Court of Chancery Denies Buy Out Claim Based on Change of Control
BASF Corp. v. POSM II Properties Partnership L.P., C.A. 3608-VCS (Del. Ch. Mar. 3, 2009)
The plaintiff in this case argued it was entitled to be bought out of the partnership because the partnership agreement provided buy out rights when control of the partnership changed. The Court held that a change in ownership of the partnership managing entity was not a change in control of the partnership itself. Instead, only control of the manager had changed.
