The Trustee of the Section hereby gives notice pursuant to Section 27 of the Trustee Act 1925 (as amended) that the Section is in the process of being wound up and that its assets will be distributed.

The trustee believes that it has the names and contact details of everyone who has a right to benefits under the Section and that those rights have been settled. However, the Trustee requests that any person (whether member, creditor or other) who believes they have an entitlement to benefits under the Section or a claim against the Section (whether as a member, widow, widower or other dependant of a member or otherwise) is required to submit details in writing of their claim or interest.

If you think you are still entitled to benefits under the Section, but have not been contacted by the Plan Trustee within the last two years, and do not have a pension already in payment from the Section, please contact us using the address listed below. If you have been contacted by the Trustee or have received correspondence from the Trustee in the last two years, or are currently in receipt of a pension from the Section, there is no need to respond to this notice.

Section members may have been employees of the following companies:

Essentra PLC

Essentra International Limited

If you are one of the persons noted above, please write to:

Alternatively, if you need clarification about the information required, please call 0121 828 0222.

Your claim must arrive on or before 2 months from the date of this notice, at which time this notice shall expire. The Trustee shall have regard to the claims and interests of which it has prior notice. The Section will then be wound up and its assets distributed. Claims arriving more than 2 months after the date of this notice will not be accepted and the Trustee shall not be liable to any person whose claim has not been notified to it by the expiry date of this notice.

For and on behalf of the Trustee of the Essentra Pension Plan (Senior Section)
