A conflict of interest transaction is a transaction with the partnership in which a general partner of the partnership has a direct or indirect interest. A conflict of interest transaction is not voidable by the partnership solely because of the general partner's interest in the transaction if any one (1) of the following is true:
The material facts of the transaction and the general partner's interest were disclosed or known to all the general partners and the transaction is authorized, approved or ratified by the affirmative vote of a majority of the general partners who have no direct or indirect interest in the transaction, but a transaction may not be authorized, approved or ratified under this section by a single general partner;
The material facts of the transaction and the general partner's interest were disclosed or known to a committee of not less than three (3) partners, none of whom have a direct or indirect interest in the transaction, and such committee authorized, approved or ratified the transaction;
The material facts of the transaction and the general partner's interest were disclosed or known to all disinterested partners and a majority of such disinterested partners authorized, approved or ratified the transaction; or
The transaction was fair to the partnership.
For purposes of this section, a general partner of the partnership has an indirect interest in a transaction if, but not only if, another entity in which he has a material financial interest or of which he is a director, officer, trustee or partner is a party to the transaction.
For purposes of subdivision (a)(3), votes of partners who have a direct or indirect interest in a transaction or votes of those under the control of an entity described in subsection (b), may not be counted in a vote of partners to determine whether to authorize, approve or ratify a conflict of interest transaction under subdivision (a)(3). The votes of those partners, however, shall be counted in determining whether the transaction is approved under other sections of this title. A majority of the partners, whether or not present, that are entitled to vote on the transaction under this subsection (c) constitutes a quorum for the purpose of taking action under this section.
