Notice to Creditors of an Insolvent Company of the Re-Use of a

Prohibited name

Rule 22.4 of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016

This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of Rule 22.4 of

the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016 ("IR 2016") and Section 216

of the Insolvency Act 1986 ("the Act"). References in this notice to rules

and sections are, unless expressly provided otherwise, respectively

references to rules of the IR 2016 and to sections of the Act.

1. On 28 March 2019, Thrillpic Media Limited (which traded as Thrillpic.com)

whose registered office was situated at Marland House 13 Huddersfield Road

Barnsley South Yorkshire S70 2LW ("the Company") entered creditors'

voluntary liquidation.

2. I, John Edward Farnham of Cottage Farm Hinckley Road Ibstock LE67 6PA

was a director of the Company during the twelve months ending with the

date it entered liquidation.

3. I give notice that it is my intention to act in all or any one or more 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 insolvent company under the following name or parts of names:

360PIC Limited, 360PIC, Thrillpic Media, Thrill Pic Media, thrillpic.com, @thrillpic.

or any name, trading style, website address, Twitter, Instagram or other

social media identity, containing the words/letters "THRILLPIC", "THRILL", "PIC"

or "MEDIA" (whether in upper or lower case or any combination thereof).

4. 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.

5. A breach of the prohibition created by Section 216 of the Act is a

criminal offence.

6. Section 216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986 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 & 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 in insolvent liquidation

in the twelve 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.

7. This notice is given under Rule 22.4 of the Insolvency (England & Wales)

Rules 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.

9. The purpose of giving this notice is to permit the directors to act

in these circumstances where the company enters (or has entered) insolvent

liquidation without the directors 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 persons giving the notice are already directors

of a company which proposes to adopt a prohibited name.
