(a) A record stockholder may assert appraisal rights as to fewer than all the shares of stock registered in the record stockholder’s name but owned by a beneficial stockholder or a voting trust beneficial owner only if the record stockholder objects with respect to all shares of stock of a class or series owned by the beneficial stockholder or the voting trust beneficial owner and notifies the corporation in writing of the name and address of each beneficial stockholder or voting trust beneficial owner on whose behalf appraisal rights are being asserted. The rights of a record stockholder who asserts appraisal rights for only part of the stock held of record in the record stockholder’s name under this subsection shall be determined as if the stock as to which the record stockholder objects and the record stockholder’s other shares of stock were registered in the names of different record stockholders.
