There are being registered hereunder such presently indeterminate number of beneficial unit certificates representing assigned limited partnership interests (“BUCs”) of America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. which may be offered and sold in such amount as shall result in an aggregate offering price not to exceed $225,000,000.  This Registration Statement also covers an indeterminate amount of securities, if applicable, as may be issued in exchange for, or upon conversion or exercise of, as the case may be, the securities registered hereunder, including, pursuant to Rule 416 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), any securities issuable upon a unit split, unit dividend, recapitalization, or similar event.

(2)

The proposed maximum aggregate offering price has been estimated solely to calculate the registration fee in accordance with Rule 457(o) under the Securities Act.  Pursuant to Rule 415(a)(6) under the Securities Act, the securities registered pursuant to this Registration Statement include $75,000,000 of unissued and unsold securities (the “Unsold Securities”) previously registered by the registrant on the registrant’s expiring Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-214656), filed by the registrant on November 16, 2016, and declared effective on November 29, 2016 (the “Prior Registration Statement”).  The Prior Registration Statement registered BUCs for a proposed maximum aggregate offering price of $225,000,000.  In connection with the Prior Registration Statement, the registrant previously paid a registration fee of $8,630 in respect of the Unsold Securities.  Pursuant to Rule 415(a)(6) under the Securities Act, the filing fee of $8,630 previously paid by the registrant relating to the Unsold Securities included on this Registration Statement will continue to be applied to such Unsold Securities.  Accordingly, the “Amount of registration fee” above reflects only the filing fee attributable to the $150,000,000 of new securities registered on this Registration Statement. To the extent that, after the filing date hereof and prior to the effectiveness of this Registration Statement, the registrant sells any Unsold Securities pursuant to the Prior Registration Statement, the registrant will identify in a pre-effective amendment to this Registration Statement the updated amount of Unsold Securities from the Prior Registration Statement to be included in this Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415(a)(6) and the updated amount of any new securities to be registered on this Registration Statement. Pursuant to Rule 415(a)(6) under the Securities Act, the offering of the Unsold Securities under the Prior Registration Statement will be deemed terminated as of the date of effectiveness of this Registration Statement.

THE REGISTRANT HEREBY AMENDS THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON SUCH DATE OR DATES AS MAY BE NECESSARY TO DELAY ITS EFFECTIVE DATE UNTIL THE REGISTRANT SHALL FILE A FURTHER AMENDMENT WHICH SPECIFICALLY STATES THAT THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT SHALL THEREAFTER BECOME EFFECTIVE IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 8(a) OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR UNTIL THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE ON SUCH DATE AS THE COMMISSION, ACTING PURSUANT TO SAID SECTION 8(a), MAY DETERMINE.

ABOUT AMERICAAMERICA FIRST MULTIFAMILYMULTIFAMILY INVESTORS, L.P.

Our Business

America First Multifamily Investors, L.P.The Partnership was formed in 1998 under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act (“Delaware LP Act”) for the primary purpose of acquiring a portfolio of mortgage revenue bonds (“MRBs”) that are issued by state and local housing authorities to provide construction and/or permanent financing for affordable multifamily and student housing, (collectively “Residential Properties”)seniors housing and commercial propertiesproperties.  We also invest in their market areas.governmental issuer loans (“GILs”), which are similar to MRBs, to provide construction financing for affordable multifamily properties.  We expect and believe the interest received on these bondsour MRBs and GILs is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes. WeThe Partnership may also invest in other types of securities that may or may not be secured by real estate and may make property loans to multifamily residential properties which may or may not be financed by MRBs or GILs held by the Partnership, to the extent permitted under the terms of the Partnership’s First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership dated September 15, 2015, as further amended (the “Partnership Agreement”). In addition, we may acquire interests in multifamily, student, and senior citizen residential properties.properties (“MF Properties”). 

We havealso make noncontrolling equity investments in unconsolidated entities for the construction, stabilization, and ultimate sale of market-rate multifamily properties. We are entitled to distributions if, and when, cash is available for distribution either through operations, a refinance or a sale of the property. 

Our general partner is America First Capital Associates Limited Partnership Two (“AFCA 2” or the “General Partner”).  The general partner of AFCA 2 is Greystone AF Manager LLC (“Greystone Manager”), which is an affiliate of Greystone & Co. II LLC (collectively with its affiliates, “Greystone”).  Greystone is a real estate lending, investment, and advisory company with an established reputation as a leader in multifamily and healthcare finance, having ranked as a top Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”), Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”), and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) lender in these sectors.

We are a partnership for federal income tax purposes.  This means that we do not pay federal income taxes on our income.  Instead, all of our profits and losses are allocated to our partners, including the holders of BUCs, under the terms of our Partnership Agreement.  See “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” beginning on page 34.

Our initial limited partner, which has the obligation to perform certain actions on behalf of the BUC holders under the Partnership Agreement, is Greystone ILP, Inc., a Delaware corporation.  The BUCs represent assignments by the initial limited partner of its rights and obligations as a limited partner to outside third party investors.

The Partnership has been in operation since 1998 and own 76 MRBswill continue in existence until dissolved in accordance with an aggregate outstanding principal amountthe terms of approximately $681.4 million as of September 30, 2019.  The majority of these MRBs were issued by state and local housing authorities in order to provide construction and/or permanent financing for 66 Residential Properties containing a total of 10,871 rental units located in 13 states in the United States.  Each MRB for the Residential Properties is secured by a mortgage or deed of trust.  One MRB is secured by a mortgage on the ground, facilities, and equipment of a commercial ancillary health care facility in Tennessee.  Each of the MRBs provides for interest payable at a fixed rate on a periodic basis.  

We directly own 13 MRBs, while seven MRBs are owned by ATAX TEBS I, LLC; 12 MRBs are owned by ATAX TEBS II, LLC; seven MRBs are owned by ATAX TEBS III, LLC; and 25 MRBs are owned by ATAX TEBS IV, LLC.  Each of these entities is a special purpose entity owned and controlled by the Partnership to facilitate Tax Exempt Bond Securitization (“TEBS”) Financings with Freddie Mac.  One MRB is securitized and held by Deutsche Bank AG (“Deutsche Bank”) in a Term Tender Option Bond (“Term TOB”) facility. Five MRBs are securitized and held by Deutsche Bank in Term A/B Trust financing facilities. One MRB is securitized and held by Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. (“Morgan Stanley”) in a Term TOB facility. Five MRBs are securitized and held by Mizuho Capital Markets, LLC (“Mizuho”) in Tender Option Bond (“TOB”) Trust financing facilities. During 2019, we strategically diversified our lending relationships. We closed on a new Term TOB trust financing structure with Morgan Stanley in May 2019 and new TOB trust financing structures with Mizuho beginning in July 2019. The addition of these two investment banking relationships will further diversify our access to debt financing arrangements.

The ability of the Residential Properties and the commercial property that collateralize our MRBs to make payments of interest is a function of the net cash flow generated by these properties.  Net cash flow from a multifamily or student residential property depends on the rental and occupancy rates of the property and the level of operating expenses.  Occupancy rates and rents are directly affected by the supply of, and demand for, apartments in the market areas in which a property is located.  This, in turn, is affected by several factors such as the requirement that a certain percentage of the rental units be set aside for tenants who qualify as persons of low to moderate income, local or national economic conditions, and the amount of new apartment construction and interest rates on single-family mortgage loans.  Net cash flow from the commercial property depends on the number of cancer patients which utilize the cancer therapy center and the ability to hire and retain key employees to provide the related cancer treatment.  In addition, factors such as government regulation, inflation, real estate and other taxes, labor problems, and natural disasters can affect the economic operations of the properties which collateralize the MRBs. The return we realize from our investments in MRBs depends upon the economic performance of the Residential Properties and the commercial property which collateralize these MRBs. We may be in competition with other residential rental properties and commercial properties located in the same geographic areas as the properties financed with our MRBs.

We may also make taxable property loans to Residential Properties which are financed by MRBs held by us.  We do this to provide financing for capital improvements at these properties or to otherwise support property operations when we determine it is in our best long-term interest.  We may also invest in other types of securities that may or may not be secured by real estate to the extent allowed by the Partnership Agreement.  Our principal executive office is located at 14301 FNB Parkway, Suite 211, Omaha, NE, 68154, and our telephone number is (402) 952-1235.

We also relymaintain a website at www.ataxfund.com, where certain information about us is available.  The information found on, or accessible through, our website is not incorporated into, and does not form a part of, this prospectus or any other report or document we file with or furnish to the SEC.

For additional information about our business, properties, and financial condition, please refer to the documents cited in “Where You Can Find More Information.”

Recent Developments

On November 4, 2022, the Board of Managers (the “Board”) of Greystone Manager approved the transfer of the listing of the Partnership’s BUCs from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) to the NYSE.  In addition, on November 7, 2022, the Partnership announced that it intends to change its name to Greystone Housing Impact Investors LP.  The Partnership anticipates the name change will become effective upon the commencement of the


an exemptionlisting of the BUCs on the NYSE.  In connection with the foregoing, on November 22, 2022, we announced the BUCs have been approved for listing on the NYSE, and we have provided written notice to the NASDAQ of our intention to voluntarily withdraw the listing of the BUCs from registrationthe NASDAQ.  We expect our BUCs will begin to trade on the NYSE on December 5, 2022 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which has certain restrictions on the types and amounts of securities owned by the Partnership. 

Under the Partnership Agreement, any tax-exempt investments, other than MRBs, that are not secured by a direct or indirect interest in a property must be rated in one of the four highest rating categories by at least one nationally recognized securities rating agency.  The Partnership’s acquisition of any tax-exempt investment or other investment may not cause the aggregate book value of such investments to exceed 25% of our assets at the time of acquisition.  As of September 30, 2019, the Partnership owned three Public Housing Capital Fund Trusts Certificates (“PHC Certificates”).  The PHC Certificates had an aggregate outstanding principal amount of approximately $44.9 million as of September 30, 2019. The PHC Certificates represent beneficial interests in three trusts (“PHC Trusts”). The PHC Certificates consist of custodial receipts evidencing loans made to numerous public housing authorities.  Principal and interest on these loans are payable by the respective public housing authorities out of annual appropriations to the public housing authorities by HUD under HUD’s Capital Fund Program established under the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998 (the “Capital Fund Program”). The PHC Trusts have a first lien on these annual Capital Fund Program payments to secure the public housing authorities’ respective obligations to pay principal and interest on their loans. The PHC Certificates are securitized into three separate TOB Trust financing facilities with Mizuho.

As of September 30, 2019, we owned membership interests in nine unconsolidated entities (“Vantage Properties”).  Our investments in the Vantage Properties are used to construct multifamily real estate properties.  We do not have controlling interests in the Vantage Properties and account for the membership interests under the equity method of accounting.  We earn a return on our membership interests accruing immediately on our contributed capital, which is guaranteed, up to a specified amount, through the second anniversary of construction completion by an unrelated third party.  The limited membership interests entitle us to shares of certain cash flows generated by the Vantage Properties from operations and upon the occurrence of certain capital transactions, such as a refinancing or sale.

We may acquire ownership interests in multifamily and student apartment properties (“MF Properties”).  As of September 30, 2019, we owned two MF Properties containing 859 rental units located in Nebraska and California. In addition, we may acquire real estate securing our MRBs through foreclosure in the event of a default. Net cash flow of our MF Properties depends on the rental and occupancy rates of the property and the level of operating expenses. Occupancy rates and rents are directly affected by the supply of, and demand for, apartments in the market areas in which a property is located. This, in turn, is affected by several factors such as local or national economic conditions, and the amount of new apartment construction and interest rates on single-family mortgage loans, government regulation, inflation, real estate and other taxes, labor problems, and natural disasters. We operate our MF Properties until the opportunity arises to sell the properties at what we believe is their optimal fair value or to position ourselves for future investments in MRBs issued to finance these properties.symbol “GHI.”

Our primary business objectives are acquiring, holding, selling, and otherwise dealing with aobjective is to manage our portfolio of MRBs which have been issued to provide construction and/or permanent financing for affordable multifamily, student housing, and commercial properties.  We are pursuing a business strategy of acquiring additional MRBs and other investments on a leveraged basis.  We expect and believe the interest earned on these MRBs is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes.  We seek to achieve the following:

Generate attractive, risk-adjusted total returns for our investment growth strategy by investing in additional MRBsUnitholders;

Create streams of recurring income to support regular cash distributions to Unitholders;

Pass through tax-advantaged income to Unitholders;

Generate income from capital gains on asset dispositions;

Use leverage effectively to increase returns on debt investments; and other investments as permitted by our

Preserve and protect Partnership Agreement, taking advantage of financing structures available in the securities market, and entering into interest rate risk management instruments.assets.

We are pursuing a business strategy of acquiring additional MRBs, GILs and other investments, as permitted by the Partnership Agreement, on a leveraged basis to (i) increaseachieve our business objectives. In allocating our capital and executing our strategy, we seek to balance the amountrisks of interest availableowning specific investments with the earnings opportunity on the investments.

We believe there continues to be significant unmet demand for distributionaffordable multifamily and senior citizen residential housing in the United States. Government programs that provide direct rental support to our Unitholders;residents have not kept up with demand. Therefore, investment programs such as those pursued by the Partnership, which promote private sector development and (ii) reduce risksupport for affordable housing through interest rate hedging.MRBs, GILs, tax credits and grant funding to developers, have become more prominent. The types of MRBs and GILs in which we invest offer developers of affordable housing a low-cost source of construction and/or permanent debt financing. We may finance the acquisition ofplan to continue to invest in additional MRBs and GILs issued to finance affordable multifamily and senior residential rental housing properties.

We continue to evaluate opportunities for MRB investments to fund senior citizen housing projects or skilled nursing facilities issued as private activity or 501(c)(3) bonds similar in legal structure to those issued for traditional affordable multifamily housing projects. We will continue to leverage the expertise of Greystone and other investments throughreputable third parties in evaluating independent living, assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing properties prior to our MRB acquisitions. During 2021, we acquired our first senior citizen housing MRB, Meadow Valley, that will finance the reinvestmentconstruction and stabilization of cash flows, the issuance of additional BUCs a combined independent living, assisted living and memory care facility in Traverse City, MI.

We continually assess opportunities to expand and/or Series A Preferred Units, lines of credit, or securitization financing usingreposition our existing portfolio of MRBs and other investments.GILs. Our current operating policy is to use securitizations or other forms of leverage which will not exceed 75% of the total Partnership assets. The Partnership assets are defined as the cost adjusted for paydowns for MRBs, PHC Certificates, property loans, and taxable MRBs, and initial cost for deferred financing costs and MF Properties.  


We continually assess opportunities to reposition our existing portfolio of MRBs.  The principal objective of this assessment is to improve the quality and performance of our MRB portfolio of MRBs and GILs and, ultimately, increase the amount of cash available for distribution to our Unitholders. In some cases,certain circumstances, we may electallow the borrowers of our MRBs to redeem selectedthe MRBs that have experienced significant appreciation.  Throughprior to the selective redemption of the MRBs,final maturity date. Such MRB redemptions will usually require a sale or refinancing of the underlying property will be required.property. We may also elect to sell MRBs that have experienced significant appreciation in value. In other cases, we may elect to sell MRBs on properties that are in stagnant or declining real estate markets. The proceeds received from these transactions wouldwill be redeployed into other investments consistent with our investment objectives. We anticipate holding our GILs until maturity as the terms are typically for two to four years and have defined forward purchase commitments from Freddie Mac, acting through a servicer.


We will also continue to make strategic equity investments in market-rate multifamily residential properties (“JV Equity Investments”) through noncontrolling membership interests in unconsolidated entities. We believe such equity investments diversify our investment portfolio while also providing attractive risk-adjusted returns for our Unitholders.

Financing Strategy

We finance our assets with what we believe to be a prudent amount of leverage, the level of which varies from time to time based upon the characteristics of our portfolio, availability of financing, and market conditions. This leverage strategy allows us to generate enhanced returns and lowers our net capital investment, allowing us to make additional investments. We currently obtain leverage on our investments and assets through:

Advances on our secured line of credit facilities (“LOCs”) with BankUnited, N.A. and Bankers Trust Company;

Tax-Exempt Bond Securitization (“TEBS”) programs with Freddie Mac;

Tender Option Bond (“TOB”) Trust securitizations with Mizuho Capital Markets (“Mizuho”) and Barclays Bank PLC (“Barclays”);

A Term TOB Trust securitization with Morgan Stanley;

Secured notes (“Secured Notes”) issued to Mizuho; and

Mortgages payable associated with our MF Properties.

We may utilize other types of secured or unsecured borrowings in the future, including more complex financing structures and diversification of our leverage sources and counterparties.

We refer to our TEBS, TOB Trust, and Term TOB Trust securitizations and our Secured Notes as our debt financings. The TEBS, TOB Trust and Term TOB Trust securitizations are consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for financial reporting purposes. These arrangements are structured such that we transfer our assets to an entity, such as a trust or special purpose entity, which then issues senior and residual beneficial interests. The senior beneficial interests are sold to third-party investors in exchange for debt proceeds. We retain the residual beneficial interest which entitles us to certain rights to the securitized assets and to residual cash proceeds. We generally structure our debt financings such that principal, interest, and any trust expenses are payable from the cash flows of the secured assets and we are generally entitled to all residual cash flows for our general use. As the residual interest holder, we may be required to make certain payments or contribute certain assets to the VIEs if certain events occur. Such events include, but are not limited to, a downgrade in the investment rating of the senior securities issued by the VIEs, a ratings downgrade of the liquidity provider for the VIEs, increases in short term interest rates beyond pre-set maximums, an inability to re-market the senior securities or an inability to obtain liquidity support for the senior securities. If such an event occurs in an individual VIE, we may be required to deleverage the VIE by repurchasing some or all of the senior securities. Otherwise, the underlying collateral will be sold and, if the proceeds are not sufficient to pay the principal amount of the senior securities plus accrued interest and other trust expenses, the Partnership will be required to fund any such shortfall. If we do not fund the shortfall, the default and liquidation provisions will be invoked against us. For each TEBS securitization, our shortfall funding is limited to the stated amount of our residual interest.

The TOB Trusts with Mizuho and Barclays are subject to covenants and requirements under the respective master agreements, primarily related to maintenance of certain levels of partners’ capital, maximum leverage, and the continued listing of our BUCs on a national securities exchange. The TOB Trusts are also subject to margin collateral requirements. We may also be required to post collateral, typically in cash, related to the TOB Trusts with Mizuho and Barclays. The amount of collateral posting required is dependent on the aggregate valuation of the


underlying MRBs, taxable MRBs, GILs, taxable GILs and property loans in relation to thresholds set by Mizuho and Barclays.

The willingness of leverage providers to extend financing is dependent on various factors such as their underwriting standards, regulatory requirements, available lending capacity, and existing credit exposure to the Partnership. An inability to access debt financing at an acceptable cost may result in adverse effects on our financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to finance additional acquisitions of MRBs, GILs or other investments through additional debt financings. Although the consequences of market and economic conditions and their impact on our ability to pursue our plan to grow through investments in additional MRBs and GILs are not fully known, we do not anticipate that our existing assets will be adversely affected in the long-term. 

We set target constraints for each type of financing utilized by us. Those constraints are dependent upon several factors, including the assets being leveraged, the tenor of the leverage program, whether the financing is subject to margin or collateral calls, and the liquidity and marketability of the financed collateral. We use target constraints for each type of financing to manage to an overall maximum 75% leverage level (the “Leverage Ratio”), as established by the Board of Managers of Greystone Manager. The Board of Managers of Greystone Manager retains the right to change the maximum Leverage Ratio in the future based on the consideration of factors the Board of Managers considers relevant. We calculate our Leverage Ratio as total outstanding debt divided by total assets using cost adjusted for paydowns for MRBs, GILs, property loans, taxable MRBs and taxable GILs, and initial cost for deferred financing costs and real estate assets. As of September 30, 2022, our overall Leverage Ratio was approximately 70%.

We actively manage both our fixed and variable rate debt financings and our exposure to changes in market interest rates. Certain leverage sources, such as our TOB Trusts, Secured Notes and one TEBS financing, currently bear interest at variable rates. We may enter into derivative instruments in connection with our risk management activities to protect against rising interest rates, which may include interest rate caps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, swaptions, futures, options or other available hedging instruments. When possible, we will obtain variable-rate debt financing for our variable-rate investment assets such that we are at least partially hedged against rising interest rates without the need for separate derivative instruments.

In addition to leverage, we may obtain additional capital through the issuance of one or more additional series of preferred units and/or BUCs. We may issue additional series of preferred equity in private placements or public offerings which are registered with the SEC.

Reportable Segments

As of September 30, 2022, we have four reportable segments: (1) Affordable Multifamily MRB Investments, (2) Seniors and Skilled Nursing MRB Investments, (3) Market-Rate Joint Venture Investments, and (4) MF Properties.  The Partnership separately reports its consolidation and elimination information because it does not allocate certain items to the segments.

Investment Types

Mortgage Revenue Bonds (“MRBs”)

We invest in MRBs that are issued by state and local governments, their agencies, and authorities to finance the construction or acquisition and rehabilitation of income-producing multifamily rental properties. An MRB does not constitute an obligation of any state or local government, agency or authority and no state or local government, agency or authority is liable on them, nor is the taxing power of any state or local government pledged to the payment of principal or interest on an MRB.  An MRB is a non-recourse obligation of the property owner. Each MRB is collateralized by a mortgage on all real and personal property of the secured property. The sole source of the funds to pay principal and interest on an MRB is the net cash flow or the sale or refinancing proceeds from the secured property. We may commit to provide funding for MRBs on a draw-down basis during construction and/or rehabilitation of the secured property.


We expect toand believe that the interest received on our MRBs is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes. We primarily invest primarily in MRBs issuedthat are senior obligations of the secured properties, though we may also invest in subordinate MRBs. The MRBs predominantly bear interest at fixed interest rates and require regular principal and interest payments on either a monthly or semi-annual basis. The majority of our MRBs have initial contractual terms of 15 years or more. MRBs may have optional call dates that may be exercised by the borrower or the Partnership that are earlier than the contractual maturity at either par or premiums to provide affordablepar.

As of September 30, 2022, we own 74 MRBs with an aggregate outstanding principal amount of approximately $688 million. Our MRBs are owned either directly by the Partnership or by consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”) associated with our debt financing facilities. Our 74 MRBs are secured by 65 multifamily residential properties containing a total of 10,491 rental units located in 13 states in the United States. One MRB is secured by a mortgage on the ground, facilities, and equipment of a to-be-constructed seniors housing student housing projects, and commercial property.  property in Michigan.

The four basic types of MRBs which we may acquire as investments are as follows:

Private activity bonds issued under Section 142(d) of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”);

Bonds issued under Section 145 of the IRC on behalf of not-for-profit entities qualified under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRC;

Essential function bonds issued by a public instrumentality to finance a multifamily residential property owned by such instrumentality; and

Existing “80/20 bonds” that were issued under Section 103(b)(4)(A) of the IRC.

 

1.

Private activity bonds issued under Section 142(d) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

2.

Bonds issued under Section 145 of the Code by not-for-profit entities qualified under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code;

3.

Essential function bonds issued by a public instrumentality to finance a multifamily residential property owned by such instrumentality; and

4.

Existing “80/20 bonds” that were issued under Section 103(b)(4)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954.

Each of these structures permitspermit the issuance of MRBs under the IRC to finance the construction or acquisition and rehabilitation of affordable rental housing or other not-for-profit commercial property. Under applicable Treasury Regulations, any affordable multifamily residential project financed with tax-exempt MRBs that are purportedly tax-exempt(other than essential function bonds as described in the third bullet above) must set aside a percentage of its total rental units for occupancy by tenants whose incomes do not exceed stated percentages of the median income in the local area. In each case, the balance of theThose rental units inof the multifamily residential project not subject to tenant income restrictions may be rented at market rates (unless there are restrictions otherwise restrictedimposed by local housing authorities)the bond issuer or a governmental entity). With respect to private activity bonds issued under Section 142(d) of the Code,IRC, the owner of the multifamily residential project may elect, at the time the MRBs are issued, whether to set aside a minimum of 20% of the units for tenants making less than 50% of area median income (as adjusted for household size) or 40% of the units for tenants making less than 60% of the area median income (as adjusted for household size). The MRBs that were secured by Residential Properties issued prior to the Tax Reform Act of 1986 (so called “80/20” bonds) require that 20% of the rental units be set aside for tenants whose income does not exceed 80% of the area median income, without adjustment for household size. State and local housing authorities may require additional tenant income or rent restrictions abovemore restrictive than those required by Treasury Regulations. There are no Treasury Regulations related to MRBs that are collateralized by commercial property.

We expect that many of the private activity housing MRBs that we evaluate for acquisition will be issued in conjunction with the syndication of LIHTCs by the owner of the financed multifamily residential project. Additionally, to facilitate our investment strategy of acquiring additional MRBs, we may acquire ownership positions in the MF Properties. In many cases, we expect to acquire MRBs on these MF Properties at the time of a restructuring of the MF Property’s ownership. Such restructuring may involve the syndication of LIHTCs in conjunction with property rehabilitation.

Additionally, we are continuing to pursue a business strategy of making equity investments in market-rate multifamily residential properties through non-controlling membership interests in unconsolidated entities.  Our investments in unconsolidated entities are used to construct market-rate, multifamily real estate properties.

Investment Types

Mortgage Revenue Bonds.  We invest in MRBs that are secured by a mortgage or deed of trust on Residential Properties and a commercial property.  Each of these MRBs bears interest at a fixed annual rate.  The amount of interest earned by us from our investment in MRBs is a function of the net cash flow generated by the


Residential Properties and the commercial property whichcollateralize the MRBs. Net cash flow from a residential property depends on the rental and occupancy rates of the property and the level of operating expenses.  Net cash flow from the commercial property depends on the number of cancer patients that utilize the cancer therapy center and the ability to hire and retain key employees to provide the related cancer treatment.

Other Securities. We may invest in other types of securities that may or may not be secured by real estate, as permitted under the terms of the Partnership Agreement.  Other tax-exempt investments must be rated in one of the four highest rating categories by at least one nationally recognized securities rating agency. These tax-exempt investments and other securities may not represent, in the aggregate, more than 25% of our assets at the time of acquisition.

PHC Certificates. The PHC Certificates represent beneficial interests in three PHC Trusts. The PHC Trusts consist of custodial receipts evidencing loans made to numerous public housing authorities. Principal and interest on these loans are payable by the respective public housing authorities out of annual appropriations to be made to the public housing authorities by HUD under HUD’s Capital Fund Program. The PHC Trusts have a first lien on these annual Capital Fund Program payments to secure the public housing authorities’ respective obligations to pay principal and interest on their loans. The PHC Certificates rating by Standard & Poor’s were investment grade as of September 30, 2019.

Other Investments.  We also have a reportable segment consisting of our ownership of ATAX Vantage Holdings, LLC, which, as of September 30, 2019, had non-controlling investments in the Vantage Properties.

Property Loans. We may also make taxable property loans which are secured by Residential Properties that are financed by MRBs and taxable property loans which are unsecured.

MF Properties.  We may acquire controlling interests in multifamily, student or senior citizen residential properties. We plan to operate the MF Properties to position ourselves for a future investment in MRBs issued to finance the acquisition and/or rehabilitation of the propertyowned by a new owner or until the opportunity arises to sell the properties at what we believe is their optimal fair value.non-profit sponsor.

Investment Opportunities and Business Challenges

There continues to be a significant unmet demand for affordable multifamily, student, and senior citizen residential housing in the United States.  HUD reports that there is a high demand for quality affordable housing.  The types of MRBs in which we invest offer developers of affordable housing a low-cost source of construction and permanent debt financing for these types of properties.  Investors purchase these MRBs because the interest income paid on these bonds is expected to be exempt from federal income taxation.

The demand for affordable housing by qualified potential residents whose income does not exceed 50-60% of the area median income continuesborrowers associated with our MRBs are either syndicated partnerships formed to increase.  Government programs that provide direct rental support to residents has not kept up with the demand, therefore programs that support private sector development and support for affordable housing through MRBs, tax credits, and grant funding to developers have become more prominent.

In addition to MRBs, the federal government promotes affordable housing using LIHTCs for affordable multifamily rental housing.  The syndication and salereceive allocations of LIHTCs along with MRB financing isor not-for-profit entities. LIHTC eligible projects are attractive to developers of affordable housing because it helps them raise equity and debt financing for their projects.financing. Under thisthe LIHTC program, developers that receive an allocation of private activity bonds will also receive an allocation of federal LIHTCs as a method to encourage the development of affordable multifamily housing. We do not invest in LIHTCs but are attracted to MRBs that are issued in association with federal LIHTC syndicationsallocations because in order tothey bear interest that we expect and believe is exempt from federal income taxes.  To be eligible for federal LIHTCs, a property must either be newly constructed or substantially rehabilitated, and therefore, may be less likely to become functionally obsolete in the near term thanas compared to an older property. There are various requirements to be eligible for federal LIHTCs, including rent and tenant income restrictions.  In general,restrictions, which vary by property. Our borrowers that are owned by not-for-profit entities typically have missions to provide affordable multifamily rental units to underserved populations in their market areas. The affordable housing properties securing 501(c)(3) bonds also must comply with the IRS safe harbors for tenant incomes and rents.



Governmental Issuer Loans (“GILs”)

We invest in GILs that are issued by state or local governmental authorities to finance the construction of affordable multifamily properties. A GIL does not constitute an obligation of any state or local government, agency or authority and no state or local government, agency or authority is liable for them, nor is the taxing power of any state or local government pledged to the payment of principal or interest on a GIL. Each GIL is secured by a mortgage on all real and personal property of the secured property. The GILs may share first mortgage lien positions with taxable property loans and/or taxable GILs also owned by the Partnership. Sources of the funds to pay principal and interest on a GIL consist of the net cash flow or the sale or refinancing proceeds from the secured property and limited-to-full payment guarantees provided by affiliates of the GIL’s borrower. We may commit to provide funding for GILs on a draw-down basis during construction of the secured properties.

We expect and believe the interest received on our GILs is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The GILs are senior obligations of the secured properties and bear interest at variable interest rates. The GILs have initial terms of two to four years, though the borrower may prepay all amounts due at any time without penalty. At the closing of each GIL, Freddie Mac, through a servicer, has forward committed to purchase the GIL at maturity at par if the property owner must electhas reached stabilization and other conditions are met. As of September 30, 2022, an affiliate of Greystone, Greystone Servicing Company LLC, has provided a forward commitment to purchase 11 of the Partnership’s GILs. Greystone Servicing Company LLC will then immediately sell the GILs to Freddie Mac pursuant to a financing commitment between Greystone Servicing Company LLC and Freddie Mac.

As of September 30, 2022, we own 13 GILs with an aggregate outstanding principal amount of approximately $281 million. Our GILs are owned by our consolidated VIEs associated with our debt financing facilities. Such GILs are related to 13 affordable multifamily properties containing a total of 2,419 rental units located in six states in the United States.

The GILs have been issued under Section 142(d) of the IRC and are subject to the same set aside either 40% or more of the property’s residential units for occupancy by households whoseand tenant income is 60% or less (adjusted for family size) of the area median gross income or 20% or more of the property’s residential units for occupancy by households whose income is 50% or less (adjusted for family


size) of the area median gross income.  These units remain subject to these set aside requirements for a minimum of 30 years.

The inability to access debt financing may result in adverse effects on our financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to finance additional acquisitions of MRBs or other investments through either additional equity or debt financing. Although the consequences of market and economic conditions and their impact on our ability to pursue our plan to grow through investments in additional housing bonds are not fully known, we do not anticipate that our existing assets will be adversely affectedrestrictions noted in the long-term. In addition, the Residential Properties and MF Properties which have not reached stabilization (which is 90% occupancy for 90 days and the achievement“Mortgage Revenue Bonds” description above. The borrowers associated with our GILs are syndicated partnerships formed to receive allocations of 1.15 times debt service coverage ratio on amortizing debt service during the period) will resultLIHTCs.

The limitedWe do not have controlling interests in the JV Equity Investments and account for the membership interests entitle ususing the equity method of accounting. Our joint venture equity investments are passive in nature. Operational oversight of each property is controlled by our joint venture partner according to sharesthe property’s operating agreement. All projects are managed by a property management company affiliated with our joint venture partner. Decisions on when to sell an individual property are made by our joint venture partner based on its view of certain cash flows generated by the Vantage Propertieslocal market conditions and current leasing trends. 

An affiliate of our joint venture partner provides a guarantee of our preferred return on our equity investment through a date approximately five years after commencement of construction. We account for our joint venture equity investments using the equity method and recognize our preferred return during the hold period. Upon the sale of a property, we will recognize any previously unrecognized preferred return and a gain on sale based on sales proceeds distributed to us. Historically, the majority of our income from operationsour joint venture equity investments is recognized at the time of sale. As a result, we may experience significant income recognition in those quarters when a property is sold and uponour equity investment is redeemed. As of September 30, 2022, we owned membership interests in ten JV Equity Investments located in three states in the occurrenceUnited States. Seven of certain capital transactions, suchthe ten JV Equity Investments are located in Texas. One JV Equity Investment in San Marcos, Texas is reported as a refinancingconsolidated VIE.

MF Properties

issued to finance the acquisition and/or rehabilitation of the properties by new owners or until the opportunity arises to sell the MF Properties at what we believe is their optimal fair value.  

As of September 30, 2022, we owned two MF Properties containing a total of 859 rental units located in Nebraska and California.

Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner has full, complete, and exclusive authority to manage and control the business affairs of the Partnership.  Such authority specifically includes, but is not limited to, the power to (i) acquire, hold, refund, reissue, remarket, securitize, transfer, foreclose upon, sell or otherwise deal with the investments of the Partnership, (ii) issue additional Units and other Partnership securities, borrow money, and issue evidences of indebtedness, (iii) apply the proceeds from the sale or the issuance of


additional Units or other Partnership securities to the acquisition of additional MRBs (and associated taxable mortgages) and other types of investments meeting the Partnership’s investment criteria, (iv) issue options, warrants, rights, and other equity instruments relating to Units under employee benefit plans and executive compensation plans maintained or sponsored by the Partnership and its affiliates, (v) issue Partnership securities in one or more classes or series with such designations, preferences, rights, powers, and duties, which may be senior to existing classes and series of Partnership securities, including BUCs, and (vi) engage in spin-offs and other similar transactions, and otherwise transfer or dispose of Partnership assets pursuant to such transactions.  The Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner and its affiliates may and shall have the right to provide goods and


services to the Partnership subject to certain conditions.  The Partnership Agreement also imposes certain limitations on the authority of the General Partner, including restrictions on the ability of the General Partner to dissolve the Partnership without the consent of a majority in interest of the limited partners.

Other than certain limited voting rights discussed under “Voting Rights of Unitholders,” the BUC holders do not have any authority to transact business for, or participate in the management of, the Partnership.  The only recourse available to BUC holders in the event that the General Partner takes actions with respect to the business of the Partnership with which BUC holders do not agree is to vote to remove the General Partner and admit a substitute general partner.  See “Withdrawal or Removal of the General Partner” below.  Holders of Series Athe Existing Preferred Units have no voting rights, except for limited voting rights discussed below under “Voting Rights of Unitholders.”

Change of Management Provisions

The Partnership Agreement contains provisions that are intended to discourage any person or group from attempting to remove the General Partner or otherwise changing the Partnership’s management, and thereby achieve a takeover of the Partnership, without first negotiating such acquisition with the Board of Managers of Greystone.  In this regard, the Partnership Agreement provides that if any person or group (other than the General Partner and its affiliates) acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or more of any class of Partnership securities (including BUCs), that person or group loses voting rights with respect to all of his, her, or its securities and such securities will not be considered “outstanding” for voting or notice purposes, except as required by law.  This loss of voting rights will not apply to any person or group that acquires the securities from the General Partner or its affiliates and any transferees of that person or group approved by the General Partner, or to any person or group who acquires the securities with the prior approval of the Board of Managers of Greystone.

In addition, the Partnership Agreement provides that, under circumstances where the General Partner withdraws without violating the Partnership Agreement or is removed by the BUC holders without cause, the departing General Partner will have the option to require the successor general partner to purchase the general partner interest of the departing General Partner and its general partner distribution rights for their fair market value.  See “– Withdrawal or Removal of the General Partner”Partner below.

Issuance of Partnership Securities

General

As of the date of this prospectus, other than the interest of the General Partner in the Partnership, our only outstanding Partnership securities are the BUCs, the Series A Preferred Units, and the Series AA-1 Preferred Units representing limited partnership interests in the Partnership.  The Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner may cause the Partnership to issue additional Units from time to time on such terms and conditions as it shall determine.  In addition, subject to certain approval rights of the holders of Series Aour Existing Preferred Units for issuances adversely affecting the Series AExisting Preferred Units, the Partnership Agreement authorizes the General Partner to issue additional limited partnership interests and other Partnership securities in one or more classes or series with such designations, preferences, rights, powers, and duties, which may be senior to existing classes and series of Partnership securities, including BUCs, as determined by the General Partner without the approval of Unitholders.

It is possible that we will fund acquisitions of our investments and other business operations through the issuance of additional BUCs, Series A Preferred Units,preferred units, or other equity securities.  The holders of Units do not have a preemptive right to acquire additional BUCs, Series A Preferred Units,preferred units, or other Partnership securities.  All limited partnership


interests issued pursuant to and in accordance with the Partnership Agreement are considered fully paid and non-assessable limited partnership interests in the Partnership.

BUCs

Our BUCs are beneficial unit certificates that represent assignments by the initial limited partner of its entire limited partner interest in the Partnership. Although BUC holders will not be limited partners of the Partnership and have no right to be admitted as limited partners, they will be bound by the terms of the Partnership Agreement and will be entitled to the same economic benefits, including the same share of income, gains, losses, deductions, credits, and cash distributions, as if they were limited partners of the Partnership.

The BUCs are issued in registered form only and, except as noted below, are freely transferable.  The BUCs are currently listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “ATAX.”  On November 22, 2022, we announced the BUCs have been approved for listing on the NYSE, and we have provided written notice to the NASDAQ of our intention to voluntarily withdraw the listing of the BUCs from the NASDAQ.  In connection with the listing of the BUCs on the NYSE, we will change our name to Greystone Housing Impact Investors LP.  We expect our BUCs will begin to trade on the NYSE on December 5, 2022 under the symbol “GHI.”  

A purchaser of BUCs will be recognized as a BUC holder for all purposes on the books and records of the Partnership on the day on which the General Partner (or other transfer agent appointed by the General Partner) receives satisfactory evidence of the transfer of the BUCs.  All BUC holder rights, including voting rights, rights to receive distributions, and rights to receive reports, and all allocations in respect of BUC holders, including allocations of income and expenses, will vest in, and be allocable to, BUC holders as of the close of business on such day.  American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, of New York, New York has been appointed by the General Partner to act as the registrar and transfer agent for the BUCs.

In addition, the Partnership Agreement grants the General Partner the authority to take such action as it deems necessary or appropriate, including action with respect to the manner in which BUCs are being or may be transferred or traded, in order to preserve the status of the Partnership as a partnership for federal income tax purposes or to ensure that limited partners (including BUC holders) will be treated as limited partners for federal income tax purposes.

  

Series A Preferred Units

Holders of the Series A Preferred Units are entitled to receive, when, as, and if declared by the General Partner out of funds legally available for the payment of distributions, non-cumulative cash distributions at the rate of 3.00% per annum of the $10.00 per unit purchase price of the Series A Preferred Units, payable quarterly.  In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Partnership, the holders of the Series A Preferred Units


are entitled to a liquidation preference in connection with their investments in an amount equal to $10.00 per Series A Preferred Unit, plus an amount equal to all distributions declared and unpaid thereon to the date of final distribution.

Upon the sixth anniversary of the closing of the sale of Series A Preferred Units to a holder thereof, and upon each anniversary thereafter, each holder of Series A Preferred Units will have the right to redeem, in whole or in part, the Series A Preferred Units held by such holder at a per unit redemption price equal to $10.00 per unit plus an amount equal to all declared and unpaid distributions.  In addition, for a period of 60 days after any date on which the General Partner determines that the ratio of the aggregate market value of the issued and outstanding BUCs as of the close of business, New York time, on any date to the aggregate value of the issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Units and


Series A-1 Preferred Units, as shown on the Partnership’s financial statements, on that same date has fallen below 1.0 and has remained below 1.0 for a period of 15 consecutive business days, each holder of Series A Preferred Units will have the right, but not the obligation, to cause the Partnership to redeem, in whole or in part, the Series A Preferred Units held by such holder at a per unit redemption price equal to $10.00 per unit plus an amount equal to all declared and unpaid distributions.

The Partnership does not intend in the future to issue any additional units of the currently existing series of preferred units designated as “Series A Preferred Units,” although the Partnership may, in the future, create and issue units of one or more new sub-series of Series A Preferred Units.

Holders of Series A Preferred Units have no voting rights except for limited voting rights relating to issuances of Partnership securities adversely affecting the Series A Preferred Units.

Series A-1 Preferred Units

Upon the sixth anniversary of the closing of a holder’s purchase of Series A-1 Preferred Units by a holder thereof, and upon each anniversary thereafter, each holder of Series A-1 Preferred Units will have the right to redeem, in whole or in part, the Series A-1 Preferred Units held by such holder at a per unit redemption price equal to $10.00 per unit plus an amount equal to all declared and unpaid distributions.  In addition, for a period of 60 days after any date on which the General Partner determines that the ratio of the aggregate market value of the issued and outstanding BUCs as of the close of business, New York time, on any date to the aggregate value of the issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Units and Series A-1 Preferred Units, as shown on the Partnership’s financial statements, on that same date has fallen below 1.0 and has remained below 1.0 for a period of 15 consecutive business days, each holder of Series A-1 Preferred Units will have the right, but not the obligation, to cause the Partnership to redeem, in whole or in part, the Series A-1 Preferred Units held by such holder at a per unit redemption price equal to $10.00 per unit plus an amount equal to all declared and unpaid distributions.

No Series A-1 Preferred Units shall be issued by the Partnership if the sum of the original Series A Preferred Units purchase price for all issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Units, plus the original Series A-1 Preferred Units purchase price for all issued and outstanding Series A-1 Preferred Units, inclusive of the Series A-1 Preferred Units intended to be issued by the Partnership to the purchaser of Series A-1 Preferred Units, will exceed $150,000,000 on the date of issuance.

Holders of Series A-1 Preferred Units will have no voting rights except for limited voting rights relating to issuances of Partnership securities adversely affecting the Series A Preferred Units.

Series B Preferred Units

Holders of the Series B Preferred Units will be entitled to receive, when, as, and if declared by the General Partner out of funds legally available for the payment of distributions, non-cumulative cash distributions at the rate


of 3.40% per annum of the $10.00 per unit purchase price of the Series B Preferred Units, payable quarterly.  In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Partnership, before any payment or distribution of the assets of the Partnership shall be made to or set apart for the holders of any other class or series of limited partnership interest ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Units, the holders of the Series B Preferred Units will be entitled to a liquidation preference in connection with their investments in an amount equal to $10.00 per Series B Preferred Unit, plus an amount equal to all distributions declared and unpaid thereon to the date of final distribution.    

