Tennessee Code Title 48. Corporations and Associations § 48-218-101

(1) A restriction on the assignment of financial rights may be imposed in the articles, in the operating agreement, by a written resolution adopted by the members, or by a written agreement among, or other written action by, members, or among them and the LLC.

(2) A restriction on the assignment of financial rights referenced in subdivision (c)(1) that is not manifestly unreasonable under the circumstances is enforceable against the owner of the restricted financial rights. A written restriction on the assignment of financial rights that is not manifestly unreasonable under the circumstances and is noted in the articles or operating agreement may be enforced against a successor or transferee of the owner of the restricted financial rights, including a pledgee or a legal representative, whether or not such successor or transferee of the owner had actual notice thereof. Unless noted in the articles or operating agreement, a restriction, even though permitted by this section, is ineffective against a person without knowledge of the restriction.
