Notice is hereby given under Rule 15.8 of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016, that a physical meeting of creditors is to be held in respect of the above named Company, as the prescribed proportion of creditors have requested that such a meeting be summoned.

The purpose of the meeting is to seek a decision from creditors as to the appointment of a liquidator and to agree their duties.

The meeting is to be held at Holiday Inn Express, Exeter M5 Jct 29, Guardian Road, Exeter, EX1 3PE on 30 March 2020 at 10.30 am.

As a physical meeting has been requested by creditors, the original deemed consent procedure is now superseded.

Creditors, including those with debts under ÂŁ1,000, must lodge a completed proof of debt no later than 4.00pm on the business day immediately prior to the meeting, failing which their vote will be disregarded.

A creditor who has previously opted out from receiving notices may nevertheless vote at the meeting if they have provided a completed proof of debt by 4.00 pm on the business day immediately prior to the meeting.

Proxies for use at the meeting must be delivered to the convener or chair, ahead of the meeting.

A creditor may be permitted to attend the meeting remotely if such a request is received in advance of the meeting but only at the convener's discretion.

Any creditor, who is excluded from the meeting or is adversely affected by an actual, apparent or claimed exclusion, may complain to the chair, where the complaint is raised during the course of the meeting or to the convenor, where the complaint is raised after the meeting in accordance with Insolvency Rule 15.38. Any such complaints must be lodged no later than 4.00 pm on the business day following the exclusion, or no later than 4.00 pm on the business day following notice of the exclusion having been received.

A decision of the convener or chair is subject to appeal to the court by a creditor or contributory in accordance with Insolvency Rule 15.35. An appeal under this rule may not be made later than 21 days after the decision date.

The meeting may be suspended or adjourned by the chair of the meeting and must be adjourned if it is so resolved by creditors.

Convener: Chris Parkman, Purnells, 5a Kernick Industrial Estate, Penryn, Cornwall, TR10 9EP