With respect to anticipated quarterly distributions and rights upon liquidation, dissolution, or the winding-up of the Partnership’s affairs, the Series B Preferred Units rank senior to the BUCs and to any other class or series of Partnership interests or securities that is not expressly made senior to or on parity with the Series B Preferred Units, and junior to our Series A Preferred Units, Series A-1 Preferred Units, and any other class or series of Partnership interests or securities expressly designated as ranking senior to the Series B Preferred Units.  The Series B Preferred Units have no stated maturity, are not subject to any sinking fund requirements, and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless repurchased or redeemed by the Partnership.

Holders of Series B Preferred Units will have no voting rights except for limited voting rights relating to issuances of Partnership securities adversely affecting the Series B Preferred Units.

Cash Distributions

General

The Partnership Agreement provides that all Net Interest Income generated by the Partnership that is not contingent interest will be distributed 99% to the limited partners and BUC holders as a class and 1% to the General Partner. During the years ended December 31, 20182021 and 2017,2020, the General Partner received total distributions of Net Interest Income of approximately $166,000$177,800 and $194,000,$191,100, respectively.  In addition, the Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner is entitled to 25% of Net Interest Income representing contingent interest up to a maximum amount equal to 0.9% per annum of the principal amount of all mortgage bonds held by the Partnership, as the case may be.

 

Interest Income of the Partnership includes all cash receipts, except for (i) capital contributions, (ii) Residual Proceeds (defined below), or (iii) the proceeds of any loan or the refinancing of any loan.  “Net Interest Income” of the Partnership means all Interest Income plus any amount released from the Partnership’s reserves for distribution, less expenses and debt service payments and any amount deposited in reserve or used or held for the acquisition of additional investments.

The Partnership Agreement provides that Net Residual Proceeds (whether representing a return of principal or contingent interest) will be distributed 100% to the limited partners and BUC holders as a class, except that 25% of Net Residual Proceeds representing contingent interest will be distributed to the General Partner until it receives a maximum amount per annum (when combined with all distributions to it of Net Interest Income representing contingent interest during the year) equal to 0.9% of the principal amount of the Partnership’s mortgage


bonds.  Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, “Residual Proceeds” means all amounts received by the Partnership upon the sale of any asset or from the repayment of principal of any bond.  “Net Residual Proceeds” means, with respect to any distribution period, all Residual Proceeds received by the Partnership during such distribution period, plus any amounts released from reserves for distribution, less all expenses that are directly attributable to the sale of an asset, amounts used to discharge indebtedness, and any amount deposited in reserve or used or held for the acquisition of investments.  Notwithstanding its authority to invest Residual Proceeds in additional investments, the General Partner does not intend to use this authority to acquire additional investments indefinitely without distributing Net Residual Proceeds to the limited partners and BUC holders.  Rather, it is designed to afford the General Partner the ability to increase the income-generating investments of the Partnership in order to potentially increase the Net Interest Income from, and value of, the Partnership.

The General Partner received total distributions of Net Interest Income representing contingent interest and Net Residual Proceeds of approximately $2.1$2.6 million and $2.0 millionzero during each of the years ended December 31, 20182021 and 2017,2020, respectively.

With respect to the cash available for distribution to the limited partners, and subject to the preferential rights of the holders of any class or series of our Partnership securities ranking senior to the Series A Preferred Units


such securities with respect to distribution rights, holders of Series A Preferred Units and Series A-1 Preferred Units are each entitled to receive, when, as, and if declared by the General Partner out of funds legally available for the payment of distributions, non-cumulative cash distributions at the rate of 3.00% per annum of the $10.00 per unit purchase price of the Series A Preferred Units or Series A-1 Preferred Units, as applicable, payable quarterly, and holders of the Series B Preferred Units are entitled to receive, when, as, and if declared by the General Partner out of funds legally available for the payment of distributions, non-cumulative cash distributions at the rate of 3.40% per annum of the $10.00 per unit purchase price of the Series B Preferred Units, payable quarterly.  The Series A Preferred Units rank senior to our BUCs withWith respect to the payment of distributions, our Units have the following rankings: (i) Series A Preferred Units and Series A-1 Preferred Units, which are on parity to anyeach other, class or series of Partnership interests or securities expressly designated as ranking junior tobut which are senior to; (ii) the Series B Preferred Units, which, along with the Series A Preferred Units and junior to any other class or series of Partnership interests or securities expressly designated as rankingSeries A-1 Preferred Units, are senior to the Series A Preferred Units.  to; (iii) our BUCs.   

Distributions Upon Liquidation

Upon the dissolution of the Partnership, the proceeds from the liquidation of its assets will be first applied to the payment of the obligations and liabilities of the Partnership and the establishment of any reserves therefor as the General Partner determines to be necessary, and then distributed to the partners (including both the General Partner and limited partners) and Unitholders in proportion to, and to the extent of, their respective capital account balances, and then in the same manner as Net Residual Proceeds.  With respect to the liquidation proceeds available for distribution to the limited partners, the holders of the Series Aeach series of Existing Preferred Units are each entitled to a liquidation preference in an amount equal to $10.00 per Series A Preferred Unit,preferred unit, as applicable, plus an amount equal to all distributions declared and unpaid thereon to the date of final distribution.  The Series A Preferred Units rank senior to our BUCs withWith respect to distributions upon liquidation, dissolution, or the winding-up of the Partnership’s affairs, our Units have the following rankings: (i) Series A Preferred Units and Series A-1 Preferred Units, which are on parity to each other, but which are senior to any other class or series of Partnership interests or securities expressly designated as ranking junior toto; (ii) the Series B Preferred Units, which, along with the Series A Preferred Units and junior to any other class or series of Partnership interests or securities expressly designated as rankingSeries A-1 Preferred Units, are senior to the Series A Preferred Units.to; (iii) our BUCs.     

 

Timing of Cash Distributions

The Partnership currently makes quarterly cash distributions to BUC holders.  However, the Partnership Agreement allows the General Partner to elect to make cash distributions on a more or less frequent basis provided that distributions are made at least semiannually.  Regardless of the distribution period selected by the General Partner, cash distributions to BUC holders must be made within 60 days of the end of each such period.  Distributions declared on the Series A Preferred Units, Series A-1 Preferred Units, and Series B Preferred Units are payable quarterly in arrears.  

Allocation of Income and Losses

Income and losses from operations will be allocated 99% to the limited partners and BUC holders as a class and 1% to the General Partner.  Income arising from a sale of or liquidation of the Partnership’s assets will be first


allocated to the General Partner in an amount equal to the Net Residual Proceeds or liquidation proceeds distributed to the General Partner from such transaction, and the balance will be allocated to the limited partners and Unitholders as a class.  Losses from a sale of a property or from a liquidation of the Partnership will be allocated among the partners in the same manner as the Net Residual Proceeds or liquidation proceeds from such transaction are distributed.

Determination of Allocations to Unitholders

Income and losses will be allocated on a monthly basis to the Unitholders of record as of the last day of a month.  If a Unitholder is recognized as the record holder of Units on such date, such Unitholder will be allocated all income and losses for such month.

Cash distributions will be made to the BUC holders of record as of the last day of each distribution period.  If the Partnership recognizes a transfer prior to the end of a distribution period, the transferee will be deemed to be the holder for the entire distribution period and will receive the entire cash distribution for such period.  Accordingly, if the General Partner selects a quarterly or semiannual distribution period, the transferor of BUCs during such a distribution period may be recognized as the record holder of the BUCs at the end of one or more months during such period and be allocated income or losses for such months but not be recognized as the record holder of the BUCs at the end of the period and, therefore, not be entitled to a cash distribution for such period.  


Distributions to the holders of Series A Preferred Units, Series A-1 Preferred Units, and Series B Preferred Units are made quarterly in arrears on the 15th day of the first month of each calendar quarter.

The General Partner retains the right to change the method by which income and losses of the Partnership will be allocated between buyers and sellers of Units during a distribution period based on consultation with tax counsel and accountants.  However, no change may be made in the method of allocation of income or losses without written notice to the Unitholders at least 10 days prior to the proposed effectiveness of such change unless otherwise required by law.

Payments to the General Partner

Fees

In addition to its share of Net Interest Income and Net Residual Proceeds and reimbursement for expenses, the General Partner is entitled to an administrative fee in an amount equal to 0.45% per annum of the principal amount of the MRBs, other investments, and taxable mortgage loans held by the Partnership.  In general, the administrative fee is payable by the owners of the properties financed by the MRBs held by the Partnership, but is subordinate to the payment of all base interest to the Partnership on the bonds.  As of September 30, 2019, one of the MRBs held by the Partnership provided for the payment of this administrative fee to the General Partner by the owner of the financed property.  The General Partner may seek to negotiate the payment of the administrative fee in connection with the acquisition of additional MRBs by the Partnership by the owner of the financed property or by another third party.  However, the Partnership Agreement provides that the administrative fee will be paid directly by the Partnership with respect to any investments for which the administrative fee is not payable by a third party.  In addition, the Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership will pay the administrative fee to the General Partner with respect to any foreclosed mortgage bonds.

Reimbursement of Expenses

In addition to the cash distributions and fee payments to the General Partner described above, the Partnership will reimburse the General Partner or its affiliates on a monthly basis for the actual out-of-pocket costs of direct telephone and travel expenses incurred in connection with the business of the Partnership, direct out-of-pocket fees, expenses, and charges paid to third parties for rendering legal, auditing, accounting, bookkeeping, computer, printing, and public relations services, expenses of preparing and distributing reports to limited partners and BUC holders, an allocable portion of the salaries and fringe benefits of non-officer employees of the general partner of the General Partner, insurance premiums (including premiums for liability insurance that will cover the Partnership and the General Partner), the cost of compliance with all state and federal regulatory requirements and NASDAQstock exchange listing fees and charges, and other payments to third parties for services rendered to the Partnership.  The General Partner will also be reimbursed for any expenses it incurs acting as the partnership representative (or tax matters partner) for tax purposes for the Partnership.  The Partnership will not reimburse the


General Partner or its affiliates for the travel expenses of the president of the general partner of the General Partner or for any items of general overhead.  The Partnership will not reimburse the General Partner or its general partner for any salaries or fringe benefits of any of the executive officers of the general partner of the General Partner.  The annual report to Unitholders is required to itemize the amounts reimbursed to the General Partner and its affiliates.

Payments for Goods and Services

The Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner and its affiliates may provide goods and services to the Partnership.  The provision of any goods and services by the General Partner or its affiliates to the Partnership must be part of their ordinary and ongoing business in which it or they have previously engaged, independent of the activities of the Partnership, and such goods and services shall be reasonable for and necessary to the Partnership, shall actually be furnished to the Partnership, and shall be provided at the lower of the actual cost of such goods or services or the competitive price charged for such goods or services for comparable goods and services by independent parties in the same geographic location.  All goods and services provided by the General Partner or any affiliates must be rendered pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement or a written contract containing a clause allowing termination without penalty on 60 days’ notice to the General Partner by the vote of the majority in interest of the BUC holders.  Any payment made to the General Partner or any affiliate for goods and


services must be fully disclosed to all limited partners and BUC holders.  The General Partner does not currently provide goods and services to the Partnership other than its services as General Partner.  If the Partnership acquires ownership of any property through foreclosure of an MRB, the General Partner or an affiliate may provide property management services for such property and, in such case, the Partnership will pay such party its fees for such services.  Under the Partnership Agreement, such property management fees may not exceed the lesser of (i) the fees charged by unaffiliated property managers in the same geographic area, or (ii) 5% of the gross revenues of the managed property.

Liability of Partners and Unitholders

Under the Delaware LP Act and the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner will be liable to third parties for all general obligations of the Partnership to the extent not paid by the Partnership.  However, the Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner has no liability to the Partnership for any act or omission reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred by the Partnership Agreement and in the best interest of the Partnership.  The Partnership Agreement also provides that, except as otherwise expressly set forth in the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner does not owe any fiduciary duties to the limited partners and BUC holders.  Therefore, Unitholders may have a more limited right of action against the General Partner than they would have absent those limitations in the Partnership Agreement.  The Partnership Agreement also provides for indemnification of the General Partner and its affiliates by the Partnership for certain liabilities that the General Partner and its affiliates may incur in connection with the business of the Partnership; provided that no indemnification will be available to the General Partner and/or its affiliates if there has been a final judgment entered by a court determining that the General Partner’s and/or affiliate’s conduct for which indemnification is requested constitutes fraud, bad faith, gross negligence, or willful misconduct.  To the extent that the provisions of the Partnership Agreement include indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, such provisions are, in the opinion of the SEC, against public policy and, therefore, unenforceable.

No Unitholder will be personally liable for the debts, liabilities, contracts, or any other obligations of the Partnership unless, in addition to the exercise of his or her rights and powers as a Unitholder, he or she takes part in the control of the business of the Partnership.  It should be noted, however, that the Delaware LP Act prohibits a limited partnership from making a distribution that causes the liabilities of the limited partnership to exceed the fair value of its assets.  Any limited partner who receives a distribution knowing that the distribution was made in violation of this provision of the Delaware LP Act is liable to the limited partnership for the amount of the distribution.  This provision of the Delaware LP Act likely applies to Unitholders.  In any event, the Partnership Agreement provides that to the extent our initial limited partner is required to return any distributions or repay any amount by law or pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, each BUC holder who has received any portion of such distributions is required to repay his or her proportionate share of such distribution to our initial limited partner immediately upon notice by the initial limited partner to such BUC holder.  Furthermore, the Partnership Agreement allows the General Partner to withhold future distributions to BUC holders until the amount so withheld equals the


amount required to be returned by the initial limited partner.  Because BUCs are transferable, it is possible that distributions may be withheld from a BUC holder who did not receive the distribution required to be returned.

Voting Rights of Unitholders

The Partnership Agreement provides that the initial limited partner will vote its limited partnership interests as directed by the BUC holders.  Accordingly, except as described below regarding a person or group owning 20% or more of any class of Partnership securities then outstanding, the BUC holders, by vote of a majority in interest of the outstanding BUCs, may:

 

(i)

amend the Partnership Agreement (provided that the concurrence of the General Partner is required for any amendment that modifies the compensation or distributions to which the General Partner is entitled or that affects the duties of the General Partner);

 

(ii)

approve or disapprove the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets in a single transaction (provided that, the General Partner may sell the last property owned by the Partnership without such consent);


 

(iii)

dissolve the Partnership;

 

(iv)

elect a successor general partner; and

 

(v)

terminate an agreement under which the General Partner provides goods and services to the Partnership.

In addition, subject to the provisions of the Partnership Agreement regarding removal of the General Partner (described below), the BUC holders holding at least 662/3% of the outstanding BUCs may remove the General Partner.

Each limited partner and BUC holder that has voting rights under the Partnership Agreement is entitled to cast one vote for each unit of limited partnership interest such person owns.  However, if any person or group (other than the General Partner and its affiliates) acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or more of any class of Partnership securities (including BUCs), that person or group loses voting rights with respect to all of his, her, or its securities and such securities will not be considered “outstanding” for voting or notice purposes, except as required by law.  This loss of voting rights will not apply to any person or group that acquires the Partnership securities from the General Partner or its affiliates and any transferees of that person or group approved by the General Partner, or to any person or group who acquires the securities with the prior approval of the board of managers of the general partner of the General Partner.  

The holders of Series AExisting Preferred Units have no voting rights under the Partnership Agreement, except with respect to any amendment to the Partnership Agreement that would have a material adverse effect on the existing terms of the Series Aapplicable series of Existing Preferred Units and with respect to the creation or issuance of any Partnership securities that are senior to the Series Aany such Existing Preferred Units.  Other than as set forth above, the holders of Series AExisting Preferred Units have no voting rights under the Partnership Agreement on any matter that may come before the BUC holders for a vote.  The approval of any of the matters for which the Series AExisting Preferred Units have voting rights requires the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series Aapplicable series of Existing Preferred Units.  For any matter described in this paragraph for which the Series AExisting Preferred Unit holders are entitled to vote, such holders are entitled to one vote for each Series Asuch Existing Preferred Unit held.

The General Partner may at any time call a meeting of the limited partners and BUC holders, call for a vote without a meeting of the limited partners and BUC holders, or otherwise solicit the consent of the limited partners and BUC holders, and is required to call such a meeting or vote or solicit consents following receipt of a written request therefor signed by 10% or more in interest of the outstanding limited partnership interests.  The Partnership does not intend to hold annual or other periodic meetings of any of the Partnership’s Unitholders.



Reports

Within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year, the General Partner will distribute a report to Unitholders that shall include (i) financial statements of the Partnership for such year that have been audited by the Partnership’s independent public accountant, (ii) a report of the activities of the Partnership during such year, and (iii) a statement (which need not be audited) showing distributions of Net Interest Income and Net Residual Proceeds.  The annual report will also include a detailed statement of the amounts of fees and expense reimbursements paid to the General Partner and its affiliates by the Partnership during the fiscal year.

Within 60 days after the end of the first three quarters of each fiscal year, the General Partner will distribute a report that shall include (i) unaudited financial statements of the Partnership for such quarter, (ii) a report of the activities of the Partnership during such quarter, and (iii) a statement showing distributions of Net Interest Income and Net Residual Proceeds during such quarter.  With respect to both the annual and quarterly reports described above, the filing of the Partnership’s annual and quarterly reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q with the SEC are deemed to satisfy the foregoing report delivery obligations.

The Partnership will also provide Unitholders with a report on Form K-1 or other information required for federal and state income tax purposes within 75 days of the end of each year.


Withdrawal or Removal of the General Partner

The General Partner may not withdraw voluntarily from the Partnership or sell, transfer, or assign all or any portion of its interest in the Partnership unless a substitute general partner has been admitted in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement.  With the consent of a majority in interest of the BUC holders, the General Partner may at any time designate one or more persons as additional general partners, provided that the interests of the limited partners and BUC holders in the Partnership are not reduced thereby.  The designation must meet the conditions set out in the Partnership Agreement and comply with the provisions of the Delaware LP Act with respect to admission of an additional general partner.  In addition to the requirement that the admission of a person as successor or additional general partner have the consent of the majority in interest of the BUC holders, the Partnership Agreement requires, among other things, that (i) such person agree to and execute the Partnership Agreement, and (ii) counsel for the Partnership or the General Partner (or any of the General Partner’s affiliates) renders an opinion that such person’s admission would not result in the loss of limited liability of any limited partner or BUC holder or cause the Partnership or any of its affiliates to be taxed as a corporation or other entity under U.S. federal tax law.

With respect to the removal of the General Partner, the Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner may not be removed unless that removal is approved by a vote of the holders of not less than 662/3% of the outstanding BUCs, including BUCs held by the General Partner and its affiliates, voting together as a single class, and the Partnership receives an opinion of counsel regarding limited liability and tax matters.  Any removal of the General Partner also will be subject to the approval of a successor general partner by the vote of a majority in interest of the outstanding BUCs voting as a single class.

In addition, the Partnership Agreement provides that, under circumstances where the General Partner withdraws without violating the Partnership Agreement or is removed by the BUC holders without cause, the departing General Partner will have the option to require the successor general partner to purchase the general partner interest of the departing General Partner and its general partner distribution rights for their fair market value.  This fair market value will be determined by agreement between the departing General Partner and the successor general partner.  If no such agreement is reached, an independent investment banking firm or other independent expert selected by the departing General Partner and successor general partner will determine the fair market value.  If the departing General Partner and successor general partner cannot agree upon an expert, then an expert chosen by agreement of the experts selected by each of them will determine the fair market value.  If the option described above is not exercised, the departing General Partner’s interest and general partner distribution rights will automatically convert into BUCs equal to the fair market value of those interests as determined by an investment banking firm or other independent expert selected in the manner described above.


The Partnership Agreement also provides that if the General Partner is removed as the Partnership’s general partner under circumstances where cause does not exist and the BUCs held by the General Partner and its affiliates are not voted in favor of that removal, the General Partner will have the right to convert its general partner interest and its general partner distribution rights under the Partnership Agreement into BUCs or receive cash in exchange for those interests from the Partnership. 

Effect of Removal, Bankruptcy, Dissolution, or Withdrawal of the General Partner

In the event of a removal, bankruptcy, dissolution, or withdrawal of the General Partner, it will cease to be the General Partner but will remain liable for obligations arising prior to the time it ceases to act in that role.  The former General Partner’s interest in the Partnership will be converted into a limited partner interest having the same rights to share in the allocations of income and losses of the Partnership and distributions of Net Interest Income, Net Residual Proceeds and cash distributions upon liquidation of the Partnership as it did as General Partner.  Any successor general partner shall have the option, but not the obligation, to acquire all or a portion of the interest of the removed General Partner at its then fair market value.  The Partnership Agreement bases the fair market value of the General Partner’s interest on the present value of its future administrative fees and distributions of Net Interest Income plus any amount that would be paid to the removed General Partner upon an immediate liquidation of the Partnership.  Any disputes over valuation in connection with an option exercised by the successor general partner would be settled by the successor general partner and removed General Partner through arbitration.


Amendments

Amendments to the Partnership Agreement may be proposed by the General Partner or by the limited partners holding 10% or more of the outstanding limited partnership interests.  In order to adopt a proposed amendment, other than the amendments discussed below which may be approved solely by the General Partner, the General Partner must seek approval of the holders of the required number of BUCs to approve the amendment, whether by written consent or pursuant to a meeting of the BUC holders to consider and vote upon the proposed amendment.  

