Clause 6 In a dispute arising out of a technology contract, where infringement
of the right of a party occurred before the operative date of the Contract Law,
if there was a lapse of more than one year between the date on which the party
knew or should have known that its right was infringed and the operative date of

a certain contract is subject to completion of the relevant approval procedure,
or the relevant approval and registration procedures, if before completion of
court debate by the parties in the trial of first instance, the parties still
fail to carry out the relevant approval procedure, or approval and registration
procedures, as the case may be, the People's Court shall rule that the contract
has not yet taken effect; if the relevant law or administration regulation
requires that a certain contract be registered without subjecting its
effectiveness to such registration, then failure to effect registration shall
not impair the effectiveness of the contract, provided that such failure
constitutes an impediment to the conveyance of title to, or such other real
right in, the subject matter of the contract.

regulation prohibiting the parties from participation in a particular business
sector.
四、代位權(quán)
IV. Subrogation
第十一條債權(quán)人依照合同法第七十三條的規(guī)定提起代位權(quán)訴訟，應(yīng)當(dāng)符合下列條件：
Clause 11 Where an obligee is to bring a suit of subrogation pursuant to
Article 73 of the Contract Law, the following conditions shall be met:
（一）債權(quán)人對債務(wù)人的債權(quán)合法；
(1) The obligee's creditor's right against the obligor is lawful;
（二）債務(wù)人怠于行使其到期債權(quán)，對債權(quán)人造成損害；
(2) The obligor's delay in exercising the creditor's right due to it has
caused harm to the obligee;
（三）債務(wù)人的債權(quán)已到期；
(3) The creditor's right of the obligor is due;
?。ㄋ模﹤鶆?wù)人的債權(quán)不是專屬于債務(wù)人自身的債權(quán)。
(4) The creditor's right of the obligor is not exclusively personal to it.
第十二條合同法第七十三條第一款規(guī)定的專屬于債務(wù)人自身的債權(quán)，是指基于扶養(yǎng)關(guān)系、撫養(yǎng)關(guān)系、贍養(yǎng)關(guān)系、繼承關(guān)系產(chǎn)生的給付請求權(quán)和勞動報酬、退休金、養(yǎng)老金、撫恤金、安置費、人壽保險、人身傷害賠償請求權(quán)等權(quán)利。
Clause 12 As referred to in Paragraph 1 of Article 73, a creditor's right
exclusively personal to the obligor means a claim for alimony, child support,
parental support or succession, or, a claim for wage, retirement pension, old
age pension, death benefits, relocation allowance or life insurance, or, a
personal injury claim.
第十三條合同法第七十三條規(guī)定的“債務(wù)人怠于行使其到期債權(quán)，對債權(quán)人造成損害的”，是指債務(wù)人不履行其對債權(quán)人的到期債務(wù)，又不以訴訟方式或者仲裁方式向其債務(wù)人主張其享有的具有金錢給付內(nèi)容的到期債權(quán)，致使債權(quán)人的到期債權(quán)未能實現(xiàn)。
Clause 13 The clause "Where the obligor delayed in exercising its creditor's
right against a third person that was due, thereby harming the obligee" in
Article 73 of the Contract Law refers to the following circumstance: The obligor
fails to render performance which is due to the obligee, and further, it has
failed to enforce a creditor's right which is due to it and which involves the
payment of money against an obligor either through a suit in court or through
arbitration, thereby frustrating the obligee's realization of the creditor's
right due to it.
次債務(wù)人（即債務(wù)人的債務(wù)人）不認(rèn)為債務(wù)人有怠于行使其到期債權(quán)情況的，應(yīng)當(dāng)承擔(dān)舉證責(zé)任。
Where the secondary obligor (i.e. the obligor of the original obligor) denies
that the obligor has delayed in exercising its creditor's right due to it, the
secondary obligor bears the burden of proof.
第十四條債權(quán)人依照合同法第七十三條的規(guī)定提起代位權(quán)訴訟的，由被告住所地人民法院管轄。
Clause 14 Where an obligee brings a suit of subrogation pursuant to Article 73

