GENERAL PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
OF
SIMPSON INVESTMENT COMPANY
This partnership began on February 29, 1968 as a limited
partnership. The limited partnership was dissolved on December 28, 1988 and
the partnership continued as a general partnership. The dissolution was
done to avoid a newly enacted tax imposed on limited partnerships by the
State of California. The partners now desire to amend and clarify the terms
and provisions of their partnership agreement and to reduce their agreement
to writing.
ARTICLE I.
Name of Partnership and Term
The name of the partnership shall continue to be Simpson
Investment Company.
The partnership shall continue until dissolved and terminated by
mutual agreement of all the partners or under the provisions Article 4 upon
the death of the managing partner.

Division of Profits and Losses
The partnership's profits and losses shall be shared among the
partners as follows:
Barclay Simpson 85%
John B. Simpson 5%
Anne Simpson Gattis 5%
Jean D. Simpson 5%
The above percentages shall continue so long as the partners
withdrawals are in the above percentages. If and when a partner withdraws
more than his or her above percentage then the percentages shall change as
agreed by all of the partners.
ARTICLE III.
Management
The managing partner shall be Barclay Simpson and he shall have
control over the business of the partnership and assume direction of its
business operations. The managing partner shall consult and confer as far

ARTICLE IV.
Managing Partner's Death
The partnership shall dissolve and terminate on the death of the
managing partner.
The managing partner's will now provides for certain of his
interests in partnership property to be given to a trust for his
grandchildren. The nonmanaging partners agree to sell their interest in any
partnership properties to the estate of the managing partner. The selling
price shall be the appraised value assigned to these properties in
appraising the managing partners interest in this partnership. The
properties shall be all properties owned by the partnership except stock in
Simpson Manufacturing Co. Inc.
ARTICLE IV.
Nonmanaging Partners' Death
The partnership shall not dissolve or terminate on any nonmanaging
partners' death.
ARTICLE V.
Nontransferability of Partnership Interests
A partner's interest in the partnership shall not be transferred,
in whole or in part, except by intestate succession or testamentary
disposition on the partner's death, and any other purported transfer of all
or part of a partner's interest shall be void and of no effect against the
partnership, any other partner, any creditor of the partnership, or any
claimant against the partnership.
ARTICLE VI.
Withdrawal of Lake Tahoe Real Property
The managing partner would like to contribute his interest in the
Lake Tahoe Real property to an irrevocable trust for the benefit of his
children and step-children and he would like the other three partners to
contribute their interests in the Lake Tahoe Real property to this trust.
Their signature to this partnership agreement will constitute approval of
this withdrawal of the Lake Tahoe property to the Simpson Children Trust, or
directly to each of the seven children -- John, Anne, Jean, Jeff, Julie,
Lizzie, Amy -- in equal shares.
