[§425E-404]  General partner's
liability.  (a)  Except as otherwise provided in subsections (b)
and (c), all general partners are liable jointly and severally for all
obligations of the limited partnership unless otherwise agreed by the claimant
or provided by law.



(b)  A person that becomes a general partner of
an existing limited partnership shall not be personally liable for an
obligation of a limited partnership incurred before the person became a general
partner.



(c)  An obligation of a limited partnership
incurred while the limited partnership is a limited liability limited
partnership, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, is solely the
obligation of the limited partnership.  A general partner shall not be
personally liable, directly or indirectly, by way of contribution or otherwise,
for such an obligation solely by reason of being or acting as a general
partner.  This subsection applies despite anything inconsistent in the
partnership agreement that existed immediately before the consent required to
become a limited liability limited partnership under section 425E-406(b)(2). [L
