FOR

FOR
RABANCO COMPANIES
This agreement is entered into on November 25, 1985, 1985, between SEATTLE DISPOSAL CO., RABANCO LTD., RENOSA PARTNERS, R & B ASSOCIATES, EASTSIDE PARTNERS, AIRPORT WAY ASSOCIATES, PAPER FIBERS CO., and IDEAL PAPER STOCK CORP. |
SECTION 1 — PURPOSE
1.01Name and Business. The name of the partnership will be RABANCO COMPANIES. The partnership is formed for the specific purpose of acquiring and operating refuse businesses and for purchasing and holding real estate for investment purposes, and developing land, and investing in real properties. In addition, the partnership may buy, lease, rent, or otherwise acquire and own real and personal property, improved or unimproved, or any right or interest therein; manage, improve, or develop such property; mortgage, sell, lease, assign, transfer, or otherwise dispose of such property or any interest therein; and transact any or all lawful business for which a partnership may be formed under the Washington Uniform Partnership Act.
1.02Place of Business. The principal office of the partnership will be located at 9 South Massachusetts Street, Seattle, Washington 98134. The partnership may also conduct business at such additional places as the partners may agree.
SECTION 2 — CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS
2.01Contributions. The partners will contribute to the partnership on or before December 31, 1985 all of their assets and liabilities except (a) real property and purchase money indebtedness secured by such real property and (b) other assets and liabilities set forth on Exhibit A.
2.02Capital Accounts. A separate capital account will be maintained for each partner. The amount of each partner’s capital account will be equal to the sum of the cash plus the adjusted basis of the property contributed by that partner as his initial contribution to the partnership capital, plus the cash and the adjusted basis of other property contributed to the partnership as additional contributions to partnership capital, plus his share of partnership income, less his share of partnership losses, and less the amount of money and the adjusted basis of any partnership property distributed to him.
2.03Additional Capital Contributions.
(a) Whenever it is determined that additional capital is required for the conduct of the partnership business, then:
To the extent such capital is to be used to expand or aid in the operation of a division or profit center contributed by a particular partner, that partner shall be required to make the capital contribution. To the extent such capital contribution is to be used to aid or expand the partnership generally then each partner will contribute his pro rata share of the additional capital required, in proportion to its
2
interest in non-allocated items of income, loss deduction and credit as set forth in Section 6.01.
The determination that additional capital is required will be made as follows:
The managing partner may in any fiscal year require additional capital contributions not exceeding from all the partners a total amount of $500,000.
The management committee may require an unlimited amount of additional capital contributions.
(b) If any partner fails to contribute his share of additional capital within twenty (20) days after it is determined that additional contributions are necessary, the contributing partners may contribute the required amount to the partnership, on behalf of the noncontributing partners. Any such contributions will be deemed to be loans from the contributing partners to the noncontributing partners. The loans will be repaid by the noncontributing partners directly to the contributing partners. The loans will bear interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, or at a rate equal to the Peoples Bank prime rate plus three percent (3%) per annum, whichever is greater, determined as of the date the loan is made and adjusted every three (3) months thereafter. Until the loans have been repaid in full, the contributing partners may require any distributions from the partnership otherwise payable to the noncontributing partners to instead be paid directly to the contributing partners in repayment of the loans.
3
2.04Return of Capital Contributions. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, no partner will have the right:
(a) To demand or receive the return of any part or all of his capital account or of his contribution to the partnership capital; or
(b) To demand or receive property other than cash in return for his contribution to the partnership capital.
2.05Interest on Capital Contributions. No partner will have the right to receive any interest on his capital account or on his contributions to the partnership capital.
SECTION 3 — COMPENSATION
3.01Salaries of Partners. No partner will have the right to receive any salary or other compensation for his services except as expressly authorized by the Management Committee.
3.02Reimbursement of Expenses. Each partner will be entitled to reimbursement for all costs and expenses reasonably incurred on behalf of the partnership.
SECTION 4 — MANAGEMENT
4.01Managing Partners/Management Committee.
(a) All decisions required to be made in the ordinary course of business on a day-to-day basis will be made by RABANCO, LTD. which will be the “Managing Partner” of the partnership.
