDRAWAL AND REMOVAL OF GENERAL PARTNER 



7.1    Voluntary Withdrawal.  Except as otherwise provided in Article 8, the General Partner shall not have the right to retire or withdraw voluntarily from the Partnership, and any withdrawal in violation hereof shall constitute a breach of this Agreement and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.3.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the IPT Limited Partner shall have the right to appoint a substitute general partner which is an Affiliate of the IPT Limited Partner, which shall be admitted immediately prior to the withdrawal of the General Partner and shall continue the business of the Partnership without dissolution.  Prior to any such voluntary withdrawal from the Partnership and appointment of a substitute general partner, the General Partner shall give the Limited Partners and the Special Limited Partner notice of its intention to withdraw at least ninety (90) days in advance of such withdrawal.

In the event of the bankruptcy of the General Partner or other events that cause the General Partner to cease to be a general partner under Sections 17-402(a)(6), (7), (8), (9), (10), (11) or (12) of the Act, the General Partner shall cease to be the general partner of the Partnership and its Interest shall terminate; provided, however, that such termination shall not affect any rights or liabilities of the General Partner which matured prior to such event, or the value, if any, at the time of such event of the Interest of the General Partner.

7.3    Liability of Withdrawn General Partner.  If the General Partner shall cease to be general partner of the Partnership, it shall be and remain liable for all obligations and liabilities incurred by it as general partner prior to the time such withdrawal shall have become effective, but it shall be free of any obligation or liability incurred on account of the activities of the Partnership from and after the time such withdrawal shall have become effective; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve the General Partner from any liability arising from any withdrawal from the Partnership in violation of this Agreement.

7.4    Removal of General Partner for Cause.  The Partners have set forth certain terms relating to the Removal of the General Partner in Exhibit M, which is incorporated by reference and attached hereto; all references herein to Section 7.4 shall be referred to Exhibit M.

