Transfer of transferable interest.
| (1) | A transfer, in whole or in part, of a transferable interest:
| (b) | does not by itself cause the person's dissociation or a dissolution and winding up of the limited partnership's activities and affairs; and |
| (c) | subject to Section 16-19-704, does not entitle the transferee to:
| (i) | participate in the management or conduct of the limited partnership's activities or affairs; or |
| (ii) | except as otherwise provided in Subsection (3), have access to required information, records, or other information concerning the limited partnership's activities and affairs. |

| (2) | A transferee has the right to receive, in accordance with the transfer, distributions to which the transferor would otherwise be entitled. |
| (3) | In a dissolution and winding up of a limited partnership, a transferee is entitled to an account of the limited partnership's transactions only from the date of dissolution. |
| (4) | A transferable interest may be evidenced by a certificate of the interest issued by a limited partnership in a record, and, subject to this section, the interest represented by the certificate may be transferred by a transfer of the certificate. |
| (5) | A limited partnership need not give effect to a transferee's rights under this section until the limited partnership knows or has notice of the transfer. |
| (6) | A transfer of a transferable interest in violation of a restriction on transfer contained in the partnership agreement is ineffective as to a person having knowledge or notice of the restriction at the time of transfer. |
