Interest must be paid from the date of dissociation to the date of payment.
(c) Damages for wrongful dissociation under § 4-46-602(b), and all other amounts owing, whether or not presently due, from the dissociated partner to the partnership, must be offset against the buyout price. Interest must be paid from the date the amount owed becomes due to the date of payment.
