RULE 22.4 OF THE INSOLVENCY RULES 2016

NOTICE TO THE CREDITORS OF AN INSOLVENT COMPANY OF THE RE-USE OF A PROHIBITED NAME

BEULAH LONDON LIMITED

07388041(the “Company”)

Registered office: 77 Elizabeth Street, London, SW1W 9PJ

On 9 July 2020, the Company entered liquidation.

We, Lavinia Charlotte Marika Richards of 131a Hurlingham Road, London SW6 3NH and Lady Natasha Rose Eleanor Finch 25 Newton Avenue, London W3 8AT (the “Directors”) hereby give notice to the creditors of the Company of the re-use of a prohibited name pursuant to section 216 Insolvency Act 1986 (the “Act”).

The Directors were directors of the Company during the 12 months prior to the date the Company entered liquidation.

We give notice that we intend to act in all or any of the ways specified in section 216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986 in connection with or for the purposes of, the carrying on of the whole or substantially the whole of the business of the insolvent Company under the names:

Lado Sarai Limited trading as Beulah London; or

Beulah London Limited.

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 Insolvency Act 1986. (This includes the exceptions in Part 22 of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 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;

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 kind of name mentioned in (a) above.

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

The purpose of giving this notice is to permit the director to act in these circumstances where the company has entered insolvent liquidation without the director committing a criminal offence and in the case of 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.

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