Consequence of discharge of certain contracts

    (1)     If a regulated credit sale contract is rescinded or discharged (whether under this Act or any other law in force in the Territory), any mortgage or guarantee that relates to the contract is also discharged to the extent that it secures or guarantees the payment of a debt or other pecuniary obligation, or the performance of any other obligation, under the regulated credit sale contract.

    (2)     If a contract of sale is rescinded or discharged (whether under this Act or any other law in force in the Territory)—
