INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARING AND FILING THE 
CERTIFICATE OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP 	
 (Section 425E-201, Hawaii Revised Statutes) 
 	
"Limited partnership"	 means an entity, having one or more general partners and one or more limited partners, which is formed 
under Chapter 425E, Hawaii Revised Statutes, by two or more persons.  All general partners are liable jointly and severally for 
all obligations of the limited partnership unless otherwise agreed by the claimant or provided by law. 
 
"Limited liability limited partnership"	
 means a limited partnership whose certificate of limited partnership states that the limited 
partnership is a limited liability limited partnership.  An obligation of a limited partnership incurred while the limited partnership is 
a limited liability limited partnership, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, is solely the obligation of the limited 
partnership. A general partner shall not be personally liable, directly or indirectly, by way of contribution or otherwise, for such an 
obligation solely by reason of being or acting as a general partner. This applies despite anything inconsistent in the partnership 
agreement that existed immediately before the general partners of a limited partnership consented to become a limited liability 
limited partnership.

Revised Statutes.
