Where this section sits in the code

    (1) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (2) of this section, a person that makes

    an investment in a business enterprise and erroneously but in good faith believes

    that the person has become a limited partner in the enterprise is not liable for the

    enterprise's obligations by reason of making the investment, receiving distributions

    from the enterprise, or exercising any rights of or appropriate to a limited partner if,

    on ascertaining the mistake, the person:

    (a) Causes an appropriate certificate of limit ed partnership, amendment, or

    statement of correction to be signed and delivered to the Secretary of State for

    filing; or

    (b) Withdraws from future participation as an owner in the enterprise by signing

    and delivering to the Secretary of State for filing a statement of withdrawal

    under this section.

    (2) A person that makes an investment described in subsection (1) of this section is

    liable to the same extent as a general partner to any third party that enters into a

    transaction with the enterprise, believin g in good faith that the person is a general

    partner, before the Secretary of State files a statement of withdrawal, certificate of

    limited partnership, amendment, or statement of correction to show that the person

    is not a general partner.

    (3) If a person makes a diligent effort in good faith to comply with subsection (1)(a) of

    this section and is unable to cause the appropriate certificate of limited partnership,

    amendment, or statement of correction to be signed and delivered to the Secretary of

    State fo r filing, then the person has the right to withdraw from the enterprise

    pursuant to subsection (1)(b) of this section even if otherwise the withdrawal would

    breach an agreement with others that are or have agreed to become co-owners of the

    enterprise.
