why not rewrite - upgrading is harder as you have baggage to deal with
which may not apply to the current partners - suggest you ask all your
partners to present or bring to a meeting their ideas of what should be
in the agreement in principle, and further, get them to do some of the
donkey work and write out actually worded paragraphs, or else you will
be up for hours and nights and no one will appreciate the effort you
have put in as the end result will *look* so simple...

separate money from time as far as is possible - they equate only
approximately.
in brief however, outside income should go into the partnership pot, BUT
the problem arises when there exist part time partners -and it is a more
basic one of defining practice and personal time/committment.
There is not an easy answer, but of course you know that or you wouldn't
have posted your comment, and it can get very personal when talking
about committment.
A full time GP does not have personal time! (disagreeable, but true)
A part time GP does have personal time (also true)
We do have a part time partner also doing a hospital post, the income
for which is pooled . We gain from income and the expertise, we lose
some partner consultations,and maybe some flexibility.
However, this is not well defined in the agreement, where perhaps it
should be, but to be honest I lost steam in redefining our agreement,
and I admire you for doing it!
