   (b) At the time the other party enters into the transaction:

   1. Less than 2 years have passed since the dissociation.

   2. The other party does not have notice of the dissociation and reasonably believes that the person is a general partner.

   (a) To the limited partnership for any damage caused to the limited partnership arising from the obligation incurred under subsection (1).

   (b) If a general partner or another person dissociated as a general partner is liable for the obligation, to the general partner or other person for any damage caused to the general partner or other person arising from the liability.