TRANSFER OF INTERESTS

8.1    Assignments.  
(a)    Restriction of Assignments.  No Partner shall, directly or indirectly, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate, transfer by gift, exchange or otherwise dispose of or encumber its Interests by operation of law or otherwise (all of the foregoing being referred to hereinafter as a “Transfer”, but excluding from the definition of Transfer any IPT REIT Listing Transaction), except in accordance with this Section 8.1.  Any assignment and the rights of the assignee with respect to the assigned Interest in connection with a Transfer permitted by this Agreement shall be subject to Section 8.2.  Any Transfer made in contravention of this Agreement shall be null and void and the transferee shall receive no right, title or interest in or to any Interests as a result of such Transfer made in violation of this Agreement.  In addition, any Transfer otherwise permitted by this Agreement shall be null and void unless (i) the permitted transferee (the “Transferee”) agrees to adopt and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and other relevant documents as if the Transferee had been an original party hereto and (ii) the Transfer would not result in any violation of the ownership limitations set forth in the organizational documents of each Investment Entity intended to preserve the qualification of such Investment Entity as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes within the meaning of Section 856 of the Code.  The parties acknowledge that a transfer or issuance of any interests in IPT, IPT HoldCo, IPT OpCo, IPT Advisors Group, or IPT Advisors shall not constitute a Transfer for the purposes of this Agreement; provided, that such a transfer may still constitute an IPT Change of Control pursuant to Section 7.4(a)(vi).
(b)    Permitted Assignments.  Subject to the General Partner’s obligations pursuant to Section 2.2(e), (x) at any time, each Limited Partner and the Special Limited Partner may Transfer all (but not part) of its Interest to an Affiliate of such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, or (y) from and after the date on which Stabilization has been obtained in respect of the Partnership’s last acquired Development Investment (the “Trigger Date”), but subject to Sections 8.1(c) and (d), a Limited Partner may Transfer all (but not part) of its Interest to any Unrelated Third Party; provided, however, that any Transfer shall be subject, in all events, to the following limitations:
(i)    no Transfer of any Interest may be made if, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Partnership, such assignment would require filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act or would otherwise violate any Federal or state securities or Blue Sky laws (including any investment suitability standards) or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Interests;
(ii)    no Transfer on any date of an Interest may be made if, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, it would be effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code; 
(iii)    no Transfer of any Interest may be made if, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, it likely would cause any Investment Entity to no longer qualify as a real estate investment trust or would subject any Investment Entity to any additional taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code; 
(iv)    no Transfer of any Interest may be made to a Transferee unless the Transferee is an Accredited Investor, as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, as certified to the satisfaction of the Partnership; 
(v)    no Transfer of any Interest may be made to a Transferee unless the Transferee is (A) a real estate investment trust, bank, saving and loan association, investment bank, insurance company, trust company, commercial credit corporation, pension plan, pension fund or pension advisory firm, mutual fund, government entity or plan, provided that any such Person referred to in this clause (A) satisfies the Eligibility Requirements, (B) an investment company, money management firm or “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act or an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act, provided that any such Person referred to in this clause (B) satisfies the Eligibility Requirements, (C) an institution substantially similar to any of the Persons described in clause (A) or (B) above that satisfies the Eligibility Requirements, or (D) an investment fund, limited liability company, limited partnership or general partnership where either (I) a nationally-recognized manager of investment funds that (x) invests in debt or equity interests relating to commercial real estate, (y) invests through a fund with committed capital of at least $1,000,000,000, and (z) is not the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding or (II) an entity that is otherwise a Qualified Institutional Transferee under clauses (A), (B) or (C) above acts as the general partner, managing member or fund manager and at least fifty percent (50%) of the equity interests in such investment vehicle are owned, directly or indirectly, by one or more Persons that are otherwise Qualified Institutional Transferees under clauses (A), (B) or (C) above (each of the foregoing, a “Qualified Institutional Transferee”); 
(vi)    no Transfer of any Interest held by the IPT Limited Partner may be made to a Transferee unless the General Partner concurrently Transfers its Interest to such Transferee (or to such Transferee’s Affiliate or designee); and
(vii)    no Transfer of any Interest may be made to a governmental or sovereign entity of British Columbia.
As used herein, “Eligibility Requirements” shall mean with respect to any Person, that (x) such Person has total assets (in name, under management or advisement and/or pursuant to undrawn, binding, irrevocable capital commitments) in excess of $1,000,000,000 and (except with respect to a pension advisory firm, registered investment advisor or asset manager) capital/statutory surplus, shareholder’s equity and/or undrawn, binding, irrevocable capital commitments of at least $250,000,000 and (y) such Person is regularly engaged in the business of making or owning (or, in the case of a pension advisory firm, registered investment advisor, asset manager or similar fiduciary, regularly engaged in managing investments in) debt or equity interests relating to commercial real estate.  
    
In addition, subject to Sections 8.1(c) and (d), at any time following the Trigger Date, upon receipt of prior written approval thereof by the BCIMC Limited Partner (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided, that it shall be deemed reasonable to take into consideration factors other than financial capability), the General Partner may, on its own behalf and on behalf of the IPT Limited Partner, Transfer all of the Interests held by the General Partner and the IPT Limited Partner in the Partnership to a Qualified Institutional Transferee, in which event the provisions of Article 7 shall apply governing substitution of the General Partner and transition of its duties and responsibilities to a substitute general partner of the Partnership.


