413Charges associated with debentures
(1)The holding of debentures entitling the holder to a charge on land is not, for the purposes of section 410, deemed to be an interest in land.
(2)Where a series of debentures containing, or giving by reference to any other instrument, any charge to the benefit of which the debenture-holders of that series are entitled pari passu, is created by a company, it is sufficient for purposes of section 410 if there are delivered to or received by the registrar of companies within 21 days after the execution of the deed containing the charge or, if there is no such deed, after the execution of any debentures of the series, the following particulars in the prescribed form—
(a)the total amount secured by the whole series,
(b)the dates of the resolutions authorising the issue of the series and the date of the covering deed (if any) by which the security is created or defined.
(c)a general description of the property charged.
(d)the names of the trustees (if any) for the debenture holders, and
(e)in the case of a floating charge, a statement of any provisions of the charge and of any instrument relating to it which prohibit or restrict or regulate the power of the company to grant further securities ranking in priority to, or pari passu with, the floating charge, or which vary or otherwise regulate the order of ranking of the floating charge in relation to subsisting securities. together with a copy of the deed containing the charge or, if there is no such deed, of one of the debentures of the series:
Provided that, where more than one issue is made of debentures in the series, there shall be sent to the registrar of companies for entry in the register particulars (in the prescribed form) of the date and amount of each issue of debentures of the series, but any omission to do this does not affect the validity of any of those debentures.
(3)Where any commission, allowance or discount has been paid or made, either directly or indirectly, by a company to any person in consideration of his subscribing or agreeing to subscribe, whether absolutely or conditionally, for any debentures of the company, or procuring or agreeing to procure subscriptions (whether absolute or conditional) for any such debentures, the particulars required to be sent for registration under section 410 include particulars as to the amount or rate per cent, of the commission, discount or allowance so paid or made; but any omission to do this does not affect the validity of the debentures issued.
The deposit of any debentures as security for any debt of the company is not, for purposes of this subsection, treated as the issue of the debentures at a discount.
