Get your taxes done using TurboTax

do you get a k-1 for those preferred shares? if no then there should be no UBIT since you are not allocated a portion of the partnership's income and expenses. if yes, which I believe is the case, then the UBIT will come not from the capital gain portion of the sale but from the same elements that create UBIT for non-preferred shares  - -ordinary income and expense recapture.
