Marie was appointed as a Director of Best Dressed Ltd to fill a casual vacancy until the next Annual General Meeting (AGM), at which Marie was not re-elected by the shareholders. Best Dressed Ltds constitution provided that a director who was not re-elected at the AGM ceased to be a director of the company. Marie, however, continues to attend board meetings, provides specialist advice during these meetings based on her vast experience as a fashion designer, votes on resolutions with other directors and generally participates in the management of the company.

c.

Yes, Marie is an alternate director under the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)
