B) As a major shareholder, she would be elected as a director every year even without such a provision in the shareholders' agreement.
C) She would be able to ask the court for relief from oppression if she disliked a decision passed by the majority of the directors.
D) As a shareholder, she is free to compete with the company even if she is a director as well.
