        490.720  SHAREHOLDERS' LIST FOR MEETING.
         1.  After fixing a record date for a meeting, a corporation shall
      prepare an alphabetical list of the names of all its shareholders who
      are entitled to notice of a shareholders' meeting.  The 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.
         2.  The shareholders' list must be available for inspection by any
      shareholder beginning two 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, or a shareholder's agent or attorney, is
      entitled on written demand to inspect and, subject to the
      requirements of section 490.1602, subsection 3, to copy the list,
      during regular business hours and at the person's expense, during the
      period it is available for inspection.
         3.  The corporation shall make the shareholders' list available at
      the meeting, and any shareholder, or a shareholder's agent or
      attorney, is entitled to inspect the list at any time during the
      meeting or any adjournment.
         4.  If the corporation refuses to allow a shareholder, or a
      shareholder's agent or attorney, to inspect the shareholders' list
      before or at the meeting, or copy the list as permitted by subsection
      2, 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 and may postpone the meeting
      for which the list was prepared until the inspection or copying is
      complete.
         5.  Refusal or failure to prepare or make available the
      shareholders' list does not affect the validity of action taken at
      the meeting.