In addition to amendments to the Partnership Agreement adopted by the BUC holders, the Partnership Agreement may be amended by the General Partner, without the consent of the Unitholders, in certain respects if such amendments are not materially adverse to the interest of the Unitholders, to reflect the following:

to change the name of the Partnership, the location of its principal place of business, its registered agent, or its registered office;

to add to the representations, duties, or obligations of the General Partner or surrender any right or power granted to the General Partner in the Partnership Agreement;

to change the fiscal year or taxable year of the Partnership and any other changes the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate as a result of a change in the fiscal year or taxable year;

to cure any ambiguity or correct or supplement any provision of the Partnership Agreement which may be inconsistent with the intent of the Partnership Agreement, if such amendment is not materially adverse to the interests of the limited partners and BUC holders in the sole judgment of the General Partner;

to amend any provision the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate to satisfy any judicial authority or any order, directive, or requirement contained in any federal or state statute, or to facilitate the trading of Units or comply with the rules of any national securities exchange on which the BUCs are traded;

to amend any provision the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate to ensure the Partnership will be treated as a partnership, and that each BUC holder and limited partner will be treated as a limited partner, for federal income tax purposes;


to reflect the withdrawal, removal, or admission of partners;

to provide for any amendment necessary, in the opinion of counsel to the Partnership, to prevent the Partnership, the General Partner, or their managers, directors, officers, trustees, or agents from being subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, or the “plan asset” regulations under ERISA;

to effectuate any amendment to the Partnership Agreement or the Partnership’s certificate of limited partnership that the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate in connection with the authorization of the issuance of any class or series of Partnership securities; and

any other amendments substantially similar to any of the foregoing.

However, notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment to the Partnership Agreement that (i) would have a material adverse effect on the existing terms of the Series A Preferred Units, Series A-1 Preferred Units, or Series B Preferred Units, or (ii) creates Partnership securities senior to any of the Series A Preferred Units, Series A-1 Preferred Units, or Series B Preferred Units, must be approved by the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units, Series A-1 Preferred Units, or Series B Preferred Units, as applicable, voting as a singleseparate class.


Dissolution and Liquidation

The Partnership will continue in existence until dissolved under the terms of the Partnership Agreement.  The Partnership will dissolve upon:

 

(i)

the passage of 90 days following the bankruptcy, dissolution, withdrawal, or removal of a general partner who is at that time the sole general partner, unless all of the remaining partners entitled to vote (it being understood that for purposes of this provision the initial limited partner shall vote as directed by a majority in interest of the BUC holders) agree in writing to continue the business of the Partnership and a successor general partner is designated within such 90-day period;

 

(ii)

the election by a majority in interest of the UnitholdersBUC holders or by the General Partner (subject to the consent of a majority in interest of the BUC holders) to dissolve the Partnership; or

 

(iii)

any other event causing the dissolution of the Partnership under the laws of the State of Delaware.

Upon dissolution of the Partnership, its assets will be liquidated and after the payment of its obligations and the setting up of any reserves for contingencies that the General Partner considers necessary, any proceeds from the liquidation will be distributed as set forth under “– Distributions Upon Liquidation” above.

Designation of Partnership Representative

The General Partner has been designated as the Partnership’s partnership representative (or “tax matters partner”) for purposes of federal income tax audits pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder.  Each Unitholder agrees to execute any documents that may be necessary or appropriate to maintain such designation.

Tax Elections

Under the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner has the exclusive authority to make or revoke any tax elections on behalf of the Partnership.



Books and Records

The books and records of the Partnership shall be maintained at the office of the Partnership located at 1004 Farnam Street,14301 FNB Parkway, Suite 400,211, Omaha, Nebraska 68102,68154, and shall be available there during ordinary business hours for examination and copying by any Unitholder or his or her duly authorized representative.  The records of the Partnership will include, among other records, a list of the names and addresses of all Unitholders, and Unitholders will have the right to secure, upon written request to the General Partner and payment of reasonable expenses in connection therewith, a list of the names and addresses of, and the number of Units held by, all Unitholders.

Accounting Matters

The fiscal year of the Partnership is the calendar year.  The books and records of the Partnership shall be maintained on an accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Other Activities

The Partnership Agreement allows the General Partner and its affiliates to engage generally in other business ventures and provides that limited partners and BUC holders will have no rights with respect thereto by virtue of the Partnership Agreement.  In addition, the Partnership Agreement provides that an affiliate of the General Partner may acquire and hold debt securities or other interests secured by a property that also secures an MRB held by the Partnership, provided that such MRB is not junior or subordinate to the interest held by such affiliate.


Derivative Actions

Derivative Actions

The Partnership Agreement provides that a BUC holder may bring a derivative action on behalf of the Partnership to recover a judgment to the same extent as a limited partner has such rights under the Delaware LP Act.  The Delaware LP Act provides for the right to bring a derivative action, although it authorizes only a partner of a partnership to bring such an action.  There is no specific judicial or statutory authority governing the question of whether an assignee of a partner (such as a BUC holder) has the right to bring a derivative action where a specific provision exists in the Partnership Agreement granting such rights.  Furthermore, there is no express statutory authority for a limited partner’s class action in Delaware, and whether a class action may be brought by Unitholders to recover damages for breach of the General Partner’s duties in Delaware state courts is unclear.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BENEFICIAL UNIT CERTIFICATES

Beneficial Unit Certificates

Our BUCs are beneficial unit certificates that represent assignments by the initial limited partner of its entire limited partner interest in the Partnership. Although BUC holders will not be limited partners of the Partnership and have no right to be admitted as limited partners, they will be bound by the terms of the Partnership Agreement and will be entitled to the same economic benefits, including the same share of income, gains, losses, deductions, credits, and cash distributions, as if they were limited partners of the Partnership.

For a description of the rights and privileges of the holders of our BUCs and the Partnership’s limited partners, including, among others things, rights to distributions, voting rights, and rights to receive reports, see “The Partnership Agreement” above.

Transfers of BUCs

The BUCs are issued in registered form only and, except as noted below, are freely transferable.  The BUCs are currently listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “ATAX.”On November 22, 2022, we announced the BUCs have been approved for listing on the NYSE, and we have provided written notice to the NASDAQ of our intention to voluntarily withdraw the listing of the BUCs from the NASDAQ.  In connection with the listing of the BUCs on the NYSE, we will change our name to Greystone Housing Impact Investors LP.  We expect our BUCs will begin to trade on the NYSE on December 5, 2022 under the symbol “GHI.”  


A purchaser of BUCs will be recognized as a BUC holder for all purposes on the books and records of the Partnership on the day on which the General Partner (or other transfer agent appointed by the General Partner) receives satisfactory evidence of the transfer of the BUCs.  All BUC holder rights, including voting rights, rights to receive distributions, and rights to receive reports, and all allocations in respect of BUC holders, including allocations of income and expenses, will vest in, and be allocable to, BUC holders as of the close of business on such day.  American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, of New York, New York has been appointed by the General Partner to act as the registrar and transfer agent for the BUCs.

In addition, the Partnership Agreement grants the General Partner the authority to take such action as it deems necessary or appropriate, including action with respect to the manner in which BUCs are being or may be transferred or traded, in order to preserve the status of the Partnership as a partnership for federal income tax purposes or to ensure that limited partners (including BUC holders) will be treated as limited partners for federal income tax purposes.

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED UNITS

Our Partnership Agreement authorizes the General Partner to issue preferred units in one or more classes or series with such designations, preferences, rights, powers, and duties, which may be senior to existing classes and series of Partnership securities, including BUCs, as determined by the General Partner without the approval of Unitholders, including, among others:

distribution rights;

voting rights;

redemption rights and terms of redemption;

conversion rights; and

liquidation preferences.

The rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions of the preferred units of each class or series will be fixed by a certificate of designations set forth in an amendment to the Partnership Agreement relating to each class or series. We will set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement a description of the terms of any preferred units issued by us that may be offered and sold pursuant to this prospectus, including, among others:

the maximum number of units in the class or series and the distinctive designation;

the rights to share in Partnership distributions;

the terms on which the units may be redeemed, if at all;

the rights of the class or series upon dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership;

the terms of any retirement or sinking fund, if any, for the purchase or redemption of the units of the class or series;

the terms and conditions, if any, on which the units of the class or series will be convertible into, or exchangeable for, units of any other class or series of securities;

the voting rights, if any, on the units of the class or series; and

any or all other preferences and relative, participating, operational, or other special rights or qualifications, limitations, or restrictions of the units.


As of the date of this prospectus, we had three series of preferred units authorized for issuance under the Partnership Agreement, namely the Series A Preferred Units, Series A-1 Preferred Units, and Series B Preferred Units.  As of the date hereof, the only series of preferred units of which we had issued and outstanding units were the Series A Preferred Units and Series A-1 Preferred Units.  None of the Existing Preferred Units are listed on any national securities exchange.  There is no established trading market for our Existing Preferred Units and we do not expect a market to develop.  For descriptions of the rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions of the Existing Preferred Units, see “The Partnership Agreement – Issuance of Securities – Series A Preferred Units; – Series A-1 Preferred Units; and – Series B Preferred Units” beginning on page 12 above, which descriptions are incorporated by reference herein.

The description of Existing Preferred Units in this prospectus and the description of the terms of a particular series of preferred units in the prospectus supplement are not complete.  You should refer to the applicable certificate of designations set forth in the applicable amendment to our Partnership Agreement for complete information.  The prospectus supplement will contain a description of U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the particular series of preferred units.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

We may issue senior debt securities or subordinated debt securities under one or more separate indentures between us and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee, or as otherwise named in an applicable supplement to this prospectus. Following the execution of any indenture, the indenture will be filed with the SEC and incorporated by reference in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

The following summary describes certain material terms and provisions of our debt securities. When we offer to sell a particular series of debt securities, we will describe the specific terms of the series in the applicable supplement to this prospectus. You should read the applicable indenture for more details regarding the provisions of particular debt securities.

General

The debt securities will be our direct obligations, which may be either senior debt securities or subordinated debt securities. The debt securities will be issued under one or more indentures. Senior securities and subordinated securities may be issued pursuant to separate indentures, in each case between us and a trustee, which may be the same indenture trustee, subject to such amendments or supplements as may be adopted from time to time. The senior indenture and the subordinated indenture, as amended or supplemented from time to time, are sometimes hereinafter referred to collectively as the “indentures.” The indentures will be subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. The statements made under this heading relating to the debt securities and the indentures are summaries of their provisions, do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the indentures and the debt securities.

Terms

The indebtedness represented by the senior securities will rank equally with all our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The indebtedness represented by subordinated securities will be subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of our senior securities. The particular terms of the debt securities offered by us will be described in one or more supplements to this prospectus, along with any applicable federal income tax considerations unique to such debt securities. Accordingly, for a description of the terms of any series of debt securities, reference must be made to both the prospectus supplement relating to that series and the description of the debt securities set forth in this prospectus.

Except as set forth in any prospectus supplement, our debt securities may be issued without limits as to aggregate principal amount, in one or more series, in each case as established from time to time by us or as set forth in the applicable indenture. The terms of each series of our debt securities will be established by or


pursuant to a resolution of the board of managers of Greystone Manager (the “Board of Managers”) and set forth or determined in the manner provided in a resolution of the Board of Managers, in an officer’s certificate or by a supplemental indenture. All debt securities of one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened, without the consent of the holders of the debt securities of that series, for issuance of additional debt securities of that series.

Any indenture trustee under an indenture may resign or be removed with respect to one or more series of debt securities as provided in the applicable indenture and a successor indenture trustee will be appointed to act with respect to such series.

The following sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the indentures and the debt securities. The prospectus supplement relating to the series of debt securities being offered will contain further terms of those debt securities, including the following specific terms:

the title of the debt securities and whether the debt securities are secured, unsecured, senior securities or subordinated securities;

the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities and any limit on such aggregate principal amount;

the price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of the series) at which the debt securities will be issued and, if other than the principal amount of the debt securities, the portion of the principal amount of the debt securities payable upon declaration of the maturity of the debt securities, or (if applicable) the portion of the principal amount of the debt securities that is convertible into depositary units or preferred units, or the method by which any such portion shall be determined;

if convertible, the terms on which such debt securities are convertible, including the initial conversion price or rate and the conversion period and any applicable limitations on the ownership or transferability of the Units receivable on conversion;

the date or dates, or the method for determining the date or dates, on which the principal of the debt securities will be payable;

the rate or rates (which may be fixed or variable), or the method by which the rate or rates shall be determined, at which the debt securities will bear interest, if any;

the date or dates, or the method for determining the date or dates, from which any interest will accrue, the dates on which any interest will be payable, the record dates for interest payment dates, or the method by which the record dates shall be determined, the persons to whom interest shall be payable, and the basis upon which interest shall be calculated if other than that of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months;

the place or places where the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the debt securities will be payable, where the debt securities may be surrendered for conversion or registration of transfer or exchange and where notices or demands to or upon us with respect to the debt securities and the applicable indenture may be served;

the period or periods, if any, within which, the price or prices at which and the other terms and conditions upon which the debt securities may, pursuant to any optional or mandatory redemption provisions, be redeemed, as a whole or in part, at our option;


our obligation, if any, to redeem, repay or purchase the debt securities pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provision or at the option of a holder of the debt securities, and the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which and the other terms and conditions upon which the debt securities will be redeemed, repaid or purchased, as a whole or in part, pursuant to such obligation;

whether the amount of payments of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on such debt securities may be determined with reference to an index, formula, or other method (which index, formula, or method may, but need not, be based on a currency, currencies, currency unit or units, or composite currency or currencies) and the manner in which such amounts shall be determined;

whether the debt securities will be issued in certificated or book-entry form and, if so, the identity of the depositary for such securities;

whether such debt securities will be in registered form and, if in registered form, the denominations thereof if other than minimum denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof;

the applicability, if any, of the defeasance and covenant defeasance provisions described in this prospectus or set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement and indenture, or any modification thereof;

whether and under what circumstances we will pay any additional amounts on the debt securities in respect of any tax, assessment or governmental charge and, if so, whether we will have the option to redeem the debt securities in lieu of making such payment;

any deletions from, modifications of, or additions to the events of default or our covenants, to the extent different from those described in this prospectus, and any change in the right of any trustee or any of the holders to declare the principal amount of any debt securities due and payable;

the provisions, if any, relating to the security provided for the debt securities; and

any other terms of the debt securities not inconsistent with the provisions of the applicable indenture.

If so provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, our debt securities may be issued at a discount below their principal amount and provide for less than their entire principal amount to be payable upon declaration of acceleration of the maturity of such debt securities. In such cases, any special U.S. federal income tax, accounting and other considerations applicable to the securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Except as may be set forth in any prospectus supplement, neither our debt securities nor the applicable indenture will contain any provisions that would limit our ability to incur indebtedness or that would afford holders of our debt securities protection in the event of a highly leveraged or similar transaction involving us or in the event of a change of control, regardless of whether the indebtedness, transaction or change of control is initiated or supported by us, any of our affiliates or any other party.

Reference is made to the applicable prospectus supplement for information with respect to any deletions from, modifications of, or additions to, the events of default or covenants that are described below, including any addition of a covenant or other provision providing event risk or similar protection.



Denomination, Interest, Registration and Transfer

Unless otherwise described in the applicable prospectus supplement, our debt securities of any series will be issuable in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, the principal of (and applicable premium, if any) and interest on any series of debt securities will be payable at the corporate trust office of the applicable indenture trustee, except, that, at our option, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the person entitled to payment of interest as it appears in the applicable register for the debt securities.

Our debt securities of any series will be exchangeable for any authorized denomination of other debt securities of the same series and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor upon surrender of the debt securities at the corporate trust office of the applicable indenture trustee or at the office of any registrar designated by us for such purpose. In addition, subject to certain limitations imposed upon debt securities issued in book-entry form, our debt securities of any series may be surrendered for conversion or registration of transfer or exchange thereof at the corporate trust office of the applicable indenture trustee or at the office of any registrar designated by us for such purpose. Every debt security surrendered for conversion, registration of transfer or exchange must be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, and the person requesting such action must provide evidence of title and identity satisfactory to the applicable indenture trustee or registrar. Except as may be set forth in any prospectus supplement, no service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of any debt securities, but we may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with the registration of any transfer or exchange. If the applicable prospectus supplement refers to any registrar (in addition to the applicable indenture trustee) initially designated by us with respect to any series of debt securities, we may at any time rescind the designation of any such registrar or approve a change in the location through which any registrar acts, except that we will be required to maintain a transfer agent in each place of payment for such series.

We may at any time designate additional registrars with respect to any series of debt securities.

Neither we nor any indenture trustee shall be required (1) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange debt securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the delivery of a notice of redemption of any debt securities that may be selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of the delivery, or (2) to register the transfer of or exchange any debt security, or portion of the debt security, selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any debt security being redeemed in part.

Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets

The applicable indenture will provide that we may, without the consent of the holders of any outstanding debt securities, consolidate with, or sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of our or its assets to, or merge with or into, any other entity provided that (a) either we shall be the continuing entity, or the successor entity (if other than the Partnership) formed by or resulting from any such consolidation or merger or which shall have received the transfer of such assets, is organized under the laws of any domestic jurisdiction and expressly assumes by supplemental indenture our obligations to pay principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on all of the debt securities and the due and punctual performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions contained in the indenture; (b) immediately after the transaction, no event of default under the applicable indenture, and no event which, after notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an event of default, exists; and (c) an officers’ certificate and legal opinion covering these conditions shall be delivered to the applicable indenture trustee.

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable indenture and set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, the applicable indenture will provide that these conditions will not apply or be required to be


complied with in connection with any merger or consolidation or sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance of all or substantially all of our assets to a wholly owned subsidiary, provided that if we are not the surviving entity of the transaction, the surviving entity complies with clauses (a) and (c) of the immediately preceding paragraph.

Covenants

Covenants with respect to any series of debt securities will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Subordination of Subordinated Debt Securities

Unless the prospectus supplement indicates otherwise, the following provisions will apply to the subordinated debt securities. To the extent we issue subordinated debt securities, they will also be contractually subordinated to any senior debt securities or other senior indebtedness that we may issue. The indebtedness underlying the subordinated debt securities will be payable only if all payments due under our senior indebtedness, including any outstanding senior debt securities, have been made. If we distribute our assets to creditors upon any dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceedings, we must first pay all amounts due or to become due on all senior indebtedness before we pay the principal of, or any premium or interest on, the subordinated debt securities. In the event the subordinated debt securities are accelerated because of any event of default, we may not make any payment on the subordinated debt securities until either we have paid all senior indebtedness or the acceleration is rescinded.

If we experience a bankruptcy, dissolution, or reorganization, holders of senior indebtedness may receive more, ratably, and holders of subordinated debt securities may receive less, ratably, than our other creditors.

Events of Default, Notice and Waiver

Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, each indenture will provide that the following events are “Events of Default” with respect to any series of debt securities:

(1)

default for 30 days in the payment of any installment of interest on any debt security of that series or in the performance of certain covenants contained in the indenture;

(2)

default in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any, on) any debt security of the series at its maturity upon redemption or otherwise;

(3)

default in the performance or breach of any other covenant contained in the indenture (other than a covenant added to the indenture solely for the benefit of a series of debt securities issued under the indenture other than such series), continued for 60 days after written notice as provided in the applicable indenture has been given;

(4)

certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization, or court appointment of a receiver, liquidator, or trustee of our company or any guarantor that is a significant subsidiary, as defined; and

(5)

any other event of default provided with respect to a particular series of debt securities.

If an event of default under any indenture with respect to debt securities of any series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the applicable indenture trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the debt securities of that series will have the right to declare the principal amount (or, if the debt securities of that series are original issue discount securities or indexed securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of those debt securities) of all the debt securities of that series to be due and payable immediately by written notice thereof to us (and to the


applicable indenture trustee if given by the holders). However, at any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to debt securities of any series (or of all debt securities then outstanding under any indenture, as the case may be) has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the applicable indenture trustee, the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of that series (or of all debt securities then outstanding under the applicable indenture, as the case may be) may rescind and annul the declaration and its consequences subject to certain conditions provided in the applicable indenture. The indentures also will provide that the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series (or of all debt securities then outstanding under the applicable indenture, as the case may be) may waive any past default with respect to that series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any debt security of that series or in respect of a covenant or provision which under the indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each holder affected by such modification or amendment.

The indentures will require each indenture trustee to give notice to the holders of debt securities within the later of 90 days of a default or a responsible officer of the trustee obtaining actual notice of such default under the applicable indenture unless the default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that the indenture trustee may withhold notice to the holders of any series of debt securities of any default with respect to the series if specified responsible officers of such indenture trustee consider withholding of notice to be in the interest of the holders.

Except as may be set forth in any prospectus supplement, each indenture will provide that no holder of debt securities of any series may institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to such indenture or for any remedy under it, except in the case of failure of the applicable indenture trustee, for 60 days, to act after it has received a written request to institute proceedings in respect of an event of default from the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series, as well as an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding securities of that series have not given the trustee a direction inconsistent with the request. This provision will not prevent, however, any holder of debt securities from instituting suit for the enforcement of payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the debt securities on or after the respective due dates thereof.

