AI Summary

  • Creates a new classification called "special economic interest owner" in North Carolina's Limited Liability Company Act, defined as a person who owns an economic interest with rights to information and to seek dissolution but is not a member.

  • When an LLC member dies or is adjudicated incompetent, the person's estate or court-appointed guardian automatically becomes a special economic interest owner rather than a standard economic interest owner.

  • Special economic interest owners receive three specific rights: the economic interest from the former member's ownership, information rights to inspect books and records, and standing to seek judicial dissolution of the LLC.

  • The standing to seek judicial dissolution may be waived if expressly stated in the LLC's operating agreement.

  • Effective October 1, 2025, applying to information requests and dissolution actions commenced on or after that date.
