(a)so as to inhibit him from exercising those functions for the purpose of distributing any property held by the company to the company’s creditors; or
(b)so as to prevent the payment out of any property of expenses (including the remuneration of the liquidator or any provisional liquidator) properly incurred in the winding up in respect of the property.

(6)In this section—
“company” means any company which may be wound up under the Insolvency Act 1986; and

(a)where no order for the winding up of the company has been made, the time of the passing of the resolution for voluntary winding up;