(c)    Rights of First Opportunity.
(i)    If any Partner (other than the Special Limited Partner) should desire to Transfer its Interest (which may be Transferred in whole but not in part) other than a Transfer to an Affiliate of such Partner or a Transfer pursuant to Section 8.1(e), such Partner (the “Offering Partner”) first shall submit to all of the other Partners (other than the Special Limited Partner) (the “Offeree Partners”) a binding written offer (the “Offer”) to sell such Interest to the Offeree Partners; provided, that a copy of any Offer shall also be delivered to the Special Limited Partner.  The Offer shall include the price of the Interest (the “Offer Price”) and any other terms of the proposed Transfer and shall continue to be a binding offer to sell until the earlier of (i) the date the Offer is expressly rejected by all the Offeree Partners or (ii) the expiration of a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of the Offer by the Offeree Partners (the “Offer Period”).  If the Offeree Partner(s) desire to accept the Offer, the Offeree Partner(s) shall notify the Offering Partner in writing prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, which notice shall be irrevocable (a “ROFO Acceptance Notice”).  If more than one Offeree Partner shall have accepted the Offer within the Offer Period, then the Interests shall be allocated among such Offeree Partners as they may agree or, if they fail to agree, then in proportion to their respective Allocable Share at the time of such purchase.  As used herein, “Allocable Share” shall mean with respect to any Partner, a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is such Partner’s Percentage Interest and (y) the denominator of which is the sum of the applicable Partners’ aggregate Percentage Interests.
(ii)    Closing.  
		
	(A)
	Closing Date.  The closing of the sale of Interests to the Offeree Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) shall be held on the date mutually selected by the Offeree Partner(s) that is no later than sixty (60) days after the delivery of the ROFO Acceptance Notice (the “Closing Period”).  The closing shall be completed through a customary closing escrow, and the Offer Price shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds.  The closing of the sale of Interests to the Offeree Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) shall be on an “as is” and “where is” basis with no representations or warranties other than a representation from the Offering Partner that (A) it owns the Interest being transferred free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances other than permitted liens, claims or encumbrances that were deducted in determining the applicable price of the Interest and liens, claims and encumbrances securing indebtedness of the Partnership or an Investment Entity, (B) it has full right and authority to sell such Interest and that the sale has been duly authorized, (C) the assignment document has been duly authorized, executed and delivered, (D) the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will not violate the terms of any agreement to which the Offering Partner is a party, or any order, judgment, or decree applicable to the Offering Partner and (E) no consent, approval, or authorization of or designation, declaration, or filing with any governmental authority or other Person is required on the part of the Offering Partner in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or, if required, has been obtained (clauses (A) - (E), the “Required Representations”).


		
	(B)
	Required Documents.  Prior to or at the closing of the sale of Interests to the Offeree Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 8.1(c), the Offering Partner shall supply to the Offeree Partner(s) all documents customarily required (or reasonably required by the Offeree Partner(s)) to make a good and sufficient conveyance of such Interest to the Offeree Partner(s), which documents shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner.


		
	(C)
	Conditions Precedent to Closing.  The obligation of the Offeree Partner(s) to pay the purchase price in connection with a sale of Interests pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) shall be conditioned upon the Interest being transferred free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, other than permitted liens, claims and encumbrances that were waived by the Offeree Partner(s) and deducted in determining the applicable price of the Interest and permitted liens, claims and encumbrances securing indebtedness of the Partnership or the Investment Entities.  This condition is for the sole benefit of the Offeree Partner(s) and may be waived by the Offeree Partner(s) in whole or in part in each of their sole discretion.


		
	(D)
	Brokerage.  No brokerage fees or commissions shall be payable by the Partnership in connection with any purchase pursuant to this Section 8.1(c), and each Partner shall indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership and the other Partners from and against any such claims made based upon the actions of such Partner, including any fees and expenses in defending any such claims.


(iii)    In connection with any sale made pursuant to this Section 8.1(c):
		
	(A)
	the Offeree Partner(s) shall pay all fees and costs customarily paid by purchasers of companies that own and operate real property in each jurisdiction where the Investments are located (which may include title fees, recording costs, recording and transfer taxes, as applicable);


		
	(B)
	the Offering Partner shall pay all fees and costs customarily paid by sellers of companies that own and operate real property in each jurisdiction in which the Investments are located (which may include title fees, recording costs, recording and transfer taxes, as applicable);


		
	(C)
	the Offering Partner and the Offeree Partner(s) each shall pay its own legal fees; and


		
	(D)
	the Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner shall adjust the purchase price to reflect all adjustments customarily made in connection with the sale of companies that own and operate real estate in each jurisdiction in which the Investments are located (which may include the proration and apportionment of any revenues and expenses of the Investments).


