Aishen Garment Co entered into a contract with Bulinger Store to sell 10,000 pieces of sportswear to the latter. Under the contract Aishen Garment Co would deliver the goods at Bulinger Store’s warehouse by 30 June 2012 and receive payment upon delivery of the goods.

Having found market conditions tough after the conclusion of the contract, Bulinger Store asked to decrease the quantity of goods, but Aishen Garment Co disagreed. At this moment, Bulinger Store learnt that a company named Conka Sales intended to buy the same garments and resell them to another province. Therefore, Bulinger Store concluded an agreement with Conka Sales to transfer the rights and obligations under its contract with Aishen Garment Co.

Bulinger Store sent a letter to Aishen Garment Co, notifying it that the rights and obligations under the contract had been transferred to Conka Sales. Aishen Garment Co did not reply to the letter.

On 15 June 2012, however, Aishen Garment Co sent a fax to advise Conka Sales to be prepared for receiving the goods. At the end of June Aishen Garment Co delivered 10,000 pieces of sportswear to the premises of Conka Sales and received the total price paid by Conka Sales. However, a certificate of inspection issued by an independent institute indicated that nearly 30% of the goods were below the quality standard. Therefore, Conka Sales intended to reject the goods. Aishen Garment Co insisted that there was no contractual relationship between them, since it was merely under its contract with Bulinger Store to directly deliver the goods to Conka Sales.

Required:

Answer the following questions in accordance with the Contract Law of China, and give your reasons for your answers:

(a) state whether there was a contractual relationship between Aishen Garment Co and Conka Sales;

(b) state whether Aishen Garment Co or Bulinger Store should be liable for the defects of the goods.

 For the purpose of expanding its business, Drinking Co intended to get a loan of RMB 30 million yuan for two years from City Bank and was willing to provide shares of TCL, a listed company, as a guarantee. On 15 June 2012, the two parties entered into a loan agreement and pledge agreement, which stipulated that Drinking Co should provide 10 million TCL shares as the pledge of rights. On 16 June 2012, they went to the relevant statutory institution and jointly applied for a pledge registration of TCL shares. On the date of registration, the price of TCL shares held by Drinking Co was RMB 5·00/share, total market value of the shares was 50 million yuan.

Six months after the registration of the pledge agreement, the price of TCL shares rose to RMB 6·00/share because of the substantive good news for the securities market. Having analysed the latest market situation, Drinking Co intended to sell the shares under the pledge and make an early repayment with the gains from such transactions. City Bank, however, disagreed with the proposal on the grounds that the debt under the loan agreement did not mature and this would cause liquidated damages to City Bank if Drinking Co insisted on the proposal. A dispute emerged between the two parties.

Required:

Answer the following questions in accordance with the Property Law of China, and give your reasons for your answers:

(a) state the date on which the right to pledge was established and the institution the pledge should be registered with;

(b) state the institution which the pledge should be registered with if TCL were a limited liability company;

(c) state whether City Bank was entitled to refuse the proposal of Drinking Co to sell the shares and make an early repayment.

In relation to the Contract Law of China:

(b) state TWO examples of subject matter of a contract that are deemed to be a form of non-monetary obligation;
