The said debtor has within three months before the presentation of this petition committed an act of bankruptcy as follows:-(give details of the specific acts of bankruptcy alleged) as your petitioner has been informed and believes. [Note 2] 4. Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 applies to the proceedings.

[Note 2]4. Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 applies to the proceedings. The centre of main interests of the said debtor is situated within the territory of a Member State of the European Union in which Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 applies (other than the State), namely at ....... in ......... because (state facts and grounds relied on) and the said debtor has an establishment within the State at ........ because (state facts and grounds relied on). [Note 2] [Note 3] 4. Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 does not apply to the proceedings because (state facts and grounds relied on), and the debtor is domiciled in the State (or specify which of the alternative requirements of Section 11(1)(d) of the Bankruptcy Act 1988 is fulfilled). [Note 4] 5. To your petitioner’s knowledge, no insolvency proceedings have been opened in respect of the said debtor in a Member State of the European Union to which Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 applies. 5.

The condition referred to in *[Article 3(4)(a)] *[Article 3(4)(b)] of Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 is met because (state facts and grounds relied on, e.g. main proceedings cannot be opened in respect of the debtor where the centre of the debtor’s main interests is situated, because of the conditions laid down by the law of that State, or the opening of territorial insolvency proceedings is requested by a creditor who has his/her domicile, habitual residence or registered office in the State or whose claim arises from the operation of that establishment). 7.

In the case of the petition of a person other than the liquidator in main proceedings (i.e. a person mentioned in Article 29(b) of the Insolvency Regulation) which concerns or involves the opening of secondary insolvency proceedings in the State pursuant to Article 27 of the Insolvency Regulation, paragraphs 1-3 above must be included.

I do not nor does any person on my behalf hold any mortgage, charge or lien on the deceased's estate or any part thereof as security for the debt or any part thereof (or your petitioner holds security for the payment of (or part of) the said sum, but he will give up such security for the benefit of the creditors of the deceased in the event of an order being made for the administration of the deceased's estate in bankruptcy or your petitioner holds security for the payment of (or part of) the said sum and he estimates the value of such security at the sum of € ........ or I am the Legal Personal Representative of the said deceased). 3.

The centre of main interests (determined in accordance with Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000) of the said deceased at the time of death was situated in the State because (state facts and grounds relied on). [Note 2] 6. (Where centre of main interests in another EU Member State) Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 applies to these proceedings. The centre of main interests (determined in accordance with Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000) of the said deceased at the time of death was situated within the territory of a Member State of the European Union in which Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 applies (other than the State), namely at ............ in ............. because (state facts and grounds relied on) and the said deceased had at that time an establishment within the State at ...... because (state facts and grounds relied on).

(Where territorial proceedings are sought and no main proceedings are open in another EU Member State) In your petitioner’s belief, the centre of main interests of the said deceased, at the time of death, was situated within the territory of a Member State other than the State, and main proceedings have not been opened in another Member State. The condition referred to in *[Article 3(4)(a)] *[Article 3(4)(b)] of the Insolvency Regulation is met because (state facts and grounds relied on, e.g. main proceedings cannot be opened in respect of the deceased where the centre of the deceased’s main interests was situated at the time of death, because of the conditions laid down by the law of that State, or the opening of territorial insolvency proceedings is requested by a creditor who has his domicile, habitual residence or registered office in the State or whose claim arises from the operation of that establishment).

Examiner Notes: [Note 1] In the case of the petition of a liquidator in main proceedings of the deceased debtor which concerns or involves the opening of secondary insolvency proceedings in the State pursuant to Article 27 of the Insolvency Regulation, paragraphs 1-3 above are not required to be included. In the case of the petition of a person other than the liquidator in main proceedings of a deceased debtor (i.e. a person mentioned in Article 29(b) of the Insolvency Regulation) which concerns or involves the opening of secondary insolvency proceedings in the State pursuant to Article 27 of the Insolvency Regulation, paragraphs 1-3 above must be included. In such cases only, the appropriate alternative in the prayer for relief referring to secondary proceedings or, as the case may be, territorial insolvency proceedings, should be included. Under Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000— the “centre of main interests” should correspond to the place where the debtor conducts the administration of his interests on a regular basis and is therefore ascertainable by third parties; “establishment” means any place of operations where the debtor carries out a non-transitory economic activity with human means and goods. [Note 2] One alternative version only of paragraph 6 must be included. [Note 3] Where this version of paragraph 6 is appropriate to the case, paragraphs 7 and 8 should be deleted and any remaining paragraphs renumbered. [Note 4] Where paragraph 7 is required, one alternative version only must be included. [Note 5] To be completed only if Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 applies and the deceased’s centre of main interests was situated in the State.
