In the case of a transfer by sale, lease or otherwise of the right of ownership or possession of a factory, the parties to such transfer shall immediately give notice thereof by registered or certified mail to the Board and forward to it a true copy of the deed attesting such transfer. Failure to fulfil such obligation shall constitute an infringement of this act and, as long as this has not been remedied, the transferor is held severally liable with the transferee for any sum owing by the latter, since the transfer, to the producers who are his creditors.
