Tennessee § 61-3-1112 - Approval of conversion.

§ 61-3-1112. Approval of conversion.

A plan of conversion is not effective unless it has been approved: By a domestic converting limited partnership, the affirmative vote or consent of all general partners and of limited partners owning a majority of the rights to receive distributions as limited partners at the time the vote or consent is to be effective; and In a record, by each partner of a domestic converting limited partnership that will have interest holder liability for debts, obligations, and other liabilities that are incurred after the conversion becomes effective, unless: The partnership agreement of the partnership provides in a record for the approval of a conversion or a merger in which some or all of its partners become subject to interest holder liability by the affirmative vote or consent of fewer than all of the partners; and The partner voted for or consented in a record to that provision of the partnership agreement or became a partner after the adoption of that provision. A conversion involving a domestic converting entity that is not a limited partnership is not effective unless it is approved by the domestic converting entity in accordance with its organic law. A conversion of a foreign converting entity is not effective unless it is approved by the foreign entity in accordance with the law of the foreign entity's jurisdiction of formation.
