inaccurate in a material respect at the time the certificate was executed; and [PL 1995, c. 633, Pt.
B, §1 (NEW).]
B. A partner who thereafter knows that an arrangement or other fact described in the certificate is
inaccurate in any material respect or has changed, making the statement inaccurate in any material
respect, if that partner had sufficient time to amend or cancel the certificate or to file a petition for
the amendment or cancellation before the statement was reasonably relied upon. [PL 1995, c.
633, Pt. B, §1 (NEW).]
[PL 1995, c. 633, Pt. B, §1 (NEW).]

the amendment or renunciation of a certificate to be filed or failing to file a petition for amendment or
renunciation pursuant to subsection 1 if the certificate of amendment, certificate of renunciation or
petition is filed within 90 days of the date that partner knew or should have known the certificate was
inaccurate in any material respect.
