SERVICE ON LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (§ 50-73.7)

A. A domestic or foreign limited partnership&#8217;s registered agent is the
limited partnership&#8217;s agent for service of process, notice, or demand
required or permitted by law to be served on the limited partnership. The
registered agent, by instrument in writing, acknowledged before a notary public,
may designate a natural person or persons in the office of the registered agent
upon whom any such process, notice or demand may be served. Whenever any such
person accepts service of process, a photographic copy of such instrument shall
be attached to the return.

B. Whenever a domestic or foreign limited partnership fails to appoint or
maintain a registered agent in the Commonwealth, or whenever its registered
agent cannot with reasonable diligence be found at the registered office, then
the clerk of the Commission shall be an agent of the limited partnership upon
whom service may be made in accordance with &#xA7; 12.1-19.1.

C. This section does not prescribe the only means, or necessarily the required
means, of serving a domestic or foreign limited partnership.
