2021 Georgia Code|Title 11 - Commercial Code|Article 2A - Leases|Part 2 - Formation and Construction of Lease Contract|§ 11-2A-209. Lessee Under Finance Lease as Beneficiary of Supply Contract

  The benefit of a supplier's promises to the lessor under the supply contract and of all warranties, whether express or implied, including those of any third party provided in connection with or as part of the supply contract, extends to the lessee to the extent of the lessee's leasehold interest under a finance lease related to the supply contract, but is subject to the terms of the warranty and of the supply contract and all defenses or claims arising therefrom.   The extension of the benefit of a supplier's promises and of warranties to the lessee (Code Section 11-2A-209(1)) does not:(i) modify the rights and obligations of the parties to the supply contract, whether arising therefrom or otherwise, or (ii) impose any duty or liability under the supply contract on the lessee.   Any modification or rescission of the supply contract by the supplier and the lessor is effective between the supplier and the lessee unless, before the modification or rescission, the supplier has received notice that the lessee has entered into a finance lease related to the supply contract.If the modification or rescission is effective between the supplier and the lessee, the lessor is deemed to have assumed, in addition to the obligations of the lessor to the lessee under the lease contract, promises of the supplier to the lessor and warranties that were so modified or rescinded as they existed and were available to the lessee before modification or rescission.   In addition to the extension of the benefit of the supplier's promises and of warranties to the lessee under subsection (1), the lessee retains all rights that the lessee may have against the supplier which arise from an agreement between the lessee and the supplier or under other law.

2021 Georgia Code|Title 11 - Commercial Code|Article 2A - Leases|Part 2 - Formation and Construction of Lease Contract|§ 11-2A-210. Express Warranties

  Express warranties by the lessor are created as follows:     Any affirmation of fact or promise made by the lessor to the lessee which relates to the goods and becomes part of the basis of the bargain creates an express warranty that the goods will conform to the affirmation or promise.   Any description of the goods which is made part of the basis of the bargain creates an express warranty that the goods will conform to the description.   Any sample or model that is made part of the basis of the bargain creates an express warranty that the whole of the goods will conform to the sample or model.    It is not necessary to the creation of an express warranty that the lessor use formal words, such as "warrant" or "guarantee," or that the lessor have a specific intention to make a warranty, but an affirmation merely of the value of the goods or a statement purporting to be merely the lessor's opinion or commendation of the goods does not create a warranty.

  There is in a lease contract a warranty that for the lease term no person holds a claim to or interest in the goods that arose from an act or omission of the lessor, other than a claim by way of infringement or the like, which will interfere with the lessee's enjoyment of its leasehold interest.   Except in a finance lease there is in a lease contract by a lessor who is a merchant regularly dealing in goods of the kind a warranty that the goods are delivered free of the rightful claim of any person by way of infringement or the like.   A lessee who furnishes specifications to a lessor or a supplier shall hold the lessor and the supplier harmless against any claim by way of infringement or the like that arises out of compliance with the specifications.

  Except in a finance lease, a warranty that the goods will be merchantable is implied in a lease contract if the lessor is a merchant with respect to goods of that kind.   Goods to be merchantable must be at least such as:     Pass without objection in the trade under the description in the lease agreement;   In the case of fungible goods, are of fair average quality within the description;   Are fit for the ordinary purposes for which goods of that type are used;   Run, within the variation permitted by the lease agreement, of even kind, quality, and quantity within each unit and among all units involved;   Are adequately contained, packaged, and labeled as the lease agreement may require; and   Conform to any promises or affirmations of fact made on the container or label.    Other implied warranties may arise from course of dealing or usage of trade.    (Code 1981, §11-2A-212, enacted by Ga. L. 1993, p. 633, § 1.)

 Except in a finance lease, if the lessor at the time the lease contract is made has reason to know of any particular purpose for which the goods are required and that the lessee is relying on the lessor's skill or judgment to select or furnish suitable goods, there is in the lease contract an implied warranty that the goods will be fit for that purpose.