In the event of a dispute with respect to any of the adjustments and prorations to be made pursuant to this Section 8.1(c)(iii), each of the purchasing Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner shall submit to an arbitration pursuant to Section 9.4 of this Agreement.  The arbitrator shall be limited to awarding only one or the other of the two adjustment proposals submitted.  The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the purchasing Offeree Partner(s) and the Offering Partner.


(iv)    Within three (3) Business Days after the Offering Partner’s receipt of a ROFO Acceptance Notice, the Offeree Partner(s) shall deposit in immediately available funds to a national title insurance company reasonably acceptable to the Offering Partner an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the price of the offered Interest (the “Deposit”).  The Deposit shall be applied against the Offer Price at closing and shall be nonrefundable to the Offeree Partner(s) (except in the event of a material default of the Offering Partner in performing its closing obligations pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii)).
(v)    At the expiration of the Offer Period, if none of the Offeree Partner(s) have accepted the Offer, the Offering Partner may Transfer the Interest (in whole, but not in part) subject to the Offer to any Transferee (but subject to the Offeree Partner(s)’ continuing rights to participate in a Tag Along Transfer) for a period of one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Offer Period.  If no such sale is made by the Offering Partner within such one hundred and twenty (120) day period, the restrictions set forth in this Section 8.1(c) thereafter shall continue to apply to the offered Interest, and no Interests thereafter shall be subject to a Transfer by the Offering Partner without again first complying with all the provisions of this Agreement.
(vi)    Termination of Obligations.  Upon the effective date of any transfer of an Interest pursuant to Section 8.1(c), the Offering Partner’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such transferred Interest, except as to indemnity rights of such Partner under this Agreement attributable to acts or events occurring prior to the effective date of such transfer and except for liabilities and obligations of such Partner arising out of such Partner’s breach of this Agreement.
(vii)    Offeree Partner(s) Failure to Close Offer.  If the Offeree Partner(s) have timely and properly delivered a ROFO Acceptance Notice, but thereafter the sale contemplated thereby fails to close within the Closing Period as a result of a default of the Offeree Partner(s) (which default is not cured within ten (10) days following the occurrence thereof), then the Offeree Partner(s) shall be in material default hereunder and the Offering Partner shall have the right to retain the Deposit and the Offeree Partner(s) shall reimburse the Offering Partner for the reasonable third-party, out-of-pocket costs actually incurred and paid by the Offering Partner in connection with the exercise of the Offer.  Thereafter, the Offering Partner (1) may pursue any other sale of its Interest to an Unrelated Third Party for a cash price and such other terms and conditions as are determined by the Offering Partner in its sole discretion (without regard to the Offer Price) for an unrestricted period and without any obligation to give any notices of such sale (including any Offer, it being agreed that this Section 8.1(c) shall no longer be applicable to such sale) or (2) may elect to purchase the Interests of the Offeree Partner(s) at the Offer Price.  Further, thereafter, the Offeree Partner(s) shall not under any circumstance be entitled to (x) issue a ROFO Acceptance Notice, (y) initiate a Buy-Sell pursuant to Section 9.1 or (z) initiate a Forced Sale pursuant to Section 9.2(a).
(viii)    Offering Partner Failure to Close Offer.  If the Offeree Partner(s) have timely and properly delivered a ROFO Acceptance Notice, but thereafter the sale contemplated thereby fails to close within the Closing Period as a result of a default of the Offering Partner (which default is not cured within ten (10) days following the occurrence thereof), then the Offering Partner shall be in material default hereunder and the Offeree Partner(s) shall have the right to either (1) seek specific performance from the Offering Partner in respect of such sale or (2) elect not to close, in which event the Offering Partner shall return the Deposit to the Offeree Partner(s), the Offering Partner shall pay to the Offeree Partner(s) an amount equal to the Deposit, and the Offering Partner shall reimburse the Offeree Partner(s) for the reasonable third-party, out-of-pocket costs actually incurred and paid by the Offeree Partner(s) in connection with exercising the relevant Offer.  Further, thereafter, the Offering Partner shall not under any circumstance be entitled to (x) issue a ROFO Acceptance Notice, (y) initiate a Buy-Sell pursuant to Section 9.1 or (z) initiate a Forced Sale pursuant to Section 9.2(a).
(ix)    Release of Offering Partner.  Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, it shall be a requirement of any offer and the closing of any acquisition of an Interest pursuant to an Offer to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a release of the Offering Partner and the Offering Partner’s Affiliates from any personal liability arising out of any and all written documents (e.g., a guaranty) with respect to any and all Partnership or Investment Entity indebtedness or obligations, including without limitation, all loans secured by any Investment (and in the event that such release is not possible in spite of commercially reasonable efforts, a creditworthy entity reasonably acceptable to the Offering Partner shall indemnify the Offering Partner and its Affiliates for any claims against the Offering Partner under any such written documents on such terms and conditions to be agreed to by the Offering Partner in its reasonable discretion until such indebtedness or obligations are released).
(d)    Tag-Along Right.  Subject to the foregoing, after the expiration of the Offer Period, if none of the Offeree Partners have accepted the Offer and the Offering Partner should desire to Transfer its Interest (which may be Transferred in whole but not in part) to a Transferee, other than a Transfer to an Affiliate of such Partner, if the Offering Partner wishes to Transfer its Interest to any Person (other than an Affiliate of such Offering Partner) (a “Tag Along Transfer”), the Offering Partner shall comply with the requirements of this Section 8.1(d).  
