(a) no present or past limited partner shall be liable to contribute as such to the assets of the limited partnership to any greater amount than the amount of any part of his contribution as such limited partner which he may have failed to pay into, or have drawn out, or received back from the partnership assets since he became, or whilst lie remained, a limited partner, except in the case of a present limited partner who is a past general partner, and in the case of a past limited partner who has become a present general partner;
(b) no past general partner shall be liable to contribute, as such, to the assets of the limited partnership except in respect of partnership debts and obligations incurred whilst he continued to be a general partner; but every past general partner who has become a limited partner shall, in addition to any amount which he may be liable to contribute in respect of partnership debts and obligations incurred whilst he continued to be a general partner, be liable to contribute to the assets of the limited partnership to an amount equal to the amount of any part of his contribution, as such limited partner, which he may have failed to pay into, or have drawn out, or received back from the partnership assets since he became or whilst he remained, a limited partner;
(c) no past partner, general or limited, shall be liable to contribute, as such, to the assets of the limited partnership unless it appears to the Court that without contributions from past partners the partnership assets are insufficient for the payment in full of the partnership liabilities and the costs, charges, and expenses of the administration in bankruptcy of the partnership estate.
