Rescission of an extension to a mortgage granted by the insolvent company securing a preexisting debt of a company of its group
The extension of the term for the delivery of works not authorized by the guarantor that had secured the penalty for delay does not harm it and, therefore, the guarantee is not extinguished; any increase in the penalty agreed does not extinguish the guarantee, but cannot be enforceable on the guarantor that will be liable in the terms agreed in the initial agreement. This decision discussed the effects on the guarantee of the novation of the secured obligation agreed without the guarantor’s knowledge.
The rescission was declared of a mortgage the insolvent company granted over a warehouse it owned in guarantee of the loan a credit institution had granted to a company of its group. The Supreme Court declared (i) that the contextual guarantee was for consideration and (ii) the need for proof of the profit (even indirect) of the guarantor company without merely belonging to the group sufficing, and confirmed that the rescission only affected the guarantee and not the loan.
SUPREME COURT RULING OF APRIL 9, 2014, NO. 175/2014: IN THE RESCISSION OF THE ASSIGNMENT IN PAYMENT AGREEMENT (DACIÓN EN PAGO), THE CREDIT OF THE NONDEFAULTING PARTY IS AN INSOLVENCY CLAIM AND NOT AGAINST THE INSOLVENCY ESTATE
The assignment in payment (dación en pago) of debt is an act extinguishing obligations and not a bilateral agreement. Therefore, its rescission leads to an insolvency claim for the non-defaulting party.
A creditors’ composition agreement has been approved for Pescanova, and section six of the insolvency proceedings (categorisation of the insolvency) has not been opened, as there is a type of creditor whose moratorium is less than three years and whose debt relief is below one third.