(i)    Prior to undertaking a Tag Along Transfer, the Offering Partner shall provide written notice to the Offeree Partners and the Special Limited Partner (the “Tag Along Notice”), which notice shall set forth (A) all of the material terms and conditions, including consideration pursuant to which it proposes to make such Tag Along Transfer (the “Tag Along Offer Terms”) and (B) the identity of, and information concerning, the Person (the “Tag Along Purchaser”) to whom it proposes to make such Tag Along Transfer.  
(ii)    Within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of an effective Tag Along Notice, each Offeree Partner shall give written notice to the Offering Partner that (A) such Offeree Partner elects to transfer its Interest to the Tag Along Purchaser on the Tag Along Offer Terms (the “Tag Along Option”) or (B) such Offeree Partner elects not to transfer its Interest to the Tag Along Purchaser (the “Non-Transfer Option”).  An Offeree Partner shall be conclusively deemed to have elected the Non-Transfer Option if it fails to give written notice of its election of either of the above-described options within such ten (10) Business Day period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Tag Along Notice is delivered simultaneously with or within twenty (20) days after an Offer is distributed to the Partners pursuant to Section 8.1(c), the time periods for notices and responses under Section 8.1(c) shall govern, as applicable.
(iii)    If an Offeree Partner elects or is deemed to have elected the Non-Transfer Option, the Offering Partner shall be permitted to make the Tag Along Transfer without such Offeree Partner, so long as such Tag Along Transfer takes place within one hundred and twenty (120) days of the Tag Along Notice and is otherwise in accordance with Section 8.1.
(iv)    If an Offeree Partner elects the Tag Along Option, the Offering Partner shall not make the Tag Along Transfer to the Tag Along Purchaser unless such Tag Along Purchaser acquires, simultaneously with its acquisition of the Offering Partner’s Interest, the Interest of such Offeree Partner at a purchase price equal to (i) the purchase price for the Offering Partner’s Interest divided by the Offering Partner’s Percentage Interest multiplied by (ii) the Offeree Partner’s Percentage Interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate reasonable and customary expenses of the Partners  incurred in connection with the transfer of their Interests (including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any brokerage fees) shall be paid (or reimbursed) out of the aggregate purchase price paid to the transferring Partners.  
(v)    If an Offeree Partner shall exercise the Tag Along Option, such Offeree Partner shall take all actions reasonably necessary to cause its Interest to be transferred to the Tag Along Purchaser, such actions to include, without limitation, executing a contract of sale if requested to do so by the Tag Along Purchaser (which contract shall be commercially reasonable and no more onerous to such Offeree Partner than the contract of sale executed by the Offering Partner) and complying with the terms thereof.
(e)    IPT Sell-Down.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the IPT Limited Partner may Transfer a portion of its Interest at any time (the “IPT Sell-Down”) to one real estate investor approved in writing by the BCIMC Limited Partner (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) (the “Sell-Down Transferee”); provided, that the IPT Limited Partner shall maintain at least a ten percent (10%) Percentage Interest in the Partnership immediately following any such IPT Sell-Down.
(f)    Successors to a Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner.  If a Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner becomes bankrupt, the trustee or receiver of the estate, shall have all of the rights of such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, solely for the purpose of settling or managing the estate and such power as such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, possessed to assign all or any part of the Interest and to join with the assignee thereof in satisfying conditions precedent to such assignee becoming a substituted Limited Partner or Special Limited Partner, as applicable. The bankruptcy of a Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner in and of itself shall not dissolve the Partnership or cause any successor to such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, to become a substituted Limited Partner or Special Limited Partner, as applicable, of such Limited Partner or the Special Limited Partner.
(g)    Recognition of Assignment.  The Partnership will not recognize for any purpose any assignment of any Interest unless (i) there shall have been filed with the Partnership a duly executed and acknowledged counterpart of the instrument making such assignment signed by both the assignor and the assignee and such instrument evidences, inter alia, the written acceptance by the assignee of all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and represents that such assignment was made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations (including investment suitability standards) and (ii) the General Partner (or any replacement therefor) has determined that such an assignment is permitted under this Article 8.  Irrespective of whether or not any successor to a Partner or a purported assignee of a Partner’s Interest hereunder provides the aforesaid instruments, any such Person shall be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement.  As a condition to any voluntary assignment of an Interest, the General Partner (or any replacement therefor) may require that the assignor or the assignee of the Interest or their respective representatives provide to the Partnership information that is reasonably requested by counsel to the Partnership to enable such counsel to determine that such assignment is not prohibited by this Article 8. 
(h)    Continued Obligations.  In no event shall a permitted Transfer be deemed to relieve the Partners who transfer their Interests from their obligations and liabilities under this Agreement, including, without limitation, their obligations with respect to Capital Contributions, except obligations arising after the permitted Transferee becomes a substituted Partner in accordance with Section 8.2.

