Withdrawal of General Partner (a) The General Partner may not Withdraw (other than as a result of an Involuntary Withdrawal) without the Consent of the Special Limited Partner. Withdrawal shall be conditioned upon the agreement of the Special Limited Partner to be admitted as a successor General Partner, or if the Special Limited Partner declines to be admitted as a successor General Partner then on the agreement of one or more Persons who satisfy the requirements of Section 13.5 of this Agreement to be admitted as successor General Partner(s).
Withdrawal of Partners (a) Any Partner may Withdraw voluntarily from the Partnership subject to the prior written consent of the General Partner, including if such Withdrawal would (i) cause the Partnership to be in default under any of its contractual obligations or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of the General Partner, have a material adverse effect on the Partnership or its business. Without limiting the foregoing sentence, the General Partner generally intends to permit voluntary Withdrawals on the last day of any calendar month (or on such other date as shall be determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion), on not less than 15 days’ prior written notice by such Partner to the General Partner (or on such shorter notice period as may be mutually agreed upon between such Partner and the General Partner); provided, that a Partner may Withdraw from the Partnership with respect to such Partner’s GP-Related Partner Interest without Withdrawing from the Partnership with respect to such Partner’s Capital Commitment Partner Interest, and a Partner may Withdraw from the Partnership with respect to such Partner’s Capital Commitment Partner Interest without Withdrawing from the Partnership with respect to such Partner’s GP-Related Partner Interest.
Termination of the Partnership The Partnership shall terminate when all assets of the Partnership, after payment or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Partnership, shall have been distributed to the Partners in the manner provided for in this Article VIII, and the Certificate shall have been canceled in the manner required by the Act.
Capitalization of the Partnership Subject to Section 8.2, the Partnership is authorized to issue two classes of Partnership Interests. The Partnership Interests shall be designated as General Partner Interests and Limited Partner Interests, each having such rights, powers, preferences and designations as set forth in this Agreement.
Continuation of the Partnership The parties hereto agree to continue the Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The General Partner, for itself and as agent for the Limited Partners, shall make every reasonable effort to assure that all certificates and documents are properly executed and shall accomplish all filing, recording, publishing and other acts necessary or appropriate for compliance with all the requirements for the continuation of the Partnership as a limited partnership under the Act and under all other laws of the State of Delaware or such other jurisdictions in which the General Partner determines that the Partnership may conduct activities. The rights and duties of the Partners shall be as provided herein and, subject to the terms hereof, under the Act.
Withdrawal of Limited Partners No Limited Partner shall have any right to withdraw from the Partnership; provided, however, that when a transferee of a Limited Partner’s Limited Partner Interest becomes a Record Holder of the Limited Partner Interest so transferred, such transferring Limited Partner shall cease to be a Limited Partner with respect to the Limited Partner Interest so transferred.
Formation of the Partnership The Partnership was formed as a limited partnership pursuant to the provisions of the Act and the Original Agreement and continued upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Except as expressly provided herein to the contrary, the rights and obligations of the Partners and administration and termination of the Partnership shall be governed by the Act. The Partnership Interest of each Partner shall be personal property for all purposes.
