Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement or the relevant LTIP Agreement, Holders of LTIP Units shall be allocated Net Income, Net Loss and depreciation and amortization expenses of the Partnership in amounts per LTIP Unit determined in the same manner as amounts allocated per Partnership Common Unit are determined; provided, however, that for any LTIP Unit that initially has a Sharing Percentage that is less than 100%, until the Catch-Up Year (if any) for such LTIP Unit, the amounts so allocated with respect to such LTIP Unit pursuant to Section 6.2A(3) or Section 6.2B of the Agreement shall be equal to the product of such Sharing Percentage and the amount that would otherwise be allocable with respect to such LTIP Unit pursuant to this Section 4(a). The allocations provided by the preceding sentence shall be subject to Section 6.3B of the Agreement and any special allocations required by Section 4(b) or Section 4(c) hereof. The General Partner is authorized in its discretion to delay or accelerate the participation of the LTIP Units in allocations of Net Income, Net Loss and depreciation and amortization expenses of the Partnership under this Section 4(a), or to adjust the allocations made under this Section 4(a), so that the ratio of (i) the total amount of Net Income, Net Loss and depreciation and amortization expenses of the Partnership allocated with respect to each LTIP Unit in any taxable year, to (ii) the total amount distributed with respect to that LTIP Unit for such taxable year, is more nearly equal to the ratio of (i) the Net Income, Net Loss and depreciation and amortization expenses of the Partnership allocated with respect to the Partnership Common Units for such taxable year, to (ii) the amounts distributed with respect to the Partnership Common Units for such taxable year.
