Notice is hereby given, pursuant to Rule 15.6 of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016 that a physical meeting of the creditors of the Company is convened, for the purposes of the nomination of a Liquidator under section 100 of the Insolvency Act 1986. The Convener is Ashley Birch, the Chair of the Board of Directors of the Company. As the prescribed proportion of creditors objected to the proposed decision by deemed consent, in accordance with Rule 6.14(4) of the Insolvency (England & Wales) Rules 2016 a meeting must be held and the decision cannot be treated as having been made and the deemed consent procedure is superseded. It is proposed that the Special Resolution to wind-up the Company voluntarily shall be passed by Written Resolutions of eligible Members of the Company on the date of the meeting or any adjournment thereof. The meeting will be held at Griffin and King Limited, 26-28 Goodall Street, Walsall, WS1 1QL on 13 March 2024 at 3.00 pm. The meeting may be suspended or adjourned by the Chair of the meeting (and must be if it resolved at the meeting). The Convener has discretion to permit remote attendance (meaning attending and being able to participate in the meeting without being in the place where it is being held) if such a request to do so is received in advance of the meeting.
Timothy Frank Corfield (contact details below) is a person qualified to act as an Insolvency Practitioner in relation to the Company who, during the period before the meeting date, will furnish creditors free of charge with such information concerning the Company’s affairs as they may reasonably require.
Any creditor entitled to attend and vote at the meeting is entitled to do so either in person or by proxy. Creditors wishing to vote at the meeting must (unless they are individual creditors attending in person) lodge their proxy with the Convener (using the Insolvency Practitioner contact details below) before they may be used at the meeting.
Unless there are exceptional circumstances, a creditor will not be entitled to vote unless his written statement of claim, ('proof'), which clearly sets out the name and address of the creditor and the amount claimed, has been lodged and admitted for voting purposes. Proofs must be lodged with the Convener (using the Insolvency Practitioner contact details below) by 4.00pm the business day before the meeting. Unless they surrender their security, secured creditors must give particulars of their security, the date when it was given and the estimated value at which it is assessed if they wish to vote at the physical meeting.
A copy of the Director’s Report & Statement of Affairs has already been provided to creditors. If a Liquidation Committee is not formed, the resolutions to be taken at the meeting of creditors may include the resolution specifying the terms on which the Liquidator is to be remunerated, and the meeting may receive information about, or be called upon to approve, the costs of preparing the Statement of Affairs, the deemed consent procedure and of convening the physical meeting.
