the Limited Partners.

DOC ID • 26354060.5
15
EFTA00803533
Regulations Section I .704-2(bX4)) equal to the Partnership Minimum Gain that

(as defined in Treasury Regulations Section I .752-I(aX2)) determined in
accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(iX3) ("Partner Nonrecourse
Debt Minimum Gain") during any taxable year of the Fund, the Partners shall be

subsequent years) in an amount equal to their respective shares of such net decrease
during such year, determined pursuant to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)
and 1.704-2(i)(5). The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance
with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f). This Section 5.08(bXi) is intended

Regulations Sections and shall be interpreted consistently therewith, including that
no chargeback shall be required to the extent ofthe exceptions provided in Treasury
Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f) and 1.704-2(iX4).

provision of this Agreement, and (ii) the amount such Partner is deemed to be
obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Treasury Regulations
Sections 1.704-2(g)(I) and 1.704-2(iX5), each such Partner shall be specially
allocated items of income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as
possible; prad that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.08(b)(iii) shall be
made only if and to the extent that a Partner would have a deficit Capital Account
in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Section
5.08have been tentatively made as if Section 5.08(bXii) and this Section 5.08(b)(iii)
were not in this Agreement.
(iv) Nonrecourse Deductions. "Nonrecourse Deductions" as

had not occurred.

income, gain, loss and deduction of the Fund shall be allocated among the Partners in the same
manner as the corresponding items are allocated for Capital Account purposes; provided that in

federal income tax purposes, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall be
allocated solely for income tax purposes pursuant to the principles of Sections 704(b) and (c) of
the Code (in any permitted manner determined by the General Partner) so as to take account of the
difference between the Carrying Value and adjusted tax basis of such asset. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the General Partner, in its sole discretion, shall make allocations for tax purposes as
may be needed to ensure that allocations are in accordance with the interests of the Partners within
the meaning of the Code and the Treasury Regulations. The General Partner, in its sole discretion,

relevant taxable period made to the General Partner on account of the Carried Interest (computed
on the assumption that the income allocated to the General Partner is taxed at the Combined Tax
Rate) over (2) the distributions of Carried Interest ("Carried Interest Distributions") during such
Fiscal Year and, without duplication, any prior Tax Distributions made to the General Partner
with respect to such Fiscal Year or other relevant taxable period. Any Tax Distributions shall

18
EFTA00803536

Section 6.02 shall be adjusted to take into account such Tax Distributions.

(b)
discretion, the General Partner may cause the Fund to retain or withhold amounts with respect
to distributions or allocations to any Partner and make tax payments, including interest and
penalties thereon, on behalf of or with respect to any Partner ("Withholding Tax Amounts"). All

(a) be promptly paid to the Fund by the Partner on whose behalf such Withholding Tax Amounts
were made or (b) be repaid by reducing the amount of the current or next succeeding distribution
or distributions that would otherwise have been made to such Partner. Whenever the General
Partner selects the option set forth in clause (b) of the immediately preceding sentence for
repayment of a Withholding Tax Amount by a Partner, for all other purposes of this Agreement
such Partner shall be treated as having received all distributions unreduced by the amount of
such Withholding Tax Amount. Each Partner hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Fund, any Alternative Investment Vehicle or Feeder Fund, the Manager and the General Partner
and any employee, partner, member, director or officer of any of them from and against any

treaty, or otherwise, the Partner shall furnish the General Partner with such information and
forms as such Partner may be required to complete where necessary to comply with any and all
laws and regulations governing the obligations of withholding tax agents. Each Partner
represents and warrants that any such information and forms furnished by such Partner shall be
true and accurate and agrees to indemnify the Fund, the General Partner, the Manager, any
Alternative Investment Vehicle or Feeder Fund and each of the Partners from any and all
damages, costs and expenses resulting from the filing of inaccurate or incomplete information
or forms relating to such withholding taxes.

may be or become subject in connection with or arising from the Fund's business or affairs or in
the execution or discharge oftheir duties, powers, authorities or discretions; except to the extent

Conduct. The termination of any proceeding by settlement, judgment, order, conviction or upon

a plea of nob contendere or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the
Indemnified Party's conduct constituted Disabling Conduct. The General Partner shall have the
authority on behalf of the Fund to enter into a separate agreement or agreements with an
Indemnified Party in order to directly extend to such Indemnified Party the benefits of the
undertakings and indemnities given in favor of each Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section

determined ultimately that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified hereunder.
For the avoidance of doubt, in the event any such Indemnified Party is not deemed to have
engaged in Disabling Conduct by a tribunal of competent jurisdiction, the indemnification
provision described in Section 7.04(b) will apply. The right of any Indemnified Party to the
indemnification provided herein shall be cumulative of, and in addition to, any and all rights to
which such Indemnified Party may otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of law or
equity and shall be extended to such Indemnified Party's successors, assigns and legal
representatives. Any judgments against the Fund and the General Partner in respect of which
the General Partner is entitled to indemnification shall first be satisfied from Fund assets before
the General Partner is responsible therefor.

