If the particulars of the registration of a design right recorded in the Registry are modified or changed in the United Kingdom or in the European Community or there is a change of the registered agent, the owner of the design right, by the owner's duly authorised registered agent, shall notify the Registrar with full particulars and tender the fee specified in the Schedule for recording of a change of particulars and the Registrar shall record the particulars of such change in the records of the Registry.
Notwithstanding subsection (1), a default in notification of a modification or change in the United Kingdom or European Community of particulars referred to in subsection (1) shall, until such notification is made, have the effect of causing the rights protected by the recorded entry to be in abeyance as against the person in default for the period of default.
The period of default referred to in subsection (2) is the period from the date the change was recorded in the United Kingdom or the European Community until the date of the notification of the change to the Registrar with tender of the fee specified in the Schedule.
