9. Amendment to Section 6.4K of the Partnership Agreement. From and after the Effective

follows:
"K.
(i) Subject to any consents required by the Lender or the any Agency, the General Partner
shall have the option ("Call"), to be exercised by written notice to Investor Limited Partner given
at any time between the first day after the last day of the Compliance Period and two years after
the first day after the last day of the Compliance Period (the "Call Period"), to purchase the
Investor Limited Partner's Interest in the Partnership for a price equal to greater of (a) the fair
market value of the Investor Limited Partner's Interest in the Partnership or (b) the exit tax
liability of the Investor Limited Partner. The fair market value of the Investor Limited Partner's
Interests for this purpose shall be the amount the Investor Limited Partner would have received,
pursuant to Section 10, from a hypothetical sale of the Property for its fair market value (taking
into account a deemed brokerage commission in the amount of six percent (6%) and other typical
sales costs and with value taking into account all restrictions on the use ofthe Property). If the
General Partner and. Investor Limited Partner cannot agree on the fair market value within twenty
(20) calendar days after the date of the Call, then the fair market value shall be determined by
two (2) independent appraisers (both members of the Master Appraiser Institute and with
experience with affordable housing properties), one (I) selected by the General Partner and one
(I) selected by the Investor Limited Partner. If such appraisers are unable to agree on the value
of the Investor Limited Partner's Interest, they shall jointly appoint a third independent appraiser
whose determination shall be final and binding. The appraisers may act with or without a
hearing, and the cost of the third party independent appraiser will be paid by the Partnership. The
exit tax liability shall be the sum of all federal, state and local tax liability imposed on the
Investor Limited Partner, including, without limitation, income taxes, from a hypothetical sale of
the Property for an amount equal to the outstanding principal, accrued interest, any prepayment
penalty and other sums due in connection with any mortgage debt relating to the Property or
other indebtedness of the Partnership.
(il) Subject to any consents required by the Lender or any Agency, at any time from and after
the expiration of the Call Period without exercise of the Call, the Investor Limited Partner shall
have the option (the "Put") to require the General Partner to purchase all of the Investor Limited
Partner's Interest for a price (the "Put Price") equal to the lesser of (a) the fair market value of
the Investor Limited Partner's Interest in the Partnership or (b) the exit tax liability of the
Investor Limited Partner. The Fair market value and the exit tax liability shall be determined by
the process set forth in Section 6.4K(i) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Put Price shall
not, in any event, be less than $100.00. Such put right shall be exercisable by written notice
from the Investor Limited Partner to the General Partner, and upon receipt of such notice, the
General Partner shall have 180 calendar days to acquire the Investor Limited Partner Interest
4834-7019-5203.2

described in such notice. The failure of the General Partner to pay the Put Price and consummate
the purchase within 180 calendar days shall entitle the Special Limited Partner and the Investor
Limited Partner to the rights set forth in Section 6.4K(iii) below.
(iii) If the General Partner has not exercised its rights under Section 6.4K(i) above and the

liability on the General Partner or its Affiliates, the General Partner shall have a right of first
refusal to purchase within six (6) months either (a) the Property on the same terms and at the
same price, or (b) the Investor Limited Partner's Interest in the Partnership for a price equal to
the amount the Investor limited Partner would have received, pursuant to Section 10, from a
hypothetical sale of the Property at the price set forth in such final offer.
(iv) Concurrent with any transfer of the Investor Limited Partner Interest in the Partnership
pursuant to Sections 6.4K (i), (ii), or (iii) above, the General Partner shall acquire the Special
Limited Partner's Interest in the Partnership for a price of$100.00."
