Whyte's floating charge over ibrox and Murray park

From what I could 'understand' from reading up on debenture documents, the floating charge protects Whyte's investment/loan - which he has convinced Companies House that he has invested or loaned the club £X. It looked to me like it ensured he would have to be paid off, before parting with his shares.

No. Tried explaining this to Ray earlier but he's a moron. The chargeholder will have priority on the proceeds of sale to the extent they're owed anything.

http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1986/45/schedule/B1

Charged property: floating charge

70(1)The administrator of a company may dispose of or take action relating to property which is subject to a floating charge as if it were not subject to the charge.

(2)Where property is disposed of in reliance on sub-paragraph (1) the holder of the floating charge shall have the same priority in respect of acquired property as he had in respect of the property disposed of.

(3)In sub-paragraph (2) “acquired property” means property of the company which directly or indirectly represents the property disposed of.

so if ticketus are indeed shafted and he's in to them for 24 million or whatever he's got first shot at the procceds of the sale?

The proceeds of the sale to newco will comprise the creditor pot. Floating charge holders rank ahead of unsecured creditors, so technically Whyte ranks ahead of Ticketus and HMRC. But he'll only get what he's owed by The Rangers Football Club plc. If he hasn't loaned the company any money then he won't be owed anything and the creditor pot will be shared amongst the unsecured creditors.

He'd get anything that was left after paying off creditors - but there won't be anything.

We can't owe Whyte and Ticketus the same money.

Some seem to believe we do.

I sense another TBK manipulation onslaught.

And even if we owed Whyte money, he couldn't stop the sale of Rangers' assets in his capacity as security-holder.

I have been sitting here Pulling my Hair out about this .Ticketus gave Whyte Money. He gave 18 Mil to LBG, and fucked off with the rest .He surely cant be due anything through any sale of Rangers .

He also made off with the PAYE 9 Mil . And it must be Ticketus who have more say than any in this Sale.

would this stop them being sold to a newco without his permission?

Mmmm depends on their structure so I would say yes but I suspect that is something that would and should be challenged in court. (it would all depend on his validity to take such a charge as that implies he lent us cash ) note that this has nothing to do with his shareholding other than the validity to provide the charge to himself ( I.e. I have no fking idea without details ) :lol:

A debenture document must be filed at the same time you - as a director - lend your company money. In Whyte's case, this document was filed on March 21st. Of course, we were already in administration at this stage, which leaves me really confused as to how this document was filed and money loaned?

What document are you talking about (the 21st March one)? Is this one granted by Wavetower (whatever it's called now) in favour of Liberty Capital?

In Scotland a floating charge (or other security document) doesn't need to be filed at the same time the loan is made. I could loan your company money today and then we could agree that your company secure it with a floating charge next year. The loan would be unsecured until the security was signed and registered though.
