Settlement of Accounts and Contributions Among Partners
Official statutory text
Settlement of Accounts and Contributions Among Partners. (a)
In winding up a partnership's business, the assets of the
partnership, including the contributions of the partners required by
this section, must be applied to discharge its obligations to
creditors, including, to the extent permitted by law, partners who
are creditors. Any surplus must be applied to pay in cash the net
amount distributable to partners in accordance with their right to
distributions under subsection (b) of this section.
(b) Each partner is entitled to a settlement of all partnership
accounts upon winding up the partnership business. In settling
accounts among the partners, the profits and losses that result from
the liquidation of the partnership assets must be credited and
charged to the partners' accounts. The partnership shall make a
distribution to a partner in an amount equal to any excess of the
credits over the charges in the partner's account. A partner shall
contribute to the partnership an amount equal to any excess of the
charges over the credits in the partner's account but excluding from
the calculation charges attributable to an obligation for which the
partner is not personally liable under Section 18 of this act.
(c) If a partner fails to contribute the full amount required
under subsection (b) of this section, all of the other partners
shall contribute, in the proportions in which those partners share
partnership losses, the additional amount necessary to satisfy the
partnership obligations for which they are personally liable under
Section 18 of this act. A partner or partner's legal representative
may recover from the other partners any contributions the partner
makes to the extent the amount contributed exceeds that partner's
share of the partnership obligations for which the partner is
personally liable under Section 18 of this act.
(d) After the settlement of accounts, each partner shall
contribute, in the proportion in which the partner shares
partnership losses, the amount necessary to satisfy partnership
obligations that were not known at the time of the settlement and
for which the partner is personally liable under Section 18 of this
act.
(e) The estate of a deceased partner is liable for the
partner's obligation to contribute to the partnership.
(f) An assignee for the benefit of creditors of a partnership
or a partner, or a person appointed by a court to represent
creditors of a partnership or a partner, may enforce a partner's
obligation to contribute to the partnership.
