This Act continues the practice of amending periodically the Delaware Revised Uniform Partnership Act (the “GP Act”) to keep it current and to maintain its national preeminence. The following is a section-by-section review of the proposed amendments to the GP Act: Section 1 amends § 15-101 of the GP Act (i) to add a new definition of “foreign partnership,” which term appears in the GP Act, and (ii) to fix a typographical error. Section 2 adds a new § 15-208 to the GP Act to clarify that a subscription for a partnership interest may be irrevocable if the subscription states it is irrevocable to the extent provided by the terms of the subscription. Section 3 amends § 15-902(g) of the GP Act. Currently, § 15-902(g) of the GP Act permits a duly approved agreement of merger or consolidation or plan of merger to effect any amendment to the partnership agreement or effect the adoption of a new partnership agreement. This amendment to § 15-902(g) confirms that an amendment to a partnership agreement or adoption of a new partnership agreement effected under § 15-902(g) of the GP Act may be effected only with respect to the partnership agreement of the surviving or resulting partnership and not with respect to the partnership agreement of a constituent partnership that is not a surviving or resulting partnership. Section 4 amends § 15-1003(b) of the GP Act to confirm that this section of the GP Act applies to foreign limited liability partnerships. Section 5 provides that the amendments to the GP Act take effect August 1, 2023.
