(1) No payment shall be made to a limited partner seeking appraisal rights if, at the time of payment, the limited partnership is unable to meet the distribution standards of s. 620.1508. In such event, the limited partner shall, at the limited partner's option:
(a) Withdraw the notice of intent to assert appraisal rights, which shall in such event be deemed withdrawn with the consent of the limited partnership; or
(b) Retain the status as a claimant against the limited partnership and, if the limited partnership is liquidated, be subordinated to the rights of creditors of the limited partnership, but have rights superior to the limited partners not asserting appraisal rights, and, if it is not liquidated, retain the right to be paid for the limited partner interests, which right the limited partnership shall be obliged to satisfy when the restrictions of this section do not apply.
(2) The limited partner shall exercise the option under paragraph (1)(a) or paragraph (1)(b) by written notice filed with the limited partnership within 30 days after the limited partnership has given written notice that the payment for the limited partner interests cannot be made because of the restrictions of this section. If the limited partner fails to exercise the option, the limited partner shall be deemed to have withdrawn the notice of intent to assert appraisal rights.
