(c) Notice or other communication to a domestic corporation or to a foreign corporation registered to do business in this state may be delivered to the corporation’s registered agent at its registered office or to the secretary at the corporation’s principal office shown in its most recent annual report or, in the case of a foreign corporation that has not yet delivered an annual report, in its foreign registration statement.
(d) A notice or other communications may be delivered by electronic transmission if consented to by the recipient or if authorized by subsection (j) of this section.
(e) Any consent under subsection (d) of this section may be revoked by the person who consented by written or electronic notice to the person to whom the consent was delivered. Any such consent is deemed revoked if the corporation is unable to deliver two (2) consecutive electronic transmissions given by the corporation in accordance with such consent, and such inability becomes known to the secretary or an assistant secretary or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice or other communications; provided, however, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.

(2) It is in a form capable of being processed by that system.
(g) Receipt of an electronic acknowledgment from an information processing system described in subsection (f)(1) of this section establishes that an electronic transmission was received but, by itself, does not establish that the content sent corresponds to the content received.
(h) An electronic transmission is received under this section even if no person is aware of its receipt.

(j) A notice or other communication may be in the form of an electronic transmission that cannot be directly reproduced in paper form by the recipient through an automated process used in conventional commercial practice only if the electronic transmission is otherwise retrievable in perceivable form, and the sender and the recipient have consented in writing to the use of such form of electronic transmission.
(k) If this chapter prescribes requirements for notices or other communications in particular circumstances, those requirements govern. If articles of incorporation or bylaws prescribe requirements for notices or other communications, not inconsistent with this section or other provisions of this chapter, those requirements govern. The articles of incorporation or bylaws may authorize or require delivery of notices of meetings of directors by electronic transmission.
