Simple answer. Yes. |

More complex answer. For a bricks and mortar company, the AGM would |
22 |
be held with voters present in the room, so notice of the AGM and record |
23 |
date would be the same. |

Assembling in New Mexico or voting for trustees in IRC is inconvenient |
26 |
for a lot of members, so we have an extended electronic election. The |
27 |
10-60 days notice applies to the recording date too but its a set of |
28 |
different dates as the voting is moved out of the AGM. The vote for |
29 |
trustees formally being a part of the AGM. |

|

It follows that this applies to all votes of members for all meetings of |
32 |
members where the voting and meeting are decoupled in this way. |
