5 Agenda Getting Started Initial Diligence Translating the Business Deal to Tax Partnership Allocation Building Blocks Layered Allocations v. Target Allocations Examples Oil & Gas Partnerships Special Allocations and Other Considerations Page
6 Getting Started Initial Diligence
7 Initial diligence understanding the non-tax objectives Is the business deal accurately reflected in allocation and distribution provisions of the partnership agreement? Is the partnership agreement fully defined and does it account for contingencies? - What is each partner entitled to upon liquidation? - Confirm no gaps in business deal - Modeling - Anticipate tax compliance challenges Who are the stakeholders and do they have special interests? 7
8 Initial diligence the partnership agreement Liquidation provision: cash or allocation driven Allocations Distributions, including tax distributions, if any Defined terms (e.g., GAAP, tax, 704(b) net or gross items of income and loss) Industry specific provisions: - Simulated gain, loss, depletion - Carried interest holdbacks and clawbacks - Investor givebacks - Earn-outs Tax information, reporting, and control (e.g., BBA audit rules) 8
9 Initial diligence the partnership agreement Other agreements - Side letters - Management agreements - Other arrangements Effect of local law Intent of parties - enforceable? Retroactive amendments - Made before the due date (without extension) of partnership return - Subject to 706(d) limitation 9
10 Translating the Business Deal to Tax
11 Translating the business deal Generally reflected in allocation and distribution provisions Common forms - Allocation-driven provisions - Cash-driven provisions - Forced capital account provisions Tax certainty versus business certainty - Capital account approach driven by 704(b) allocations - Liquidations based on Specific percentages Specific amounts Target capital accounts Complicated deals generally result in complicated agreements 11
12 Business deal to tax brief review Tax follows book generally - Allocate 704(b) book items, applying bottom-line allocation rule. - Translate book to tax 704(c) - Same whether layered allocations or target allocations Other considerations - 704(e)(2), 706(d), assignment of income principles - 704(d) and Debt-equity - Disguised sales - Substance-over-form principles 12
13 Partnership Allocation Building Blocks
14 Overview of Partnership Allocations 704 allows partners to determine how partnership items are shared in their partnership agreements The controlling principle of the 704(b) regulations is economic substance, i.e., tax must follow economics Allocations contained in the partnership agreement are valid if they satisfy any one of the three regulatory tests: - the allocations have substantial economic effect (the SEE safe harbor ); - the allocations are in accordance with the partners interests in the partnership ( PIP ); or - the allocations are deemed to be in accordance with PIP 14
15 Substantial Economic Effect Safe Harbor The partnership agreement must meet the economic effect test. Capital accounts maintained in accordance with 704(b); Liquidating distributions are made according to positive capital account balances; and either - Each partner is obligated to restore any deficit balance in its capital account upon the liquidation of a partnership ( DRO ). OR - The partnership agreement meets the alternate test for economic effect. Contains qualified income offset ( QIO ) provision that allocates income to restore a partner s negative capital account caused by an unexpected distribution Limits allocations of losses 15
16 Substantial Economic Effect Safe Harbor Each partnership allocation must meet three substantiality tests. Reasonable possibility that allocations affect substantially the dollars to be received by the partner independent of tax consequences Allocations are not substantial if: - One helped, none hurt Determined on present-value, after-tax basis Look at attributes of partner - Shifting - Transitory 16
17 Substantial Economic Effect Safe Harbor Shifting Allocations - Strong likelihood that allocations do not change the partner s capital account for that year, and the total tax liability of partners is reduced - Example: special allocation of capital losses to a partner - Look for allocations based on character Transitory Allocations - Allocation in one year largely offset by allocations in a later year - Strong likelihood that the allocations do not change the partner s capital account for the taxable years to which they relate, and the total tax liability of partners is reduced - 5-year rule - Example: special allocation of loss in year one, offset by special allocation of gross income in year two - Look for allocations based on timing Value = basis rule 17
