time  of  the distribution, after giving effect to the distribution, all
liabilities of  the  limited  partnership,  other  than  liabilities  to
partners  on  account of their partnership interests and liabilities for
which recourse of creditors is limited  to  specified  property  of  the
limited  partnership,  exceed the fair market value of the assets of the
limited partnership, except that the fair market value of property  that
is subject to a liability for which the recourse of creditors is limited
shall  be  included in the assets of the limited partnership only to the
extent that the fair value of that property exceeds that liability.
