(b) in the case of a partnership for a definite term or particular undertaking, before the expiration of the term or the completion of the undertaking:

(ii) the partner is expelled by judicial decree under 35-10-616(5); or

(iii) a partner, who is not an individual, a trust other than a business trust, or an estate, is expelled or otherwise dissociated because the entity willfully dissolved or terminated.
