a. acting as a director of another company that is known by a name which is either the same as a name used by the company in insolvent liquidation in the 12 months before it entered liquidation or is so similar as to suggest an association with that company;

Notice may be given where the persons giving the notice are already directors of a company which proposes to adopt a prohibited name.
