An Admission of New Partner agreement is an agreement between the Existing Partners of a Partnership and a New Partner wishing to join the Partnership.
This agreement sets out
the terms and conditions for the New Partner as well as the New Participation Ratio's of each Partner. There are no formal rules that apply to these agreements,
and a written contract is therefore not a requirement for the admission of a New Partner, although such an agreement is highly recommended in order to reduce disputes
amongst the Partners, to ensure security of the Partners' position in the Partnership, as well as to provide certainty regarding the consequences of any actions by the
other Partners. In the event that an issue arises amongst the Partners, where there is no written agreement or the agreement does not deal with the issue in dispute, the
provisions of the Partnership Act 1890 as amended shall prevail.
