§ 2A304. Subsequent lease of goods by lessor.  (a) General rule.--Subject to section 2A303 (relating to alienability of party's interest under lease contract or of lessor's residual interest in goods; delegation of performance; transfer of rights), 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 (b) and section 2A527(d) (relating to lessor's rights to dispose of goods), 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:  (1) the lessor's transferor was deceived as to the identity of the lessor;  (2) the delivery was in exchange for a check which is later dishonored;  (3) it was agreed that the transaction was to be a "cash sale"; or  (4) the delivery was procured through fraud punishable as larcenous under the criminal law.  (b) Merchants regularly dealing in goods.--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.  (c) Goods covered by certificate of title.--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 Commonwealth or of another jurisdiction takes no greater rights than those provided both by this section and by the certificate of title statute.  Cross References. Section 2A304 is referred to in sections 2A104, 2A105, 7209, 7503 of this title.

§ 2A305. Sale or sublease of goods by lessee.  (a) General rule.--Subject to the provisions of section 2A303 (relating to alienability of party's interest under lease contract or of lessor's residual interest in goods; delegation of performance; transfer of rights), 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 (b) and section 2A511(d) (relating to merchant lessee's duties as to rightfully rejected goods), 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:  (1) the lessor was deceived as to the identity of the lessee;  (2) the delivery was in exchange for a check which is later dishonored; or  (3) the delivery was procured through fraud punishable as larcenous under the criminal law.  (b) Merchants regularly dealing in goods.--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.  (c) Goods covered by certificate of title.--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 Commonwealth or of another jurisdiction takes no greater rights than those provided both by this section and by the certificate of title statute.

§ 2A306. Priority of certain liens arising by operation of law. 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 division unless the lien is created by statute and the statute provides otherwise or unless the lien is created by rule of law and the rule of law provides otherwise.

§ 2A308. Special rights of creditors.  (a) Creditor of lessor.--A creditor of a lessor in possession of goods subject to a lease contract may treat the lease contract as void if as against the creditor retention of possession by the lessor is fraudulent under any statute or rule of law, but retention of possession in good faith and current course of trade by the lessor for a commercially reasonable time after the lease contract becomes enforceable is not fraudulent.  (b) Nonimpairment of rights of creditor of lessor.--Nothing in this division impairs the rights of creditors of a lessor if the lease contract:  (1) becomes enforceable, not in current course of trade but in satisfaction of or as security for a preexisting claim for money, security or the like; and  (2) is made under circumstances which under any statute or rule of law apart from this division would constitute the transaction a fraudulent transfer or voidable preference.  (c) Creditor of seller.--A creditor of a seller may treat a sale or an identification of goods to a contract for sale as void if as against the creditor retention of possession by the seller is fraudulent under any statute or rule of law, but retention of possession of the goods pursuant to a lease contract entered into by the seller as lessee and the buyer as lessor in connection with the sale or identification of the goods is not fraudulent if the buyer bought for value and in good faith.

2021 Pennsylvania Consolidated & Unconsolidated Statutes|Title 13 - COMMERCIAL CODE|Chapter 2A3 - Effect of Lease Contract|Section 2A310 - Lessor's and lessee's rights when goods become accessions

§ 2A310. Lessor's and lessee's rights when goods become  accessions.  (a) Definition.--Goods are "accessions" when they are installed in or affixed to other goods.  (b) Priority of interest before accession.--The interest of a lessor or a lessee under a lease contract entered into before the goods became accessions is superior to all interests in the whole except as stated in subsection (d).  (c) Priority of interest on or after accession.--The interest of a lessor or a lessee under a lease contract entered into at the time or after the goods became accessions is superior to all subsequently acquired interests in the whole except as stated in subsection (d) but is subordinate to interests in the whole existing at the time the lease contract was made unless the holders of such interests in the whole have in writing consented to the lease or disclaimed an interest in the goods as part of the whole.  (d) Subordination to interest in the whole.--The interest of a lessor or a lessee under a lease contract described in subsection (b) or (c) is subordinate to the interest of:  (1) a buyer in the ordinary course of business or a lessee in the ordinary course of business of any interest in the whole acquired after the goods became accessions; or  (2) a creditor with a security interest in the whole perfected before the lease contract was made to the extent that the creditor makes subsequent advances without knowledge of the lease contract.  (e) Removal of goods if interest has priority.--When under subsections (b) or (c) and (d) a lessor or a lessee of accessions holds an interest that is superior to all interests in the whole, the lessor or the lessee may:  (1) on default, expiration, termination or cancellation of the lease contract by the other party but subject to the provisions of the lease contract and this division; or  (2) if necessary to enforce his other rights and remedies under this division; remove the goods from the whole, free and clear of all interests in the whole, but he must reimburse any holder of an interest in the whole who is not the lessee and who has not otherwise agreed for the cost of repair of any physical injury but not for any diminution in value of the whole caused by the absence of the goods removed or by any necessity for replacing them. A person entitled to reimbursement may refuse permission to remove until the party seeking removal gives adequate security for the performance of this obligation.  Cross References.