(b) Any decisions which are not in the ordinary course of business on a day-to-day basis will be made by the
4
“Management Committee,” which will consist of JOSIE RAZORE, WARREN J. RAZORE, JOHN BANCHERO, SR., AND JOHN BANCHERO, JR. Such Management Committee decisions include but are not limited to the following:
(1) Borrowing an amount in excess of $500,000 on behalf of the partnership.
(2) Lending an amount in excess of $500,000 on behalf of the partnership.
(3) Selling, exchanging, leasing, encumbering, or otherwise transferring all or substantially all of the partnership assets or all or substantially all of the assets of any profit center or division of the partnership.
(4) Distributions of cash to the partners in excess of those distributions required under Section 8.
(5) The acquisition of any new business by the partnership or by any profit center or division and the interest in that new business, if any, to be allocated to each profit center or division.
(6) The addition of any new partners.
(c) Upon the death, resignation, or incapacity of any Razore member of the Management Committee, the surviving or remaining Razore member of the Management Committee will appoint a successor to fill the vacancy. If there is then no remaining Razore member of the Management Committee, the members of the Razore family who then own interests in the partners of the partnership will appoint two successors to fill the two Razore vacancies.
5
(d) Upon the death, resignation or incapacity of a Banchero member of the Management Committee, the surviving or remaining Banchero member of the Management Committee will appoint a successor to fill the vacancy. If there are then no remaining Banchero members of the Management Committee, the members of the Banchero family who then own interests in the partners of the partnership will appoint two successors to fill the two Banchero vacancies.
4.02Vote of the Partners.
(a) All partnership decisions will be made by a unanimous vote of the Management Committee, except as otherwise specifically provided herein.
(b) A partner may authorize another partner or an agent of a corporate partner or of a partnership that is a partner to vote its interest in the partnership, by giving written notice of such authorization to the managing partner. The authorization may be revoked at any time by giving written notice of such revocation to the managing partner. The managing partner will promptly mail copies of such authorization or revocation to all of the partners.
SECTION 5 — FINANCIAL RECORDS AND ACCOUNTING
5.01Partnership Records.
(a) The partnership’s financial records will be kept on a basis consistent with the accounting methods followed by the partnership for federal income tax purposes.
6
(b) The partnership books and records will be kept at the partnership office, and will be available for all partners, partners of partnership partners, and shareholders of corporate partners (or their duly authorized representatives) to inspect and copy during reasonable business hours.
5.02Fiscal Year. The partnership’s financial records and income tax returns will be kept on a calendar year basis.
5.03Partnership Tax Returns.
(a) Each partner and any partners or shareholders of partners that are partnerships or corporations will be provided with a copy of the partnership’s tax returns and information regarding the partnership’s taxable income or loss and each spearately stated item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit that is relevant in reporting partnership income (including that partner’s distributive share of each such item). This information will be furnished to the partners as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal year (but no later than sixty (60) days after the end of each fiscal year).
(b) The Management Committee will designate a “Tax Matters Partner.” The tax matters partner will be responsible for representing the partnership in any audit of its income tax returns, and will have such other duties as are provided in IRC 6223 et seq. In exercising his authority, the tax matters partner will first consult with the Management Committee. Selection of tax counsel, selection of a forum to
7
contest a position taken by the Internal Revenue Service, and any compromise or settlement affecting other partners will require the approval of the Management Committee, provided that this requirement is consistent with income tax regulations.
SECTION 6 — ALLOCATIONS
6.01Allocation of Gain and Loss. Following the initial contribution of assets to the partnership in exchange for partnership interests, divisions or profit centers will be established through which the business of each of the contributing partners shall continue to be conducted. The assets of each contributing partner will be allocated to a separate division or profit center. If new or additional assets are needed by a division or profit center, they will be acquired by that division or profit center. Each item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of each profit center for each fiscal year will be allocated to the partner who contributed the initial assets making up that particular division or profit center.
