It's an asset of the company, so if the administrators find a buyer for the company, it will stay with the 'new' company. If they can't find a buyer to take on the failed company, then the assets will be sold off and any surplus revenue (after the administrators have dragged it out for as long as possible to build up their fees) gets divided throughout the creditors. Secured creditors, ie Inland Revenue / banks etc, get all their money first (where possible), then trade creditors if there's anything over.
