1. Imposes a new debt, obligation, or other liability on the transferee or person dissociated as a partner.
2. Prejudices the rights under s. 178.0701 of a person that dissociated as a partner before the amendment was made.

(4) Subject to sub. (3), if a record delivered by a partnership to the department for filing becomes effective and conflicts with a provision of the partnership agreement, all of the following apply:
