Schedules

Schedule 1 : Convention

Chapter IX : Assignments of Associated Rights and International Interests; Rights of Subrogation

Article 31 - Effects of assignment

 

 

(1) Except as otherwise agreed by the parties, an assignment of associated rights made in conformity with Article 32 also transfers to the assignee—
(a) the related international interest; and
(b) all the interests and priorities of the assignor under this Convention.

 

(2) Nothing in this Convention prevents a partial assignment of the assignor’s associated rights. In the case of such a partial assignment the assignor and assignee may agree as to their respective rights concerning the related international interest assigned under the preceding paragraph but not so as adversely to affect the debtor without its consent.

 

(3) Subject to paragraph 4, the applicable law shall determine the defences and rights of set-off available to the debtor against the assignee.

 

(4) The debtor may at any time by agreement in writing waive all or any of the defences and rights of set-off referred to in the preceding paragraph other than defences arising from fraudulent acts on the part of the assignee.

 

(5) In the case of an assignment by way of security, the assigned associated rights revest in the assignor, to the extent that they are still subsisting, when the obligations secured by the assignment have been discharged.
