121-207. Liability for false statement in certificate. (a) If any certificate of limited partnership, certificate of amendment, or other certificate filed pursuant to this article contains a materially false statement, one who suffers loss by reasonable reliance on the statement may recover damages for the loss from:
(1) any person who executes the certificate, or causes another to execute it on his behalf, and knew, and any general partner who knew of the filing of such certificate and who knew or should have known with the exercise of reasonable care and diligence, the statement to be false in any material respect at the time the certificate was executed; and
(2) any general partner who thereafter knows of the filing of such certificate and who knows or should have known with the exercise of reasonable care and diligence that any arrangement or other fact described in the certificate has changed, making the statement false in any material respect, if that general partner had ninety days to amend or cancel the certificate, or to file a petition for its amendment or cancellation before the statement was relied upon.
(b) No person shall have any liability for failing to cause the amendment or cancellation of a certificate to be filed or failing to file a petition for its amendment or cancellation, if the certificate or petition is filed within ninety days of the time when that person knew or should have known that the statement in the certificate was false in any material respect.
