The company is not dissolved by the death of a partner, but continues with his heirs or legatees, unless provision is made in the Articles of Association that they must be approved by the partners.
It may, however, be agreed that such death will result in the dissolution of the company or that it will continue with the surviving partners only.
It may also be agreed that the company will continue either with the surviving spouse, or with one or more of the heirs, or with any other person designated by the Articles of Association or, if they so authorise, by testamentary disposition.
Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Association, where the estate devolves to a legal person, that legal person may only become a partner with the approval of the other partners, given in accordance with the conditions of the Articles of Association or, failing that, by the unanimous agreement of the partners.
