Copy as parenthetical citation

(1) A limited partner does not have any fiduciary duty to the limited partnership or to any other partner solely by reason of being a limited partner. To the extent a limited partner is vested with or delegated management powers or duties under the partnership agreement, the only fiduciary duties that such limited partner has to the limited partnership and the other partners with respect to the exercise of such powers or duties are those duties described in s. 620.1408, subject to the same standards and limitations that would apply to a general partner under that section with respect to the exercise of such powers or duties.

(2) A limited partner shall discharge the duties to the limited partnership and the other partners under this act or under the partnership agreement and exercise any rights consistently with the obligation of good faith and fair dealing.

(3) A limited partner does not violate a duty or obligation under this act or under the partnership agreement merely because the limited partner’s conduct furthers the limited partner’s own interest.