2021 Pennsylvania Consolidated & Unconsolidated Statutes|Title 13 - COMMERCIAL CODE|Chapter 2A4 - Performance of Lease Contract: Repudiated, Substituted and Excused|Section 2A401 - Insecurity: adequate assurance of performance

§ 2A401. Insecurity: adequate assurance of performance.  (a) General rule.--A lease contract imposes an obligation on each party that the other's expectation of receiving due performance will not be impaired.  (b) Demand for adequate assurance of performance.--If reasonable grounds for insecurity arise with respect to the performance of either party, the insecure party may demand in writing adequate assurance of due performance. Until the insecure party receives that assurance, if commercially reasonable the insecure party may suspend any performance for which he has not already received the agreed return.  (c) Failure to provide adequate assurance of performance.--A repudiation of the lease contract occurs if assurance of due performance adequate under the circumstances of the particular case is not provided to the insecure party within a reasonable time, not to exceed 30 days after receipt of a demand by the other party.  (d) Reasonableness and adequacy between merchants.--Between merchants, the reasonableness of grounds for insecurity and the adequacy of any assurance offered must be determined according to commercial standards.  (e) Effect of acceptance of nonconforming delivery or payment.--Acceptance of any nonconforming delivery or payment does not prejudice the aggrieved party's right to demand adequate assurance of future performance.

§ 2A402. Anticipatory repudiation. If either party repudiates a lease contract with respect to a performance not yet due under the lease contract, the loss of which performance will substantially impair the value of the lease contract to the other, the aggrieved party may:  (1) for a commercially reasonable time, await retraction of repudiation and performance by the repudiating party;  (2) make demand pursuant to section 2A401 (relating to insecurity: adequate assurance of performance) and await assurance of future performance adequate under the circumstances of the particular case; or  (3) resort to any right or remedy upon default under the lease contract or this division, even though the aggrieved party has notified the repudiating party that the aggrieved party would await the repudiating party's performance and assurance and has urged retraction. In addition, whether or not the aggrieved party is pursuing one of the foregoing remedies, the aggrieved party may suspend performance or, if the aggrieved party is the lessor, proceed in accordance with the provisions of this division on the lessor's right to identify goods to the lease contract notwithstanding default or to salvage unfinished goods (section 2A524).

§ 2A403. Retraction of anticipatory repudiation.  (a) When allowable.--Until the repudiating party's next performance is due, the repudiating party can retract the repudiation unless, since the repudiation, the aggrieved party has canceled the lease contract or materially changed the aggrieved party's position or otherwise indicated that the aggrieved party considers the repudiation final.  (b) Method.--Retraction may be by any method that clearly indicates to the aggrieved party that the repudiating party intends to perform under the lease contract and includes any assurance demanded under section 2A401 (relating to insecurity: adequate assurance of performance).  (c) Effect on contract rights.--Retraction reinstates a repudiating party's rights under a lease contract with due excuse and allowance to the aggrieved party for any delay occasioned by the repudiation.

§ 2A404. Substituted performance.  (a) Manner of delivery.--If, without fault of the lessee, the lessor and the supplier, the agreed berthing, loading or unloading facilities fail or the agreed type of carrier becomes unavailable or the agreed manner of delivery otherwise becomes commercially impracticable, but a commercially reasonable substitute is available, the substitute performance must be tendered and accepted.  (b) Manner of payment.--If the agreed means or manner of payment fails because of domestic or foreign governmental regulation:  (1) the lessor may withhold or stop delivery or cause the supplier to withhold or stop delivery unless the lessee provides a means or manner of payment that is commercially a substantial equivalent; and  (2) if delivery has already been taken, payment by the means or in the manner provided by the regulation discharges the lessee's obligation unless the regulation is discriminatory, oppressive or predatory.

(2) If the causes mentioned in paragraph (1) affect only part of the lessor's or the supplier's capacity to perform, he shall allocate production and deliveries among his customers but at his option may include regular customers not then under contract for sale or lease as well as his own requirements for further manufacture. He may so allocate in any manner that is fair and reasonable.  (3) The lessor seasonably shall notify the lessee and in the case of a finance lease the supplier seasonably shall notify the lessor and the lessee, if known, that there will be delay or nondelivery and, if allocation is required under paragraph (2), of the estimated quota thus made available for the lessee.

§ 2A406. Procedure on excused performance.  (a) Right of lessee to terminate or modify contract.--If the lessee receives notification of a material or indefinite delay or an allocation justified under section 2A405 (relating to excused performance), the lessee may by written notification to the lessor as to any goods involved, and with respect to all of the goods if under an installment lease contract the value of the whole lease contract is substantially impaired (section 2A510):  (1) terminate the lease contract (section 2A505(b)); or  (2) except in a finance lease that is not a consumer lease, modify the lease contract by accepting the available quota in substitution, with due allowance from the rent payable for the balance of the lease term for the deficiency but without further right against the lessor.  (b) Time limitation on modification.--If, after receipt of a notification from the lessor under section 2A405, the lessee fails so to modify the lease agreement within a reasonable time not exceeding 30 days, the lease contract lapses with respect to any deliveries affected.

(b) Effect of irrevocable and independent promise.--A promise that has become irrevocable and independent under subsection (a):  (1) is effective and enforceable between the parties, and by or against third parties including assignees of the parties; and  (2) is not subject to cancellation, termination, modification, repudiation, excuse or substitution without the consent of the party to whom the promise runs.
