Article 72 Secured creditors

(1)

The following applies where a creditor re-values the creditor's security at a time when a dividend has been declared.

(2)

If the revaluation results in a reduction of the creditor's unsecured claim ranking for dividend, the creditor must as soon as reasonably practicable repay to the energy administrator, for the credit of the energy supply company administration, any amount received by the creditor as dividend in excess of that to which the creditor would be entitled having regard to the revaluation of the security.

(3)

If the revaluation results in an increase of the creditor's unsecured claim, the creditor is entitled to receive from the energy administrator, out of any money for the time being available for the payment of a further dividend, before any such further dividend is paid, any dividend or dividends which the creditor has failed to receive, having regard to the revaluation of the security. However, the creditor is not entitled to disturb any dividend declared (whether or not distributed) before the date of the revaluation.
