General Meeting and Creditors' Meeting - Proposed appointment of Joint Liquidators
Further to the Company's announcement on 31 July 2024, East Imperial, the former global purveyor of super-premium beverages, announces that the Board of Directors met on 9 August 2024 and concluded that the necessary steps be taken to place the Company into creditors' voluntary liquidation.
Accordingly, it was resolved, inter alia, that:
1. a general meeting of shareholders of the Company be convened to be held on 28 August 2024 at 9.00AM to consider and, if thought fit, pass as an ordinary resolution that the Company be wound-up voluntarily, and pass as a special resolution that David Rubin and Asher Miller of Begbies Traynor (London) LLP be appointed as joint liquidators; and
2. a meeting of creditors be convened to be held on 28 August at 9.30 AM where decisions will be sought from the creditors to decide on the nomination of the joint liquidators and the basis of their remuneration, and whether a liquidation committee be established.
Both meetings will be held virtually and formal notices of both meetings have been sent to each respective shareholder and creditor of the Company.
The results of these meetings will be announced on 28 August 2024.