18 Partner s Interest in the Partnership ( PIP ) Generally, PIP reflects the manner in which the partners have agreed to share the economic benefit or burden (if any) corresponding to the income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit (or item thereof) that is allocated. Non-exclusive factors considered in determining PIP: - The partners relative contributions to the partnership, - The interests of the partners in economic profits and losses (if different than that in taxable income or loss), - The interests of the partners in cash flow and other non-liquidating distributions, and - The rights of the partners to distributions of capital upon liquidation. Comparative liquidation test: - Capital account maintenance and capital account driven - Deemed liquidation at 704(b) book value 18
19 Partner s Interest in the Partnership ( PIP ) Economic effect equivalence test - Allocations are deemed to have economic effect provided that, at the end of each tax year, a liquidation of the partnership would produce the same economic results as would occur if the substantial economic effect test had been satisfied regardless of the economic performance of the partnership. - Value=basis rule does not apply. - Difficult to establish absent simple facts. PIP is relatively simple in concept, but it can be complex in practice. Reasonable minds can differ. 19
20 Layered Allocations v. Target Allocations
21 Layered Allocations = SEE Safe Harbor Layered Allocations Sequential thought process Example - Profits. After giving effect to [regulatory allocations, Profits for any Allocation Year shall be allocated in the following order and priority: First, 100% to the LPs in an amount equal to their Priority Return on a cumulative basis; Second, 100% to the GP to reverse 4 th tier Losses on a cumulative basis; Third, 100% to the LPs to reverse 3 rd tier Losses on a cumulative basis; Fourth, 100% to the GP to reverse 2 nd tier Losses on a cumulative basis; and Fifth, 50% to the GP and 50% to the LPs. Losses. After giving effect to [regulatory allocations, Losses for any Allocation Year shall be allocated in the following order and priority, subject to the [loss limitation provision]: First, to reverse 5 th tier Profits on a cumulative basis; Second, 100% to the GP until the GP s Capital Account equals zero; Third, 100% to the LPs until the LPs Capital Accounts equal zero; and Fourth, 100% to the GP. Do the allocations matter? SEE safe harbor? 21
22 Layered Allocations = SEE Safe Harbor Maintenance of Capital Accounts Liquidation Provisions 22
23 Layered Allocations = SEE Safe Harbor Qualified Income Offset Loss Limitation The allocation of Losses must be limited to prevent any Member from having (or increasing) an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any taxable year (or relevant portion thereof). 23
24 Target Allocations - PIP Target Allocations Sequential thought process Example Section 4.1(a) Distributions. Available Cash shall [in the discretion of the Board] be distributed in the following order and priority: - First, to the Limited Partners in an amount equal to their Priority Return determined on a cumulative basis; - Second, to the Limited Partners in an amount equal to their unreturned Capital Contributions; and - Third, 50% to the General Partner and 50% to the Limited Partners. PIP generally determines 704(b) allocations. 24
25 Target Allocations - PIP Income Allocations 25
26 Target Allocations - PIP Target Allocations Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts 26
27 Target Allocations - PIP Maintenance of Capital Accounts - Same Qualified Income Offset - Same Liquidation Provisions 27
28 Common Issues with Target Allocations Insufficient 704(b) income to cover preferred returns Current and proposed Treas. Reg (c) Example (2). Mismatches between cash flow, taxable income, and economics Tax does not necessarily follow the cash Unrealized appreciation/depreciation Debt repayment Subpart F income Return of basis Allocating income when the partnership has 704(b) losses and taxable income Capital shifts Anticipatory events distribution rights contingent on the outcome of a future event Unanticipated events 28
29 Examples
30 Basic Example Distributions: 1st A s initial capital contribution is returned 2nd A receives annual 10% preferred return 3rd B s initial capital contribution is returned 4th Remaining proceeds 50% to each partner Cash $100 Anne AB Year 1: 704(b) Income = $100 Year 2: 704(b) Income = $100 Bob Equipment FMV $100 Basis $40 30
31 Basic Example Year 1 *A s Y1 Preferred Return $100 (A s contribution) X 10% (Preferred Return) = $10 31
32 Basic Example Year 2 *A s Y2 Preferred Return $100 + $10 (A s Y1 accrued return) = $110 * 10% = $11 Total Y2 Accrued Preferred Return $11 + $10 = $21 32
33 Dry Preferred Return Distributions: 1st A s initial capital contribution is returned 2nd A receives annual 10% preferred return 3rd B s initial capital contribution is returned 4th Remaining proceeds 50% to each partner Assume AB Holdings has zero income in the current year. Partner A AB Holdings Partner B $100 Preferred $50 Common $50 Common Operating 33
