(3) A majority vote of the general partners and a majority in interest of the limited partners, as defined in § 10–208 of this article, of any limited partnership party to the articles;
(4) A majority vote of the entire board of directors of a corporation party to the articles; and
(5) A majority vote of the entire board of trustees of a business trust party to the articles.
(b) If the articles of merger have been filed with the Department, notice of the abandonment shall be given promptly to the Department.
(c) (1) If the proposed merger is abandoned as provided in this section, no legal liability arises under the articles of merger.
(2) An abandonment does not prejudice the rights of any person under any other contract made by a limited liability company, partnership, limited partnership, and corporation or business trust party to the proposed articles of merger in connection with the proposed merger.
