4. Once the problems with JV Investor become apparent, AMGL's advisers prepare a draft notice to be sent to the ASX in compliance with AMGL's continuous disclosure obligations under ASX Listing Rule 3.1. The notice states that disappointing results from the JV Investor project are not expected to impact on AMGL's financial performance for the relevant year. In fact, this is not correct, and this would have been apparent from a careful reading of the monthly management accounts and projections. The directors of AMGL say that they never saw the draft notice and if they had seen it, they would not have approved it. However, the board minutes suggest that the directors saw and approved the notice. It is sent to the ASX immediately after the board meeting. The directors do nothing to correct the notice once it is released. Have the directors (or any of them) breached their duty of care
