For each partner: full legal name, address, percentage interest, class (GP/LP). For minors/beneficiaries, specify holding mechanism (direct, UTMA with custodian, or trust with trustee details).
Capital accounts per Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). Include provisions for additional contributions, dilution for failure to contribute, and prohibition on capital withdrawal except as specified.
Article IV — Management & Fiduciary Framework
GP powers (sole and absolute discretion): acquire/manage/dispose of property, enter contracts, borrow/pledge, hire advisors, set investment/distribution policy, file returns, make tax elections, maintain insurance.
Fiduciary duties: loyalty, care, good faith. State permitted modifications per statute (cannot be "manifestly unreasonable").
Exculpation: no liability for good-faith judgments; liable only for willful misconduct, bad faith, knowing violations, or gross negligence.
Indemnification: partnership indemnifies GPs except for willful misconduct/bad faith/gross negligence. Include expense advancement and D&O insurance authority.
LP safe harbors: serve as officer/employee, consult with GPs, attend meetings, vote on specified matters, engage in competitive activities.
Allocations per IRC §704(b) / Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b) — pro rata by interest with substantial economic effect. Required: minimum gain chargeback, qualified income offset, gross income allocation for deficit accounts.
Distributions at GP sole discretion considering cash flow, debt service, capital needs, and investment objectives. Tax distributions: quarterly/annually at allocated income × highest marginal rate, treated as advances, subject to available cash.
Partnership representative under IRC §6231 / BBA audit regime: authority to represent, make elections, extend SOL, settle. Specify accounting method, fiscal year, Form 1065 / K-1 delivery schedule.
Article VI — Transfer Restrictions
General rule: no transfer without prior written GP consent (sole discretion). Violation is null and void.
Right of first refusal: bona fide offer notice → partnership has 30 days → other partners pro rata 30 days → if all decline, third-party sale permitted within specified window.
Buy-sell triggers: death, divorce, bankruptcy, insolvency, unauthorized transfer, loss of LP status.
Valuation: independent appraisal (each party selects one; if divergence exceeds threshold, third appraiser selected). FMV standard. Address minority interest and lack-of-marketability discounts.
Permitted transfers (GP consent still required): gifts to family members, transfers to family trusts, QDRO transfers, testamentary transfers. "Family member" defined per IRC §2704. Transferees must execute joinder agreement.
Charging orders: creditor receives only declared distributions — no management, inspection, voting, or liquidation rights. Partnership may treat creditor as assignee (phantom income exposure).
Article VII — Dissolution & Continuation
Triggers: all-GP consent, supermajority (75–80%), sale of substantially all assets, judicial decree. GP death/withdrawal/bankruptcy does not dissolve if successor GP designated.
Winding up priority: (1) creditors including partner-creditors, (2) capital account balances, (3) remaining per percentage interests.
Continuation election: requisite-interest partners may continue; specify successor GP appointment and withdrawal valuation. Restrict withdrawals (GP consent, year-end only, lengthy notice) to support valuation discounts.
Standard provisions: governing law (formation state), severability, entire agreement, written waiver, notice provisions, counterparts
Tax qualification: partnership has economic substance and legitimate business purpose beyond tax avoidance
Execution & Exhibits
Signature blocks for each GP and LP (individuals: name, date, acknowledgment; entities: authorized representative, title, authority). Notarization if required by state law.
Required exhibits:
Certificate of Limited Partnership (filed)
Schedule of partners (names, addresses, percentages)
Schedule of contributed property (descriptions, valuations, encumbrances)
Appraisal reports
Assignment agreements / deeds / bills of sale
Loan agreements (if partnership assumes debt)
Guidelines
§2036 compliance is paramount — every provision must support economic substance and legitimate business purpose; avoid mere paper restructurings
Document actual transfers — record deeds, update stock ledgers, establish partnership bank accounts, obtain EIN
Ancillary filings — Form 709 (gift tax) with full disclosure; qualified appraisals for contributed and gifted interests
Ongoing substance — separate bank account, annual returns, regular investment activity, partner meetings with minutes, actual distributions
State law variations — verify RULPA provisions for fiduciary duty limits, charging order exclusivity, safe harbors
Securities compliance — partnership interests are unregistered securities; include legends and restrictions per Securities Act of 1933
Never guarantee tax outcomes — present discount strategies as subject to IRS challenge; recommend independent tax counsel opinion
