 (2) Subregulation (1) does not prevent a disposal:
 (a) in the ordinary course of the company's business; or
 (b) with the written consent of the secured party, owner or lessor, as the case may be; or
 (c) with the leave of the Court.
 (3) The Court may only give leave under paragraph (2)(c) if satisfied that arrangements have been made to adequately protect the interests of the secured party, owner or lessor, as the case may be.
 (4) If the restructuring practitioner proposes to dispose of property under paragraph (2)(a), the Court may, by order, direct the restructuring practitioner not to carry out that proposal.

 (7) If:
 (a) a company has made a restructuring plan that has not terminated; and
 (b) property of the company is subject to a security interest; and
 (c) the restructuring practitioner disposes of the property;
the disposal extinguishes the security interest.
 (8) For the purposes of paragraph (2)(a), if:
 (a) property is used or occupied by, or is in the possession of, a company; and
 (b) another person is the owner of the property; and
 (c) either:
 (i) the property is PPSA retention of title property; or
 (ii) the property is subject to a retention of title clause under a contract; and
 (d) the owner demands the return of the property;
a disposal of the property that occurs after the demand is made does not mean that the disposal is not in the ordinary course of the company's business.
