Received a notice that a customer on one of my clients is to appoint a liquidator and need to provide them with proof of debt (which is ok, can do). They have also sent a form for my client to appoint a proxy holder along with voting instructions for that proxy holder.
My client acknowledges that he is very unlikely to get anything from this and so will certainly not be attending the meeting himself, but is also not aware of anyone he can send to the meeting. We do have the option to appoint the 'chairman of the meeting' and have been advised this will be a director of the company.
The notice given is
1) To have laid before it a statement as to the affairs of the company
2) The appointment of a liquidator
3) The appointment of a liquidation committee
It states Resolutions may be proposed to set the basis of the Liquidators remuneration and to confirm the pre appointment costs.
Any suggestions for voting instructions/resolutions would be very welcome.