To the extent the partnership acquires additional assets or conducts businesses that are not specifically allocated to a contributed profit center or division or to a group of contributed profit centers or divisions (unallocated assets or businesses), each partner shall be allocated a portion of the taxable income or loss and each separately stated item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit generated by those unallocated assets or businesses corresponding to that
8
partner’s interest in the profits of the partnership for that partnership taxable year determined on the basis of only those profits attributable to businesses that are specifically allocated to contributed profit centers or divisions or to groups of contributed profit centers or divisions. In making this computation for the allocation of unallocated partnership profits and losses, divisional losses will not be taken into account.
The preceding allocation of gains and losses from assets and businesses that are not specifically allocated to a contributed profit center or division can be illustrated by the following example: Assume in a taxable year that Partner A had income from businesses specifically allocated to that partner of $50,000, Partner B had income of $30,000, Partner C had losses of $40,000, and the other partners each had no net gains or losses. In making the allocation of gains or losses from assets or businesses that are not specifically allocated to a contributed profit center or division, Partner A will be allocated five-eighths (5/8ths) of the profits and losses, Partner B three-eights (3/8ths), and none of the other partners will share in the allocation.
In the event that no partners have any gains attributable to assets and businesses that are specifically allocated to contributed profit centers or divisions, then each partner shall be allocated an equal amount of the taxable income or loss and each separately stated item of income, gain, loss,
9
deduction, or credit that is generated by the unallocated assets or businesses.
6.02Allocations During The Year In Which A Shift In A Partner’s Interest Occurs. If there is any change in the percentage profits interest in the partnership held by any partner or if a partner sells his interest in the partnership, the allocations provided for in Section 6.01 above will be allocated between the tranferor and transferee based upon the respective portions of the year that the tranferor and transferee held such interests as if the period between such changes were separate fiscal years.
SECTION 7 — DISTRIBUTIONS
As soon as practical after the end of each fiscal year (but no later than sixty (60) days after the end of each fiscal year), the partnership will distribute to the partners an amount equal to the total hypothetical federal income tax liability payable by that partner (in the case of a partnership partner, this will be based upon the assumption that the partnership is a taxpaying entity) with respect to its allocable share of partnership income for that fiscal year. In determining this amount, the deductions and credits which are passed through to the partners with respect to such income will be taken into account, and it will be assumed that each partner is taxed at the then existing highest marginal rate for individuals. The amount computed in the preceding two sentences will be increased by an amount equal to salaries, |
10
operating expenses and other required distributions which the partners of this partnership are required to pay and which were not paid by this partnership.
The Management Committee is authorized to distribute additional funds to partners who have capital accounts in excess of that which is needed for the business and the Management Committee shall authorize such distributions when appropriate on either a pro rata or a non-pro rata basis.
SECTION 8 — WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS
A partner may elect to withdraw from the partnership at any time by giving written notice of such election to the managing partner at least six (6) months prior to the date of withdrawal. Any partner of a partnership partner or shareholder of a corporate partner may exercise this withdrawal right and no withdrawal of any partner from this partnership shall terminate this partnership. The managing partner will promptly mail copies of any withdrawal notice to all of the partners. Each partner agrees that in the event the provisions of the second sentence of this Section 8 conflict with any provision of any agreement or document regulating or restricting the internal management rights of a particular partner, such as Bylaws, Stockholders Agreements or Partnership Agreements, then the provisions of the second sentence of this Section 8 shall control and to that extent such documents or agreements are hereby deemed amended.
11
In the event of such withdrawal, the withdrawing partner shall be entitled to receive the then existing assets subject to the then existing liabilities of the profit center or profit centers that were initially contributed by that partner as well as any assets subject to any liabilities subsequently acquired by that profit center. Unless otherwise agreed, the withdrawing partner shall be required to assume any recourse liabilities of the profit center being distributed. |
The withdrawing partner shall also be entitled to receive an additional distribution based on the value of any assets and liabilities not allocated to a profit center or division. In determining the amount of this distribution, all such non-allocated assets shall be revalued to reflect fair market value and the capital accounts of all partners shall be adjusted to reflect how such gain or loss would have been allocated under Section 6.01 if such non-allocated assets had been sold. An amount of cash (or cash and non-allocated assets) shall then be distributed to such partner equal to such partner’s capital account as so adjusted and increased by any non-allocated liabilities assumed by the withdrawing partner and decreased by any non-allocated liabilities from which such partner is deemed to have been relieved because of the distribution.
