FUNCTIONS OF ADMINISTRATOR

Charged property: non-floating charge

C172

1

The High Court may by order enable the administrator of a company to dispose of property which is subject to a security (other than a floating charge) as if it were not subject to the security.

2

An order under sub-paragraph (1) may be made only—

a

on the application of the administrator, and

b

where the Court thinks that disposal of the property would be likely to promote the purpose of administration in respect of the company.

3

An order under this paragraph is subject to the condition that there be applied towards discharging the sums secured by the security—

a

the net proceeds of disposal of the property, and

b

any additional money required to be added to the net proceeds so as to produce the amount determined by the Court as the net amount which would be realised on a sale of the property at market value.

4

If an order under this paragraph relates to more than one security, application of money under sub-paragraph (3) shall be in the order of the priorities of the securities.

5

An administrator who makes a successful application for an order under this paragraph shall send a copy of the order to the registrar before the end of the period of 14 days starting with the date of the order.

6

An administrator commits an offence if he fails to comply with sub-paragraph (5) without reasonable excuse.
