[ 2009, c. 629, Pt. A, 2 (NEW); 2009, c. 629, Pt. A, 3 (AFF) .]

3. No application. Rules that statutes in derogation of the common law are to be strictly construed do not apply to this chapter.

5. Assignments. Title 11, sections 9-1406 and 9-1408 do not apply to any interest in a limited liability company, including all rights, powers and interests arising under a limited liability company agreement or this chapter.
