| <b>Director's term of office</b>
| Director’s Director's term of office expires at the close of the next AGM after election or appointment.
| Bylaws may provide otherwise.
| Bylaws could set different terms of office, such as two-year terms or staggered terms. If your society uses a board policy to set terms for longer than one year, that provision will need to be added to bylaws.
