(1) An obligation of a limited partnership, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, is not the obligation of any limited partner. A limited partner is not personally liable, directly or indirectly, by way of indemnification, contribution, assessment, or otherwise, for an obligation of the limited partnership solely by reason of being a limited partner, even if the limited partner participates in the management and control of the limited partnership.
(2) Subsection (1) of this section shall not affect the liability of a limited partner for his or her own negligence, wrongful acts, or misconduct.
