17-16-863. Shareholders' action.| (a) Shareholders' action respecting a director's conflicting interest transaction is effective for purposes of W.S. 17-16-861(b)(ii) if a majority of the votes cast by the holders of all qualified shares are in favor of the transaction after:  (i) Notice to shareholders describing the action to be taken respecting the transaction;  (ii) Provision to the corporation of the information referred to in subsection (b) of this section; and  (iii) Communication to the shareholders entitled to vote on the transaction of the information that is the subject of required disclosure, or modified disclosure as described in W.S. 17-16-862(b) if the director's conflicting interest transaction is of the type described in that subsection, to the extent the information is not known by them.  (b) A director who has a conflicting interest respecting the transaction shall, before the shareholders' vote, inform the secretary or other officer or agent of the corporation authorized to tabulate votes, in writing, of the number of shares that the director knows are not qualified shares under subsection (c) of this section and the identity of the holders of those shares.  (c) For purposes of this section:  (i) "Holder" means and "held by" refers to shares held by both a record shareholder, as defined in W.S. 17-16-1301(a)(vi), and a beneficial shareholder as defined in W.S. 17-16-1301(a)(i);  (ii) "Qualified shares" means all shares entitled to be voted with respect to the transaction except for shares that the secretary or other officer or agent of the corporation authorized to tabulate votes either knows, or under subsection (b) of this section is notified, are held by:  (A) A director who has a conflicting interest respecting the transaction; or  (B) A related person of the director, excluding a person described in W.S. 17-16-860(a)(v)(F).  (d) A majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of all qualified shares constitutes a quorum for purposes of compliance with this section. Subject to the provisions of subsection (e) of this section, shareholders' action that otherwise complies with this section is not affected by the presence of holders, or by the voting, of shares that are not qualified shares.  (e) If a shareholders' vote does not comply with subsection (a) of this section solely because of a director's failure to comply with subsection (b) of this section, and if the director establishes that the failure was not intended to influence and did not in fact determine the outcome of the vote, the court may give the effect, if any, to the shareholders' vote, as the court considers appropriate in the circumstances.  (f) Where shareholders' action under this section does not satisfy a quorum or voting requirement applicable to the authorization of the transaction by reason of the articles of incorporation, the bylaws or a provision of law, independent action to satisfy those authorization requirements must be taken by the shareholders, in which action shares that are not qualified shares may participate.
