I really can't see how it can be OK as it stands. It doesn't describe
the actual situation.
If the startup language needs to be there, then it should be framed
with something like "initially, at the first set of board elections in
[year]:"
And then there should be a new paragraph "Thereafter: ..." which
explains how everything is done.
Would you like me to suggest actual wording ?
Ian.