  Words or conduct relevant to the creation of an express warranty and words or conduct tending to negate or limit a warranty must be construed wherever reasonable as consistent with each other; but, subject to the provisions of Code Section 11-2A-202 on parol or extrinsic evidence, negation or limitation is inoperative to the extent that the construction is unreasonable.   Subject to subsection (3), to exclude or modify the implied warranty of merchantability or any part of it the language must mention "merchantability," be by a writing, and be conspicuous.Subject to subsection (3), to exclude or modify any implied warranty of fitness the exclusion must be by a writing and be conspicuous.Language to exclude all implied warranties of fitness is sufficient if it is in writing, is conspicuous and states, for example, "There is no warranty that the goods will be fit for a particular purpose."   Notwithstanding subsection (2), but subject to subsection (4),     Unless the circumstances indicate otherwise, all implied warranties are excluded by expressions like "as is," or "with all faults," or by other language that in common understanding calls the lessee's attention to the exclusion of warranties and makes plain that there is no implied warranty, if inwriting and conspicuous;   If the lessee before entering into the lease contract has examined the goods or the sample or model as fully as desired or has refused to examine the goods, there is no implied warranty with regard to defects that an examination ought in the circumstances to have revealed; and   An implied warranty may also be excluded or modified by course of dealing, course of performance, or usage of trade.    To exclude or modify a warranty against interference or against infringement (Code Section 11-2A-211) or any part of it, the language must be specific, be by a writing, and be conspicuous, unless the circumstances, including course of performance, course of dealing, or usage of trade, give the lessee reason to know that the goods are being leased subject to a claim or interest of any person.

 Warranties, whether express or implied, must be construed as consistent with each other and as cumulative, but if that construction is unreasonable, the intention of the parties determines which warranty is dominant. In ascertaining that intention the following rules apply:    Exact or technical specifications displace an inconsistent sample or model or general language of description.   A sample from an existing bulk displaces inconsistent general language of description.   Express warranties displace inconsistent implied warranties other than an implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose.     (Code 1981, §11-2A-215, enacted by Ga. L. 1993, p. 633, § 1.)

 A warranty to or for the benefit of a lessee under this article, whether express or implied, extends to any natural person who is in the family or household of the lessee or who is a guest in the lessee's home if it is reasonable to expect that such person may use, consume, or be affected by the goods and who is injured in person by breach of the warranty. This Code section does not displace principles of law and equity that extend a warranty to or for the benefit of a lessee to other persons. The operation of this Code section may not be excluded, modified, or limited, but an exclusion, modification, or limitation of the warranty, including any with respect to rights and remedies, effective against the lessee is also effective against any beneficiary designated under this Code section.

 Identification of goods as goods to which a lease contract refers may be made at any time and in any manner explicitly agreed to by the parties.In the absence of explicit agreement, identification occurs:    When the lease contract is made if the lease contract is for a lease of goods that are existing and identified;   When the goods are shipped, marked, or otherwise designated by the lessor as goods to which the lease contract refers, if the lease contract is for a lease of goods that are not existing and identified; or   When the young are conceived, if the lease contract is for a lease of unborn young of animals.

2021 Georgia Code|Title 11 - Commercial Code|Article 2A - Leases|Part 2 - Formation and Construction of Lease Contract|§ 11-2A-218. Insurance and Proceeds

  A lessee obtains an insurable interest when existing goods are identified to the lease contract even though the goods identified are nonconforming and the lessee has an option to reject them.   If a lessee has an insurable interest only by reason of the lessor's identification of the goods, the lessor, until default or insolvency or notification to the lessee that identification is final, may substitute other goods for those identified.   Notwithstanding a lessee's insurable interest under subsections (1) and (2), the lessor retains an insurable interest until an option to buy has been exercised by the lessee and risk of loss has passed to the lessee.   Nothing in this section impairs any insurable interest recognized under any other statute or rule of law.   The parties by agreement may determine that one or more parties have an obligation to obtain and pay for insurance covering the goods and by agreement may determine the beneficiary of the proceeds of the insurance.

2021 Georgia Code|Title 11 - Commercial Code|Article 2A - Leases|Part 2 - Formation and Construction of Lease Contract|§ 11-2A-219. Risk of Loss

  Except in the case of a finance lease, risk of loss is retained by the lessor and does not pass to the lessee.In the case of a finance lease, risk of loss passes to the lessee.   Subject to the provisions of this article on the effect of default on risk of loss (Code Section 11-2A-220), if risk of loss is to pass to the lessee and the time of passage is not stated, the following rules apply:     If the lease contract requires or authorizes the goods to be shipped by carrier   If the goods are held by a bailee to be delivered without being moved, the risk of loss passes to the lessee on acknowledgment by the bailee of the lessee's right to possession of the goods.   In any case not within subsection (a) or (b), the risk of loss passes to the lessee on the lessee's receipt of the goods if the lessor, or, in the case of a finance lease, the supplier, is a merchant; otherwise the risk passes to the lessee on tender of delivery.    And it does not require delivery at a particular destination, the risk of loss passes to the lessee when the goods are duly delivered to the carrier; but   If it does require delivery at a particular destination and the goods are there duly tendered while in the possession of the carrier, the risk of loss passes to the lessee when the goods are there duly so tendered as to enable the lessee to take delivery.

