payment may prove for a proportionate part thereof up to the date of the winding-up order or resolution as if the rent or payment grew due from day to day:

Provided that where the liquidator remains in occupation of premises demised to a company which is being wound up, nothing herein contained shall prejudice or affect the right of the landlord of such premises to claim payment by the company, or the liquidator, of rent during the period of the company's or the liquidator's occupation.

88. On any debt or sum certain, payable at a certain time or otherwise, whereon interest is not reserved or agreed for, and which is overdue at the date of the commencement of the winding up, the creditor may prove for interest at a rate not exceeding 8 per cent per annum to that date from the time when the debt or sum was payable, if the debt or sum is payable by virtue of written instrument at a certain time, and if payable otherwise, then from the time when a demand in writing has been made, giving notice that interest will be claimed from the date of the demand until the time of payment.

89. A creditor may prove for a debt not payable at the date of the winding-up order or resolution, as if it were payable presently, and may receive dividends equally with the other creditors, deducting only thereout a rebate of interest at the rate of 8 per cent per annum computed from the declaration of a dividend to the time when the debt would have become payable according to the terms on which it was contracted.

90. In any case in which it appears that there are numerous claims for wages by workmen and others employed by the company, it shall be sufficient if one proof for all such claims is made either by a foreman or by some other person on behalf of all such creditors. Such proof shall have annexed thereto as forming part thereof, a schedule setting forth the names of the workmen and others, and the amounts severally due to them. Any proof made in compliance with this rule shall have the same effect as if separate proofs had been made by each of the said workmen and others.

91. Where a creditor seeks to prove in respect of a bill of exchange, promissory note, or other negotiable instrument or security on which the company is liable, such bill of exchange, note, instrument, or security must, subject to any special order of the court made to the contrary, be produced to the Official Receiver, chairman of a meeting or liquidator, as the case may be, and be marked by him before the proof can be admitted either for voting or for any purpose.

92. Where a liquidator is appointed in a winding up by the court, all proofs of debts that have been received by the Official Receiver shall be handed over to the liquidator, but the Official Receiver shall first make a list of such proofs, and take a receipt thereon from the liquidator for such proofs.
