NOTARY

This statement must be executed before the notary within six months from date of marriage. In this instance the parties have one (1) month to execute the statement.

(6)

3.2 If the statement is not executed timeously then the commencement value of the parties' estates is deemed to be NIL. (2)

3.3 The original executed Section 6 statement must be sent to the Notary in Johannesburg who executed the antenuptial contract. (2)

QUESTION 4 [41

4.1 A Civil Union is the voluntary union of two persons who are both 18 years or older and which union is solemnised and registered by either a marriage or a civil partnership, to the exclusion, while it lasts, of all others. The Civil Union is solemnised and registered in terms of the Civil Union Act 17 of 2006. (2)

4.2 No impact. The provisions of the Matrimonial Property Act are applicable in exactly the same manner. (2)

QUESTION 5 [20]

5.1 The power of assumption allows an executor the opportunity to assume, or take on, another person to assist the appointed executor as executor in winding up the estate. The power is not exercisable as a matter of course, but only if so determined in the will of the deceased. (2)

5.2 The executor must return the original letters of appointment to the Master, together with a deed of assumption, and acceptance of trust as executor by the executor to be assumed. Unless the will specifically states that any assumed executor need not furnish security, a bond of security also needs to be lodged. (A parent, child or

5.3

surviving spouse is exempted - Section 23(2)(a) of the Estates Act.) (2)

a) A fixed amount as determined or directed by the deceased in his/her will; orb) 3,5% of the gross assetsc) 6% of income after death

Should the Executor be a VAT-vendor, VAT should be added to these amounts.

5.4 20% of the value of the estate. (2) (1)

LEGAL EDUCATION AND DEVELOPMENT [L.EA.DJCM 9

Page 10: NOTARIAL PRACTICE I NOTARIELE PRAKTYK 11 …

5.5 R3,5m estate duty rebate is allowed. Any portion hereof not utilised may be rolled over to the estate of the surviving spouse. A married couple is thus able to utilise a R7m total rebate. (2)

5.6 20% on the market value of the donation. R100 000.00 per annum is exempted (2)

5.7 A Trust does not enjoy the primary residence rebate. The time-apportionment method will however apply: the property was held for 20 years, 5 of which were before the introduction of capital gains tax. 75% of the gain will therefore be taxable. The effective rate of cgt for trusts in 2017 is 32,8% (80% of 41 %). No provision is made for the time value of money (CPI). The total gain is therefore R2m x 75% x 32,8%. Using the conduit principle and allocating the gain to natural person beneficiaries of the Trust, the cgt may be reduced to an effective rate of 16,4% (40% x 41%). (4)

5.8 George's son is a connected person who will not be using the vehicle to make taxable supplies, therefore Section 10(4) applies and the estate is liable to amount for VAT on the open market value of the vehicle (R25 000 x 14/114).

The employees of Zeus Catering are not connected persons in relation to George and therefore the general valuation rule applies. Consequently the value of the supplies is NIL as the employees are not required to pay any consideration to acquire the assets. Output tax on these assets is therefore NIL.

George's private assets did not form part of his enterprise and the distribution to his spouse is therefore not subject to VAT. (5)

QUESTION 6 [20]

NOTE TO EXAMINER: IT IS SUGGESTED THAT THE MOST PRACTICAL WAY TO

ATTAIN THE PROTECTIONS REQUIRED BY THE TESTATOR AND CONSIDER/NG ACT

70ll0 WOULD BE BY WAY OF A TRUST MORTIS CAUSA. THERE MAY OF COURSE BE

OTHER OPTIONS.

7.1.1 Non Causa debiti,·

This exception is usually renounced in bonds that are not a loan of money. The renunciation of this exception places the onus of proof on the mortgagor to prove that no debt exists. (2)

7 .1.2 Beneficium ordinis seu excussionis; This exception enables a surety to compel the mortgagee to proceed against the principal debtor first before he can proceed against the surety. This renunciation enables the mortgagee to proceed against the surety before excussing the principal debtor. (2)

7 .1.3 Beneficium divisionis. This exception enables co-sureties to insist that their liability be apportioned amongst themselves and that neither can be sued for more than their pro-rata share. The renunciation of this exception enables the mortgagee to sue one of the sureties without reference to the other sureties and to claim the whole amount of the debt from the one. (2)

7.2.1 This is a pactum commissorium which is invalid as being unduly oppressive and should not be included in the bond. (2)

7.2.2 This is known as parate executie which, although invalid in the case of immovable property, is permissible in the case of movables in possession of the bondholder, provided the rights of the debtor are not prejudiced. It would be advisable to include a provision in the bond entitling the bondholder to take possession of the bonded assets in the event of default. (2)
