(1) is permissible;
(2) does not by itself cause a member’s dissociation or a dissolution and winding up of the limited liability company’s activities; and
(3) subject to section 322C.0504, does not entitle the transferee to:
(i) participate in the management or conduct of the company’s activities; or
(ii) except as otherwise provided in subdivision 3, have access to records or other information concerning the company’s activities.
Subd. 2.Transferee right to distributions.
A transferee has the right to receive, in accordance with the transfer, distributions to which the transferor would otherwise be entitled.

In a dissolution and winding up of a limited liability company, a transferee is entitled to an account of the company’s transactions only from the date of dissolution.
Subd. 4.Evidence of interest.
A transferable interest may be evidenced by a certificate of the interest issued by the limited liability company in a record, and, subject to this section, the interest represented by the certificate may be transferred by a transfer of the certificate. Such an interest is not a security, as that term is defined in section 336.8-102, paragraph (a), clause (15), unless the conditions specified in section 336.8-103, paragraph (c), are satisfied.
Subd. 5.Company notice required.
A limited liability company need not give effect to a transferee’s rights under this section until the company has notice of the transfer.

A transfer of a transferable interest in violation of a restriction on transfer contained in the operating agreement is ineffective as to a person having notice of the restriction at the time of transfer.
Subd. 7.Rights retained.
Except as otherwise provided in section 322C.0602, clause (4), item (ii), when a member transfers a transferable interest, the transferor retains the rights of a member other than the interest in distributions transferred and retains all duties and obligations of a member.
Subd. 8.Transferee liability.
When a member transfers a transferable interest to a person that becomes a member with respect to the transferred interest, the transferee is liable for the member’s obligations under sections 322C.0403 and 322C.0406, subdivision 3, known to the transferee when the transferee becomes a member.
