RE: WTG Board Gravy Train26 Nov 2018 15:44
It's amazing what pops up on the internet when you spend a couple of minutes googling:-
- Personal vendettas: that's a silly comment...it was Terry who sued WTG so the idea that you suggest it was wasteful to defend the claim is laughable given his history.
- Neutral Citation Number: [2018] EWHC 3082 (Comm)
Case No: CL-2016-000566

Claimants
-and- WATCHSTONE LIMITED
Defendant
-Salaries:- what was Terry's basic salary? I'd guess at close to £1m plus 'bonuses' ....plus his lavish lifestyle including 1st Class travel even for his family!
- Dying on the vine:- oh dear me! Was this a Freudian slip? I wonder how the 2018 Terry Champagne vintage will be...perhaps he'll toast his former investors with a bottle. Perhaps sitting next to that swimming pool they paid for?
RNS:- Would it not be wasteful to pay for an RNS on public information when we can all depend on Good Old Rob to share the info for us? (Rolly-eyed thingy).
......btw: you neglected to mention the case against Terry which resulted in him repaying £800k (this was a personal expenses claim!....)
Settlements with former management and former vendors
In January and March 2018, the Company agreed settlements with former management. The 31 December 2016 Financial Statements referred to an investigation by the Group into expense claims submitted by Mr Robert Terry and payments made to him by the Group during his period of employment and related litigation. In January 2018, Mr Terry (together with his wife and former employee, Mrs Louise Terry) and Watchstone settled certain respective claims arising out of Mr Terry’s contract of employment with Watchstone, the settlement agreement entered into when Mr Terry departed Watchstone in November 2014 (“November 2014 Settlement”) and a separate agreement relating to works done at Quob Park (the former head office of the Group) (“Terry Settlement”). Under the terms of the Terry Settlement, Mr Terry waived his right to receive £280,000 under the November 2014 Settlement and Mr and Mrs Terry paid Watchstone £800,000 (in cash). These items, arising after the balance sheet date, have not been included in the results of the Group in the year ended 31 December 2017.
