Director appointments at company general meetings must be voted individually; bundled elections are void unless unanimously agreed beforehand. Section 162 requires that appointments of directors at a company general meeting be treated as individual matters unless a single-resolution motion to appoint multiple persons has first been agreed at the meeting with no votes cast against it; any resolution contravening this rule is void. Motions to approve or to nominate a person are treated as motions for that person's appointment and thus fall within the same individual-voting requirement and voidness consequence.
