(2) Except as otherwise provided in the organic law or partnership agreement of the domesticating limited partnership, the domestication does not give rise to any rights that a partner or third party would have upon a dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the domesticating limited partnership.     (3) When a domestication becomes effective, a person that did not have interest holder liability with respect to the domesticating limited partnership and becomes subject to interest holder liability with respect to a domestic limited partnership as a result of the domestication has interest holder liability only to the extent provided by the organic law of the domestic limited partnership and only for those debts, obligations, and other liabilities that arise after the domestication becomes effective.     (4) When a domestication becomes effective, the following rules apply:   (a) The domestication does not discharge any interest holder liability under this chapter to the extent the interest holder liability arose before the domestication became effective.     (b) A person does not have interest holder liability under this part for any debt, obligation, or other liability that arise after the domestication becomes effective.     (c) A person has whatever rights of contribution from any other person as are provided by law other than this chapter, this chapter, or the partnership agreement of a domestic domesticating limited partnership with respect to any interest holder liability preserved under Subsection (4)(a) as if the domestication had not occurred.       (5) When a domestication becomes effective, a foreign limited partnership that is the domesticated limited partnership may be served with process in this state for the collection and enforcement of any of its debts, obligations, and other liabilities as provided in Section 16-17-301.     (6) If the domesticating limited partnership is a registered foreign limited partnership, the registration of the foreign limited partnership is canceled when the domestication becomes effective.     (7) A domestication does not require the limited partnership to wind up its affairs and does not constitute or cause the dissolution of the limited partnership.
