PART 7Distributions to creditors

CHAPTER 3Quantification of claims

Redemption by administrator

139.—(1) The administrator may at any time give notice to a creditor whose debt is secured that it is proposed, at the expiration of twenty-eight days from the date of the notice, to redeem the security at the value put upon it in the creditor’s proof.

(2) The creditor then has twenty-one days (or such longer period as the administrator may allow) in which, if the creditor so wishes, to exercise their right to revalue their security (with the permission of the court, where rule 137 applies). If the creditor re-values their security, the administrator may only redeem at the new value.

(3) If the administrator redeems the security, the cost of transferring it is payable out of the assets of the institution.

(4) A secured creditor may at any time, by a notice in writing, call on the administrator to elect whether the administrator will or will not exercise their power to redeem the security at the value then placed on it, and the administrator then has three months in which to exercise the power or determine not to exercise it.
