No...it is not necessary for the applicant to subscribe for the shares of the Company in order to be appointed as Director of that Company.
In case the Articles are silent as to who will be the First Directors of the Company,Subscribers to the MOA of the Company are deemed to be the first Directors of the Company who shall hold the office till the date of the first AGM of the Company.
So, if the AOA of ur Company mentions the name of first Directors, no need to subscribe to the shares of the Company to be appointed as Director of the Company.
