• Art. 7: MEMBERS' MEETINGS AND VOTING

Text

(a) After fixing a record date for a notice of a meeting,
a corporation shall prepare an alphabetical list of the names of
all its members who are entitled to notice of the meeting. The
list shall show the address and number of votes each member is
entitled to vote at the meeting. The corporation shall prepare
on a current basis through the time of the membership meeting a
list of members, if any, who are entitled to vote at the
meeting, but not entitled to notice of the meeting. This list
shall be prepared on the same basis and be part of the list of
members.
(b) The list of members shall be available for inspection
by any member for the purpose of communication with other
members concerning the meeting, beginning two (2) business days
after notice is given of the meeting for which the list was
prepared and continuing through the meeting, at the
corporation's principal office or at a reasonable place
identified in the meeting notice in the city where the meeting
will be held. A member, a member's agent or attorney is
entitled on written demand to inspect and, subject to the
limitations of W.S. 17-19-1602(c) and 17-19-1605, to copy the
list, at a reasonable time and at the member's expense, during
the period it is available for inspection.
(c) The corporation shall make the list of members
available at the meeting, and any member, a member's 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 member, a
member's agent or attorney to inspect the list of members before
or at the meeting, or 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 member, may
summarily order the inspection or copying at the corporation's
expense and may postpone the meeting for which the list was
prepared until the inspection or copying is complete and may
order the corporation to pay the member's costs, including
reasonable counsel fees, incurred to obtain the order.
(e) Unless a written demand to inspect and copy a
membership list has been made under subsection (b) of this
section prior to the membership meeting and a corporation
improperly refuses to comply with the demand, refusal or failure
to comply with this section does not affect the validity of
action taken at the meeting.
(f) The articles or bylaws of a religious corporation may
limit or abolish the rights of a member under this section to
inspect and copy any corporate record.
