b.                If either party fails to name an appraiser within the specified time, the other party may select the second appraiser.  The two (2) appraisers so selected shall proceed promptly to determine the fair market value of the Partnership property, taking into consideration any outstanding indebtedness, liabilities, liens, and obligations relating to the Partnership property.

 

c.                The determination of the fair market value of the Partnership property by the two (2) appraisers selected as provided above shall be final and binding on all parties.  If the two (2) appraisers so selected are unable to agree on the fair market value of the Partnership property, they shall select a third appraiser whose determination as to fair market value shall be final and binding on all parties. 

 

d.                The appraisers shall deliver a written report of their appraisal or the appraisal of the third appraiser, as the case may be, to the General Partner and to the executor or other legal representative of the estate of the deceased Limited Partner. 

 

e.                Each party shall pay the fee and expenses of the respective appraiser selected by such party, and if a third appraiser shall be appointed, the fee and expenses of the third appraiser shall be borne one-half (l/2) by the General Partner and one-half (l/2) by the estate of the deceased Limited Partner.

 

f.                During the period between the date of death and the date the purchase price is paid to the estate of the deceased Limited Partner, the General Partner shall contribute the deceased Limited Partner's share of any contribution required to be made to the Partnership under the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the amount of any such payment made by the General Partner during the period between the date of the deceased Limited Partner's death and the date of the appraisers' report shall be deducted from the amount of the purchase price to be paid to the estate of the deceased Limited Partner. 

 

g.                The purchase price shall be evidenced by a negotiable promissory note in a principal amount equal to the purchase price of the deceased Limited Partner's interest in the Partnership as computed as provided in this Agreement, and providing for interest at the rate of __________ percent (_____%) per annum, payable in [number and frequency] installments, and containing acceleration and other customary clauses.

 

h.                The note shall bear interest from the date of death of the deceased Limited Partner with the first principal and accrued interest payment being due and payable [six (6) months] following the date of death.

 

i.                The General Partner shall have the right to prepay any and all installments of the note at any time with no premium or penalty. 

 

j.                On delivery of the note and the assumption by the General Partner of all liability of the deceased Limited Partner for any outstanding indebtedness, liabilities, liens, and obligations relating to the Partnership, the estate of the deceased Limited Partner shall have no further interest in the Partnership or in its business or assets, and the executor or other legal representative of the estate of the deceased Limited Partner shall execute and deliver such deeds, conveyances, and other instruments as may be reasonably necessary to evidence and render fully effective the transfer of the interest of the deceased Limited Partner in the Partnership and its business assets.

 

k.                The interest of the deceased Limited Partner shall be acquired by the General Partner, who shall become a Limited Partner to the extent of such interest.

 

12.  TERMINATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP

 

12.1         The General Partner, effective as of the last day of any calendar year of the Partnership, may voluntarily withdraw from the Partnership as General Partner.  

 

a.                Any such withdrawal shall have the effect of terminating the Partnership as of the close of business on that day.

12.2         The Partnership may be terminated on any date specified in a notice of termination, signed by the General Partner and by a majority of all the Limited Partners.  As used in this Agreement, a majority of the Limited Partners means Limited Partners having in the aggregate a majority of the capital interest of the Limited Partners in the Partnership as of the time the notice of termination is executed.

 

a.                The death or incapacity of a Limited Partner shall have no effect on the life of the Partnership, which shall continue.

b.                The Trustee in Liquidation need not be a commercial corporate trustee, need not be bonded, and may be a Limited Partner. Whoever serves to wind up the affairs of the Partnership, the following procedure shall be followed:

 

c.                On termination, the assets of the Partnership shall be applied to payment of the outstanding Partnership liabilities, although an appropriate reserve may be maintained and the amount determined by the General Partner or Trustee in Liquidation for any contingent liability, until that contingent liability is satisfied. 

 

d.                The balance of the reserve, if any, shall be distributed together with any other sum remaining after payment of the outstanding Partnership liabilities to the Partners as their interest appears on Exhibit "A," unless otherwise provided in this Agreement.

 

e.                At the time of the termination of the Partnership, no Partner, either General or Limited, shall be liable to the Partnership for the repayment of any deficit in his or her capital account resulting from the allocation of non-cash items such as depreciation to that Partner's capital account; provided, however, that any deficit resulting from cash withdrawals by the Partner shall be repaid to the Partnership and be available for distribution hereunder.

 

12.4         Nothing contained in this Agreement shall defeat the right of either a Limited or a General Partner to require and to obtain a court-supervised winding up, liquidation, and dissolution of the Partnership.

 

a.                No Partner shall be entitled to demand a distribution be made in Partnership property, but the General Partner may make or direct property distributions to be made, using the property's fair market value as of the time of distribution as the basis for making the distribution.

                d.                That he or she has been furnished with sufficient written and oral information about the Partnership, the General Partner, and the property to be purchased  and developed to allow him or her to make an informed investment decision prior to purchasing an interest in the Partnership,  and has been furnished access to any  additional information that he or she may require.

 

                e.                That he or she is fully familiar with the  business proposed to be conducted by the  Partnership and with the Partnership's use  and proposed use of the proceeds of the sale of the Partnership interests.
