Terms implied into contracts79

1

This regulation applies where—

a

a protected cell company enters into a contract with a person; and

b

the person may assert a right under the contract against the protected cell company in respect of a part of the protected cell company (“part A”).

2

The following terms are implied into the contract—

a

the person may only assert that right in respect of part A;

b

the person waives any right that the person may have to make a claim which—

i

arises under the law of a country or territory other than the United Kingdom; and

ii

entitles the person to assert that right in respect of any part of the protected cell company other than part A;

c

if the person obtains property from the protected cell company by asserting that right in respect of a part of the protected cell company other than part A, then the person—

i

will transfer the property to the protected cell company to hold on behalf of that other part without delay; and

ii

holds the property on trust for the benefit of that other part until the transfer takes effect.

3

A provision, whether contained in the instrument of incorporation, a contract or otherwise, is void to the extent that it purports to waive or limit the effect of the implied terms referred to in paragraph (2).
