(i) meets the requirements of section 1224F; and

(ii) has consented in writing to being chosen as the new corporate director of the CCIV.

(3) If the members choose the nominated company to be the new corporate director, as soon as practicable and in any event within 2 business days after the day of the meeting, the current corporate director must lodge a notice with ASIC asking it to alter the record of the CCIV’s registration to name the nominated company as the corporate director of the CCIV.

(4) If:

(a) the members choose the nominated company to be the new corporate director; and
