Article 500Restrictions on Performance of Obligations

第五百条(債務の弁済の制限)

A liquidating stock company cannot perform its obligations during the period of time under paragraph (1) of the preceding Article. In these cases, a liquidating stock company cannot be exempted from the liability arising from its failure to perform.

清算株式会社は、前条第一項の期間内は、債務の弁済をすることができない。この場合において、清算株式会社は、その債務の不履行によって生じた責任を免れることができない。

Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding paragraph, even during the period of time under paragraph (1) of the preceding Article, a liquidating stock company may, with the permission of the court, perform its obligations relating to claims of minor claims, claims secured by security interests over the assets of the liquidating stock company, or other claims unlikely to be detrimental to other creditors even if performed. In these cases, if there are two or more liquidators, the petition for relevant permission must be made with the consent of all of the liquidators.

前項の規定にかかわらず、清算株式会社は、前条第一項の期間内であっても、裁判所の許可を得て、少額の債権、清算株式会社の財産につき存する担保権によって担保される債権その他これを弁済しても他の債権者を害するおそれがない債権に係る債務について、その弁済をすることができる。この場合において、当該許可の申立ては、清算人が二人以上あるときは、その全員の同意によってしなければならない。
