Technical Fund Formation Question

In a private equity fund distribution waterfall, where carried interest is payable only after the preferred return and capital contributions are distributed, does it make a difference whether the preferred return is distributed before or after the capital contribution? Is it usual that the preferred return is distributed to all partners before capital contributions are returned?