The indentures will provide that an indenture trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under an indenture at the request or direction of any holders of any series of debt securities then outstanding under that indenture, unless the holders shall have offered and provided to the indenture trustee under that indenture security or indemnity satisfactory to it. The holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series (or of all debt securities then outstanding under an indenture, as the case may be) shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the applicable indenture trustee, or of exercising any trust or power conferred upon the indenture trustee. However, an indenture trustee may refuse to follow any direction which is in conflict with any law or the applicable indenture, which may involve the indenture trustee in personal liability or which may be prejudicial to the holders of debt securities of such series not joining therein (provided, however, that the trustee shall have no duty to determine whether any such direction is prejudicial to any holder).

Within 90 days after the close of each fiscal year, we will be required to deliver to each indenture trustee a certificate, signed by one of several of our specified officers, stating among other things whether or not the officer has knowledge of any default under the applicable indenture and, if so, specifying each default and the nature and status of the default.

Modification of the Indentures

Except as may be set forth in any prospectus supplement, modifications and amendments of an indenture will be permitted to be made only with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in


principal amount of all outstanding debt securities issued under the indenture affected by the modification or amendment; provided, however, that no modification or amendment may, without the consent of the holder of each debt security affected thereby,(1) extend the stated maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest (or premium, if any) on, any the debt security; (2) reduce the principal amount of, or the rate or amount of interest on, or any premium payable on redemption of, any such debt security, or reduce the amount of principal of an original issue discount security that would be due and payable upon declaration of acceleration of its maturity or would be provable in bankruptcy, or adversely affect any right of repayment of the holder of any such debt security; (3) change the coin or currency for payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any the debt security; or (4) modify any of the foregoing provisions or any of the provisions relating to the waiver of certain past defaults or covenants or modify certain covenants.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each series may, on behalf of all holders of debt securities of that series, waive, insofar as that series is concerned, compliance by us with certain restrictive covenants of the applicable indenture.

Modifications and amendments of an indenture will be permitted to be made by us and the respective indenture trustee without the consent of any holder of debt securities for any of the following purposes among certain others:

(1)

to evidence the succession of another person to our company as obligor under the indenture;

(2)

to add to the covenants of our company for the benefit of the holders of all or any series of debt securities or to surrender any right or power conferred upon us in such indenture;

(3)

to change or eliminate any provisions of the indenture restricting the payment of principal or premium with respect to securities in registered form, provided that the action shall not adversely affect the interest of the holders of the debt securities of any series in any material respect;

(4)

in the case of subordinated securities, to make any change to the provisions of an indenture that would limit or terminate the benefits available to any holder of senior indebtedness, but only if each such holder of senior indebtedness consents to such change;

(5)

to add guarantees with respect to the securities or to secure the securities;

(6)

to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage, or pledge any property to the indenture trustee;

(7)

to modify an indenture so as to permit its qualification under the Trust Indenture Act;

(8)

to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder;

(9)

to add to, change or eliminate any provisions of an indenture; provided that any such addition, change or elimination not otherwise permitted under the indenture (i) shall be effective only when there are no debt securities outstanding of any series created prior thereto which are entitled to the benefit of such provision, or (ii) does not apply to nor modify the rights of the holders of any such debt securities;

(10)

to establish the form or terms of securities and coupons of any series of securities;

(11)

to provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor indenture trustee or facilitate the administration of the trusts under an indenture by more than one indenture trustee; or

(12)

to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency in an indenture.

The indentures will provide that, in determining whether the holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding debt securities of a series have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, or waiver under the applicable indenture or whether a quorum is present at a meeting of holders of


debt securities, the principal amount of an original issue discount security that shall be deemed to be outstanding shall be the amount of principal that would be due and payable as of the date of the determination upon declaration of acceleration of the maturity of the original discount issue security pursuant to the indenture.

Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will be permitted, at our option, to discharge certain obligations to holders of any series of debt securities issued under any indenture that have not already been delivered to the applicable indenture trustee for cancellation and that either have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or scheduled for redemption within one year) by irrevocably depositing with the applicable indenture trustee, in trust, funds in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the debt securities are payable in an amount sufficient to pay the entire indebtedness on the debt securities with respect to principal (and premium, if any) and interest to the date of the deposit (if such debt securities have become due and payable) or to the stated maturity or redemption date, as the case may be.

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the indentures will provide that we may elect either:

(1)

to defease and be discharged from any and all obligations with respect to such debt securities; or

(2)

to be released from our obligations with respect to covenants under the applicable indenture;

in either case upon the irrevocable deposit by us with the applicable indenture trustee, in trust, of an amount sufficient to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the debt securities on the stated maturity or on the applicable redemption date.

Such a trust will only be permitted to be established if, among other things, we have delivered to the applicable indenture trustee an opinion of counsel (as specified in the applicable indenture) and to the effect that the holders of the outstanding debt securities will not recognize income, gain, or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred. In the event of defeasance, the holders of debt securities would thereafter be able to look only to the trust fund for payment of principal (and premium, if any) and interest.

The applicable prospectus supplement may further describe the provisions, if any, permitting such defeasance or covenant defeasance, including any modifications to the provisions described above, with respect to the debt securities of or within a particular series.

Conversion Rights

The terms and conditions, if any, upon which the debt securities are convertible into Units will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement relating thereto. Such terms will include whether such debt securities are convertible into BUCs or preferred units, the conversion price (or manner of calculation thereof), the conversion period, provisions as to whether conversion will be at our option or the option of the holders, the events requiring an adjustment of the conversion price and provisions affecting conversion in the event of the redemption of such debt securities and any restrictions on conversion.

Payment

Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, the principal of (and applicable premium, if any) and interest on any series of debt securities will be payable at the office of the paying agent, which shall be the corporate trust office of the indenture trustee, the address of which will be stated in the applicable prospectus supplement; provided that, at our option payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as it appears in the applicable register for such debt securities or by wire transfer of funds to such person at an account maintained within the United States.


All moneys paid by us to a paying agent or an indenture trustee for the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any debt security which remain unclaimed at the end of one year after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable will be repaid to us, and the holder of such debt security thereafter may look only to us for payment thereof.

Global Securities

The debt securities of a series may be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more global securities that will be deposited with, or on behalf of, a depositary identified in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to such series. Global securities will be issued in registered form and in either temporary or permanent form. The specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to a series of debt securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to such series.

The following discussion does not comment on all U.S. federal income tax matters affecting us or our Unitholders and does not describe the application of the alternative minimum tax that may be applicable to certain Unitholders.  Moreover, the discussion focuses on Unitholders who are individual citizens or residents of the United States and has only limited application to corporations, estates, entities treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes, trusts, nonresident aliens, U.S. expatriates and former citizens or long-term residents of the United States or other UnitholdersBUC holders subject to specialized tax treatment, such as banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions, tax-exempt institutions, foreign persons (including, without limitation, controlled foreign corporations, passive foreign investment companies and foreign persons eligible for the benefits of an applicable income tax treaty with the United States), individual retirement accounts (IRAs), real estate investment trusts (REITs) or mutual funds, dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities, U.S. persons whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar, persons holding their Unitsunits as part of a “straddle,” “hedge,” “conversion transaction” or other risk reduction transaction, persons subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of any item of gross income with respect to our Unitsunits being taken into account in an applicable financial statement and persons deemed to sell their Units under the constructive sale provisions of the Code.IRC.  In addition, the discussion only comments, to a limited extent, on state, local and foreign tax consequences.consequences, and does not address the Medicare 3.8% net investment income tax.  Accordingly, we encourage each prospective Unitholder to consult his, her, or its own tax advisor in analyzing the state, local and foreign tax consequences particular to himsuch holder of the ownership or disposition of UnitsBUCs and potential changes in applicable laws, including the impact of recently enacted U.S. tax reform legislation.laws.

All statements of law and legal conclusions, but not any statements of fact, contained in this section, except as described below or otherwise noted, are the opinion of Baird HolmBarnes & Thornburg LLP and are based on the accuracy of representations made by the Partnershipus to Baird HolmBarnes & Thornburg LLP for this purpose.  Baird HolmBarnes & Thornburg LLP is unable to opine that interest on any mortgage revenue bond held by the Partnership is currently excludable from gross income of a bondholder for U.S. federal income tax purposes because the facts necessary to provide such an opinion are unknown and not reasonably available to the Partnership or counsel, such facts cannot be obtained by the Partnership or counsel without unreasonable effort or expense, and because such facts rest peculiarly within the knowledge of other persons not affiliated with the Partnership. Specifically, such opinion would require detailed information and calculations from the respective issuer, borrower, bond trustee, and guarantors of each mortgage revenue bond regarding eligibility under and compliance with the applicable provisions of the CodeIRC and Treasury Regulations, including without limitation, information and computations relating to the investment of bond proceeds, use of bond proceeds, occupancy of bond-financed properties and rebate payments to the United States. Both the Partnership and its counsel have determined it is not possible to obtain this information and computations for all mortgage revenue bonds.

No ruling on the U.S. federal, state, or local tax considerations relevant to the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Partnership’s Units, or the statements or conclusions in this description, has been or will be requested from the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"(“IRS”) or from any other tax authority, and a taxing authority, including the IRS, may not agree with the statements and conclusions expressed herein.  In the opinion of Baird HolmBarnes & Thornburg LLP, based upon the IRC, the Treasury Regulations, published revenue rulings and court decisions, and the representations described below, the Partnership will be classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Partnership will be treated as a partnership and the holders of Units will be subject to tax as partners of the Partnership.purposes.  However, no assurance can be given that any opinion of counsel would be accepted by the IRS or, if challenged by the IRS, sustained in court.  Any contest of this sort with the IRS may materially and adversely impact the market for our BUCs,Units, including the prices at which our BUCs trade.  In addition, the costs of any contest


with the IRS, principally legal, accounting and related fees, will result in a reduction in cash available for distribution to our Unitholders and our General Partner and thus will be borne indirectly by our Unitholders and our General Partner.  Furthermore, the tax treatment of us, or of an investment in us, may be significantly modified by future legislative or administrative changes or court decisions.  Any modifications may or may not be retroactively applied.

In rendering its opinion set forth in the preceding paragraph, Barnes & Thornburg LLP has relied on factual representations made by us and the General Partner.  The representations made by us and the General Partner upon which Barnes & Thornburg LLP has relied include:

We have not elected to be, will not elect to be, and are not otherwise treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and

For each taxable year, more than 90% of our gross income has been and will be income of the type that is “qualifying income” within the meaning of Section 7704(d) of the IRC.

We urge you to consult your own tax advisors about the specific tax consequences to you of purchasing, holding, and disposing of our Units,BUCs, including the application and effect of U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income and other tax laws.

Income Tax Considerations Relating to

Taxation of the Partnership and its Unitholders

Partnership Status. UnderStatus

An entity that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes generally will not be liable for entity-level U.S. federal income taxes. Instead, as described below, each partner of the “check-the-box” regulations promulgatedpartnership (and in our case, our Unitholders) will take into account its respective share of the items of income, gain, loss and deduction of the partnership in computing its U.S. federal income tax liability as if the partner (and in our case, the Unitholder) had earned such income directly, regardless of whether cash distributions are made to him or her by the IRS, absent an electionpartnership.  Distributions by a partnership to a partner generally are not taxable to the partnership or the partner unless the amount of cash distributed to him or her is in excess of the partner’s adjusted basis in his partnership interest.  Please read “– Allocation of Income, Gain, Loss and Deduction” and “– Treatment of Distributions on BUCs.”

Section 7704 of the IRC generally provides that publicly traded partnerships will be treated as an associationcorporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, if 90% or more of a partnership’s gross income for every taxable as a corporation, an entity formed as ayear it is publicly traded consists of “qualifying income,” the partnership such as the Partnership generally willmay continue to be treated as a partnership for income tax purposes. The Partnership is a limited partnership under Delaware law and it will not file any election with the IRS to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation.


Subject to the discussion below concerning Publicly Traded Partnerships under the heading “– Treatment of the Partnership as a Publicly Traded Partnership,” the Partnership will be treated as a partnership forU.S. federal income tax purposes (the “Qualifying Income Exception”). Qualifying income includes income and gains derived from the exploration, development, mining or production, processing, transportation, and marketing of certain natural resources, including crude oil, natural gas and products thereof, as well as other types of income such as interest (other than from a financial business) and dividends. We estimate that less than 2% of our current gross income is not qualifying income; however, this estimate could change from time to time.

No ruling has been or will be sought from the IRS and the holdersIRS has made no determination as to our status or the status of Unitsthe operating subsidiaries for U.S. federal income tax purposes or whether our operations generate “qualifying income” under Section 7704 of the IRC.  However, as noted above, Barnes & Thornburg LLP, as described and qualified above, is of the opinion that we will be subject to tax as partners.

Because the Partnership will be treatedclassified as a partnership for income tax purposes, it will not be liable for any income tax. Rather, all items of the Partnership’s income, gain, loss, deduction or tax credit will be allocated to its partners (including the Unitholders), who will be subject to taxation on their distributive share thereof. Taxable income allocated by the Partnership to Unitholders with respect to a taxable year may exceed the amount of cash distributed by the Partnership to Unitholders for such year.

The Partnership is not intended to act as a “tax shelter” and will not register as such with the IRS.

Treatment of the Partnership as a Publicly Traded Partnership. The listing of our BUCs on the NASDAQ causes us to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  A publicly traded partnership is generally taxable as a corporation unless 90% or more of its annual gross income in each year is “qualifying” income which is defined as interest, dividends, real property rents, gains from the sale or other disposition of real property, gain from the sale or other disposition of capital assets held for the production of interest or dividends, and certain other items ("Qualifying Income Exception"). In determining whether interest is treated as “qualifying income” under these rules, interest income derived from a “financial business” and income and gains derived by a “dealer” in securities is not treated as qualifying income. We believe at least 90% of our annual gross income in each prior year of our operations was qualifying income, and we intend to conduct our operations in a manner such that at least 90% of our gross income will constitute qualifying income. Furthermore, we do not believe that we are engaged in a financial business or are acting as a dealer, because we are acting strictly as a long-term investor with respect to our investments and we do not conduct bond origination activities. However, there is no clear guidance as to what constitutes a financial business for purposes of the publicly traded partnership regulations and it is possible that the IRS could assert that our activities constitute a financial business. If the IRS successfully asserted that we were involved in a financial business or were acting as a dealer, less than 90% of our income could be found to be qualifying income. In addition, in determining whether interest is treated as qualifying income, interest income that is determined based upon the income or profits of any person is not treated as qualifying income. It is possible that the IRS could take the position that the contingent interest payable on some of our mortgage revenue bonds is determined based upon the income or profits (rather than the net cash flow) of the properties financed by these bonds and, accordingly, would not be qualifying interest. Since, in certain years, more than 10% of our interest income was in the form of such contingent interest, the IRS could take the position that we fail to qualify for the Qualifying Income Exception to the publicly traded partnership rules and that we should be taxed as a corporation.

If we fail to meet the Qualifying Income Exception,, other than a failure that is determined by the IRS to be inadvertent and that is cured within a reasonable time after discovery (in which case the IRS may also require us to make adjustments with respect to our Unitholders or pay other amounts), we will be treated as if we had transferredtransferring all of our assets, subject to liabilities, to a newly formed corporation on the first day of the year in which we fail to meet the Qualifying Income Exception in return for stock in that corporation, and then distributedas distributing that stock to theour Unitholders in liquidation of their interests in us.liquidation. This deemed contribution and liquidation generally should be tax-free tonot result in the recognition of taxable income by our Unitholders andor us so long as we, at that time,our liabilities do not have liabilities in excess ofexceed the tax basis of our assets.assets and other


conditions are met. Thereafter, we would be treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.

If we were treated as an association taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The present U.S. federal income tax treatment of publicly traded partnerships, including us, or an investment in our Units may be modified by administrative or legislative action or judicial interpretation at any time. For example, from time to time, members of the U.S. Congress propose and consider substantive changes to the existing U.S. federal income tax laws that affect publicly traded partnerships, and which may affect a Unitholder’s investment.

At the state level, several states have been evaluating ways to subject partnerships to entity-level taxation through the imposition of state income, franchise, or other forms of taxation. Imposition of a similar tax on us in the jurisdictions in which we operate or in other jurisdictions to which we may expand could substantially reduce our cash available for distribution to our Unitholders.

If for any reason we are taxable as a corporation in any taxable year, either as a result of a failure to meet the Qualifying Income Exception or otherwise, our items of income, gain, loss and deduction would be reflected only ontaken into account by us in determining the amount of our liability for U.S. federal income tax, return rather than being passed through to our Unitholders. Our taxation as a corporation materially would reduce the cash available for distribution to Unitholders and thus likely would substantially reduce the value of our net income would be taxed to us at corporate rates. In addition, anyUnits. Any distribution made to a Unitholder at a time we are treated as a corporation would be treated as(i) a taxable dividend income, to the extent of our current andor accumulated earnings and profits, or, in the absence of earnings and profits,then (ii) a nontaxable return of capital to the extent of the Unitholder’s tax basis in hisits Units, orand thereafter (iii) taxable capital gain, aftergain.

The remainder of this discussion is based on the Unitholder’s tax basis in his Units is reduced to zero. Accordingly, taxation as a corporation would result in a material reduction in a Unitholder’s cash flow and after-tax return and thus would likely result in a substantial reductionopinion of the value of the Units.


Taxation of the Partnership and Unitholders. A partnership is not subject to federal income tax. Because the PartnershipBarnes & Thornburg LLP that we will be classifiedtreated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Tax Consequences of BUCs Ownership

BUC Holder Status

We will treat BUC holders as partners in the Partnership and distributions paid to BUC holders as being made to such holders in their capacity as partners for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  Also, BUC holders whose BUCs are held in street name or by a nominee and who have the right to direct the nominee in the exercise of all substantive rights attendant to the ownership of their BUCs will be treated as partners of the Partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  

A beneficial owner of BUCs whose BUCs have been transferred to a short seller to complete a short sale would appear to lose such owner’s status as a partner with respect to those Units for federal income tax purposes.  See below under “– Treatment of Securities Loans.”

Income, gains, deductions, or losses, would not appear to be reportable by a BUC holder who is not a partner for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and assuming that at least 90% of the Partnership’s gross income will constitute qualifying income such that it willany cash distributions received by a BUC holder who is not be publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation, the Partnership will not be subject topartner for U.S. federal income tax purposes would therefore appear to be fully taxable as ordinary income.

For a discussion related to the risks of losing partner status as a result of securities loans, please read “– Tax Consequences of Units Ownership – Treatment of Securities Loans.”  BUC holders who are not treated as partners of the Partnership as described above or who may be at risk of such treatment are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences applicable to them under their particular circumstances.

The remainder of this discussion assumes that BUC holders are treated as partners in the Partnership and that distributions to BUC holders will be made to such holders in their capacity as partners.

Flow-Through of Taxable Income

Subject to the discussion below under “– Entity-Level Collections of Unitholder Taxes” with respect to payments we may be required to make on behalf of our Unitholders, we do not pay any U.S. federal income tax. Rather, each UnitholderBUC holder will be required to report on his, her, or its U.S. federal income tax return its distributive share ofeach year the Partnership’s

Consequently, we may allocate income to a Unitholder even if that Unitholder has not received a cash distribution (with which it otherwise may use to pay the associated tax).

We will treat distributions that are declared to BUC holders as distributions by the Partnership to the Unitholders in connection with their interests in the Unitholder’s taxable year within which or with which the Partnership’s taxable year ends. Thus, Unitholders may be required to accrue income, without the current receiptPartnership.

Basis of cash, if the Partnership does not make cash distributions while generating taxable income. Consequently, although it is not anticipated, aUnits

A Unitholder’s tax liability with respect to its share of the Partnership’s taxable income may exceed the cash actually distributed in a given taxable year. The Partnership currently uses the calendar year as its taxable year.

The Partnership will file a federal tax return on Form 1065 and will provide information as to each Unitholder’s distributive share of the Partnership’s income, gain, loss, deduction and items of tax preference on a Schedule K-1 supplied to such Unitholder after the close of the fiscal year. In preparing such information, the Partnership will utilize various accounting and reporting conventions, some of which are discussed herein, to determine each Unitholder’s allocable share of income, gain, loss and deduction. There is no assurance that the use of such conventions will produce a result that conforms to the requirements of the Code, temporary and proposed treasury regulations or IRS administrative pronouncements and there is no assurance that the IRS will not successfully contend that such conventions are impermissible. Any such contentions could result in substantial expenses to the Partnership and its Unitholders as a result of contesting such contentions, as well as an increase in tax liability to Unitholders as a result of adjustments to their allocable share of our income, gain, loss and deduction. See “– Tax Returns, Audits, Interest and Penalties.”

Capital Gain Upon Sale of Assets. The Partnership may, from time to time, sell, dispose of or otherwise be treated as disposing of, certain of its assets. Such sale or disposition may result in taxable capital gain.

Unitholder’s Basis in Units. Your adjusted basis in the Partnership’sits Units is relevant in determining the gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of Units and the tax consequences of a distribution from the Partnership. See “– Treatment of Cash Distributions to Unitholders from the Partnership.”  In addition, you are entitled to deduct on your income tax return, subject to the limitations discussed below, your distributive share of the Partnership’s net loss, if any, to the extent of your adjusted basis in your Units.

A Unitholder’s initial tax basis for his Units(including BUCs) initially will be the amount he paid for the Units plus his share of our nonrecourse liabilities. Thatthose Units. A BUC holder’s basis will be increased by histhe holder’s initial allocable share of our liabilities. A BUC holder’s basis will be (i) increased by the BUC holder’s share of our income byand any increases in hissuch holder’s share of our nonrecourse liabilities, and on the disposition of a Unit, by his share of certain items related to business interest not yet deductible by him due to applicable limitations.