To the extent any withdrawing partner has a deficit in its capital account as adjusted in accordance with this Section 8, it will be required to restore such deficit to the partnership at the time of withdrawal.
12
SECTION 9 — DISSOLUTION
9.01Definition and Effect. Upon the occurrence of any of the following events, the partnership will be dissolved and liquidated pursuant to Section 9.02:
(a) The determination of the Management Committee to dissolve the partnership.
(b) The entry of a decree of judicial dissolution pursuant to RCW 25.04.320.
(c) The entry of a decree adjudicating the partnership to be bankrupt.
(d) The liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy, of any partner, unless such partner’s partnership interest is transferred pursuant to Section 10.02 to a permitted successor partner that is not bankrupt.
(e) The voluntary or involuntary transfer of any of a partner’s partnership interest to anyone other than a permitted transferee under Section 10.02.
9.02Liquidation. The liquidation of the partnership will proceed as follows:
(a) The partnership’s activities will be limited to the winding up of its affairs and the distribution of its assets in an orderly manner. The partnership will be managed during liquidation by the Management Committee (excluding any member of this committee who is in breach of this Agreement).
(b) The partners will continue to share profits and bear losses as provided in this Areement during the winding up period.
13
(c) Any profit center or division contributed by any partner or any partner’s predecessor-in-interest shall be distributed to that partner together with all liabilities associated with that profit center or division.
(d) To the extent any assets or liabilities of the partnership are not allocated to one of the contributed profit centers or divisions, such assets and liabilities shall be allocated in accordance with each partner’s capital account. In making this allocation, all such non-allocated assets shall be revalued to reflect fair market value and the capital accounts of all partners shall be adjusted to reflect how such gains or losses would have been allocated under Section 6.01 if such non-allocated property had been sold and such gain allocated in accordance with the allocation of profits and losses during the preceding taxable year. An amount of cash or non-allocated property shall be distributed to each partner in proportion to each partner’s capital account as so adjusted, increased by any non-allocated liabilities assumed and decreased by any non-allocated liabilities from which such partners are deemed to be relieved because of the distribution.
(e) To the extent that any partner has a deficit in his capital account, such partner shall be required to restore that deficit to the partnership at the time of the liquidation distribution.
(f) No liquidating distribution of partnership assets shall take place until all partnership liabilities have
14
been paid or other arrangements for the payment of such liabilities have been made.
(g) The partnership will not terminate until the winding up, liquidation of the partnership assets, and distribution of proceeds are completed.
SECTION 10 — TRANSFERS OF PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS
10.01Restriction on Transfers of Partnership Interests. No partner (nor the spouse, employee or agent of any partner) may sell, assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge, grant a security interest in, or otherwise dispose of his interest in the partnership, his right to participate in management, his rights to specific partnership property, or any other right or interest he may have in the partnership, nor may he enter into any agreement as a result of which any other person or entity will obtain any right or interest in the partnership, except as specifically permitted in this agreement.

15
corporation, partnership, or other entity in which voting control is held by any of those persons or entities.

10.03Admission or Substitution of a Partner.
(a) Permitted transferees will be admitted as partners when the requirements of this paragraph have been satisfied. No other persons or entities will be admitted or substituted as partners unless the approval of the Management Committee has been obtained and the following instruments have
16
been submitted in a form satisfactory to the Management Committee:

(3) All other instruments reasonably required to complete the admission or substitution.
SECTION 11 — GENERAL PROVISIONS

A person may change his mailing address by sending written notice of the new mailing address to the Managing Partner.
11.02Partnership Meetings. All decisions required to be made by a vote of the partners will be made at a partnership meeting (unless all of the partners entitled to vote thereon agree otherwise in writing). A partnership meeting may be called by any of the partners. Notice of a partnership meeting will be given to all the partners at least twenty (20) days prior to the meeting, unless all of the partners sign a written waiver of notice.
