1
A creditor, in order to obtain an adjudication as to that creditor’s entitlement—
a
to vote at any meeting of the creditors, or of the creditors and clients, in the special administration; or
b
to a dividend (so far as funds are available) out of the assets of the investment bank in respect of any accounting period,
shall submit their claim to the administrator at or before the meeting or, as the case may be, not later than 8 weeks before the end of the accounting period.
2
A creditor shall submit their claim by producing to the administrator—
a
a statement of claim in accordance with rule 126; and
b
an account or voucher (according to the nature of the debt claimed) which constitutes prima facie evidence of the debt,
but the administrator may dispense with any requirement of this paragraph in respect of any debt or any class of debt.
3
A claim submitted by a creditor, which has been accepted in whole or in part by the administrator for the purpose of drawing a dividend in respect of any accounting period, shall be deemed to have been resubmitted for the purpose of obtaining an adjudication as to that creditor’s entitlement (so far as funds are available) to a dividend in respect of an accounting period or, as the case may be, any subsequent accounting period.
4
A creditor, who has submitted a claim, may at any time submit a further claim specifying a different amount for their claim, provided that a secured creditor shall not be entitled to produce a further claim specifying a different value for the security at any time after the administrator has required the creditor to discharge, or convey or assign, the security.
5
In this rule, and in rule 127 including the provisions of the 1985 Act applied by that rule, any reference to the administrator includes a reference to the chair of the meeting.
