a— Except for public joint-stock companies, the court may decide, at a request by a partner, to dissolve any company if it finds serious reasons justifying such dissolution, and any provision depriving partners from using this right shall be deemed null and void. If such reasons have to do with the acts of any partner, the court may decide to discontinue his membership and to evaluate his share according to the latest inventory, unless the company's memorandum of association provides for another method of evaluation. In this case the company shall continue among the other partners.

b— The court may also decide to dissolve the company at a request by a partner if a partner has not honored his obligations.
