WARDLEWORTH’S BOOKSHOPS LIMITED

Notice is hereby given pursuant to Rule 11.2 of the Insolvency Rules 1986 (as amended), that I, Stephen Mark Quinn, the Joint Liquidator of the above-named, intend paying a final dividend to the preferential and unsecured Creditors within 4 months of the last date of proving specified below. Creditors who have not already proved are required, on or before 12 March 2002, the last day for proving to submit their proof of debt to me at Baker Tilly, Brazennose House, Lincoln Square, Manchester M2 5BL and, if so requested by me, to provide such further details or produce such documentary or other evidence as may appear to be necessary. A Creditor who has not proved his debt before the date specified above is not entitled to disturb, by reason that he has not participated in it, the dividend so declared. S M Quinn, Joint Liquidator 5 February 2002.
