This act does not deal specifically with Intermediary Liability but it could be used in certain cases to claim unjust enrichment by the intermediary by the infringing act. Section 1 states “when a person (hereinafter: beneficiary) obtains any property, service or other benefit from another person (hereinafter: benefactor) without legal cause, then the beneficiary will make restitution to the benefactor, and if restitution in kind is impossible or unreasonable, he will pay him the value of the benefit.” Section 2 gives the Court discretions with regard to exemption of the” beneficiary from all or part of the duty to make restitution under section 1, if it finds that receipt of the benefit did not involve any loss to the benefactor, or that other circumstances render restitution unjust.”
