Paragraph 18C F1
If a director of a public benefit corporation has in any way a direct or indirect interest in a proposed transaction or arrangement with the corporation, the director must declare the nature and extent of that interest to the other directors.
If a declaration under this paragraph proves to be, or becomes, inaccurate or incomplete, a further declaration must be made.
Any declaration required by this paragraph must be made before the corporation enters into the transaction or arrangement.
This paragraph does not require a declaration of an interest of which the director is not aware or where the director is not aware of the transaction or arrangement in question.
A director need not declare an interest—
if it cannot reasonably be regarded as likely to give rise to a conflict of interest;
if, or to the extent that, the directors are already aware of it;
if, or to the extent that, it concerns terms of the director's appointment that have been or are to be considered—
by a meeting of the board of directors, or
by a committee of the directors appointed for the purpose under the constitution.
