This is so true that the liable company (in debt, for example, with the tax authorities as the person liable for the surcharge and the tax penalty owed) may bring an action for contribution against its directors after settling the debt.

Invalidity, due to shareholder oppression, of the resolution to file a director liability (to company) claim
The Supreme Court (Judgment no. 824/2026, dated 29 May) affirmed the declaration of invalidity of a company resolution to file a director liability (to company) claim, finding that it had been abusively imposed by the majority insofar as not responding to a reasonable need of the company and having been passed by the majority in its own interest and to the unjustified detriment of the minority.
