Copy as parenthetical citation

(a) The general partners or other persons with authority to manage or direct the business and affairs of a statutory public benefit limited partnership shall manage or direct the business and affairs of the statutory public benefit limited partnership in a manner that balances the pecuniary interests of the partners, the best interests of those materially affected by the limited partnership’s conduct, and the specific public benefit or public benefits set forth in its certificate of limited partnership. Unless otherwise provided in a partnership agreement, no general partner or other person with authority to manage or direct the business and affairs of the statutory public benefit limited partnership shall have any liability for monetary damages for the failure to manage or direct the business and affairs of the statutory public benefit limited partnership as provided in this subsection.

(b) A general partner of a statutory public benefit limited partnership or any other person with authority to manage or direct the business and affairs of the statutory public benefit limited partnership shall not, by virtue of the public benefit provisions or § 17-1202(a) of this title, have any duty to any person on account of any interest of such person in the public benefit or public benefits set forth in its certificate of limited partnership or on account of any interest materially affected by the limited partnership’s conduct and, with respect to a decision implicating the balance requirement in subsection (a) of this section, will be deemed to satisfy such person’s fiduciary duties to limited partners and the limited partnership if such person’s decision is both informed and disinterested and not such that no person of ordinary, sound judgment would approve.
