Except to the extent otherwise provided in the governing instrument of the business trust, a series established in accordance with this chapter may be dissolved and its affairs wound up without causing the dissolution of the business trust or any other series thereof. Unless otherwise provided in the governing instrument of the business trust, the dissolution, winding up, liquidation or termination of the business trust or any series thereof shall not affect the limitation of liability with respect to a series established in accordance with this chapter.

Except to the extent otherwise provided in the governing instrument of a business trust, the death, incapacity, dissolution, termination, or bankruptcy of a beneficial owner of such series shall not result in the termination or dissolution of such series and such series may not be terminated or revoked by a beneficial owner of such series or other person except in accordance with the terms of the governing instrument of the business trust.
