Record Date and Closing of Stock Books Sample Clauses

Record Date and Closing of Stock Books. The Board of Directors may fix a time in the future as a record date for the determination of the shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting of shareholders or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or distribution, or any allotment of rights, or to exercise rights in respect to any other lawful action. The record date so fixed shall not be more than sixty nor less than ten days prior to the date of the meeting or event for the purposes of which it is fixed.