Treatment of Cash Distributions to Unitholders from the Partnership. on BUCs

Distributions by us to a UnitholderBUC holder generally will not be taxable to the UnitholderBUC holder for U.S. federal income tax purposes, except to the extent the amount of any such cash distribution exceeds histhe holder’s tax basis in his, Unitsher, or its BUCs immediately before the distribution.  Our cash distributions in excess of a Unitholder’sBUC holder’s tax basis generally will be considered to be gain from the sale or exchange of the Units, taxable in accordance with the rules described under “– Disposition of UnitsBUCs.”  Any reduction in a Unitholder’s share of our liabilities for which no partner, including the General Partner, bears the economic risk of loss, known as “nonrecourse liabilities,” will be treated as a distribution by us of cash to that Unitholder.  To the extent our distributions cause a Unitholder’s “at-risk” amount to be less than zero at the end of any taxable year, such Unitholderhe, she, or it must recapture any losses deducted in previous years.  Please read "– See below  “Limitations on Deductibility of Losses.”


A decrease in a Unitholder’s percentage interest in us because of our issuance of additional Units will decrease his share of our nonrecourse liabilities, and thus will result in a corresponding deemed distribution of cash. This deemed distribution may constitute a non-pro rata distribution.

A non-pro rata distribution of money or property may result in ordinary income to a Unitholder, regardless of histhe holder’s tax basis in his, her, or its Units, if the distribution reduces the Unitholder’s share of our “unrealized receivables,” including depreciation recapture and/or substantially appreciated “inventory items,” each as defined in the Code,IRC, and collectively, “Section 751 Assets.”  To that extent, the Unitholder will be treated as having been distributed his proportionate sharePlease see “– Disposition of the Section 751 Assets and then having exchanged those assets with us in returnBUCs – Recognition of Gain or Loss for the non-pro rata portion of the actual distribution made to him. This latter deemed exchange will generally result in the Unitholder’s realization of ordinary income, which will equal the excess of (i) the non-pro rata portion of that distribution over (ii) the Unitholder’s tax basis (often zero) for the sharemore discussion of Section 751 Assets deemed relinquished in the exchange.Assets.

Limitations on Deductibility of Losses.

A Unitholder may not be entitled to deduct the full amount of loss we allocate to him, her, or it because its share of our losses will be limited to the lesser of (i) the Unitholder’s adjusted tax basis in its Units, and (ii) in the case of a Unitholder that is an individual, estate, trust or certain types of closely heldclosely-held corporations, the amount for which the Unitholder is considered to be “at risk” with respect to our activities. In general, aA Unitholder will be at risk to the extent of its adjusted tax basis in its Units, reduced by (1) any portion of that basis attributable to the Unitholder’s share of our nonrecourse liabilities, (2) any portion of that basis representing amounts otherwise protected against loss because of a guarantee, stop loss agreement or similar arrangement, and (3) any amount of money the Unitholder borrows to acquire or hold its Units, if the lender of those borrowed funds owns an interest in us, is related to another Unitholder or can look only to the Units for repayment.

A Unitholder subject to the at risk limitation must recapture losses deducted in previous years to the extent that distributions (including distributions deemed to result from a reduction in a Unitholder’s share of nonrecourse liabilities) cause the Unitholder’s at risk amount to be less than zero at the end of any taxable year.

Losses disallowed to a Unitholder or recaptured as a result of the basis or at risk limitations will carry forward and will be allowable as a deduction in a later year to the extent that the Unitholder’s adjusted tax basis or at risk amount, whichever is the limiting factor, is subsequently increased. Upon a taxable disposition of Units, any gain recognized


by a Unitholder can be offset by losses that were previously suspended by the at risk limitation but not losses suspended by the basis limitation. Any loss previously suspended by the at riskat-risk limitation in excess of that gain can no longer be used and will not be available to offset a Unitholder’s salary or active business income.

In addition to the basis and at risk limitations, a passive activity loss limitation generally limits the deductibility of losses incurred by individuals, estates, trusts, some closely held corporations and personal service corporations from “passive activities” (generally,(such as, trade or business activities in which the taxpayer does not materially participate). The passive loss limitations are applied separately with respect to each publicly traded partnership. Consequently, any passive losses we generate will only be available to offset ouronly passive income generated in the future and will not be available to offset income from other passive activities or investments, including our investments or a Unitholder's investments in other publicly traded partnerships, or the Unitholder's salary, active business or other income.by us. Passive losses that exceed a Unitholder’s share of the passive income we generate may be deducted in full when thea Unitholder disposes of all of its Units in a fully taxable transaction with an unrelated party. The passive activity loss rules generally are applied after other applicable limitations on deductions, including the at risk and basis limitations.

For taxpayers other than corporations in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017,2020 (as revised by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or CARES Act, of 2020 and the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022), and before January 1, 2026,2028, an “excess business loss” limitation further limits the deductibility of losses by such taxpayers. An excess business loss is the excess (if any) of a taxpayer’s aggregate deductions for the taxable year that are attributable to the trades or businesses of such taxpayer (determined without regard to the excess business loss limitation) over the aggregate gross income or gain of such taxpayer for the taxable year that is attributable to such trades or businesses plus a threshold amount. The threshold amount is equal to $250,000$270,000 or $500,000$540,000 for taxpayers filing a joint return.return, in 2022. Disallowed excess business losses are treated as a net operating loss carryover to the following tax year. Any losses we generate that are allocated to a Unitholder and not otherwise limited by the basis, at risk, or passive activity loss limitations will be included in the determination of such Unitholder’s aggregate trade or business deductions. Consequently, any losses we generate that are not otherwise limited will only be available to offset a Unitholder’s other trade or business income plus an amount of non-trade or business income equal to the applicable threshold amount. Thus, except to the extent of the threshold amount, our losses that are not otherwise


limited may not offset a Unitholder’s non-trade or business income (such as salaries, fees, interest, dividends and capital gains). This excess business loss limitation will be applied after the passive activity loss limitation.

Limitation

Limitations on Interest Deductions

Commencing with taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, the DeductibilityTax Cuts and Jobs Act of Interest Expense. The Code disallows any deduction for2017 restricts the amount of interest expense that may be deducted.  Generally, “business interest” expenses are now deductible only to the extent of business interest income plus 30% of “adjusted taxable income.”  Any disallowed amount may be carried forward indefinitely.

“Business interest” is interest paid by any taxpayer onor accrued with respect to indebtedness incurred or continued for the purpose of purchasing or carrying a tax-exempt obligation. A purposeallocable to carry tax-exempt obligations will be inferred whenever a taxpayer owns tax-exempt obligations and has outstanding indebtedness which is neither directly connected with personal expenditures nor incurred in connection with the active conduct of a trade or business.  It does not include investment interest expense.  The IRS may take30% limit applies to “adjusted taxable income.”  For the position thatfirst four years of this new limitation, a Unitholder’s allocable portionperson’s “adjusted taxable income” means taxable income from trade or business activities, computed before any deductions for interest, depreciation, amortization, net operating losses and the new pass-through deduction.  However, in the case of any interest paid bytaxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2022, depreciation and amortization deductions are not added back to income. As a result, there now is a lower limit on the Partnership on its borrowings, and any interest paid by a Unitholder on indebtedness incurred to purchase Units, should be viewed in whole or in part as incurred to enable such Unitholder to continue carrying such tax-exempt obligations and, therefore, that the deduction of any such interest by such Unitholder should be disallowed in whole or in part. To the extent the Partnership’s borrowings are deemed to be incurred by it for the purpose of financing its portfolio of mortgage revenue bonds, a Unitholder’s allocable portion of any interest paid by the Partnership on these borrowings will be disallowed.

In the absence of direct evidence linking debt with purchasing or carrying tax-exempt obligations (for example, the tax-exempt obligations that secure the debt), there is an exception to the interest disallowance rule if the taxpayer holds only an insubstantial amount of tax-exempt obligations. This exceptioninterest that may be deducted.  The Partnership does not applyexpect to banks, certain other financial institutions,have a trade or dealers in tax-exempt securities. However, to the extentbusiness that an investor’s debt would because interest allocated to purchasing or carrying its Units, such Units should onlyBUC holders to be treated as tax-exempt obligations for purposes of the interest disallowance rule in the same proportion as the assets of the Partnership comprise tax-exempt obligations (based on their adjusted tax basis or perhaps capital account value). The Partnership will report to Unitholders at the end of each year the average percentage of its assets (based on adjusted tax basis and capital account value) that were invested in obligations believed to be tax-exempt each year. It is uncertain whether an annual average or more frequent adjustments should be used.business interest.

Prospective investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the interest expense limitation rules.

Entity-Level Collections of Unitholder Taxes

If we are required or elect under applicable law to pay any U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. tax on behalf of any current or former Unitholder, we are authorized to treat the payment as a distribution of cash to the relevant Unitholder. Where the tax is payable on behalf of all Unitholders or we cannot determine the specific Unitholder on whose behalf the tax is payable, we are authorized to treat the payment as a distribution to all current Unitholders. We are authorized to amend our partnership agreement in the manner necessary to maintain uniformity of intrinsic tax characteristics of Units and to adjust later distributions, so that after giving effect to these distributions, the priority and characterization of distributions otherwise applicable under our partnership agreement is maintained as nearly as is practicable. Payments by us as described above could give rise to an overpayment of tax on behalf of a Unitholder, in which event the Unitholder may be entitled to claim a refund of the overpayment amount. Unitholders are urged to consult their tax advisors to determine the consequences to them of any tax payment we make on their behalf.

Limitation on Miscellaneous Itemized Deductions

For any taxable year beginning before January 1, 2026, a non-corporate taxpayer is prohibited from taking itemized deductions for miscellaneous expenses, or “miscellaneous itemized deductions.”  For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2026, these expenses (i) will be deductible by a non-corporate unitholder for regular U.S. federal income tax purposes only to the extent that the unitholder’s share of such expenses, when combined with other “miscellaneous itemized deductions,” exceeds 2% of its adjusted gross income for the particular year, (ii) will not be deductible by a non-corporate unitholder for U.S. federal alternative minimum tax purposes and (iii) will be subject to certain other limitations on deductibility.  These limitations would apply to non-corporate BUC holders if the proposed activities of the Partnership do not constitute a trade or business. There is a risk that the IRS may contend, in any taxable year, that each non-corporate BUC holder’s share of each of the Partnership’s otherwise deductible expenses constitutes a miscellaneous expense, potentially subject to disallowance through taxable years ending before January 1, 2026 and the two percent (2%) floor thereafter.  We believe that the proposed activities of the Partnership will constitute a trade or business, but there can be no assurance that the IRS will not assert a contrary position on audit.

Allocation of Income, Gain, Loss and Deduction.

In preparing the Partnership’s tax returns, and in determining the Unitholders’BUC holders’ allocable share of the Partnership’s items of income, gain, loss and deduction, the Partnership will utilize various accounting and reporting conventions, some of which are discussed herein. There is no assurance that the use of such conventions will produce a result that conforms to the requirements of the Code,IRC, Treasury Regulations, or IRS administrative pronouncements, and there is no assurance that the IRS will not successfully challenge the Partnership’s use of such conventions.


The Partnership generally allocates each item of its income, gain, loss or deduction among the General Partner and Unitholders in accordance with their respective percentage interests in the Partnership. However, the Partnership will make certain special allocations in connection with the issuance of new Partnership UnitsBUCs in accordance with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code.IRC. Upon the issuance of additional Units,BUCs, including UnitsBUCs issued in this offering, the Partnership expects that it will restate the “book” capital accounts of the existing UnitholdersBUC holders under applicable Treasury Regulations in order to reflect the fair market value of the Partnership’s assets at the time additional UnitsBUCs are issued. This restatement of the existing Unitholders’BUC holders’ book capital accounts measures any gain or loss inherent in Partnership assets at the time new UnitholdersBUC holders are admitted to the Partnership. Section 704(c) requires the Partnership to specially allocate certain items of gain or loss among the UnitholdersBUC holders in order to


eliminate differences between their book capital accounts (which now reflect the fair market value of Partnership property on the date the new UnitsBUCs are issued) and their tax capital accounts (which reflect the Partnership’s tax basis in these assets). The effect of the allocations under Section 704(c) to a UnitholderBUC holder purchasing UnitsBUCs in the offering will be essentially the same as if the tax basis of our assets were equal to the fair market value of our assets at the time of the offering.

Effects

Treatment of Securities Loans

A Unitholder whose units are loaned (for example, a Section 754 Election. The Partnership has madeloan to “short seller” to cover a short sale of Units) may be treated as having disposed of those Units. If so, such Unitholder would no longer be treated for tax purposes as a partner with respect to those Units during the election permitted by Section 754period of the Code. This election is irrevocable without the consent of the IRS. As discussed below, the election generally permits the Partnership to adjust the tax basis of certain of its assets to reflect the purchase prices paid by purchasers of Units from existing Unitholders. Generally, when Units are purchased from an existing Unitholder (rather than being acquired directly from the Partnership, such as in an offering), the purchaser’s tax basis in those Units (referred to as the purchaser’s “outside basis”) initially will equal the purchase price he or she paid for the Units. However, the purchaser’s outside basis does not necessarily reflect his or her proportionate share of the Partnership’s tax basis in its assets (referred to as the purchaser’s “inside basis”) at the time of purchase,loan and this difference may have tax consequences to the purchaser. Because the Partnership has made a Section 754 election, the Partnership will make an adjustment under Section 743(b) of the Code to a purchaser’s “inside basis” in the Partnership’s assets so that those assets reflect the price such purchaser paid for his or her Units. As a result, a purchaser of Units will have an inside basis in our assets consisting of (1) such Unitholder’s share of our tax basis in our assets at the time of the purchase of Units (“common basis”) and (2) such Unitholder’s Section 743(b) adjustment to that basis. The Section 743(b) adjustment affects only the inside basis of the purchaser’s portion of Partnership assets and does not affect other Unitholders.

A basis adjustment is required under Section 743(b) regardless of whether a Section 754 election is made if Units are transferred at a time when the Partnership has a substantial built-in loss in its assets immediately after the transfer, or if the Partnership distributes property and has a substantial basis reduction. Generally, a built-in loss or a basis reduction is substantial if it exceeds $250,000.

A Section 743(b) basis adjustment is advantageous to a purchaser of Units if the purchaser’s outside basis in his or her Units is higher than such purchaser’s inside basis. In that case, as a result of the election, the purchaser would, among other things, be allocated a greater amount of depreciation and amortization deductions (assuming the Partnership has depreciable or amortizable assets) and his or her allocable share of any gain on a sale of Partnership assets would be less than it would be absent such adjustment. Conversely, a Section 743(b) basis adjustment is disadvantageous to a purchaser of Units if the purchaser’s outside basis in his or her Units is lower than such purchaser’s inside basis because it would cause such purchaser to be allocated a lesser amount of the Partnership’s depreciation and amortization deductions and his or her allocable share of any gain on a sale of Partnership assets would be greater than it would be absent such adjustment.

The allocation of any Section 743(b) adjustment among the Partnership’s assets must be made in accordance with the Code, but will involve a number of assumptions and the application of judgment by the General Partner. Accordingly, the IRS could challenge some of these allocations and, for example, seek to allocate some or all of any Section 743(b) adjustment from tangible assets that may be amortized or depreciated to goodwill or other asset classes that are either nonamortizable or amortizable over a longer period of time. We cannot assure you that the determinations the Partnership makes will not be successfully challenged by the IRS and that the deductions resulting from them will not be reduced or disallowed altogether. Should the IRS require a different basis adjustment to be made, and should, in the opinion of the General Partner, the expense of compliance exceed the benefit of the election, the General Partner may seek permission from the IRS to revoke the Partnership’s Section 754 election. If


permission is granted, a subsequent purchaser of Units may be allocated more income than he or she would have been allocated had the election not been revoked.

Furthermore, strict adherence to Treasury Regulations in making certain Section 743(b) adjustments could result in tax differences among Unitholders that adversely affect the continued uniformity of the tax characteristics of BUCs. As a result, the General Partner has adopted certain 743(b) adjustment methods or conventions that are designed to preserve the uniformity of BUCs, but that may be inconsistent with certain Treasury Regulations. Please see “– Uniformity of BUCs”.  Baird Holm LLP is unable to opine as to the validity of these methods and conventions because there is no clear authority on these issues. If the IRS successfully challenged any method used by the General Partner for making the Section 743(b) adjustments, the uniformity of BUCs might be affected, and the gain or loss realized by a BUC holder from the sale of BUCs might be affected.

Uniformity of BUCs. Because BUCs trade in the public market and many BUCs are held in street name by banks, brokers and other nominees, the Partnership cannot match transferors and transferees of BUCs. As a result, we must maintain uniformity of the economic and tax characteristics of the BUCs to a purchaser of BUCs. In the absence of uniformity, the Partnership may be unable to completely comply with a number of federal income tax requirements under the Code and the Treasury Regulations. A lack of uniformity can result from a literal application of Treasury Regulations pertaining to the Partnership’s method of depreciating or amortizing its Section 743(b) adjustments or from a determination that certain curative allocations designed to prevent the application of Treasury Regulation “ceiling limitations” as it attempts to eliminate book and tax disparities are unreasonable.

The Partnership has adopted reasonable Section 743(b) adjustment methods and other conventions to preserve the uniformity of the intrinsic tax characteristics of BUCs, none of which should have a material adverse effect on the Unitholders. Baird Holm LLP has not opined on the validity of any of these positions. The IRS may challenge any method of accounting for the Section 743(b) adjustment or other methods or conventions adopted by the Partnership. If any such challenge were sustained, the uniformity of BUCs, and the resultingrecognize gain or loss from the saledisposition. As a result, during this period (i) any of our income, gain, loss or deduction allocated to those BUCs, mightUnits would not be affected.reportable by the lending Unitholder, and (ii) any cash distributions received by the Unitholder as to those Units may be treated as ordinary taxable income.

Due to a lack of controlling authority, Unitholders desiring to assure their status as partners and avoid the risk of income recognition from a loan of their Units are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding possible alternatives.  The IRS has announced that it is studying issues relating to the tax treatment of short sales of partnership interests. Please read “– Disposition of Units. There are a number of federal income tax considerations arising from the sale of Units including:

BUCs – Recognition of Gain or Loss.

Tax Treatment of Operations

Accounting Method and Taxable Year

We use the year ending December 31 as our taxable year and the accrual method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Each BUC holder will be required to include in its tax return its allocable share of items of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Partnership for the Partnership’s taxable year ending within or with the holder’s taxable year.  A BUC holder that has a taxable year ending on a date other than December 31 and that disposes of all its Units following the close of our taxable year but before the close of its taxable year will be required to include in income for its taxable year its allocable share of items of income, gain, loss and deduction, with the result that the holder will be required to include in income for its taxable year its share of more than 12 months of our income, gain, loss, and deduction.

Tax Basis, Depreciation and Amortization

The tax basis of each of our assets will be used for purposes of computing depreciation and cost recovery deductions and, ultimately, gain or loss on the disposition of these assets. If we dispose of depreciable property by sale, foreclosure or otherwise, all or a portion of any gain, determined by reference to the amount of depreciation deductions previously taken, may be subject to the recapture rules and taxed as ordinary income rather than capital gain. Similarly, a BUC holder who has taken cost recovery or depreciation deductions with respect to property we own will likely be required to recapture some or all of those deductions as ordinary income upon a sale of its interest in us. Please read “– Tax Consequences of BUCs Ownership – Allocation of Income, Gain, Loss and Deduction.”

The costs we incur in offering and selling our BUCs (called “syndication expenses”) generally must be capitalized and cannot be deducted currently, ratably or upon our termination. While there are uncertainties regarding the classification of certain costs as organization expenses, which may be amortized by us, and as syndication expenses, which may not be amortized by us, the underwriting discounts and commissions we incur will be recognizedtreated as syndication expenses. Please read “Disposition of BUCs – Recognition of Gain or Loss.”

We are allowed a first-year bonus depreciation deduction equal to 100% of the adjusted basis of certain depreciable property acquired and placed in service after September 27, 2017 and before January 1, 2023. For property placed in service during subsequent years, the deduction is phased down by 20% per year until December 31, 2026. This depreciation deduction applies to both new and used property. However, use of the deduction with respect to used property is subject to certain anti-abuse restrictions, including the requirement that the property be acquired from an unrelated party. We can elect to forgo the depreciation bonus and use the alternative depreciation system for any class of property for a taxable year.


Disposition of BUCs

Recognition of Gain or Loss

A BUC holder will be required to recognize gain or loss on a sale or other disposition of Unitssuch BUCs equal to the difference between the BUC holder’s amount realized by the selling Unitholder and his or her tax basis in the UnitsBUCs sold. TheA BUC holder’s amount realized by a Unitholder from the sale of Unitsgenerally will be measured byequal the sum of the cash orand the fair market value of other property received by such selling Unitholder plus his or her share ofit receives for the Partnership’s nonrecourse liabilities, if any, attributable to the Units sold.BUCs. Gain or loss recognized by a Unitholder, other than a “dealer” in Units,BUC holder on the sale or exchange of Units held for one year or less will generally be taxable as a short-term capital gain or loss.

Gain or loss recognized by a Unitholder, other than a “dealer” in Units, on the sale or exchange of UnitsBUC held for more than one year generally will generally be taxable as a long-term capital gain or loss.Capital gain recognized by an individual on the sale of Units held for more than twelve months will generally be taxed at the U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to long-term capital gains. However, a portion of this gain or loss, which will likelymay be substantial, will be separately computed and taxed as ordinary income or loss under Section 751 of the CodeIRC to the extent attributable to assets giving rise to “unrealized receivables,” including potential recapture itemsSection 751 Assets, such as depreciation recapture or toand our “inventory gains” we own.items,” regardless of whether such inventory item has substantially appreciated in value.

