Subject as follows, an owner of goods under a hire-purchase or chattel leasing agreement, or a seller of goods under a conditional sale agreement, is entitled to vote in respect of the amount of the debt due and payable to the owner by the energy supply company on the date that the energy supply company entered energy supply company administration.

In calculating the amount of any debt for this purpose, no account shall be taken of any amount attributable to the exercise of any right under the relevant agreement, so far as the right has become exercisable solely by virtue of the making of an energy supply company administration application or any matter arising as a consequence, or of the energy supply company entering energy supply company administration.