Clause 15 Where after bringing a suit against an obligor to a People's Court,
an obligee brings a suit of subrogation against a secondary obligor to the same
court, if such suit complies with the provisions of Article 13 hereof as well as
the conditions for bringing a suit set forth in Article 108 of the Civil
Procedural Law of the People's Republic of China, the court shall accept such
suit; where such suit does not comply with Article 13 hereof, the court shall
direct the obligee to bring a separate suit to the People's Court in the place
where the secondary obligor is domiciled.
受理代位權(quán)訴訟的人民法院在債權(quán)人起訴債務(wù)人的訴訟裁決發(fā)生法律效力以前，應(yīng)當(dāng)依照《中華人民共和國民事訴訟法》第一百三十六條第（五）項的規(guī)定中止代位權(quán)訴訟。
Before judgment on the suit brought by the obligee against the obligor takes
legal effect, the People's Court adjudicating the suit of subrogation against
the secondary obligor shall stay such suit in accordance with Item (5) of
Article 136 of the Civil Procedural Law of the People's Republic of China.
第十六條債權(quán)人以次債務(wù)人為被告向人民法院提起代位權(quán)訴訟，未將債務(wù)人列為第三人的，人民法院可以追加債務(wù)人為第三人。

obligee names only the secondary obligor as the defendant without also naming
the original obligor as an interested third person, the People's Court may add
the original obligor as an interested third person.
兩個或者兩個以上債權(quán)人以同一次債務(wù)人為被告提起代位權(quán)訴訟的，人民法院可以合并審理。
Where in suits of subrogation brought separately by two or more obligees, the
same secondary obligor is named as the defendant, the People's Court may combine
the suits for adjudication.
第十七條在代位權(quán)訴訟中，債權(quán)人請求人民法院對次債務(wù)人的財產(chǎn)采取保全措施的，應(yīng)當(dāng)提供相應(yīng)的財產(chǎn)擔(dān)保。

the obligee, avail itself of any defense it has against the original obligor.
債務(wù)人在代位權(quán)訴訟中對債權(quán)人的債權(quán)提出異議，經(jīng)審查異議成立的，人民法院應(yīng)當(dāng)裁定駁回債權(quán)人的起訴。
In a suit of subrogation, where the obligor raises a defense against the
obligee's claim, if the People's Court affirms the defense, it shall dismiss the
suit brought by the obligee.
第十九條在代位權(quán)訴訟中，債權(quán)人勝訴的，訴訟費由次債務(wù)人負(fù)擔(dān)，從實現(xiàn)的債權(quán)中優(yōu)先支付。
Clause 19 In a suit of subrogation, if the obligee prevails, the court fee
shall be borne by the secondary obligor, and shall be paid in priority out of
the proceeds from the enforced creditor's right.

Clause 20 Where an obligee brings a suit of subrogation against a secondary
obligor, and the People's Court affirms the subrogation, the secondary obligor
shall perform the payment obligation, whereupon the respective obligee-obligor
relationships between the obligee and the obligor, and between the obligor and
the secondary obligor, are discharged accordingly.
第二十一條在代位權(quán)訴訟中，債權(quán)人行使代位權(quán)的請求數(shù)額超過債務(wù)人所負(fù)債務(wù)額或者超過次債務(wù)人對債務(wù)人所負(fù)債務(wù)額的，對超出部分人民法院不予支持。
Clause 21 In a suit of subrogation, where the amount in subrogation claimed by
the obligee exceeds the amount owed by the obligor or the amount owed to the
obligor by the secondary obligor, the People's Court shall not enforce the claim
to the extent the claimed amount exceeds the actual amount.
第二十二條債務(wù)人在代位權(quán)訴訟中，對超過債權(quán)人代位請求數(shù)額的債權(quán)部分起訴次債務(wù)人的，人民法院應(yīng)當(dāng)告知其向有管轄權(quán)的人民法院另行起訴。
Clause 22 In a suit of subrogation, if the obligor also brings a claim against
the secondary obligor for the difference between the amount owed to it and the
amount in subrogation claimed by the obligee, the People's Court shall direct