Thus, a UnitholderBUC holder may recognize both ordinary income and a capital gain or loss upon a sale or exchange of Units. Capital lossesa BUC.

Both ordinary income and capital gain recognized on a sale of Units may be subject to the NIIT in certain circumstances. Please read "– Tax Rates.”per year.


TheFurthermore, as described above, the IRS has ruled that a partner who acquires interests in a partnership in separate transactions must combine those interests and maintain a single adjusted tax basis for all of those interests. Uponinterests (presumably including both BUCs and preferred units).

Special rules apply to determining the basis and holding period of a sale or other disposition ofBUC holder’s BUCs where less than all of those interests, a portion of that tax basis must be allocated to the interests sold using an “equitable apportionment” method, which generally means that the tax basis allocated to theBUC holder’s interest sold equals an amount that bears the same relation to the partner’s tax basis in his entire interest in the partnership as the value of the interest sold bears to the value of the partner’s entire interest in the partnership. Treasury Regulations under Section 1223 of the Code allow a selling Unitholder who can identify Units transferred with an ascertainable holding period to elect to use the actual holding period of the Units transferred. Thus, according to the ruling discussed above, a Unitholder will be unable to select high or low basis Units to sell as would be the case with corporate stock, but, according to the Treasury Regulations, he may designate specific Units sold for purposes of determining the holding period of Units transferred.is sold.  A Unitholder electing to use the actual holding period of Units transferred must consistently use that identification method for all subsequent sales or exchanges of Units. A UnitholderBUC holder considering the purchase of additional UnitsBUCs or a sale of UnitsBUCs purchased in separate transactions is urged to consult hisits tax advisor as to the possible consequences of this ruling and application of the Treasury Regulations.

Specific provisions of the Code affect the taxation of some financial products and securities, including partnership interests, by treating a taxpayer as having sold an “appreciated” partnership interest, one in which gain would be recognized if it were sold, assigned or terminated at its fair market value, if the taxpayer or related persons enter(s) into:

a short sale;

an offsetting notional principal contract; or

a futures or forward contract;

in each case, with respect to the partnership interest or substantially identical property.

Moreover, if a taxpayer has previously entered into a short sale, an offsetting notional principal contract or a futures or forward contract with respect to the partnership interest, the taxpayer will be treated as having sold that position if the taxpayer or a related person then acquires the partnership interest or substantially identical property. The Secretary of the Treasury is also authorized to issue regulations that treat a taxpayer that enters into transactions or positions that have substantially the same effect as the preceding transactions as having constructively sold the financial position.

Allocations Between Transferors and Transferees. In general, taxable income or loss will be determined annually, will be proratedTransferees

Holders of BUCs owning BUCs on a monthly basis and will be subsequently apportioned among the Unitholders, in proportion to the number of Units beneficially owned by each of them as of the closing of trading on the last business day of a month. However, gain or loss realized on a sale or other disposition of Partnership assets other than in the ordinary course of business will be allocated among the Unitholders beneficially owning Units as of the closing of trading on the last business day of a month in which that gain or loss is recognized. As a result, a Unitholder acquiring Units may be allocated income, gain, loss and deduction realized prior to the date of transfer. The use of this method may not be permitted under existing Treasury Regulations. Accordingly, Baird Holm LLP is unable to opine on the validity of this method of allocating income and deductions between transferor and transferee Unitholders. The General Partner uses this method because it is not administratively feasible to make these allocations on a more frequent basis. If this method is not allowed under the Treasury Regulations or only applies to transfers of less than all of the Unitholder’s interest, the Partnership’s taxable income or losses might be reallocated among the Unitholders. The General Partner is authorized to revise the method of allocation between transferor and transferee Unitholders, as well as Unitholders whose interests vary during a taxable year, to conform to a method permitted under future Treasury Regulations.

A Unitholder who owns Units at any time during a quarter and who disposes of them prior to the record date set for a cashof any declared distribution for that quarter(the “Allocation Date”) will be allocated itemsentitled to receive the distribution payable with respect to their Units. Purchasers of our income, gain, loss and deductions attributable to that quarter butBUCs after the Allocation Date will therefore not be entitled to receive thata cash distribution.distribution on their BUCs until the next Allocation Date.

Payment for servicesBUCs generally is deductiblerequired to notify us in writing of that transaction within 30 days after the transaction (or, if earlier, January 15 of the paymentsyear following the transaction in the case of a seller). Upon receiving such notifications, we are ordinaryrequired to notify the IRS of that transaction and necessary expenses, are reasonable in amount and are for services performed during the taxable year in which paid or accrued. The Partnership anticipates that a substantial portion of its ordinary expenses will be allocable to tax-exempt interest income.

Uniformity of Units

Because we cannot match transferors and transferees of BUCs, we must maintain uniformity of the economic and tax characteristics of the BUCs to tax-exempt income in calculating theira purchaser of these BUCs.  In the absence of uniformity, we may be unable to completely comply with a number of U.S. federal income tax liability. Borrowers pay certain fees they incur in connection with obtaining financingrequirements, both statutory and regulatory.  A lack of uniformity can result from the Partnership directlyapplication of certain depreciation and amortization methods.  Any non-uniformity could have a negative impact on the value of the BUCs.  Barnes & Thornburg LLP has not rendered an opinion with respect to the General Partner. The Partnership treats these fees as earned directly by the General Partner for services it renders to the borrowers. It is possible thatour specific methods of depreciation and amortization, and the IRS could contend such fees shouldmay challenge these methods.  If this challenge were sustained, the uniformity of BUCs might be treated as additional taxable income toaffected, and the Partnership and additional expense. If such position were asserted and upheld, it would result ingain from the Partnership recognizing additional taxable income, but all or a substantial portionsale of the additional expense would be disallowed. In addition, depending on the amount of such income relative to the Partnership’s other income, it could result in the Partnership being treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation.

The IRS may not agree with the Partnership’s determinations as to the deductibility of fees and expenses andBUCs might require that certain expenses be capitalized and amortized or depreciated over a period of years. If all or a portion of such deductions were to be disallowed, on the basis that some of the foregoing expenses are non-deductible syndication fees or otherwise, the Partnership’s taxable income would be increased without the benefit of additional deductions.  Please read “ – Disposition of BUCs – Recognition of Gain or its losses would be reduced.Loss.”

Treatment


Tax-Exempt Organizations and Other Investors

Ownership of Syndication Expenses. ExceptUnits by employee benefit plans and other tax-exempt organizations as discussed below, neither the Partnership nor any Unitholder is permittedwell as by non-resident alien individuals, non-U.S. corporations and other non-U.S. persons (collectively, “Non-U.S. Unitholders”) raises issues unique to deduct, forthose investors and may have substantially adverse tax consequences to them. Prospective Unitholders that are tax-exempt entities or Non-U.S. Unitholders should consult their tax advisors before investing in our Units. Employee benefit plans and most other tax-exempt organizations, including IRAs and other retirement plans, are subject to U.S. federal income tax purposes, amounts paid or incurred to sell or market Units in the Partnershipon unrelated business taxable income (“syndication expenses”UBTI”). The determination as to whether or not expenses are syndication expenses is a factual determination which will initially be made by the Partnership. The IRS could challenge the Partnership’s determination expenses are not syndication expenses.

Backup Withholding. Distributions to Unitholders whose Units are held on their behalf by a “broker” may constitute “reportable payments” under the federalA portion of our income tax rules regarding “backup withholding.” Backup withholding, however, would apply only if the Unitholder (i) failed to furnish its Social Security number or other taxpayer identification number of the person subjectallocated to the backup withholding requirement (e.g., the broker) or (ii) furnished an incorrect Social Security number or taxpayer identification number. If “backup withholding” were applicableUnitholders may be UBTI and, accordingly, will be taxable to a Unitholder, the Partnership would be required to withhold 24% of each distribution to such Unitholdertax-exempt Unitholder.

Administrative Matters

Information Returns and to pay such amount to the IRS on behalf of such Unitholder.Audit Procedures

Issuance of Additional Units. The Partnership may issue new Units to additional investors to finance the acquisition of additional investments. On any issuance of additional Units, the Partnership expects that it will adjust the capital accounts of the existing Unitholders for capital account maintenance purposes under applicable Treasury Regulations in order to reflect a revaluation of the Partnership’s assets (based on their then fair market value, net of liabilities to which they are then subject).

Tax Returns, Audits, Interest and Penalties. We intend to furnish to each Unitholder, within 90 days after the close of each taxable year, specific tax information, including a Schedule K-1, which describes its share of our income, gain, loss and deduction for our preceding taxable year. In preparing this information, which will not be reviewed by counsel, we will take various accounting and reporting positions, some of which have been mentioned earlier, to determine each Unitholder’s share of income, gain, loss and deduction. We cannot assure our Unitholders that those positions will yield a result that conforms to all of the requirements of the Code,IRC, Treasury Regulations or administrative interpretations of the IRS.

The IRS may audit our U.S. federal income tax information returns. Neither we nor Baird Holm LLP canWe cannot assure prospective Unitholders that the IRS will not successfully challenge the positions we adopt, and such a challenge could adversely affect the value of our Units. Adjustments resulting from an IRS audit may require each Unitholder to adjust a prior year’s tax liability, and possibly may result in an audit of the Unitholder’s own return. Any audit of a Unitholder’s return could result in adjustments unrelated to our returns.


The tax treatment of partnership items of income, gain, loss and deduction are determined in a partnership proceeding rather than in separate proceedings for each of the partners. Pursuant to the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, if the IRS makes audit adjustments to our income tax returns, it (and some states) may assess and collect any taxes (including any applicable penalties and interest) resulting from such audit adjustment directly from us, unless we elect to have our General Partner, Unitholders, and former Unitholders take any audit adjustment into account in accordance with their interests in us during the taxable year under audit. Similarly, for such taxable years, if the IRS makes audit adjustments to income tax returns filed by an entity in which we are a member or partner, it may assess and collect any taxes (including penalties and interest) resulting from such audit adjustment directly from such entity.

Generally, we expect

Our Partnership Representative (defined below) may, but is not required to, elect to have our General Partner, Unitholders, and former Unitholders take any suchan audit adjustment into account in accordance with their interests in us during the taxable year under audit, but there can be no assurance that suchaudit.  If this election will be effectiveis not made, or if other adjustments are made with respect to an entity in all circumstances. Ifwhich we are unablea partner or if it ismember and that does not economical to havesimilarly elect our Unitholders and former Unitholders take such audit adjustment into account in accordance with their interests in us during the taxable year under audit, then our current Unitholders may bear some or all of the tax liability resulting from such audit adjustment, even if such Unitholders did not own our Units during the taxable year under audit. If, as a result of any such audit adjustment, we are required to make payments of taxes, penalties or interest, we may require out Unitholders and former Unitholder to reimburse us for such taxes (including any applicable penalties or interest) or, if we bear such payment directly, our cash available for distribution to our Unitholders might be substantially reduced. These rules still are not applicable for taxable years beginning on or prior to December 31, 2017. Congress has proposed changes to the Bipartisan Budget Act,fairly new, and we anticipate that amendments may be made. Accordingly, the manner in which these rulesthey may apply to us in the future is uncertain.

Additionally, pursuant to the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, the Code no longer requires that we designate a Tax Matters Partner. Instead, for

For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, we are required towill designate a partner, or other person, with a substantial presence in the United States as the partnership representative (“Partnership Representative”).  The General Partner has been designated as the Partnership Representative.  The Partnership Representative haswill have the sole authority to act on our behalf for purposes of, among other things, U.S. federal income tax audits and judicial review of administrative adjustments by the IRS. If we do not make such a designation, the IRS can select any person as the Partnership Representative. We currently anticipate that we will designate our General Partner as the Partnership Representative. Further, any actions taken by us or by the Partnership Representative on our behalf with respect to, among other things, U.S. federal income tax audits and judicial review of administrative adjustments by the IRS, will be binding on us and all of our Unitholders.


Accuracy-Related Penalties

Certain penalties may be imposed as a result of an underpayment of tax that is attributable to one or more specified causes, including negligence or disregard of rules or regulations, substantial understatements of income tax and substantial valuation misstatements. No penalty will be imposed, however, for any portion of an underpayment if it is shown that there was a reasonable cause for the underpayment of that portion and that the taxpayer acted in good faith regarding the underpayment of that portion. We do not anticipate that any accuracy-related penalties will be assessed against us.

State, Local, Foreign and Foreign Income Taxes. Other Tax Considerations

In addition to the U.S. federal income tax consequences described above, Unitholders should consider potential state, local and foreign tax consequences of an investment in the Partnership and are urged to consult their individual tax advisors in this regard. The rules of some states, localities and foreign jurisdictions for computing and/or reporting taxable income may differ from the federal rules. Interest income that is tax-exempt for federal purposes is generally subject to state taxes, except in the state in which the property securing the Partnership’s investment and the bond issuer are located. All the bonds and interest income thereon may be subject to taxation by localities and foreign jurisdictions. An investment in the Partnership’s Units could also require Unitholders to file tax returns in various jurisdictions, although the Partnership is not aware of any current filing obligations.

Under the tax laws of certain states, the Partnership may be subject to state income or franchise tax or other taxes applicable to the Partnership. Such taxes may decrease the amount of distributions available to Unitholders. Unitholders are advised to consult with their tax advisors concerning the tax treatment of the Partnership, and the effects under the tax laws of the states applicable to the Partnership and its Unitholders.

Tax-Exempt Unitholders. A Unitholder that is a tax-exempt organization for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, therefore, generally exempt from U.S. federal income taxation, may nevertheless be subject to “unrelated business income tax” to the extent, if any, that its allocable share of our income consists of “unrelated business taxable income,” or UBTI. A tax-exempt partner in a partnership (or an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that regularly engages in a trade or business which is unrelated to the exempt function of the tax-exempt partner must include in computing its UBTI, its pro rata share (whether or not distributed) of such partnership’s gross income derived from such unrelated trade or business. Moreover, such tax-exempt partner could be treated as earning UBTI to the extent that such entity derives partnership income from


“debt-financed property,” or if the partnership interest itself is debt financed. Debt-financed property means property held to produce income with respect to which there is “acquisition indebtedness” (i.e., indebtedness incurred in acquiring or holding property).

We expect that we will incur “acquisition indebtedness” with respect to certain of our assets. To the extent we recognize taxable income in the form of interest from debt securities with respect to which there is “acquisition indebtedness” during a taxable year, the percentage of such income that will be treated as UBTI generally will be equal to the amount of such income times a fraction, the numerator of which is the “average acquisition indebtedness” incurred with respect to the securities, and the denominator of which is the “average amount of the adjusted basis” of the securities during the period such securities are held by us during the taxable year. To the extent we recognize gain from disposition of securities with respect to which there is “acquisition indebtedness,” the portion of the gain that will be treated as UBTI will be equal to the amount of the gain times a fraction, the numerator of which is the highest amount of the “acquisition indebtedness” with respect to the securities during the twelve-month period ending with the date of their disposition, and the denominator of which is the “average amount of the adjusted basis” of the securities during the period such securities are held by us during the taxable year. In addition, tax-exempt U.S. Unitholders may be subject to other taxes, including state and local income taxes, unincorporated business taxes and estate, inheritance or intangibles taxes that may be imposed by the AMT with respect tovarious jurisdictions in which we conduct business or own property now or in the future or in which the Unitholder is a resident. We conduct business or own property in many states in the United States. Some of these states may impose an income tax on individuals, corporations and other entities. As we receive from anymake acquisitions or expand our business, we may own property or conduct business in additional states that impose a personal income tax. Although an analysis of our debt-financed mortgage revenue bonds.

Because we expect to incur “acquisition indebtedness” with respect to certainthose various taxes is not presented here, each prospective unitholder should consider the potential impact of our assets, we expect that tax-exempt Unitholders will recognize a significant amount of “unrelated business taxable income” as a result of ansuch taxes on its investment in our Units. Accordingly, prospective purchasers who are tax-exempt organizations are urgedus.

A Unitholder may be required to consult their tax advisors concerning the possible U.S. federal, state, local, and non-U.S. tax consequences arising from an investment in our Units.

Partnerships. If an entity or arrangement which is treated as a partnership for U.S. federalfile income tax purposes is a Unitholder, the U.S. federalreturns and pay income tax treatment of a partnertaxes in such partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner, the activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner level. A partner of a partnership that is a Unitholder should consult its tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to the partner of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our Units.

Non-U.S. Unitholders. Whether an investment in our Units is appropriate for a non-U.S. person will depend upon that person’s particular circumstances. An investment in our Units by a non-U.S. person may have adverse U.S. federal, state and /some or local tax consequences for such non-U.S. person. Non-U.S. persons should consult their tax advisors before investing in our Units.

For purposes of the following discussion, a “non-U.S. Unitholder” is a beneficial owner of our Units that is neither (i) an individual that is a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation) created or organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii) an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source, nor (iv) a trust (a) the administration over which a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision and (b) all of the substantial decisions of which one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control.

Non-U.S. Unitholders generally will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a 30% rate on their allocable Units of the gross amount of our dividend income, any taxable interest income, rental income, and any other fixed or determinable annual or periodical income received from sources within the United States that is not treated as effectively connected with a trade or business within the United States. The 30% rate may be reduced or eliminated under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty between the United States and the countryjurisdictions in which a non-U.S.we do business or own property, though such Unitholder resides or is organized, provided the non-U.S. Unitholder provides the applicable withholding agent with the required certification (generally, on IRS Form W8-BEN). Under the “portfolio interest exemption,” the 30% withholding tax doesmay not apply to certain interest income from obligations of U.S. persons allocable to certain non-U.S. Unitholders (provided certain requirements are met and the required certification is made by the non-U.S. Unitholder). In general, the “portfolio interest exception” does not apply to contingent interest. Moreover, a non-U.S. Unitholder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its allocable share of our capital gains unless (i) such gains are effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business of such non-U.S. Unitholders (and, if an income tax treaty is applicable, such gains are not attributable to a permanent establishment in the United States maintained by such non-U.S. Unitholder) or (ii) such non-U.S.


Unitholder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 or more days during the taxable year and satisfies certain other conditions. In general, gains from U.S. real property interests (including certain rights to contingent interest) are deemed effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business.

Non-U.S. Unitholders treated as engaged in a U.S. trade or business are generally subject to U.S. federal income tax at the graduated rates applicable to U.S. persons on their net income which is considered to be effectively connected with such U.S. trade or business. Non-U.S. Unitholders that are corporations may also be subject to a 30% branch profits tax on such effectively connected income. The 30% rate applicable to branch profits may be reduced or eliminated under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty between the United States and the country in which the non-U.S. person resides or is organized.

We expect that our method of operation will result in us generating income treated (or deemed treated) as effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business with respect to non-U.S. Unitholders. If a non-U.S. Unitholder were treated as being engaged in a U.S. trade or business in any year because an investment in our Units in such year constituted a U.S. trade or business, such non-U.S. Unitholder generally would be required to (i) file a U.S. federalreturn and pay taxes in certain jurisdictions because its income tax return forfrom such year reporting its allocable share, if any, of our income or loss effectively connected with such trade or businessjurisdictions falls below the jurisdiction’s filing and (ii) pay U.S. federal income tax at regular U.S. tax rates on any such income. Moreover,payment requirement. Further, a corporate non-U.S. Unitholder generally would be subject to a U.S. branch profits tax on its allocable share of our effectively connected income. In addition, a non-U.S. Unitholder would be subject to withholding at the highest applicable rate with respect to such non-U.S. Unitholder’s allocable share of our effectively connected income. Any amount so withheld would be creditable against such non-U.S. Unitholder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, and such non-U.S. Unitholder could claim a refund to the extent that the amount withheld exceeded such non-U.S. Unitholder’s U.S. federal income tax liability for the taxable year. Finally, if we are engaged in a U.S. trade or business, a portion of any gain recognized by a non-U.S. Unitholder on the sale or exchange of its Units may be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as effectively connected income, and hence such non-U.S. Unitholder may be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the salepenalties for a failure to comply with any filing or exchange. To the extent our income is treated as effectively connected income, it may also be treated as non-qualifying income for purposespayment requirement applicable to such Unitholder. Some of the Qualifying Income Exception discussed above under “Treatmentjurisdictions may require us, or we may elect, to withhold a percentage of the Partnership asincome from amounts to be distributed to a Publicly Traded Partnership.”

In general, different rules from those described above apply in the case of non-U.S. Unitholders subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law, including a non-U.S. Unitholder (i) that has an office or fixed place of business in the United States or is otherwise carrying on a U.S. trade or business; (ii) who is an individual present in the United States for 183 or more days or hasnot a “tax home” in the United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes; or (iii) who is a former citizen or resident of the United States.

Prospective purchasers who are non-U.S. persons are urged to consult theirjurisdiction. Withholding, the amount of which may be greater or less than a particular Unitholder’s income tax advisors with regardliability to the U.S. federaljurisdiction, generally does not relieve a nonresident Unitholder from the obligation to file an income tax consequences to them of acquiring, holding and disposingreturn.

Under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Units, as well as the effects of state, local, and non-U.S. tax laws.

