Article 629Liability for Distribution of Profits

第六百二十九条(利益の配当に関する責任)

If a limited liability company effects the distribution of profit in violation of the provisions of the preceding paragraph, the members that executed the operations in connection with relevant distribution of profits are jointly and severally liable to relevant limited liability company, together with the members that received relevant distribution of profits, for payment of the monies in an amount equivalent to relevant distributed amount;provided, however, that this does not apply if relevant members who executed relevant operations have proven that they did not fail to exercise due care with respect to the performance of their duties:

合同会社が前条の規定に違反して利益の配当をした場合には、当該利益の配当に関する業務を執行した社員は、当該合同会社に対し、当該利益の配当を受けた社員と連帯して、当該配当額に相当する金銭を支払う義務を負う。ただし、当該業務を執行した社員がその職務を行うについて注意を怠らなかったことを証明した場合は、この限りでない。

Exemption from the obligations in the preceding paragraph cannot be given;provided, however, that this does not apply if consent of all members is obtained with respect to the exemption of relevant obligations, to the extent of the amount of profits at the day when the distribution of profits takes place.

前項の義務は、免除することができない。ただし、利益の配当をした日における利益額を限度として当該義務を免除することについて総社員の同意がある場合は、この限りでない。
