PRESS RELEASE
The Liquidators of EXFTX Limited (formerly Feltex Carpets Limited) announce that they have entered into a full and final settlement of their claims against the company's former directors.
The Liquidators were appointed in December 2006 and issued proceedings against the directors in 2009. In 2010 the District Court found, after a 15 day trial concerning related issues, that the "overwhelming evidence" was that the directors had conducted themselves at all times with "unimpeachable integrity."
The District Court's findings naturally caused the Liquidators to reevaluate their claim, which was due to be heard in a trial starting next week in the Auckland High Court. The Liquidators and the directors have today reached a settlement the terms of which, as is usual in such matters, are confidential.
The Liquidators acknowledge that the settlement is entered into without any admission of liability by the directors. This is reflected in what is a modest and pragmatic settlement reached on a costs saving basis.
