Transfers, assignments, novations, leaseback, variations etc
70WTransfers, assignments etc by lessor
1
This section applies in any case where the following conditions are met—
a
a person (the “old lessor”) is lessor of plant or machinery under a plant or machinery lease (the “old lease”),
b
during the term of the lease, the old lessor transfers the plant or machinery to another person (the “new lessor”),
c
the transfer is not the grant of a plant or machinery lease by the old lessor,
d
immediately after the transfer, the new lessor is the lessor of the plant or machinery under a lease (“the new lease”) (whether or not the same lease as the old lease).
2
If it is not otherwise the case,—
a
the old lessor is to be treated as if the old lease terminated immediately before the transfer, and
b
the new lessor is to be treated as if the new lease had been entered into immediately after the transfer.
3
The new lessor is also to be treated as if the date of the transfer were the date of both—
a
the inception of the new lease, and
b
the commencement of the term of the new lease,
if it is not otherwise the case.
4
If, immediately before the transfer, the old lease was (or was treated by virtue of this subsection as being) in the case of the old lessor a lease of either of the following descriptions—
a
a long funding lease, or
b
a lease which is not a long funding lease,
the new lease is to be treated in the case of the new lessor as being a lease of the same description, if the conditions in subsection (5) are met.
5
The conditions are that—
a
the term of the new lease is the unexpired portion of the term of the old lease, and
b
the amounts receivable under the new lease are the same as would have been receivable under the old lease, assuming it to have continued in effect.
6
If—
a
it is not otherwise the case, and
b
the conditions in subsection (5) are met,
the lessee is to be treated as if the old lease and the new lease were the same continuing lease.
7
Any reference in this section to a transfer of plant or machinery by a person includes a reference to—
a
any kind of disposal of, or of the person's interest in, the plant or machinery,
b
any arrangements under which the person's interest in the plant or machinery is terminated and another person becomes lessor of the plant or machinery,
c
in a case where the plant or machinery is a fixture and the person is treated under section 176 as the owner, any cessation of ownership under section 188, 190, 191, 192 or 192A.