8.2    Admission of Assignees as Substituted Partners.  
(a)    Requirements for Admission.  No assignee of a Partner’s Interest, whether or not such assignment is permitted under Section 8.1, shall be entitled to become a substituted Partner unless:
(i)    the assignee shall have agreed in writing to be bound by and shall have accepted, adopted and approved in writing all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, as the same may have been amended, and executed a power of attorney similar to the power of attorney granted in this Agreement; and
(ii)    the assignee shall pay or obligate itself to pay all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with his admission as a substituted Partner.
(b)    Effect of Assignment.  If a Partner assigns all of its Interest in accordance with the provisions of this Article 8, it shall cease to be a partner of the Partnership as of the date that such assignment is given effect by the Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Article 8.  A purported assignment of an Interest not in accordance with the provisions of this Article 8 shall not be given effect for any purpose.
(c)    Rights of Assignee.  Any Person who is a permitted assignee of any of the Interest of a Partner in accordance with the terms of this Article 8, but who does not become a substituted Partner shall be entitled to all the rights of an assignee of a limited partner interest under the Act, including the right to receive distributions from the Partnership and the share of net profits, gain, net losses, loss and any specially allocated items attributable to the Interests assigned to such Person, but shall not be deemed to be the owner of an Interest for any other purpose under this Agreement.  In the event any such Person desires to make a further assignment of any such Interests, such Person shall be subject to all the provisions of this Article 8 to the same extent and in the same manner as a Partner.
(d)    Notification of Assignment.  If a Partner assigns or exchanges all or any portion of its Interest, it must notify the Partnership of such assignment or exchange.  Such notification must be in writing and must be given within fifteen (15) days after the assignment or exchange.  Such notification must include the names and addresses of the transferor and transferee, the taxpayer identification numbers of the transferor and the transferee, the date of the assignment or exchange and any other information required by the Partnership.

