(1)
A contractual prohibition of, or restriction on, the assignment of a right does not affect the assignability of the right.
(2)
However, where a right is assigned in breach of such a prohibition or restriction:
- (a)
the debtor may perform in favour of the assignor and is discharged by so doing; and
- (b)
the debtor retains all rights of set-off against the assignor as if the right had not been assigned.
(3)
Paragraph (2) does not apply if:
- (a)
the debtor has consented to the assignment;
- (b)
the debtor has caused the assignee to believe on reasonable grounds that there was no such prohibition or restriction; or
- (c)
the assigned right is a right to payment for the provision of goods or services.
(4)
The fact that a right is assignable notwithstanding a contractual prohibition or restriction does not affect the assignor's liability to the debtor for any breach of the prohibition or restriction.
