Notice is being given, pursuant to rule 12.4(4)(a) of The Insolvency (Scotland) (Receivership and Winding Up) Rules 2018 (the “Rules”), prior to the Company entering insolvent liquidation as the business (or substantially the whole of the business) has been acquired by another company under arrangements made by an office-holder acting in relation to the Company as administrator. The Company entered administration on 26 June 2026. I, John Thomas Meldrum Martin, c/o 59 Napier Road, Cumbernauld, Glasgow, Scotland, G68 0EF, was a director of the Company on the day it entered administration. I give notice that I am acting and intend to continue to act in all or any of the ways specified in section 216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986 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 following name(s): Kelvin KBB Limited, Kelvin KBB Ltd, Kelvin KBB, Kelvin, kelvin, Kelvin Bedroom Systems Limited, Kelvin Kitchens, Kelvin Wardrobes, Kelvin Bedrooms Ltd, Kelvin Direct, Kelvin at Home, Kelvin KBB Holdings Ltd that could, if the Company were to go into insolvent liquidation, be a breach of s.216 of the Insolvency Act 1986. I would not otherwise be permitted to undertake the activities as set out hereabove without the leave of the court or the application of an exception created by the Rules made under the Insolvency Act 1986, including the application of the exception created by rule 12.4 of the Rules made under the Insolvency Act 1986. I note that a breach of the prohibition created by section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 is a criminal offence. 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 12 of the Insolvency (Scotland) (Receivership and Winding Up) Rules 2018.) 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 12 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. This notice is given under rule 12.4 of the Insolvency (Scotland) (Receivership and Winding Up) Rules 2018 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. The purpose of giving this notice is to permit the director to act in these circumstances where the company enters (or has entered) insolvent liquidation without the director 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 person giving the notice is already the director of a company which proposes to adopt a prohibited name.
