(g) Fairness as a defense.--It is a defense to a claim under subsection (b)(2) and any comparable claim in equity or at common law that the transaction was fair to the partnership at the time it was authorized or ratified under subsection (f).  (h) Rights and obligations in approved transaction.--If a partner enters into a transaction with the partnership which otherwise would be prohibited under subsection (b)(2), but the transaction is authorized or ratified as provided under subsection (f) or the partnership agreement, the partner's rights and obligations arising from the transaction are the same as those of a person that is not a partner.  (i) Exoneration.--The partnership agreement may provide that a partner shall not be personally liable for monetary damages to the partnership or the other partners for a breach of subsection (c), except that a partner may not be exonerated for an act that constitutes recklessness, willful misconduct or a knowing violation of law.

§ 8453. Transfer of transferable interest. (a) General rule.--A transfer, in whole or in part, of a transferable interest:  (1) is permissible; (2) does not by itself cause the dissociation of the transferor as a partner or a dissolution and winding up of the partnership's business; and  (3) subject to section 8455 (relating to power of personal representative of deceased partner), does not entitle the transferee to:  (i) participate in the management or conduct of the partnership's business; or (ii) except as provided in subsection (c), have access to records or other information concerning the partnership's business.  (b) Rights of transferee.--A transferee has the right to:  (1) receive, in accordance with the terms of the transfer: (i) distributions to which the transferor would otherwise be entitled; and (ii) allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit or similar item which would otherwise be made to the transferor; and  (2) seek under section 8481(a)(5) (relating to events causing dissolution) a judicial determination that it is equitable to wind up the partnership business.

§ 8454. Charging order. (a) General rule.--On application by a judgment creditor of a partner or transferee, a court may enter a charging order against the transferable interest of the judgment debtor for the unsatisfied amount of the judgment. A charging order constitutes a lien on a judgment debtor's transferable interest and requires the partnership to pay over to the person to which the charging order was issued any distribution that otherwise would be paid to the judgment debtor.  (b) Available relief.--To the extent necessary to effectuate the collection of distributions pursuant to a charging order in effect under subsection (a), the court may:  (1) appoint a receiver of the distributions subject to the charging order, with the power to make all inquiries the judgment debtor might have made; and  (2) make all other orders necessary to give effect to the charging order. (c) Foreclosure.--Upon a showing that distributions under a charging order will not pay the judgment debt within a reasonable time, the court may foreclose the lien and order the sale of the transferable interest. The purchaser at the foreclosure sale obtains only the transferable interest, does not thereby become a partner and is subject to section 8453 (relating to transfer of transferable interest).  (d) Satisfaction of judgment.--At any time before foreclosure under subsection (c), the partner or transferee whose transferable interest is subject to a charging order under subsection (a) may extinguish the charging order by satisfying the judgment and filing a certified copy of the satisfaction with the court that issued the charging order.  (e) Purchase of rights.--At any time before foreclosure under subsection (c), a partnership or one or more partners whose transferable interests are not subject to the charging order may pay to the judgment creditor the full amount due under the judgment and thereby succeed to the rights of the judgment creditor, including the charging order.  (f) Exemption laws preserved.--This chapter shall not deprive any partner or transferee of the benefit of any exemption law applicable to the transferable interest of the partner or transferee.  (g) Exclusive remedy.--This section provides the exclusive remedy by which a person seeking, in the capacity of a judgment creditor, to enforce a judgment against a partner or transferee may satisfy the judgment from the judgment debtor's transferable interest.

The liability is in addition to any debt, obligation or other liability of the partner to the partnership or the other partners.

(2) The person's duties and obligations under section 8447 (relating to standards of conduct for partners) end with regard to matters arising and events occurring after the person's dissociation, except to the extent the partner participates in winding up the partnership's business under section 8482.  (3) Any transferable interest owned by the person in the person's capacity as a general partner immediately before dissociation that is not subsequently purchased from the person or canceled or exchanged in a transaction under Chapter 3 (relating to entity transactions) is owned by the person solely as a transferee.  (c) Existing obligations not discharged.--A person's dissociation does not of itself discharge the person from any debt, obligation or other liability to the partnership or the other partners which the person incurred while a partner.
