A. A person's dissociation as a general partner does not of itself discharge the person's liability as a general partner for an obligation of the limited partnership incurred before dissociation. Except as otherwise provided in Subsections B and C of this section, the person is not liable for a limited partnership's obligation incurred after dissociation.

B. A person whose dissociation as a general partner resulted in a dissolution and winding up of the limited partnership's activities is liable to the same extent as a general partner pursuant to Section 404 [54-2A-404 NMSA 1978] of the Uniform Revised Limited Partnership Act on an obligation incurred by the limited partnership pursuant to Section 804 [54-2A-804 NMSA 1978] of the Uniform Revised Limited Partnership Act.

C. A person that has dissociated as a general partner but whose dissociation did not result in a dissolution and winding up of the limited partnership's activities is liable on a transaction entered into by the limited partnership after the dissociation only if:

(1) a general partner would be liable on the transaction; and

(2) at the time the other party enters into the transaction:

(a) less than two years has passed since the dissociation; and

(b) the other party does not have notice of the dissociation and reasonably believes that the person is a general partner.

D. By agreement with a creditor of a limited partnership and the limited partnership, a person dissociated as a general partner may be released from liability for an obligation of the limited partnership.

E. A person dissociated as a general partner is released from liability for an obligation of the limited partnership if the limited partnership's creditor, with notice of the person's dissociation as a general partner but without the person's consent, agrees to a material alteration in the nature or time of payment of the obligation.
