The writing to amend a certificate shall:
(1) Conform to the requirements of article 1844 as far as
necessary to set forth clearly the change in the certificate
which it is desired to make; and
(2) Be signed and sworn to by all members, and an
amendment substituting a limited partner or adding a
limited or general partner shall be signed also by the
member to be substituted or added, and when a limited
partner is to be substituted, the amendment shall also be
signed by the assigning limited partner.
The writing to cancel a certificate shall be signed by all
members.
A person desiring the cancellation or amendment of a
certificate, if any person designated in the first and
second paragraphs as a person who must execute the
writing refuses to do so, may petition the court to order a
cancellation or amendment thereof.
If the court finds that the petitioner has a right to have
the writing executed by a person who refuses to do so, it
shall order the Office of the Securities and Exchange
Commission where the certificate is recorded, to record
the cancellation or amendment of the certificate; and
when the certificate is to be amended, the court shall
also cause to be filed for record in said office a certified
copy of its decree setting forth the amendment.

Commission, where the certificate is recorded:
(1) A writing in accordance with the provisions of the first
or second paragraph, or
(2) A certified copy of the order of the court in accordance
with the provisions of the fourth paragraph;
(3) After the certificate is duly amended in accordance
with this article, the amended certified shall thereafter be
for all purposes the certificate provided for in this
