Paragraph 3 Extinguishment of part of rentcharge

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

Where a rentcharge owner receives any sum under paragraph 2 of this Schedule, so much of the rentcharge as is equal to the annual equivalent of the said sum shall be extinguished on the date on which the said sum is paid, and as between the persons interested in the charged land on the one hand and any other land subject to the rentcharge on the other hand, the proper share of the persons interested in the charged land of the liability for the residue of the rentcharge in respect of any period after the extinguishment shall be treated as being the rentcharge attributable to the charged land, less the annual equivalent of the sum so paid.
