[F1(1)The following provisions of Schedule B1 to the Insolvency Act 1986 (administration) do not apply in relation to a market charge—
(a)paragraph 43(2) and (3) (restriction on enforcement of security or repossession of goods) (including that provision as applied by paragraph 44 (interim moratorium)), and
(b)paragraphs 70, 71 and 72 (power of administrator to deal with charged or hire-purchase property).
(1A)Paragraph 41(2) of that Schedule (receiver to vacate office at request of administrator) does not apply to a receiver appointed under a market charge.]
(2)However, where a market charge falls to be enforced after [F2the occurrence of an event to which subsection (2A) applies], and there exists another charge over some or all of the same property ranking in priority to or pari passu with the market charge, [F3on the application of any person interested] the court may order that there shall be taken after enforcement of the market charge such steps as the court may direct for the purpose of ensuring that the chargee under the other charge is not prejudiced by the enforcement of the market charge.
[F4(2A)This subsection applies to—
(a)making an administration application under paragraph 12 of Schedule B1 to the Insolvency Act 1986,
(b)appointing an administrator under paragraph 14 or 22 of that Schedule (appointment by floating charge holder, company or directors),
(c)filing with the court a copy of notice of intention to appoint an administrator under either of those paragraphs.]
(3)The following provisions of the Insolvency Act 1986 (which relate to the powers of receivers) do not apply in relation to a market charge—
(a)section 43 (power of administrative receiver to dispose of charged property), and
(b)section 61 (power of receiver in Scotland to dispose of an interest in property).
(4)Sections 127 and 284 of the Insolvency Act 1986 (avoidance of property dispositions effected after commencement of winding up or presentation of bankruptcy petition), and section 32(8) of the M1Bankruptcy (Scotland) Act 1985 (effect of dealing with debtor relating to estate vested in permanent trustee), do not apply to a disposition of property as a result of which the property becomes subject to a market charge or any transaction pursuant to which that disposition is made.
(5)However, if a person (other than the chargee under the market charge) who is party to a disposition mentioned in subsection (4) has notice at the time of the disposition that a petition has been presented for the winding up or bankruptcy or sequestration of the estate of the party making the disposition, the value of any profit to him arising from the disposition is recoverable from him by the relevant office-holder unless the court directs otherwise.
(6)Any sum recoverable by virtue of subsection (5) ranks for priority, in the event of the insolvency of the person from whom it is due, immediately before preferential or, in Scotland, preferred debts.
(7)In a case falling within both subsection (4) above (as a disposition of property as a result of which the property becomes subject to a market charge) and section 164(3) (as the provision of margin in relation to a market contract), section 164(4) applies with respect to the recovery of the amount or value of the margin and subsection (5) above does not apply.