ARTICLE 9     
 
BUY-SELL; FORCED SALE; DISPUTE RESOLUTION 


9.1    Buy-Sell. 
(a)    Process.  
(i)    At any time after the Trigger Date, any Limited Partner (which in the case of the IPT Limited Partner, shall be deemed to include the General Partner for all purposes of this Article 9) that is not a Defaulting Partner (the “Triggering Partner”) may initiate the procedures of this Section 9.1 (the “Buy-Sell”) by delivery of a written notice (a “Buy-Sell Notice”) to the other Limited Partners (the “Responding Partners”) and the Special Limited Partner stating that the Triggering Partner desires to initiate the Buy-Sell.  In the event that more than one Limited Partner issues a Buy-Sell Notice in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.1, the Buy-Sell Notice complying with this Section 9.1(a) that is issued first (i.e., the Buy-Sell Notice received by the other applicable Limited Partners first as determined by the date and time of receipt) shall be effective, and the other Buy-Sell Notice(s) shall be deemed not to have been issued (and therefore be ineffective).  
(ii)    The Buy-Sell Notice shall set forth the gross purchase price for the Portfolio proposed by the Triggering Partner (the “Offered Price”).  Until the date which is ninety (90) days after receipt of an Buy-Sell Notice (the “Response Period”), the Responding Partners may deliver a written notice which shall be irrevocable to the Triggering Partner after electing either to (A) accept the offer to sell its Interest (an “Acceptance Notice”) to the Triggering Partner for a price applicable to the Responding Partner’s Interest based on distributions that would be made pursuant to Section 10.2 (after giving effect to all applicable provisions of this Agreement, but after liquidating all reserves then existing and without establishing any additional reserves) if the Portfolio was sold on the date of the Buy-Sell Notice for the Offered Price and all liabilities and obligations of the Partnership and any Investment Entity (excluding contingent liabilities) were satisfied from the proceeds from such sale (upon such election to sell, a Responding Partner shall be deemed a “Selling Partner” and such applicable price shall be deemed the “Buy-Sell Price”) or (B) elect to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner for a price applicable to the Triggering Partner’s Interest based on distributions that would be made pursuant to Section 10.2 (after giving effect to all applicable provisions of this Agreement, but after liquidating all reserves then existing and without establishing any additional reserves) if the Portfolio was sold on the date of the Buy-Sell Notice for the Offered Price and all liabilities and obligations of the Partnership and any Investment Entity (excluding contingent liabilities) were satisfied from the proceeds from such sale (upon such election to buy, a Responding Partner shall be deemed a “Purchasing Partner” and such applicable price shall be deemed the “Buy-Sell Price”); provided, that if one Responding Partner elects to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner and the other Responding Partner elects to sell its Interest to the Triggering Partner, the Responding Partner electing to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner shall also be required to buy the Interest of the other Responding Partner at the price applicable to such Responding Partner’s Interest (which shall be deemed the “Buy-Sell Price”).  A failure to respond during the Response Period shall be deemed to constitute an election to sell.  If more than one Purchasing Partner shall have elected to buy the Interest of the Triggering Partner, then the Interest of the Triggering Partner shall be allocated among such Purchasing Partners in proportion to their respective Allocable Share at the time of such purchase.
(iii)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if IPT has commenced a bona fide, good faith IPT REIT Listing Transaction, the IPT Partners may, one-time only, delay (up to no more than ninety (90) days) any Buy-Sell triggered by any Limited Partner; provided, however, if IPT has filed an offering document with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), such ninety (90)-day period may be extended for up to three (3) additional separate one (1)-month periods as long as IPT is diligently responding to comments from the SEC at the time of each such extension.  
