Correct Answer: Floating charge 


Solution : Answer = Floating charge 

In the event of a company winding up, a floating charge holder has a preference over unsecured creditors for settling claims. A floating charge is a security interest over a fluctuating pool of assets, allowing the company to continue operating and disposing of assets until the charge crystallizes, typically upon insolvency.
Hence, the correct option is 2.