Indemnified Parties relating to or arising out of, or alleged to relate to or arise out of, any
Indemnifiable Items, the Indemnified Parties shall have the right to jointly employ, at the expense
of the Fund, counsel of the Indemnified Parties' choice, which counsel shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Fund, in such action, suit or proceeding• provided that if retention of joint
counsel by the Indemnified Parties would create a conflict ofinterest, each group ofIndemnified
Parties which would not cause such a conflict shall have the right to employ, at the expense of
the Fund, separate counsel of the Indemnified Parties' choice, which counsel shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Fund, in such action, suit or proceeding.
(f) The satisfaction of the obligations of the Fund under this Sectioril
7.04 shall be from and limited to the sum of(a) the assets of the Fund and (b) subject to Section
7.05, the amount of aggregate distributions made by the Fund to the Partners (which the General
Partner shall have the right to recall subject to Section 7.05). My amounts to be recontributed
by each Partner under this Section 7.04(e) shall be recontributed pm Egg based on distributions
received in the inverse order in which amounts were distributed to all Partners under Section
6.02, taking into account any amounts previously recontributed by the Partners under this Section
7.04(e). The obligations under this Section 7.04(e) may be waived by the General Partner as to
any Limited Partner who the General Partner determines, in its sole discretion, is limited by
applicable law or regulation or governing policy from performing its obligations under this
Section 7.04(e) (without increasing the respective obligation of any other Limited Partner under

last day of the term of the Fund or, with respect to any Partner, before or after such Partner's
withdrawal from the Fund. Any distributions returned pursuant to this Section 7.05 shall not be
treated as Capital Contributions, but shall be treated as returns of distributions and reductions of
net investment proceeds, in making subsequent distributions pursuant to Sections 6.02, 6.03 and
11.02. Nothing in this Section 7.05, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to give
any Person other than the Fund or the General Partner any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim
under or in respect of this Section 7.05 or any provision contained herein.
Section 7.06 Fund Costs and Expenses.
(a) Except as otherwise provided and subject to any limits in this
Agreement, the Fund will pay for, or reimburse the General Partner and the Manager for their
payment of, its Fund Expenses. To the extent a Fund Expense is not specific to the Fund, such

modification or amendment if they fail to object to such modification or amendment within a
specific period of time set by the General Partner). Without the consent of any Unaffiliated
Limited Partners, however, the General Partner may amend this Agreement to (i) reflect changes
validly made in the membership of the Fund and the Capital Contributions of the Partners; (ii)
reflect a change in the name of the Fund; (iii) make a change that is necessary or, in the opinion of
the General Partner, advisable to qualify the Fund as a limited partnership or a partnership in which
the Limited Partners have limited liability in all jurisdictions in which the Fund conducts or plans
to conduct business, or to ensure that the Fund shall not be treated as an association taxable as a
corporation or a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes;
(iv) make a change that does not adversely affect the Limited Partners in any material respect; (v)
make a change that is necessary or desirable to cure any ambiguity, or to correct or supplement
any provision in this Agreement that would otherwise be inconsistent with any other provision in
this Agreement, or to otherwise provide for matters or questions arising under this Agreement so
long as such change shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement; (vi) make a
change that is necessary or desirable to satisfy any requirements, conditions or guidelines
contained in any opinion, directive, order, statute, ruling or regulation of any U.S. federal, state or
non-U.S. governmental entity, so long as such change is made in a manner which seeks to
minimize any adverse effect on the Limited Partners; (vii) make a change that is required or
contemplated by this Agreement; (viii) make a change in any provision of this Agreement that
requires any action to be taken by or on behalf of the General Partner or the Fund pursuant to
applicable Delaware law, if the provisions of applicable Delaware law are amended, modified or
revoked so that the taking of such action is no longer required; (ix) prevent the Fund from in any
manner being deemed an "investment company" subject to the provisions of the Investment
Company Act; or (x) make any other amendments similar to the foregoing. Each Limited Partner,
however, must approve of any amendment which would (a) reduce its right to receive distributions;
(b) change the percentage of aggregate Capital Account balances of all of the Unaffiliated Limited
Partners necessary for any consent required to the taking of an action without the approval of
Limited Partners who then hold aggregate Capital Account balances equal to or in excess of the
required Capital Account balances for the subject of such proposed amendment; or (c) amend the
provisions of this Section 13.01.
