Old Type CVA - No Moratorium - Nominees duties

A "nominee" is the person named in the proposal who is intended to ultimately supervise the implementation of the proposal.

The "nominee" has to be a licenced insolvency practitioner (in an old type CVA)

The "nominee" becomes the "supervisor" when the creditors approve the CVA proposal.

The nominee's duties in an old type CVA are not as great as his duties in a new CVA.

In an old type CVA those duties include:

  • reporting to the court as to whether or not the nominee believes a creditors meeting ought to be called. In other words the nominee has to report whether or not, in his opnion, the proposed CVA has a good chance of sucess and also may be acceptable to the creditors.
  • after reporting to the court the nominee has to:
    • send out the notifications of the meetings to the shareholders and creditors.
    • attend at the meeting and act as chairman of the meeting.
    • report the result of the meeting to the court, creditors etc.

Generally speaking, the nominee, in an old type CVA does not have the responsibility of monitoring the progress of the company in the period up to the day of the creditor's meeting. The Nominees' role is, therefore, "hands off" and the directors continue in full power up to the day of the creditors meeting.
