Such penalty or consequence may take the form of reducing or eliminating the defaulting partner’s interest in the partnership, subordinating the partner’s partnership interest to that of nondefaulting partners, a forced sale of the partner’s partnership interest, forfeiture of the partner’s partnership interest, the lending by other partners of the amount necessary to meet the partner’s commitment, a fixing of the value of the partner’s partnership interest by appraisal or by formula and redemption or sale of the partner’s partnership interest at such value, or other penalty or consequence.
