Whole provisions yet to be inserted into this Instrument (including any effects on those provisions):
4.182.—(1) In the calculation and distribution of a dividend the liquidator shall make provision—
(a)for any debts which appear to him to be due to persons who, by reason of the distance of their place of residence, may not have had sufficient time to tender and establish their proofs,
(b)for any debts which are the subject of claims which have not yet been determined, and
(c)for disputed proofs and claims.
(2) A creditor who has not proved his debt before the declaration of any dividend is not entitled to disturb, by reason that he has not participated in it, the distribution of that dividend or any other dividend declared before his debt was proved, but—
(a)when he has proved that debt he is entitled to be paid, out of any money for the time being available for the payment of any further dividend, any dividend or dividends which he has failed to receive, and
(b)any dividend or dividends payable under sub-paragraph (a) shall be paid before that money is applied to the payment of any such further dividend.
(3) No action lies against the liquidator for a dividend; but if he refuses to pay a dividend the court may, if it thinks fit, order him to pay it and also to pay, out of his own money—
(a)interest on the dividend, at the rate for the time being specified in section 17 of the Judgments Act 1838, from the time when it was withheld, and
