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.
