The Florida
State University Business Review has released
the volume containing An Amendment Too Far?: Limits on the Ability of Less Than All
Members to Amend the Operating Agreement, co-authored by myself and Katharine Sagan, also of Stoll Keenon Ogden. This article focuses upon the question of what
limits exist when a partnership or operating agreement allows
it to be amended by less than unanimous consent. Put another way, if less than unanimity is required, what are the outer limits of the modification
of the deal that the permitted threshold for amendment may impose upon those who vote against the amendment? After reviewing the case law and the clear trends of no limitations, we consider a number of principles including fiduciary
duties and the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing to see if they impose any limits. We conclude they do not.
We hope
you find this piece of interesting. It can be accessed on the SKO
website; HERE IS A LINK to
the article.
