A partner owes to the partnership and the other partners a duty of care in the conduct and winding up of the partnership business which shall be limited to refraining from engaging in grossly negligent or reckless conduct, intentional misconduct, or a knowing violation of law.

(3)

A partner shall discharge the partner’s duties to the partnership and the other partners and exercise any rights consistently with the obligation of good faith and fair dealing.

(4)

A partner does not violate a duty or obligation to the partnership or the other partners solely because the partner’s conduct furthers the partner’s own interest.

If a partnership is formed, the duties a partner owes to the partnership and the other partners pertain to all transactions connected with the formation, conduct, or liquidation of the partnership.
