Their proofs will be required for the purpose of meetings to be convened for considering and voting on a compromise or arrangement under the Companies Act, the firm explained. Parties are requested to set out all known obligations the scheme companies have towards them including present, contingent, future, disputed or undisputed obligations.

“Holders of the notes, perpetual securities, and preference shares who do not file a proof will be deemed to have authorised the company to file a proof on their behalf based on the holdings reflected in the Central Depository (CDP) records,” Hyflux added.
