In the event of a partial transfer of a partnership interest, accounts will be divided to separate accounts reflecting the portions of the division. It is not possible to transfer or assume individual rights and/or obligations with respect to individual partners accounts separately from the respective partnership interest.

(b)
the relevant partner is subject to execution measures with respect to the partnership interest or

 
(c)

In the case of execution measures being levied in relation to the partnership interest, the exclusion shall become invalid, if the relevant partner within one month following the receipt of the exclusion declaration proves that the execution measures have been cancelled. Until the expiry of that period, all payments relating to his partnership interest and arising from his position as partner shall be suspended with effect vis--vis all partners.

3.
With the institution of insolvency or similar proceedings with regard to the assets of a partner, the partner in question shall retire from the Fund Company without any further act or notice being required by the Fund Company or the partners.

4.
In all cases of the retirement or exclusion of a partner, the Fund Company shall continue to exist between the remaining partners. The partnership interest in the company assets of the ceasing partner shall accrue to the remaining partners in relation to their prior participation.
