The definition of Unlimited Liability should give you a clue into what it refers to.

The liability of the owner of a business for all the obligations of a business. An owner's personal assets (private home, etc) can be seized in order to pay any debts incurred by the business he owns. The placement of personal assets at risk is a great disadvantage of proprietorship and general partnerships. The ability to limit the amount of liability an owner is subject to is a major reason for the formation of corporations and limited partnerships.
