                                 CODE OF VIRGINIA

EXPENSES (§ 50-73.65)

If a derivative action is successful, in whole or in part, or if anything is
received by the plaintiff as a result of a judgment, compromise or settlement of
an action or claim, except as hereinafter provided, the court may award the
plaintiff reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorney&#8217;s fees, and
shall direct him to remit to the limited partnership the remainder of those
proceeds received by him. On termination of the derivative action, the court may
require the plaintiff to pay any defendant&#8217;s reasonable expenses,
including reasonable attorney&#8217;s fees, incurred in defending the action if
it finds that the action was commenced without reasonable cause or the plaintiff
did not fairly and adequately represent the interests of the limited partners
and the partnership in enforcing the right of the partnership.
