Article 537Restrictions on Performance of Obligations

第五百三十七条(債務の弁済の制限)

If an order is issued for commencement of special liquidation, a liquidating stock company must perform obligations to agreement claim creditors in proportion to the amount of their claims.

特別清算開始の命令があった場合には、清算株式会社は、協定債権者に対して、その債権額の割合に応じて弁済をしなければならない。

Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding paragraph, a liquidating stock company may, with the permission of the court, perform its obligations relating to minor claims, claims secured by security interests, or other claims that are unlikely to be detrimental to other creditors even if performed in excess of the proportion of the amount of the claims.

前項の規定にかかわらず、清算株式会社は、裁判所の許可を得て、少額の協定債権、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協定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協定債権に係る債務について、債権額の割合を超えて弁済をすることができる。
