A proxy-holder (‘P’) must not vote in favour of any resolution which would directly or indirectly place P, or any associate of P’s, in a position to receive any remuneration out of the insolvent estate or the asset pool, unless the proxy specifically directs P to vote in that way.

Where P has authenticated the proxy as being authorised to do so by P’s principal and the proxy specifically directs P to vote in the way mentioned in paragraph (1), P must nevertheless not vote in that way unless P produces to the chair of the meeting written authorisation from P’s principal sufficient to show that P was entitled so to authenticate the proxy.

This rule applies also to any person acting as chair of a meeting and using proxies in that capacity under rule 89 and in its application to the chair, P is deemed an associate of that person.
