(3) Where such an offer is addressed to persons in general, persons of a particular description 10 or the public at large— 1 (a) revocation is, in a case— (i) other than is mentioned in sub-paragraph (ii), to be effected by the same means as were used to make the offer, and (ii) where the means of effecting revocation is specified in the offer, to be 15 effected by the means so specified, and (b) subsection (1) is to be construed, in determining whether revocation affects a particular person, as if for references in the subsection to the offeree there were substituted references to that person.

(4) For the purposes of subsection (3)— (a) an offeror or offeree who is an individual, or the estate of which may be 35 sequestrated by virtue of section 6 of the Bankruptcy (Scotland) Act 2016, becomes insolvent when— (i) that person’s estate is sequestrated, (ii) that person grants a trust deed for creditors or makes a composition or arrangement with creditors, 40 (iii) a voluntary arrangement proposed by that person is approved, 4 Contract (Formation and Remedies) (Scotland) Bill Part 1—Formation of Contract (iv) that person’s application for a debt payment programme is approved under section 2 of the Debt Arrangement and Attachment (Scotland) Act 2002, or (v) that person becomes subject to any other order or arrangement analogous to those mentioned in sub-paragraphs (i) to (iv) anywhere in the world, and 5 (b) an offeror or offeree other than is mentioned in paragraph (a) becomes insolvent when— (i) a decision approving a voluntary arrangement entered into by that person has effect under section 4A of the Insolvency Act 1986 (“the 1986 Act”), (ii) that person is wound up under Part 4 or 5 of the 1986 Act or under section 10 367 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, 1 (iii) a receiver is appointed, under section 51(1) or (2) of the 1986 Act, over all or part of the property of that person, (iv) that person enters administration (“enters administration” being construed in accordance with paragraph 1(2) of schedule B1 of the 1986 Act), or 15 (v) that person becomes subject to any other order or arrangement analogous to those mentioned in sub-paragraphs (i) to (iv) anywhere in the world.
