A STAR NAILS LTD

09041491

Registered office: 466 St Albans Road, Watford, WD24 6QU

1. On 10 December 2018, A Star Nails Ltd, Company Registration Number: 09041491, whose registered office address is 466 St Albans Road, Watford, WD24 6QU (the Company) will enter into insolvent liquidation.

2. I, Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao of 466 St Albans Road, Watford, WD24 6QU, am a director of the Company.

3. Section 216(3) of the Act restricts when directors of a company in insolvent liquidation may be involved in the management of a company with the same or similar name.

4. I give notice that it is my intention to act in all or any of the ways in Section 216(3) of the Act in connection with, or for the purpose of, the carrying on of the whole or substantially the whole of the business of the Company under the following name:

A STAR NAILS (WATFORD) LIMITED T/A A STAR NAILS

5. I would not otherwise be permitted to act in all or any of the ways specified in Section 216(3) of the Act in connection with, or for the purposes of, the carrying on of the whole or substantially the whole of the business of the Company under the prohibited name without leave of the court or the application of an exception created by the IR 2016.

6. A breach of the prohibition created by Section 216 of the Act is a criminal offence.

7. Section 216(3) of the Act lists the activities that a director of a company that has gone into insolvent liquidation may not undertake unless the court gives permission or there is an exception in the Insolvency Rules made under the Act. (This includes the exceptions in Part 22 of the IR 2016). These activities are:-

(a) acting as a director of another company that is known by a name which is either the same as a name used by the company in insolvent liquidation in the 12 months before it entered liquidation or is so similar as to suggest an association with that company;

(b) directly or indirectly being concerned or taking part in the promotion, formation or management of any such company; or

(c) directly or indirectly being concerned in the carrying on of a business otherwise than through a company under a name of the kind mentioned in (a) above.

This notice is given under Rule 22.4 of IR 2016 where the business of a company which is in, or may go into, insolvent liquidation is, or is to be, carried on otherwise than by the company in liquidation with the involvement of a director of that company and under the same or a similar name to that of that company.

The purpose of the giving of this notice is to permit the director to act in these circumstances where the company enters (or has entered) insolvent liquidation without the director committing a criminal offence and in the case of the carrying on of the business through another company, being personally liable for that company’s debts.

Notice may be given where the person giving the notice is already the director of a company which proposes to adopt a prohibited name.
