SUPREME COURT REPORTS ANNOTATED VOLUME 745 9/14/19, 6:48 PM
from May 16, 1998, the date the MOA in order to effect the transfer
of APIC and PEC shares of defendant to plaintiff; that plaintiff
learned from defendant that APIC does not actually own a single
share in APC; that plaintiff verified with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC), by obtaining a General Information
Sheet therefrom (Exh. „C-Attachment‰); that APIC does not in fact
own APC; that defendant induced plaintiff to still remit its
investment to defendant, which plaintiff did as admitted by
defendant per its Confirmation Letter (Exh. „D‰) in order that APC
shares could be transferred to APIC; that plaintiff remitted a total
of US$7,499,945.00 to defendant; and that during the forty-day
period stipulated in the MOA and even after the lapse of the said
period, defendant has not entered into the SPA, nor has defendant
caused the transfer of APC shares to APIC.
In the second „Whereas‰ clause of the MOA (Exh. „C‰),
defendantÊs misrepresentation that APIC owns APC is made clear,
as follows:
„WHEREAS, WELLEX, on the other hand, has current airline
operation in the Philippines through its majority-owned subsidiary
Air Philippines International Corporation (Exh. „C‰) and the latterÊs
subsidiary, Air Philippines

SUPREME COURT REPORTS ANNOTATED VOLUME 745 9/14/19, 6:48 PM
and a certified copy per the MOA between plaintiff and defendant.
As can be also gathered from her testimony, Ms. Ting does not have
personal knowledge that plaintiff was not informed that APIC did
not own shares of APC during the negotiations as she was not
present during the negotiations between plaintiff and defendantÊs
William Gatchalian. Her participation in the agreement between
the parties [was] merely limited to the preparation of the
documents to be signed. Ms. Ting testified, as follows:
„Q During the negotiation, you did not know anything about
that?‰
A I was not involved in the negotiation, sir.
Q And you are just making your statement that
U-Land knew about the intended transfer of shares from APC to
APIC because of this WHEREAS CLAUSE and the Annex to this
Memorandum of Agreement?
A Yes, it was part of the contract.‰

lars, did you ever know if plaintiff asked for evidence from your
company that AIR PHILIPPINES INTERNATIONAL
CORPORATION has already acquired shares of AIR PHILIPPINES
CORPORATION?
A There were queries on the matter.
Q And what was your answer to those queries, Madam Witness?
A We informed them that the decision was still in the process.
Q Even up to the time that plaintiff U-Land stopped the
remittances sometime in September 1998 you have not effected the
transfer of shares of AIR PHILIPPINES CORPORATION to AIR
PHILIPPINES INTERNATIONCAL [sic] CORPORATION[,] am I
correct?
A APC to APIC, well at that time itÊs still in the process.
Q In fact, Madam Witness, is it not correct for me to say that one
of the reasons why U-Land Incorporated was convinced to remit the
amounts of money totalling seven million dollars plus, was that
your company said that it needed funds to effect these transfers, is
that correct?
A Yes, sir.‰
(Ibid., pp. 25-29.)
As the evidence adduced by the parties stand, plaintiff has
established the fact that it had made remittances in the total
amount of US$7,499,945.00 to defendant in order that defendant
will make good its representation that APC is a subsidiary of APIC.

On the other hand, Article 1191 of the New Civil Code refers to
rescission applicable to reciprocal obligations. Reciprocal obligations
are those which arise from the same cause, and in which each party
is a debtor and a creditor of the other, such that the obligation of
one is dependent upon the obligation of the other. They are to be
performed simultaneously such that the performance of one is
conditioned upon the simultaneous fulfillment of the other.
Rescission of reciprocal obligations under Article 1191 of the New
Civil Code should be distinguished from rescission of contracts
under Article 1383. Although both presuppose contracts validly
entered into and subsisting and both require mutual restitution
when proper, they are not entirely identical.
While Article 1191 uses the term „rescission,‰ the original term
which was used in the old Civil Code, from which the article was
based, was „resolution.‰ Resolution is a principal action which is
based on breach of a party, while rescission under Article 1383 is a
subsidiary action limited to cases of rescission for lesion under
Article 1381 of the New Civil Code, which expressly enumerates the
following rescissible contracts:
