The General Partner may transfer all, but not less than all, of its general partner interest in the Partnership without the approval of the Limited Partners to an Affiliate provided that such transferee satisfies the requirements set forth in Section 7.17 and assumes the rights and duties of the General Partner and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement.
Transfer of General Partner Interest. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to prevent (and the Limited Partners do hereby expressly consent to) (a) the transfer by the General Partner of all or a portion of its General Partner Interest, which transferred General Partner Interest, to the extent not transferred to a successor General Partner, shall constitute a Limited Partner Interest or (b) the transfer by the General Partner, in whole and not in part, of its General Partner Interest upon (i) its merger, consolidation or other combination into any other Person or the transfer by it of all or substantially all of its assets to such other Person or (ii) sale of all or substantially all of the membership interests of the General Partner by its members if, in the case of a transfer described in either clause (a) or (b) of this sentence, the rights and duties of the General Partner with respect to the General Partner Interest so transferred are assumed by the transferee and the transferee agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. In the case of a transfer pursuant to this Section 4.2 to a Person proposed as a successor general partner of the Partnership, the transferee or successor (as the case may be) shall, subject to compliance with the terms of Section 10.2, be admitted to the Partnership as the General Partner immediately prior to the transfer of the Partnership Interest, and the business of the Partnership shall continue without dissolution.
Transfer of General Partner Interest. (a) [Reserved]
Transfer of General Partner Interest. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to prevent (and the Limited Partners do hereby expressly consent to) (i) the transfer by the General Partner of all or a portion of its Partnership Interest as the General Partner of the Partnership to one or more Affiliates, which transferred Partnership Interest, to the extent not transferred to a successor General Partner, shall constitute a Limited Partner Partnership Interest or (ii) the transfer by the General Partner, in whole and not in part, of its General Partner Partnership Interest upon its merger, consolidation or other combination into any other Person or the transfer by it of all or substantially all of its assets to another Person if, in the case of a transfer described in either clause (i) or (ii) of this sentence, the rights and duties of the General Partner with respect to the General Partner Partnership Interest so transferred, or the rights and duties of a Limited Partner with respect to the Limited Partner Partnership Interest so transferred, are assumed by the transferee and the transferee agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that in either such case, the transferee is primarily controlled, directly or indirectly, by the MLP General Partner or any Person primarily controlling, directly or indirectly, the MLP General Partner; provided, further that in either such case, such transferee furnishes to the Partnership an Opinion of Counsel that such merger, consolidation, combination, transfer or assumption will not result in a loss of limited liability of the Limited Partners or cause the Partnership to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise to be taxed as an entity for federal income tax purposes. In the case of a transfer pursuant to this Section 4.2 to a Person proposed as a successor general partner of the Partnership, the transferee or successor (as the case may be) shall be admitted to the Partnership as the General Partner immediately prior to the transfer of the Partnership Interest, and the business of the Partnership shall continue without dissolution.
Transfer of General Partner Interest. The General Partner may appoint an Affiliate as a new general partner and transfer all, but not less than all, of its general partner interest in the Partnership to such Affiliate, without the approval of the Limited Partners, provided that such new general partner satisfies the requirements set forth in Section 10.19 and assumes the rights and duties of the General Partner and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, subject to written notice of such event to Limited Partners (which written notice shall be provided by the General Partner as soon as practicable upon the occurrence of such event).
Transfer of General Partner Interest. The General Partner may, without the consent of any of the other Partners, transfer its Partnership Interest or any part thereof to a third party so long as the original General Partner, individually, maintains the ownership of a majority of its Partnership Interest.
Transfer of General Partner Interest. The General Partner may not voluntarily or involuntarily Transfer, or create or suffer to exist any Encumbrance against, all or any part of its record or beneficial interest in the Partnership or voluntarily dissolve itself or voluntarily cause its own dissolution or withdraw from the Partnership except with prior written Partner Consent.
