30-29-705. NOTICE OF MEETING. (a) A corporation shall notify shareholders of the date, time and place of each annual and special shareholders’ meeting no fewer than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the meeting date. If the board of directors has authorized participation by means of remote communication pursuant to section 30-29-709, Idaho Code, for holders of any class or series of shares, the notice to the holders of such class or series of shares must describe the means of remote communication to be used. The notice must include the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting if such date is different from the record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of the meeting. Unless this chapter or the articles of incorporation require otherwise, the corporation is required to give notice only to shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting as of the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to notice of the meeting. (b) Unless this chapter or the articles of incorporation require otherwise, the notice of an annual meeting of shareholders need not include a description of the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. (c) Notice of a special meeting of shareholders must include a description of the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. (d) If not otherwise fixed under section 30-29-703 or 30-29-707, Idaho Code, the record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at an annual or special shareholders’ meeting is the day before the first notice is delivered to shareholders. (e) Unless the bylaws require otherwise, if an annual or special shareholders’ meeting is adjourned to a different date, time, or place, notice need not be given of the new date, time, or place if the new date, time, or place is announced at the meeting before adjournment. If a new record date for the adjourned meeting is or must be fixed under section 30-29-707, Idaho Code, however, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given under this section to shareholders entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

A list must be arranged by voting group, and within each voting group by class or series of shares, and show the address of and number of shares held by each shareholder.

A shareholders’ list for voting shall be similarly available for inspection promptly after the record date for voting. A shareholder or the shareholder’s agent or attorney is entitled on written demand to inspect and, subject to the requirements of section 30-29-1602(c), Idaho Code, to copy a 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 list of shareholders entitled to vote available at the meeting, and any shareholder or the shareholder’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 shareholder or the shareholder’s agent or attorney to inspect a shareholders’ list before or at the meeting, or copy a list as permitted by subsection (b) of this section, the Idaho district court of the county where a corporation’s principal office is located, or, if none in this state, Ada county, on application of the shareholder, 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. (e) Refusal or failure to prepare or make available the shareholders’ list does not affect the validity of action taken at the meeting.

(d) Redeemable shares are not entitled to vote after delivery of written notice of redemption is effective and a sum sufficient to redeem the shares has been deposited with a bank, trust company, or other financial institution under an irrevocable obligation to pay the holders the redemption price on surrender of the shares.

(e) The death or incapacity of the shareholder appointing a proxy does not affect the right of the corporation to accept the proxy’s authority unless notice of the death or incapacity is received by the inspector of election or other officer or agent authorized to tabulate votes before the proxy exercises authority under the appointment. (f) An appointment made irrevocable under subsection (d) of this section is revoked when the interest with which it is coupled is extinguished. (g) Unless it otherwise provides, an appointment made irrevocable under subsection (d) of this section continues in effect after a transfer of the shares and a transferee takes subject to the appointment, except that a transferee for value of shares subject to an irrevocable appointment may revoke the appointment if the transferee did not know of its existence when acquiring the shares and the existence of the irrevocable appointment was not noted conspicuously on the certificate representing the shares or on the information statement for shares without certificates. (h) Subject to section 30-29-724, Idaho Code, and to any express limitation on the proxy’s authority stated in the appointment form or electronic transmission, a corporation is entitled to accept the proxy’s vote or other action as that of the shareholder making the appointment.
