Chapter 14 - Mississippi Uniform Limited Partnership Act
Article 1 - General Provisions
§ 79-14-107. Partnership agreement; effect on third parties and relationship to records effective on behalf of limited partnership

Universal Citation: MS Code § 79-14-107 (2017)
  • (a) A partnership agreement may specify that its amendment requires the approval of a person that is not a party to the agreement or the satisfaction of a condition. An amendment is ineffective if its adoption does not include the required approval or satisfy the specified condition.
  • (b) The obligations of a limited partnership and its partners to a person in the person's capacity as a transferee or person dissociated as a partner are governed by the partnership agreement. Subject only to a court order issued under Section 79-14-703(b)(2) to effectuate a charging order, an amendment to the partnership agreement made after a person becomes a transferee or is dissociated as a partner:
    • (1) Is effective with regard to any debt, obligation, or other liability of the partnership or its partners to the person in the person's capacity as a transferee or person dissociated as a partner; and
    • (2) Is not effective to the extent the amendment imposes a new debt, obligation, or other liability on the transferee or person dissociated as a partner.
  • (c) If a record delivered by a limited partnership to the Secretary of State for filing becomes effective and contains a provision that would be ineffective under Section 79-14-105(c) or (d)(2) if contained in the partnership agreement, the provision is ineffective in the record.
  • (d) Subject to subsection (c), if a record delivered by a limited partnership to the Secretary of State for filing becomes effective and conflicts with a provision of the partnership agreement:
    • (1) The agreement prevails as to partners, persons dissociated as partners, and transferees; and
    • (2) The record prevails as to other persons to the extent they reasonably rely on the record.
