Warranty agreement
NOTE – Where the Warrantor is not the Contractor the Warranty agreement must be executed by both the Warrantor and the Principal
in the manner required for execution of a deed.
Where any of these parties are a company the Warranty must be executed by having it signed, under the name of the company, by two
or more directors. If there is only one director, it is sufficient if the Warranty agreement is signed under the name of the company by that
director, but the signature must be witnessed by another person.
The witness must not only sign but must also add his or her occupation and address. Alternatively, companies may execute under
PY
power of attorney. Where any party is a body corporate the warranty agreement must be executed by affixing the body corporate seal,
which must be attested in the manner provided for in the clauses of, or applicable to, the body corporate deed.
In the case of a party who is an individual, the party must sign and the signature must be witnessed by another person. The witness
must not only sign but must also add his or her occupation and address.
