Text

(a) After fixing a record date for a meeting, a
corporation shall prepare an alphabetical or numerical list of
the identities of all its shareholders who are entitled to
notice of a shareholders' meeting. The list shall be arranged
by voting group, and within each voting group by class or series
of shares, and show the number of shares held by each
shareholder. The list shall also show each shareholder's
physical mailing address, if the identity of a shareholder on
the list consists of the shareholder's name, and each
shareholder's authorized means of receipt for electronic
transmissions, if the identity of a shareholder on the list
consists of the shareholder's data address.
(b) The shareholders' list shall be available for
inspection by any shareholder, beginning two (2) business days
after notice of the meeting is given for which the list was
prepared and continuing through the meeting, at the
corporation's principal office or at a place identified in the
meeting notice in the city where the meeting will be held. A
shareholder, his agent, or attorney is entitled on written
demand to inspect and, subject to the requirements of W.S.
17-16-1602(c), to copy the list, during regular business hours
and at the shareholder's expense, during the period it is
available for inspection.
(c) The corporation shall make the shareholders' list
available at the meeting, and any shareholder, his agent, or
attorney is entitled to inspect the list at any time during the
meeting or any adjournment.
(d) If the corporation refuses to allow a shareholder, his
agent, or attorney to inspect the shareholders' list before or
at the meeting, or to copy the list as permitted by subsection
(b) of this section, the district court of the county where a
corporation's principal office or, if none in this state, its
registered office, is located, on application of the
shareholder, may summarily order the inspection or copying at
the corporation's expense, order payment by the corporation of
the shareholder's cost of suit including reasonable attorney
fees and may postpone the meeting for which the list was
prepared until the inspection or copying is complete.
(e) Refusal or failure to prepare or make available the
shareholders' list does not affect the validity of action taken
at the meeting.
