(e) Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal year shall be specially allocated among the Members in proportion to their Economic Percentages.

(f) Except as provided in Section 1.1(a) of this Section 1, in the event that any Member receives an allocation of loss or any distribution which causes the Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of the Fiscal Year, then all items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to the Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of the Member as quickly as possible.

(g) The Regulatory Allocations are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this Section 1.1. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of Section 4.1 of the Agreement (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Executive Committee shall make the offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after the offsetting allocations are made, each Member's Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of the Agreement and all Company items were allocated pursuant to Section 4.1 of this Agreement.

1.2. Definitions. For purposes of this Exhibit D, the following definitions shall apply:

Adjusted Capital Account Deficit—With respect to any Member, the deficit balance, if any, in the Member's Capital Account as of the end of the relevant Fiscal Years after giving effect to the following adjustments:

(i) credit to such Capital Account any amounts which the Member is obligated to restore or is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentence of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5); and

(ii) debit to such Capital Account the items described in Sections 1 704- 1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6) of the Regulations.

The foregoing definition of Adjusted Capital Account Deficit is intended to comply with the provisions of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