Additional Withholding Requirements. Under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) enacted as part of the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act, as well as guidance in the form ofIRC, applicable Treasury regulations and other administrativeadditional guidance (“FATCA”), the relevant withholding agent mayPartnership generally will be required to withhold a 30% oftax from any interest, dividends,“withholdable payments” it makes, or is treated as making, to any Non-U.S. Unitholder that is an entity unless such Non-U.S. Unitholder provides certain certifications and other fixed or determinable annual or periodical gains, profits, and income from sources withininformation to the United States paid after June 30, 2014 or gross proceeds from the sale of any property of a type which can produce interest or dividends from sources within the United States paid after December 31, 2016Partnership sufficient to (i) a foreign financial institution (for which purposes includes foreign broker-dealers, clearing organizations, investment companies, hedge funds, and certain other investment entities) unless such foreign financial institution agrees to verify, report, and disclose its U.S. accountholders and meets certain other specified requirements or (ii) a non-financial foreign entityestablish that is a beneficial owner of the payment unless such entity certifies that it does not have any substantial U.S. owners or provides the name, address, and taxpayer identification number of each substantial U.S. owner and such entity meets certain other specified requirements or otherwise qualifies for an exemption from, this withholding. If withholding is required underor an appropriate reduction of, the FATCA tax (including information generally relating to its U.S. owners, if any).  For purposes of FATCA, “withholdable payments” are defined, in relevant part, as payments of U.S.-source fixed, determinable annual or periodical income.

Moreover, the Treasury Department and the IRS have issued proposed regulations that (i) provide that the FATCA tax will not be imposed on a payment, investorsgross proceeds from the disposition of property that can produce U.S. source dividends or interest, as otherwise would not be subjecthave been the case after December 31, 2018, (ii) delay the time for the application of the FATCA tax to withholding (or that otherwise would be entitledforeign passthru payments (which are attributable to withholdable payments) to a reduced ratedate no earlier than two years after the date of withholding)publication of final Treasury regulations applicable to foreign passthru payments, and (iii) state that taxpayers may rely on such payment generally will be required to seek a refund or credit fromthese provisions of the IRS to obtain the benefit of such exemption or reduction (provided that such benefitproposed regulations until final regulations are issued.


is available).

Prospective investors shouldare urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of FATCA on their ownership and disposition of our Units.

Tax Rates. Currently, the highest marginal U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to ordinary income of individuals is 37% and the highest marginal U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to long-term capital gains (generally, capital gains on certain assets held for more than twelve months) of individuals is 20%. Such rates are subject to change by new legislation at any time.

In addition, a 3.8% Medicare tax (NIIT) is imposed on certain net investment income earned by individuals, estates and trusts. For these purposes, net investment income generally includes a Unitholder's allocable share of our income and gain realized by a Unitholder from a sale of Units. In the case of an individual, the tax will be imposed on the lesser of (i) the Unitholder's net investment income or (ii) the amount by which the Unitholder's modified adjusted gross income exceeds $250,000 (if the Unitholder is married and filing jointly or a surviving spouse), $125,000 (if the Unitholder is married and filing separately) or $200,000 (in any other case). In the case of an estate or trust, the tax will be imposed on the lesser of (i) undistributed net investment income, or (ii) the excess adjusted gross income over the dollar amount at which the highest income tax bracket applicable to an estate or trust begins for such taxable year. The U.S. Departmentconsequences of the Treasury andPartnership having a withholding obligation under the IRS have issued Treasury Regulations that provide guidance regarding the NIIT. Prospective Unitholders are urged to consult with their tax advisors as to the impact of the NIIT on an investment in our Units.FATCA tax.

For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, and ending on or before December 31, 2025, a non-corporate Unitholder is entitled to a deduction equal to 20% of its "qualified business income" attributable to us, subject to certain limitations. For purposes of this deduction, a Unitholder's "qualified business income" attributable to us is equal to the sum of:

the net amount of such Unitholder's allocable share of certain of our items of income, gain, deduction and loss (generally excluding certain items related to our investment activities, including capital gains and dividends, which are subject to a federal income tax rate of 20%); and

any gain recognized by such Unitholder on the disposition of its Units to the extent such gain is attributable to certain Section 751 assets, including depreciation recapture and "inventory items" we own.

Prospective Unitholders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of this deduction and its interaction with the overall deduction for qualified business income.

Recent Legislative Developments

The present federal income tax treatment of publicly traded partnerships or an investment in our Units may be modified by administrative, legislative or judicial interpretation at any time. For example, from time to time, members of Congress and the President propose and consider substantive changes to the existing federal income tax laws that affect the tax treatment of publicly traded partnerships.

On December 22, 2017, the President signed into law comprehensive U.S. federal tax reform legislation that significantly reforms the Code. This legislation, among other things, contains significant changes to the taxation of our operations and an investment in our Units, including a partial limitation on the deductibility of certain business interest expenses, a deduction for our Unitholders relating to certain income from partnerships, immediate deductions for certain new investments instead of deductions for depreciation over time and the modification or repeal of many business deductions and credits. We continue to examine the impact of this tax reform legislation, and as its overall impact is uncertain, we note that this tax reform legislation could adversely affect the value of an investment in our Units. Prospective Unitholders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the impact of this tax reform legislation on an investment in our Units.

Additional modifications to the federal income tax laws and interpretations thereof may or may not be retroactively applied and could make it more difficult or impossible to meet the exception for us to be treated as aIT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF EACH UNITHOLDER TO INVESTIGATE THE LEGAL AND TAX CONSEQUENCES, UNDER THE LAWS OF PERTINENT JURISDICTIONS, OF THEIR INVESTMENT IN US. WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT EACH PROSPECTIVE UNITHOLDER CONSULT, AND DEPEND UPON, ITS OWN TAX COUNSEL OR OTHER ADVISOR WITH REGARD TO THOSE MATTERS. FURTHER, IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF EACH UNITHOLDER TO FILE ALL STATE, LOCAL AND NON-U.S., AS WELL AS U.S. FEDERAL TAX RETURNS THAT MAY BE REQUIRED OF


partnership for federal income tax purposes. Please read "– Partnership Status”. We are unable to predict whether any such changes will ultimately be enacted. However, it is possible that a change in law could affect us, and any such changes could negatively impact the value of an investment in our Units.

Other U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations

The Code contains certain provisions that could result in other tax consequences as a result of the ownership of mortgage revenue bonds by the Partnership or the inclusion in certain computations including, without limitation, those related to the corporate Alternative Minimum Tax, of interest that is excluded from gross income.

Ownership of tax-exempt obligations by the Partnership may result in collateral tax consequences to certain taxpayers, including, without limitation, financial institutions, property and casualty insurance companies, certain foreign corporations doing business in the United States, certain S corporations with excess passive income, individual recipients of social security or railroad retirement benefits and individuals otherwise eligible for the earned income credit. Prospective purchasers of the Partnership’s Units should consult their own tax advisors as to the applicability of any such collateral consequences.

ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or ERISA, and the Internal Revenue Code impose restrictions on (a) employee benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA); (b) plans described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code, including individual retirement accounts or Keogh plans; (c) any entities whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan’s investment in such entities (each item described in (a), (b) or (c) being a “plan”); and (d) persons who have specified relationships to those plans, i.e., “parties-in-interest” under ERISA, and “disqualified persons” under the Internal Revenue Code.  ERISA also imposes certain duties on persons who are fiduciaries of plans subject to ERISA and prohibits certain transactions between a plan and parties-in-interest or disqualified persons with respect to such plans.  Certain federal, state, local, and non-U.S. or other laws or regulations that are similar to the relevant provisions of ERISA or the CodeIRC (“Similar Laws”) may also impose restrictions on employee benefit plans and/or persons who are fiduciaries of plans subject to the Similar Laws.

The AcquisitionThis summary is based on the provisions of ERISA and Holdingthe IRC (and related regulations and administrative and judicial interpretations) as of Our Securitiesthe date of this prospectus. This summary does not purport to be complete and future legislation, court decisions, administrative regulations, rulings or administrative pronouncements could significantly modify the requirements summarized below. Any of these changes may be retroactive and, therefore, may apply to transactions entered into prior to the date of their enactment or release.

An investment in our BUCs by aGeneral Fiduciary Matters

ERISA and the IRC impose certain duties on persons who are fiduciaries of an employee benefit plan that has a relationship as “parties-in-interest” or “disqualified persons” could be deemedis subject to constitute a transaction prohibited under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (e.g.,IRC, which we refer to as an “ERISA Plan,” and prohibit certain transactions involving the indirect transferassets of an ERISA Plan and its fiduciaries or other interested parties. Under ERISA and the IRC, any person who exercises any discretionary authority or control over the administration of such an ERISA Plan or the management or disposition of the assets of an ERISA Plan, or who renders investment advice for a fee or other compensation to an ERISA Plan, is generally considered to be a fiduciary of the ERISA Plan. In considering an investment in our BUCs, preferred units, or use by party-in-interestdebt securities with any portion of the assets of an employee benefit plan, a fiduciary of the employee benefit plan should consider, among other things, whether the investment is in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the employee benefit plan and the applicable provisions of ERISA, the IRC or any applicable Similar Law relating to the fiduciary’s duties to the employee benefit plan, including, without limitation:

(a)

whether the investment is prudent under Section 404(a)(1)(B) of ERISA and any other applicable Similar Laws;

(b)

whether, in making the investment, the employee benefit plan will satisfy the diversification requirements of Section 404(a)(1)(C) of ERISA and any other applicable Similar Laws;

(c)

whether making the investment will comply with the delegation of control and prohibited transaction provisions under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code and any other applicable Similar Laws (see “– Prohibited Transaction Issues” below);

(d)

whether in making the investment, the employee benefit plan will be considered to hold, as plan assets, (1) only the investment in our securities, or (2) an undivided interest in our underlying assets (see “– Plan Asset Issues” below”); and

(e)

whether the investment will result in recognition of unrelated business taxable income by the employee benefit plan and, if so, the potential after-tax investment return.  See “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” above.



Prohibited Transaction Issues

Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the IRC prohibit employee benefit plans (and certain IRAs that are not considered part of an employee benefit plan) from engaging in certain transactions involving “plan assets” with parties that are “parties in interest” under ERISA or “disqualified persons” under the IRC with respect to the employee benefit plan or IRA, unless an exemption is applicable. A party in interest or disqualified person of assets ofwho engages inplan).  Such transactionsnon-exempt prohibited transaction may however, be subject to one excise taxes and other penalties and liabilities under ERISA and the IRC. In addition, the fiduciary of the ERISA Plan that engaged in such a non-exempt prohibited transaction may be subject to excise taxes, penalties and liabilities under ERISA and the IRC.

The acquisition and/or moreholding of the debt securities by an ERISA Plan with respect to which we or the initial purchasers are considered a party in interest or a disqualified person, may constitute or result in a direct or indirect prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the IRC, unless the debt securities are acquired and held in accordance with an applicable statutory, class, or administrative exemptions such as aindividual prohibited transaction exemption. In this regard, the U.S. Department of Labor has issued prohibited transaction class exemption (a “PTCE”) including, for example,exemptions, or PTCEs, that may apply to the acquisition, holding and, if applicable, conversion of the debt securities. These class exemptions include, without limitation, PTCE 84-14 respecting transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers, PTCE 90-1 which exempts certain transactions involvingrespecting insurance company pooled separate accounts, PTCE 91-38 which exempts certain transactions involvingrespecting bank collective investment funds, PTCE 84-14, which exempts certain transactions effected on behalf of a plan by a “qualified professional asset manager,” PTCE 95-60 which exempts certain transactions involvingrespecting life insurance company general accounts, and PTCE 96-23 which exempts certainrespecting transactions effected on behalf of a plandetermined by an “in-housein-house asset manager” or another available exemption.  Such exemptions may not, however, apply tomanagers. There can be no assurance that all of the transactions that couldconditions of any such exemptions will be deemedsatisfied.

Because of the foregoing, our BUCs, preferred units, and/or the debt securities may not be purchased or held (or converted to equity securities, in the case of any convertible debt) by any person investing “plan assets” of any employee benefit plan, unless such purchase and holding (or conversion, if any) will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transactions in connection with a plan’s investment.transaction under ERISA or the IRC or similar violation of any applicable Similar Laws.

Plan Asset Issues

In connection with an investment in the BUCs, preferred units, or debt securities with any portion of the assets of an employee benefit plan, in addition to considering whether the purchase of our BUCs, preferred units, and/or debt securities is a prohibited transaction, a fiduciary of an employee benefit plan should consider whether the plan will, by investing in our BUCs,securities, be deemed to own an undivided interest in our assets, with the result that our General Partner also would be a fiduciary of the plan and our operations would be


subject to the regulatory restrictions of ERISA, including its prohibited transaction rules, as well as the prohibited transaction rules of the CodeIRC and any other applicable Similar Laws. In addition, if our assets are deemed to be “plan assets” under ERISA, this would result, among other things, in (a) the application of the prudence and other fiduciary responsibility standards of ERISA to investments made by us, and (b) the possibility that certain transactions in which we seek to engage could constitute “prohibited transactions” under the Code,IRC, ERISA, and any other applicable Similar Laws.

The Department of Labor regulations, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA, provide guidance with respect to whether, in certain circumstances, the assets of an entity in which employee benefit plans acquire equity interests would be deemed “plan assets.” Under these regulations, an entity’s underlying assets generally would not be considered to be “plan assets” if, among other things:

 

(a)

the equity interests acquired by the employee benefit plan are “publicly offered securities” – i.e., the equity interests are part of a class of securities that are widely held by 100 or more investors independent of the issuer and each other, “freely transferable” (as defined in the applicable Department of Labor regulations), and either part of a class of securities registered pursuant to certain provisions of the federal securities laws or sold to the plan as part of a public offering under certain conditions;

 

(b)

the entity is an “operating company” – i.e., it is primarily engaged in the production or sale of a product or service other than the investment of capital either directly or through a majority-owned subsidiary or subsidiaries, or it qualifies as a “venture capital operating company” or a “real estate operating company;” or


 

(c)

there is no “significant” investment by benefit plan investors (as defined in Section 3(42) of ERISA), which is defined to mean that, immediately after the most recent acquisition of an equity interest in any entity by an employee benefit plan, less than 25% of the total value of each class of equity interest, (disregarding certain interests held by our General Partner, its affiliates, and certain other persons who have discretionary authority or control with respect to the assets of the entity or provide investment advice for a fee with respect to such assets) is held by the employee benefit plans that are subject to part 4 of Title I of ERISA (which excludes governmental plans and non-electing church plans) and/or Section 4975 of the Code,IRC, IRAs, and certain other employee benefit plans not subject to ERISA (such as electing church plans).

With respect to an investment in our BUCs, we believe that our assets should not be considered “plan assets” under these regulations because it is expected that the General Partner believesinvestment will satisfy the Partnership qualifies for the exception under the plan asset regulations set forthrequirements in (a) above.  The General Partner intends to take such steps asabove and may be necessary to maintainalso satisfy the availabilityrequirements in (b) and/or (c) above (although there is little applicable Department of this “publicly offered securities” exception to the plan asset regulations and thereby prevent the Partnership’s assets from being treated as assets of any investing plan.

Fiduciary Considerations

Any plan fiduciary that proposes to cause a plan to purchase our BUCs should consult with its counselLabor guidance with respect to whether we may qualify as an “operating company” as required for compliance with (b), and we do not monitor the potential applicability of ERISA, the Code, and Similar Laws to such investment and determine on its own whether any exceptions or exemptions are applicable and whether all conditions of any such exceptions or exemptions have been satisfied.  Moreover, each plan fiduciary should determine whether, under the general fiduciary standardslevel of investment prudence, diversification, and liquidity that may apply under ERISA, the Code, or applicable Similar Laws, an investment in our securities is appropriateby benefit plan investors as required for the plan, taking into account the overall investment policy of the plan and the composition of the plan’s investment portfolio. Each plan fiduciary should determine whether an investment in our BUCs is authorized by the appropriate governing instruments of the plan. The sale of our securities is in no respect a representation by us or any other person that such an investment meets all relevant legal requirementscompliance with respect to investments by plans generally or that such an investment is appropriate for any particular plan.(c)).

The foregoing discussion of issues arising for employee benefit plan investments under ERISA, the Code,IRC and applicable Similar Laws is general in nature and is not intended to be all inclusive, nor should it be construed as legal advice. Plan fiduciaries and other persons contemplating a purchase of our BUCs, preferred units, and/or debt securities should consult with their own counsel regarding the potential applicability of and consequences of such purchase under ERISA, the IRC, and other Similar Laws in light of the complexity of these rules and the serious penalties, excise taxes and liabilities imposed on persons who engage in non-exempt prohibited transactions or other violations. The sale of any BUCs, preferred units, and/or debt securities by or to any employee benefit plan is in no respect a representation by us or any of our affiliates or representatives that such an investment meets all relevant legal requirements with respect to investments by such employee benefit plans generally or any particular employee benefit plan, or that such an investment is appropriate for such employee benefit plans generally or any particular employee benefit plan.

Representation

By purchase or acceptance of the BUCs, preferred units, and/or debt securities, each purchaser and subsequent transferee of such securities will be deemed to have represented and warranted that either (i) no portion of the assets used by such purchaser or transferee to acquire and hold the securities constitutes assets of any employee benefit plan, or (ii) the purchase and holding (and any conversion, if applicable) of the securities by such purchaser or transferee will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the IRC or similar violation under any applicable Similar Laws.  



PLAN OF DISTRIBUTIONDISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplements to or through one or more underwriters, brokers, or dealers, or we may sell the securities to investors directly or through agents, or through a combination of any of these methods of sale.  Any underwriter or agent involved in the offer and sale of our securities will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement.  We may sell securities directly to investors on our own behalf in those jurisdictions where we are authorized to do so.

Underwriters may offer and sell our securities at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices.  We also may, from time to time, authorize dealers or agents to offer and sell securities on the terms and conditions described in the applicable prospectus supplement.  In connection with the sale of our securities, underwriters may receive compensation from us in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions and may also receive commissions from purchasers of the securities for whom they may act as agent.  Underwriters may sell these securities to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, or commissions from the underwriters or commissions from the purchasers for which they may act as agents.

Our BUCssecurities may also be sold in one or more of the following transactions: (a) block transactions (which may involve crosses) in which a broker-dealer may sell all or a portion of the securities as agent but may position and resell all or a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; (b) purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its own account pursuant to a prospectus supplement; (c) a special offering, an exchange distribution, or a secondary distribution in accordance with applicable NASDAQ (or, following the transfer of the listing of the BUCs, the NYSE) or other stock exchange rules; (d) ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which a broker-dealer solicits purchasers; (e) sales “at the market” to or through a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise, for securities; and (f) sales in other ways not involving market makers or established trading markets, including direct sales to purchasers. Broker-dealers may also receive compensation from purchasers of our securities which is not expected to exceed customary compensation in the types of transactions involved.

Any underwriting compensation paid by us to underwriters or agents in connection with the offering of securities, and any discounts or concessions or commissions allowed by underwriters to participating dealers, will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.  Dealers and agents participating in the distribution of our securities may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts and commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions.

Underwriters, dealers, and agents may be entitled, under agreements entered into with us, to indemnification against and contribution toward certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.  Unless otherwise set forth in the accompanying prospectus supplement, the obligations of any underwriters to purchase any of our securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities then being sold, if any is purchased.

Underwriters, dealers, and agents may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us and our affiliates in the ordinary course of business.

In connection with the offering of securities described in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement, certain underwriters, selling group members, and their respective affiliates may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the market price of the security being offered.  These transactions may include stabilization transactions effected in accordance with Rule 104 of Regulation M promulgated by the SEC pursuant to which these persons may bid for or purchase securities for the purpose of stabilizing their market price.  The underwriters in an offering of our securities may also create a “short position” for their account by selling more securities in connection with the offering than they are committed to purchase from us.  In that case, the underwriters could cover all or a portion of the short position by either purchasing the securities in the open market following completion of the offering or by exercising any over-allotment option granted to them by us.  In addition, the managing underwriter may impose “penalty bids” under contractual arrangements with other underwriters, which means that they can reclaim from an underwriter (or any selling group member participating in the offering) for the account of the other underwriters, the selling concession for the securities that are distributed in the offering


but subsequently purchased for the account of the underwriters in the open market.  Any of the transactions


described in this paragraph or comparable transactions that are described in any accompanying prospectus supplement may result in the maintenance of the price of our securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market.  None of the transactions described in this paragraph or in an accompanying prospectus supplement are required to be taken by any underwriters and, if they are undertaken, may be discontinued at any time.

Our BUCs are currently listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “ATAX.”  We intend to transfer the listing of our BUCs to the NYSE.  Upon the commencement of trading of the BUCs on the NYSE, we expect the BUCs to trade under the symbol “GHI.” Any underwriters or agents to or through which BUCs are sold by us may make a market in our BUCs, but these underwriters or agents will not be obligated to do so and any of them may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. None of our Existing Preferred Units are listed on any national securities exchange.  No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of or trading market for any of our securities.

Because the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) views our BUCs as interests in a direct participation program, any offering of BUCs under the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part will be made in compliance with Rule 2310 of the FINRA Conduct Rules.

To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. The place and time of delivery for the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered will be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating thereto.

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the validity of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Barnes & Thornburg LLP, Indianapolis, Indiana.  The description of federal income tax consequences in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” is based on the opinion of Baird HolmBarnes & Thornburg LLP.  Legal counsel to any underwriters may pass upon legal matters for such underwriters and will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Item 17.  Undertakings.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(a)To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(1)To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

II-2


(2)To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(3)To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

Provided, however, that, paragraphs (a)(1), (a)(2), and (a)(3) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

(b)That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c)To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(d)That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

(1)Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(2)Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.


(e)That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

II-3


(1)Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(2)Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(3)The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(4)Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(f)The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(g)Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(h)The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

(1)For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registrationregistration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2)For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. 


(i)The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed under the Commission under Section 305(b)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act.
