General partner capital

$240,000

Limited partner capital

2,160,000

Total capital

$2,400,000

The limited partnership capital was contributed by unaffiliated individual investors recruited by a regional boutique investment bank.  The Reporting Company is paid an $180,000 management fee.  The limited partners expect the partnership to be highly successful over the next five years.  The investment bank estimated that the distribution of income to these investors should be at least $400,000 during the time period.
