INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Section 9.05 of the Texas Revised Limited Partnership Act requires a limited partnership
to amend its application for registration when any arrangements or other facts described
in the application as filed have changed, making the application false in any respect. This
form is designed to evidence such changes. If any statement in the application for
registration was false when made, the partnership may utilize the form promulgated for
the filing of a certificate of correction pursuant to section 2.13 of the Texas Revised
Limited Partnership Act (Form 403).
2.
An amendment submitted to record a name change must indicate the name of the
partnership as it currently appears on the records of the secretary of state in item 1. The
new name of the partnership should appear in item 4. In the event the new name is not
available for use in Texas, the entity must adopt an assumed name that meets the same
requirements of name availability, as do entity names. The assumed name is to be set
forth in item 5 of the application and, in addition, the entity is required to file an assumed
name certificate in compliance with chapter 36 of the Texas Business & Commerce Code
(Form 503).
3.
Applications submitted to show a change in the assumed name which the entity previously
elected to use in Texas (Items 2 and 5) should be accompanied by a new assumed name
certificate.
4.
The addition of a new general partner is indicated in item 7A. Item 7B is used to evidence
the withdrawal of a named general partner. Item 7C should be used to evidence a change
in name of an existing general partner and not to evidence a change in the general
partner.
