(c) A person has whatever rights of contribution from any other person as are provided by law other than this chapter, or this chapter, or the partnership agreement of a domestic domesticating limited liability 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 liability partnership that is the domesticated limited liability 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 liability partnership is a registered foreign limited liability partnership, the registration of the foreign limited liability partnership is canceled when the domestication becomes effective.
