On the application of any person interested in an agreement to which paragraph (1) applies, a county court may make such order as it thinks just for modifying the agreement to take account of the effect of paragraph (1).

given notice of the application; and
b
afforded an opportunity to make representations to the court.

Paragraph (4) applies subject to any county court rules providing for notice to be dispensed with.
