Clause 21-22. The insurer's rights in the event of liability

Former Cl. 17-50.

By the term “the liability amount” is meant the lowest of the injured party’s claim, the limitation amount under the law and the insurer’s maximum liability under Cl. 21-25.

Sub-clause 2 refers to the mandatory provision in Section 7-8 of the Norwegian Insurance Contracts Act. The fact that the injured party does not otherwise have a direct claim against the insurer appears from Cl. 4-17, sub-clause 1.
