Tenn. Code Ann. § 48-17-107

Record date

Acts 1986, ch. 887, § 7.07.

(1) The bylaws may fix or provide the manner of fixing the record date for one (1) or more voting groups in order to determine the shareholders entitled to notice of a shareholders' meeting, to demand a special meeting, to vote, or to take any other action. If the bylaws do not fix or provide for fixing a record date, the board of directors of the corporation may fix a future date as the record date.

(2) A record date fixed under this section may not be more than seventy (70) days before the meeting or action requiring a determination of shareholders.

(3) A determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or vote at a shareholders' meeting is effective for any adjournment of the meeting unless the board of directors fixes a new record date, which it must do if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than four (4) months after the date fixed for the original meeting.

(4) If a court orders a meeting adjourned to a date more than four (4) months after the date fixed for the original meeting, it may provide that the original record date continues in effect or it may fix a new record date.
