     35-10-625. Dissolution deferred ninety days. (1) Except as provided in subsection (2), a partnership of more than two persons is not dissolved until 90 days after receipt by the partnership of notice from a partner under 35-10-624(1) or (2)(a), and its business may be continued until that date as if no notice were received. Before that date, the partner who gave the notice may waive the right to have the partnership business wound up. If there is no waiver before that date, the partnership is dissolved and its business must be wound up.
     (2) A partnership may be dissolved at any time during the 90-day period and its business wound up, by the express will of at least half of the other partners.
     (3) After receipt by the partnership of notice from a partner under 35-10-624(1) or (2)(a), the partner who gave the notice:
     (a) has no rights in the management and conduct of the partnership business if it is continued under subsection (1) but may participate in winding up the business under 35-10-609 if the partnership is dissolved on or before the expiration of the 90-day period pursuant to subsection (1) or (2);
     (b) is liable for obligations incurred during the period only to the extent a dissociated partner would be liable under 35-10-620(2) or 35-10-621(2) but is not liable for contributions for and must be indemnified by the other partners against any partnership liability incurred by another partner to the extent the liability is not appropriate for winding up the partnership business; and
     (c) must be credited with the partner's share of any profit earned during the period and may be charged with the partner's share of any loss incurred during the period but only to the extent of profits credited for the period.