34 Dry Preferred Return, Cont. Year 1 Waterfall Distribution Partner A Partner B Total Initial 704(b) Capital - 1. Return of A's Capital Contributions % Preferred Return Distributions - 3. Return of B's Capital (b) Income /50 - Ending 704(b) Capital Beginning Capital Ending Capital Change Contributions 704(b) Income Partner A Partner B (10) *A s Y1 Preferred Return $100 (A s Preferred Capital) X 10% (Preferred Return) = $10 How should the partnership treat for the shift in capital? 34
35 Complete Return of Capital Waterfall Two scenarios explore the timing difference between taxable income and cash flow. Scenario 1 General Partner shares 20% of gains and is allocated is allocated tax gain each year equal to its share of economic gain. Scenario 2 General Partner is not allocated any taxable gain until it becomes clear that the GP is approaching economic carry. GP $0 Cash Contribution 20% share of gains Holdings LPs $900 Cash Contribution 80% share of gains Investment #1 Investment #2 Investment #3 Cost Basis - $300 Sold for $600 in Year 1 Cost Basis - $300 Sold for $300 in Year 3 Cost Basis - $300 Sold for $300 in Year 3 35

The $60 distributed to the GP will be treated as a distribution from the partner s 704(b) capital account and the GP will have enough basis to avoid gain. 36
37 Complete Return of Capital Waterfall Scenario 2 Total General Partner Limited Partners FMV 704(b) Tax FMV 704(b) Tax FMV 704(b) Tax Beginning Capital Account Year 1 Distribution (600) (600) (600) (600) (600) (600) Year 1 Income Ending Capital Account Year 3 Distribution (600) (600) (600) (60) (60) (60) (540) (540) (540) Year 3 Income Ending Capital Account (60) (60) If distribution is based on capital account, the general partner would need future profits to fund its carried interest. Character of the $60 distributed to the general partner? Guaranteed payment? Section 731? 37
38 Investment-by-Investment Waterfall Scenario 1 GP shares 20% of realized gains No hurdle or preferred returns The partnership uses targeted capital accounts Taxable income is allocated based on deal by deal returns Scenario 2 LP receives 10% annual preferred return General Partner shares 20% of realized gains Taxable income is first allocated to fund all preferred return both realized and unrealized.

41 Oil & Gas Partnerships Special Allocations and Other Considerations
42 Why a Tax Partnership? Special Allocations Partnership agreements allow special allocations to partners Items such as IDCs which would otherwise be limited may be allocated to partners who are able to utilize them However, allocations must be respected for 704(b) and other tax purposes See API Model Partnership Agreement ( API Model Form ) 42
43 Section 704(b) Mechanics of the API Model Partnership Agreement Intended to meet the SEE safe harbor - Capital accounts maintained in a manner intended to comply with Treas. Reg (b) API Model Form, Section 5 - Partners have full DROs API Model Form, Section Liquidating distributions are made in accordance with positive 704(b) capital accounts API Model Form, Section 7.7 Reconciling capital accounts to the economic deal - Capital accounts are literally the economic deal... - Balancing provisions to conform as closely as possible capital accounts to economic interests Deemed sale gain/loss (from 704(b) revaluation) available under value equals basis rule API Model Form, Section 7.3 Cash balancing API Model Form, Section 7.4 Economic effect and substantiality impact? 43
44 Section 704(b) Mechanics of the API Model Partnership Agreement (continued) Special oil & gas allocations - Distinguish between 704(b) and 704(c) allocations - IDC and simulated gain, loss, and depletion - Tax depletion computed separately for each partner - 704(c) you keep yours, I keep mine 44
45 Statutory and Regulatory Changes in Partnership Tax Rules Since Last API Revision (1997) 704(c)(1)(B): substituted 7 years for 5 years in introductory provisions (1997) 704(c)(1)(C): built in loss property (2004) 721(c) regulations: eliminating deferral on contributions to partnerships controlled by US transferor and a related foreign person unless 704(c) remedial allocation method and other requirements met (2017, with August 2015 effective date) 737(b)(1): substituted 7 years for 5 years (1997) 734(b): mandatory basis adjustments for built in loss property (2005) 743(b): mandatory basis adjustments for built in loss property (2004) : contingent liability regulations (2003) BBA audit rules replace TEFRA audit procedures (2015; effective 2018) 45
46 Possible Revisions to an API Model Form Replace full DRO with provisions necessary to satisfy the alternative test for economic effect? - QIO and loss limitation provisions Target allocations and PIP? BBA audit rules replace TEFRA audit procedures generally in tax years beginning in A partnership representative has exclusive authority to represent and bind the partnership and partners. Partners have no notice or participation rights. - Compare API Model Form, Section 2 (providing relatively extensive notice and participation rights to partners). 46
