Latest version.
  • (a) The board of directors shall appoint one or more inspectors to act
      at  the  meeting  or  any  adjournment thereof and make a written report
      thereof. The board of directors may designate one  or  more  persons  as
      alternate  inspectors  to  replace any inspector who fails to act. If no
      inspector or alternate has been appointed, or if such persons are unable
      to act at a meeting of shareholders, the person presiding at the meeting
      shall appoint one or  more  inspectors  to  act  at  the  meeting.  Each
      inspector,  before entering upon the discharge of his duties, shall take
      and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector  at  such
      meeting  with  strict  impartiality  and  according  to  the best of his
      ability.
        (b) Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of  incorporation  or
      by-laws,  paragraph (a) of this section shall not apply to a corporation
      that does not have a class of voting stock that is listed on a  national
      securities  exchange  or  authorized  for  quotation  on  an interdealer
      quotation  system  of  a  registered  national  securities  association.
      Notwithstanding  the foregoing, any corporation may take the actions set
      forth in paragraph (a) of this section.
