The Liquidation Pool will be applied by the Liquidators in discharging all current and future, actual and contingent liabilities of the Company. Any balance remaining in the Liquidation Pool after discharging such liabilities will, in due course, be distributed by the Liquidators to Shareholders on the Register on the Winding-up Date pro ratato their respective holdings of Ordinary Shares, provided that if any such amount payable to any Shareholder is less than £5.00, it may not be paid to Shareholders but instead may be paid to the Nominated Charity.
