You could do both depending on the agreements involved.  You would want to dissolve the partnership so that you are no longer liable but a buy out could trigger that under the agreement anyway.  I am assuming here that you want to be bought out of the business, correct?  Bring the paperwork to an attorney to review and let you know the best way to protect yourself in the long run.  Good luck.