  Where risk of loss is to pass to the lessee and the time of passage is not stated:     If a tender or delivery of goods so fails to conform to the lease contract as to give a right of rejection, the risk of their loss remains with the lessor, or, in the case of a finance lease, the supplier, until cure or acceptance.   If the lessee rightfully revokes acceptance, he, to the extent of any deficiency in his effective insurance coverage, may treat the risk of loss as having remained with the lessor from the beginning.    Whether or not risk of loss is to pass to the lessee, if the lessee as to conforming goods already identified to a lease contract repudiates or is otherwise in default under the lease contract, the lessor, or, in the case of a finance lease, the supplier, to the extent of any deficiency in his effective insurance coverage may treat the risk of loss as resting on the lessee for a commercially reasonable time.

 If a lease contract requires goods identified when the lease contract is made, and the goods suffer casualty without fault of the lessee, the lessor or the supplier before delivery, or the goods suffer casualty before risk of loss passes to the lessee pursuant to the lease agreement or Code Section 11-2A-219, then:    If the loss is total, the lease contract is avoided; and   If the loss is partial or the goods have so deteriorated as to no longer conform to the lease contract, the lessee may nevertheless demand inspection and at his option either treat the lease contract as avoided or, except in a finance lease that is not a consumer lease, accept the goods with due allowance from the rent payable for the balance of the lease term for the deterioration or the deficiency in quantity but without further right against the lessor.

  Subject to Section 11-2A-303, a subsequent lessee from a lessor of goods under an existing lease contract obtains, to the extent of the leasehold interest transferred, the leasehold interest in the goods that the lessor had or had power to transfer, and except as provided in subsection (2) and Code Section 11-2A-527(4), takes subject to the existing lease contract.A lessor with voidable title has power to transfer a good leasehold interest to a good faith subsequent lessee for value, but only to the extent set forth in the preceding sentence.If goods have been delivered under a transaction of purchase, the lessor has that power even though:     The lessor's transferor was deceived as to the identity of the lessor;   The delivery was in exchange for a check which is later dishonored;   It was agreed that the transaction was to be a "cash sale"; or   The delivery was procured through fraud punishable as larcenous under the criminal law.    A subsequent lessee in the ordinary course of business from a lessor who is a merchant dealing in goods of that kind to whom the goods were entrusted by the existing lessee of that lessor before the interest of the subsequent lessee became enforceable against that lessor obtains, to the extent of the leasehold interest transferred, all of that lessor's and the existing lessee's rights to the goods, and takes free of the existing lease contract.   A subsequent lessee from the lessor of goods that are subject to an existing lease contract and are covered by a certificate of title issued under a statute of this State or of another jurisdiction takes no greater rights than those provided both by this section and by the certificate of title statute.

  Subject to the provisions of Code Section 11-2A-303, a buyer or sublessee from the lessee of goods under an existing lease contract obtains, to the extent of the interest transferred, the leasehold interest in the goods that the lessee had or had power to transfer, and except as provided in subsection (2) and Code Section 11-2A-511(4), takes subject to the existing lease contract.A lessee with a voidable leasehold interest has power to transfer a good leasehold interest to a good faith buyer for value or a good faith sublessee for value, but only to the extent set forth in the preceding sentence.When goods have been delivered under a transaction of lease the lessee has that power even though:     The lessor was deceived as to the identity of the lessee;   The delivery was in exchange for a check which is later dishonored; or   The delivery was procured through fraud punishable as larcenous under the criminal law.    A buyer in the ordinary course of business or a sublessee in the ordinary course of business from a lessee who is a merchant dealing in goods of that kind to whom the goods were entrusted by the lessor obtains, to the extent of the interest transferred, all of the lessor's and lessee's rights to the goods, and takes free of the existing lease contract.   A buyer or sublessee from the lessee of goods that are subject to an existing lease contract and are covered by a certificate of title issued under a statute of this State or of another jurisdiction takes no greater rights than those provided both by this section and by the certificate of title statute.

 If a person in the ordinary course of his business furnishes services or materials with respect to goods subject to a lease contract, a lien upon those goods in the possession of that person given by statute or rule of law for those materials or services takes priority over any interest of the lessor or lessee under the lease contract or this article unless (i) the lien is created by statute and the statute provides otherwise; (ii) the lien is created by rule of law and the rule of law provides otherwise; or (iii) with regard to the rights of a creditor of the lessor or lessee, a different priority would result by application of Code Section 11-9-310.
