Peter owns shares in Smallville Wanderers Ltd. He has been invited to an extraordinary general meeting of the company and given notice of a resolution to remove John, one of the directors, from office. There is evidence that John was wined and dined by a sales representative of Fleetfoot Sports Shoes Ltd just before a meeting of the board voted by a majority to place a large order with Fleetfoot and made it their preferred supplier. John is also a shareholder in Fleetfoot but did not tell his fellow directors about this prior to the vote. Fleetfoot has now gone into liquidation before fulfilling and order worth AU$5,000, which Smallville are very unlikely to recover. Explain whether John has broken any of his duties a director of Smallville and whether he has any defenses.
