(a) A membership nonprofit corporation shall notify members of the place, if any, date, and time of each annual, regular, or special meeting of the members no fewer than 10 nor more than 60 days before the meeting date. If the board of directors has authorized participation by means of remote communication pursuant to Section 10A-3A-7.09 for any class of members or voting group, the notice to that class of members or voting group must describe the means of remote communication to be used. The notice must include the record date for determining the members entitled to vote at the meeting, if that date is different from the record date for determining members entitled to notice of the meeting. Unless the certificate of incorporation requires otherwise, the membership nonprofit corporation is required to give notice only to members entitled to vote at the meeting as of the record date for determining the members entitled to notice of the meeting.
