For purposes hereof, in order to determine the proportionate allocations of depreciation and amortization deductions for each fiscal year or other applicable period, such deductions shall be deemed allocated on the same basis as Net Income and Net Loss for such respective period.

(i) shall be recharacterized as debt, which shall be allocated between acquisition and development costs (a “Deemed A&D Loan”) and funding for the sale of Timeshare Interests (a “Deemed Hypothecation Loan”), in the manner hereafter set forth. Such debt shall (A) bear interest at the rate (or blended rate) equal to the rate(s) on any actual debt financing for the Project, if any, then in place for such purpose, or, if no such debt financing then exists, at the prime rate of interest in effect from time to time established by The First National Bank of Chicago, and (B) be amortized over a period calculated in accordance with Section 6.2(c) hereof, with respect to a Deemed A&D Loan, or amortized over a seven (7) year period, with respect to each advance of a Deemed Hypothecation Loan; and

(D) the General Partner shall next allocate any remaining monies, if any, to, pay the Pritzker Preferred Return and reduce the Deemed Equity Portion, until such time as the Pritzker Preferred Return has been paid in full.
The amortization period for a Deemed A&D Loan shall be determined in good faith by the General Partner and KWVC based on reasonable unit week release prices for Timeshare Interests which would be sufficient to fully payoff such Deemed A&D Loan (if it were an actual A&D Loan) over the period of sales of Timeshare Interests; provided, however, that notwithstanding any such period, the Deemed A&D Loan will be deemed to have matured and be due in full upon the sale of all of the Timeshare Interests for such Qualifying Project.
(iii) In the event that such distribution occurs after the date on which all Timeshare Interests in the Project have been sold and closed and the Deemed A&D Loan has been paid in full, the Deemed Loan Portion shall be deemed to be entirely a Hypothecation Loan made in accordance with the provisions of Section