(b)    Carried Interest Amounts.  In connection with a Buy-Sell, if the Carried Interest Amounts have not been previously paid or otherwise satisfied in accordance with Section 5.3, the Partnership shall (x) pay the General Partner Carried Interest Amount to the General Partner and (y) effect the Redemption and pay the Redemption Price to the Special Limited Partner, in each case, following the procedures set forth in Section 5.3, except that the date of the closing of the Buy-Sell shall be substituted for the Calculation Date, an amount equal to the Offered Price shall be substituted for the Appraised Value and the General Partner Carried Interest Amount and the Redemption Price shall be paid in cash to the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, at the closing of the Buy-Sell.
(c)    Deposit.  Within three (3) Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance Notice, the Purchasing Partner(s) shall deposit in immediately available funds to a national title insurance company reasonably acceptable to the Selling Partner(s) an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the Purchasing Partner(s)’ Applicable Share of the Buy-Sell Price (the “Buy-Sell Deposit”).  The Buy-Sell Deposit shall be applied to the Buy-Sell Price at closing and shall be nonrefundable to the Purchasing Partner(s) (except in the event of a material default of the Selling Partner(s) in performing its closing obligations pursuant to Section 9.1(d)).
(d)    Closing.  
(i)    Closing Date.  The closing of the sale of Interests to the Purchasing Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be held on the date mutually selected by the Purchasing Partner(s) that is no later than sixty (60) days after the delivery of the Acceptance Notice (the “Buy-Sell Closing Period”).  The closing shall be completed through a customary closing escrow, and the Buy-Sell Price shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds.  The closing of the sale of Interests to the Purchasing Partner(s) pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be on an “as is” and “where is” basis with no representations or warranties other than the Required Representations.
(ii)    Required Documents.  Prior to or at the closing of any Buy-Sell, the Selling Partner(s) shall supply to the Purchasing Partner(s) all documents customarily required (or reasonably required by the Purchasing Partner(s)) to make a good and sufficient conveyance of such Interest to the Purchasing Partner(s), which documents shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchasing Partner(s) and the Selling Partner(s).
(iii)    Conditions Precedent to Closing.  The obligation of the Purchasing Partner(s) to pay the purchase price in connection with a Buy-Sell shall be conditioned upon the Interest being transferred free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, other than permitted liens, claims and encumbrances that were waived by the Purchasing Partner(s) and deducted in determining the applicable price of the Interest and permitted liens, claims and encumbrances securing indebtedness of the Partnership or the Investment Entities.  This condition is for the sole benefit of the Purchasing Partner(s) and may be waived by the Purchasing Partner(s) in whole or in part in each of their sole discretion.
(e)    Brokerage.  No brokerage fees or commissions shall be payable by the Partnership in connection with any purchase pursuant to this Section 9.1, and each Partner shall indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership and the other Partners from and against any such claims made based upon the actions of such Partner, including any fees and expenses in defending any such claims.
(f)    Adjustments and Closing Costs.  In connection with any sale made pursuant to this Section 9.1:
(i)    the Purchasing Partner(s) shall pay all fees and costs customarily paid by purchasers of companies that own and operate real property in each jurisdiction where the Investments are located (which may include title fees, recording costs, recording and transfer taxes, as applicable);
