REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

1    In matter number NSD 892 of 2015, I note that this morning the respondent sought leave pursuant to s 459S of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). After hearing from Mr Johnson on behalf of the respondent, that leave was refused. Mr Furlan for the applicant has read affidavits in support of the orders sought in the originating process filed 28 July 2015. Having considered those affidavits, I propose to make the orders sought. I make the following orders:

(1)    an order pursuant to s 459A of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) that the respondent company, Butmall Pty Limited ACN 060 658 639, be wound up.

(2)    Mr James White of BDO, Level 11, 1 Margaret Street, Sydney NSW 2000 and Mr Luke Targett, Level 14, 140 William Street, Melbourne, Victoria 3000 be appointed as joint and several liquidators of the respondent, Butmall Pty Limited.

(3)    The applicant’s costs (including reserved costs, if any) be taxed and reimbursed out of the property of the respondent in accordance with section 466(2) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).

I certify that the preceding one (1) numbered paragraph is a true copy of the Reasons for Judgment herein of the Honourable Justice Markovic.
